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. |
Lilli sent me a new badge above. It's a ghostly award. 10/19/2020: List 5 items from my bucket list: I don't have much of a bucket list. 1. Short term: Adopt another dog and get into an online training class with it. 2. Long Term: Live to be 100 years old. 3. Short Term: Make it through this winter. Keep up my yoga and exercises, keep getting up early. 4. Long Term: Keep riding my bicycle. So, far only been on it once all summer. Some one rides passed the house several times a week on a path around our country block. Keep thinking I should try it. 5. Long Term: Keep writing and reviewing. What is your definition of an adventure? It depends on the day. Some days it is just getting out with the dog and walking around the barn, house and yard. Lately, since October started adventures are getting some of the outside things caught up before snow starts flying. The dog pen needed some fix up and that is close to done now. The barn floor is raked after haying. (which I was told I did not have to do, but what else am I doing?) K and I cleaned and fixed up the flu for the corn stove when it arrives. I use to go walking on one or another local trail once in awhile but, did not do it because of Covid 19 this summer. I read 4 books in 11 days. Two were audio books so I put together puzzles while I read those. Yesterday, I walked my companion dog whose name is Char. Being inside was driving the two of us into energy bundles about to burst. It's not really all that adventurous or bucket listy {I made this word up} but, just the way life is on a day to day basis. Bye For Now. |
