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. |
Windows 10 will be with us soon. I've been reading some of www.Howtogeek.com's articles and they do give out some interesting preview facts. I found out if your brave you can get a preview copy to test drive. Although I tried out p15WDC before it was totally up I passed on windows 10 until they work out some of the bugs. I found a new (to me) storage container for peanut butter from (OXO), We use fresh 100 percent peanut butter mixed with peanut oil. When it is mixed I can put it in the snap up top container, then into the refrigerator where it stays fresh but does not get solid but stays creamy for spreading on soft bread. The containers cost about $15.00 online but I have been buying them in KMART for 12.00. The pop top comes apart for easy washing and then reassembles easily. It seems like every time we mow the lawn the humidity comes back builds up and grows higher grass. Snow shoveling in the winter and grass mowing in the summer. When we were shopping yesterday we drove passed many farmers getting their hay off the fields. It makes the air full of fresh mowing scent. I like the smell when the lawn in freshly mown but the smell of hay fields being cut is stronger and better yet. |
