ethyl
she is th e healthyist looking seriously ill dog i have ever seen.-- we woun't know til monday if her platelets are going up or down... and why the protien problem

she looks fine    temp -- once 102.4 is now 101.6



Subject: daily doggie 2 7

somebody told  me  purina at $19.99 at target-- so i ran  off  and got 9 bags to hold us over.. DONE...
somebody else told me about a snap on plow for a kubota-- so i called on that an d am working on it..NONE LEFT IN THE UNIVERSE
somebody else suggested a container in place of the ambu for rat proof dog food--- good idea...... so i quickly looked into that...( i want to buy-- they want to rent)--

then somebody else..sent me this-
Send Janine out in the truck you bought for her. She can go to a few Walmarts with cash and get what she can. Small deed for all the animal expenses and other things you pay for her. 

i did not do this ..  and it bothered me . all of a sudden i realized someone might think sdp money went for that truck... or my car - not a penny..!!~

#1.  i ran the numbers-- i have saved for my old age, and at 77 i think i am there-- all else being equal ( social security staying viable...)i am set for the next 20 years ... so there is no reason for me to ride around in  the durango which was costing me about $1000 a month to keep towed and repaired.  for me to have a "farm truck" so we don't have to pile hay in my vehicle is a luxury.. right.. so i stole money from my retirement, now i am set for only the next 19 years... i will worry about that  later..
then there is the comical ----"send janine"??? ---in an emergency she certainly could  and would do whatever is necessary... ?? but... send??-- she has a job... and it is a big job-- so big that i can not pronounce it.-  ?all the expenses i pay for her?  those again are not SDP expenses... and thanks to  that miserable quicken program .. i don't know what i have spent on hay-- and are you counting the donkeys as mine or hers??.. ----whatever-- in no way was SDP money involved.
 getting that email already cost me $7 in the swear bear...
************
now - unrelated--  it just  so happens  the accountant i have been talking to came here yesterday.. she is teh one cpa who told me we  didn't need  a $14000 audit because of teh unusual spike in donations in 2013--( 2012 and 2014 were less)-- sop as of yesterday   she is now the one to worry about the  tanning booth on the 990  and to get the attorney general's off ic  up to date with thier PC-- and to be sure our financial statements are in alignment  with normal accounting standards.  this is not  the same as an audit...

she will have  "read only" access to all our bank accounts-- all 3 of them  ....the checking-- the left over savings-- and the fun fund.  

 she warned me that we should get in line with an official audit which is coming.... if we keep getting bigger...--  that is where the canceled check is not enough--   you need a purchase order ok'd by the board , an invoice and paid bill-  along with teh cancelled ck----this method is designed by the paper manufacturers of america.---

next we will need a filing clerk who knows the alphabet... no more #38 for utilities- and i will never remember if stuff is filed under  E for electricity or U for utilities-- and to find teh  "U's" i will have to start somewhere l -m- n- o- p- and then i get stuck q  --not alot of places you can google "what comes after Q?"

which brings up my age and the related defeatist attituude--  i wanted to know what the weather report had become  at 2:00am..and the tv was stuck on  the science channel about some guy who drove his jeep 200 miles  balanced on 2 wheels... i could not change the channel-- the 2 remotes it takes to run the tv were not changing- another bewildering binary problem - one was channel  the other was sound- which was off. after 45 min of button pushing and cursing the modern tech-- i found the batteries had fallen out of the channel changing remote-- once again -- not technology. just old fashion stupidity.

so-- the weather for north of boston  1 to 3   3-to  5  and 4 to 8-- so between 8 and 16 inches ---by tuesday
last time they said 12" we got 30"--- so whatever... it will give me a change to play with my wooden plow.

big next job--- write the end of project report for both the walkin freezer and the explore  grants-- both due march 1st..
both need a financial report-- which i will do on this miserable quicken-- and just note we have a cpa who will be doing it in the future..
