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. |
Day 350 December 13, 2023 Prompt: "The desire to serve and contribute meaningfully to society does not fade with age." Rachel Bayani This is true. I find though, that it is difficult for me to add anything presently to any society around here. As long as we went to church there was always a way to bring aide in some way and continue to find ways to interact with other people. I had a failed attempt a few years ago to join a library book club. So, basically, I stay home with my dogs and just get by day to day. If you get too far out of the loop people, make up their minds about you, whether they know you or not. a lot of elderly people are stagnant when it comes to social interaction. You have to actively seek interaction during aging. |
