thought for the day ......a camel is a horse designed by a committee..
i have never "done" a craft show before - but today is the day... me and my monkey fists-----i will be allotted an 8 foot table with 2 chairs...for $25 from 9 to 2.. with specific instructions that i must fit in the 8 foot with no spilling over into the next 8 foot... gotta love it....
talking about anticipating problems... and the whole thing could get out of control very easily.... i am looking forward to it... probably with one dog and the other 2 left in the "condo" .
trying to manage any operation is bound to get complicated... you would not believe.......i mentioned wiping our dogs off with waterless shampoo before assisted living visits to "improve the odor factor" and someone accused me of not caring for the fact that some people are alergic to scents.. and where was my mind
when i did not care that the smell of shampoo could kill her....i was going with the generic norm.. and it seems to me each person has some personal responsibility to manage their diversions from the norm if necessary... like a sign on a adult care door " i hate dogs ... go. away". it can not be as bad as the peanut allergy problem or i would have heard more of it.
why do we often let the negatives dominate just because they are the noisiest? i would love to see ipswich have a dog park-- or even 2--- but .... it is easier not to have one... unless you are a dog on the end of a 6 ' rope..
signs..... who says we need to believe every one... you don't have to go further than "big sale...save up to75%" that "up to" covers a multitude of sins...
the local hardware store almost got me on this one... " free 5 gal bucket and whatever you can fit into it at 20%off"
along with "just pay the. postage" .
there are soooo many signs designed to have us miss/ not read/ or ignore. don't forget i purchased a voting booth from florida used in the bush gore fiasco... it is a thing of beauty. someday someone will study that....
