Nasty Worms

I think that one my dog has worms. I’ve been noticing that she has been acting a bit odd while doing her business outside. So today I took a closer look and Bingo I see some nasty stuff going on in there. Looks like a trip to the vet is needed. One more thing to have to deal with. Got to nip it in the bud and hope that none of the other animals catch it.

Wild Life

We get all types of wild life around the place, but rarely do we see a bear. Well last night I saw one and he saw me and stood up on his hind legs for a moment or two and then decided to vacate promptly, which was best for the both of us.

Never Too Old To Learn

Last night I found myself doing some mindless surfing on the Internet. You know how you start clicking and clicking and the good lord only knows where you can end up in the end. I found myself at an interesting site, recruemedia.com, regarding retargeting, which is something that I knew absolutely nothing about. But I’m all about not be too old to learn anything, so I try and learn what I can, when I can.

I know that there is a lot involved with today’s computers and I have a lot to learn. But living the life that I do, on the farm and all, I don’t have all that much need to know so much of what is out there these days. My kid brother is the computer whiz of the family, he has taught me a good amount of things that I have found enlightening, just wish he could come around a bit more than he does at this point. I’m sure he would know all about retargeting companies and remarketing and all that goes along with that issue.

Out With The Old, In With The New

I’m finding that there are many things around this old place that are in need of repair or replacement, it seems to be a never ending battle. Last night I went to turn the Lamps on in the bedroom beside the bed and one of them wouldn’t turn on. The first thought was that it just needed a new bulb, so I tried that and that didn’t do the trick, sigh……

These old vintage Desk Lamps have been in the house since I can remember and I know that my mother really cherished them, but I’m afraid that they are in need of being replaced at this time. I really don’t want to go out and run from store to store in order to find a new set of lamps, so this weekend I’ll be searching online to find some to purchase. A much easier task that having to run into town.

Since it would make sense to buy one of the new Low Voltage Halogen Lamps, in an effort to reduce the energy being used thus reducing my electric bill each month, I’ll be looking for a pair of these to use. This isn’t something that I planned on doing over the weekend but I do need light in the bedroom and there isn’t an over head light in there to use.

Firewood

In this heat it really sucks getting firewood ready to burn for the cold winter months that are ahead us shortly. With the price of electricity who the heck can afford to heat their homes with the rising costs involved. So I’m trying to be a bit pro active and getting what I can get done while I can.
