Shall we get started with a few pics of my walks this week? Okay!
I loved the broken sidewalks, the way they looked like a neurographic drawing,
so took a pic of some to print and color in then one evening they were plastered over!!! Clean, new, no longer of interest
Then I saw what I think looks like Yoda.... heh heh it's still there!
there are always golf balls bouncing around us, (not a fan) so when I saw this I thought, another one....
when I looked closer, I saw it was a mushroom from our rain and humidity this week!
Oh forgot to say, Halloween yard decorations are popping up... loved these

Conversation starter this week
Did you get a new notebook and paper to use that year? I remember picking a notebook was a big deal.
I remember the year I got thin ruled
paper instead of big lines. I remember getting flair pens to use instead
of pens and I had a cartridge ink pen one year too. Do you still like
having notebooks and calling them journals?
I loved the organization (dividers) of it all.
I admit those little snap rings sometimes bit me!
there always seemed to be a plastic zip bag in my new notebooks, with tools I seldom used.
(We recently got something I did use back then, a wax pencil. We'll use it to jot dates on open food containers)
I still have notebooks, I keep recipes we try ad like in them, and love journals, can't have too many
watching on tv
SO excited dancing with the stars and high potential shows are back on tv
(I'm a dancer, or was before one too many injuries) I used to study ballet, tap, ballroom, and cajun jitterbug! I miss contra the most, and waltzing.... it's a real skill to follow someone's lead.
Watching on youtube:
love history? This is a view into 17th century France....fascinating to me

I like cool/ cold temps!
let me know if you did an I Like post I can include here, and please visit these folk to see what they liked this week. I'd love it if you answered today's question with a story about your childhood
I still buy notebooks - big one for daily written diary and small ones for jotting all the things i need to do or get next time I'm in town.
ReplyDeletesaw an arty idea recently - peel an orange in one piece, ink the inside and stamp it on a page then make something out of the random design it gives you as a starter.
ReplyDeleteThose mums that Drew bought you are so pretty! I love fall color like that. I enjoy seeing what you see in your walks around the neighborhood, too - yes, that's Yoda! Have a happy Thursday!
ReplyDeleteLots of Halloween stuff popping up around here, too. I can see why you thought that mushroom was a golf ball. Yummy flying geese!
ReplyDeleteNew school supplies were always a big deal when I was growing up, and then as a teacher too. A fresh clean notebook was exciting. I still find myself browsing the school supply area in stores. The mushroom "golf ball" certainly was a good imitation. I haven't bought any mums yet, but I love the colors so maybe over the weekend I'll get one for my front porch.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the beauty you see and for hosting us. Aloha!

That mushroom does look like a golf ball and your mums are so pretty! I just finished watching The Resident on Netflix. I miss it already. It was such a great series.
ReplyDeleteI watch High Potential too! Love that show! I haven't seen many Halloween decorations up yet. We still have to decorate for the fall. Boy, this summer flew by!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter and I watched Dancing With the Stars this week. Loved it! I haven't watched High Potential, but might have to check it out. Thank you for linking up!
ReplyDeleteI do remember getting new notebooks and that I really liked the ones that came with dividers. I always felt so organized when I had those. Had to use fountain pens for the longest time and I remember how great it was to finally get to use a ballpoint. No more inky fingers!
