December 4, 2012




I HAVE SPENT THE LAST HOUR TRYING TO FIGURE OUT AMAZON'S WISH LIST  AND HOW TO GET SOME ITEMS ON IT...
LIKE DOG DISHES-- I WAS FINALLY SUCCESSFUL-- HAD TO BE SPECIFIC  SO THEY FIT IN OUR VARIOUS HOLDERS--   9 AND 1/2 INCH DIAMETER--- 3 QUART----FITS IN THE WHITE BUCKETS AND MANY OF OUR OTHR HOLDERS..
 BUT THEN.....
LOOKING FOR STAINLESS BUCKETS---MY PROBLEM IS  WE NEED INDUSTRIAL GRADE ANYTHING-- AND WHEN STAINLES SAYS RUST RESISTANT-- YOU KNOW IT IS NOT STAINLESS OR THERE WOULD BE NO RUST TO RESIST..   SO I GET INTO FOOD QUALITY-- WHICH DOES NOT ALLOW A ROLLED LIP ( GERMS)   BUT AMAZON IN IT'S MARKETING WISDOM ONLY SEEMS TO SEARCH THOSE AMAZON FRIENDLY STORES.  NOT FARMTEK OR TRACTOR SUPPLY  WHICH IS WHERE WE DO MOST OF OUR SHOPPING
EARLENE AND I SUDDENLY REALIZED WE WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN HAVE TO LINE UP 16 MORE DOGS TO FEED INDIVIDUALLY..
SUCH PROBLEMS
RIGHT NOW.. TODAY--- THERE IS NO ONE IN THE NUTT HOUSE  5  OR THE NEW DEAGLE HOUSE 5 -- NOR THE LAUNDRY  4-- AND 2 EMPTY IN THE BARN...
SOME OF THOSE COULD TAKE MORE THAN ONE DOG-- BUT YOU SEE WE ARE READY FOR MORE DOGS.
*****
AND NOEL GAVE UP ON WALTER  BUT IS STILL ACCEPTING BENTLEY  COUNT 63 DAYS.. AND REMEMBER LAST TIME SHE DID NOT BECOME PREGNANT...
****
NOW FOR THE VET REPORT..... PUTTING TOGETHER A BUS LOAD FOR GEORGE'S
CHAOS HAS AN ENLARGED GLAND-- PROBABLY MASTITIS- WHICH COULD BE DANGEROUS--
IVY IS LIMPING AGAIN-- AND IS STILL ON THE MEDS FROM THE LAST CONSULT  SHE WAS SOUND YESTERDAY FOR THE MEGAN MARCH-- AND ON 3 LEGS TODAY
PERRY HAS  WHAT I CALL AN ELEPHANT EAR...  THICK ITCH-
AND I THOUGHT I WOULD TAKE WILLOW SEEING AS SHE SEEMS BETTER AND I WONDER HOW MUCH IS PAIN KILLER ..
SO FAR THAT'S IT... BUT IT IS EARLY
*************** 
 AND THE WASHER IS SET TO ARRIVE TODAY-- GOING IN THE FEED ROOM
 WHICH MEANS THE EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE  CAGE IS OUT IN THE FLAT FIELD-- AND REALLY HAS NO  HOME YET   -- IT MAKES A GREAT CLOSET FOR FLUFFYS.  WILL PROBABLY GO IN THE ARENA FOR NOW.
THERE ARE ALOT OF "FOR NOW'S" AROUND HERE.
************
A STAINLESS STEEL SINK WITH DRAINBOARD-- PERFECT FOR THE NEW DEAGLE HOUSE--- ARRIVED YESTERDAY..  WE WON'T HAVE  RUNNING WATER THERE( ESPECIALLY IN THE WINTER)--- BUT IT IS A PLACE TO DUMP WATER BUCKETS WHERE THE WATER CAN RUN INTO "A" LIKE IN THE NUTT HOUSE.... AND NOT BECOME A SLIPPERY MENACE-
************
I AM GOING BACK TO GETTING THE WISH LIST FUNCTIONAL-  IT IS AN AMAZING MARKETING BIT-- GIVE THEM AN ITEM AND THEY SUGGEST WHERE YOU SHOULD BUY IT...  FARM TEC IS NOT ON THEIR PREFERRED LIST   BUT I WILL STRUGGLE.
AND I WILL NOW SIT WITH THE PUPS  EARLENE HAS TO WORK....
PITY..
RUSHING.
