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. |
Prompt: What's Your Favorite Board Game? I like scrabble the best. I bought a new game that is a travel buddy. There is not a lot of opportunity to use it. It is a special edition that can be used long distance if another person has one like it because the letters lock into the trays. The lack of interest from others near me doesn't slow down the opportunities to play the game, because I play on my kindle against the computer. Thanksgiving dinner was a success. Nothing burned. The food was delicious. There were lots of left overs so I'm eating it over again today. I love left over Thanksgiving dinners. Everyone sat around catching up on family chatter. The Grandchildren went out and had a snow battle. Then played games from kindle apps later. It was an all around normal Thanksgiving celebration. I am always thankful for normal days. I went for another 4 wheeler ride today. It was a longer ride. I got lots of time to get used to the machine and begin to feel more comfortable riding it. I drive slow, old lady speed. It gives me time to look around and see more parts of the farm I haven't explored for awhile. Most of the snow has melted and I was able to clean barn this morning. The skies are still over cast and threatening. I have not heard the weather but I'm guessing rain maybe. So, I went for a long walk with the dog. My dog had to stay in his kennel yesterday because he can't take the riotous children's play. So today he needed extra play to wear down his energy. I like to play fetch but he likes tug or keep away. We finally compromised and played find the toy. I hide the toy he finds it. ![]() ![]() Now I'm going to rest and read. Bye. Happy Trails. |
