It is indeed a small world, and fate/coincidence have been in play lately...
Take for instance Carlos! the newest addition to our herd.
I was killing team before our team penning AGM and happened to see an ad on a bulletin board advertising a free donkey to an approved home. Turns out Carlos had been rescued by the couple (LJK) we bought our acreage from and they had him far enough along to rehome him (Nell & I decided to make his name officially Carlos! with the exclamation point cuz that's how we roll lol)
Nell went with me to pick up Carlos! and while we were chatting it turned out the lady (LK) was looking for some laying hens but wasn't having any luck finding any. Well *I* just happened to have gotten some new hens but I had a few more than I wanted, so we made a deal and she was going to come buy the rest of them! Perfect timing too because I wanted to move the older hens out of the redneck coop so that I could move the youngsters into the redneck coop.
It sure was neat visiting with LJK when they came to pick up the hens. We walked around and showed them the changes we had made, got some more history and info about things from when this was their place and had a good visit.
Then Saturday night L'il Bit had her kittens! (sometime between 2:15pm when I went to work and 12:30am when I got home) By Monday all her babies have homes waiting for them... less than two days old and without even trying to find homes! Although Pie is trying to convince me to keep one instead of giving it away lol
funny how things work out, I think its kinda cool when stuff like that happens.
ReplyDeleteice when things come together so nicely
ReplyDeleteI love when things just seem to fall into place like that. Sure makes up for the times when it seems like we're paddling upstream. :-)
