Phone pictures of the fishchildren

We got our new fishies for FHE on Monday.  We haven't named them yet - we just can't commit to any names.  Jack wants Tendril, Conan, and Shannon, but I'm not allowing that.

The fishes and I were alone today while Jack was at work, school, inner tuber water polo, and church basketball.  I stayed home, wrote paper after paper, tended to the office, and tried to get the fish to eat. They were just too dumb to realize where the food was. Then I figured out how to take family pictures together.  The little dweebs were hardly cooperative, but for phone pics shot through a fishbowl they turned out pretty cool.

And I made this shirt all by myself in sewing class!  I only got an 87 on it, but what the heck. Jack says I look like a waitress and tried to order pancakes from me today, ha. I was going to save this fabric for a skirt, which I think it is better suited for, but money and stuff, ya know? I was just trying to use up what I had instead of buying new.  It looks pink in the picture, but it's actually red and white threads woven together. We used kind of a frumpy pattern, but I made it longer and slimmer so it wasn't so boxy. It's growing on me. And it was good to learn!
