Wow…Long time, no see?

How long has it been since I’ve written? Too long.

So much has happened… 18 days ago I turned 12 for the first time in my life. Last week Haniya got her braces off, which was very, very, very exciting for her! She has perfect teeth now and smiles a lot bigger now (Just kidding! ). I’m doing pretty good with my own braces… I had 4 repositioned brackets (the bracket is popped off then moved to a different position on the same tooth) last week so I’m pretty sore from that — those 4 teeth are being tugged in a different and completely new direction so it causes a bit of soreness. But I’m mostly over that now.

On my birthday, I also caught 1 fence lizard, and shortly after that, another. They’re both living happily in one of my spare tanks and ate for me for the first time 3 days ago (a meal of entirely delicious pill bugs and beetles! YUM YUM! ). It was exciting and relieving. Names: Flint (female) & Steel (male). I’ll post pics soon!

My rats are doing brilliantly… I’ve had one litter of 12 pups already (which were unfortunately marked “snake food”). Another  litter is on it’s way (expected in the next few days). Excited about that! Pictures coming soon from the previous litter also.

The fish… I had one die a month or two ago so a new green glofish joined the crew. He has been named, “Mr. Green” and recently got married to “Darla”, the pink glofish. That’s basically all in the fish realm. Although I could mention that I moved the fish tank out into the family room (was previously in my bedroom) because the noise of the filter was finally getting to me after almost a year and a half. Very happy about the move and all my family gets to enjoy the fish now, now that they’re out in one of the main rooms instead of my bedroom!

Apple, my corn snake (named QT before I switched her name), is growing and has shed twice since I got her. Not sure how long she is exactly… Here’s a pic (that I edited ) of her:

Well that’s all for the moment… I’m exhausted. It’s been a long day! Talk to you all later…
