SHATTING DAY !!!! MADE IT TO ANOTHER ONE-- I AM THRILLED TO HAVE A BUNCH OF NEW NAMES JOIN US..MY GOAL IS --- FROM 2000 PEOPLE AT $10 EACH.... ALL THE WAY ALONG TO 3 AT A MILLION EACH... AND YOU DIDN'T THINK I WOULD QUIT THERE-- DID YOU?
I AM SO THRILLED TO HAVE EVERYONE SUPPORTING WITH THE 2 NEW LITTERS I BET ARE COMING-- IT IS TOO SOON TO TELL-- AND I DID NOT WRITE IT DOWN BECAUSE I KNEW TEH CAMERA PEOPLE, AS MY EXTERNAL MEMORY DEVICE, WOULD WARN ME. MENTALY I THINK EARLY DECEMBER AND JUST BEFORE CHRISTMAS... WHO KNOWS?
I GET A KICK OUT OF THE OVERNIGHT PEOPLE SLEEPING AWAY BECAUSE TEH AUTHORS HAVE MOVED TO KENNEL 9 AND 10 SO THERE IS NO BITEY FACE HERE AT 2 AM TO DEAL WITH--- THEY WILL PAY UP WHEN WE HAVE NEW PUPS... YOU CAN NOT SLEEP WITH VERY NEW ONES... WE HAVE NOT HAD A PUP GET SLEPT ON-- I SUPPOSE IT COULD HAPPEN- BUT WE DO ALL WE CAN TO AVOID IT...
BEFORE EVERYONE TELLS ME ABOUT WHELPING PENS, THAT IS HOW I LOST A PUP-- IT WAS A LITTER OF 9 INCLUDING ONE PERFECTLY MARKED HARLEQUIN AND ONE WHITE DEAF... GUESS WHICH ONE I LOST??? THE WHITE DEAF WENT ON TO BE PANDYMONIUM WHO DID ALOT OF PHOTO WORK BEFORE BAILEY.. THE MOST EXCITING JOB WAS AT PLUMB ISLAND--- TURN HER LOOSE ON THE BEACH FOR SOME "NATURAL SHOTS " WILLIAM WAS TEH PHOTOGRAPHER--- PROBLEM WAS YOU CAN NOT CALL A DEAF DOG BACK TO THE START.. IT WAS BACK IN THE GOOD OLD DAYS WHEN I COULD RUN-- OR MAYBE I HAD JANINE WITH ME.
JANINE WAS THE MAIN CHASER FOR MY ?COMPANY.... "ANIMAL EPISODES" - I DON;T KNOW IF YOU CAN STILL GOOGLE IT...IT WAS THE CRAZY NONSENSE THAT ( ALONG WITH THE WANT AD MAGAZINE BUSINESS) PUT MY KIDS THRU COLLEGE. JANINE HAS SOME SPECTACULAR CHASES IN HER HISTORY--- 4 PIGS -500 POUND PIGS--DOWN STORROW DRIVE-- 8 LOOSE DONKEYS DOWN HUNTINGTON AVE AMID THE TAXI CABS... AND A REINDEER IN CORRIDORS OF TEH STATE HOUSE.
I THINK MY OTHER DAUGHTER GWEN WAS IN ON THE LOOSE PEACOCK DEAL.... IN THE MERIDIAN HOTEL. PEACOCKS FLY LIKE DRUNKEN 747'S -- I SEEM TO REMEMBER A 2 STORY BALLROOM...
I HAD A LOVELY CARLENE MADE "SUITCASE " IN WHICH I CARRIED HIM... IT WAS SOME 8" PVC PIPE GLUED WITH A 90 DEGREE ANGLE AND 2 HINGED DOORS... THAT TAIL WAS ?4 FEET LONG BY ITSELF...
I DID MANY "JOBS" WITH HIM ONCE AGENCIES KNEW I HAD HIM- AND HE WAS PORTABLE...
FACT OF THE DAY--- THAT LOVELY TAIL FALLS OUT EVERY AUGUST ONE FEATHER AT ATIME.--- AND WE WOULD PICK UP BEAUTIFUL FEATHERS ALL OVER THE YARD-- AND TAKE THEM IN THE SHOWER WITH US-- HOLDING THEM STEM UP, AND SHAMPOOED... THE WOULD BE RESTORED TO PERFECT HEALTH-- THE REST OF THAT STORY IS..... I COULD NEVER GET HIM TO FAN HIS TAIL AT THE CORRECT MOMENT, SO.... ONE YEAR I COLLECTED ALL THE FEATHERS ... ONLY ½ HAVE THE EYE FOR WHICH THEY ARE SO FAMOUS...-- AND A STYLIST IN BOSTON AND I TOOK A STYROFOAM HEAD AND STUCK IN THE FEATHER IN PROPER ORDER SO WE COULD TAPE IT TO ABOX BEHIND AND OVER THE NORMAL FLAT TAIL. IT WORKED... THERE IW A PICTURE AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE ... IN "MY PORTFOLIO" ( BLUE LOOSE LEAF ...? GUEST HOUSE?)
NEXT PROBLEM AS IT GETS COLDER HOW TO HAVE THE TABLE IN SOMEPLACE WARM SO WE DON'T ALL FREEZE..... WE DO HAVE SOME ODD SPACE HEATERS---LIKE TEH KEROSCENE BULLET--
I WILL FIND MY SNOW SUIT-- AFTER WHICH I WILL REALLY NOT BE ABLE TO WALK FAR.
STEVE REPORTS THAT RT 128 ( THE MAIN ROAD AROUND BOSTON) WILL BE CLOSED TODAY FOR DEMOLITION OF SOME BRIDGE... ... IF THAT ROAD WAS BUILT ALL ABOUT THE SAME TIME... I WONDEER WHY THAT ONE BRIDGE WAS CHOSEN..
MAKES ONE WORRY....
SORT OF LIKE..."SO ONLY ONE BEAM FELL OUT OF THE BRIDGE OVER THE MERRIMAC RIVER 10 YEARS AGO... IT WAS NOT A NECESSARY ONE"
OH GREAT !
WASN'T IT JIMMY CARTER WHO SAID OUR BRIDGES AND LEVEYS WERE IN TERRIBLE SHAPE.
HE WAS A PHYSICIST BY EDUCATION...
I WORRY ABOUT THAT--- IF I LIVEED IN FLORIDA I WOLD HAVE SINK HOLES TO WORRY ABOTU ACCORDING TO INGRID...
I AM STRUGGLING WITH IMOVIE... WITH A LITTLE SUCCESS THO I DON'T TOTALLY UNDERSTAND WHY...
