AS MEGAN ONCE SAID... "WHY CAn't we just train dogs?"
HOW DID DOG TRAINING GET SO DIFFICULT???? WHY DO I HAVE TO EVEN CONSIDER CONFUSING THINGS LIKE OUR TRACTOR'S QUIRKEY PERSONALITY..
FOR YEARS, IT HAS-- ON OCASSION REFUSED TO STARTT IMMEDIATELY...HOWEVER A FEW GOOD SWEAR WORDS AND IT WOULD START AND RUNN NICELY FOR MONTHS.. ONCE ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO IT STOPPED WHILE RUNNING- AND AFTER A SHORT TEMPER TANTRUM IT STARTED AGAIN... HOWEVER' LAST WEEEK WHEN BUD WAS DRIVING IT TO THE STREET TO RECLAIM THE RECLINER NO ONE WANTED. IT STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DRIVEWAY AND JUST PLAIN QUIT.
ALL THOSE ARE CLUES TO IT'S PROBLEM I AM SURE-- AND ANY ONE WHO MIGHT HAVE ANY POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS IS MORE THAN WELCOME TO HAVE AT IT.-- BU\D SAYS THE INITIAL FUSE IS OK... BUT NOT EVEN THE HORN WORKS.
LIFE WITHOUT THAT TRACTOR IS NOT A GOOD OPTION AT ALL...IF THEY HAVE TO TAKE IT AWAY TO FIX I MAY HAVE TO HIRE A BOBCAT TO FILL IN... THIS COULD BE A PROBLEM...
COME ON YOU MECHANICAL TYPES... HAVE AT IT; JUST ONE OF MANY CHALANGES
i haqve a couple of those 3 x 4 red boxes with dials to identify electrical current--- i have used tehm on things like teh electric fences-- but never stopped to actually learn anyting about them except... did the needle move.???
which is the exact problem of SDP ---crazy acres, ---, ipswich,---, Massachusett,-- new england,--- the united states ,-- western hemisophere-- and the world in general. identify a problem and get distracted. how many canary's in coal mines can we ignore before things just explode and become too obvious to ignore? ...from global warming to filing IRS 990 forms- to broken wires on a tractor... -- you can ignore it just so long.

speaking of birds...... we usually have thousands of those barn swallows winging about in large groups-- yesterday i saw 3 birds of any kind. shanna says there are lots of birds in the barn... but it is the kind of thing where one is so used to seeing birds there that it does not hit you. well if they are in the barn, the hundreds usually flying about the t tent are gone. and that is strange.

i am astounded my daughter-- gwen-- who knows all kinds of formal things like parlementary proceedures ... had never heard of
"roberts rules of order" well i have heard of roberts rules but could not tell you one of them-and have no intention of reading about them... even if they are considered teh "gold standard for conducting meetings.......but i did buy the book for her-- mainly because i think she thought it was some kind of "idiots guide to meetings"-- why would i... her mother... know about anything that formalized/ organized.... -- i will be pleased to shock her with the fact that general Henry M. Robert - of the us army... was born in 1837 and this 2" thick book is in it's 11th printing.- gwen sometimes reads this DD --- so .."it's in teh mail"
my next problem will be that she will read it --- and remember it.
congress abides by this -- to the letter-- that is why they may look organized, but get nothing done.
