MAYBE CHINESE FOOD FOR BREAKFAST SLOWS ME DOWN...
SO MAYBE TODAY'S CHORE SHOULD BE TO HAVE SOME NORMAL BREAKFAST THINGS AROUND HERE-- WE ARE JUST ABOTU THRU THE HUGE COLLECTION OF MINIWHEATS WE GOT AT MAIL CALL- ONES I NEVER KNEW EXISTED PUMPKIN, BLUEBERRY, STRWBERRY, COFFEE,CHOCOLATE ETC...
****
TO BE HONEST , I HAVE A BOX FULL OF NUTROSYSTEM FOODS WHICH AREN'T .. BAD....- BUT THEY AREN'T NEARLY AS GOOD AS GENERAL GAO'S CHICKEN... WHICH AT 3 DAYS OLD IS BEGINNING TO SUFFER. THE NUTROSYSTEM BOX IS BASICALLY EMERGENCY FOOD....WHAT WE EAT WHEN THERE REALLY IS NOTHING ELSE... IT IS FOOD-- AND NOT TERRIBLE. BLIZZARD TYPE RATIONS...

MUCH AS THE SNOWSTORM WAS A DISAPPOINTING 3 INCHES - SO I COULD NOT PLAY WITH THE NEW PLOW WITH ANY DEGREE OF SUCCESS...I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO SITTING IN MY NICE WARM TRACTOR, PILING UP SNOW FOR A REALLY HUGE SNOWMAN-- FOR THE CALENDAR WINTER SHOT.. AND NO SNOW... YET...
******
WILLIAM ( PHOTOGRAPHER OF CALENDAR FAME) SAID HE HEARD THERE WOUOLD NOT BE MUCH SNOW THIS WINTER- HE MUST HAVE GOT THAT OFF THE INTERNET RIGHT NEXT TO WHERE IT SAID - MORE SNOW THAN LAST YEAR.
THE REASON THE INTERNET CAN BE QUOTED AS RIGHT IS THAT IT DISPLAYS EVERY RUMOR POSSIBLE SO ONE IS BOUND TO BE CORRECT...
***
WILLIAM'S POINT WAS... "I HOPE THIS IS NOT ALL THE SNOW WE GET-- HOW ARE WE GOING TO GET A CHRISTMAS OR WINTER SHOTS FOR NEXT YEAR'S CALENDAR..." AFTER WHAT HE GOES THRU IN PRODUCING THOSE CALENDARS - I AM DELIGHTED TO HEAR HE IS EVEN CONSIDDERING DOING ANOTHER FOR NEXT YEAR.... THEY ARE A THING OF BEAUTY-- AND WE DO HAVE ANOTHER BOX OR TWO LEFT IF ANYONE WANTS MORE. THAT CAALENDAR IS THE PRODUCT OF SOME HEAVY DUTY CREATIVE THINKING,WITH KITTY'S GATHERING, AND WILLIAM'S PHOTOGRAPHY..

WE JUST (6AM) HAD A SCRATCH AT THE DOOR- BLACK FEMALE--- NOT TOO SURE WHO -- EARS NOT TOOOO COLD SO SHE AHS NOT BEEN OUT LONG.---- NOTICEABLY FAT, ROLLY POLLY WAISTLINE.... I WAS THINKING ONE OF THE EUROPE DOGS----.PAM WASN'T 100% EITHER.. NOW SHE IS SAYING MUST BE MARTHA BECAUSE MARTHA CAN OPEN ANY GATE. NICE DOG... GREETED THE 3 PUPS WELL...IT IS GOING TO BE PRETTY FUNNY IF WHEN SHANNON GETS HERE SHE DECIDES THAT IS NOT MARTHA..
*****
BLESS THOSE HARLS... AT LEAST THEY LOOK DIFFERENT.
NO WAY COULD I RAISE GOLDENS OR LABS... I DON'T KKNOW HOW THEY DO IT EVEN WITH COLORED STRING AND NAIL POLISH....
*******
IN SEARCHING THE INTERNET FOR MORE GENES IN EUROPE.. I DID LEARN SOMETHING NEW-- INSTEAD OF TH E USUAL WHELPING BOX WITH THE RIDGES- WHERE A PUP CAN HOPEFULLY HIDE SO MOM DOES NOT SLEEP ON ONE.... THEY HAD A HUGE BOX, BUT INSTEAD OF A WOOD "SHELF", THEY HAD PIPE ABOUT 5" FROM THE SIDE- IT LOOKED VERY EFFICIENT AN D NEAT.

W/R/T CHICKEN BRICKS....I KNOW THERE IS A LATE SHATTING SUNDAY -- FEB 7TH? SO WE DO HAVE A FEW DAYS TO GO BUT IT MAKES ME NERVOUS TO GET TO TEH 25TH AND BE NOT QUITE ½ THERE YET...

ENERGY LEVEL IS PATHETIC
THAT IS THE WORD OF THE DAY.
