WOWOWOWOWOWOWO CHICKEN BRICKS SOLD OUT --- THANK YOU ALL--- THAT IS ONE PIECE OF THE PUZZLE THAT KEEPS US GOING... AND IT IS SUCH A RELIEF TO WATCH THE NEW NAMES APPEAR AND GET IT SOLD OUT... WHICH IT HAS BEEN FOR OVER A YEAR...
I WONDER... IF I INCREASE THE NUMBER OF BRICKS, I COULD HIRE A SPECIFIC DAYTIME PERSON TO MANAGE THE CAMERA AND BE WITH THE YOUNGEST SET OF PUPS HERE IN WHAT USED TO BE MY HOUSE ( NOW OFFICE/KENNEL/CAFETERIA/TV SET AND HOSTEL) LIKE WE HAVE THE OVERNIGHTER .. THERE ARE SOOOO MANY NEW PEOPLE ENJOYING THE DOGS... I THINK I WILL TRY THIS NEXT MONTH -- WITH EVERYONES BLESSING INCREASE THE NUMBER OF BRICKS BY 90..
IT TAKES A VILLAGE----AND MAYBE A NEW ADDRESS TO THE GIFT AND ALL THE CP'S WHO BUY BRICKS ARE A CRITICAL PART OF THAT VILLAGE. TO THE WINNER. --I DO LOOK THRU THE DAYS PURCHASES AND THERE ARE MANY NEW NAMES..
EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE I THINK I REALLY OUGHT TO EMAIL THE PEOPLE WHO BAIL US OUT WITH BIG PURCHASES-- THEN I REME3MBER THE BIG ONES ARE NICE-- BUT ALL THE $10 ONES ARE JUST AS NICE...
I WOULD HAVE TO HIRE A PERSON JUST TO DO THE EMAILINMG.. SO THAT IS OUT,,
CONSDIDER YOURSELF THANKED.

I DO NOT GET ALONG WELL WITH TOWN INSPECTOR OFFICIALS
IN 2008 MY WOODEN ARENA COLLAPSED IN A BLIZZARD..SO I HAD TO GET A PERMIT I TO REMODEL.. I CHOSE THE "CLEARSPAN BUILDING" FROM ?IOWA? TO PUT UP WHAT NOW STANDS HERE.. THE TOWN BUILDING INSPECTOR TRIED TO GET ME TO PICK HIS CONTRACTOR " WHY DO YOU HAVE TO GO ALL THE WAY TO IOWA WHEN XXXX COULD DO A BETTER JOB?" I HAD HAD DEALINGS WITH CLEARSPAN.. AND KNEW THEIR WORK SO I SAID NO, I PREFERRED THE CLEARSPAN-- HE SAID " YOU ARE OUT OF YOUR LEAGUE - YOU ARE ONLY A WOMAN" ... THEN REVERSED A DECISION ABOUT THE FOOTINGS AND DEM,ANDED I HAVE $27000 WORTH OF SOIL TESTING DONE BEFORE WE WENT ANYWHERE...
ONE OF MY NEIGHBORS BAILED ME OUT OF THAT ONE. WITH A $20,000 DONATION...
HE ALSO SAID HE HAS 8 YEARS DURING WHICH HE CAN MAKE ME TAKE IT DOWN....
CAN I CARRY A GRUDGE? YOU BET YOUR SWEET BIPPIE I CAN.
CONSEQUENTLY EVERYONE HERE WANTS ME OFF TH E PROPERTY WHEN THE INSPECTORS COME FOR FEAR IT WILL BE THAT GUY..
MAYBE I SHOULD GO HIDE IN GEORGE'S OFFICE...

THE CUT AND PASTE....
I IWSH I COULD COPY THE PICTURE OF STEVE AND CHARLIE DOING THE WALK... BUT MY ABILITIES ARE LIMITED
My name is Steve Girard and I am a 100% Total and Permanent disabled Army Veteran who suffers from PTSD/TBI. To assist me with my disabilities I have a Great Dane Service Dog named "Charlie". Charlie was born, raised, and trained at the Service Dog Project in Ipswich, Massachusetts. Due to my disabilities I was restricted to a cane, walker and at times a wheel chair and unable to associate with the general public. I spent long periods of time in the VA hospital learning to work with my disabilities and adapting to my new life. Once Charlie entered my life I was able to not only move more independently within my own house but in the community as well. I still suffer from night mares and the fear of closing my eyes because of what is still haunting me, Charlie licks my face to let me know he is there and lays with me to provide security and comfort as needed.
