Red Wrigglers, the Cadillac of worms! Are all of our fishies in the dark today? The mysterious workings of Amazon made the postman deliver a bunch of filter packs for our aquariums, but a bulb for one of the tanks is coming by UPS, even though it was on the same order. Did I ever mention how much I hate insurance companies when they meddle and interfere with doctorsā€™ orders? Rather than shaving some cost off of hugely expensive things like a PET scan, they nickel and dime you and say you can only have twelve anti-nausea pills every 15 days. I should send DH to CVS Caremarkā€™s headquarters to barf on them. ---

Some of us may want to go watch. šŸ˜ƒ Ok, if Red Wrigglers are the Cadillac of Worms, then those little brown earthworms all over everywhere are what, the Ford Pinto of worms? Welcome **wormie or caddie**! Home from da cave. Tonightā€™s dindin is whatever is beinā€™ served over to the church house. I think itā€™s veggie soup. Iā€™m bringinā€™ pimento cheese sammiches.

Maybe I could take it all out and see if I can cannibalise an old lid to refit it, but a) I donā€™t have a spare unit, and b) my electrical engineering level is pretty much limited to re-wiring plugsā€¦ My fishy tank light is working, and growing algae all over the place- this is my new axolotl tank. ---

> [@Red\_Wiggler](#): > > ā€œThe Cadillac of Worms!ā€ How many of us know the jingle that goes with that slogan? Or where it came from? šŸ˜ƒ Supper tonight will be miscellaneous veggies with grilled cheese sammiches on the side. Tomorrow, Iā€™m trying Mushroom Chicken Piccata from a recipe I found at AllRecipes dot com. Weā€™ll see how that goes. Weā€™ve got a plan for the potential sequester. Since weā€™d be potentially limited to 4 days a week, weā€™ll take Firday off on one week and the next Monday off, giving us alternating 2-day and 4-day weekends. Yay! Of course, I may end up with every day off - we shall wait and see. Um, thatā€™s all Iā€™ve got.
