I recently read a post here about someone's UPS man informing them that some of their neighbors had chickens and one was keeping a cow in the garage. I was sharing this with one of my daughters and it got me wondering if there were such a thing as minature cows, so I did a search and found some. They are adorable but VERY pricey.
This past weekend we put an offer in on a house and they accepted the offer. It's on 1/2 acre so I know that with everything I want to do there's no room for a cow, minature or otherwise! Later that day I was talking to my other daughter and mentioned the post I read and how I found out there are minature cows. Well.... yesterday my DH decided to visit her before they had to leave to head back home and of course she mentioned to him that I want a minature cow. He said what the HE double hockey sticks do I need a cow for? She said I don't know, but you could keep him in the garage.
When I got off work I called him and before he said anything I could hear the kids playing in the background and then I hear "mooooo". I asked him what the heck he was doing and he said I'm looking for a cow for you. Of course I cracked up because I Knew he wasn't doing any such thing.
Later when he was back at the hotel he called and the conversation went something like this...
DH: "Do I need a cow?"
Me: "I don't know, do you?"
DH:"NO!"
Me: laughing, trying to explain how it all got started... finishing with "they are soooooo cute, they are black and white like Stanley (our dog), and they are about the same size as him, they'd be so cute together."
DH: "Why do I need a cow?"
Me: "You don't need a cow, do you?
DH: "NO!"
Me: " Me either, I don't want a cow, but they are cute."
DH: "We aren't getting a cow"
Me: "Good, cuz I don't WANT a cow, I'm just saying they are out there and they are cute!"
DH: *sigh*
Despite my best attempts to reassure him I don't want a cow and that a post here prompted the whole thing he's still convinced I that in addition to chickens I also want a cow! LOL... NO I don't want a cow, but I am thinking about 2 pygmy goats! I think the grandkids would love them. But I think I'll wait awhile to break that to him!
