APRIL 24 2018
 JERI AND STEVE HAD TO LEAVE EARLY FOR  OHIO--THEY ALWAYS MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE AROUND HERE-- STARTING WITH THE PURPLE FORK LIFT--- odd to say but the preparations for dog fest start now.  we need parking in that back "lot"   and grass would be soooooo nice... THat meant   TEH DESTRUCTION AND REMOVAL OF TEH NIEGHBOR'S SHED--  IT WAS REALLY A FALLING DOWN SHED-- NO ROOF... BUT FULL OF "STUFF"  AND SITTING PARTIALLY IN TEH BACK DRIVEWAY-- THE NEIOGHBOR WAS/IS HAPPY TO GET RID OF IT...  JERI, STEVE AND TANNER CERTAINLY HELPED GET RID OF 1/2 OF IT.....  

 TOM AND I WILL GO TO THE "TRANSFER STAtion  wit that load and  GET MORE TODAY--- maybe....  the other push is to go to the manure/topsoil place and gt the grass project planted becasue it is supposed to be a nice rain tomorrow...-- then thursday david #1 said he would be here  and maybe  attach teh well to some faucets so we coudl water my flat field project and have grass by dog fest...  if i could possibly get some wildflowers growing in  places i don't want to cut... it  would be lovely... the distinction between wildfloweras an=d weeds has always escaped me.  but i will try.
my concept of gardening is to plop a pile of topsoil  and mush it once with the bucket.of the tractor-- then throw seed and hope.  it would be nice around that new path to see if we can get some patches growing..
******
the steve/jeri fork lift made an attempt at the garage- and moved up to the ice house   3 cartons of calendars we did not know we had...  they  should go in my car to be given away-- quickly---  they are lovely--  and we will do some in matts  but move the rest out.  
****
THE FEEDBAGS ARE ON THEIR WAY - TINA   is very good at organizing that stuff WITH MR MOON.......  the purchase is a carlene financial project--(to benifit sdp-- but my risk) - and i have lined up the usefull bag production with pens paperclips  asprins gloves,tye wraps... and things like that... to go in them... you can notice the prototype are being used daily to feed teh donkeys-- but they are very useful  in replacing the ubiquitous  plastic bag for shopping...  we legnthed the strap so it can be "worn"  across chest style-- sort of a back pack on your side that you can  have access to..
should be interesting.
****
NOW IT IS ABOTU THE OLD GLASSES PROJECT.... MANY PEOPLE HAVE A PILE OF OLD GLASSES NO LONGER USED... IN TEH PAST WE HAVE HAD A BOXFULL HERE-- AND AS IT TURNS OUT... MANY PEOPLE HELP THEMSELVES-- WHICH IS FINE... THEY Are getting used... but it is getting to the  point of collecting some  more to replentish the supply... so if you have any sitting around doing notihtng,, pack them off to us... someone will use them here !!  -- this GLASS PROJECT   started because  a man was here in the living room  and about to write a check for a donation--- but couldn't because he left his glasses somewhere....  i don't want that to happen again.... SO WE HAVE A BOX OF A MISC COLLECTION OF GLASSES AVAILABLE AT ALL TIMES.
***
THIS VIDEO PROJECT-- WITH ANNE-- TO SEE IF THERE IS A WAY TO GET "SHUT IN"  PEOPLE ONTO THE EXPLORE CAMERAS ( MINUS ANY COMMERCIALS) INSTERAD  OF THE VARIOUS NEW PROGRAMS-- I HAVE A LIST OF PLACES TO GO WITH  BENTLEY AND SIZZLE--  THE NEWBURY PORT SENIOR HOAM WAS SOOOO POPULAR... WE SHOUDL REPLICATE THAT IF POSSIBELE.

Pixie is going to be featured on the Florida vet website tomorrow. My girl is a Miracle and she’s so special to them as much as she is me. What an honor for her. If it wasn’t for them she wouldn’t be here today, they saved her life. We are so grateful but to be asked for this is so touching. Pixie touched their hearts as she does many. ❤️
