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. |

I read a short article today in science news telling about scientist with long titles added to their names, discovering the proper way for an Elephant to walk. They walk on their tippy-toes. There is no limit to the type of information a scientist will discover. I'm keeping up with the Nano Prep Challenge so far. October is a great month for discovering interesting social aspects of the characters I am writing about. K is setting up his computer on windows 10. He is very impatient with the pass word system and other slightly more intricate ideas used on 10. I warned him 10 is flakier than 7. Wonder what 11 will be like. 10 almost leaves us rural bugs behind. They assume unlimited internet for everyone. Just isn't here yet. ![]() Lots of sunshine to chase away the heavy frost this morning. I'm off the read a book. I'm just slightly to busy. ![]() Bye! ![]() |
