coins are coming....i was all ready with a clean 5 gal water jug-- and in the 2 days it took cp's to start mailing coins- i can't find the jug.... but i will...-- we have probably 3 cups of coins now.. one way that seems to work is to get one of those uspo "if it fits we will ship it" boxes at the post office. coins are heavy... as you CP's get into this-- i am told a galLon of quaRTERS = 53 POUNDS... SO IF YOU HAVE THOSE..... MAYBE CONVERTING TO PAPER IS BETTER- OR BRING THEM WITH YOU IF YOU ARE DRIVING TO DOGFEST.

OF ALL TEH INTERESTING PROBLEMS ONE CAN HAVE, A CRACKED TOILET SEAT IS ONE THAT COMMANDS ATTENTION.. PROBLEM IS IT HAS BEEN COMMANDING ATTENTION FOR ABOUT 3 WEEKS NOW... MY DAUGHTER GWEN COMPLAINED ABOUT IT AND COULD NOT UNDERSTAND WHY IT WAS NOT RESOLVED MORE QUICKLY. THAT IS BECAUSE IT IS 74% RESOLVED BY CLEVER USE OF ORANGE DUCT TAPE... THUS ALTERING I'T POSITION ON THE LIST OF PRIORITIES.
THERE IS ALOT OF OTHER THINGS THAT SHOULD BE ON MY MIND... SHOULD BE.....

W/R/T LOST LEASHES....
Hi Carlene,
Just a thought; when I worked in the ER at our local hospital we had several “pool” stethoscopes and every now and then the hooks they were kept on were empty. Our boss simply put a note up asking for return and within a few days, the hooks were once again overflowing. (We won’t discuss the sanitation of sharing stethoscopes)
Anyway, what happened was that like leashes, we carried them around on our necks, we would get off work and end up tossing them in the back seat of the car or on a table at home and forget to bring them back until the Note went up.
