Microblogvember
On a snowy day like today, it’s nice to be able to sink into the warmth and safety of a comfortable chair by the fire.
The official Washington State fish is the steelhead trout. However, our house favorite is the coho salmon.
Although the trend is towards a warmer climate, it has been a damn cold November.
On the topic of backyard birds, I finally identified a little brown bird that has been scratching under the thistle feeder. It’s a juvenile spotted towhee. It doesn’t look anything like the adult but the behavior is characteristic.
My motivation was tested today on a difficult jigsaw puzzle.
I missed yesterday’s mbnov challenge word. I guess that shows a lack of commitment.
Even though I am retired, I retain my professional interest in maps and the data that go into them.
I find that reading and participating in conversations on Mb have lead me to adjust my whole approach to social media. It has nothing to do with the blue bird. I closed that door a while ago.
Farm animals out for a graze.
On these unusually cold November mornings I have to break up the ice on the chickens' water bucket. (Although I see that they didn’t wait around for me.)
Every morning I repeat the same farm chores, but I also take notice of the beauty of the early morning.
I think I can walk into any room in our house and find a novel I haven’t finished.
This mystery tire showed up at our place several years ago. I assumed it belonged to our son-in-law, who was storing some things at our place as they moved to a new house. When I recently asked if he wanted it back, he said it wasn’t his.
We use lots of rain barrels for watering the gardens on our farm.
As we were waiting at the pharmacy for our fifth covid shot, I told my wife that a mobile immunization service could make a good franchise opportunity.
I admit to being an anglophile, and I’ve always liked hearing the British pronunciation of aluminium.
Although I tried to adjust my technique, I still haven’t found the best method for extracting walnuts from their shells.
My suspicion is that by the end of the day I will be following 20 more Micro.bloggers.
A cup of hot Irish breakfast tea will minister to my sense of well-being.
I’m certain that I have never spent this much effort trying to use a particular word in a post.
