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)
