New Year's soak a total bust



Ok, I was good to start out the New Year. I did my 15 minutes of soaking in the blue soaking pan. Here's actual photo evidence that my cloaka was underwater. But I weighed 3166 grams before I soaked, and I weighed 3166 grams after. So my tortoise mom will call Dr. Johnson to ask if he thinks it's still worth disturbing me every two weeks to soak when I'm just not taking in any water. Between you and me, I really hope he says no. Besides, it's clear my weight is stable. I'm just not taking in water to increase it.



It was 54 degrees inside my burrow today, but 81 degrees outside. They tried not to disturb me but I woke up and looked all around, wondering why they keep waking me up when I just want to stay in my nice, dark, cool burrow. So I'm back in my favorite corner of the burrow, hoping I don't have to get soaked in another two weeks. Dr. Johnson, please let me off the hook! Your friend, Grandma
