Cleaning the Fish Tank

I did something this morning that I’ve been telling myself I needed to do for weeks, perhaps months. Cleaned the aquarium. This involves a siphon and a tube that runs over the side and into a bucket. It vacuums up goldfish waste. What a surprise that I don’t get around to it too often.

But every time I’ve walked up or down the stairs in recent weeks, I’ve looked at that tank and thought: Gotta do that!

Bold would be to do it when it first came to mind,when it was first needed. At the same time, what a nice feeling that I get to walk upstairs tonight and congratulate myself on having gotten it done.

I dare you to tackle one of your own fish-tank-type chores.
