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. |
![]() Ok. The bagels I baked yesterday turned out yummy. I used a new mini donut silicone pan. I baked in my Nuwave Oven. I started editing " Willow" Wednesday and Thursday. I also was able to write two new scenes. So, progress makes me happy. I won't make any progress today because I spent the day cleaning porches. One of the porches has windows. It has not been cleaned adequately in 5 years. The windows would not run in the tracks this year properly when I put in the screens. Now I know why. The tracks were infested with all kinds of bugs you name it. Dead bug bodies and live new critters from this year were washing out with the sprayer. I did not want to do the job but now I'm glad I did and also glad it is done for the season. I just down loaded 4 library books so writing "Willow" will conflict with reading but I'm determined to make progress. Summer will be here soon. Lots to do. Busy, Busy, Busy. |
