Sanguine Tenacious Tidings

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.

In response to "Madagasgar"

When I was in Monaco, a lemur reached out and stole my hat. The lemur put it on it's head and leaped around the enclosure bobbing it's head in amusement. It was close to a half hour before it threw my hat back out of the enclosure. They are quite playful and engaging creatures to watch.

We humans are also related to horses and hay. Not closely related... even if we rest in the hay while the horse is munching away.

All of life is related. I'd love to see lemurs. I'd gladly visit Madagascar; but, I'd spend a week or two there.

Can you imagine how sore our bodies would be after riding a camel all day?

Virtual has some advantages when it comes to exploring different locations. I calculated our trip out for the month and it was 109,455.00 a piece with airfare, average cost of meals at 150.00 per day, hotels, transportation, and our different daily adventures.

I've loved libraries since I was a little kid. Still do!

And some of the most helpful people are librarians!

Libraries are my favorite place to go still at 67.

Thank you for reading my blog. Your story is wonderful. And to think you bypassed censorship in your own home: fabulous!

In response to "Stay on Track."

I think I need to do a survey on sexuality and gender. So many people have not had interactions with the LGBTQ community. I had a friend who was an "I for intersex" and know an "A for asexual" ... Historically there was an "E for eunuch" (and I suspect that category still exists).

So much easier to just suspend the labels and call people by their name/nickname or title: Vaughn, Officer Paula, Miss Jessica, Duck, Teacher Nessy... No one needs to inspect another person's underwear.

As for 'snowed under' ... well it's spring ... this too shall melt.

Do no harm is the best way to live.

Thanks for checking in, hope things settle down soon.

5 Songs

Quote; Don McLean from American Pie, "A Generation Lost in Space With No Time Left To Start Again."
Quote: John Denver, "I've had a vision of Eagles and Horses, High on a ridge,I'm flying again." or from Windsong="When is the singer who sang the first song."
Quote from Paul Simon's album Rhythm of the saints: Spirit Voices: "some stories are magical meant to be sung"The whole album is a favorite.

The listed musics are favorites because the lyrics and rhythms speak to my heart. These are people listening to the sounds of the earth and hearing the cries of the living.

My favorites change over the years. But some don't. Billy Joel=The Stranger, The Fifth Dimension=Age of Aquarius, Norman Greenbaum=Spirit In The Sky, John Denver=Eagles and Horses, Otis Redding=Sittin On The Dock of The Bay
