 from the "we'll send you a second one free" department on early morning tv.....  there is one today  that i think probably works

some water reservoir sprayed in front of a fan   as a personal air conditioner...  

must work the same as the misters we use in our barn --- and disney world uses them  for people in line....  concept is good...

i have always suggested a simple fan. and use a hand sprayer  to make  water dropl;ets 

in front of the fan. will cool.  the air right around. you.

 it looks like this year they have made a personal size one.. i think it was artic air-- with 2 variety. $29 and $19.  ( water tank over of? beside?)
just out of curiosity i am tempted to order one..

work order for the day/. lynn has said today is desk moving and cabinet removal  day..

 and i was to. be in charge of the  soup spoon recovery department .

you have no idea...... so let me frame the reference.....

10 years ago-- when the cameras started-- we used to do sunday stew. 12 to 4.  and i made chicken stew.. the easy way BUNCH. OF THINGS ... IN. AN IRON POT... and over the fire...

this disintegrated to  a more pot luck arraingement... and people brought slow cookers with some great goop-- and a serving spoon.

the various goops were wonderfully popular, and teh empty slow cookers.... for the most part... went home--- but rarely did the serving spoons.

these eventusl;lyu got warshed and stored/ i e  crammed into 2 drawers in the  t tent and 4 drawers in the kitchen,,, 

with the extras  tripple hanging on "S" hooks on th e pot holders.

todays concept is to gather  the contents of all drawers  and run them thru the

 dishwasher before putting them in a plastic  container in the clean cellar-- so. that when you need one in the kitchen , you  will. not be able to find one.

we have a very similar problem with treats--- i have been moaning about no desert pickings for a month .. and last night...  matt ... in his most pathetic voice

asked where did all the snacks go----- which is why he shows up for mail call in the first place---- mail call is munchie time.. 

except when THEY hide teh munchies in the cellar... where the chosen few get to pick out all the milk chocolate....

it gets even worse.... i have to look forward to days when donna works.... she lets me have my own Kleenex-- and sometimes even a roll of paper towels..

now i could go downstairs and search. for my own chocolate covered biscotti'...

 except there is no place for me to nap to rest up for getting myself back up the stairs.

life is. complicated...

---- 

if mark arrives today. with a few hours tractor time.. we might be able to  order a truckload of sand-- and begin to look excitingly like A PUPPY SAND PILE.

OF COURSE YOU ALL. REALIZE  A GOOD INDIAN WOMAN CAN MOVE AND SET UP HER TIPI IN ABOUT AN  HOUR... ALL BY HERSELF....

... MOVING THE TIPI WILL HOPEFULLY BE ON CAMERA. 

 AS WILL... HOPEFULLY THE DRIVEWAY,--- LYNNS OFF ICE WINDOW, ---THE FOUNTAINS AND THE.PUPPY  PLAY YARD...

LET US PRAY !!
