Apartment update
Right now I am settled in with my apartment. It is nice to finally have my own place. Its kind of funny to think how big the apartment was before I moved in and now seeing it with all my junk in it is something.

It’s Raining Nieces and Nephews

Well there are more babies coming, both my sister and my sister in-law are having babies early next year. Last week found out that my brother will  be having another girl. However we don’t know about my sister’s one yet but, I am thinking she might actual have a puppy knowing her. But still boy, girl or man pupp the beginning of the year will be pretty busy.

Looking for a Pet
For a  while now I been wanting a pet. Now that I have my own place and a job (i.e. money)  I been getting more serious about getting one. I am looking at a cherry head tortoise. I been doing a lot of research on them and the other breeds  of tortoises  and feel that a cherry head would be a nice fit for me. I always like turtles growing up but, what kid for from the late 80’s didn’t like turtles . My first pet was a red ear slider and actually my last pet was also a red ear slider too.

I have to say although I really like turtles they are a hard pet to take care of. Just  maintaining a large aquarium is a pain. That is one of the reasons I started looking at tortoises. Once the weather cools off a little (like below 100° degrees). I’ll start building the housing. Online I been finding people that made their own “tortoise table”. I really like the ideal and want to try building one but, instead have it as table I would make more of a cabinet so I can store the tortoise supplies in there in attempt to kept everything nice and clean.
