Ah, blogger is back up, good.
So, I have a sick fish. He's been moping around in the corner for about two weeks now, not eating when I feed the others or anything. He didn't have any other signs of anything being wrong untill last night. His gills were red and a little swollen and he moved over by the filter return.
So today I set up my hospital tank for him (it's a one gal tank with gravel filter that I keep around for quarentine of new fish, hospital purposes, nursery purposes, and for when I do a full cleaning of the big tank.) and put in a little bit of aquarium salt to help him to heal. He is already seeming much happier, I hope he will recover well.
I also did a 50% water change in the main tank, just to get anything out of it that may have caused this to happen. The other four fish seem quite fine though, even the one thats the same kind as the sick one (black skirted tetra).
Well, I did get to sleep this morning about 4am when the neighbours finally turned off their music.... And got up at 9:15 this morning. I'm sleepy.
Church went well though. The service worked out well and tied into the sermon. It's always nice when that happens even when we havn't planned it! I did some tweaking on the high and low range volume on the organ wednesday and it sounded better today. Also friday I got the capacitor ordered at last for the other amp, so we will have all three chans back and the low will feed to the low speakers only like it's supposed to do. Good stuffs.
Today I planned the order for the Christmas program next Sunday which will consist of two Choir anthems, a few solos, some fiddle playing, the children singing three numbers, and a couple of congregational songs. I need to design the program still but that shouldn't take too long. I also have roughly planned the morning service for the 21st, and will add in some stuff for the evening and be done with my last two weeks of planning at this church.
Packing has not gone well at all. Actually... I havn't done any packing since the second day I worked on it. It's just been a mess strewn about my room since then. Tomorow I must get on that! Nothing else is going on much untill I move except for Christmas program at the church (I need to figure out what I'm going to cook for the pot-luck that afternoon!) and playing with the handbell group from Carey at the Church of the Nazaren.
My time in Hattiesburg is winding down...
After the Christmas program aturday night I went to a movie with Nathan Dodd and some of the theatre people. Nathan and I got in free because he knows the manager at the theater. I was glad I didn't pay money to see Elf. If you really want to see it wait untill next Christmas and trick someone into renting it so you don't have to pay money to see it. I wouldn't pay anything to see it. It wasn't terrible or anything, it just wasn't good. Very little made me laugh. There was ONE section that was a bit spoofy of the Ring Wraiths from LOTR, and that made me laugh. But that's really all. Jimbo, however, laughed at quite a lot, quite loudly. That, at least, was funny.
Alright, well enough boring details about my life. I'm going to take a short nap before I head to church!
