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.
Vermont Country Store sells pure Vermont maple syrup still. I get Maine maple syrup from my son every year, he would never mix anything in. But would I trust other sources, not so much.
Prompt: “Many years ago, I made a New Year’s resolution to never make New Year’s resolutions. Hell, it’s been the only resolution I’ve ever kept!” — D.S. Mixell
HI.
Every year I say I don't make New Year's resolutions. Sometime during 2025 I said, "I should have made a New Year's resolution, because I was able to achieve some of the cleaning in the house, I had been attempting for a while.
The reality is no resolution of that type is ever safe here. So, no resolutions will be attempted.
Wishing you all a Happy New Year with lots of blessings. Having stated the above I am now thinking of all the nice things I would like to happen in 2026. It takes action I guess not just resolution.
