mixing up the 2 litters down at the t tent was successful
basically the mothers didn't really care- i have decided they only reason
they are nursing now is they have too much milk-- they don't care who empties
them..
small problem with the 3 harl pups, but we did get it right... had to check
the cheat sheets..
nice group of pups every one...merl;ow still tries to order pi around but othert than that -- it was possible to let them mix in that v pen
*************
2 cp'S FROM RI WERE HERE TO HELP WITH CHORES MOST OF THE DAY...
**************
I EXPENDED ALL MY ENERGIES THIS MORNING ON FINDING BUCKWHEATS COGGINS TEST
SO WE CHA SHIP HIM OUT ON TUESDAY
IT WASN'T EASY BUT I FOUND IT..
*************
COGGINS-- THAT IS TO PROVE HE IS NOT A CRRIER OF XXXXX WHICH I DON'T THINK
HAS BEEN SEEN HERE IN 20 YEARS???
THEY STARTED THIS "MUST HAVE A COGGINS TST TO BREATHE" WHEN
JANINE WAS 8? AND HAD TINKER-- HER PONY THT SHE RODE SO HARD SHE WORE OUT
STEEL SHOES IN 3 WEEKS INSTEAD OF THE USUAL 8 WEEKS.. I WAS TERRIFIED-- THEY
MADE SUCH A PUBLOIC RELATION CAMPAIGN ABOUT IT "ANY POSITIVES MUST BE DESTROYED
AS CARRIERS"
YOU COULD NOT GO TO A HORSE SHOW-- OR TRANSPORT ETC.. AND I WAS AFRAID
TINKER WOULD TEST POSITIVE ( SHE EVENTUALLY DID NOT) BUT IT WAS ONLY $10 SO I
STOPPED COMPLAINING...
NOW IT IS A FARM CALL ....................$52.00
DRAW BLOOOD 18.00
SEND TO STATE LAB 11.00
COGGINS TEST
10.00-------------------YEARLY
I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW EXACTLY WHEN AND WHERE WAS THE LAST CASE OF XXXXXX
THERE MAY BE A VERY GOOD REASON.. BUT I NEED TO HAVE MY MEMORY
RFRESED.....-- I CANT EVEN REMEMBER WHAT WE ARE TESTING FOR..
****************
AT ANY RATE HE IS READY TO GO-- I THINK TUESDAY.
IT MIGHT HAVE WORKD.. BUT IT DIDN'T
IT IS NOT GOING TO BE EASY TO "REPLACE" MARY....
******************
BUSY DAY AHEAD-- NOT A SH#TTING SUNDAY--- BUT WE ARE SOLD OUT
AND I AM GOING TO PRINT OUT THE NECESSARY PAPERWORK FOR NEXT SUNDAY--
I WORK HARD ON THIS SHATUPON SOCIETY...
SO FAR IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS..
ON A SH#TTING SUNDAY MORNING
THE PRINTER HAS REFUSED TO WORK AT ALL
THE LISTO OF PEOPLE WOULD NOT PRINT
THE LITTLE CIRCLE PROGRAM REFUSED TO GO BEYOND 630
AND I RAN OUT OF INK...
I DO NOT WANT THAT EXCITEMENT.......
THE RULE "WE PUT OUT NUMBERS AT 2:30 AND CHICKENS AT 3:00 HAS
HAPPENED... BUT I HAVE SKATED UNDER THE WIRE EACH TIME.
FOR BETTER OR WORSE JANINE HAS THE BOOK SO I DON'T HAVE THAT ...
LOOKING FORWARD TO A RELAXING SUNDAY.
I AM NOT YELLING-- I CAN NOT SEE the small print
