IT IS A GOOD THING PUPPIES ARE CUTE-- OTHERWISE I WOULD KICK THEM ALL OUT OF HERE.
MOMMY HAS FIGURED OUT HOW TO OPEN THE TV ROOM DOOR-
DOESN'T SOUND LIKE MUCH-- BUT
THEY TOTALLY ENJOYED ALL THE CRINKLY PAPERS IN THE SCRAPBASKETS--- AND SUCH A HAPPY NOISE AS THEY SHREADED THEM.
FORTUNATELY I DON'T THINK THEY MADE ANY ELIMINATIONS IN THE ROOM- AT LEAST I DID NOT KNEEL IN ANY AS I CRAWLED AROUND RETRIEVING MY HUNDREDS OF FLASH CARDS WHICH I FLASH IN THE FUTILE ATTEMPT TO LEARN SIGN LANGUAGE.
NOR DID THEY TIP OVER THE JUG OF MARBLES THAT I PUT IN THE MONKEY FISTS-- THEY JUST DRAGGED THE STRING AROUND.
***************
AND THE FIRST EMAIL I OPENED WAS SOMEONE FROM TOPSFIELD WANTING TO HELP WITH THE DOGS--
YES !!!
WE CAN TAKE HELP WHERE WE FIND IT.
TROUBLE IS-- IT IS NOT CONVENIENT FOR VOLUNTEERS TO COME HERE AT 4AM TO GET THE PUPS BACK ON AN EVEN KEEL.
THIS MORNING I AM HAPPY TO REPORT THE WORMER WORKED AS THE 15 LITTLE PILES OF SPAGETTI DEMONSTRATED.
AND FORTUNATELY THEY STAY IN BED FOR THE 192 SECONDS IT TAKES ME TO SCOOP WITH THE CARDBOARDS EVERYONE PREPARED.
THIS ELIMINATES THE MORNING "HAPPY JUMP AND SMEAR" WHICH MAKES LITTERS OF PUPS SO UNATTRACTIVE.
I ONCE THOUGHT WE HAD ENOUGH CEREAL BOXES CUT INTO 3X5 RECTANGLES.
I DON'T THINK THAT ANY MORE.
THEN COMES THE NEWSPAPERS-- I THINK WE HAVE ENOUGH OF THOSE .. WITH THIS VINYL FLOOR THE FRONT ROOM IS SECOND ONLY TO THE MISSISSIPPI FLOOD PLAIN--
THE MAN WHO INSTALLED THIS FLOOR THUGHT I WAS NUTS TO HAVE HIM LEAVE 1" TURNED UP ALONG THE WALLS.
SO FAR THE 1" DIKE STAYS AHEAD OF THE OVERNIGHTLY FLOODING.
MEGAN AND I HAVE THE WASHING OF THIS FLOOR DOWN
TO A 4 MINUTE CHORE- MOP SLOP AND SLURP WITH THE WET VAC-- AND WE ARE SWEET SMELLING ONCE AGAIN.
*****************
NOW THAT WE NAVE THE ELIMINATION REPORT OUT OF THE WAY..
****************
CHARLIE -- ALL 17 POUNDS OF HIM-- FILLED THE RED PRAM AND WAS DANM CUTE AS WE WALTZED HIM THRU COSTCO.
I HAD TOLD ALL THOSE EMPLOYEES I WOULD DO THAT--AND WE SURE DID. WE MADE ALOT OF PEOPLE SMILE.
IT IS ALWAYS INTERESTING TO SEE THE FEW WHO DON'T EVEN SMILE AT THE SIGHT OF A CUTE HARL PUP IN A BRITISH NANNY'S PRAM.
THE ONLY IMPROVEMENT WOULD BE A LACE TRIM-- WE HAD ONE SOMEWHERE..
*******************
DID I REPORT YETERDAY THAT BERNARD HAD A MEDICAL ISSUE AND PUT OFF HIS ARRIVAL FOR A BIT.
NOT A BAD THING --- FOR US ANYWAY--- IT WILL GIVE US MORE TIME TO WORK MANNY PAST THE MIRROR IN THE MEAT COUNTER--- AND GET TO THE BIGGER ONE IN TH E FRESH VEGGIE COUNTER.
*****************
POLLY AND BOB ARE BACK AND SURVIVED THEIR EUROPE JAUNT.
NOW IF WE COULD GET ANNE BACK FROM DENMARK WE WOULD BE IN FULL SWING.
**************
THURSDAY TRIP-
BLACK PANTS AND SDP SHIRT MIGHT BE THE ORDER OF THE DAY??? WE DO HAVE ENOUGH HATS- AT LEAST TO HAVE THE PUPPY MANAGERS MATCH.
I THINK WE NEED PAUL IN NORMAL SHIRT/PANTS- BECAUSE IF THEY ARE SHORT DOGS. HE COULD THEN BE BAILEY'S "VETERAN"
OTHERWISE SHE WILL BE THE WANDERRING DEMO DOG- WHICH SHE DOES SO WELL/
AND WE ARE GOING TO
BRIDGEWATERS AT SOUTH STREET SEAPORT RIGHT AT THE BOTTOM OF MANHATTAN
BATTERY PARK IS RIGHT NEAR-- AND I HOPE I CAN CONTACT MY COUSIN IN LAW WARRIE PRICE TO SEE IF SHE CAN PULL A STRING AND LET US RUN THE DOGS BEFORE WE GO IN THE RESATURANT.
PARKING 2 VANS IN THAT AREA IS FROWNDED UPON.
WARRIE IS THE DESIGNER AND PRESIDENT OF THE BATTERY PARK XXXWHATEVERS... AND IF ANYONE CAN GET US PAST THAT -- SHE CAN...
.... IF I CAN GET HOLD OF HER-- LAST SEEN IN ITALY. BUT EMAILS ARE EMAILS.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE IMPRESSED--- GOOGLE WARRIE PRICE
***************
MEGAN DID TH E MANNIE THING YESTERDAY AT THE MEAT COUNTER AT SHAWS ---- I DID NOT GET ANY REPORT ON WHAT HAPPENED-- ( I SUPPOSE THERE IS A SMALL POSSIBILITY SHE IS STILL THERE)
