jan 13 2016
extremely dull dd today....
mind loosing for the day--- not even a fun topic to write... let alone read....however....

i had no idea 540 emails were piling up at another address of mine.. and not transferring them to the aol account as i was told would happen...this aol could be driving me berserk
aol woul d not let me  send out as many emails as go for teh daily doggie ( about 2000) so i had to open a constant contact account-- which required another email address  carlene white71@gmail.com-- which  was supposed to be flipping the emails to my aol email list...   it did not.... so all the comments about calendars - getting or not getting them... i never got the  email... til today.. also all the people donating  to that account , i never got the message and therefore never clainmed..... etc....

what is sickening is-- i know there are other carlene@servicedogproject.org along with info@ and a few others-- all of which i was told......

and none have access to my list of contacts.. so to respond or send them to pam or theresa  etc   is not easy.
*******
so guess what i will be doing today.... and i love this stuff !!
it really upsets me  to think people are expecting me to respond and then think i have ignored them..  the only things i ignore are these link  fb  etc things that  won't let me reply without downloading stuff i do not understand.

thanks to grace, ryan and steve G  the dog food got stored away- and it just fit !!

and then there is the electricity-- and who cares about the details... except  this is e educational???

last week we lost power by blowing up  the transformer at teh gate-- luckily it belongs to the electric company-- so tehy had to give me another...  which we blew up yesterday ( that is why the cameras went down  and then were slightly screwy to get running again)  so they gave me a bigger transformer-- this involved 2 monster trucks with huge cranes to lift th e thing out and in... at exactly the moment that the 53' trailer with our purina food arrived( that driver was a genuis to get in and out with all the cars parked..) many camera people were astounded watching him get around...

so these town electric guys suggested maybe we had an electrical "leak"  underground somewhere...

simple to detect... just go shut off the main breaker and see if the meter is still going around.- well we have"main breakers" in the house, guesthouse, laundry, t tent, barn (2-- one for the startup deal) and the shop..  and some  overlap... or we don't exactly know what iws where..- it has been 35 years-- and things keep geting added...
and they pointed  out that hte meters themselves were in tought shape..

so i have called cranney home services... and they will be here abotu 11 today-
i know  we have pipes between the locations.... they all stick out in the cellar with strings hanging out of them
unlabeled---..i put them in  when i had a water leak between house and barn--- 700 foot hole in the ground to get a new water supply to the barn down 5' ( new england frost).  but thse pipes are inthe samd hole down about 18"------- between an air compressor and hair dryer or vacuum cleaner. apparently it is not difficult to  get  another string thru the pipes-- if we only knew which pipe wnetn where... etc...
i called cranney and quit-- let them struggle... if we have to put in another line- it will need to be a fat one (because of teh amt of electricity needed in the barn with that dryer.) and probably won't go thru the existing pil[es anyway...
and all i wanted to do was install a standby generator- 
*****
the stool and vomit report is,,,,upsetting at least... some seem to have  very liquid stool which contains rocks  which is hopefully the cause-- why eat rocks???? some just do  for the fun of it/  as long as they go thru it is only slightly upsetting.. so we have withthe pups.... 2 rock passers and 1 stomach emptier--- and audry seems just a bit upset bowel....-- but as a walkinpooper-- that could be better...
dogs are all active and temps normal---it is just the inner workings at the moment.

fun day ahead...
