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.

Excellent! A day to catch up on my blog *News* . Just put this in as a thought I do not really believe in everything I read so don't call the *Sheriff* .

The farrier came yesterday to do the horses feet, all went well *Horse* . For you non horsey types I want to say the job of putting shoes on horses or trimming horse feet can be very strenuous *BootR* . At one time, there were not many people around Northwest Pa. that worked in this profession *Sob* . Thanks to people dedicated to animal care we now have more farriers to call on, who will do the job without causing stress to the horses *ThumbsUpR*.

I baked an *Apple* pie yesterday. The apples were from one of the *Apple* *Tree* in the yard. Used ready made crust from the store *ButtonT* . Had to improvise the last emoticon I could not find the emoticon for pie *Think*

Did anyone see the news report about the little girl who uses a robot to go to school *Question* She has an illness that affects her breathing and circulatory system *Whistle* . So the school *TrophyS* set up a two wheel robot with a remote screen. She can sit with a computer *At* home a mile away from the school. With a link like skipe she can fully participate *Info* with the other children in the classroom. They put down red tape lines so she can control the robot from her *Computer* and actually move where ever the class goes. She can drive up to individual classmates and speak *Speaker* to them directly.
The robot *Martian* looks like the one Sheldon used on The Big Bang Theory.

Heat with heavy humidity here all week; excellent *Bug* weather. We had heavy rain, *Lightning* and thunder last night. If the skies stay clear today I might be mowing the lawn *Sun* . See Ya *Angelic* .
