Happy Sunday Sweet Friends,
Here are the verses for today!
The LORD is righteous in all his ways and faithful in all he does. The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.
Psalm 52:8-9 NIV
Greetings Sweet Friends,
and
Welcome to the Fall Season!
It has finally arrived and hope you will be enjoyingall the wonderful things that Fall brings to mind. Fall makes me feel very nostalgic, as I remember as a kid going to football games( mostly to socialize) and it was cold so we had to bundle up, cause they were at night, raking and burning leaves, getting to wear some sweaters and long sleeves to school (which you had to take off or practically die in by 11 AM... lol) Fall carnivals, and candied apples, and I could go on.........but I will spare you as I know you have your own sweet list....
Have to say Fall is the only time I love Fall colors in my home! lol Cause Fall colors make the house feel warm and cozy which is not what we want here in Florida during our Spring, Summer and quite a few Winter Days too. So enjoying the change of faking myself out that it is cool outside, course, I lose that illusion the moment I walk out the door. lol
Pictures today are of a neutral kitchen table, from the past, so I am gonna ease you into Fall cause I think it also has a Fall look as well............
So on with my Thankfuls......
#1
Thankful to get to talk to another long time friend
recently, it's like we just pick up where we left
off..........love that! She lives in Alabama and
I live in Florida. I have know her for over
50 years, I worked with her only months
before I married my hubby.
#2
Thankful my Sister-in-law continues to do well,
She is supposed to get moved to rehab soon.
Note; She was moved to rehab on Sunday afternoon.
She is coming along well, but these things take time.
#3
Thankful for how chatty lil darling was this
week when we picked her up from school.
Sometimes she is tired and doesn't feel like
talking, so we get a kick out of it when she
is so talkative.
#4
Thankful for ice cream sandwiches. They have been
our go to dessert for about a month or so. we just
split one, and it the perfect amount to make us happy!
We have lil darling hooked on them now too. lol
#5
Thankful for our church service this morning,
it was really a good sermon out of Habbakuk
chapter 1 and 2. Didn't get to go out with our
friends today as we had to run to the store
and to take care of Susan's pets.
#6
Thankful that Susan finally got moved to the
rehab center today. It is one that is affiliated
with our Church Denomination. We have not
been able to see her cause of Covid, and was
hoping to go see her today, but visits are by
appt. only, so there was no one there to make
an appt. for today, so have to wait and call
tomorrow and see when we can go. She is
not in pain, and is walking with a walker
some, so they just have to get her built up
physically with exercise and eating well, and
also get one of her meds straightened out
it was extremely high and might have also
been responsible for her fall. Since the levels
are going down she is a lot more clear minded,
which is great.
#7
Thankful that we didn't wind up going just to take her
phone charger and drop it off, because thankfully we
found out she has a phone in her room, so we could wait
till we go visit. Cause later today we found out thru
talking to her that we have the wrong phone charger,
so would have been a wasted trip.
#8
Thankful for a very encouraging conversation
with some young people at our church (in their late
30's-early 40's) that we have known a long time,
and what a great and faith filled outlook they
have on life and how they are really trusting
God in all the craziness there is going on.
Really blessed our hearts.
#9
Thankful that I Talked with another longtime
friend this week, that I haven't seen or talked to
in a long while other than commenting on face book
occasionally. I saw on face book her Mother just
passed away on Monday. I always marvel that
it is like we just saw each other yesterday. Just so
natural and normal. It was great to talk to her
even under/ and because of the circumstances.
#10
Thankful for Zyrtec...........or I think I would not
have gotten any sleep at all last night. Our allergies
are acting up big time because I am allergic to birds,
cats and dust, of which all 3 are at my sister-in-laws
house. Hubby is allergic to cats too, but think maybe
more, as he had to take one too. So we had no sleep
until about 5 a.m., and got up at 10 a.m. so feeling
pretty dopey headed today!! lol
It just makes me so tired and drowsy feeling
the next day which is why I put off taking it so
long.............but so thankful it does work when
I have to take it...........hopefully we will sleep
like a rock tonight. lol
#11
Thankful for a McDonald's "Caramel Frappe"
that helped pull me out of some of my tired and
drowsy dopey headedness today, and it was
quite delicious I might add.
#12
Thankful for a fun night out looking for a new
computer chair, as mine just broke yesterday.
Didn't find one, but did get some ideas and saw
one online I really like, so gotta do a bit more
research before I decide. While we were out
we went to TJ Maxx, our Fav Mexican restaurant
and even for Jeremiahs Ice cream, and it was
yummy and to cap it off we saw this huge
harvest moon as we turned onto our street.
It was really beautiful!
Have to say it was a much needed night
out as it has been a busy and crazy week,
and I really didn't even want to go, but
hubby did, and I am so glad I pushed myself
to do it, as it was good to get out and enjoy
life a little.
Well, that's our week at Cozy Place.
Thanks for swinging by.....
Have a great weekend
and
keep your light shining brightly!
Love, Hugs, and
4th week of September Blessings,
Nellie
Happy Sunday Monday
Sweet Friends,
Here is the verse for today.

