Happy Happy Thanksgiving 

Sweet Friends,

Hope this will be a day full of blessings and Thankfulness for you and yours!

We are sure looking forward to the day

 with our loved ones, and I am sure

you probably are too!!

Pictures today are just some fun

and whimsical fall pictures compliments

very soon!!  lol

So on with my Thankfuls....................

#1

Thankful that I can go to the Chiropractor's office,

and Thankful for her and her lovely office staff.

Also thankful for the decompression table, which is

uncomfortable, because I feel like I can hardly breathe,

because they have to strap you in real tight, but it does

not hurt, it's just uncomfortable, and make me sore 

afterwards, but it is part of  what is helping me to heal, along with her treatments as well.

I really felt I needed to be thankful for all of this

because I have been a complaining about it a little,

and  I thought how quickly you forget what all that

has done for you.  lol

#2

Thankful to get to go to the grocery store and out 

for a late lunch/early dinner at Olive Garden and

thankful we remembered we had a gift card we

had been given by friends. So that was an added

bonus, and we also had leftover for another meal. lol

#3

Thankful hubby got the Christmas tree up today.

It's not decorated yet, but does have the lights

which looks so nice.

#4

Thankful that tho I dropped my favorite mug it 

didn't break!!  Yay, it was a mug from my daughter

 but included everyones name even the furry ones

 in the family saying they love me. 

 So happy to still have it.......

#5

Thankful to get to go to church again today.

It was a good message about loving our

enemies.  Also nice to see everyone and to

get to talk to some.

#6

Thankful that I have been able to refer

3 people to my new chiropractor. I think

they will love her as much as I do.

#7

Thankful that today was a week since I

have been on the stretching machine at

the Chiro's office, and I felt so much

better because most of the soreness has

worn off from doing that decompression,.

  So she adjusted me but decided I could 

pass on the decompression machine and

will see if I need it next week, cause

that will be 2 weeks, so praying we

are coming down to the home stretch.

Will see................

#8

Thankful that we did some grocery

shopping at Aldi, and when we came

out we had an opportunity to help

two people, which is always a blessing.

#9

Thankful we got some frozen yogurt

to celebrate how good I was feeling.

Praying it stays that way all week.

Note:  So far so good!!

#10

Thankful that I got our Thanksgiving

cards sent on their way.

#11

Thankful I am almost done decorating

our Thanksgiving table, then tomorrow

will be making food.

Finished!!  lol

#12

Thankful that everything that hubby and

I could do food wise today is done, and

 I am about to pack it in for the night, 

as I am a tired camper!!  lol

Well, that's it for Cozy Place this week.

This is the 7th Edition of the pinched nerve trials.

Glad you could come by 

and

Hope you are having a Wonderful Thanksgiving

with your family/friends or furry friends.

Love, Hugs and

Thanksgiving Blessings,

Thankful Thursday November 20, 2025, and Fall Florals

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:6-7 NV

Greetings Sweet Friends,

Wow, only a week until Thanksgiving,

can you believe it.....

Hope you are doing well and getting

ready for next week.  Always a lovely

time with family.

I am coming along still, not quite there

yet, but doing oh so much better!!

These things take time, and pacing of

strength and energy!  Doing my best

to trust the Lord that we will be ready

especially for Christmas, cause our girl

and boy from South Carolina and our

furry grandson Dog will be here!!

He has never let us down before!!

Thankful we got to pick lil darling up from school and

spend some time with her,  and she will be here again

tomorrow to do her school work with us.

Thankful I was able to drive today with

 no problems.

Thankful our Daughter and Son-in-love went up to  their lake house for a long weekend. I Have seen on facebook pics from up there where people have seen the Northern lights.  So hoping that get to see them.

#4

Thankful for another trip to the Chiro Dr.

and lil darling went with us, then we took her

home to her Dad, since she had volley call

practice.  Always fun to have her with us,

and thankful to one step closer to being

done with the pinched nerve issue.

#5

Thankful that afterwards, we went to TJ Maxx

 and looked around, it was so full of goodies

and people. Stayed a few hours till I just got

 so tired and sore all of a sudden, so had to

 leave. We were hoping to go out to dinner,

 but just wasn't up to it.

#6

Thankful that we decided to just order

soup and salad from Olive Garden. It

 made for the perfect Friday night, so

Jumped in my jammies, ate on TV trays

and watched a good Christmas movie

Called "Christmas Time Capsule" on

"Up Faith and Family"

#7

Thankful for a lovely surprise visit on Saturday

 from some long time Vietnamese friends who are

 about 20 yrs. younger than us. He used to work with

 my hubby when he was single and spent quite a few

 holidays with our family. Then the Co. he and hubby

 worked at closed and he got married to a

 really lovely girl and then they moved about an hour 

or more away, so we have kept touch via phone,

text and email and have seen them a few

 times, and can't believe they are now empty nesters.

 So it was such a delight to see them as they are just

 the sweetest kids, and wow, do they have a God

story.  We are just so proud of them.....

It was truly a blessed afternoon.

#8

Thankful to be back in church today as it has been about 6 weeks. It really was so good to be there in person, as we have been watching online since this pinched nerve situation. I am a bit sore, so about to relax and use my heating pad!!  lol

It was so good to see everyone!!

