NOV 5TH 2013

SO MUCH STUFF- SO LITTLE WALL SPACE...-- ONLY THE OLD TIMERS AROND HERE WILL APPRECIATE THIS NEXT PROBLEM..

WE ARE STARTING SPOON FEEDING OF BABY FOOD-- ( AS IN THE PAUL VIDEO ON "HOW TO SMEAR BABY FOOD ON YOURSELF AND PUP)

DOESN'T SOUND LIKE A HUGE PROBLEM-- EXCEPT 11 PUPS... 11 JARS  OF BABY FOOD EQUALS 11 EMPTY JARS------ LOVELY JARS--  MATCHING JARS.... WITH LIDS...

MY FATHER ALWAYS TOLD ME- DON'T THROW AWAY ANY COLLECTION OF LIKE ITEMS-- EVENTUALLY YOU WILL FIND A USE FOR IT-
BORN IN 1900- HE  WAS MOSTLY REFERRING TO HARDWARE- BECAUSE THERE WAS NO LOCAL HOME DEPOT ROUND EVERY CORNER.

LITTLE DID HE KNOW  HIS INSTRUCTIONS  WOULD SUBCONSCIOUSLY LEAD ME TO DRIVING 8 MATCHING DONKEYS-- AND CURRENTLY A MATCHED PAIR OF WHITE PUPS..

AND IN THE HARDWARE DEPT-- I HAVE A PRETTY GOOD COLLECTION OF HINGES--- SOMEWHERE--- AND A PRETTY AMAZING COLLECTION OF GLASS JARS...
THE GLASS JARS STARTED-- OR BECAME A PROBLEM- WHEN I HAD TROUBLE THROWING AWAY THOSE STORE BOUGHT  PRODUCTS WHICH WERE  SOLD IN THE MASON JARS  FOR WHICH YOU COULD BUY LIDS  AND USE IN CANNING--  I WOULD SEEK OUT PRODUCTS SOLD IN THOSE RE-USEABLE JARS.... I NO LONGER CAN--I JUST COLLECT CANNING JARS IN CASE I START AGAIN..

BUT THAT LED TO BEING FIXATED WITH  LOVELY LITTLE SQUARE JARS IN WHICH CRANBERRY SAUCE BY DICKSON FOODS WAS SOLD-- MORE JARS COULD LINE UP ON A SHELF BETTER IF THEY WERE SQUARE.. NUTS/BOLTS/GROMMET STUFF AND DRILL BITS... WE ATE ALOT OF CRANBERRY SAUCE-- AND STILL DO.

WHICH LED TO THE INDIVIDUAL JAMS SOLD BY THEM-- HOTELS HAVE THEM-- LOVELY LITTLE STURDY JARS-- NICE LIDS... NO KNOWN USE YET.. EXCEPT FOR THE TABLESPOON OF OLIVE OIL INTO WHICH WE DIP A Q-TIP TO SWIPE THE BUMS OF NEWBORN PUPS- SO THEY DON'T GET PASTY BUMS....-- BUT THAT DOES NOT KEEP UP WWITH THE NUMBER OF JARS PRODUCED BY MEGAN'S LOVE  FOR PB&J SANDWICHES --  THE COLLECTIO IS STORED ON THE OVERFLOW PORCH ( AS OPPOSED TO THE OVERFLOW ROOM)

AND THEN I NOTICED GOERGE-- THROWING AWAY ALL THOSE GLASS VIALS  LEFT OVER FROM VACCINATING  HIS PATIENTS..  THEY HAD A LOVELY RUBBER STOPPER ... AND WERE REALLY VER NICE TINY JARS...  SO I COLLECTED THEM--- WASHING/PEALING OFF METAL LIDS   NEEDED  SIGNIFICANT EFFORT  BUT  MY FATHER......

