proclaiming aloud your praise and
telling of all your wonderful deeds.
Psalm 26:7
Greetings Sweet Friends,
Hope you are having fabulous
weather today.....
We are....it is a gorgeous, sunny,
clear blue sky, very breezy yet
90 degree day, but doesn't feel
quite that hot when the breeze is
blowing...Sat out for a lil while to
get some Vitamin D......but can't
take those 90 degrees for
too long if the winds stops. lol

Everything has greened up so
beautifully too, since we have
had some rain every day this
week so far, think it is done
now until next week. So the
scenery is good too.....

I am thankful
#1
that my New Magnolia Market
magazine came the end of last
week, so still perusing and
enjoying it.
#2
that Dee and Jerry had a nice get
away at a lakeside cabin in N.C. for
3 days, and that they had safe travels
but mostly they were protected from a
snake in their bedroom while there.
It was a black snake which could have
been a water mocassin,but they really
didn't know what it was....thankful
Rosie their lil dog didn't find it, and
thankful it was small and they had
access to a broom and that they had a
sliding glass door in the bedroom so
Jerry could sweep it outside. They
did leave earlier than they had
planned and I don't blame them,
cause it could have been there the
whole time they were sleeping in
that room. Creepy!!
#3
for a great time over at Scott
and Megans for dinner on Sun-
day to celebrate Mother's Day.
Scott made some wonderful
Lasagna, beans, salad and garlic
bread......the beans and a lot of
the ingredients for the lasagna
came from his garden as well,
basil,oregano and fresh tomatoes.
Everything was delicious!
and we even got a doggie bag to
take home, so it was dinner for
Tues.night and even tasted
better than on Sunday. lol
Love that about Italian food.
#4
for the sweet card from them,
and the neat pillow Megan had
made for me with the family's
pictures on it.
Lovely and meaningful!
#5
that our lil brown bunny is
back, hadn't seen him in quite
awhile and was concerned some
thing happened to him, but have
seen him twice now in the last
week. He is adorable!
#6
that our Beauty Berry bush
has grown back, as we had to
cut it way back when we were
clearing the side yard a few
months back. I can see that it
is starting to produce tiny
berries that will be beautiful
as always, a gorgeous shade
of purple, in case you aren't
familiar with them.
#7
that after saying I couldn't really
grow hydrangeas on someones
blog post about
"How to grow hydrangeas",
that when I went to water a
small hydrangea plant I have
in a pot out in the backyard, that
did have just one bloom.....found
that now it actually had 4 pink
blooms, course, they are small ones
but hey, I am tickled pink!! .
Hoping that maybe I have finally
found the perfect spot for them.
That would be awesome!
Hard to see but in case you don't
know, if you click on one pic
it blows them all up for better
viewing pleasure!
#8
that the young couple we are working
with in the young marrieds class and
that want to be missionaries are
gonna have an opportunity to be on
staff with our church for 2 yrs. to
help get them to their goal...
We might be losing them tho, as they
will have other duties, so they might
not be able to continue with us, and
we certainly will not love losing
them for sure.....
but that is okay...we know the
Lord has a plan, and I had some
interesting thoughts this morn-
ing while working outside, which
were not my thoughts!
#9
that finally after 3-4 yrs. with a
dishwasher that didn't really
wash the dishes, hubby called
it a dish sanitizer, but in the
last year or so it hasn't even
been that, just a dish drainer
is more like it. lol
Our new one finally arrived...
today which is Wednesday,
only took us over 2 years to find
one in Bisque that we thought
would really work well, and
we got it at half price! Hubby
is installing it as I write this...
I am jumping up and down
happy about it.....Seriously,
Can't wait to wash the
first load..............
Poo.....Gotta wait till tomorrow
course, after all this time what
is one more day......
He wound up needed a part
so hopefully, it should be up
and running by Thursday nite.
Well, our first load is washing.
Whoo Hoo!
#10
that we were able to find an apt.
size refrigerator too, at a great
price to replace the 32 yr. old
one we had in the garage for
holiday overflow, leftovers and
sodas.....
They delivered that today as
well.........so pleased as punch
about that too.
2 more things of our pre-
retirement list. lol
#11
that we finished lil darlings
doll pillow today, and she
was pleased as punch about
taking it home....she was
kissing it and just loves it.
So Sweet.....
Remember this from last
week.............
#12
for all the rain storms we
had this week. We have been
so dry here, so it was great to
get the rain..........the air seems
so fresh and glad that it washes
away all the pollen for awhile
anyway...............
Well, happy you could drop by today,
and hope you will share something
you are thankful for too.

Have a.....
Pleasant, Peaceful and Safe
Memorial Day Weekend!

I always enjoy your Thankful Thursday's post, Nellie, The snake story was something else! Loved all the house photos too! I love hydrangeas, but have never had too much luck with them, but I am still working on that!~smile~
ReplyDeletehave a blessed Memorial Day weekend!
Sue
Hi Sue......
ReplyDeleteSo nice to hear from you, and thanks so much for your sweet and encouraging comments.
Yes, the snake was something else.....who would expect to go away to stay at a cabin or
hotel and find a snake in there......especially in your bedroom where you have been sleeping
for 2 nights already........Quite scary......to say the least.
I think hydrangeas are just amazing flowers.....and I love when you drive by older homes
up in Ga. and even northern Florida and you see these big bushes full of these huge flowers,
they are just amazing.......makes my heart sing everytime I see them, and renews my desire
to grow them...........I am still working on that too......altho, I do give up every so
often, then lo and behold someone will give me one for my birthday or something and I get
another chance to try.........lol
Hope all is well with you and yours hon, and hope you have a blessed and contemplative
Memorial Day weekend.
Blessings,
Nellie