#9

Thankful we got some take out from Tijuana flats, 

 it was really yummy, as we haven't had anything

 from there in a long time. Quite Satisfying!!

#10

Thankful for a couple of more Christmas movies 

we watched.  They were both so good. One

was called " 

#11

Thankful we got to have lil darling for schooling

today, and to spend some time with.  She is such

a gift and always a bright spot in our day.

#12

Thankful we got our family room furniture

moved around yesterday, so we can put our

faux tree up, so we will be ready for Christmas

decorating on Friday after Thanksgiving.

Gives us a lil jump on things!

That's it for Cozy Place this week.

This is the 6th Edition of the Pinched nerve series.

Thanks for spending some time with us,

Have a Bright and Beautiful Weekend

Don't know about you,

Have a Sunday the Lord would love!!

Thankful Thursday November 13, 2025, and Fall desserts

Serve the Lord with gladness; Come before His presence with singing. Know that the Lord, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

Psalm 100:2-3 NIV

Greetings Sweet Friends,

Hope this finds you well and happy

and enjoying some cooler weather.

I am feeling so much better and

more like myself again. I still have

another month of Chiropractic care

twice a week, but making ground

every day,  Praise the Lord.

On with my Thankfuls.....

#1

Thankful for our Sweet and Smart Son

and what a wonderful Dad he is to 

lil darling..........

and Thankful we got to celebrate his

birthday with him and lil darling.  It

was a lil different this year because I

couldn't make his birthday dinner or

go out, but we just got take out and made

it a bit easier,  but think he enjoyed it

just the same......and it was a special

blessing to all of us, as we hadn't seen

each other in a month, which seemed

like a year to me!!  lol

#2

Thankful that I am doing so much better,

Have been up more and able to do some of

 my normal routine things again, but still

 have to be careful not to set that nerve off

 again. Dr. says to be careful of twisting

 and bending.

#3

Thankful to be sleeping in our bed most

of the time this week.  A real treat!! lol

#4

Thankful that Friday was our

55th Anniversary.  

We of course, didn't plan anything

cause I am not wanting to sit on any

thing hard till I can find a cushion

to take with me,  plus they were bringing

us dinner from the meal train as well.

So I was teasing that my Chiropractor 

visit was my Anniversary Gift,  lol

Hubby did get me more beautiful orange

roses and a lovely card. Love them, and

we did watch a 56 yr. old movie, that

we saw on our first blind date together.

"Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid."

and our song, from that movie became

 "Raindrops keep falling on my head"

 from B.J. Thomas

#5 

Thankful that after my chiro appt.

yesterday we had to look for big bandaids

for hubbies back where he had the cyst

removed, so we went to Target. Cannot

tell you how much fun that was after

not going in a store of over a month, 

and it's been way longer than that for

going to Target.  They were playing

Christmas music and had a lot of 

Christmas things out and we didn't 

even got thru the whole store cause

we had to be home by 4, and we ran

into our lunch buddy friends so were

talking with them for awhile and I

was getting sore, so we had to go,

but the was just such a bright spot

in our Day!

#6

Thankful and Amazing to me

 how something as small and short

 as that was, but what it did for

 my spirit, and can't even say

 my spirit was low cause they

really weren't, but it just spoke fun

to my spirit anyway!!

Can't wait to go back again!!  lol

#7

Thankful that our daughter sent us

an Anniversary card, from our shop,

via phone........and it was a card I 

made, but it was as tho someone else

made it, that was just so surreal to

me, and so sweet, and they also sent

 us a restaurant gift card as well.

Also our Pastor must have heard

and he sent us a text to let us know

he was praying for us and wished us

happy Anniversary,.  Love how the

Lord uses seemingly small things to

bless our hearts........and how He 

really does work in mysterious ways.

#8

Thankful for a nice long chat with

my Daughter.

#9

Thankful for a sweet video from lil darling

this morning telling me about an answer

she wrote about the Chronicles of Narnia.

  That was a first of many I hope.

It was funny cause I was just about to

try and call her because I had a funny

dream about her and her lil dog Lola

that I wanted to share with her.

#10

Thankful that the Dr. said I can pretty

much do my normal routine things now,

just I need to be careful twisting or bending.

Think I will still need theraphy for 2X a week 

for another month, then they will re-evaluate

me. Starting to do a lil bit of stretching

 exercises and more walking as well.

Getting there,  slow but sure!!  lol

#11

Thankful to be able to make my first

batch of Beef Stew for the season.

Smelling yummy,  can hardly wait

to have some. We are 48 degrees

right now,  and loving it.

Note: Have to say the Beef Stew was

so so good, and I wound up making

 some Chili last night for today, I only 

make both dishes most of the time in

 Fall/Winter. Which keeps them special

 and fun to look forward to.......

#12

Thankful that my devotional took me

to John chapter 14 this morning, and

I love it was the words of Jesus, so I

read thru chapter 17.  Love reading

His words (in red letters in my bible)

It is just so encouraging and reassuring.

Well, that's it for Cozy Place this week.

This is the 5th post in the Pinched Nerve

Edition.

Glad you could stop by today!

Have a Brrr weekend 

Love, Hugs, and

Mid November Blessings
