MAY 27, 2013


10 years ago someone wrote sdp rules.

RULES WHILE AT

THE SERVICE DOG PROJECT:

IF IT’S BROKEN, FIX IT

IF IT’S DIRTY, CLEAN IT

IF IT’S SMELLY, PICK IT UP

IF IT’S EMPTY, FILL IT

IF YOU TRIP OVER IT, MOVE IT

IF IT’S GOT FOUR LEGS AND A TAIL, LOVE IT

IF IT’S GOT TWO LEGS AND IN A GREEN GOLF CART

LISTEN CLOSELY TO IT ...

THERE ARE A COUPLE ADDITIONS SINCE THEN

LIKE THE ONE AT THE GATE.

."THIS IS A WORKING FARM PLEASE USE COMMON SENSE"

RUNNING A FARM IS A CHALLANGE TO SAY THE LEAST-- BUT TO HAVE TO EXPLAIN EVERY ONE TO EVERY CITY SLICKER WOULD BE MORE THAN I COULD DO

DETAILS LIKE

DO NOT WANDER AROUND WITH NAILS FOR SOME PROJECT.

SOUNDS WIERD

EXCEPT... I HAVE PULLED MORE THAN ONE ROOFING NAIL OUT OF A FOOT IN MY CARREER

I DO NOT HAVE TIME TO EXPLAIN THAT ROOFING NAILS CAN LAND ON THE BIG HEAD AND STAY POINT UP.

I LEARNED THAT BY PULLING THOSE NAILS OUT OF

1 MY OWN SNEAKER/FOOT

2 GWEN AND/OR JANINE'S SNEAKER/FOOT

3 A LAME HORSE'S FOOT

4 A LAME DONKEY'S FOOT

 NOT SOMETHIGN EVERYONE THINKS OF ON A DAILY BASIS.

. MY HEAD IS FULL OF ALOT OF THOSE " EXPERIENCE COMES FROM BAD EXPERIENCES..."

********

BEING MEMORIAL DAY IT IS LIKE ANOTHR SUNDAY HERE-- AND WE HAV PLENTY OF YESTERDAY'S CHILI TO LAST US FOR THE DAY..

***********

WE ALSO HAVE SEVERAL PEOPLE COMING BACK AS WE SPENT ALOT OF TIME YESTERDAY TRYIJG TO SORT OUT DOGS.. - MOSTLY FOR VETERANS.. WE HAVE ALOT OF APPLICANTS HO ARE VETERANS- AND - PER OUT WEB.. WE DO GIVE PREFERENCE...

THE INVATITION TO RETURN WAS A LITTLE RANDOM SO I HOPE THEY DON'T ALL LAND HERE AT 9AM- BECAUSE WE HAVE A FEW DETAILS TO CHECK BEFORE WE DEAL WITH RECIPIANTS.

GEORGE... YOU AROUND TODAY?? WE HAVE A PUP-- PERFECTLY HEALTHY AS FAR AS I KNOW... BUT IT WILL BE GOING TO A VETERAN'S FAMILY WHO LOST THEIR DOG 2 WEEKS AGO... AND I WANT YOU TO WAVE YOUR HAND OVER IT - I GET VERY NERVOUS IN A SITUATION LIKE THIS... BECAUSE THEY AREW ANIMALS- AND STRNGE THINGS CAN HAPPEN

 DUE DILLAGENCE IS MAYBE THE WORD.

****

CHAOS IS WITH PAUL-

OLIVER IS WITH JESSY ( AN OVERNIGHT)

MINT IS IN THE HOUSE BECUSE SHE GOT NAILED AN D LIMPED YESTERDAY-- BUT SEEMS FINE NOW.

WINSTON NOT ONLY FEELS FINE- BUT HE HAD AN ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL POOP

*********

FUNNY THE THINGS THAT ARE PLEASING.. OR MAYBE THE LACK OF THINGS THAT ARE PLEASING..

I HAVE FISH TO FRY ( BUSY DAY AHEA D--- NOT THE FOOD VARIETY)
