Thankful Thursday July 2, 2015, and flowers for you......

Azaleas with a posterized affect.

For, "All men are like grass, and all their glory

 is like the flowers of the field;

 the grass withers and the flowers fall, 

 but the word of the Lord stands forever." 

1 Peter 1:24-25 NIV

Greetings Sweet Friends,

Happy 4th of July to You just a 
few days early...........lol
Have you got any plans yet??

We don't.....have just been so busy
 this week doing all my things you
 will read about and more it has
 sort of sneaked up on me..........
but that's okay.......we really don't
 mind, celebrating just the 2 of us.
Have just been out grocery
shopping today with a quick run
to Wally World afterwards.  It is
so scorching out there,  I could
not wait to get home.........
Home Sweet Home where my
Blessed Air conditioner is.......lol
The grocery store was plenty cool
and nice, but Walmart was a bit
warmish inside, which is not fun
for this girl!! lol

Anywho............

Thought some pretty flowers might
 make you feel happy, if you aren't
happy already!  lol
  Flowers definitely make me happy.
Most of these pics were taken by me,
  but a few were taken by my Son, 
Scott when he was hiking the
 Appalachian trail around
 5 years ago. I put names on the
ones I knew what they were, but
there were a few I don't know.

So on with my thankfuls......

I am thankful

#1

that our kitty Molly has made 

quite a miraculous recovery,
getting around very well, even
ran into the house a few times,
eating well too.
Truly amazing, again a big
 Thank you to those that have 
prayed for her. Cause we know
 this could only be answer
 to prayer!! 

possibly periwinkles but 
not sure!


#2

that one of our Sunday School 

couples hosted a barbecue/pool
party on Sunday for our whole 
class and their children. I was not
 feeling well so did not get to go, 
bummer, but was glad hubby 
could go for awhile, and they all
 had a great time.

that one of our female students

told hubby a story about some

advice I had given her years ago,

when she was a new believer,

that helped her so much, with a

hard relationship she had.  It is

always encouraging to know that

you have impacted someone in

a positive way!!

#4 -9

for all the things I got accomplished
this week, that I told you on Tuesday
that have been nagging and annoying
 at the back of my mind. Such a great
feeling to have them done.

Ginger

1) went thru my storage container 

cabinet that was in a major uproar

 from our lil darling playing in there,

which was quite handy at the time,

 (she is over that now.  lol), so it

was time to straighten it out, plus

got rid of lids or containers that 

had no matching piece.  It looks

 so much better and is much

 easier to find what I need now.  

2) We removed some shirts from

hubbies closet that he never wears

but are in good shape, so we can

 send them to Good will, so he has

more room in his closet now. We
took that and other stuff to Good
Will so that was another things we
got done....loving this!!

Bougainvilla

3) Found a jewelry holder thingie

in my closet I bought last year, 

and had forgotten about...so got 

that out and filled it up, and it is

great!!  Will do a post and show

this neat product to you next

Tuesday.

Agapanthus

4) Packed away jewelry of my

late Mother-in-law's that was

leftover after all the girls in the

family went thru it and took

what they wanted, and it has

been sitting on my dresser in

a box for over 6 months, cause

I just didn't know what to do

with the other pieces, cause

it is all nice jewelry. Hubby

said why don't you just pack

it away for now!
and I thought, why didn't I 
think of that!~!  lol

Sometimes I just think other

things have our attention and

we just don't think about

whatever it is, and then when

we give it some priority great

things happen!!  lol

5) Finally tucked away some

financial records from the

change over into the New

Year.  I keep them up in a

big box on my closet shelf,

but it is too heavy for me,

and kept forgetting to ask

hubby to get it down. So

remembered Monday

 night!!  Whoo Hoo!

#10

for flowers.......truly, they are
definitely one of my simple 
pleasures..............and am
reminded of that just by 
seeing all of these pics.....

orchid

#11
for a flock of 21 Ibis birds, having
breakfast in our front yard.  They
were mostly youngsters and so
much fun to watch, cause they
get it lil fights and jump around
and stuff, so funny...........

#12

that our daughter DeeAnna finally
closed on a house for a family
she has been working with for 
6 months, they have put offers
in on a number of houses and
things just didn't work out, but
finally they found a home they
really love, and Dee is so
 happy for them, and so happy
 to finally have gotten the sale.
She has truly worked for her
commission, let me tell you!! 
 So we are rejoicing with her!


Well, there you have it another

week at Cozy Place.....

Glad you could drop by and hope
you have been reminded of all
that we have to be grateful for,
even in this crazy world that is
getting crazier by the day!!  

Rose of Sharon maybe??


Love, Hugs, and
Happy 4th of July Blessings,
Nellie

Just came back from the hospital my SIL
Susan broke her other hip.  She just recovered
from breaking the other one 81/2 mos. ago.
Which means she will need the same surgery
again too, and more time in a rehab
facility.   We just can't believe it!!
She is only 63 yrs. old........but thankfully
her attitude is good and she isn't in a
lot of pain...............
