Sanguine Tenacious Tidings

Not Keepen UP!

I seem to be moving really slow lately. We have moved some furniture around to make a better seating arrangement in the family room where the new stove in situated. Going to bed early and getting up later is causing me to get less done during the day. So here is some quick thoughts on prompts.

Movie Night?

I can’t be solely responsible for choosing a movie. I would have to take suggestions from the participants and then chose I guess. As for food. It would be chips, pretzels, popcorn, salad homemade lasagna, soft drinks or water or coffee and tea, cake and cookies. Robert Waltz can bring beer but any extreme inebriation will get the offender and early out. Before the movie everyone should be responsible to bring a funny quote to read. I think we would eat and snack during the movie. The movie would have to be something I have not seen yet.

A crucible moment in my life? My life is full of them.

My mother died. Which caused us to leave our home and live in an apartment over my Aunt and uncle’s home. A move to a new school. A different way of living. Numerous moves after that. A couple different schools until my dad settled in one place.

A new skill?

Last year I split most of the wood we used. Not a skill I wanted to learn. Since then I wondered if it would be fun to learn to throw a hatchet? I understand there are places opening where you can go to practice and maybe take a few lessons. Although with the county shutting down again. I guess it won’t be any time soon. Learning to fuel and run the new corn stove in a new skill. A lot easier than splitting wood. I like the thought of learning to throw knives. I like the NCIS agent in NCIS Los Angeles. She is the sniper and can throw knives. An interesting character for a women.


Someone is haunting the property nights again. I wish I could catch them. They let down my bird feeders one night. Not a good thing.

I’ve been keeping an eye out for a squirrel nest a couple years now. I learned they winter in large colonies to keep warm. I think I found a big one high in a cherry tree in the yard. It’s close to the house probably why so many of them raid the cat food on the balcony.

This was quick but I wanted you to know I’m still here and making trouble in an ordinary way. Keep on keep en on. Stay safe.
