Welcome to Thankful Thursday - March 22, 2012

Declare his glory among the nations,

his marvelous deeds, among all peoples.

For great is the Lord and most worthy

of praise; he is to be feared above all gods.

Psalm 96:3-4

Hello Spring  Sweet Peas......

What cha' been up to??  Wow, haven't 

used that terminology since High School!! 

 At least I can still remember it.............lol

Been decorating for Spring??enjoying the 

weather?? or just maybe having a dose of 

Spring Fever??  Hope not on the last one!

I just came in from off our porch, been sitting out there
reading my bible and journaling and listening to the many
birds singing, the trees rustling and watching some Sand
Hill cranes flying over making there unusual sounds, and
a swarm of birds flying every which direction like they
were in a bug eating frenzy, never seen that up close
and personal before, so very interesting!
It was truly delightful I have to say and think it is
my first thankful for the day,  sitting on the back
porch it is a good thing as Martha would say!! lol

#2

I am thankful

for the wonderful time we all had at

Dee and Jerry's celebrating my honey's

birthday.  We left saying wee, wee,
wee all the way home!!  lol
You'll see why on my next thankful!!

#3

I am thankful

for the Wii system the kids gave to both

of us for our birthdays,  as it has some new

exercise routines we can do,  but is also a

fun thing for all of us to do when we get

together.  So far, we have bowled together,

and hubby and I have done a 20 and 30 minute

exercise routine on the wii from the biggest

 loser show.  It's a workout I tell you, but 

one we can do............

Last night hubby and I bowled a game,
and played baseball.  I always loved base-
ball when I was a kid,  and I love going
bowling but since my pinched nerve and
neck problem virtual bowling is the only
bowling for this girl............so that has
been a hoot I have to say!!

Oh I missedspelled it,  we said wii, wii, wii,
all the way home!!  lol
Hope your laughing that was suppose to
be funny!!  lol

#4

I am thankful 

that my Dr. told me about these breathing exercises

 I can do.  I do just a few deep breaths about every

 10 mins. over the waking day, and I am amazed, 

 my lower back pain has gone away within 2 hours

of starting it.  I am amazed!  and certainly

plan to continue.  I started doing this on Monday
and now it is Thursday and my back has been
great all week!  PTL

Will keep you posted as I see how it goes....

#5

I am thankful

for this new salad mix I found at Publix quite by

 accident this week.  I thought I was just buying brocoli

 slaw cause that is what it looked like and when I got it

home,  it came with the dressing,  and bacon, cranberries and 

sunflower seeds. You just mix it all togehter and it is really

delicious.  The dressing has a very faint taste of orange,  but

 it is really delightful.

Just in case you are interested I saved the bag so I

 could tell you about it.

It is made by Taylor Farms,  and comes in a 

cellophane bag over in the produce dept.of Publix. 

 It is called "Garden vegetable chopped salad". 

 and like I said it looks like Brocoli slaw.  Try it,

 I think you will really like it,  and it's so easy

 and so good!!

#6

I am thankful

for an early birthday ecard I got today from

a dear friend.  She is always so thoughtful,

and she has a March birthday as well.

Actually,  her's is before mine,  She is a

week early.............that's fine with me just

starts my celebrating early!!  lol

#7

I am thankful

that all my Winter stuff is down,  and I am

working on putting up Spring decor now.

Not getting anywhere fast I might add. lol

#8

I am thankful

for a nice pants outfit I found on Monday

evening and rather quickly too, and if you have been

to my blog much you know how I really do not like

 clothes shopping, stuff for my home yea, but not clothes

 shopping. Hubby must have been praying hard!!  lol

 I had gift cards leftover from Christmas that I saved for

 spring shopping, since I didn't feel I really needed anymore

 Winter things since it was so warm this year. The top is 

orange/red tunic style top. I hear orange is in this year, 

 so might just be fashionable for once,  not that I really

 care! I just want to look nice.........so was very happy

with my find,, course, it wound up being partially a

birthday present too cause the cashier had an issue

with one of the gift cards and didn't speak english

very well...................so ya know how that goes.

#9

I am thankful

that Dee and Jerry loved their steam mop,  and she

says their floors look great.  She has quite a bit of 

white tile, and a friend of mine had that same situation

and she had a steam mop and loved it,  so figured

it would be put to good use, for sure.

#10

I am thankful

that Dee and Jerry have offered to have my birthday

celebration at their house as well.  So really looking

forward to it,  and she is really enjoying being a 

hostess,  and we are so enjoying being hosted!! lol

So we are a good match!!

#11

I am thankful

for a lot of really neat things the Lord has been

showing me lately,  I would share some but they

are rather hard to articulate really.

#12

I am thankful

that a younger friend of mine who just went

thru a breakup is getting some counseling 

and help, as she just seems to keep picking

the wrong type of guys.  She has a major

break thru today,  so am so happy for her.

Well,  that's my thankfuls for the week,

 and I hope you have a few of your own 

to share with us.

Thanks for stopping by, love hearing
from you.................


Love, Hugs, and 
Beautiful Spring Bouquet
 Blessings to you,
Nellie
