The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.
Psalm 28:7 NIV
Greetings Sweet Friends,
Hope you have had a good week.
Been a good one here. Have been
on the phone most of the day, so it
was not a productive day in the way
you would think, but it has been very
productive emotionally and relationally.
My kind of day......lol
Pictures today are of Sunflowers thanks
to Pixabay. They are a nice Summer to
Fall transitional flower.
Hope you enjoy them!
Now on with my Thankfuls....
#1
Thankful for our new mattresses. We just got them, last Thursday so have only had 7 nights
to sleep on it, but it has been very good.....
Sleeping like a log.........lol
I have been have a lot of sciatic pain lately, so
after 8 yrs. we decided maybe it was the mattress cause it started happening after we turned our
mattresses end to end the last time. So sure
hoping this fixes the problem....it is mostly
at night thank goodness, but will be nice to
not have it, so will see.......
Sciatica is a lil better, so I am hopeful,
maybe it just takes some time. No
back aches either.........so that's good too!
#2
Thankful our new mattresses came with
very nice mattress pads and sheet sets, and
pillows. I remember when we first got our adjustable bed over 8 years ago, we had to still
go out and buy all of that, and since the mattresses were X Long, it took us some time
to find the XL things.
#3
Thankful for Broccoli cheese Quiche and Chocolate Pudding.. I hadn't made either is a long time, and this week I did and they were both delicious and will be showing up on our menus again very often. I remembered that pudding
use to be a staple at our house as kids.
#4
Thankful for a nice evening out doing nothing
exciting really, but went grocery shopping,
ran to Michaels to get some Fall scrapbooking
paper, and looked around awhile then went
for a late dinner. Was just fun to get out
of the house for awhile.
#5
Thankful I was able to find "The Magicians
Nephew" by CS Lewis online. Part of the
Narnia Chronicles. Lil darling is reading
it for Literature, so it is helpful to use as
a book for me too, as we do her school work.
I can just read it or print it out if I want,
as it is in PDF form.
#6
Thankful that when the spring on our garage
door broke and we couldn't get our car out,
that I was able to go on facebook and ask
friends if they had any recommendations for
a garage door place to fix it, and I got a
response very quickly from a sweet friend
at church, followed by another long time
friend and our Daughter, who had used the
place the first one mentioned. We called
them and they are coming out today (Sat.)
around 4 pm.
Note: They came and we are up and
running once again! PTL
#7
Thankful that we had gone to the grocery
store the night before and had everything
we needed for dinner and more.
#8
Thankful the fellow from the garage door
Co. came today, even called and asked if
he could come earlier which we were of
course, totally on board with. Very nice
young man, and we have a working garage
door again. He replaced both springs so
we should be good for a long time hopefully,
as the other springs lasted 23 years.
So praise the Lord, because
we thought originally it might not happen
until next week sometime.
If you live in the Orlando, Florida area,
we used Precision Garage Door Repair,
and they even come out on weekends, and
it is not suppose to cost any more than
normal, much to our surprise and delight.
Thankful always for God's provisions
financially. As we have had a pretty
expensive couple of months.
#10
Thankful for leftover shrimp with which
I made Shrimp salad. It was delicious and
we haven't had than in awhile either.
I will share recipe soon.
#11
Thankful for a great sermon on "Heaven"
by a new to us Pastor, who was previously
a missionary in Africa for years. His wife
grew up in our church, so we are quite
familiar with he and his family. So nice
they can be back in the states as their
parents are getting older and in need of
help and some of their children are now
college age and going to school her in
the United States.
#12
Thankful for several longggg phone conversations with my Daughter this week. We hadn't talked to each other in about 12 days since she had her hubbies whole family with them. They had a
great time, and we had a great time talking
about the good time they had, and catching
up on life with each other.
That's it for Cozy Place this week.
Glad you could stop in
and
Hope you have a Fabulous rest of the week.
Love, Hugs and
Early September Blessings,
Nellie
