Welcome to Thankful Thursday - September 20, 2012

No, this isn't my front door, altho it is this color of red,

 This is a public domain picture that I just thought was pretty!

  Greetings Sweet Peas,

So how has your week been??
Wonderful, I hope!

Mine has been very good, I was out more this
week which was fun. Went to lunch with Dee,
 and did some food shopping and looking around.
Today was bible study and went to Bealls look-
ing at clothes.  Tried on a cute looking hounds-
tooth print outfit, but felt like I looked like a
 houndstooth pumpkin in it!! lol
 Did buy my first Christmas present today,  I 
usually don't start until mid to end of October, 
but just happened on something, so decided
 to grab it while I saw it!! 

Was finished with my Fall decorating then 
decided I should change some things around 
in my foyer, since it looked more springish, 
and decided it would look funny to come in
from Fall stuff at the front door to a spring
foyer, which led to the living room as well,
 still working on it, but just about done.

Well, better get on with my list or I am
gonna tell you all of my thankfuls before
I even get started................lol

All the rest of these are my pics from last year or the year before!


#1

I am thankful

that I finally met a lady I have heard about a
 lot lately, but had never met, she will be heading 

up the women's ministry in our church.  I was

delighted to meet her this morning as she visited

with our bible study group.  She is a lovely lady.

Now I don't have to wonder who she is anymore!!

#2

I am thankful

for a  new shiny creamy white ceramic pumpkin

 we found on a quick trip to Hobby Lobby last

night.  She was beautiful and 40% off,  so she

just had to make her way to our house,  since

I decided to make my white living room look

a bit Fallish too!  

#3

I am thankful

for a nice movie we watched last night called

the Notebook III.  It really was a very good

movie,  and had the same characters in it from

the Notebook II,  also a great movie as well.

#4

I am thankful

for afternoon naps..........in which I am about

to partake.  Don't do it often, but certainly more than

I used to..........  but when I do, just a short 30 min.of

kicking back in the recliner, whether I sleep or not

is so rejuvenating!

#5

I am thankful
that I finally decided on a new dentist for us.
After much research and arduous decision making
I called and made appts. for us yesterday!
Don't know about you,  but just don't make
decision as easily as I used to..................lol


#6
I am thankful
for something I read today, that said Christianity
is the fastest growing religion in the world, and
that it is spreading like wildfire in other countries
like, China, India, Africa, and southeast Asia.
I find that incredibly exciting considering our
culture today!

#7
I am thankful
for all things Fall, especially pumpkins,  I just
love pumpkins,  and I love anything made with
pumpkin especially pumpkin pie, and pumpkin
butter, which is next on my list to make.



#8
I am thankful
for a sweet compliment I got on my daughter from
her older co-worker yesterday when I went to pick
 her up to go to lunch. Makes a Mom's heart sing!!
Would just love to be a fly on the wall and watch
her as she does her job sometime,  cause I just
 know she does a great job!


#9
I am thankful
for all the sweet things that she tell that Jerry does
for her as well.  He is really good to her.......
Another thing that makes a Mom's heart sing!! lol

#10
I am thankful
we are gonna do something with Scott and Megan
 this weekend,  as we haven't seen the in awhile.



#11
I am thankful
that Princess Kate and Prince William did get
some justice from the courts on their invasion of
privacy situation, altho,  I doubt with the internet
media that it will kill all of the pictures unfortunately.
At least it might help to quell them being hunted
down and  infringed upon the way they are.
I don't care how much money someone has,
or how famous or popular they are, no one has
the right to treat people like that, it's just wrong!!



#12
I am thankful
for a delicious low fat white sauce recipe I found 
online that is made with rice flour.  I made it tonight
to go on our cauliflower.  I have not had that in years
and it was sooo good.  I think it would make great
sausage gravy to go on biscuits as well. Yum!
My dad used to make that and it was so wonderful!
Also would make great creamed squash or cream

of broccoli soup.  If anyone is interested let me

know and I will share the recipe.

and this is my front door!!


Well, that is it for this Thursday.....


Thanks for stopping in...........
and for your sweet comments,
  it is always great to hear form you.


Love, Hugs, and
 Sweet Pumpkin Blessings,
Nellie
