Loving the herd life
Yeah, but predatory, they know if you're getting a loan you need it and will pay the interest. The only reason I keep it in the bank is because I accrue a little interest, and my mattress won't!
ATM charges too, why do I have to pay $3 to get my own money out of the bank just because I don't have my banks ATM close to me? It would cost me $3 in gas to go all the way to town and back to hit an ATM from my bank and at least 45 minutes...convenience fee is right. I guess I need to plan on pulling out cash every month while I"m in town to make up for it, but you never know how much you'll need anyway.
We're off this morning to take Dixie to the vet to get her teeth done. Hope it all goes well. I test loaded her in the trailer the other day and she gets in easy so at least there's no trauma in that part. She's getting pretty big in the belly and looks like she's starting to bag up, so probably a month or less on having a new baby.
Now the question is, what is the new baby? I have no idea on a sire, as I got her and she was pregnant. Could even be a mule foal for all I know. I'm hoping it's a horse though. I've had no luck tracking down the previous owner, even though I have their home address. I googled it and the house recently sold and I can't find where they might have moved to to ask them about her. The guy that owned her was elderly so he might have died; I can't find an obituary but that doesn't mean anything either, my grandmother didn't have one.
I've debated calling their realtor and asking if they'd pass along a message with my phone number. I'm not sure if that's too pushy or not. Obviously they didn't want her since she went to auction and ended up at a slaughter lot, and maybe they don't care what happened to her. But, I know if I got in a position where that had to happen I'd want to know they got a good home.
