sold out with a day to go !!! just in time for grace to "take off"
she has family in the netherlands-- so it is a great opportunity for her to take some time off
from doing sooooo much around here.
i wanted to give you her flght numbers so you could track her progress..
but all she has given me is her arrival time in schiphol airport -- which is 8:20 tues am..
we have a few people who have said they will try and keep the laundry up to date while she is gone.
the other chicken brick newss is that a couple people who shoulod have got the cards -
- have had their envelopes returned.. so if you bought a brick dec jan feb abd did not
get a caqrd, send me an email.. annie is on that project.

the pups may have to come in 4 crates instread of 2 because of their size...
the only good thing about that is we will have more crates around to house
wanda-- she is a holy terror- putting another hole in chaos...
earlene and paul took her on a long walk -- chaos always looks so much happier after she spends time with them...
then she comes in and sleeps on the sofa with a "i will just wait for them to show up again" look about her.

on tv this morning was "they hacked my brain" and it was put on by luminosity-
i have forgotten which pup is which-- but one is luminosity .
*****
the show was fascinating-- about improving your brain --- and it was not a sales pitch
but following one guy as they did all kinds of experimnents on him and gave him games to play.
none of which i could do except to think about...
the one that fascinated me is... teaching anyone to juggle will improve thier reaction time
and general thought process.
what a great idea.... back when... my kids were about 10 and we had that foolish kids circus, i
started one summer by telling the whole group to learn to juggle by the august performance
so the whole summer we had kids wandering around throwing 2 or 3 things in the air.
most of the time picking them up off the ground...... but the did learnj.... and the concept was very valid
it takes no million dollar equipment--- couple pair of rolled up sox or couple oranges.
what a great idea for dogfest--- not really a contest--- but a group activity would be amusing...
if you all start now... how to diorections are all over the place, but from my scant knowledge
start with one and say one-two as you throw and catch..
then proceed to 1-2-3-4 sequence with a throw throw catch catch-
a very amusing and unusual thing to do--- so practice that !! we will have a juggling activity at dogfest
dawn--- ? a good group activity for your kids ?
