Greetings and welcome to another edition of "I like Thursdays" hosted by LeeAnna of Not Afraid of Color! Visit her blog to find more positive posts by bloggers!
I like the Phillies. I loved watching last night as Christopher Sanchez as he completed 50 2/3 consecutive SCORELESS innings! Last night was such a special night and I am glad I was home to see the whole game! Do you have a favorite team?
Lucky has gutted his second Lambchop. These are 24 inch long toys but they are his favorite. He's enjoying pulling the fuzz out every evening and I let him because it means I can watch the game in peace. This is his second Lambchop he gutted but it's also his favorite toy and often his sleeping companion.
I just ordered two more. One for play now and one for later (they are on sale at Amazon right now).
I like that I finished enough weeding of the front yard that it can be mulched now. Andy will do it next week once his school teaching is finished. Hopefully we get rain before then!
I like Finches and we have a lot visiting right now because the catmint has seeded and the finches love it. And just as I wrote that a finch appeared outside my window!!
Today's prompt is what is our favorite insect and why?
I love ladybugs and fireflies. Both are beneficial in the garden but also harken back to favorite times at my grandmother's.
Kathy (my sister-aunt) decorated her room with ladybug motifs for years. The decor wasn't like now (ladybug wallpaper, quilts, etc.). She just had ladybug accessories scattered around her room.
Memorial Day weekend I spotted the first firefly in the garden. The fireflies love my gardens and it makes me happy that they visit so often. As kids we sometimes caught them but my Grandfather always made us free them after we watched them. Maybe he knew they were good bugs in the garden? I don't really know.
Well I have to walk Lucky and get on with the day. I need to do some gardening before I head to the hand doctor.
Have a safe and happy weekend!
