It was so close and so far away!
I read very f...Oh. It was so close and so far away!<br />I read very fast, for I thought Phsyche was the name you gave to the bee, like Psycho, but yes, I know that myth, and the other pair of names of those goats you sold are fun and great names for animals. I'm with you. It makes sense. <br />I grew up in the city without animals. My husband's sister is nuts about animals, the same as her daughter. Now I'm realizing all the animals they've had, and we inherited one of those, have not had people names.<br />Our cat that died was Turkish, because our niece thought he looked like a cat from Turkey, with green eyes and gray fur. Our dog now is Chip, as in a chocolate chip, that's how his first owner called him because he looked like one.<br />Anyway, mythological names go great with goats, and I like what you say that they put pagan gods in their place!Silviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17249978624747684879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5144372.post-46811493704590777472011-07-21T08:58:03.259-05:002011-07-21T08:58:03.259-05:00sounds like a very good day :-)sounds like a very good day :-)Dana in Georgiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11973506073487871220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5144372.post-18154220978805125122011-07-20T20:28:26.906-05:002011-07-20T20:28:26.906-05:00Okay, those of you who have underage kids or who l...Okay, those of you who have underage kids or who live in bizarre time zones (like, oh, say, Pacific) are excused.<br />;-)Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16618197716777772631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5144372.post-56903309849794205172011-07-20T20:18:04.774-05:002011-07-20T20:18:04.774-05:00I *wish* I had someone old enough to take the CiRC...I *wish* I had someone old enough to take the CiRCE classes.

It's a wonderful resource.<br /><br />Psyche is a beautiful white goat. She and her brother were born on Valentine's day 2006, and we wanted to give them appropriate* names. We called him Cupid so of course we had to call her Psyche (that's my favorite of the Greek myths, and probably the only one with a happy ending!). We used to have a pair of her kids (also beautiful white -- in goats, white is the dominant color) that were born on a Thursday, so we named them Thor and Sif. We had to sell them, though.<br /><br />*An appropriate name for a <i>goat</i>, anyway, which for me means Not a Name I Would Give a Child. Names that put pagan gods in their places (even the ones whose stories I love) are especially good. :-)Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16618197716777772631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5144372.post-78625495451026584292011-07-20T17:28:55.427-05:002011-07-20T17:28:55.427-05:00I know I must be very dumb... but what is CIRCE?

Our life is much more prosaic and urban, but I'm learning to be content with it.<br /><br />Your description of your 11 year old is very sweet. I can picture him with the jeans and boots, and the name, Psyche, ;)<br /><br />hugsSilviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17249978624747684879noreply@blogger.com
