CP's LISA AND BRIAN CONE CAME AND DELIVEREDS SUPPER TO US LAST NIGHT.. CHICKEN CACHATORIE WHICH WAS A SUPER SUPPER-- I THOUGHT THEY WOULD BE HERE FOR SUPPER.. BUT THEY LEFT BEFORE I GOT TO THANK THEM... IT WAS A GOOOOOD DINNER.
with regard to the collection of camera people who i have decided earned the title of "fannie farmers" .
we had several very supportive notes for melissa- along with the few EMAILS that had other suggestions-
THERE IS SOME EXPRESSION ABOUT CASTING STONES WHICH I CAN'T REMEMVBER, HOWEVER..I DO REMEMBER THE VERSION "HE WHO LIVES IN GLASS HOUSES SHOULD NOT STOW THRONES" .
WE HAVE AN EXCEPTIONAL GROUP OF VOLUNTEERS AND STAFF...I KNOW IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO BE PART OF SOMETHING AND NOT BE ABLE TO HAVE MORE INPUT-- BUT THE INPUT THAT IS CRITICAL IS THE CHICKEN BRICKS--.. WHEN ANY QUESTIONABLE SITUATION ARRISES.... I HAVE SPENT 4 YEARS TRAINING YOU TO DEAL WITH AMAZING THINGS....THERE ARE LOTS OF YOU SENSIBLE CP'S WHO SHOULD TALK THISE THNIGS OVER--( VERY PLEASENTLY SO COURTNEY APPROVES) AND IF THERE IS 100% AGREEMENT WITH ALL OF YOU CP'S THAT YOU SHOULD CALL ME... THEN DO THAT... THERE WAS THE TIME I FELL ASLEEP ON MY KEYBOARD AND YOU ALL TALKED IT OVER AND DID NOT CALL 911... AND THEN THE TIME ANNIE FELL IN THE DONKEY STALL - AND CALLING ME WAS THE RIGHT THING TO DO... SO MAKING AN ABSOLUTE STATEMENT IS VERY DIFFICULT... THERE IS ALWAYS TEHE LOGIC "WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THERE WERE NO CAMERAS"
YOU HAVE COME A LONG WAY---- THOSE OF YOU 2012 AND 2013 PEOPLE HAVE BECOME MUCH BETTER EDUCATED "FANNIE FARMERS"....-- SOME OF THE NEW "CITY FOLK" -- 2016-- NEED TO BE BROUGHT UP TO SPEED...
WELLLLL.... LET ME RUN THRU SOME OF THE 2 AM CALLS I HAVE HAD WHEN WE STARTED IN 2012...--
MY FAVORITE ----" THERE IS A BIRD IN THE BARN"--
-" A DOG IN KENNEL 10 JUST THREW UP AND THE OTHER ONE IS EATING IT."
" YOU LEFT THE LIGHTS ON .. HOW CAN THEY SLEEP?"
" THERE ARE RATS IN THE KENNEL"
" ONE OF THE WATER BUCKETS IS EMPTY."
"XXXX HAS BEEN LYING DOWN FOR 20 MINUTES... THATS TOO LONG"
OR THE GENERIC DAYTIME QUESTIONS.
"ONE OF THE PUPPY SITTERS IS SHOWING TOO MUCH CLEAVAGE"
."WHY DOES LINCOLN HAVE A BLANKET ON AND THE DONKEY'S DON'T"
" THERE ARE FLYS ON THE DONKEYS"
"THE HAY BAG IS EMPTY."
OR " THOSE SHORTS COULD NOT BE ANY SHORTER" -( I DID AGREE WITH THAT ONE-- WE DO HAVE A DRESS CODE FOR PRACTICAL COVERAGE..)
PLUS... THE GROUP AROUND HERE DOES ACTUALLY CONTAIN 2 ROCKET SCIENTISTS, A PASTRY CHEF, SEVERAL DOCTORS , COUPLE NURSES,A TUGG BOAT CAPTAIN. PLUS CAMERA MARK,, THE POKER CHIP MAKER... SO THERE IS A WEALTH OF CAPABILITIES FROM WHICH TO DRAW ON PROPERTY-- PLUS ALL THE CP'S WHO COME UP WITH VERY ODD THINGS...
WELL... AT THE MOMENT I HAVE HAD YOU CP'S GIVE ME SOME SOME INTERESTING IDEAS ABOUT THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. ONE PERSON IS LOOKING INTO SOLAR... I DID THAT LONG AGO- BUT IPSAICH HAS IT'S OWN ELECTRIC COMPANY AND THERE WAS SOME CONFUSION ABOUT "NOT ON THE GRID" ..
WE DID LOOSE POWER IN THE HOUSE LAST NIGHT-- ENOUGH TO CLOSE DOWN THE CAMERAS... I HEARD TEH GENERATR COME ON... BUT THE LAUNDRY LIGHTS WERE STILL ON... DID NOT MAKE ANY SENSE.. BUD WILL PROBABY BE HERE TODAY (BUD = ELECTRITIAN RETIRED)
WITH REGARD TO THE DONKEYS LYING DOWN FOR TOO LONG... THE IMPLICATION WAS THAT IT WAS DEAD...-- NOW THIS WILL BE TOUGH FOR SOME PEOPLE--WHEN YOU HAVE A BUNCH OF ANIMALS.. DEAD... IS GONNA HAPPEN, WELL--- DEAD IS AN ABSOLUTE--- THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT DEAD... NOW 1/2 DEAD-- FOOT STUCK -- VERY ILL LOOKING --IS A PROBLEM.. BUT DEAD IS NO LONGER A PROBLEM THAT DOES NOT RISE TO THE STATUS OF GETTING UP OUT OF BED-- THEY WILL BE JUST AS DEAD IN THE MORNING.
JANINE HAS THAT SAME ATTITUDE TO DEALING WITH A DEAD ANIMAL... WHEN SHE WAS AT THE AUCTION- WHICH IS A COLLECTION OF NOT PARTICULARLY YOUNG/HEALTHY ANIMALS.. SHE WALKED AROUND A CORNER AND A DEAD HORSE WAS LYING IN THE DRIVEWAY- SHE IMMEDIATELY SAID IT WAS TEH EQUIVALENT OF AN AMISH FLAT TIRE... DEAD IS DEAD.
"ALL THE WORLD IS QUEER BUT ME AND THEE- AND SOMETIMES I FIND THEE A MIGHT PEQULIAR"
I MUST AWAY TO DEAL WITH BARKING PUPPIES....
