i must have slept well as i have nothing to complain about 
this morning.. and my only brilliant observation so far is  ...
"coffee will be extremely weak for those who forget to put 
grinds in the little bvasket"
  if that is the state of my mind.....i hope i am not asked to 
make any earth shattering decisions
************
what we did yesterday?
.... work on the santa shot for the calendar we are hoping to 
get out..
well..... my other brilliant observation from yesterday... is  
how well educated bailey is--- and what a long way i have to go to get opal and 
bentley anywhere near her  capabilities..
. "just explain what you want me to do ... then 
got out of my way and let me do it."
she  carefully climbed the ladder to the wagon's seat-- then 
patiently  sat while we dressed her in santa's outfit-- then undressed her and 
politely walked down the ladder.. job well done--- no excitement-- no 
confusion
now bentley and opal are still in the stage of " are you 
talking to me???"
i hate to think of trying to do that with  another dog.  a 
good 5 feet in the air ---- perfectly relaxed and trusting us...
*******
so i will just put in mark's production photo's of us trying 
to get the harness , antlers and dogs in position.. 
I've added new pictures to the “Photos of Service Dog Project” 
site. Come check it out at http://servicedogproject.shutterfly.com/.
 then  click on the blue word PICTURES   then choose the santa 
shots...

william decided we did not have to tip the ramp... so we were 
at least on the flat.. note a few things... hilary and megan are shoeless and 
confined to the white canvas... bonnie was in charge of rudolph's  red nose-- 
and getting it perched on perry's nose.
************
 the other huge excitement is that i heard from some pets 
megastore in australia who is sending the  de fleaing  supplies ..  they should 
arrive by 10/2  
that would be tomorrow---
why austraila?    on the advice of an adi member from 
australia, i started on allwormer- which at the time i could not get in the 
usa--  shipping is free-- and they have very good prices--  it becomes a memory 
thing-- i don't have to remember another name and  passowrd...
*************
we have a vet visit coming --- maybe today??? 
george????
perry has a red bum.... bentley has a fussy nose ..... and 
lulu has a goopy eye
is there a cheaper by the dozen rate???
*******************

Sunday
