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 |

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
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMlFpv0G7F8Our 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

Love your little Halloween display. I haven’t gotten anything out just yet.
The pig planter is Cute! Yes, we had the pledge every morning in school and my learning style is visual. My mind always allowed other thoughts to distract me when listening to a lecture class.
I'm sorry to hear you're having such pain again. Such interesting things to be seen on your walks. I so enjoyed seeing the new season of Survivor beginning last night. As always, a great mix of fascinating personalities.
Yes I grew up doing the Pledge of Allegiance every morning at school. And as a HS teacher, if I had a first period class we did the Pledge every day as well. Most of the smaller school districts in this area do a Veteran's Day program every year, with students doing patriotic songs and readings. And local veterans are honored guests.
Your flamingo skeleton is so fun, and I love the pig planter, too! We've been watching High Potential, too - good show. I forgot about the Pledge of Allegiance part of your conversation starter - when I was teaching, the 5th graders had the honor of leading the Pledge every day. It was something they greatly looked forward to - speaking on the PA system!
Such nice thankfuls and your Halloween quilt is spooky cool! Thanks for joining Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
Love your happy little pumpkin and yes, we did say the pledge of allegiance every morning before we started class.
I am a visual/learn by doing kind of person. Though, as a teacher I covered all styles with young children. I did the pledge while growing up and as a teacher, we did a school wide pledge over the speaker each morning. Some traditions never fade. Thank you for linking up and have the very best weekend ahead.
What fun! I would love to go photographing with you sometime. Aloha!
