Thankful Thursday Jan. 11, 2017, scenes from Winters past.....

He put a new song in my mouth,

 a hymn of praise to our God. 

Many will see and fear the LORD

and put their trust in him.

Psalm 40:3

Greetings Sweet Friends,

How ya doing today?  Are you

keeping warm??  

 We have some sunshine and warmer

 weather until tomorrow.  It was 79

 here yesterday so I actually stole

a few mins, in the sunshine which

felt glorious since we haven't seen

Mr. Sun too much lately here in

Florida.  lol

We had a lil excitement here last

night.....was lying in bed and

saw lights shining in our living

room window,  then they went

away so just thought it was a

car backing in or something,

then I saw it again and again 

so got up to explore and it was

our neighbors next door and

they had seen a man standing

in our yard and I guess when he

 saw them, they thought he came

 down the side of our house as it 

is wooded over there, so they 

were looking around and called 

the Sheriff's dept. They had

their car robbed some months

back....but hubby checked the

 car and all was well and we

 turned on all the lights outside,

 prayed and went back to sleep.

#1

  So thankful to God for his 

protection and thankful for good

 neighbors and the police who

 came out to check on things.

#2

Thankful for a fun sleepover
last Friday with lil darling, as it has
 been awhile,  and a good evening 

with her and our son.

#3

Thankful that a friend at church
told me she was reading a book
I gave her last year, and it was
really hitting her where she's at 
right now. It is a great book that 
I have read about 3 times and I 
think every christian in midlife 
should read....it is called 
Life in the Middle,  midlife and
the Grace of God. In fact, think
I am gonna look mine up and
read it again,  it is such a help-
ful, hopeful and encouraging
book, especially in times of 
trouble.

#4
Thankful for a new tea hubby
brought me from the store.
It is called Cinnamon Apple
Spice and it is by Celestial
Seasonings.  Delicious!
and.... I can drink it without
sugar too....really like that...
as I can not do coffee without
cream and sugar!!  Plus I get
 tired of coffee after awhile.


#5
Thankful for a good report
at the dentist on Tuesday.

#6
Thankful for a nice relaxing
hand wax scented with lavendar
for free at my dentist office.
Something new they are doing
as it can relax their patients
while getting their dental work
done. I really liked it myself,
it was relaxing and makes 
your hands look and feel
so soft.



#7
Thankful for a fun day out
shopping afterwards.  Found
a couple of new colored glass
candlesticks for when I start
my Winter decorating soon.

#8
Thankful that I had made 
Chili last night for dinner
tonight....as I was starving
when I got home.  Had a
smoothie around lunch time
but it wore off.....lol


#9
for a sweet day with lil darling,
on Wednesday, and she and
my son stayed for dinner.

#10
Thankful for a call from one of
my best friends on Monday, 
always so great to hear from her.
We always just pick up where
we left off.......love that!!



#11
Thankful for the Hallmark chanel
and all the good movies and series
that they have.  We found a new
one called "Signed, Sealed and
Delivered" and we love it, have
only seen 4 episodes, and they
were great.....clean, cute and a
lil bit corny at times,  but so
entertaining......

#12
Thankful that my son-in-love.
Jerry finally got all his birthday
gifts.  His birthday was last
Thursday but because of the
snow in Charleston,  he got nada,
  not even a card in the mail, but he 
did get texts and ecards.....thank
Goodness and they couldn't go
out to dinner either, but everything
 came this passed Tuesday, Finally!
At least it all arrived on the same
 day, so it seemed more like
his birthday!!

Glad you could stop in.....

Have a lovely Friday and
Weekend,

Keep you light shining
brightly...... Love, Hugs and 
January Blessings,

Nellie
