I CAN SEE HOPE AT THE END OF THIS TUNNEL...
2 DAYS AGO WITH 15 PUPS ABSOLUTELY WILD TEARING AROUND TH EHOUSE DESTROYING AND .....CAUSING GREAT ODORS,, .PLUS HAVING THE FLU... I WONDERED IF I WOULD HAVE STREGNTH TO DEAL.
BUT I AM BACK TO FIGHTING STREGNTH NOW.. AND COLLEEN 2 SAID THE DIFFERENCE IN THE PUPS FROM SUNDAY NIGHT TIL LAST NIGHT IS MONUMENTAL
THE BIG DIFFERENCE IS ....
.YESTERDAY WE FED THEM ABOUT 5 AND DID NOT LET THEM INTO THE "TV" ROOM WHERE THE FLUFFIES WERE ALL LINED UP -- I MADE THEM STAY IN THE OFFICE/KITCHEN AREA ( VINYL FLOOR) TO DO THIER THING AND RACE AROUND.. AS THEY BEGAN TO FALL OVER ASLEEP-- WE CARRIED THEM INTO THE TV ROOM AND PUT THEM ON A SOFA.
.
I SAT THERE WITH MY WHIFFLE BAT AND BANGED THE FLOOR IF ANYONE EVEN STARTED TO RUN AROUND.. THEY COULD WALK AROUND TO GO GET A DRINK OR CHANGE BEDS-- BUT THE SLIGHTEST OFFER TO DISRUPT ANOTHER DOG WAS DEALT WITH IMMEDIATELY--- "STOP IT.".. BANG THE FLOOR
THEY GOT THE PICTURE SO BY 7PM WHEN COLLEEN GOT HERE ALL WAS UNDER CONTROL-- AND SHE SAID IT STAYED THAT WAY ALL NIGHT TIL 4AM.
PLUS WHEN THEY START TO PULL THINGS OFF MY DESK AND I SAY "NO" THEY LOOK AT ME- AND AT LEAST NOTICE I AM SAYING SOMETHING..
THIS IS PART OF SERVICE TRAINING-- ANY PUP WHO DOES NOT STOP AND THINK WOULD MAKE A BETTER PET THAN WORKING DOG.
THIS IS ONE POINT WHERE WE CAN BEGIN TO AIM THE PUPSAT THEIR BEST DESTINY.
**************
*NOW THE PROBLEM OF TH E NIGHT
AND IT WAS I BIG ONE.
HAVING RUN THE CHAOS PUPS UP FROM THE BARN-- AND MOVED THE MOXIE PUPS INTO THE HOUSE THEN THE TV ROOM ... JAMIE TRACY AND DEVLIN ALL LEFT-- AND I SAT WITH MY YELLOW BAT---
SO I COUNTED---- 14----- AND RECOUNTED 14 AND THOUGHT 16 MINUS 1 IS NOT 14 SO I COUNTED... MANY MORE TIMES... THEN I GOT OUT MY POLICEMAN'S FLASHLIGHT AND MADE THE ROUNDS OF EVERY CLOSET ETC ON THE FIRST FLOOR OF THIS HOUSE.. NOTHING--- ABSOLUTE PANIC---- I NEEDED HELP QUICKLY - WHICH WOULD BE TRACY ABOUT 2 MILES AWAY - WHO STARTED IN THIS DIRECTION - AND TEX'D JAMIE--- WHO REMINDED ME HILLARY TOOK ONE BUMPY PUP HOME TO HAVE A GOOD BATH/SHOWER-- ----AND 16-2 IS 14
- THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND ALL THE DOGS I EXPECTED TO FIND-- AND IT HAS BEEN SUGGESTED WE HAVE A SIGN OUT LIST-- BUT I WAS SO BUSY CRAWLING AROUND THE FLOOR LOOKING UNDER SOFA'S WITH THE HUGE FLASHLIGHT THAT I NEVER LOOKED AT THE SIGN OUT BOARD
YOU COULD SAY IT WAS MY AGE.... BUT I HAVE DONE THIS KIND OF THING BEFORE I GOT THIS OLD....--- WITH BIGGER THINGS THAN PUPPIES.
