concept for the day
jerry lewis ---on contracts
"i can get the same lawyer who wrote the contract to write up how to break it-- i rely on a handshake"
*******
which brings to mind the specific details of conversation.... i have to be more careful on several counts-- this may be a bit boring, but...... riding around yesterday with sheolia looking at hice ( that is plural house) we came to a turn i suggested we go right because we had not BEEN DOWN THERE--- BECAUSE I KNEW AT THE BOTTOM OF THAT HILL WAS THE ENTRANCE TO FERNCROFT --- SHE SAID YES WE HAVE--- AND BET ME $5-- SO I TOOK IT-- AND SHE TOOK THE RIGHT TURN, WENT ABOUT 500 FEET AND SAID -- "SEE THAT IS WHERE WE TURNED IN TO THAT DEVEOPEMENT--- "
GRANTED IT WAS PROBABLY 17 FEET LOWER IN ALTITUDE-- BUT IT WAS NOT THE ----DOWN--- I HAD IN MIND... SO NOW I OWE HER $7
AND THEN THERE IS THE LANGUAGE BARRIER PROBLEM...
IT HAS BEEN DECIDED THAT THE USE OF ANY LANGUAGE CONSIDERED "SALTY" WHILE THE MICROPHONE IS ON WILL COST THE USER $1 IN THE SALT SHAKER.
H3LL---- I AM GOING TO GO BROKE !!!
SO I HAVE ALOT TO WORRY ABOUT TODAY
***********
ON THE POSITIVE SIDE....EARLENE UNCOVERED THE IRON STOVE INTHE KITCHEN--- I DON'T HAVE A CLUE WHAT WAS THERE - OR WHERE SHE PUT IT ALL- BUT IT IS UNCOVERED. I HAVE NOT SEEN THAT STOVE IN 2 MAYBE 3 YEARS. IF THE CAMERA GETS SWUNG IN THAT DIRECTION YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE IT.
AND SHE STARTED THE BABIES ON GOATS MILK... SHE IS THE ULTIMATE BOTTLE FEEDER...
*********
THE ENVELOPES WITH QUESTIONS HAVE BEGUN TO COME IN... IT MAKES MAIL CALL MORE INTERESTING I THINK... CERTAINLY EASIER ON MY PART-- AND THEN EARLENE PULLED A CARD FROM THE RETREAT PILE-- AND WE CALLED SOMEONE WHO WAS HAVING A DOWN DAY AND WAS CHEERED GREATLY BY THE PHONE CALL. MADE HER DAY...
WHICH MADE OURS...
*************
PROJECT OF THE DAY--- FIND THE TRUCK WE HAD THAT MOVED THE COA VAN-- JOYCE HAS DONATED ANOTHER NEWER VAN TO US-- AND WE HAVE TO GO GET IT--
FYI PUTTING A VAN ON A TRUCK INVOLVES THINGS LIKE OVERHEAD WIRES ETC... SO I NEED TO FIND A LOWBED... THE VAN TO BE TRANSPORTED IS 96 INCHES TALL .... THERE IS ONE AROUND WE USED IT TO GET THE COA TO THE FIXER GUY.
*******
SECOND POD-- MEDICAL INSURANCE--- THERE IS A GUY COMING HERE TODAY TO TALK ABOUT MED INSURANCE-- AND I NEED A GREAT QUANTITY OF INFO ON INS..... WE HAVE A COUPLE PEOPLE WHO NEED IT.
********
AND THEN THERE IS THE ONGOING ACCREDITATION---
WHICH INVOLVES THE ONGOING DISCUSSION--- I DO NOT WANT TO KEEP PEOPLE'S COMPLETE MEDICAL INFORMATION UNDER LOCK AND KEY--- I DON'T WANT IT HERE AT ALL--- TO HAVE IT , IMPLIES I AM TO UNDERSTAND AND COPE WITH ALL THE DIAGNOSIS-- AND I DO NOT... SO OUR POLICY IS... AS WITH GENERAL DISCUSSIONS.. YOU ARE ALLOWED ONE DIAGNOSIS THAT PERTAINS TO A BALANCE DOG-- AND IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO YOU WHILE YOU ARE HERE -- WE CALL 911 AND GET YOU INTO PROFESSIONAL HANDS... THE RESPONSE TIME LAST TIME WE HAD TO CALL WAS 5 MINUTES..
IT WOULD TAKE ME LONGER THAN THAT TO FIND OUT WHERE I HAD PUT YOUR COMPLETE MEDICAL RECORDS.. SO... PK...MS..FA THINGS LIKE THAT ARE ALL WE NEED TO KNOW. SAVES PAPER TOO...
************
THE DISASTER OF THE DAY IS THE OVERFLOWING DRY WELL--- THE ONE TO WHICH WE ADDED THE $20,000 LEACH FIELD LAST YEAR...
I CALLED TO HAVE THE TANK PUMPED HOPING IT WAS FULL OF DOG HAIR-- AND IT WAS... BUT WHILE THEY WERE PUMPING THAT-- THE LEACH FIELD WAS RUNNING WATER BACK INTO THE TANK...
I AM SURE IT IS THE RAIN/FROST WHICH IS DOING THAT-- BUT WE HAVE TO DO LAUNDRY IN THE BARN FOR A BIT.. AND PRAY ALOT THAT THE FIRST LAUNDRY HEALS ITSELF.
WE DO ALOT OF LAUNDRY....

BACK TO ACCREDITATION...
