Well we just recently finished the first semester. Geometry in a semester. Wow! That was fast! Teaching kept me so busy I haven't had much time for soapmaking, but I plan to change that. I plan to make some soap this year... and lots of it! :)
There won't be any updates on the tadpoles until after we have our new pond put in. It seems our pond wasn't very sturdy and disintegrated (or was damaged by a big bad crane!). So we lost our baby fish and two of our original fish. We panicked and I was so focused on getting the fish out of the pond that I didn't think about what was going on with them once they were out of my sight. We didn't acclimate them to the bath water temperature and we didn't adjust the water chemicals, so they didn't survive. I was thinking more clearly the second day when we discovered that we had four of the big fish laying on their sides in shallow muddy water and now they are in a tank in my daughter's room. Poor fishies, the tank is smaller than they are used to and they don't like it. But we are working on redoing the pond and they should be out there as soon as the weather is better.
I will get some pictures of the pond, the crane and the new tank up soon... I just haven't had much time since we are moving from the old school building to the new one now that finals are finished.
