And so ends the first week. We do have some small visitors who've taken up temporary residence in the laundry room for the summer. On Tuesday I lugged home the 20 gallon fishtanks from the two 4th grade classrooms along with the bagged up assorted guppies, danios, algae eaters, tetras, etc and all their fish paraphernalia. I shouldn't be surprised by how many hours it took to get everything hauled home and set up, but I was. However, we now have the two side-by-side tanks on a bench along the wall and the fish seem pleased by the change of view.
When I was all finished, I dried my hands and stood and watched the fish glide about the tanks. I was satisfied for about three minutes. Then, at the three minute mark, it occurred to me that I'd be doing this all over again, in reverse, in a month and a half when school starts again. I need a break.
