Note to Sandi over at Dandelion tea:
I have been to your blog numerous
times and tried to leave comments,
but it always says there is an error,
so tried to answer your comments
on my blog, but it does the same thing
So that is why you haven't heard
from me.
On with my Thankfuls.....
#1
Thankful for a lovely night out celebrating
our Anniversary and our Son's birthday
with he and lil darling.
#2
Thankful for the lil things I have been seeing since the election is over, that are vert interesting and delightful to me. Hubby went to Dunkin Donut the day after, and they gave him a free sandwich and a Senior discount, and he goes there about every 7-10 days, and that has never happened before, and then we went out to Longhorn steak house for our Anniversary/Birthday celebration and Somehow it came up in our conversation with our server while we were waiting on our Son and lil darling to come, that we were celebrating our Anniversary, and she asked how many years, and thought it was great we were married 54 years. then we said we are also celebrating our Sons birthday too. So once, they came She took great care of us and was such a sweet and pleasant girl and at the end of our dinner she asked us if we wanted dessert and we said No, because we were going home to eat Banana pudding, (both my guys fav dessert) and she left and in a few mins. came back with 2 beautiful ice cream desserts, and also gave us an Anniversary card and our Son a birthday card! Now, I have never seen that done before! and I said, Thank you for helping to make America be great again! and she smiled a big smile. I see so many people trying to do small things that add so much joy to others lives..............I just love that!!
And hope it will be on going, as it is wonderful to see others thinking about someone else besides themselves, all the time.

Thankful for another good school day with lil darling.

Thankful lil darling has memorized half of Philippians chapter 2, and I will wind up memorizing it all. Not an easy chapter to memorize, but great she has done it.

my hair more manageable.

they can match with real life so
many times, and many times help
to direct our path.

Thankful for our sweet neighbors who gave us some of her delicious vegetable soup. I was just thinking about it today, as she usually makes it in the Fall. Such a sweet and surprise gift.

only delicous but nutrious as well.
#10
Thankful the the GOP won the House

Greetings Sweet Friends,
How's You and Your's today??
Well, today is our 54th Anniversary....
We don't have big plans, but we do plan to go
out to dinner with our Son and lil darling,
to celebrate our Anniversary and His Birthday,
which was this week as well. We actually brought him
home from the hospital on our 7th Anniversary.
So he was our Anniversary Gift then and now!
We also have something fun coming up in a few
weeks, that we are looking forward to.....
Pictures today, since Thanksgiving is not far away,
are of a Thanksgiving Table from the past,
Here at Cozy Place. Figured by now some
of you are looking for ideas, like me! lol
If you'd like to see the original post click here.
So on with my Thankfuls.................
#1
Thankful today is our 54th Anniversary!
Hard to wrap our minds around that is has
been that long.........and it's been a good life,
with more ups than downs.
#2
Thankful that I happened to find a Fall Poem I
wrote some years back, but hadn't quite finished,
and had aFall picture that I wanted to make a card
out of, and this was the perfect compliment to it.
Thankful for our Comfy Cozy Bed. I have to
say I love our bed, and I love it even more now that
we got the new mattresses, which came with these
amazing sheets, that are so soft and luxurious feeling.
#4
Thankful I have been making some new cards
for our shop.
#5
Thankful that we think, at this point, we have
a problem solved that was very strange that came
up with our Card Shop website. We are
thinking they are spammers or hackers possibly.
Note: Now we know for sure we were hacked
because we kept on getting email from people about
someone trying to charge their credit card and bank
cards and wanting to know why, since they had never
even heard of our website or been to it.
We were notified by one of our payment plans
that we used to use, but had disengaged (when
we decided to go to Free cards), that we had
been hacked, so we had them close that account,
so hopefully things are officially solved now.
#6
Thankful to hear from most of our Pastors this
morning, that they really appreciated their Pastor
Appreciation cards, we sent them this week.
#7
Thankful for some great Mexican food for lunch
after church. This was our 4th time to go there,
and I got Fajitas this time and they were really so good.
#8
Thankful my Son and lil darling made it home
safe and sound from my Daughter and Son-in-loves
and that they all had a great time together as usual.
#9
Thankful lil darling spotted 2 red headed woodpeckers
in our woods this morning. Haven't seen any of them
around here in a few years. It was fun to watch
them for a bit. We were wondering if maybe
they were building a nest.
#10
Thankful that lil darling saw a giant locust on the
front of our house when she was looking out the
window. We had them some years back and
they were smaller and oh my goodness, we could
not believe how much they can eat.
So unfortunately he came to an early demise.
Definitely helped me understand more about
the bible story when Moses was taking the
Israelites out of Egypt and God sent a plaque
of locusts that devoured their crops! lol
Thankful for our friends Father. He is 102+ yrs. old.
He serviced in World War 2, and was a Pastor,
and just the most amazing Godly man. His vision and
hearing are quite impaired, but he gets around pretty well
in spite of it, and lives with his Daughter and her hubby.
He never complains and is just fun to be with as he
jokes a lot. Everyone should have a Grandfather like
him, He is such a joy! He is being honored this
week for his military service, and that has to be about
the 5th or more times now.
#12
Thankful that the Presidential election is finally over.
and that we had a fair election, and we found out
who our President was gonna be the night of the
election, rather than weeks later like in 2016.
(Which had never happened to our knowledge
before that time). and Thankful for God's Mercy
and Grace upon our Country....to give us a new
President that is gonna look out for America,
and her people.
That's it for Cozy Place this week.
Thanks for stopping by
Have a great rest of the week,
Love, Hugs and
First of November Blessings,
Nellie
