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.

Have fun with these words : twinkle, sparkle, ornament, tree, hot cocoa, icicles, snowshoes, and deer tracks.

Outside icicles hang from the house eves. When I went outside to fill the bird feeders, I had to wear snowshoes. there were deer tracks around the feeders and of course the feeders were cleaned out completely as only a deer could manage. Just a quiet winter day.
