Back in September we had to move 
and move and move
Husband was clearing off our balcony and bringing everything to our house!!
We had some water features there, a waterfall, a big barrel of water that had a stone in the middle and a couple of little things.
The dogs
Izzy and Ellie, especially loved the barrel!!!
They would ONLY drink out of that, or the toilet. It was so dry last summer that the water dried up and it was just yucky brick water, I wouldn't let them touch it
Of course we had to bring the barrel with us to the house!! They needed their big drinking bowl.
It was so heavy, all the water had to be poured out
by Mr. T4W
As he was pouring it out, to his surprise, out came a fish!!! A black fish!!!
Mr. T4W had to hurry 
and catch him, put him back in the barrel
Now what? Bring the fish to the new house of course, we couldn't just dump him.
So, Mr. T4W broke his back bringing the barrel full of water to the house, saving that
I never had a fish before, so I thought, ~well, he lived this long in there, in that awful brick water, he must be eating something, I don't want to mess up and have him die!~~
Every day I walked by the barrel and felt
that poor fish But he must be okay, right? 
My mind is a sieve, I thought I had told the Wingettes about lonely fish. It was getting so cold here. One day I vocalized my concern about the fish to one of the Wingettes!
She was all like
you never told me!!!
She was horrified!
Then I was all.....
now what? Wingette asked ~~Did you tell Wingette2?~~~ @SamatranTiger
NO, I didn't!
Tell her she said!!!!
I :ran: to FB and said "Wingette, we have a fish here, we need fish food, STAT"
It didn't dawn on me the gravity of the situation!
Wingette2 @SamatranTiger came early with fish food in hand and plans to rescue fish.
now said fish is someone else's problem.
Apparently Wingette2 @SamatranTiger is a fish fan!?!?!?!
So, off she troops home with a in a bag
Now, I just sit back and watch
Her friend brought a little tank that night and
sat there.
What kind of fish is it?
A comet fish!!!
How did the fish get in the barrel
Maybe when we had a plant in the barrel, 3 or so years ago, there was an egg on it?!?!
How did fish live that long in a big dog drink bowl? He must have been so
and 
all the time
What should we name fish?
@JosienBB suggested PIP of course after a T4W thing
How much should Wingette2 @SamatranTiger spend on Pip??
LOTS and LOTS and LOTS!!!
PIP now has a giant tank, waterfalls, good food, and he is a happy GOLD FISH
not black fish
Maybe @SamatranTiger will share some pics of the famous Pip, if you ask nice.
Three
for @SamatranTiger for coming to the rescue!!!

We definitely need pix! 
That was a great post! 
I'm so glad Pip was adopted into a wonderful home! I hope we get to see him soon!
