Been a stressful morning already because my lab mix Tara escaped but luckily we found her before I had to come to work. Its getting better though because my boss brought me and my coworker both these beautiful flowers from her garden. Pictures of the trouble maker and the beautiful flowers for your enjoyment!

Glad you found her
 
Good morning Smorgville, have a goodun out there.

It's going to have to wait another month or so before I can really squat down but it looks like it would be a good idea if I finally tried to get the L-brackets off the bottom side of my aquarium stand. I went to feed the LPS and jammed my toe pretty well on one of them.

you could temporarily get a pool noodle, slice it down the side and slip it over that till you get to it.

Good morning Tom! Beautiful set up, sorry about your toe. Did you have to call a toe truck?
