Sanguine Tenacious Tidings

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 "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.

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.

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

In response to "Thankful Memories"

Hope you had a happy Thanksgiving. Book festival here in Malaysia... and rain. Enjoy the snow if it comes your way.

Best Thanksgiving ever for me? Sardines and crackers.

In response to "Mentors are helpful"

I'm sure you were a great mom, even though you were young. You strike me as a highly caring and responsible person.

It's never too late to share the story with your children even if they're adults.

Large Purchase

Prompt:
"If you are buying a larger turkey than usual, make sure it will fit in the oven."
Mary Berry
What do you think is the lesson in this quote? Is Mary Berry talking about baking a turkey, only?

Maybe just means if you buy something make sure it fits where you are planning to put it. One time bought a pony. Had to cut the roof off the back of the station wagon to haul it home. Use to bring Dairy goats home from the sale barn in the back seat of the car.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Goals

Write about your goals for December.

HI out there in cyber land.

When I first read this, I thought, I don't have any goals for December. Then I decided I do have a goal. I'm going to play Christmas carols whenever Keith is not here. I like them only around Christmas time. Most of my goals center around one day at a time logic. I have not forgotten WDC December either just busy getting through Thanksgiving for now. Maybe I can write in December. I've started a list of things to write about. We will see. I'm not sure I can follow through.

I pulled the Decorations out of the closet this morning. That's not a small feat to accomplish.

Onward to Thanksgiving and the Christmas holidays.
