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.
Great that you learned to read early, as did I, at three and a half from my grandmother, by asking her the letters on her wall-calendar. And yes, we do get to have different teachers for different things in life.
Interesting story, Judith. I think you're familiar with tornados. I've experienced two, thankfully we weren't in the direct path for the brunt of the damage. It takes a community to restore things back to some kind of normalcy.
I've written my own obituary and I've updated it each time I've moved. I've got some more work to do to finish my updated will but if something were to happen my existing will won't be the worst case scenario either. I just feel that the more I have in order the less stress my children will have on their plates.
Design your own week-long cruise vacation. What would you do? eat? See? Is there a theme? Let your imagination run wild. *Bigsmile*
A CRUISE?
If I had my druthers it would be one of the ones that go down the coast of Alaska. I would load a kindle with books for reading, spend time doing yoga classes, read, and take side trips into some of the coast line towns that the cruise offers. I would need to take some powerful binoculars; so, I could watch the ocean and coast as we sail past.
I could take a train across country to get to the starting point of the cruise. All imaginary thinking, because I have critters that are dear to me. I might make it through a whole week without them, but I would not want to try.
