A Journal to impart knowledge and facts

July 22, 2015

I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done.

I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them.

I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC.

In response to "Pine Woods"

I wish I had a dog or cat or pet. Maybe if I rented from someone who had them I could travel and then come home to my friends.

In response to "winter wonderland"

My family buried secrets. I'll never know the answers to at least two events that apparently traumatized me as a child. I'm still bitter about that. Yes, I know I should let go; but, they colored my life for most of it.

Unfortunately, I do the same.

In response to "Favorites"

It's hard for me to pick a favorite, too, but I also like and remember Robert Frost's "Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening." That's the one I decided to memorize to recite to the class back in grade school. It still often pops in my mind. I think it's the easy rhythm and rhyme and the great description so well woven in. The only favorite book I remember is from way back also, "The Little Airplane." Maybe these are because I'm still a kid, even though seven decades later.

You seem to enjoy shopping for the Holidays. Have a great day.

In response to " Dependency"

my phone does it all but I am constantly frustrated with the amount of text messages I received during the election and now with Christmas approaching. I'm spending too much time blocking numbers and reporting them as spam.

In response to "Thankful Memories"

I agree with you. I love changing it up every now and again.

Pine Woods

I inhale the essence of:

Good morning.

Pine is the essence of winter at this time of year, I think. Because of trees and wreaths for the holidays. Pine livens up the household and gives off a scent that reminds of walking along a forest trail.

No scents inside the house full of animals is pleasant. Two of my dogs have hunting genes and are inclined to smell anything that involves other species like birds on the front porch or mice in the walls. They also have exceptional hearing, which causes them to alert when there are birds at the feeder, deer browsing near the house, or rabbits hopping around close to a window or the porch.

Winter still solidly at home outside, More snow in the forecast. After a few years of mild winters this is just not fun.

Keep warm.
