Sanguine Tenacious Tidings

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.

You did just fine! They weren't easy word choices.

In response to "July Sales"

I love the craft fairs but not shopping in the bigger stores. When I was laid up after my back surgery I watched a few Christmas in July movies on Hallmark.

Clothing is definitely more expensive these days, sales matter.

In response to "Grandma is at home today."

My paternal uncle lived near my grandfather.

My maternal grandmother lived close to family in the hollow.

My father's family tended to live close, even moving together to Oklahoma and South Carolina.

My mother's family scattered.

I wish... but we both know about wishes without wings.

My experience in Thailand was mixed, but I don't doubt that families remain close as friends often do. In Costa Rica it can be multi-generations living in the same area.

In response to "Grandma is at home today."

I used to spend every summer with my grandfather and I loved it. During the school year I would spend weekends at my other grandparents and I enjoyed that time very much.

As a grandparent my older grandchildren would spend the summer with me. Then in 2021 when my daughter (my youngest) and her boyfriend split she asked for help, so we moved to Vegas. We share a house together, my husband, my daughter, my granddaughter and me. It works for all of us.

In response to "Fixing it."

Yes. I have a ton of things to fix this year and I don't move as fast as I use to. I do expect a very snowy or just cold winter so I wand to be ready.

In response to "Fixing it."

Those who live in the colder climates see July and August as the months to get things done before winter returns. When I lived in Maine, after the 4th July family camping trip, we harvested some of the early veggies, then canning them for later. (I made pickles with a lot of baby cukes and canned tons of green and wax beans. In the evenings we cut and stacked firewood in the woodshed.
Hope all goes smoothly for you.

In response to "Wilderness Trees"

I can see the green contrasting the hay fields in my mind. I miss seeing fields and orchards.

Riding outside is definitely more scenic.

In response to "Pets as companions"

Always treat an animal as if it understands your language. They understand more than people give them credit for most of the time. - Completely agree. If not the words, they understand tone and behaviour.

Fixing it.

Let July be July. Let August be August. And let yourself just be even in the uncertainty. You don't have to fix everything. You don't have to solve everything. And you can still find peace and grow in the wild of changing things.”~ Morgan Harper Nichols

Hi.

I have a lot of peace. Just also have a lot of things to fix. And, I don't mind fixing the ones I can fix. I have lots to do before winter hits. Lots of getting it done pleases me, because down the road of time I will be able to just read again. July is July so, I am starting it new. Happy 4th of July to those who celebrate it.
