PAUL ATTACKED BY NASTY SANDWICH. -- AND SAVED BY A CAMERA PERSON IN TENN--
I COULD NOT MAKE UP THIS STUFF.
APPARENTLY PAUL FELT SICK AS HE APPROACHED TENNASSEE HE REMEMBERED I HAD
GIVEN HIM EMAILS FROM SEVERAL CAMERA PEOPLE WHO HAD SAID THEY WERE ON THE
WAY...SO HE STOPPED AND WERE WELCOMED BY DIANNE AND TIM ( I THINK WERE THE
CP'S )
SINCE HE WAS FELLING LESS THAN PAR.. EARLENE DECIDED TO FLY DOWN AND DRIVE
BACK WITH HIM - SOMEHOW THAT FLIGHT AND ARRIVAL TIME GOT PUBLISHED SOMEWHERE --
AND SEVERAL PEOPLE WITH SIGNS WERE THERE TO WELCOME HER.
FORTUNATELY IT WAS ALL IN GOOD FUN.
APPARENTLY THEY WILL PICK UP BB TODAY AND START NORTH CHASING THAT
RAINSTORM INSTEAD OF DRIVING THRU IT... HOPEFULLY.
*******
TODAYS DD IS EASY TO WRITE .. I HAVE SEVERAL TOPICS READY FOR ME..
********
SPOON FEEDING- BECKY JUST GAVE EVERYONE A SPOONFUL ( SO THEY DON'T VOMIT
YELLOW BILE AS AN EMPTY DANE STOMACH IS INCLINED TO DO)
AND AS SHE WAS DISHING IT OUT I HEARD BENTLY
NO SEVERAL TIMES-- AND I REALIZED THEY ARE TRAINED TO
RESPOND TO THIER NAMES SO QUICKLY IN THAT FEEDING ROUTINE -- THAT HE WAS BEING
CORRECT IN HEARING HIS NAME AND LURCHING FORWRD SO QUICKLY HE NEVER HEARD THE
----NO--- PART..
BY CHANGING IT TO SAYNG THE NAME ONLY OF THE DOG WHO WAS TO GET THE FOOD,
HE WAS PERFECT...
THANKS FOR THE TRAINING TIP BENTLEY...
**********
AND THEN THER IS THE VOLUNTEER PROBLEM.
WHEN WE WENT THRU THIS ACCREDITATION PROCESS-- I GOT VERY TIRED OF SHELIA
( O'BRIEN) SAYING " YOU HAVE TO HAVE A POLICY AND IT MUST BE WRITTEN"
WELL YESTERDAY... NO ONE WAS HURT... BUT WHAT I THOUGHT WAS AN EASY POLICY
TO MAINTAIN... AN 11 YEAR OLD CHILD MUST BE WITHIN 11 FEET OF A PARENT.... DID
NOT WORK AND RESULTED IN AN 11 YEAR OLD CHILD DRIVING WILDLY AROUND IN A GOLF
CART HAVING A WONDERFUL TIME...... ALSO ENDANGERING PUPS AND ADULT DOGS
ALIKE. PLUS... THE WORST PART--- LEAVING ME TO WALK TO THE BARN TO FIND A GOLF
CART !!!! TRACY IS VERY PLEASENT AND ACCOMODATING--- WE LIKE THAT --- MOM HAD
JU\ST A FEW ERRANDS TO RUN AND DID TRACY MIND? ----- OF COURSE SHE DIDN'T
MIND..
WELL I SURE DID !!!
I HAVE ALSO FOUND THAT WHEN SOMEONE AVOIDS ASKING MY PERMISSION IT IS
BECUSE THEY ALREADY KNOW THE ANSWER.
SOMEONE HAS TO BE THE SOB---- AND IN CASE YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS-- THAT IS MY
JOB.
LET ME PUT IT ANOTHER WAY-- BABYSITTING IS $14000.00 AN HOUR.
TRAINING CHILDREN TO BEHAVE AS WELL AS OUR DOGS--- IS EVEN MORE.
PEOPLE OFFER ME THAT JOB ALL THE TIME...
****
THERE ARE A FEW KIDS HERE WHO HAVE EARNED THE RIGHT TO DRIVE THOSE CARTS--
MAINLY BECAUSE THEY USE THEM IN WORK THEY ARE DOING.. LAURA AND DEVLIN BOTH
COME TO MIND...
BUT THE NEW POLICY ABOUT VOLUNTEERS IS THAT THEY CAN COME ON A SATURDAY--
WITH MARIA OR SUNDAY WITH MEGAN
AND THEN IF THEY -- THEIR PARENTS ARE WILLING TO MAKE A WEEKLY COMMITMENT
PLUS MEGAN AND MARIA GIVE THEM A POSITIVE REPORT ON WORKMANSHIP----, WE CAN
ALLOW THEM TO BA AN OFFICIAL VOLUNTEER WITH COMMUNITY SERVICE POINTS--- AND
AFTER A BUNCH OF HOURS... MAYBE A SHIRT.
******
RAINY DAY---
2 JOBS TODAY-
- MAKING SOME 4" MONKEY FIST FOR WHICH WE HAVE ORDERS..
WORKING ON THE BOOK---- BEFORE JANINE FIRES ME AND DOES IT
HERSELF...
.......THINKING MAYBE THE THIRD JOB.,
