I am the proud mama to 10, make that 6, I mean 4, now 14 and nope, today it is 12 goldfish.
I volunteered to be the Fish Fairy for Braden's classroom. They are studying fish in class and each table has a bowl with a goldfish in it. They are dropping like flies so Braden's teacher needs me to bring in new fish each day. Braden's school starts at 9:00 and the pet store is 15 minutes away and opens at 9:00 and why not buy the night before? The fish die after an hour or two in the plastic bag sooooo I had to purchase a tank to hold them in. So, now we have pet goldfish. They're really quite cute. All 5 of us love them. At first I had this huge pit of dread in my stomach and I wondered what I got myself into. But so far it's really not a big deal. I like to watch them as much as the kids do. To save myself a trip I had DJ purchase the second batch of 10 after work. He came home with a bag of rocks to cheer up the fish and make it more homey for them! Angela, if you read this.......I really would take your fish for you! I haven't lost one at home yet. All the fish I've sent to the classroom have been healthy and vibrant!

After reading the first part, I thought that you were the one killing them off. I was going to suggest you try a houseplant. :)
You are welcome to have them. Let me know how to get them to you. I'm not kidding!!!
We sure miss you.
