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. |
![]() As for the news: Charlotte Police are releasing the film that will keep the city stirred up/ Obama vetoed the 9-11 bill/interview of Trump before the debate are also in the news. Since there is no prompt today I think I will just tell you how the day is here. After some really warm weather a cold front moved in. There was some light frost across the yard at 7 AM. So, no more tomatoes. this is my Daily news. We shopped for fresh foods at a roadside Amish vegetable stand. Now, the frig is full of fresh produce. The homegrown cantaloupe is so good we are thinking of bringing home a few more. The frost is going to kill the tomato plants. I better bring the olive tree in off the porch. I brought all the other plants in last week. The Olive Tree seemed to be ok with the cold nights so I left it. Now, its time to move it in. I found a good book on my kindle and started reading it. I have lots of unread books waiting. If I find one I think I will like at Amazon I often download several then read kindle books from the library instead. Library kindle books have return dates so I will always read them first. When our wifi came up missing for a month I had lots of back log on reading material to finish. In the last prompt hoarding came up as a subject. We should do a prompt on hoarding vs. storing possessions over the years. K puts up wildlife cameras so we can watch the wildlife around the property but there have been so many dogs barking on this end of the road that no wildlife is moving. I wonder what is keeping the dogs in an uproar all night long? OK. Until we hear from fivesixer or someone else about an official prompt, this is my entry for the day. Today's blog is not particularly relevant to a subject of world news. Be Happy anyway. |
