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. |
September Days:  Reference: https://www.thespruce.com/reasons-to-celebrate-in-september-4178816 September is 30 days of celebration. Sometimes a cool down from August summer heat. Some of the holidays listed in the reference are: Eat an extra dessert Day / National Cheese Pizza Day / World Coconut Day / National double cheeseburger Day every day on the calendar has something listed. Most of the celebrations have to do with food. There is a winter storm warning out on the web which says a particular part of the USA will get heavy snows and dangerous stormy weather this winter. It has been quite a few years since we experienced any kind of heavy snow. In any event we will be as ready for winter this year as any other year. Today's weather is definently cooler than August, at least today. The goldenrod is in bloom. A beautiful golden yellow border between the mowed hay fields and the forests. I should bag it and sell it by the pound. It is an herb and grows wild here. It has a host of uses and can be made into a tea or oil or just eaten raw. By the end of this month, we may be finished with lawn mowing for the year. Lawnmowing will be replaced with snow plowing if we really get a lot of snow. The last two years we did not plow because the snow was not heavy, and it would quickly melt. I'm thinking of Christmas presents though, I like to get my shopping done early. September for me is a cross over month. Good-bye to summer Hello to Autumn. Actually, the trees are already losing their leaves which isn't quite normal. Have a good day, whatever September brings. One day at a time. |
