AGING IS NOT FOR THE MEEK-
SOMEBODY GAVE ME A BOTTLE OF ALEVE- HAVING NEVER TAKE IT, I THOUGHT I 'D READ THE DIRECTIONS AND SEE WHAT IT WAS SUPPOSED TO DO...
EVEN WITH A MAGNIFYING GLASS I READ IT HELPED WITH TURTLES, MIND DESIGN AND
BACKYARD SWINGS....WHO IS THE SADISTIC SOUL WHO MAKES THAT PRINT THAT SMALL??
I HEARD ON THE TV ADS IT WAS GOOD FOR ARTHRITIS----WHY WAS THERE NOT SOMEONE IN THE ALEVE CORPORATION TO STUDY HOW MANY PEOPLE WITH ARTHRITIS WERE AGING WITH FAILING EYESIGHT- AND NEED TO BE ABLE TO READ WHAT TO DO WITH THE STUFF..
MAYBE .. LIKE READERS DIGEST-- THEY HAVE A LARGE PRINT EDITION I DON'T KNOW ABOUT..
WHOEVER THAT PERSON WAS WHO DESIGNED THAT LABEL, HAS A TWIN WHO WORKS FOR THE WHIPPED CREAM MAKERS GUILD.. AFTER DAYS OF STRUGGLING WITH THE DIRECTIONS ABOUT PRESSURIZING NO2 CANNISTERS WHICH HAD A NASTY TWIST OF HAVEING TINY PRINT ON WHITE PAPER IN VERY LIGHT PINK INK, RICHARD FINALLY GOT ONE CANNISTER TO WORK. ABOUT ALL WE HAD TO GO ON WAS A TINY PICTURE OF ONE NO2 THING WITH .5L NEXT TO IT.... AND TWO NO2 CANNISTERS WITH A 1 L NEXT TO IT..
THIS IS TRICKY..... BECAUSE THE DISPENSERS SEEM TO COME IN .5 LITER AND 1 LITER, WE ASSUMED YOU NEEDED 2 OF THE BULLET NO2 "THINGS" WHICH MEANS THAT YOU HAD TO BE ABLE TO REMOVE THE FIRST WITHOUT HAVING CREAM SHOOT OUT THE LITTLE HOLE ALL OVER THE CIELING.. IT WAS A VERY SOPHISTICATED AND DANGEROUS ASSUMPTION.
IT DOES SEEM TRUE THAT YOU CAN REMOVE THE POWER NO2 THING AND IT MUST HAVE A VALVE IN THAT PREVENTS THE CREAMY CEILING SYNDROME.
IN CASE YOU DIDN'T RECOGNISE IT-- THAT IS THE EDUCATIONAL DAILY DOGGIE DISCUSSION FOR THE DAY... TO WHICH I MUST ADD-- THAT ALL OF YOU WHO NOW WANT TO RUN OUT AND BUY THESE "COMMERCIAL' WHIPPED CREAM MAKERS ON EBAY... PAY ATTENTION TO WHICH DISPENSER USES WHICH CARTRIDGE--- I ADVISE BUYING A PACKGE DEAL TO START.. THEY WILL GIVE YOU THE DISPENSER WITH NITROUS OXIDE CARTRIGES-- SO FAr in my experience, they arE not interchaingale...
IT DOES LOOK LIKE A FUN TOY... BECAUSE ALTHO I CAN NOT READ THE DIRECTIONS, THE RE IS A PHOTO WITH THE WORDS creme au sirop d'erable UNDER IT... WHICH IS NOT ONLY IN PINK , BUT IN FRENCH??? AND SOMEONE TOLD ME IT SAYS MAPLE SYRUP...
NOW THERE IS A CARROT IN FRONT OF THE DONKEY... BOY DOES THAT SOUND GOOD..
THE VERY FEW INSTRUCTIONS WE FOUND RELATED TO -- NO GRANUALS( LIKE SUGAR--MAKE SYRUP OR USE POWDERED?) AND A SPECIFIC NUMBER OF SHAKES WHICH HAS TO DO WITH THE BUTTERFAT CONTENT OF THE CREAM. BUT IS IT EVER GOOOOOOOD !
AND TOTALLY LACKING IN CALORIES -- ( I AM SURE THAT SAID IT SOMEWHERE.... IN PINK...)
THE AGING AND MEEK PART I STARTED WITH- I NEVER MEANT TO GET INTO THE TOPIC OF CREAM... MY OBSERVATION ON THAT IS ... NOT ONLY IS MY HEARING LESS THAN DESIREABLE- BUT I HAD TROUBLE SEEING MARK'S TOY ...DRONE... IF HE WENT MUCH HIGHER THAN THE TREES ( WHICH HE DETERMINED TO BE 120 FEET TALL....) GRANTED THERE WERE WHITE FLUFFY CLOUDS AND IT IS WHITE--- BUT 4 PEOPLE STUCK THEIR FINGERS UP IN THE SKY AND SAID "YOU CAN'T SEE THAT???" WHICH IF I COULD SEE IT , THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NO DISCUSSION ABOUT MY NOT SEEING IT.
