I JUST DO NOT UNDERSTAND....

I HAVE NEVER IN MANY YEARS OF PUPPY RAISING, WORMED PUPS AND HAD NOT EVEN ONE STRAND OF VERMICELLI-

YET-- THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IN A MONTH--LOTSA SOUP-- NO WORMS SO FAR A DRS FOSTER/SMITH-- ZERO NADA--- THEN SOMETHING GEORGE GAVE ME-- NOTHING VISABLE--- THEN THE ALL WORMER FROM AUSTRALIA-- THAT DOES EVERYTHING ( NEARLY) AND SO FAR ONLY SOUPY POOS.

 AND I CAN NOT SAY THE PUPS LOOK TERRIFFIC EITHER.. THERE IS A LITTLE OF THE BACKBONE WITH BULDGING BELLY THAT IS SO TYPICAL OF WORMS...

GEORGE ...... I WILL BRING YOU SOME SOUP TODAY???

*********************

NEXT DISASTER...

THE HAWK HAS MOVED TO THE AREA BY THE HOUSE-- WHERE THE YOUNG PUPS ARE... COUPLE VOLUNTEERS SAID THEY SAW A HUGE BIRD WITH A RED TAIL IN A TREE RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE HOUSE..... ( SOUNDS FAMILIAR)

SO ALL THE PUPS SPENT THE NIGHT IN THE HOUSE--- WITH BECKY (JADES MOM BECKY)-

THAT BEING RIGHT AFTER WORMING ALL 10---- I WAS FRIGHTENED-- BUT SHE STAYED AHEAD OF IT AND THE PLACE IS SPOTLESS.. IT REALLY HELPS HAVING THE FENCING PENS ACROSS TEH PATH SO YOU CAN JUST THROW THEM OUT-- WHICH I JUST DID BEFOR I EVEN HAD COFFEE-- AND TTHEY EMPTIED AND ARE BACK ASLEEP ON THE COUCH..

 BUT...

ALL THAT MEANS IS WE HAVE TO STRING THE NUTT HILL PEN WITH ALL THE RIBBONS ETC--

WE ARE OUT OF THE 1100 FEET OF YELLOW ROPE FROM THE CHICKEN AND V PEN PROJECT ]

BUT GET READY FOR THIS ONE...

IN THE OVERFLOW ROOM, I HAD SAVED THE WHITE TAPE THAT VERIZON USED TO PULL THE CABLE TO THE BARN LAST SEPTEMBER TO HOOK UP THE EXPLORE CAMERAS . THERE HAS TO BE MORE THAN 1200 FEET OF THAT.. I DO NOT KNWO WHAT IT IS MADE OF BUT APPARENTLY IT HAS A REALLY BIG TENSILE STREGNTH NUMBER.

SO WHY WOULD I THROW THAT AWAY??? WHY WOULD THEY???

SO THIS MORNING WE CAN STRING THAT FROM PILLAR TO POST AND HANG RIBBONS- CD DISCS, PIE PLATES, ETC - WE WILL LOOK LIKE A CARNIVAL-- BUT WE HAVE NOT SEEN THE HAWK NEAR THE CHICKENS SINCE WE MADE A MAYPOLE OF THEIR AREA.

BACK TO THAT TAPE STUFF.. THE INDUSTRIAL USE OF STUFF THEN THROWN AWAY IS PERPLEXING.. IT HAS TO BE EXPENSIVE

AND IN THIS CASE... IT COMES OFF A REEL AS THEY PULL IT THRU THE UNDERGROUND PIPE-- THIS MEANS THAT.. BECAUSE NO ONE HAS INVENTED A LITTLE REEL THING TO WIND IT AS IT PULLS IT- THE VERIZON EMPLOYEE PULLS IT INTO A LUMP AND THROWS IT AWAY.-

THAT IS MY MILLION DOALLAR INVENTION OF THE DAY-

THAT STUFF IS EXPENSIVE-- I WAS TOLD YOU CAN TOW A CAR WITH IT.. MAYBE AFTER WE STRING THE PUPPY PEN WE SHOULD CHECK THAT OUT TO BE SURE WE ARE SCIENTIFICALLY CORRECT..

I AM SURE IT AIN'T CHEAP..

YOU CAN ADD THAT TO MY LIST OF THINGS I WOULD TRY AND PATENT IF IT WASN'T SO EXPENSIVE TO DO THAT.

IDENTIFY A NEED AND FILL IT- HAS BEEN MY BUSINESS PLAN- AND HOW I GOT INTO CARRYING COCKROACHES ONTO MOVIE SETS AND SHAMPOOING COWS.. AS ANIMAL EPISODES....THERE WASN'T A LONG LINE OF PEOPLE WHO COULD DO THAT... OR WHO WANTED TO...

*****

I NOTICE SOMEONE IS FOOLING WITH MY REDESIGNED SHOPPING CART-- BY ADDING A CUP HOLDER-- I WOULD ADD A FEW OTHER WIRES AND HAVE IT BE MUCH MORE USEFUL .

****

BARKING DOGS ARE DREADFUL THIS MORNING.-- ONE IN THE BARN AND DAMIEN----- DAMIEN NEEDS A JOB

 ************

BETH LEFT HARRY HERE FOR A WEEK OF WEDDINGS-- HE IS REALLY BEEN THE HIGHLIGHT OF HER LIFE-- I KNOW THAT BECAUSE SEVERAL CAMERA PEOPLE HAVE SEEN HER IN THE MARKETS ON THE CAPE AND EMAILED ME WHAT A GREAT LOOKING AND BEHAVING DOG HE IS...

************

WE HAVE A NEW VOLUNTEER AROUND.. ACTUALLY HE DOESN'T REALIZE HE IS A VOLUNTEER YET-- BUT I WILL FIND SOMETHING FOR HIM TO DO... HE DID GREATJOB PATTING PUPPIES YESTERDAY- THAT IS A HUGE HELP-- HE DOESN'T REALISE HE IS THE TEMPORRY HAWK DEFLECTOR TIL WE GET THE STRINGS UP.

HIS NAME IS AXEL SO IF ANY OF OUR OTHER VETERANS ARE AROUND.... HE SPEAKS "VETERAN" .

 ***************

ALL OF BENTLEY'S GIRLFRIENDS HAVE GONE HOME-- LYN PICKED UP MERLOW YESTERDAY-- SHE WAS GIVING BENTLEY THE GET LOST MESSAGE.... WITH HER TEETH...

**********

HAPPY TO REPORT MEGAN SPENT AN UNEVENTFUL 3 HOURS AT THE HER WONDERING IF SHE HAD A KIDNEY STONE ONLY TO BE GIVEN A NEW PILL- SHE HAS NO FAITH-- BUT IS MARCHING ONWARD.
