I Like Thursday #124

 I was prepared for today, honest.  I had even had photos.  My troubles started with doing a factory reset on a tablet.  I then downloaded my e-mail, and sent myself a file I wanted on the tablet.  Lets just say that it took me 5 hours to figure it all out.  

Anyway welcome to my 124th I like Thursday post.  Come and enjoy some positive things that a group of awesome bloggers share weekly, thanks to LeeAnna at Not Afraid of Color for encouraging us to find things to like and love during the week and share to throw some positive out into the universe.

I like the new heat grate I bought for the kitchen.  The old one with the adjustable louvers was just plain ugly.  I don't shut the heat off or the air off in the kitchen ever, so that function was pretty much useless.

I had accidentally dropped something on the heat register and so pulled it up to clean it.  I decided it was too far gone.  

I ordered this one and it arrived in just a couple of days.  I love it!  I think the bathroom may be my next replacement.  

I struggle to keep my storm door on the back porch closed.  It doesn't seem to want to stay latched.  The bad thing is Bobbin escapes sometimes and it is not safe for her.  I replaced he strike plate.  

The only difference between the old strike plate and the new strike plate is that it is about a 1/4 inch bigger.  But it helps a bit.  Bobbin cannot escape as easily at least.  

Fall is bearing down on us.  Lots of fun fall stuff at the store.  

Pumpkins.

Aren't these fun?  I can't choose a favorite.  

How about this cute little coin purse which is a chihuahua?  

Such a cute little face.  

Or how about some fun or inspirational signs?

I love that one.  The power of positive thinking.

For those of us that are hard core coffee drinkers. 

Being strong.  There are days lately,  I know I am strong, but I know I am tired too.  

I had a good week of reads.  

My first pick is Survival of the Fritters by Ginger Bolton.

Perhaps it is because I can relate to Emily.  Being a widow, the donuts.  It was a great read, and the culprit that killed one of the Knit Pickers a regular at Deputy Donuts was a real surprise.  Did you know that there is a genre of literature for widows?  

The 2nd pick of the week is The Boy from the Woods by Harlan Coben. 

There is so much going on with this book I can't even begin to describe it.  I will say I couldn't put it down.  Well worth the read. 

Now head over to LeeAnna's at Not Afraid of Color to check out the other I Like Thursday posts.
