I have lost...
I think we should rename you..."The Cow Whisperer" or Donna St. Cowsaver
:-) Interesting stories! I can just picture an annoyed farmer being called about his stuck cow. Nosey neighbor lady. KJ "Donna973" wrote in message ... I found a cow once. Unfortunately I found it giving birth outside my bedroom window (the cow, not me, you smart alecks!). Not something you want to wake up to. Mama and baby were fine and we had our friendly farmer neighbor show them the way back home. Another time I found a little yearling cow (no idea what they're called) stuck in a tree. Somehow it had gotten it's head stuck into the fork of a tree and couldn't back out. I don't know how long the little guy was there before I found him. He was on his own property, just over the fence from ours. I couldn't get him out and was afraid he'd break his neck. Cow wrangling is not a skill I have. So I went to find my friendly farmer neighbor (not his cow), but he wasn't home, so I went to try to find the owner of said cow. He wasn't living on the property at the time, but luckily I tracked him down. He was definitely not a friendly farmer. He didn't believe me when I told him about his little cow stuck in the tree. I finally convinced him (if I hadn't been so worried about the cow, I would have told him exactly what I thought of his attitude), and he and his worker buddy grudgingly followed me to the cow. They had to saw the tree limb off to free the cow, and he appeared to be fine, scampering off to find the rest of the herd. -- Donna973 There is no MAYBE in my reply address "NightMist" wrote in message ... I lost a cow once. The neighbor lady found it in her apple orchard and let me know where it was. Fortunately I got it home before the parental units got home. Goats are much easier to lose.

I have some cow print somewhere. 'Big' cow print. I wanted to put a black and white kitty on my latest baby quilt. The quilt had to settle for a tiger-striped kitty. Since I'm a card-carrying fuss budget about putting things away carefully, I just can't imagine where the cows have wandered off to. Polly |

Quick, every one of you just go check the microwave. I understand it hides

He has a lovely goatee instead of the long full gray beard. Suffice the coffee was stone cold and could have permanently etched the mug if it wasn't etched already. -georg |

In the years I have know him, DH's beard has gone from almost all black to almost all white, his hair has receeded in Shakespearean manner, but his waistline has remained almost exactly the same! -- Kate XXXXXX R.C.T.Q Madame Chef des Trolls Lady Catherine, Wardrobe Mistress of the Chocolate Buttons http://www.katedicey.co.uk Click on Kate's Pages and explore! |

...a length of fabric. 10m long, 60+ inches wide, heavy furnishing stuff that is a greenish blue denimy sort of colour on one side and black on the other. Anyone seen it? If it's gone feral, I shall swear! There's nothing to do but go buy more. It will then magically appear. I lost my 27mm rotary cutter last year. I looked and looked for that thing and couldn't find it anywhere. Finally broke down and bought a new one. Sure enough I found the old one in my car's glove box. What it was doing in there I have no idea. lol -- Jeri "Change is inevitable, except from vending machines." |
