BY THE TIME I ANSWER ALL MY EMAILS, THE DAILY DOGGIE IS ½ WRITTEN....
I WAS THRILLED TO HEAR FROM DAWN ABOUT THE NUTTY PROFESSOR.....
Hi Carlene,
Oh wow! snail mail was amazing! We watched it today ! ( Friday at lunch) I had a room full of kids to watch the recording! Approximately 60 kids. My current 32 and the rest were from past years! They can't wait to try the experiment. So I am on my way this weekend to pick up the supplies. Several parents are bringing in dye and plastic water bottles. I have the tubing already. I can't wait to see them in action. The older kids will pair up with my current class. The older kids said, " We know how Carlene works, so sit back, pay attention and learn!" A real bossy little bunch, but so talented thanks to your past Nutty Professor! The kids were watching your every move. Many of the older kids took notes! They never take notes! I guess that they want to make you proud! I will let you know next week how it all turns out. The older kids invited me to sit out! They expressed " we have this Mrs. Romero, Carlene has taught us well and we can teach the younger ones. So I plan on putting my feet up and just watching the kids interact.
I can't thank you enough! You have given my past years kids the opportunity to teach the younger kids! They are so feeling empowered, something they have never felt before! So for this I so thank you!! Plus it gives an opportunity to put my feet up! I do think however, that I might need a bigger class for next week, perhaps the auditorium.
Dawn at Stedman.
FLATTERY WILL GET YOU ANYWHERE....
THE WHOLE CONCEPT IS ONE IN PROGRESS...
I AM THINKING MAYBE JUST TUESDAY 1PM (EASTERN ST TIME) AND THEN IF ANYONE HAS QUESTIONS, WE CAN DISCUSS ON THURSDAY 1PM.. ???? THEN I WOUL D HAVE A WEEK TO COME UP WITH AN IDEA AND SUPPLIES-- PLUS IF SHE TAPES THEM, WE HAVE A LIBRARY TO DRAW FROM IF I CAN'T THINK OF ANOTHER......
SEE----- I DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH OF THE KIND OF TOYS I WANTED AS A KID--- REAL THINGS LIKE WOOD--TO DO THINGS WITH... NOT PLASTIC THINGS WHERE SOMEONE ELSE ALREADY HAD TEH FUN OF PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER.... I LOVE SIPHON HOSES....
MAKES YOU WONDER ABOUT MY CHILDHOOD.... MAYBE UNDERNEATH IT ALL I AM REALLY A FRUSTRATED DISTILLERY OWNER.

HI CARLENE,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! WHEN I SAW YOU OPEN THE PACKAGE OF CARROT SEEDS FROM
THE DIRTY GARNENER I JUST SCREAMED. THE AMAZON "GOLDIE" HAS STRUCK AGAIN.
I ORDERED A POUND OF HEIRLOOM CARROTS FOR THE DONKEYS. I SAW THE CARROT
SEEDS AND WONDERED WHO WOULD WANT THAT. I GOT A NOTICE TODAY THAT THE
CARROTS WILL BE DELIVERED BETWEEN OCT. 4, AND 7. DON'T KNOW WHY THEY SENT
CARROT SEEDS. WENT AND CHECKED MY ORDER AND IT DEFINITELY SAYS, HEIRLOOM
CARROTS. COULD SOMEONE ELSE HAVE SENT THE CARROT SEEDS? IT SEEMS UNLIKELY.
I TRY TO WATCH MAIL CALL EVERY DAY SO I WILL REALLY BE LOOKING TO SEE IF THE REAL
CARROTS ARRIVE. SOMEONE TOOK A DARLING PICTURE OF MAY CHOMPING ON A CARROT
AND IT INSPIRED ME TO SEND THE REAL THING. NOOOTTTTT SEEDS. AMAZON IS USUALLY
SO GOOD. OH WELL.
OSSICAT

I HOPE GOLDIE IS NOT PLANNING FOR US TO HAVE THAT INDOOR GARDENING BIT I SAW SOMEWHERE ABOUT GROWING 6000 HEADS OF LETTUCE WEEKLY IN A SHIPPING CONTAINER....
I ALREADY TRIED THAT...
LOOOOONNNNNNGGGGGGG AGO... WHEN I MY HUSBAND WAS IN HIS HORSE RACING PHASE ( HIS ENTIRE LIFE)
HE BOUGHT A MARE - AND SUDDENLY WE WERE IN THE RACING BUSINESS...-WHICH I HATED.... I COULD DO A WHOLE BOOK OF THE FALLACIES OF RACING... BUT FOR HERE....JUST ONE DETAIL.....
RACE HORSES ALL HAVE THE SAME BIRTHDAY-- JANUARY FIRST-- I DUNNO WHY-- THEY DO... SO A HORSE BORN ON DECEMBER FIRST IS CONSIDERED A YEAR OLD ONE MONTH LATER.... ( ALOT OF RACING HAS THAT LOGIC) SOO......A 13 MONTH OLD HORSE WOULD BE RACING AGAINST A 23 MONTH OLD HORSE THAT WAS BORN FEB FIRST. GOT THAT?
SO THE OBJECT IS TO HAVE THOROBREDS BORN AS EARLY IN THE YEAR AS POSSIBLE... PROBLEM IS MOMMY NATURE DOES NOT ALLOW MARES TO HAVE A BREEDING CYCLE TIL SPRING...-- AND THE THING THAT TRIGGERS THE CYCLE IS... I AM TOLD... SOME GREEN GRASS.... THAT IS SORT OF AN ON BUTTON....
I HAD AN OLD REFRIGERATOR AND DECIDED TO TRY AND RAISE SOME GRASS TO FEED THE MAARE HE WANTED TO BREED-- AND ENDED UP WITH A MOLDY SMELLY MESS. BUT I TRIED....
APPARENTLY THEY HAVE REFINED THE PROCESS SINCE I TRIED... THE PROCESS WAS REFINED NOT BY A GOV'T GRANT, BUT THE PGA (POT GROWERS ASSOCIATION)- AND IT WORKS REALLY WELL NOW... EVEN HAS A RESPECTABLE NAME OF HYDROSOMETHING...

FYI
ONE OTHER THING I FORGOT TO MENTION-- I HAVE NEVER HAD A HEART ULTRASOUND BEFORE... I DID... JUST AFTER DOG FEST--- I HAD BENTLY WITH ME ... WHEN I WAS TIRED... IT TAKES A WHILE TO DO---- I WAS COMFORTABLE SO I FELL ASLEEP. AS DID BENTLEY BESIDE ME IN THE ROOM.... ALL OF A SUDDEN I SAT BOLT UPRIGHT BECAUSE I HEARD THE NOISE OF A FLUID RUSHING THRU A SMALL OPENING. THE NURSE HAD FLIPPED ON THE SOUND OF BLOOD GOING THRU THE VALVES OF MY HEART....
WHAT SHE DID NOT KNOW IS THAT IS ALSO THE SOUND OF LIQUID PROJECTILE GREAT DANE POO.
HOWEVER.... BENTLEY WAS STILL SLEEPING.... THANKFULLY...
