I LIKE Thursday. #14

 Good Morning everyone! I’m going to try to find a few likes today! And then you can hop on over to Not Afraid of Color and check out LeeAnna's likes this week. There she has a list of other bloggers who LIKE to link up. 


Beside My Chair! (or bedside this week)



You see a Kindle plugged in (green), underneath the Kindle is a red spiral notebook. It's my Word Journal. I keep track of words I find while reading that I don't know for sure. Then I look them up and record the definition and where I found them. What book, what page! There is an iPad plugged in(pink). A box of tissue ( Puffs with lotion), hand cream (Working Hands, the only one that works on my split thumb in the winter), lip balm (any kind will work, I pick up freebies at hotels, the dentists office, any where I see one), and Icy Hot rub. I use this and many others though my favorite is a locally produced balm called Unker's! Magic in a jar!. Last but not least my favorite item. A ceramic dog face I made for my grandmother years ago. I got it back when she passed. It holds my glasses at night. 



Also beside my bed is this bag of books. Some I have read and some I have not. I made the bag 2 years ago. Actually, I made two. I donated one to the silent actions that supports our county library. 


I put up some more Fall/Halloween decor. 


I don't have a kitchen quilt, but this table runner works. I need a Fall/Halloween Kitchen quilt. I have this large basically blank wall( well it has wallpaper in very dated blue and mauve flowers! Ugh!)


This little pillow is on the living room couch. Made from the leftovers from the table runner above.
and

this pillow. A stitchery I did several years ago. It doesn't sit very well on our leather couch, so the photo was taken outside on the back deck. 

This quilt was at the quilt show last weekend. I have that panel. I like this setting. There were lots of quilts. Here is one....


On Ringo Lake. A Bonnie Hunter pattern, executed by my friend Jean. She won the Patti Knotts Award. A coveted award in our local quilt show. Patti Knotts and her mom started the quilt show in our small community 38 years ago. They are both gone now, and there is a committee to keep it going. 




I guess that's about all this week. I am liking the warm temperatures and the cool nights. That's why fall is my favorite time of year. I leave you with another picture of Halloween socks. There is a witch on the ankle and the words "heh" "heh" in black and orange. 





So now you probably have TMI about me. 





Stay Busy and Stay Happy and Healthy

  2. Puff's with lotion is a must have, same with the kindle, lip balm and all the other little things one must have - I keep the icyhot in the bathroom though so I can immediately wash as I end up touching my eyes and do not want that!

  3. I LOVE getting to know you, and like you more each time! Great socks! I like that witches hat quilt... I need one of those myself. The glasses holder is cute, and what tutorial did you follow to make the READ bag, if any? I want to do some free form letters that way

  4. Hi Judy! I love to use Working Hands, too. It's the only thing that has saved my hands with all of this hand washing. the palms of my hands were so dry and rough, they sounded like sandpaper and were itching like crazy. ~smile~ Roseanne

  5. Cute socks and Halloween stuff you've gotten out! I haven't gotten around to that yet, except for the pumpkins I've grown. I'm curious about the Working Hands cream - I get those splits in my thumbs, too. Is it available in the regular store, like Walmart or the grocery store? Sounds like I need some!

  7. Oh I love your Fall pillows and your cute socks. I use the reminders on my IPAD to make lists and it works great. I'm like you...love new words and finding out what they mean or how to use them in a sentence! Enjoy your day!

  10. Cute socks, fun likes! Thanks for sharing! Love fall but we've had some unseasonably warm days this week. That's more than enough of that! But yes, it's still cool at night at least.
