I Got It Right!!!!!!
Well I started with the poolish yesterday (see "I can't get it right") and put it in the oven with just the light on, as was recommended. Tonite I added the rest of my ingrediants and used the KA standup mixer. Instead of just mixing the dough until it was just mixed I let the KA go for about 10 min. The dough was drastically different.
It did not color real well, probably because I was a little nervous and did not want it to over bake.
Anyway, I let it raise once and then put it in the preheated dutch oven. The loaf raised great and I am waiting for it to cool before we slice into it.
But the help and hints I received from some of you really helped and I thank you!
