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. |

Congratulations on your virtual blogging adventure!](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/group-BCoF_2-1901868_14.gif) HI. Weather here is horrid. below 0 for several weeks. wind chills often 10 or 11 below 0. Last year someone put rats in our house. K says they were trying to stop us from using corn to heat our house. Did not work. Still heating with corn. However, we are experiencing lots of problems. Rats tore out a lot of the insulation last year. So now we have experienced loss of water for a couple days. And colder temps in the house than normal. Needless to say, I have not been cooking or cleaning as much and so am reading to keep my mind busy and don't have the screaming mimes too often. Temps in house running from 47 to 57 depending on the day and weather. Too cold for me to type well or think well, I guess. We have radiant heaters in a couple rooms which are the only rooms I want to be in most of the time. One book that was amusing," Don't Ever Get Old " by By Daniel Friedman. It is a series of two stories about a retired policeman and crime. Lots of laughs. Not going to stay here long today we just got the water back to washing machine and am catching up on washing clothes. I am grateful to all well wishes, for my birthday. Kept me motivated thinking there was warmer weather out there somewhere. Don't forget Spring is on its way. See Ya. apondia#1781748 |
