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. |
August is almost gone. I can sit at night contemplating life and think of lots of things I should blog about. Then, when I get here, I sit and stare at the blank page wondering what to write. We reconnected the upstairs bathroom and put a new floor down this month. Now, some siding is going up on the front part of the house. It used to be redwood siding. Now changing to cream colored vinyl. This month went from Day one-blink-day 23. I have a mastiff visiting me this week. So large, so gentle and sweet. It is still summer. Unseasonably cool weather for August. I wonder if we will have an early, deep snow winter. What will September bring? |
