I like Thursday # 470 photos, Halloween decorations, dogs and conversation prompts

 

Welcome to this week's list of likes.... it must be shorter today as I am beset with physical pain.... 

Above is some wildflowers that just bloomed, with one of our Halloween decorations in the yard. 

I love flamingo, even flamingo ghost skeletons


on the walk this week... the mountains were smoke covered.... 
On this day we met a woman walking her daughter's dog... and chatted for a few minutes, a perfectly lovely conversation! 

Saw this vignette in someone's front yard.... pretty. Bet we'd like each other too

saw this cute pig 

this neighbor must like pigs, we saw several decorating their yard

I've been watching all this person's dog and cat interviews this week on youtube.... hilarious

Our conversation starter this week

1.Did you do the pledge of allegiance every morning and then sing a patriotic song? 

we did. We stood, hand on heart and said I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America

and to the republic for which it stands

one nation under God indivisible for liberty and justice for all

we were taught the Golden rule in Sunday School and from adults in our lives. 


2. what is your learning style, then and now? The main styles are auditory (hearing) rote or memorization, visual (maybe reading or seeing charts)  kinesthetic (that's me, learn by doing something like writing or making or touching) Are there other ways to learn I've forgotten? Is it still your style today?

When I taught quilt making skills, I tried to cover all styles in presentation to adults giving everyone a chance to find success. 

In college, if I took notes on paper I'd remember the info better. Now I watch (for example a dance move) then try it in order to remember it. Must be kinesthetic! 

I'm reading and watching TV. Enjoying this book on audio 



and this on E book


Survivor, and Golden bachelor started last night... whee!!! Along with "High Potential" dancing with the stars,  finale of Big Brother, and the return of Gilmore Girls my all time favorite show on Start TV 


I'm content. 

I am sewing a version of my spiral hexie block in light blues while watching TV this week

I'm sewing a Halloween quilt in the studio, well two actually. 



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
