Thankful Thursday October 1, 2026, and Fall in the Living room #1

 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” – Ecclesiastes 3:1

Happy October Sweet Friends,

Man, can not believe we are in October already, 

 Seems like September was just a whirl wind.

Hope this finds you all enjoying your Fall season 

where ever you live. We are back to warmer 

temps, but still cooler than what they were. So

we are happy about that.  

Pictures today are of our Fall Living room.

So on with my Thankfuls.....

#1

Thankful for this wonderful song I saw on facebook, 

it was sung on the America's got talent, and this 

guy does a magnificent job singing it. Am wondering 

if he wrote it.  Click here to hear it. If you don't listen

 to it you will really miss a blessing!

You can also type it, or copy and paste it yourself.

Thankful that they had done a lot of work

on our Daughter and Son in Loves house

while they were gone.  Which is great!!

Awaiting inspection next week.

#3

Thankful for the beauty of the sun rays

coming across our backyard and woods

as the sun comes up. Almost breathtaking.

#4

Thankful for early morning hunger that

occasionally gets me out of bed for a bowl

 of cereal, while I browse a Southern Living

 magazine, and it's early enough that I can

still go back to bed. lol

#5

Thankful that hubby and I had a talk

yesterday and we both felt we need to

find some things to do that we used to

do, but due to circumstances of this last

year we have just got out of the habit of

and we need to get out of our rut. lol

#6

Thankful for a lovely Sunday. We made

it a point to get out of our rut today.

So After church.....

We got take out from Olive Garden, and ate

in the dining room rather than kitchen, an

it was delicious. then because it was cool 

outside in the shade, we sat out in the back

 yard for about 2 hrs., and it was so lovely

peaceful and quiet and just so nice to be out 

there, cause we have been captives of the heat 

all Summer. We got to see about 5 baby birds

 flitting about for while, an going to our bird 

bath, until I decided to put some clean water 

in the bird bath, then they stopped....Dang!!

We also read some in a book hubby is reading 

given to him by our Pastor about church

 leadership which is quite good.

Then we came in and had some pecan pie

that was yummy and we were both gonna

take a nap, but something I ordered for

lil darling came and it was not the right

item, so had to try an figure that out which

 took way longer than I expected cause they 

would not let me order the right one. It

did finally let me, but it took a lot of going

back and forth and checking Amazon to

see if they had it yada yada. So no nap

 for me today......

but it was a very good day.

#7

Thankful that Wally World let me reorder

the item finally.........now we have to send

back the other one, which isn't even close

to looking like the right one.  So thankful

that Walmart and Amazon make it easy to

return things..........

Note: Thankful the new one came and it

was the right one this time, and looks

nice in her bathroom.

#8

Thankful that we have gotten to live in our

neighborhood for 45+years, It has truly

been a wonderful place to live and we have

very nice neighbors as well.

#9

Thankful for 2 nice long conversations with

our girl this week, as I have been missing her

lately, as they were away and then they had

some friends come to town.

She always brightens my day.

#10

Thankful that hubby and I have been sticking

to our rut busting activities, at least with one

or two each day.  Which is making life

a lil more fun............lol

#11

Thankful my hubby got to spend some time

 with a young man, we have known for years,

 who recently lost his Dad.  Much needed.

#12

Thankful we got to see our Son and lil

darling today, got to see the new things

they have gotten done in their new home,

as they are still getting settled in.

 We all had dinner together as well.

Great time!

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

So nice you could come by today

and

Hope you have a truly Blessed week ahead,

Love, Hugs and 

First of October Blessings,

Fall Greetings Sweet Friends,

Hope you are enjoying some Fall weather by now, we

 are gonna have some this weekend, course, it is only

 temporary but that's okay we will take it....it is the

 promise of Fall for us, which will probably come later

 in October if it is like normal. Course don't

 remember us getting a cold snap this soon, so maybe it

 will be earlier this year!!  That would be great.......

