I Like Thursday: January 29, 2026

 


Hello and welcome to another edition of "I like Thursdays" sponsored by LeeAnna at Not Afraid of Color.


I like that I had two days hibernating because of snow on Sunday and Monday.  

Lucky likes this rug.  I only bring it out for snow days because it absorbs the snow we track into the house.  For some reason, all my dogs thought it was a special bed for them.  😂😂


I like radiators on snow days.
The radiators dry our wet clothes, boots, towels, etc.
Radiators really come in handy in weather like this!

I love my neighborhood.  Everyone was out Monday and dug out as a community.  They wouldn't let Brad and I do anything because we are the seniors and I think they were afraid we would get hurt.  I do pay my neighbor to dig us out (he has good snow toys) but it was heartening to see everyone helping each other.

I love my beauty berry bush.

The berries bloom in the fall and stay on as a good food source for birds and squirrels.  This is especially important with the amount of snow we have right now.  The seed heads in the garden are covered but the bush is high enough to provide food.


Our prompt this week is about puzzles but to be honest, we don't really do them.  I used to buy puzzles for the kids on New Year's Eve.  

Have a safe and happy day!

I Like Thursdays: January 22, 2026

 



Greetings and welcome to another edition of "I like Thursdays"!
Sponsored by LeeAnna at Not afraid of Color, be sure to visit her blog and the other positive posts!

I like that I'm in a better mood this week.  

I like the snow!
We got about 7 inches over the weekend!  
Possibly more this weekend!

I'm missing my great-niece Remi.  They couldn't come up for the holidays and she just brightens everything when she is here.  Recently I saw something I would love to buy for her!  I might have to get one of these if she comes up this summer (and then send it home with her).


What 3 or 4 year old wouldn't love these?
My favorite is the tea pot!


My internet is sporatic these days (Verizon is coming today to repair) so I'll just end on LeeAnna's prompt for this week focused on calendars.  Our main calendar is on the refridgerator and that way everyone can check what is going on that day.  I also have a desk calendar but the family one is the most important.

Wishing you a safe and happy weekend!  Stay warm!

I Like Thursdays: January 8, 2026

 


Today is "I like Thursdays" and time to share positive things on the internet!  Join other bloggers by checking out LeeAnna' site Not Afraid of Color!  She has a whole list of positive blogs!

I like the temperatures this week.  We've gone from winter cold and wind to temperatures in the 40s and 50s (F).  The ice is melting and I'm so grateful!

I like the presents my husband gave me:

  

And this pretty mug:

Everyone seemed to like their presents this year and that is always a relief.  

I like that this little guy was groomed on Sunday.  We missed his regular appointment because of bad weather and he was getting stinky  😬

Here he is in the groomer's hammock.  He looks cute and doesn't mind it.


Our prompt this week is:

"Do you ever sing in the shower? ( do you have a go to song you sing a lot?"

I don't sing in the shower.  I do sing to my dog:  in the sewing room, on our walks, and when I'm cleaning.  All my dogs have liked singing and I've made up a variety of songs for them.  I sing whatever feels right at the moment.

Have a safe and pleasant weekend!
