Sanguine Tenacious Tidings

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.

kare. Get a ski pole. It is what I use in winter can dig into snow and ice. Shows me snow depth and helps me have good footing on ice. Found mine years ago in the local Good Will store for cheap price.

Beautiful entry! I love how you relate to things and your conclusions, such as: "Weather has its' own ideology." Very writerly!

In response to "Weather Moment"

IMHO, The weather is less predictable than 50 years ago. Regardless, there are cycles.

We have had brutal winds this week, some snow, 16°F right now. The cold is important to kill off the nasties and snow in the mountains will help our streams come summer.

I got a cane for walking but it won't help with ice.

In response to "Coincidence!"

I'm very concerned that more experienced people are being replaced in every dynamic of our society and that more and more incidents will occur. I'm at a loss as to why neither of their radar detected the other's presence. And how much the radio chatter was a distraction.

I am very sorry for all involved, their lives were taken too soon.
As I write a response to you a private medical transport plane crashed in Philadelphia Friday evening. The first responders are dealing with a fire as the result of the crash. Did you know there was a small plane crash last week in California and another one in Nevada.

In response to "Pine Woods"

I wish I had a dog or cat or pet. Maybe if I rented from someone who had them I could travel and then come home to my friends.

In response to "winter wonderland"

My family buried secrets. I'll never know the answers to at least two events that apparently traumatized me as a child. I'm still bitter about that. Yes, I know I should let go; but, they colored my life for most of it.

Unfortunately, I do the same.

Lucky Charms/Please Pass the Milk

The Wildcard Round! Today's winner, chosen by Virtual Dice from all eligible entries, will receive 5000 GPs.

What makes you feel lucky?

Definition:
Luck: Success or failure brought by chance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luck Luck also, takes into account unseen forces that influence peoples life for good or bad. Wikipedia compares these forces to the study of Physics in science. Without experimental conclusion these forces could be angels, devils, other people manipulating your life behind your ability to catch them at it, or the weather, neutron movement in the area. electrons banging together, who knows?

What makes me feel Lucky? On a good day I can feel the forces moving in my favor if my decisions work in my favor. I don't have charms or special ways to achieve luck. I just cast my decision out there and watch it work or fail. Unfortunately, when things don't work I can be very very noisy. (a bad case of the screaming memes)

Always followed by the question Why?? I always want to know why? I'm inclined to follow God around and yell why, just tell me why? Unfortunately, I don't always like the answer.

Today's quote:

http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/tag/luck “Shallow men believe in luck or in circumstance. Strong men believe in cause and effect.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

This book is a Hoot!
