THIS COULD BE A VERY BAD DAY


AOL HAS SEEN FIT TO SEND ME A "WORD OF THE DAY" AND TODAY'S WORD IS regurgitate..


WITH 30 ODD DOGS ON THE GROUND- THIS COULD BE A VERY MESSY DAY.


WHATEVER--- BRING IT ON...

****************

ALSO BRING ON ALL THE PEOPLE WHO BAIL ME OUT- PREFERABLY SOME LIFTERS--- DARN PLYWOOD GETS HEAVIER EACH DAY

***********

THE STOVE ARRIVED WITHOUT INCIDENT--

LORI AND MEGAN WERE HERE TO HELP- WE WORKED PERFECTLY TOGETHER--- THEY WORRIED AND I SAT- ON THE TRACTOR

POINTING OUT ONCE AGAIN- ONE CAN ACCOMPLISH AMAZING THINGS IF ONE HAS THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT.


IT IS IN A BIG BOX-- CLEARLY LABELED "MADE IN CHINA"WHICH MADE ME THINK.....

I CERTAINLY AGREE THAT MOVING ALL THOSE JOBS TO CHINA IS A VERY BAD THING--- EXCEPT IT ALSO MOVES ALL THE POLUTION TO CHINA .

I AM TOLD THEY DON'T GIVE A RIP ABOUT THINGS LIKE TRASH AND POLUTION. I HAVE SEEN PHOTO'S OF THEIR DUMPS- EVEN I WOULD NOT VENTURE FORTH.


WITH THE PREVAILING WINDS IT IS ONE MORE REASON NOT TO LIVE IN CALIFORNIA- BECAUSE AIRBORNE POLUTION ALL COMES OUR WAY ANYWAY.

GEORGE MYERS CALLS THIS DD MY SEMI AWAKE RAMBLE- OR SOMETHING


CERTAINLY TRUE TODAY

********

I WROTE UP 3 OF OUR "GRADUATES " STORIES AND I THINK THERESA FILLED OUT THE OFFICIAL PAPERWORK FOR TOH - KARMA, ARROW AND VAYLU- ALL PAIRED AND WORKING BEAUTIFULLY-

WE HAVE 4 MORE THAT ARE A LITTLE OUTSIDE THE STRICT GRANT PROVISIONS ..

I SPOKE TO MARK (TOH) WHO SAID LOUIS WOULD BE IN TOUCH WITH US- AS OUR CONTACT----AND THAT HAS NOT HAPPENED YET- SO I AM OPERATING WITHOUT DIRECT SUPERVISION .

I AM MAKING DECISIONS BASED ON THE 2 APPLICANTS THEY SAY THEY WILL SPONSOR ALREADY.

*********

FOR INSTANCE--- BUD2 SUGGESTS WE DO THE GASTROPLEXY WHEN WE HAVE THESE PUPS SPAYED AND NEUTERED-- HE HAS A GOOD POINT- AND WITH THE HELP OF TOH'S MONEY WE COULD DO THAT.


I KNOW GEORGE WILL BE AS KIND AS HE CAN--- BUT HE DOES HAVE TO RUN A BUSINESS-

************

TRHERESA IS LINEING UP All that- and we will need "recovery room" sitters-

----for those of you new to this DD--- if at all possible i do not let a pup wake up out of anesthesia without someone on the floor at their head----

just another of my neurosis--

we had a perfect dog "brownie" who was visiting in penna and needed surgery on his tail- and came out of anesthesia in a cage- banging his head repeatedly as they all do - ever since the slightest metal noise would panic him-- a garbage can lid was the worst--- i do not want to take any chance on that again...


so if you can sit with pups let theresa know... i don't think she has a date yet-- but we have a bunch to do-

***

starting with crimson -- charlie and teal- the three headed for a specific person so far- it is tough to line up the personalities until they get a little older.


charlie seems to love little kids and we have an interested vet with 5 kids-- we do not have any paperwork on him yet-- i hope he is a serious candidate because for once we may have a logical pup. and charlie is a big boy .... big time.

***********

no cut and paste-


brooksby village has asked if we could bring mary in to their "senior residence"-- which of course - we could--- would be fun and interesting--- a few details to work out-- like she will not fit in an elevator--- unless they have a frieght elevator i don't know about. when they asked, i am not sure they know she is a mammoth donkey and not one of those cute little mini's



PRISCILLA'S HUSBAND IS RECOVERING FROM TRIPPLE BYPASS -- BEING AN RN SHE MAKES IT SOUND A BIT MORE USUAL THAN IT SOUNDS TO ME...
