THIS WILL BE A VENTING SATURDAY
PEOPLE GET WIERDER AND WIERDER----I JUST HAD A CALL 5:14AM COMPLAINING "MY HUSBAND SAID THAT NO ONE HAD WATERED OR FED MISCHA SINCE SHE HAD TEH BABIES..." AND WHEN I WENT TO EXPLAIN THEY CERTAINLY HAD SHE HUNG UP..
COUPLE THAT WITH THE EMAIL
HI, CARLENE,
JUST WANTED TO SAY HOW MUCH I ENJOYED OBSERVING OVERNIGHTERS, HALEY AND MOLLY. THEY WORKED WELL AS A TEAM, AND DIDN'T DISTURB EXHAUSTED MOM DOG ANY MORE THAN THEY HAD TO. PLUS THEIR QUIET, CALM HANDLING OF THE 12 PUPS WAS JUST PERFECT - ROTATING PUPS AT MILK BAR, SEEING THAT MOM'S LEGS WEREN'T RESTING ON ANY OF THE PUPS, HOLDING PUPS SO MOM COULD WHIZ THEM AND SO FORTH. THEY MOVED CALMLY AND WITHOUT FURTIVE JERKS AND A LOT OF JUMPING UP AND DOWN. THEY OFFERED MOM DOG FOOD AND WATER AT JUST THE RIGHT TIME. THEY SEEMED TO SENSE WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE AND WHEN. OVERALL, ONE OF THE BEST OVERNIGHT TEAMS I'VE SEEN.

PUPS ARE DOING GREAT... EVEN "THE RUNT" HAS A ROUNDISH BELLY WHEN YOU PICK HER UP... .. NO... HIM I THINK...
***
MISSHA WAS JUST WINING-- VERY QUIETLY SO I HAD A DISCUSSION WITH HER SHE IS LYING ABSOLUTELY FLAT WITH PUPS ALL NURSING... AND WHEN I ASKED IF SHE WANTED TO GO OUT -- HER HEAD WENT FLAT-- THAT WAS A NO... SO I ASKED ABOUT FOOD AND THE TAIL WAGGED EVER SO SLIGHTLY... SO THERE WASN'T ANYTHING WRONG WITH HER.. OR HER TAIL WOULD NOT HAVE WAGGED.. WE DUG IN THE FRIDGE AND FOUND THE CHICKEN SOMEONE BOILED YESTERDAY-- AND STRIPPED THE BONES-- SHE ATE THAT SO FAST , SHE NEARLY BIT ME AS I FED IT TO HER... SO WE DEFINED THE PROBLEM... SHE IS HUNGRY. AND SHE OUGHT TO BE... SHE IS FEEDING 12...
MAYBE IN A COUPLE DAYS WE SHOULD BGET THE GOATS MILK GOING... FOR HER TOO...

BACK TO BEING TRAINED TO GET MAD AT SOMEONE----
IT IS VERY DIFFICULT..NO.... IT IS INTERESTING HOW SOMEONE CAN DECIDE TO WIND THEMSELVES INTO A HATRED BASED ON LITTLE.. OR NO FACTS.... WHAT IS TERRIFYIN IS WHEN THEY CONVINCE OTHERS TO GO ALONG WITH THEM.. LIKE THE GUY WHO WAS UPSET THAT HE THOUGHT MISHA HAD NO WATER.. SO HE GOT HIS WIFE TO CALL. AND WHEN SHE DID... SHE WAS ALL SET TO BE MAD AT ME...TRAINED TO HATE ME ALREADY...
SHE DID NOT START THE CONVERSATION WITH "MY IDIOT HUSBAND DOESNT THINK MISCHA HAS BEEN GIVEN ENOUGH WATER"... NO SHE STARTED WITH DIRECTING ME... "YOU SHOULD BE WATERING MISCHA BECAUSE SHE CAN NOT GET UP TO DRINK..."
WELL WE HAVE BEEN OFFERING HER WATER, SHE CAN GET UP TO DRINK, AND YOU R HUSBAND MUST BE AN IDIOT....WHY DID YOU BELIEVE HIM?
IS THIS NOT WHAT ISIS IS ALL ABOUT? AND HOW OFTEN DO WE HAVE TO HEAR SOME CONVERSATION PURELY TRYING TO TRAIN US TO HATE OR BELIEVE SOME ONE OR THING.. ESPECIALLY NOW WITH BOMBS INVOLVED..
LIKE MUSLIMS LATELY... --- I REMEMBER.... I DID A JOB WITH ANIMALS FOR A MUSLIM GROUP SOUTH OF BOSTON AT SOME MUSLIM CENTER.. THEY WERE ALL NICE PEOPLE...I HAD A NICE DAY AT THIER PARTY WITH MY DONKEYS..... NOT BEING A PARTICULARLY RELIGIOUS PERSON- OR PARTICULARLY ASTUTE TO RELIGIOUS CUSTOMS---- I DID HAVE A PROBLEM WITH WHICH DOOR WAS FOR WOMEN AND WHICH FOR MEN..BOTH DOORS NEXT TO EACH OTHER WNE T DIRECTLY INTO THE SAME ROOM...A DOOR WAS A DOOR TO GO THRU... AND IF THE WOMEN WANT TO COVER UP THEIR HAIR, THAT'S NOT A BAD IDEA--- IT CERTAINLY HAS A PRACTICAL ASPECT TO IT...
I BETTER STAY OUT OF RELIGION... BUT I DO LOOK AT IT FROM A NON RELIGIOUS ASPECT.. MY PARENTS TRIED... I DO KNOW ALL THE HYMNS... BUT THAT IS ABOUT AS FAR AS IT GOES..
WELL...ONE MORE SHOT... WHEN I FILL OUT MY 990 TO PROVE I AM A CHARITY, I WONDER HOW/WHY/WHAT ALL THE CHURCHES HAVE FOR ANSWERS TO ALL THIOSE QUESTIONS.....MAYBE WE BOTH AGREE ON NOT HAVING TANNING BOOTHS... BUT BOY I WOULD LOVE TO ARGUE SOME OF THE OTHERS !!
****
ALL THAT WITH THE PHONE CALLS- LATELY-- I HAVE HAD SEVERAL NOW... AND LINDA HAD ONE-- PRIVATE PHONE.. NO CALL BACK NUMBER..BASIC MESSAGE "WE ARE GOING TO DESTROY YOU AND DO YOU IN".. .WOMAN'S VOICE.. LINDA WHEN YO READ THIS,, LETS GET DOWN EXACTLY WHAT YOU HAVE HEARD... AND THE TIME---- THERE IS ONLY ONE GROUP... AND MAYBE ONL Y ONE GUY .. WHO IS FULL OF HATRED FOR US THAT I KNOW OF-- AND THAT IS A GUY IN THE DEVELOPEMENT NEXT DOOR.. WHO HAS FILED AN OFFICIAL COMPLAINT ABOUT THE BARKING.
I AM NOT TO THRILLED TO HAVE A DEVELOPEMENT NEXT DOOR EITHER... IT SEEMS TO ME... PEOPLE COME OUT OF APPARTMENTS... TO THE COUNTRY WHERE THEY CONSIDER THE AUTHORITIES SOME KIND OF BUILDING MANAGER... WHO CAN CONTROL THE ENVIRONMENT...
YOU DON'T MOVE TO MANHATTAN THEN COMPLAIN ABOUT THE NOISE OF THE TAXI HORNS.
THERE IS ONE PERSON WHO STOPS AT THE TOP OF OUR DONKEY HILL ON OCCASION AND SMOKES A CIGARETTE-- I CAN SMELL IT.
