I AM DOING VERY WELL TODAY--- SOX --- SHOES--- SWEATSHIRT-- ALL SUPPLIED BY OUR CAMERA PEOPLE !-----DOZEN BEAUTIFUL SOFT SOX HANGING ON A CLOSELINE BEHIND ME, .. BEING CLAIMED BY OUR VOLUNTEERS ONE BY ONE-- AND TEH SHOE FAIRY-- SENDING ME THE SKETCHERS I WEAR WHEN SHE FIGURES OUT ( OR SEES) THAT I NEED A NEW PAIR... AND SWEATSHIRTS-- I TOOK ONE-- AND SEVERAL VOLUNTEERS--- IN BASIC NEED--- HAVE HELPED THEMSELVES--- EVERYBODY IS PRETTY GOOD AT TAKING WHAT THEY NEED FROM OUR OVERFLOW TABLE- A BONUS FOR VOLUNTEERING HERE. TEH BLUE WINTER JACKETS YOU SEE EVERYONE WEARING ARRIVED IN 6 BOXES- I DUNNO WHY THEY WERE AN EXTRA, BUT ----WE LOVE IT-- AND LIVE ON IT... FROM THE PALLET OF CHLOROXS WIPES- WHICH WE THOUGHT WAS A RIDICOULOUS DELIVERY--- HAS BEEN A HUGE SUCCESS
WHEN IT FIRST ARRIVED I WONDERED WHAT ON EARTH OT DO WITH 4 X 4 X 4-- THAT 'S 64 CUBIC FEET OF DISINFECTANT WIPES--- BUT WE ARE USING THEM CONSTANTLY-
THERE ARE AT LEAST 2 PEOPLE WHO WORK FOR COMPANIES WHO WILL PAY THE POSTAGE ON "EXTRA-- LEFT OVER -- SUPPLIES" TO BE SENT TO A CHARITY-- THAT IS US!! - FROM ELASTIC BANDS -- TO A PALLET OF KLEENEX------I KEEP THINKING "WE CAN NEVER......" AND TEH NEXT THING YOU KNOW WE ARE WHITTLING DOWN THE PILE OF WHATEVER...
THERE MAY NOT BE MANY CHARITIES THAT CAN COPE WITH A PALLET OF ANYTHING... BUT WE CAN-- THANKS TO THE PURPLE DONATED FORK LIFT FROM JER AND STEVEN- WE CAN DEAL WITH PALLETS AND BOXES TOO BIG FOR MAIL CALL.

I HAD TO TRAVEL DOWN MEMORY LANE THIS MORNING--- I READ THRU MY LIST OF EMAILS-- I HAD TO BECAUSE THEY TOLD ME I HAD TOO MANY--- BUT IT WAS INTERESTING.-- PEOPLE I HAD NOT THOUGHT OF IN YEARS. SOME I REMEMBER--SOME CONFUSED ME -- THE DEAF RUSSIAN'S BROTHER-- WAS ONE OF THE MORE UNUSUAL NOTES TO REMIND ME. I HAD MANY IN TEH DANE OWNER GROUP.. DONNA-MANTLE 2003- KIND OF THING.
I DID DELETE A BUNCH OF "LISTED AUTOMATICLY" EMAILS--- SO IF SOME OF YOU DON'T GET THE DD THAT IS WHY... I CAN PUT YOU BACK IN SOME OTHER CATAGORIE.
***
RIDICOULOUS--- HOW CAN I SAY "IF YOU DON'T GET THIS MESSAGE LET ME KNOW"
THAT IS ONE OF THOSE STATEMENTS LIKE "DO YOU ALWAYS TELL THE TRUTH?"'... ONLY ONE ANSWER.

NO COPY AND PASTE--
BUT THERE WAS... JUST YESTERDAY... 4 REQUESTS FOR ME TO BRING MY DOGS AND SPEAK SOMEWHERE.-- I DON'T MEAN TO IMPLY IT IS TO THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AT A MEDICAL CONVENTION... BUT WOULD YOU BELIEVE A GROUP OF 20 ALTZEIMERS PATIENTS? -- I DON'T MIND-- THEY LOVE THE DOGS , AND IT TAKES DARN LITTLE PREPARATION. IF I REPEAT A STORY- THEY DON'T KNOW IT EITHER. (I DO HAVE AN EXTERNAL MEMORY DEVICE- USUALLY JUDY-- SITTING IN THE BACK ROW TELLING ME)

BACK TO CAR BUYING.. LOOKS LIKE RAV4 IS THE HIGHEST ON THE LIST.