AND SURE ENOUGH-- HE WS RIGHT-- CAUSING THE BIRTH OF THE  INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN.... "PUPPY BREATH MANUFACTURING COMPANY"-- WITH SALES IN THE HUNDREDS....AT $8.00 EACH  ( INCLUDING POSTAGE)  THE TRANQUILIZING EFFECT OF PUPPY BREATH IS HISTORIC...

MANY IS THE COMPUTER WHICH HAS A PUPPY BREATH VIAL RIGHT NEXT TO THE KEYBOARD .. A SLIGHT -QUICK SNIFF WILL DE-FRAZZLE THE NERVES OF PEOPLE DETERMINED TO  UNDERSTAND THE NANO TECH WORLD.

I KNOW OF ONE FAMILY THANKSGIVING DINNER  WHERE NO ONE ARGUED BECAUSE A VIAL OF PUPPY BREATH WAS  LIGHTLY SCATTERED OVER EVERY DINNER PLATE FIR A FIRST EVER HAPPY  FAMILY DINNER PARTY.

THERE IS ONE PERSON WHO BOUGHT 2 -- AND KEEPS ONE  IN  THE DRAWER OF THINGS WHICH GET CLEANED OUT ONCE A YEAR.  THEY ARE GUARENTEED TO CAUSE A SMILE FOR YEARS..

WE HAVE HAD ONLY ONE COMPLAINT ABOUT THE VIAL BEING EMPTY-

AND SHOULD YOU USE YOURS UP, REFILLS ARE $5.00.
***************
FROM THERE TO WORMS...

WE WORMED THE PUPS YESTERDAY  AND THE RESULTS LAST NIGHT WERE SPECTACULAR---  WHICH REMINDS ME WE SHOLD WORM MOM TOO..
THIS IS FOR THE ROUND WORMS THTA ALL PUPS GET-- AS DO THIER MOMS..-- I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE LIFE CYCLE OF THE  ROUND WORM-- SOME DAY...MAYBE I AM  UNKNOWINGLY COLLECTING THESE LITTEL JARS TO DO SOME EXPERIMENTAL WORK  TO BE SUBSIDIZED BY THE GOV'T.

THERE MUST BE SOME REASON....
***************
AND ALL OF THIS HAS TO DO WITH  CAMERA MARK- WHO SOMEHOW HAS ACCESS TO SOME OFFICE CLEANING OUT PARTY-- AND COULD GET STUFF FOR US...  BIG STUFF... GOOD STUFF , ICEBOXES, TABLES, CHAIRS,  FILING CABINETS( INTO WHICH I COULD PUT LITTLE JARS)  

SO I HAVE CALLED A OVERFLOW COMMITTEE MEETING FOR THIS MORNING...

THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT SHORTAGE OF WALL SPACE.. UNLESS......

WELL... THE TIP[I WOULD LOOSE IT'S CHARM IF WE PUT A BIG METAL FILE CABINET IN THE MIDDLE...
********

BUT THAT IS ONE OF TODAY'S BIG JOBS.  GIVE MARK A LIST OF WHAT WE COULD USE.

**********
AND CHECK ON SCARLOTT-- SHE HAD A MASSIVE  ABCESS WHICH GEORGE DRAINED AND PUT IN  A FUNNY PIECE OF HOSE TO KEEP IT OPEN..

GETTING ALL THAT DONE INVOLVED ME SLEEPING ONTHE FLOOR IN A CORNER OF HIS SURGICAL AREA  AND THEN I WAS JOINED BY ANN SO THE 2 OF US SAT ON THE FLOOR WHILE WE WAITED FOR GEORGE TO BE AVAILABLE TO WORK ON SCARLOTT-- WE WORKED ON THE ANNENBERG LETTER...  WHILE OVER OUR HEADS VET TECHS  SPUN BLOOD, READ SLIDES AND GENERALLY CARRIED ON...

GEORGE DOES RUN A VERY GOOD VET OFFICE..  EVEN WITH ME SOUND ASLEEP ON THE FLOOR IN THE CORNER.
