Weekly Rambling #64

By SouthernStar71 | SouthernStar71 | 9 Mar 2025


Hello everyone.

This ramble is on a Sunday instead of a Saturday. I was busy yesterday at the normal time I type this up. In 3 weeks time it might again be on a Sunday instead of Saturday.

Yesterday I attended the Bluegrass Fish Keepers Association Spring Fish Swap Meet. I was able to get 10 CPD's and a pair of FFF. The CPD's are Celestial Pearl Danios(also referred to as the Galaxy Rasbora). The FFF is the Florida Flag Fish. I also purchased an automatic egg collector to setup in the tanks of the CPD's. 

When I got home I placed an Amazon order for some Gorilla Super Glue Gel and a Fluval Breeder Box. The breeder box will combine with the egg collector to make collecting the CPD eggs automatic. The Super Glue Gel is for attaching plants to rocks. I will use at least one to hopefully entice the CPD's to spawn over the egg collector. These items are due to arrive Monday, but I won't be surprised if they are Tuesday getting here. 

Did have a wind storm recently that blew off some fascia from a portion of the roof. I have a roofer coming to look at it Monday. Hopefully he will be able to get to the repair quickly and that it won't be too expensive. He has done some work before and it fixed the issue and wasn't too expensive.

I tried a Mould King set and gave up on it rather quickly. LEGO has me spoiled as their sets assemble easily and I seem to prefer how they work. Also, I really like the BrickHeadz that they do. Not much else they make resonates to me. I have purchased more than BrickHeadz from them but don't have a theme where I buy everything they make. I haven't gone down the city route as I'm not keen on spending what I would spend setting a city up. Also, it just doesn't speak to me. Not saying I will never do a LEGO city, but something major would have to change.

I'm still hodling my crypto. Even with BTC dipping recently. I'm a bit lucky in that I mostly have stuff in the top 15. Makes hodling a bit easier. I don't trade looking to time buying and selling. I haven't bought or sold in a good while. I do "play" some crypto related games to pass the time. Those aren't going to make me rich.

I do play phone games for Swagbucks.  Those SB are turned into Amazon Gift Cards which currently I use for fish related stuff. The Super Glue and the Breeder Box were paid for with AGC I got thru SB. Basically I am turning my time playing phone games into "free" stuff from Amazon. I do have Amazon Prime. I am able to have it at a reduced rate since I get SNAP benefits. 

Hope everyone has a nice Sunday. See you next Saturday.
