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.
My grandmother's family name in Ireland was O'Tenney but when they came to the states they were Tenney, ditched the O. I would love to know more about my ancestors.
As a poet I despise any attempt, AI or not, to change my words.
I mostly write as I speak so grammar means less to me. I rarely write essays.
Thai is similar to English that both languages have silent letters and borrowed spelling. Spanish is much easier for spelling; Thai and English have simpler grammar though.
Prompt: Have fun with these words in your entry today-- accident. native, risk, draw, degree, tail, teal, cultural, end and encourage.
HI.
If you have cats be careful not to step on a tail as you walk around where they lay. Having a dog or cat sleeping on a sunshiny place on the floor can be a risk. I think of all the elderly warnings about accidents and falls when I see my crowd of creatures spread out in the golden morning sun on the floor.
The sky was a brilliant teal this morning when I put the dogs out for the second time. October brings in a lot of cultural autumn news. Whatever degree of cultural news you get for any month may depend on where you live on the earth. Usually, this month is best for natives to take a ride and view the brilliant colors that are a seasonal picture of the forests in the area. The beautiful views this time of year are a draw for anyone who wants a country drive. It is a good way to encourage some peace into your day.
