An Odd Coincidence

I have this rosemary bush in the back garden that was planted I guess 5 years ago.  It is the only thing that thrives out in the back 40 because of the tides.  We live on what is called the Coburg Marsh and when it storms or the moon is full or there is no moon or when it feels like it the tide comes up into the yard. 

I decided that in order to keep the rosemary bush healthy I need to keep trimming it but being who I am, I can't just trim it, the rosemary must be used so I am on  kick to try to give away as much as I can.  One of the kids at work was recently the victim of a drive by rosemarying.  She did not actually receive it just because, we were discussing the bush/tree and she had commented that her Mom wanted some.  How perfect was that?  I had a rosemary victim and plenty to give her.  So...Monday morning at 0 dark thirty (I had to be at work at 5 am and had forget to go out back before that) out I trekked trying to avoid any of the gifts Bear leaves out in the back yard and cut a large bunch from the bush.  I awarded it to the young lady and I thought that was the end of that.

A few days pass and next thing I know it is Wednesday (where the heck does the time go).  In comes the young lady to close with me and she has a surprising tale to relate.  She gave her Mom the rosemary, her Mom made dinner with it and was relating the story of the rosemary to her boss at work. Somehow, someway, through some sort of a strange coincidence it turns out that the boss is..........JuJu.  One of the wonderful people who blogs here on Blogspot and who's writing and pictures I enjoy.  Odder still is the fact that JuJu married this young lady and that she is the person who will be taking care of the house while JuJu heads on her next adventure.

    1. It makes perfectly good sense to me! JuJu officiated at the young ladies wedding....perhaps that would have been a better choice of words!

  2. ooooh, okay. I was like... "mom's co-worker is married to her mom's female boss? I didn't think they did that yet in SC..."

    But then, I'm easily confused. It happens.
