It was you who set all the boundaries of the earth; you made both summer and winter.
Good Morning Sweet Friends,
Hope this finds you having a great time
with your children or grandchildren
while they are out of school, and if
you have them. Been missing our girl
cause she has been traveling a lot since
she got out of school, but hopefully we
will get to see her this weekend. It
has been a good week in most ways.
Been praying a lot for 2 of my long
time friends. Such a relief that one is
finally out of the woods, but the other
is still on going, and not getting we
are not getting too much info on her,
because I am sure they are both so
exhausted. She is supposed to be having
another procedure that she just had
a week ago, so praying it goes well
again.
Pictures today are compliments
of Pixabay. They are fun whimsical
Summer pictures that I think are
so cute and fun.
On with my Thankfuls......
#1
Thankful for our wild brown bunnies that we
get to enjoy. We found out some months ago
there are two of them, as they were both out
on the same day. So we were shocked there
were 2, and we have only seen them both out
at the same time about 3 times. They look just
alike and we can not tell them apart.
Sometimes they are quite entertaining when
they are in a pensive or feisty mood, as
they will run all over the backyard and
sometimes jump straight up in the
air, and are quite animated, so we get a
kick out of watching them. Just gotta love
Gods creatures

Thankful that our long time friend I told
you about maybe close to 2 months ago,
that had problems when they were on
vacation and has been in the hospital in
Tennessee all this time. She finally left
for home yesterday, with tubes still in
her, but her esophagus is healed and she
is now able to take liquids and soft foods.
I tell you she has really been through it
and just wants to be home, and is still
pretty weak. They live in Gainesville
Florida, so it is quite a drive from
Knoxville, Tenn., so they went to her
son's town to spend the night, and
will continue on the next 2 days doing
a stop over and will hopefully get home on
Sunday. Getting her home is no easy feat
either, and I am sure took a lot of courage.
Note: Praise the Lord they made it
home Sat. evening. She's not feeling
great tho, which we really didn't
expect. She has 3 Dr. appts. one
this week and she is quite tired and
weak as you could only imagine
after the ordeal she has been thru,
as well as her hubby.

Thankful we have been in communication with the young lady we met last week in Home Goods a # of times.
#4
Thankful a lot more got done on Susan's house this week, almost to the next steps, which will be stripping wall paper and painting or taking the rest of the flooring out. It's been a lot of work, and still more ahead, but actually happening quicker than we could have imagined. Our Son is a very hard worker,and off and one everyone in the family has been able to help some too. Which is great.
Thankful our Daughter and Son-in-love had a fun week with his Sister and her family at their beach house.
#6
Thankful we got some work done in our
shop today. Added Father's Day cards.
So check us out if you are in need of
some Fathers day cards. You can
print them, or send them by email
or phone............and best of all they
are FREE, Yes, you heard me right!!
#7
Thankful for a new Instagram site
with great looking recipes and
gorgeous photos. It is called
"Mediterranean Cravings"
I already did one of them using a
4 cheese pizza rather than flat
bread, it was very good. So
can't wait to try another one.
#8
Thankful that hubby thought of
an old recipe for a jello salad
that is so easy, and delicious, but
we don't make it unless it is for
a crowd He used to take it to
work when they had celebrations,
and their was rarely anything left,
it was such a crowd pleaser.
It's the recipe I decided to share on
Tuesday for this week. Just scroll
down past this post and you will
see it.
P.S. I just realized after I posted
the recipe that I actually could freeze
half of it, if I wanted to.
Cool whip comes frozen, Duh....lol
It truly amazes me how some things
completely escape your thinking and
then one day it's like the light bulb
comes on............lol
This was from Me............lol
#9
Thankful that we got a lil bit more
work done at Susans house today,
and Scott got a lot more done over
the weekend.
#10
Thankful that if it is cost effective
enough we might get someone to
clean for us, so we an go help our
Son get Susan's house in order, it
is coming along well, but painting
will be next and some wall paper
stripping as well before he can get
the new floors in. We can only do
certain things, but we have been
able to help more that I thought
we would, but can't keep us going
here at home, at the same time, as
we have to have breaks as well.
Plus it might help us catch up on
so many things that got swept aside
given our last 8 months of trials.
#11
Thankful we got our porch tidied up
a bit this morning. It's not perfect
but sure looks better. I would love
to wash it all down but it is a lil like
spitting in the wind this time of year
because of lawn mowing and rain.
So will save that for Fall when we
actually use it more. It's way to
hot already unless you go out there
at 6-7 a.m., which has no appeal
to either of us at this point in our
lives.........lol
Thankful that I got what I thought
was a fun idea. I had copied pictures
for my window that I use for decorating.
They were all things that I feel scream
summer to me, and I was gonna put it
over our fireplace, but then decided it
might be easier to put it in our kitchen
and turn it into our "250th Anniversary
of America" kitchen, still working on
it but liking it a lot so far. It's fun
and whimsical for the Summer.
I think anyway!! and it's our house
and if we like it ....that works for me.

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