Well, the extreme weather here in Chicago has claimed it's first Eppinette victim. Jelly, our girl betta, died yesterday after just not being able to tolerate the cold anymore. Bettas are natives of places like Thailand where it is hot and humid (my preference, as well) and as much as we tried to keep our apartment warm and humid, one can only do so much when the wind chill outside is minus 29!! She had been sick for a couple days, and I did the best to nurse her back to health as I had a couple of months ago.
So this post is in memory of Jelly, even though I promised here after I received them for Mother's Day last year that I would only post about our fish once. Peanut Butter, our boy betta, is very sad, and I'm hoping he can stay healthy and last the winter. And while I know she was "just a fish", I'm very sad as well.