.. "JANINE HOW MANY HORSES AM I SUPPOSED TO HAVE IN THE BARN?"*
**********
APPARENTLY I AM NOT GETTING ANY BETTER.
***************
YESTERDAY'S OTHER DISASTERS....
1. WE WERE OUT OF DOG FOOD-
2. IT WAS THE FIRST OF THE YEAR..
FOOD SIMPLY MEANT A TRIP TO SAMS- ( FOR FOOD NOT MADE IN A DIAMOND FACTORY) --
BUT WE COULDN'T DO THAT BECAUSE IT SEEMS EVERYONE'S HORSE TRAILER PLATES EXPIRE ON JAN 1ST-- AND JANINE NEEDED OUR TRAILER --- OR ANYONE ELSE'S ---- SHEWAS SUPPOSED TO TAKE THAT EXTRA HORSE FROM OUR BARN TO CONN.. AND GO FURTHER AND PICK UP 4 MORE RESCUES IN PENNA..--- TO COME HERE...- ONE BEING RESCUED IN THE NAME OF THAT LITTLE GIRL WHO WAS KILLED IN THE SCHOOL SHOOTOUT.-- APPARENTLY A BAY 6 MONTH OLD FOAL??
WHY DID I NOT GET HER INTERESTED IN RAISING HAMPSTERS?
WE GO THRU THIS TRAILER PROBLEM YEARLY-- COMBINATION OF CIRCUMSTANCES-
THE DURANGO (CURRENTLY MINE) IS INSURED WITH--- GEICLO-- WHO DOES NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO SELL HORSE TRAILER INS IN MASS.
JANINE-S LITTLE BMW WILL NOT PULL A HORSE TRAILER- BUT SHE IS INS WITH COMMERCE WHO DOES INS HORSE TRAILERS.
SO.... WHO OWNS THE HORSE TRAILER AND WHO SHOULD OWN THE HORSE TRAILER? AND WHERE IS THE TITLE ANYWAY
EVERY YEAR WE GO THRU THIS.
EVERY YEAR THERE IS SOMETHING TO DISRUPT WHAT WOULD BE NORMAL--
IF WE WERE NORMAL..
***********
I WAS TO MEET JANINE AT THE INS COMPANY--- THEY ARE NOT MY FAVORITE PEOPLE IN THE WORLD-- THEIR VERY OCCUPATION BOTHERS ME.. REGARDLESS OF WHAT I HAVE FOR PAPERWORK-- IT IS NEVER QUITE RIGHT...
SO I WAS VERY PLEASED -- AS I WENT UP IN THE ELEVATOR TO NOTICE THE ELEVATOR PERMIT HAD EXPIRED IN -- MAY OF 2011-- SO WHEN THEY TOLD ME-- AGAIN.. I /JANINE NEEDED SOME OTHER PAPERS..
. I COULD SAY "BY THE WAY.. YOUR ELEVATOR PERMIT IS EXPIRED."
THAT GAVE ME GREAT PLEASURE.
***********************
MEGAN....THE DOG FOOD IS IN THE BACK OF THE COA VAN.. WE HAD TO TAKE TH E BIG VAN BECAUSE WITH 14 PUPS IN THE HOUSE THE EXTRA 5 ADULTS MIGHT BE THE STRAW THAT CAUSED THERESA TO COLLAPSE...
AND IT IS STILL IN THE VAN--
*******************
LORI MANAGED TO GET CHICKEN FOOD WHILE THERESA SEARCHED FOR THE
TRAILER TITLE
******************
LEAVING THE TV ON ALL NIGHT WHILE ASLEEP CAN GIVE ME SOME REALLY STRANGE NOTIONS WHICH I HAVE TO FIGHT. LAST NIGHT THERE WAS A LONG "INFOMERCIAL" ABOUR SPRINKLING STUFF ON FOOD SO IT DIDN'T MAKE YOU FAT.
I WONDERED IF IT WOULD RUIN THE FLAVOR OF THE CHEESCAKE....
