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.
One of the problems with media these days is that the audience expects instant news and analysis. Extra points ($$$) if the headline is outrageous. The old adage "think before you speak" isn't honored, neither is fact-checking nor truth.
I knew about Ceasar, but was surprised to find out how far back that dates goes when it comes to disasters. It's no wonder Shakespeare went for that date
The downed tree is still laying in the driveway. Now it is in pieces. My youngest son came over and helped cut it up.
Very cold and wet yesterday. Today sunshine with some cloud cover. Maybe it will warm up some. Maybe we will move part of this tree to a place it will not interfere with plowing. My weather app says snow on Thanksgiving. The deer we often see in the hayfield are hiding. Bowhunting season started.
The lawns are still green and grow when the sun shines. I will be interested to see what amount of snow falls our way. Lots of people think it will be a snowy year.
