Small small world. I bought a vase off a woman who had it listed on CL. She wanted to meet in the parking lot of a popular restaurant. She asked me if I collected the pottery the vase was made of. I told her no I was buying the vase because of the goldfish decorating it. The woman told me she was taking care of her 92 year old aunt, trying to slowly empty the house. She said her aunt had a goldfish pond, she needed to rehome the fish. She did not want to put them on CL, she knew people used goldfish as food for another pets ( feeder fish) She said I could have them free. last night I went to get them. The house was very sad you could see it was beautifully landscaped at one time. Every thing was over grown. As the lady and I where tiring to net the fish, she started telling me about her dogs. She mentioned that she adopted a rare breed who was 9 years old from her vet. She just lost him after having him 9 years. I said the dogs name wasn't oliver , she looked very surprised and said yes, I said the owners name Jennifer ? Again she looked surprise and said yes. I told her he was a client for 9 years came in every Wed for grooming. I was able to give her a lot of information on her dog's past. Small small world. I am going back this weekend for some plants and to visit my new friend
So I just bid it a fond farewell. Son wears the double knee work pants. HE is very hard on them. They last 3 to 4 times longer than the Dickeys and other brands that are less expensive. YES Mom buys him a new pair for Christmas or Birthday every few years.
