March 17, 2013

TODAY'S MAJOR EFFORT WILL BE THE CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE PROJECT.  MARIA IS ITALIAN,  MY MOTHER MAY HAVE COOKED IT- BUT I DON'T REMEMBER- AND ALAN'S TOTAL ADVICE "PUT IT  IN A POT ON THE FIRE"  - SO IT WILL BE A VIRGIN EFFORT.
 
WE THOUGHT OF HAVING IT HERE IN THIS HOUSE  BUT EVERY TIME EVEN A LARGE DOG WALKS BY THE FLOOR KIND OF "GIVES"   SO WE MIGHT BE VBETTER OFF IN THE GUEST HOUSE WHICH IS ON A CONCRETE SLAB.
 
RON -----ANOTHER JOB FOR YOU IS TO PUT IN A COUPLE OF THOSE SCREWUP 4"IRON POSTS IN THE CELLAR  BENEATH MY DESK-- IT HAS NOT SPILLED MY COFFEE YET-- BUT IT IS MAKING WAVES.
 
 ALONG WITH STRAIGHTENING OUT THE DISHWASHER- I DUNNO WHY THESE THINGS HAPPEN.. BUT  FOR A VERY LONG TIME I BLAMED THE DOGS FOR A STREAM WHICH WENT ACROSS THE  KITCHEN FLOOR AND ENDED  UNDER THE FRIDGE-  -- THEN I WORRIED I HAD VERY SICK DOGS BECAUSE  THE STREAM WAS CLEAR AND FOAMY-- IF I HAD CALLED GEORGE I WOULD HAVE NEVER HEARD THE END OF IT- FORTUNATELY WE NOTICED IT WAS NOT COMING OUT OF A DOG -- BUT THE DISHWASHER...-- WHICH BY NOW IS AT LEAST ONE INCH OUT OF "PLUMB"- AND TAKES 2 BIG BATH TOWELS TO COLLECT IT.  HOW IT GOT TO BE CROOKED I DO NOT KNOW... JUST ONE OF THOSE MYSTERIES OF LIFE.
 
****************
I AM DELIGHTED TO HEAR OF ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE MAILED AND INTEND TO MAIL THE PINK ENVELOPES--THIS SUPERINTENDENT OF THE ROCHESTER NH SCHOOLS MIKE HOPKINS  AND VALERIE MCKENNEY ( THE PRINCIPAL)  HAVE BEGUN TO DEAL- AND PUT NOTICES ON THE ANNOUNCEMENT AND IN THEIR NEWS-- SO WE ARE ON A ROLL.
