feb 19 2015
happy 19th.... !!  i think annie has picked up a cake for us... it is not just any cake it is from   
KONDITOR MEISTOR
there was one in purple  and there was one with bentley written on it... so between the two . we had to have one. and i got a strange message from annie yesterday... and since today is the 19th  what better need to celebrate.. etc...  these are cakes you make an appointment to pick up...

i think megan said it was her birthday next week..  but she says that alot... and we don't argue-- we just eat cake alot....
*************
aol is giving me a hard time today-- but that is hardly news...
********
yesterday's discovery-- thanks to megan.. was  teh senior center in amesbury... somebody with a creative mind thought that one up... so i have to share... 
they are right off  route 95 so they have a bus to boston commuter style-- they put up a very nice building  2 story-- first floor a few offices and a coffee counter kind of thing-- it is jam packed at 6 to 9 am-- after that it becomes the senior center- and the upstairs is a senior day care center.   what perfect use-- time wise for a heated a/c room with tables and coffee..and parking  and bus connections...
they knew we were coming-- with bentley and victoria- at this  old folks whatever... she did very well--  all danes start slowly  but after about 10 minutes we had the collar off   and she just wandered around   "go say  hi"  and then fell asleep...so she is doing well.l 

the crowd loved the dog visit... and we met some interesting people there....  they gave me a cup of coffee in a mug from the bank in town-- that bank made noises about having  us on their charity list-- and we never got anything.... at least yet... 
maybe if i made more noises about stopping in there  more often that bank might come thru.... that building  and bus connections were darn well done...- and we were met by the newbvury pt news photographer and "guy with tape recorder"... i don't know what he recorded before i realized i was on sound.. so heaven knows.. he guarentee'd it would be "above the fold"  today as long as there was no huge car crash on rt 95...
ah  that the usa would get over the 1 person 1 car syndrome..
and most of the time----that car is cap[able of carrying at least 4 people--the bus and trains in europe were soooo punctual it was spectacular  and so easy to use.
why do they have such a bad reputation here???  maybe because of the traffic jams caused by all the one person cars??
  isn't that a catch 22?      it had to be congress' fault i am sure.

***********
ethyl  is doing better---george-- the vet-- is the worlds worst pessimist--- he told me yesterday he suspected rocky mt(and  his gut feels are usually right)  and that meant she might take a very long time on meds--- he was not willing to say either yes or no as to her abilities as a service dog... 
she is the healthiest sick dog i have ever seen...  but her platelets are up and blood work generally better.  so we go on...

in the meantime-- bentley was called on to donate blood to a dog in surgery.. the office called and i said i would be right along-- with bentley and moriah as a back up-- he was no problem and tehy got their bag full-- and he a can of dog food..  we should hae a list on the file cabinet--- of accessable dogs for donating...  tasha-- george's dane is getting too old..  and heaven knows we have alot of donors here.  so i will put up a list on the file cabinet so if they call anyone will know who is available for donating.. and just run out the door... and will know when they donated last...
**********
also bentley's tail..is bleeding again... for all of you who said  "oh it is all healed"  well it is not... again..
