now here is a problem we could all enjoy ....
dog fest--- our usual ben and jerry's ice cream set up is unavailable-- - linda found richardson's icecream can be had in 3 gallon tubs... all well and good....
i went thru a phase of commercial whipped cream makers-- and bought a few... a few... because apparentley there are at least 2 different kinds/makes requiring different carteridges for whipper uppers-- i fell into my usual binary disarrayand gave up trying to get the right cartridge with eht right cannister... i thnk the last one to make one 1/2 work wqs richard- who blew cream in an interesting form all over the kitchen sink one day.
don't ask... i already lost teh directions... THE DIRECTIONS SAID SOMETHING ABOUT " TRY WHIPPING MAPLE SYRUP IN THE CREAM--"-- SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD OUTDOOR PROJECT...
could be a good project for tomorrow afternoon-- unless we get teh fork lift stuck again.
*****
that fork lift is handy-- thank you jerri and steve#4-- the fact that it is decorated purple is a warning to all truck drivers, that we don't really know what we are doing with it.
yesterday we got delivery of the pallet of poland spriongs water- teh one cup 8 oz size--- i tire of picking up 1/2 bottles of teh normal.... i also got a water disopenseer and 10 of eh 5 gallon size-- with the triangle shape paper drinking cups-- now that is supposed to last us past dog fest.
++++
i had a second call from a woman who must place her dane with someone.. she is having to move-- someting about her widows SSA was reduced and she has to move- she says a 3 year old nice female. thAT HAS BEEN "HELPFUL TO HER IN GETTING AROUND" ( NOT ONE OF OUR DOGS) she is currently in nashua area..IF YOU ARE INTERESTED HER NAME IS IN MY SUDUKO BOOK- REMIND ME.

MAY DID OFFICIALLY GO GET TEH BASKET AND BRING IT TO ME YESTERDAY... WHEN THERE WAS A BREAK IN GENERAL ACTIVITY ( PAULA CHAOS AND BENTLEY) I DID SLIDE TEH BASKET AWAY FROM ME - AND SHE IMMEDIATELY WENT AND GOT IT, SWAPPING IT FOR A RELALY NICE COOKIE... I THINK SHE HAS "IT" BUT IT IS TOUGH TO REDO IT WITH TOO MUCH ACTIVITY AROUND....
****
LINDA WAS A SUPER SIDEKICK FOR MAIL CALL LAST NIGHT... TEH FACT SHE WAS NEW AT TEH TASK MEANT SHE HAD A WHOLE NEW BUNCH OF QUESTIONS/COMMENTS-- IT IS SHOCKING TO ME HOW FAST TEH CP CROWD CAN COME UP WITH VIDEOS... WE GOT TO TALKING ABOUT THE DAY I RODE TEH HIGH WHEEL ( PENNY FARTHING ) BIKE INTO THE OFFICE WITH SHEILA AND TRACY HOLDING ME VERTICAL-- SOMEBODY CAME UP WITHTHE VIDEO... I WISH YOU WOULD SEND THAT TO MY EMAIL... IT WAS A VERY FUNNY EPISODE --- TOTAlly out of control.
****
bad news of teh day/year/decade... we have a pup with elbow displasia actually probably 2 pups...-- we have been darn lucky with very few genetic problems in about 400 pups born here--- this has caused me to spend hours pouring over bloodlines and watching how every dog moves around here... now i am a nervous wreck trying to see any irregularities in the way dogs move. teh best "mover" on the property so far is sizzle.... who has irregular heat cycles....
tiz a puzzlement.
***
the pups from europe all come with ratings of the hips and elbows of teh parents right on the reg papers...
it is some help... but it is possibel for 2 hd-A hip parents to produce a hd-C hip pup... i think hd-C means no visable signs of displasia.-- but it certainly means it is not hd-A.
***
so far i have relied on my observation in situations where a no is a no-- and a maybe yes- has required dvm...george's additional comments or xrays... and teh no's are perfectly good service dogs-- but i have always tried to save teh best for breeding. otherwise you go down hill genetic wise..

I HAVE FOUND THAT ALCOHOL SWABS/WIPES ARE THE SAME AS LENS WIPES AND THEY ARE CHEAPER. I GET MINE (RELION BRAND)@ WALMART...100 FOR $1.00. UNFORTUNATELY, THEY AREN'T ANY EASIER TO OPEN. I USE THEM FOR GLASSES, CELLPHONE SCREEN AND PORTABLE PHONE.
