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.

owl for signature use I just read the first Jane Hawk series book by Koontz, Scary enough!




Tell us about a scary moment in your life?

I’m having one now. I bought a corn stove. It won’t be delivered yet. The company says maybe 4 weeks. We cannot get wood for our wood furnace. Because of Covid 19.

There are other alternatives and it is up to me to decide which one we use. I hate to be put on the spot to make the sole decisions.

K has been pushing me all summer because he thinks he is going to die . He has done 3 different Dr. recommended tests and seen a heart specialist. All say there is nothing wrong with his heart. The specialist showed him some proof that he is experiencing some side effects from a medication he was taking. He does not take it any more.

K has high blood pressure and sugar diabetes. According to the recent blood work it says the diabetes is under control. This is the first time he has been without a job of some sort in 40 plus years. Maybe it is partly a culture shock.

The good part is with K’s help the outside jobs are getting finished. Faster than I expected. Rain shows my ditch is working.

I did not fill bird feeders during July and August. Last week a young blue Jay was jumping up and down on the empty backyard feeder screeching. I put feed in it. Now, with colder days they, different species, are starting to hit the feeder early mornings.

So, life moves forward. By thanksgiving things will be slower, maybe?

Keep On Keepin On.
