Thankful Thursday September 24, 2026, and our Fall Dining Room and guest bath

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him."

Romans 15:13 NIV

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.

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.

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.

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

we saw last year that we really liked.

It is called " Crossroads Springs" and

we found it on Pureflix.

Thankful for a nice evening with our Son

and lil darling having conversation, dinner

and watching and laughing at dry bar comedy.

Thankful lil darling had a good time skating

with a friend from school, as the skating

ring is very close to their new home.

Thankful for a devotional email with the

purpose of keeping us from worrying over

all the world issues. Just signed up, and

can't wait to get the first one. We love

this Pastor he is from Tennessee and we

watch him every Sunday evening.

In case you would like to sign up for it.

in for yourself.

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

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.

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.

yourself.

The girl who posted it said we need to

see more of this, and I could not agree

more.......although I might have chosen

a few different words. lol

So thanks for coming by Beautiful...........

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

Thankful Thursday September 17, 2026, and Fall decorating in the family room

A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.

Proverbs 25:11 NKJV

Greetings Sweet Friends,

Hope your week has been a good one.

Been a good one here, just a little busier than usual, with Fall decorating, menu making, and hubby having 2 Dr. visits along with grocery shopping, but all were

good things!! Can you believe we

are in mid September already??

Crazy!! It will officially be

Fall next week...........weeee!!

Pictures today are of our Family room, all dressed up for Fall......

Now on with my Thankfuls............

Thankful to get or family room all done up for Fall. Always love the change of Season, hot outside but

Fall inside...........lol

Still working on the dining and

living room. Hopefully will get

it wrapped up soon.

Thankful for our wonderful Christian radio station Z-88, always so uplifting, and the Lord brings the songs to mind during the night when the enemy tries to bring me worrisome or scary thoughts.

Thankful for the whole armor of God we have been putting it on nightly for months now, and I recently realized those songs coming in the night were Gods promise to us about putting on the full armor of God, cause they

totally distract me from the thoughts and I can sing every word in my mind, and the next day I can't even remember the tune or the words,

unless I hear them on Z-88! lol

Thankful they came back and did the stucco on our Son's house

and they did a great job. Course, it will look much better once

they get the shutters back on and

get it painted, that might be

a while yet. He already put

new blinds up and they look great.

Lil darling painted this Sunflower and pumpkin picture a few years back. She and her Dad did a painting class. Maybe I am prejudiced a wee bit, but think it looks as good as Van Gogh's Sunflower picture.

Thankful for the mid-term convention. Think it was a new

but great idea, and reminder, for

folks to get out and vote. Our votes

really do matter.....

Thankful to talk with my friend who

had the esophageal issue some months

back, and then took a fall and broke

her ribs after she was home from the

hospital. Her ribs seem to be healing

well, as is the rest of her body. PTL

Just need a few logs now. lol

Thankful I was able to find an old recipe from a friend (the friend in #6 of my thankfuls) for Beef Enchiladas that are easy to make. Had them for din din tonight, and they were as good as I remembered.

Thankful that my Daughter and I

are both feeling better, think we

sort of caught a lil bit of what

lil darling had last week.

Thankful for Elderberry gummies, that boost your immune system, they also have Vit. A,C D,E and zinc.

They really help me fight off things or makes them pass sooner.

#10

Thankful for a sweet blogger

friend who is Hispanic and leaves kind comments from time to time, and Thankful for google translators so I can understand and respond back to her as well.

Love that!

#11

Thankful for our first visit to our Son's house to just visit, and see what he's been up to.... the house is looking homier all the time. He keeps a tidy home as well, and he is still unpacking, along with his normal work. Thankful too, we are all out from under the time pressure for getting things

done, now that he has moved in,

we can all relax a bit.

#12

Thankful to wake up to one of the sweetest, caring and most precious texts from a younger friend, that included a lovely pray for my hubby as he is going for an echocardiogram today for something they have been watching for awhile. .So we are believing for a good outcome.

Test all done, just waiting on

results now. Hopefully within

the week.
