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. |
I've been away again. Not by choice. For a few months my computer was down?? It simply would not boot. I struggled on to continue to get to WDC when I could use someone else's computer. Then most suddenly on the last week of May my seemingly dead computer booted up and has been working properly ever since. Spooky! Crazy things continued; however, my Kindle went dead the same day my computer started working. It would not charge. Just stayed silently not working. Then our WIFI stopped working. A couple phone calls to our provider resulted in new equipment, since we use a dish. It was decided the modem was out of date. That took another week to fix. So, no WIFI over Memorial Day. Now, all is seemingly well in our world of technology. The Kindle started charging this morning??? We did not slow down. Lots to do for spring. I planted lettuce. It is up, also some squash. Put in the porch screens. And started the grill for some great Memorial Day food. The TV is on an antenna, so we were able to watch the Memorial Day concert. Just goes to show, life goes on. Happy Trails. Stay Safe. |
