I Like Thursday # 362 dog days

 

lovely patio pots of wildflowers blooming
welcome to this week's short list of likes... starting with the patio pots of wildflowers. 

I'm coping and being fairly quiet by necessity. I'm enjoying tv, videos, books, and a bit of sewing. 

I'm still trying to do two posts a week, when I can, and hope to share some sewing and painting on Saturday... I added to my little quilted wardrobe this week with a pair of bell bottoms and a halter top

here's a peek

audiobooks enjoyed

finished this

a fun story about a teacher's life working at a boarding school. Fun romp by a new to me author. I plan to read all she has written now.

second book I've read by Kate Collins and I really like her style

my friend Cindy said she liked bubbly water, and we finally got some, it's really good flavored but not sweetened sparkly water


 gotta make this...

 next: my new obsession the show jungle school for orphaned baby apes

School's back in.... for baby orangutans.... my heart soared with this video, and tears flowed, I related to them and how much they are like the best of us humans

 Milo's Moment

Hi y'all.... don't you like sitting on the back porch in the early evening, when your peeps are done work? 

I wanted to say I enjoyed some quiet play this week with the mama... we play the game :Roll It

I get Mama settled in her porch chair, I get on the other side of the table and chomp on my squeaky ball  for a while, to get it all wet and perfect to roll, then when they forget I'm there, I roll it under the table to surprise them! 

they always make that singsong voice I like, then say roll it, and roll it back to me and I have to grab it before it goes off the porch!

sometimes I have to get up to chase it, sometimes I telescope out my neck to grab it!

It is a good way to keep them occupied without mama having to run around. My favorite game is roll over in the grass and daddy wrestles me for the ball but they won't let me do that now, something about allergies. 

now please visit mama's friends to see what they liked this week

  4. Your flowers are pretty! I have liked Jenny Colgan's books, too - I don't think I've read that one, though. Looks like Milo comes up with some good games!

  5. The little halter top is adorable!!! I think each outfit you are adding to the closet is cuter than the last. I may need to look into both books you recommended as I'm in the mood for something new to read. Hope you are feeling a bit better this week.

  6. I like Bubly water too, at least most flavours. Hubby likes the lime and I really don't which is unusual.

  14. Lovely flowers. A joy to behold.
    I loved the cod recipe. I might make that the coming week if I remember to buy capers.
    I always love Milo's story. Things seem to be a bit better (healthwise)
