JUGGLING-- PERFECT THING FOR KIDS of all ages...TO LEARN TO DO DURING THIS COV BIT -
- ROLL A COUPLE PAIR OF SOX INTO A BALL, AND YOU HAVE ALL THE EQUPMENT YOU NEED.. BY THE TIME YOU DROP THEM 64 TIMES AND HAVE TO FETCH THEM FROM UNDER THE COUCH YOU WILL HAVE EXERCISE TOO. ALL LEVELS... BEGINNERS TOSS ONE FROM HQAND TO HAND... IF YOU CAN ADD A SECOND ONE , YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY TO THE TRADITIONAL THREE. BUT IT DOES NOT STOP THERE... 4 OR 5... GO FOR IT.. COOPERATION... GO back to two between 2 kids...and get to 5 between 2 kids.-- by the time we get thru this we will have a bunch of entertainment... none the worse for weAR.
WHAT A STUPID WASTE OF TIME...? LIKE SITTING AROUND DOING NOTHING IS BETTER???? THIS IS A CONCEPT I DEMANDED OF MY CHILDREN ... IT SOUNDS LIKE I WAS TREMEDOUSLU ORGANIZED... NOT TRUE... I MUST HAVE NEEDED SOMETHING TO KEEP 2 KIDS OUT OF MY HAIR AND HAD THAT BRAINSTORM.. I NEVER REALIZED THE FUTURE RAMMIFICATIONS TIL YESTERDAY...
I SOMETIMES TALK TO MY ELDEST DAUGHTER ABOUT 5AM...BECAUSE SHE GETS UP EARLY TOO.... YESSTERDAY SHE AND HER HUSBAND WERE GOING TO THIER "SECOND HOME" FOR VARIETY'S SAKE.... THAT BEING THEIR RV WHICH IS PARKED IN THE YARD. IN TALKING ABOUT HOW FORTUNATE SHE WAS TO HAVE A JOB ANd WHY THAT WAS TRUE, IS THAT IN HER "INDUSTRIAL/ BUSINESS CARIEER" SHE HAD ON OCASSION --WHEN THE GOING WAS SLOW- TO USE THAT TIME TO LEARN SOMETHING NEW.. SOME NEW COMPUTER SKILLS, OR SYSTEM OR FUNCTION. what some other employee did... .. SOME SENSABLE SOME SENSELESS... AND SHE NOW FINDS SHE IS THE ONLY ONE IN HER OFFICE WITH SOME STRANGE SKILL THAT SHE LEARNED WHEN SHE HAD NOTHNG ELSE TO DO.
NOT TOTALLY UNLIKE ME AND ROPE SPLICING... AND HOW SP;ICING SOME SHAGGY ROPE IN AN OTHERWISE BEAUTIFUL HORSE STABLE AS I STOOD AROUND WITH NOTHING TO DO...., LEAD TO TEH $7500 DONATION WHICH WAS A "VOTE OF CONFIDENCE" WHICH GOT SERVICE DOG PROJECT GOING.
SO BACK TO THE MOTOVATION TO SUCCEED-- THIS IS A PROBLEM IF SUCCESS ITSELF IS NOT ENOUGH..... ESPECIALLY IN KIDS TO WHOM SUCCESS AT ANYTHING HAS BEEN ELUSIVE... THERE MAY BE A FEW CHILDREN WHO MAY NEED ENCOURAGEMENGT WITH A PARENT CRAWLING AROUND THE FLOOR LOOKING FOR SOX TOO... SO BE IT. JOIN THE FUN !
I WILL STICK MY NECK OUT... TO DAWN #1 TEACHER OF KIDS AT OF STEDMAN SCHOOL MAYBE IN ?COLORADO? IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO TO GET YOUR KIDS JUGGLING????-- OR ANYONE ELSE.... LIKE CLIPS TO PLAY AT MAIL CALL???? OR SOMETHING????

MEANWHILE JANINE IS TRYING TO PUT TOGETHER AN NURSING HOME PARADE OF ANIMALS== LORD KNOWS WE HAVE SOME ---- THIS WOUOLD BE TO ARRIVE WITH A TRAILER LOAD.. TO BE handed TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE ARRICVED ONE PERSON TO A CAR-- AND THEN WALK AROIUND THE OUTSIDE OF THE NURSING HOME . AND GET BACKI ON THE TRAILERS AND GO TO ANOTHER..-- FOR TH e ORDINARY PERSON THAT IS AN IMPOSSIBLE CHORE.. TO JANINE WITH GOOD TRUCK ... GOOD TRAILER. SCHLEPING ANIMALS ALL OVER 1/2 THE COUNTRY IS NEARLY AN EVERY DAY OCCURANCE. DONKEYS, MINI HORSES ,, GOATS.. DANES AND THAT "BOY COW" ELVIS TEH ZEBU. it would be second nature.
USTA'BE TOWNS WOULD PAY ME $1000 AN AFTERNOON TO SET UP THAT STUFF AT "HOMECOMINGS" OR THE LIKE. CHOWDERFEST, HARBORFEST, RIVERFEST.. WE DID THEM ALL-- SO THERE IS NO ONE MORE QUALIFIED-- AND IT IS SOMETHING TO DO.
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED IS WE NEED TO FIND HOMES WHERE THE RESIDENTS COULD LOOK OUT TH E WINDOWS... JUDY IS WORKING ON IT.
-----
CHORTLE OF THE DAY.... SOMETIME TEH BACKGROUND OF THESE THINGS WAS IN ITSELF ENTERTAINING...
I REMEMBER....... REX TRAILER.. TEH PERSONIFICATION OF THE WORD "GENTLEMAN" DID MANY PARADES AROUND BOSTON... HE WAS BOSTON'S ROY ROGERS AND HAD A HUGE TV SHOW LONG AGO. WELL HE AGED TO THE POINT OF NO LONGER HAVING HIS OWN HORSE "GOLDRUSH" - SO HE WOULD BORROW A PALOMINO I HAD.. AND I OFTEN SENT A DONKEY TO WALK BEHIND "GOLDRUSH" WHICH ADDED AN ELEMENT WITHOUT MUCH TROUBLE. ONE 4TH OF JULY REX HAD 2 PARADES SCHEDULED.. NATICK AND WAKEFIELD... I DID NOT GO ... JANINE DID ... WITH A FEW OF HER COLLEGE FRIENDS.. IT WAS PRETTY ROUTINE...-- SHE CAME HOME FROM NATICK IN A GREAT TIZZY... REX HAD NOT FQLLEN OFF GOLDRUSH, BUT REX's BALANCE HAD DETERIATED TO THE POINT THAT HE DID NOT SIT UPRIGHT AT ALL... AND SO JANINE HAD TO HANG ON TO HIM BY THE ANKLE TO KEEP HIM IN THE SADDLE AS HE WAVED TO THE CROWDS..... LITTLE DID THEY KNOW.

THIS SCHEDULE WILL BE IN EFFECT UNTIL WE HAVE TO CHANGE TI FOR SOME OTHR REASON... WHICH WILL HAPPEN REGULARLY--- I AM SURE.
