Thankful Thursday Sept. 17, 2015, Playing with green #6

The day is yours, and yours also the night; 

you established the sun and moon. 

 It was you who set all the boundaries of

 the

 earth; you made both summer and winter.

Psalm 74:16-17

Greetings Sweet Friends,

What cha' been up to lately?
 Doing any Fall decorating yet?

  I can see that some of you have, with
 the neat Fall Home Tours, and linky
 parties that have been going on the last
 few weeks.  So much great inspiration
 out there.

I am about to drag my Fall things out...
 once I finish this post. So I am getting 
a bit excited about that!

Guess I will get on with my thankfuls so
I can get my Fall on...........lol


I am thankful

#1

for the time we had with Dee last weekend,
 and that she got back home safe and sound 
 to her hubby.

#2

that I finally got some routine Drs. appts.

scheduled and off my to do list..............

I have a hard time making myself do that

to be honest,  guess cause I know once 

you go to one visit,  they add about 2 or

3 more onto it .............for bone density

test and mammo's and whatever else
they can think of ....  lol

ewwwwwww, gonna be a fun few

 months!!  lol  Have to say tho,  I am
always happy when I am done and
get good results...........and feel proud
of myself for doing what I would
rather not do............lol

#3

that I found an orange scarf I needed to make

 a new outfit, and if you bought 2 you got them

 both for the same price as one.......

So can't beat that!

so I ordered a royal blue one as well.  

They will be very nice for Fall and Winter.

These pics were all taken when I set the

 table for din din after my playing.

#4

that I finally located some navy blue pumps.

My goodness who knew they would be so

hard to find!!

Can you tell I am adding to my Fall 

Accessories.

#5

for a seemingly, to me anyway, miraculous

surprise in our back yard.  When I was out 

there watering plants the other day I saw

 this beautiful salmon colored flower sticking

 out of a bush, so I went to investigate, and 

upon closer inspection it was an Ixora

 bloom.  Now for the miraculous part, we

planted some Ixora bushes there probably 

close to 20 years ago, and they all froze

that same Winter and died, and we have

not seen hide nor hair of them since.....

until a few days ago.......

So what a pleasant surprise...............

Ixora are native to South Florida and they

do wonderfully well there,  but not in

Central Florida, and such a big and pretty

bloom too.  Should have gotten out there

to get a picture this morning before it

rained,  hope the rain didn't ruin it.
Note: When out after the rain the bloom
looks pretty sad now...........Poo

#6

that Dee had a lil time to go thru some stuff

 that was left in her closet that she wanted to 

keep, so it is now stored in a container and

 ready for us to take up to her next time we

 go. Another step done on my 

clean out trail......lol

#7

for some new hummus we found that Dee

 had told us about.  It is called "Everything 

Hummus",  and it has the same spices that

 Everything bagels have.

Very Tasty I might add!

#8

for my nice clean, comfy, and cozy

 bed every night.  Hubby and I say

how good our bed feels almost 

nightly, and it makes me think of

people who live in 3rd world 

countries who have no beds and

sleep on the ground, floor. or in

a hammock.

I can't even imagine what that

would be like............the closest

experience I can think of is when

We went camping when I was 25

 yrs. old and we slept on the ground

 on a blanket in a tent just one night

and my hips hurt for days after, and

 I am sure that doesn't even come 

close to what it is really like...........

These last 4 pictures were taken of 

breakfast while the table still had

the Black and White look.

#9

for our first Pumpkin Pie of the 

season, and it really isn't even Fall yet!

Thanks to Sam's club, we love their

pumpkin pies!  Lil darling and I had

our first piece this  Wed. morning with

 whip cream and pecans,  and think she

 liked it as much as Grammy.........lol

This will be my breakfast go to until

we eat it all..............

#10

for a new supermarket find.....
it is Simply Lemonade with blueberry.
Thought their Raspberry lemonade
was good, but hubby and I like this one
even better, it seems to be less tart.
Delicious............
We found ours at Target and Scott
bought some at Publix the same day.
Think it just came out.

#11

that Dee sold another house and had the
closing today, and everything went very
smoothly.  It has been her easiest one so
 far..........the people were so nice and so 
easy to work with.  Think the Lord
 blessed her for her good attitude and 
perseverance, as the first sale was really
 horrendous and the 2nd one very difficult 
as well.  The Lord just keeps sending her 
clients........I think it is because He knows
her heart.......as she really wants to serve
her clients and help them find a home
they will love..........

So Congratulations DeeAnna
on a job well done!

That is blackberry jam from a store in

 Asheville and it is delicious, and has 
whole blackberries in it too.  Yummo!
We are sad... as it is almost gone........lol

Guess what we will be looking for the
next time we go there...........

#12

for exercise......cause when I do it I am
so glad I did,  as it really does make me
feel better and have more energy. Told
hubby we need to change our thought
patterns to I love exercising,  rather 
than dreading it like we most of the
time do................that would probably
help us a lot...........lol
