MEN CARRYING BLACK BUCKETS-- GWEN IS HERE FROM THE STYLISH TOWN OF ASHEVILLE NORTH CAROLINA-- AND SAYS IN HER WORLD OF MEN AND WOMEN, TEH MEN HAVE STARTED TO CARRY BUCKETS- AS GENETRIC CARRY ALLS-- APPARENTLY THE MEN BEGAN BY PUTTING "STUFF" IN THE WIFE'S DECORATED BUCKET- SO TEH WIVES FOUND A MORE MASCULINE ALTERNATIVE-- BLACK BUCKETS... FOR THAT QUICK RUN TO HOME DEPOT- NO MORE PLASTIC BAGS FOR TEH GROUPING OF LIKE ITEMS....!
SHE IS ON A BIG KICK ABOUT NOT USING PLASTICS - AND IS ONN MY CASE ABOUT THE PLASTIC STRAWS I USE TO BUBBLE THE SUGAR INTO MY COFFEE---SHE DECLARES WITHOUT MUCH EFFORT SHE HAS REDUCED HER USE OF PLASTICS BY 90%-- WITH JUST A LITTLE ORGANIZATION-- LIKE REFUSE ALL BAGS AND PUT SMALL STUFF IN YOUR POCKETS... AND CARRY A CLOTH BAG--- OR A NICE BUCKET-- ALL DECORATED...
THAT BUCKET IDEA IS THE ULTIMATE IN A"WOMAN'S POCKETBOOK" BUT FAR LESS INCLINED TO COLLECT PERMANENT CLUTTER. YOU CAN SEE INTO IT.

PLASTIC BOTTLES....- SEEMS LIKE THE GOVERNMENT COULD TAX THEM OUT OF EXISTANCE.. WE COULD FUND THE ENTIRE HEALTH CARE SYSTEM WITH TEH TAX MONEY FROM POLAND SPRINGS ALONE...
*******
NOW A PROBLEM.... WE ARE GETTTING TO THE POINT WHERE DOGS WHO WE "PUT OUT" YEARS AGO, ARE AGING... AND NEED REPLACING AS THEY TIRE- OR WORSE YET- GO TO THE RAINBOW BRIDGE. WITH 150 OR SO DOGS OUT WORKING... WE DO GET THAT TERRIBLE CALL WHEN SOMEONE HAS TO LET THEIR DOG GO- MY ONLY WAY TO DEAL IS TO REMIND PEOPLE YOU GIVE YOUR DOG A HAPPY LIFE- AND WHEN IT IS OVER, YOU LET THEM SLEEP-
LOOKING AT BENTLEY AND CHAOS--- SHE IS FULL OF ODD LUMPS AND BUMPS...-- SHE IS ALSO VERY HAPPY, PEEING ASND POOPING ON SCHEDULE- NOTHING IS OOZING OR DRIPPING-- AS IS BENTLEY- THE PROBLEM WITH BENTLEY IS A BIT MORE SPECIFIC-- I AM TOLD HIS 2 MASCULINE APPENDAGES DO NOT MATCH.--- I NEVR WOULD HAVE EVEN THOUGHT TO INVESTIGATE THE CONSISTANCEY OF THE 2, --- WHATEVER, IT DOES NOT SEEM TO BOTHER HIM- SO I GO WITH TEH STATEMENT ON MANY MEDICAL DOCTORS OFFICES.. "FIRST DO NO HARM" - AND WITH 2 OLDER DOGS - TO WHOM ANESTHESIA IS NO LAUGHING MATTER, I HANG N THERE... MAYBE LIKE THE PERSON FALLING OUT OF A 70 STORY BUILDING.. WE ARE DOING OK SO FAR....
I DEFINITELY STOP BEFORE ANY TEST IS DONE TO SAY WHAT DIFFERENCE IS THAT TEST GOING TO MAKE IN THE DOG'S LIFE--- WHY XRAY CHAOS TO SEE IF THOSE LUMPS ARE LUNG CANCER ? FIRST SHE WOULD NOT BE HAPPY ABOUT BEING XRAYED.. AND SECOND WHAT DIFFERENCE WOULD IT MAKE IF THEY ARE.. WE ARE NOT ABOUT TO OPERATE AND REMOVE THEM - IF WE FOUND OUT THEY ARE CANCEROUS, IT WOULD MAKE ME MISERABLE FOR HER REMAINING YEARS WORRYING ABOUT WHAT I SHOULD DO WHEN... SHE/ THEY WILL HOPEFULLY TELL ME WHEN IT IS TIME FOR THEM TO SLEEP.

SO BACK TO PLASTIC CONTAINERS-- IF ANYONE WANTS 25 OF THE PLASTIC DISHES ( WASHED IN THE DISH WASHER) TO COLLECT NUTS AND BOLTS--- OR SUGAR AND SALT... JUST SEND ME TEH POSTAGE... WE HAVE HUNDREDS... .. DONNA THINKS MAYBE THOUSANDS.
