GWEN CAME UP WITH AN INTERESTING CONCEPT== WITYH ALL THESE PEOPLE WORKING AT HOME, ARE THERE PLACES THAT WITLL FIND OUT THEY DO NOT NEED THESE HUGE BUILDINGS??--\
-----
HAVING EVERYONE WATCHING IS CERTAINOY GIVING ME FOOD FOR THOUGHT FOR TEH DD...
APPARENTLY... SOMEONE THOGGUHT I "SMACKED " HENRY LAST NIGHT DURING THE LONG MAIL CALL ...I THINK I REMEMBER THE EPISODE... I HAD A PLATE OF WHAT HAD BEEN MY SNACK SITTING WEELL WITHIN REACH OF HIS NOSE.. ON THE STOOL I USE AS A TABLE.
BEING A VERY LIVELY PUP... HE FLEW AT IT- WHICH I KNE HE WOULD... NORMAL PEOP[LE WIOULD LIFT THE PLATE OUT OF HIS REACH-- I DO NOT. .. I SNAPPED HIS NOSE EVERY TIME HE GOT WITHIN 4 INCHES.. I SNAPPED WITH INCREASING "SNAP" -- IT TOOK ABOUT 6. snaps. THEN HE TURNED HIS HEAD AWAY.. AT WHICH TIME I GAVEE HIM A COOKIE. COUPLE PEOPLE WERE ALL UPSET I WAS CONFUSING THE DOG... HENRY HAD NO CONFUSION WHATSO EVER... HE FOUND OUT THAT PLATE WAS MINE.... NOT HIS. THEREAFTER HE CAME OVER FOR A HEAD RUB AND ROLLED HIS EYES AT THAT PLATE AS HE WENT BY, BUT .... HE GOT TEH MESSAGE... NOW AS HE BECOMES THE 180 POUND ADULT.... HE STANDS A CHANCE OF HAVING A WONDERFUL LIFE INSTEAD OF THE OUT OF CONTROL DANE WHO ENDS UP IN RESCUE BECAUSE SOMEONE WAS AFRAID TO DISCIPLINE...
IF YOU DON'T DISCIPLINE YOUR CHILD, THE WORLD WILL.
HOW MANY TIMES --- LIKE ON AN AIRPLANE WITH A KID HITTING YOUR CHIAIR, AND TEH PARENT BLINDLY SAYS "HE'S JUST A KID-- ISN'T HE CUTE?" AND YOU WANT TO SAY A BIG "NO" ACTUALLY BEING POLITE YOU PROBABLY WON'T SAy anything.. .

I/WE NEED HELP READING ALL THE " STUFF" COMING DOWN ABOUT THE UNEMPLOYMENT. - I GET BAD VIBES ABOUT EVERYONE TRYING TO COLLECT FROM THERE . FOR ALOT OF REASONS.... PERSON "A" THAT I KNOW... FILED IMMEDIATELY WHEN THIS STARTED 3 WEEKS AGO AND HAD HAS NOT GOT A PENNY YET. BUT I DID GET INTHE MAIL 3 UNEMPLOYMENT FORMS FOR 2 PEOPLE-----SOMEONE WHO WORKED HERE ONE DAY LAST NOVEMBER 2019 (FOR WHOM I GOT 2 LETTERS) AND ANOTHER WHO WORKED A MONTH IN DECEMBER 2019-- IT LOOKS LIKE THEY ARE HAVING COMPUTER PROBLEMS.... we are paying reg salary this pay period... and down teh pike we need to think it over.
i know i am spending alot less...(. and loosing weight becaause of.... well not eating so much !!!!)
WHEN THIS FIRST STARTED I SAT IN MY ROOM DIDDLING WITH NUMBERS AND WONDERED IF EVERYONE COULD LIVE ON 1/2 THEIR SALARIY WHICH WITH EVERYONE IN HOUSE NOT GOING ANYWHERE, THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO AND WE COULD PAY SALARIES ALOT LONGER... HOWEVER IF THEY THEN HAD TO GO ON UNEMPLOYMENT WOULD THE LOWER SALARIE EFFECT WHAT THEY COULD GET FROM THE GOVT?
TIZ A PUZZLEMENT. also a factor is when janine was on unem0loyment she said her health care was better than what she had been paying for.... then there is the word furlow? what exactkt does that mean?
i did call every one who has oneof our "furloughed dogs--- everyone is "with it" and doing fine even tho housetraining is a bit of a challange. i asked everyone to send me an email----- i wanted to get every's email on a file so i could send notices to all at once in a group--- like yesterday ... nice rain... denis got the spreader on the smaller tractor and spread lime and fertalizer all over my various "green" projects ( aka lawn... like the flat field) this meant if anyone wanted to come run dogs they shoulc use teh puppy hill.... arena... or icu.. areas... because we have anasty beaver in the pond area. too. probably give i t one more day before we use the flat field... and for those who have not sent me the email so i can copy paste...please do.
for those worried about impending puppies... megan is on that.. will be at her house.. her dogs going to devin... megans mom... aside from being a super relish maker is very competent and will be a huge help.

Update from Fiona and SD Elvis:
Well it has definitely been a crazy few weeks! With everything going on around the COVID19 it has meant that we spend most of our time inside away from others. I have been doing a lot of studying for classes online while also continuing to manage my health.
In-between working on school and work, Elvis and I try to get out for walks in quiet areas. Elvis loves running around the woods to get out some energy since we are not working out and about as much as normal. This does mean that I have to use my crutches a little more often which has led to a number of falls, it is a GREAT reminder for how much Elvis has changed my life and my mobility. Service Dog Project truly changed my life more then I could have ever imagined when they donated Elvis to me.
We do still get out to go to the hospital a couple times a week but other then that we are just staying home.
We hope everyone is staying safe and we hope you enjoy some pictures from a couple weeks ago ❤️

because of my situation I have not left home since Oct 4th for a doctor’s appointment & lab work.
So, I should be quite safe from exposure to the coronavirus, right? No, wrong.
An individual I know very well who was experiencing mild symptoms of the illness but concealing them from others was in my home on St. Patrick’s Day ,He fell seriously ill the next day & was tested for the virus, the results of which finally came back positive yesterday.
The irony of my situation is inescapable — what are the odds of a person who has not left their home for nearly six months being exposed to one of the first 10 cases in their county & likely first 25 in their state? If that person is not safe, no one is safe.
