i have this rule around here-- you are allowed to discus only one ailment and one medication per day.. this started when a veteran was here with 140 meds per day.. and some people have so many diagnosis .. there is barely time for normal conversation . unless you are a medical person, listening to all those latin names is pointless..
so today instead of complaining about ailments, i choose to discuss the good and ignore the bad...
my left leg is pretty good today... it is functioning really well without complaining.-- and ... it is a fairly normal pink. the rest of me has some really uninteresting problems. ...... i know my husband would quickly say " if you's loose 20 pounds you would feel better" ---
i know that... darn... and i even gave up the klondike bARS WHICH GOT ME WHERE I AM... WEIGHT WISE.

IN N EFFORT TO BE MORE AACTIVE-- AND HAVE SHEILA'S HUSBAnd HAVE KIND THOUGHTS ABOUT OUR NEXT PROJECT... I AM GOING TO CLEAN OUT THE AREA AT THE TOP OF THE SPIRAL STAIRCASE IN THE TRAINING ROOM -- WHERE HIS COMPANY IS GOING TO PUT IN A 1/2 BATH. IT IS THE EQUIVALENT OF THE OVERFLOW ROOM HERE... IT OVERFLOWETH
ONE OF THE THINGS I THINK IS THERE IS A HANK OF ROPE THAT IS EVEN HUGER THAN THE ROPE HANGING OVER MY HEAD.. I ALREADY TRIED TO MAKE A MONKEY FIST OF THIS STUFF AND THE SOCCERBALL I HAVE FOR THE MIDDLE IS TOO BIG..
AND THEN I REMEMBERED -- I HAVE SOME REAAAAAALY BIG ROPE SOMEWHERE... I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS ENOUGH... BUT AT LEAST THE CONCEPT HAS INSPIRED ME TO GO CLEAN THAT AREA..
****
THEN OF COURSE THERE IS THE DOWNSTAIRS SHOWER.... IT HAS HAD AN INTERESTING LIFE..
IT WAS RETIRED DURING THE TIME WHEN YOU TURNED IT ON AND WATER SQUIRTED OUT OF THE WALL ABOUT AS FOOT IN FRONT OF THE SHOWER... I CAN NOT REMEMGBER FIXING THAT--- SO THERE MIGHT BE SIGNIFICANT DAMPNESS INSIDE THAT WALL... BUT THE OTHER PROBLEM IS THAT THE DRAIN PIPE JUST GOES OUTSIDE THE BUILDING ABOUT A FOOT... AND STOPS-- I CAN NOT IMAGINE WHAT DISASTER HAPPENED THAT CAUSED US TO DISCONNECT THE PIPE FROM EITHER A DRY WELL FOR THE SHOWER-- OR THE SEPTIC SYSTEM... AT ANY RATE THE DRAIN GOES NO WHERE..
JUST ANOTHER DETAIL THAT MAYBE BRIAN AND COMPANY CAN FIGURE OUT...
MEGAN WANTS TO PUT IN A DOG WASHING STATION... LEAVING NO 1/2 NORMAL SHOWER FOR WHAT IS AN OFFICIAL APPARTMENT. I SAY THE DOG WASH SHOULD BE IN THE LAUNDRY ROOM AREA--- WE WASH DOGS ONLY WHEN THEY GET COVERED WITH MUD.
MUD = SPRING SUMMER FAll -- we do not need to wash ice off the dogs in winter -- so juST BRUSH THEM.. THEY HAVE SHORT HAIR.
BACK WHEN THEY WERE BUILDING THIS PLACE-- WE LIVED IN THE BACK OF A PICKUP-- AND JANINE LIVED IN THE FRONT OF THE HORSE TRAILER--( THAT IS IN HER BOOK) AT ANY RATE THAT PICK UP CAMPER HAD A TINY CORNER "FACILITY" WITH W/C SINK AND SHOWER IN A TINY AREA.. I WONDER.....
******
I CERTAINLY WILL GIVE HIM A FREE HAND... THEY HAVE DONE A FANTSTIC JOB ON THE SEVERAL PROJECTS THEY HAVE DONE HERE SO FAR... THE KENNEL IS WARMER THAN THE HOUSE... AND MORE EVENLY HEATED.
**************
AND THEN THERE ARE THE 2 DONKEYS-- THEY MADE IT UP TO THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE YESTERDAY BEGGING FOR CARROTS.... SHADES OF MARY BRAYING AT THE FRONT DOOR.
THEY SEEM VERY LEVEL HEADED...
*********
TOMORROW IS SH#TTING SUNDAY-- I AM TOLD WE MAY HAVE A CROWD... I AM ALSO TOLD EARLENE WILL NOT BE HERE...
IT WILL BE DIFFICULT MANAGING WITHOUT OUR #1 GREETER.