At any rate, hope you are enjoying some Fall weather

 and Fall activities that you and yours can enjoy,

Pictures to day are of our and Fall Dining room,

and Guest bath.

#1

Thankful for Beauty Berries. I have been out

picking them this morning cause I love to 

decorate my guest bath with them in the

Fall, and it looks so pretty.  They are the

most gorgeous shade of purple I have 

ever seen............

Can you tell I really like Beauty Berries lol

They do dry out after awhile and then

I just replace them with more.

#2

Thankful we got to see lil darling today.  

She helped me finish up the Fall decorating

in the living room. That child is growing

like a weed, can not believe how tall she

is getting.

#3

Thankful I am just about all done with

my decorating, but then realized I still

need to do a few things in the kitchen.

Note:  I am offically all done as of

Saturday.  Quite happy about that.  lol

Thankful for a new Season of a series

It is called " Crossroads Springs" and

we found it on Pureflix.

Thankful lil darling had a good time skating

Thankful that today it is officially Fall and 

the best part is our temps here in Florida

are starting to cool off some. This coming

weekend we are gonna be in the low to mid

60's, course, it only lasts until around

11o'clock but hey, we will take it.  lol

#9

Thankful I made a Chicken Dish this week

that I haven't made for awhile, called 

"Country French Chicken", and we really

enjoyed it.  

If you would like the recipe click here

I actually came up with the recipe because I used to buy

 a jar of sauce called "Chicken tonight", and we all

 loved it.  Just had to throw in some chicken breasts

 and pour the sauce over them and cook an hour, and I

 would serve it with some yellow rice, and a vegetable

 and it was easy and delicious. So could never find it

 anywhere any more, so decided to try and make my

 own, and we love it just the same.

#10

Thankful for a show that has been on TV

for years now. Called "Better Together"

I used to watch it all the time, but when

they went to an hour, I got out of the

habit of watching it, but have found out

I can watch it on utube anytime I want,

so just started back and it was such a

blessing, and I realized just how much

I have missed it........So glad to be back

watching it again. 

#11

Thankful our Daughter and Son-in-love

had a lil getaway this passed week, just

to have a break from all the construction

that is going on. 

#12

Thankful for this wonderful reel I saw on

facebook,  it made me laugh and made 

me cry, it is so sweet.....love it.

IT'S FALL...........

SO HAVE A BALL.....YALL!!!

Monday Manna

Morning  Sweet Friends,

Haven't done a Monday Manna

post in awhile, mainly because

of time restraints, but had these

thoughts come this morning, so

thought it would be a good Monday Manna post and reminder for me

as well as others.

Is anyone else feeling like you

 can't trust anything anymore?? 

 What they are putting in our food or not putting in our food that they say they are?? Course, that is just one thing, among what seems like a jillion other things, but Hubby and I were talking about the food thing just the other day, and it occurred to me that why do you think the Lord tells you to pray about everything???

 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 niv

Cause He already knows about all this and so many other irrational crazy things that are

 going on these days.

So my encouragement to myself

 and to all of you who are reading...

Is start praying about everything, 

 just like he says. If you haven't

been, then start..., it takes practice

but if you realize the seriousness

of it all, it is crucial to just get started.....

Make a goal for yourself,

start with praying about  2 or 3

 things a day and then keep adding

 to the list, as it will become

a good habit...........it might even

help to intentionally write them.

Then we can relax, and have the 

Peace he promises cause we know

 HE has got this all too.  

You do not have because you do not ask God.  When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.

James 4:2-3 niv

I pray about a lot of things,

 but I think as we navigate

 this life, I think he is truly

trying to teach all of us to pray without ceasing, and just like

giving thanks I think it is more 

for our benefit than we can ever imagine, and it is no longer an option -

 it is a very necessary survival skill in our world today!!

 Rejoice always, pray without ceasing,  give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 niv

It is my hope that this will help

someone today to be less stressed

and more peaceful. It sure helps

to keep me out of the ditch....

Love and Blessings,

Nellie
