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. |
What is the best thing to come out of staying at home? Quote: Today, the glorification of the word FREEDOM has made it impossible for people to sincerely believe a man can truly be content in social isolation or within the confines of home, but the fact remains that most of us anyways spend our entire life time chained to our thought process and being confined to our belief palaces.” ― Shahenshah Hafeez Khan https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/tag/stay-home Covid has seemed far away unless I need to grocery shop. I normally stay at home. Before Covid I could feel a kind of pressure building in the USA. Especially, fueled by the shootings, new ones in the news daily. So, staying home is not a problem for me. I have relatives with children. Stay at home was difficult, when children could no longer use their energy for sports and play grounds. Covid and masks still rule our society to some extent. Stores started taking down mask signs when it appeared a lot of the population was being vaccinated. Now, the news has indicated vaccinations are not enough. It's back to wearing masks when shopping. I saw a headline from CNN about erratic weather being a warning of severe storms yet to come. Because staying at home is a peaceful thing for us, and the news is broadcasting possible difficulties with weather and new strains of Covid for the fall it feels like living in two different societies at once. One separate and quiet with daily routine the other constantly in turmoil. So, the best thing for me is the steady daily routine. Hope you are experiencing peace in your home life as well. ![Merit Badge in Appreciation
