Every few years I get the yearning for a donkey.
I’ve always wanted one.
Most women my age yearn for another baby.
I’ve never really cared for babies much.
Well …… I really liked the baby I had, but not enough to have another one.
I might feel that way about a donkey. I don’t know. I haven’t had one yet.
Meet “Romeo”. My friend’s donkey. He wants to re-home him.
My conversation with T.H. would go something like this:
Me: “I really want a little donkey.”
T.H.: “What?”
Me: “I want a donkey before I get any older.”
T.H.: “You’re already too old to have a donkey.”
Me: “A lot of women my age have donkeys.”
T.H.: “Donkeys live forever. You can’t kill them.”
Me: “Won’t it be nice to have a little friend in our old age?”
T.H.: “I don’t want to be in our 70’s still taking care of a donkey.”
Me: “It will keep us young.”
T.H.: “Who’s paying for this donkey?”
Me: “It’s a free donkey.”
T.H.: “If you get a donkey …. you’re paying for it!”
At this point, I would end the conversation.
Because we are right back where we ended up with the Porta-Potty.
The Donkey will appear and T.H. will never acknowledge it’s existence.

It is my strong hope that you become the new companion to a donkey. You deserve a donkey. I also love that his name is Romeo – a very appropriate donkey name. I, of course, am the contented companion to three donkeys myself.
i love donkeys, i always wanted one with a couple goats too! Hope you and Romeo grow old together!
Thanks Terri, I will probably get him.
I know that about you Cat. Made me want one more. Thanks. Terah
I just love donkeys too. They have the sweetest faces. It is good that you have horses, dogs, cats etc. They are pack animals too and must have company. Why am I telling you this? you know all this better than I. I am living vicariously through you. ha.. Just look at that sweet face. Even TH won’t be able to resist that.
