I have decided to put this one on the "List of Things I Shall Not Worry About." <br /><br />But I am worried about this:<br />http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35740950/ns/us_news-education/Smelly Kellyhttp://blog0rama.edublogs.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4956989639073843954.post-86753601236209352132010-03-07T05:11:52.611-05:002010-03-07T05:11:52.611-05:00I live on a farm (an now own 310 acres - yeah!). I...I live on a farm (an now own 310 acres - yeah!). I am surrounded by farms and I love the smell of manure when it is spread on the fields. People think it is weird, but you have to love the smells of nature. As we are ready to head into a new season, I am anticipating the smells- things that people miss when they can't wait for this, or wait for that to come. Stepping outdoors and taking it all in - sights, sounds, smells. Ahhh...life. So many miss that. It is perhaps the best zen meditation one can get.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06544468563054087057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4956989639073843954.post-77476651983506267962010-03-06T16:42:33.322-05:002010-03-06T16:42:33.322-05:00A friend of mine once told me about the precise ch...A friend of mine once told me about the precise chemical reactions created at Disneyland. He said they have machines that puff the smells of fresh baked goods, pop corn, etc. <br /><br />I find it nerve-racking to experience a crazy barrage of "nice" smells. My classroom (despite teaching smelly seventh and eighth graders) does not have candles or air fresheners. The closest thing to "fresh air" I get is a few house plants (including some spice). Kids tell me they can smell the mint, but I think the smell is so subtle that it might be psychological more than anything else.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10956056168256756705noreply@blogger.com
