I AM GOING TO HAVE TO GET A BIGGER SHOT GLASS-- THE ONE I HAVE IS CERTAINLY OF A "GENEROUS " SIZE... HOWEVER....AMID TEH MANY CARDS AND GIFTS-- THE BOTTLES OF BRANDY ARE NOW LINED UP ON MY BUREAU.
I REMEMBER ...... MY FATHER SAYING "THERE'S NO FOOL LIKE A YOUNG PERSON WHO DRINKS, AND AN OLD ONE WHO DON'T"
I DON'T THINK I HAVE RECIEVED AS MANY CARDS IN THE PREVIOUS 79 BIRTHDAYS ADDED TOGETHER....AS I RECIEVED YESTERDAY AND I AM TOLD THAT IS "SO FAR"--
ONE OF THEM SAID 108 WHICH I THOUGHT WAS A GOOD GOAL, UNTIL I FOUND I HAD IT UPSIDE DOWN... 80! ... SO MANY CARDS ..ALL DIFFERENT... ALSO FROM ALL OVER THE STATES/WORLD-- I HOPE WE CAN FIND THE STRINGS WE HAD TO HANG THE SPIRIT STICKS.
I ALSO APPRECIATE ALL THE CONTRIBUTIONS TO COVER MY EXPENSES WITH THE SWEAR BEAR... I SHOULD BE ALL SET FOR AT LEAST A MONTH OF CUSSING..
************
SPEAKING OF MONTHS....... I AM TOLD THAT THIS MONTHS SELL OUT OF THE 2100 CHICKEN BRICKS IS 60TH SELL OUT OF THE BASIC " PAYROLL" BRICKS...
ANOTHER GIFT FOR CARLENE - THIS MONTH IS THE 60TH CONSECUTIVE MONTH THAT CHICKEN BRICKS HAVE SOLD OUT! THAT'S 5 ENTIRE YEARS... THANKS TO EVERYONE THAT SUPPORTS SDP FOR MAKING THIS MILESTONE HAPPEN!!! WHAT A FAMILY WE HAVE!!
Thanks much,--- Tina
WITHOUT THOSE BRICKS....WE WOULD NOT BE.....
WELL WE MIGHT ...BE... BUT WE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO DONATE THE DOGS AS WE DO NOW... SO YOU HAVE TO FIGURE THE 2100 BRICKS YOU ALL BUY IS MEETING THE PAYROLL SO WE CAN DONATE-- WE CERTAINLY DO HAVE SOM E "HEAVY HITTERS " IN THE GROUP-- FOR WHICH I AM MOST THANKFUL....... BUT OUR STEADY $10 A MONTH CROWD IS A VERY SIGNIFICANT PART OF THE PICTURE... AND ACCORDING TO THE COMMENTS ON THE CARDS--BEING PART OF SDP HAS ADDED GREATLY TO THE LIVES OF MORE PEOPLE THAN JUST THOSE WHO GET THE DOGS... NOT JUST TEH ELDERLY , INFIRM AND ISOLATED BUT ALSO THE
FULLY EMPLOYED WHO MANAGE A SPLIT SCREEN AT A BORING JOB...

JANINE'S FLAT TIRES WAS TEH ECITEMENT OF YESTERDAY- AS JERRI AD I CAME UP RT 95 WITH THE COSTCO LOAD-- THERE WAS A TRRAILER PULLED OVER AND THE WHITE CAR PULLIN GIT LOOKED LIKE JANINE'S ERN LOGO... I PULLED ACROSS LANES AND BACKED UP-- IT WAS... SO SHE JOINED US-- WITH WANDA AND OLIVER- TO AWAIT THE TOW TRUCK.. A TRUCK IN FRONT OF HER SPILLED STUFF AND SHE GOT 2 FLAT TIRES-- SHE ALSO GOT A PHOTO OF THE LOGO ON THE TRUCK SOMEHOW... JERI AND I BROUGHT WANDA AND OLIVER HOME WITH US SO SHE DID NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH THEM- I THINK THEY ENDED UP IN THE "WHITE HOUSE"
****
IF THERE IS A CROWD TODAY MAYBE WE CAN GET SOMEONE TO PAINT THE "WHITE HOUSE" -- AT LEAST WITH
A PRIMER COAT.. A CREW FROM GE IS COMING THE 14TH- MAYBE THEY CAN FINISH IT THEN...
