Goats are great for bartering...

I just can't stop shaking my head/laughing at this situation. I went to the dentist today and I mentioned I just had some kids born. My dentist was super excited and wants to get a couple does for his family...sooo, we are trading a couple doelings for some dental work I need to get done! LOL. So now I am going to be able to say I traded goats for a crown in my teeth! Hahahaha!!

I once traded a couple of goats for some major carpentry work. All is good.

I love my dentist, he is too cool. He said he knows another gal with goats that can't afford to pay her bill, so he always trades her for cheese and whatnot. (OH, I hope I'm not gonna mess that up for her by providing him goats with which to make cheese...uh oh...)

I think that's a great trade!

I traded a goat for a couple ricks of wood, it was great b/c neither of us had ready cash to buy with

I would say that with the cost of dentistry today...you are a very good trader/barter-er!!
As for the cheese making patient...well, he probably doesn't have time to make cheese with all those crowns he is installing!

LOL, maybe you are right, dozedotz! I'm giving him a few days to think on this decision before calling to schedule my appointment. I have great insurance, but still can't afford my dental work!

[dozedotz]

Yep! I hear you...I am still hanging on to most of my snags (my mom used to call old people teeth "snags") preferring to leave whatever we may have left to the children rather than the dentist!!!
