Bob's Corner....

[Bobby]

Half my water is down, still need to take my vitamins.

Food has been cleaner than it has been so far. No junk food. Still ate too many baby carrots to be induction, but then I'm going to work back into it.

[dusk]

Hi Bobbo!

Okay . . . I'm going to get serious tomorrow. . .

[Bobby]

Cool! I'm looking forward to some good news from ya

Took most of my vitamins, just have the D3 left to take later after my dinner digests. Still drinking water.

[dusk]

because I saw that you took your vitamins last night, I remembered to take my nightly meds. Thanks.

[Bobby]

Excellent news D!

I didn't eat well at all yesterday and today isn't starting out very well either. I had probably half a doven doghnuts and the only protein was 4 eggs and some cheese she made me in the afternoon. I didn't take my viatmins or meds and only drank part of a one liter bottle of water, half? I'll do alot better today, I shouldn't be so busy.

We dug the pond and set the liner. It's full of water and in a couple of days we'll start putting in plants.

I need to go grocery shopping later today. That's about it.

[dusk]

Yeah, well, I had a bad weekend too . . . I'm determined to have a great week, though. I hope your new week goes just as well.

[Bobby]

Vitamins, meds and water in mostly. I've drank two liters so far and plan on drinking at least another liter later. Ohh and I need to take my fish oil.

[Bobby]

Put up a couple of hangers so she could put her hummingbird feeders and finished staking down the pond liner.

Drank half a liter of water on the way in. I still have to take my vitamins and will be drinking plenty of water thru the night. I'll post more later after I've taken my vitamins.

Hey mimi!!

[Bobby]

vitamins taken, so far 81 ounces of water in and some coffee.

Fairly low carb today.

Breakfast (1:30pm): two bacon egg and cheese sandwiches on whole wheat bread.

went back to sleep before going to work.

Next meal (6pm) 12 ounces of cottage cheese

Next: 8pm 1 Package of raddishes

Next: 10:30pm 4 meat loaf patties with cheese on top (they have egg, oatmeal, hamburger, salt and pepper in them) mustard on the side

Next: 1am all the vitamins

I'll eat the last of the meat patties before I go home and that will be it.

Hey Lei!

Well I did pretty good until I got home and had some cookies before going to sleep. I need to stop that.

Anyway I had one bacon, egg and cheese sandwich for breakfast this afternoon instead of two washed down with black coffee. I haven't had any water yet today. I drank 112 ounces yesterday along 4 cups of coffee. So of course I woke up ever two hours to go pee today. I probably should ease back into drinking water.

I'll post more later....

[dusk]

Just cut back on the water a few hours before bed . . . that should do it. . .

[Bobby]

Yep, I'm going to do that for sure

[nenniebelle]

hey buddy
im here lurking...reading ya stuff everyday...
hows the pond lookin?
huggs...

[Bobby]

Hey nennie

The pond doesn't look like much yet, we still need to put some rock edgeing around it and finish the landscape around it. I'm going to pick up a sacrificial gold fish in the morning to test the water before buying some koi. We have a water iris in it now and will pick up a water lilly when we get the koi. I'll post up some pictures tomorrow after I get some sleep.

[Bobby]

Well, I took most of my vitamins (I didn't take the fish oil or vitamin d3) and only drank 1 liter of water and alot of coffee. I haven't had much of an appetite. I ate the beef patties with mustard on the side and had 6-8 ounces of cheese. I didn't eat my spinache and not likely to today. Just not interested in food right now. I'll most like drink another 1/2 liter of water before going to bed.

I hope everyone has a great, fun filled day!

Poor lil goldfish! But seriously, this just cracked me up for some reason! Swim lil goldfish, swim!!!!!!

[Bobby]

So far so good with the fish. He's swimming around the pond and isn't doing the backstroke, so that's a good sign

We added three more bags of pond rock to the bottom so it's pretty murky. We also got some anachrist, pond salt and dechlorinator. It should be cleared up in a couple of hours and I'll take some pictures of hopefully the fish swimming around. He's pretty cool, I decided to get a 6 inch gold fish instead of a small bait fish. It has pretty big fins and just looked cool, I hope it makes it.

*Squeellllll*
I your lil pond, swim lil goldy, swim!!!!
What did you use for the base? Are you going to put something over the black tarp thing now?? I can't wait to see the finished project!! I have wanted a pond in like forever, and your pictures are inspiring me to get off my butt and get me one done!

Great job Bobby!!!

[Bobby]

Thanks Lei

We used a 45 mil EPDM pond liner for the base. I think we're going to wait until we have the edging down along the edge of the pond, before covering the fabric mulch with cyprus mulch. That's going to have to wait until I work another overtime day You should put one in, they're pretty cool.

[nenniebelle]