*****
DOGS.... NOW..... AND THIS IS A GOOD ONE..... AND I CERTAINLY COULD BE WRONG.. BUT....
IT IS ABOUT NECCO-- WHO IS WHAT I WOULD CALL A LIGHTLY MARKED HARLEQUIN (I WOULD CALL ARIOT A LIGHTLY MARKED DANE ALSO -- AND ARIOT IS DEAF--- BAILEY - ALSO LIGHTLY MARKED HARL IS NOT DEAF...) BECAUSE OF THE ASSOCIATION OF WHITE AND DEAF, RUMOR HAS IT THAT NECCO IS DEAF-- "SHE SITS BACK AND DOES NOT ALWAYS COME WHEN CALLED".. IT IS MY CONTENTION SHE IS NOT DEAF--- SHE CAN HEAR WHEN TESTED ON A VARIETY O F NOISES.... BUT BECAUSE THE ASSUMPTION THAT SHE WAS DEAF HAS MADE HANDLERS TREAT HER DIFFERENTLY, AND SHE DOES NOT INTERPRET THE SOUNDS AS THE REST OF THE LITTER DOES...
WE BROUGHT HER IN THE HOUSE....AND AFTER LETTING HER RELAX AND INVESTIGATE ALL THE NOOKS AND CRANNEYS... I PICKED UP THE TREAT BOX, WIHT JUST A VERY MINOR NOISE-- AND HER HEAD TURNED-- BOTH WAYS FOR A START-- BUT SHE CLEARLY HEARD THE NOISE AND RECOGNIZED IT AS COOKIES. SHE DID NOT REACT AT FIRST TO THE PUP PUP PUP USUAL , BUT AFTER LEARNING THAT THE PUP NOISE ALSO MEANT COOKIES, SHE BEGAN TO RESPOND DIRECTLY TO THAT... CLAP YOUR HANDS GETS NO REACTION-- BECAUSE SHE DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THAT NOISE MEANS... SHAKE TEH BOX OF COOKIIES WILL BRING HER ACROSS THE ROOM.
I WILL ALLOW THAT HER HEARING MIGHT... I SAY MIGHT... NOT BE WHAT YOU COULD CALL ACUTE.. IT WILL NEED FURTHER INVESTIGATION... BUT THE WHITE DEAF LABEL IS NOT DOING HER ANY FAVORS... SO SOCIALLY SHE MIGHT BE A LITTLE BEHIND THE OTHERS-- COULD BE OUR FAULT ... LETS ASSUE SHE IS NOT DEAF FOR THE MOMENT.
*******
THANKSGIVING- RICHARD IS A LITTLE CONCERNED BECAUSE OUR PLANS ARE NOT DEFINITE... LIKE HOW MANY WILL BE HERE?--I DUNNO...
WE WILL HAVE A BUNCH OF FOOD IN THE TRAINING ROOM AND ANY VOLUNTEERS, CAMERA PEOPLE OR ASSOCIAES WHO ARE AROUND ARE WELCOME TO COME EAT.
(AND PITCH IN WITH THE AFTERNOON CHORES WITH THE DOGS-- THEY DON'T CARE IF SOMEONE DECIDED IT IS A HOLIDAY)
SINCE HE GOT THE WHIPPED CREAM MAKER GOING... WE HAVE TO GO TO COSTCO AND STOCK UP ON HEAVY CREAM FOR TOYING WITH...(MEGAN HAS VOICED A PREFERENE FOR GREEN COLORING) UNTIL WE RUN OUT OF THE NO2 THINGS.
******
BASIC PLAN OF THE DAY IS 9am TO BE AT THE INTERSECTION OF GOODHUE AND HIGHLAND AVENUE (?IPSWICH OR HAMILTON?) TO WATCH THE MYOPIA HUNT GATHER-- IT IS SPECTACULAR --- 40 HOUNDS AND ?80 OR SO BEAUTIFULLY ATTIRED RIDERS..... (ONE MAY BE JANINE)- THEY ROAR OFF INTO THE COUNTRYSIDE AT 10Aam- AND MANY PEOPLE WILL FOLLOW THEM BY CAR TO KNOWN CROSSINGS.... OR TO OTHER FARMS WHERE THEY STOP FOR A STIRUP CUP OF ?WINE?-- PROBABLY --- WE WILL COME HOME... WHERE GRACE AND CREW ARE SETTING UP... PAM AMONG OTHER THINGS HAS BEEN A CHEF IN HER A CAREER-- I KNOW SHE IS ONE HECK OF A SHORT ORDER COOK....
EATING/ SOCIALIZING WILL TAKE PLACE PRBABLY MOST OF THE AFTERNOON
SO ON WE GO???
