I Like Thursday #67

Welcome to my 67th installment of I like Thursday.  LeeAnna at Not Afraid of Color encourages us to be positive and share the things we have found we like or love during the week. 

I don't know about you, but in my neck of the woods it has been wet!  When we string together a day or two of dry it is all hands on deck to work on pulling weeds, planting, and trying to get things done. I have plants sitting on my deck, and along my garage waiting to be planted.   Since I am outside more the little girls are being allowed out to free range.

They are so funny.  At first they ran between their house and the spruce tree, which is about 5 feet away.  They are now getting braver and wandering over the driveway.  The older chickens mingle with them and so far we do alright.  Except at night.  Trying to get them into the coop is a challenge.  I tried to explain to them nothing good happens after dark. 

I loved this bouquet I found at the grocery store with hydrangea and peony.

I like these succulent bowls I saw at the local nursery.

These are large bowls, and look at the size of the Hens & Chicks they were as big as my hand!

I loved the rosy looking one. 

I know I have mentioned that things magically appear at times.  I got a chuckle at the sticker that appeared on my garbage can the other day.

Hello Kitty with a gas mask?  I didn't think my can was that stinky.  It is that dirty.  When they were repaving the road they went by one day and were washing the road with this rotating brush.  It managed to cover my can with mud flecks.

I love this series by Jana De Leon, anything that makes me giggle and laugh out loud is good. This is book 12.    

Remember last fall when I was laughing about this stow away in my car.  I picked it up and flipped it out.  Thinking the wind caught it and carried it away.

Imagine my surprise when I opened the passenger side door to grab a poop bag for Bobbin, and what has been riding around with me for the past few months, but that leaf that I had ejected last fall.  I guess it was determined to keep me company. 

According to Miss Lucy she should get a chance to share also this week.

I am usually the one in the house that likes to relax, take it easy and just chill.  My likes are sleeping, eating, sleeping, eating, sleeping and watching that goofy Bobbin play with toys, and before you ask, yes I have been hit in the head a few times with a flying squirrel.  

But every now and then there are storms and then I am not very chill. The past week there have been a couple of days and nights with, in my honest feline opinion, way too many thunderstorms.  Now the human and dog are foolhardy, but not me.  I head to an inside room away from all windows like the emergency alerts say!

Through this magic door, my adopted mom calls it the laundry room. 

Straight back, you can see it isn't very wide, and there are no windows.  Yep adopted mom has her clothes in the laundry room since the main bathroom with the shower is on the main floor and the bedrooms are upstairs.  Ssshhh don't mention that she hasn't folded clothes in a couple of days.  See that tiny space though, between the washer and dryer?  I am actually now svelte enough I can stroll right back there to safety during the storms.  

I just wait the storms out back here where it is safe.  I try to tell adopted mom and goofy Bobbin to come join me, but they just roll their eyes at me.  My motto is safety first though!  

Ahem....thank you Lucy for the PSA (public service announcement).  Now head over to LeeAnna's and see the other I Like Thursday posts.
