Gracie? I think not!
First if all, to answer the last poll question, Andrew did indeed get 2 goldfish for Christmas (valued by Meijer at 19 cents each, and guaranteed to live for a week!). When asked what their names were, he replied, "Gracie and......Lisa!" This of course upset Sylvia. But she was assured that the fish would die soon and that the next replacement would be named Sylvia. (By the way, no idea whatsoever where the name Lisa came from - cute preschooler?).
Well, here is the funny - and sad! - part. A week went by (Wednesday was their 1 week birthday), and our new family members were thriving. Getting ready to leave for the weekend (Pokagon - more pictures of that later), Laura asked some friends to watch our fish. We usually watch their dogs when they leave town. It was mostly a funny way to have someone watch our fish.
As you can guess, Laura picked them up from our friends (who shall remain nameless until the lawsuit goes through!) and we soon realized Gracie was no more! She used to have a small black dot on her tail, which was now gone and she was slightly bigger now. This was not Gracie! Imposter!
Funny thing is, our "friends" mentioned nothing about it. Hmm. Sounds fishy to me!
More on this case later.
