yesterday's stew was a mixture of plus-es and
negatives.
in keeping with the concept of "accentuate the positive".....
we sold out the bingo board.-- and gay -- "heydawg's gay" is now the latest in
the shatupon club.
the fastest sh#tting ever--- hilary did not get the second
chicken out before the first had declared the winner---#7
***
santa-- was here---perfect santa-- we/mark got some great
pictures of our perfect dog bailey in the carriage seat with santa-- walked up
the ladder like she was going to church ( or to a tree limb for the calendar
shot)nice guy that santa-- can be found thru camera mark..
i heard he did a job once for a church where at the
midnight service he just quietly walked down the aisle to the alter, knelt for a
minute- then turned and walked out..-- whoever planned that was a
genius.
*****
mark's new toy of hot dog steamer worked
perfectly
**************
willow is feeling much better-- making me wonder if we should
be cutting her dosees... she ran around "A" yesterday and really didn't want to
come in.... she is playing with things-- dogs in pain do not play with things
like unrolling toilet paper-- or shreding newsprint.
************************************
on second thought i am not sure i want that other washer in
the house-- i think the feed room would be better. wherever it is -- dirty
laundry will accumulate-- and i think the house is stressed enough for
accomodating the dogs...-
****
we do need to get the white golf cart working
better
along with worming the pups-- just another one of those
maintanence chores that need looking into.
***
time to lock the pond gates shut til spring...- the
possibility of a dog going thru the ice haunts me... we had that happen once-
my screaming brought janine-- who i then shoved out on the thin ice ( scantily
clad i might add) to pull the dog out.
it was strange the dog kept trying to climb out from the
direction he's fallen in-- where if he turned around he could have walked
out.
so we chain the ponds shut all winter.
***********
poor janine--
then there was the time the roof of the house caught fire...
tom left to drive to the fire station... i screamed for janine and got a
ladder.. she appeared with a few--- but not many -- clothes on and climbed up
the ladder- which was too short to lean on the roof- but she made it- i handed
her the foam fire extinguisher and she did her thing. well--- that stuff is
slippery-- by the time the fire department clomped up the hill in their big
black boots- janine had the fire out- but the foam left her sliding around with
no ladder to get off the roof.
these things happen
**********
today's chores-- check up on the washer and
dryer..
for chicken sh#tting i must go over the
computer printerout and get the numbers to land getter on the little dots---
we were close-- i should fix it before i forget.
and work on getting the camera to rove in one unit without
wires drooping all over..
dry food scavenger hunts worked beautifully for the pups--
they are asleep again--- maybe that way we can feed them less and firm up the
stools
i had to get in that stool report