with everything going on..... I completely forgot
to post it. lol
LORD, be gracious to us; we long for you.

Pictures today are of Fall Flowers
Hope you enjoy them!
So on with my Thankfuls.....
#1 and 2
Thankful for a great day with lil darling on
Friday. She did a great job on all her school
work, and we managed to have some fun
as well. Also Thankful that she and our Son
got to stay for dinner and we all played some
wii bowling. It was a very good day other
than my limping around on my foot cause it
was hurting, not sure what it is or if it
is possibly gout. Just woke up that way.
crazy!
#3
Thankful for lil darlings sense of humor
and her hearty laugh, which makes me laugh
all the harder.
#4
Thankful that I had nothing I had to do
on Saturday and Sunday, so I could stay off my
foot and keep it elevated all day, even tho I was
bummed cause my plan was to do Fall decorating,
and to go to church on Sunday. Well, life is
what happens when we are making our plans. lol
My foot seems a little better at least, so hopefully
that is progress. ( Written Sunday evening)
#5
Thankful my foot is better, and hoping to be
able to do some Fall decorating tomorrow (Monday).
#6
Thankful that my Sweet Hubby took such good care
of me so I could stay off my foot, and it sure paid off.
My foot was back to normal on Monday but was
still limping some due to the muscle in my leg from
walking funny when I did have to use it.
But could sure be worse. lol
#7
Thankful that Chick-fil-a and Tijuana Flats
made dinner for us the last few nights. lol
Very grateful for restaurants and take out......
#8
Thankful for a new movie we saw in the Theatre,
on Monday Evening called "Show us the Father".
It was excellent, and we would highly recommend it.
It is another Kendrick Brother film: in case you
don't know they made "Fireproof" and War Room"
and many other good movies. They do really great work.
#9
Thankful for a late dinner after the movie at
Perkins. It was nice to get us out of the house
for awhile.
#10
Thankful that although my Sister-in-law fell and we
had to call an Ambulance. She was not hurt too badly.
Since she has had both hips broken and had surgery
years back, It is a miracle that she didn't break any
thing in her hips. She does have a pelvic fracture
but we thought she was going to have to have surgery,
but she isn't....that is a huge Praise. Not sure
what the next steps are yet, but think it might be
rehab and theraphy.
#11
Thankful that my hubby had the opportunity to help
a friend of ours Daughter with her Geometry, as she
is a great student but is having difficulty learning from
the teacher she has. Think she has a better grasp
on things after today hopefully.
#12
Thankful that my Daughter had a patient write
a sweet letter about how kind and helpful she was to
her, and she sent 2 boxes of donuts along, so the
whole office could have some, and she said it just
perked up the whole office. What a kind yet
simple thing to do.....think we are gonna try to
do something like that for the nurses/staff on
our Sister-in-laws floor at the hospital.
Well, that's it for Cozy Place this week.
Thanks for coming by
Hope you have a Wonderful Weekend.
Love, Hugs, and
Mid September Blessings,
Nellie

Greetings Sweet Friends,
Hope you have had a good week, and I am sure some of you might be experiencing some cooler weather, I hope so for you! Cause it is still hot as blue blazes here. lol But It's been a very good week anyway.
Pictures today are from A Fall Past in our home.
So on with my Thankfuls
#1
Thankful that lil darling told me she was praying for her lil friends grandfather, cause he somehow hurt his leg and had to be in a wheel chair and her friends were very worried about him. So precious..........
#2
Thankful for a great day at church and that we got to go to lunch with our friends as it's been about a month since we have seen them, as they were gone and we missed a Sunday, so it was fun to hear about their trip and to have a pleasant and fun lunch at Olive Garden.
#3
Thankful to find some low sugar/ Almond cookies that we love, and our Publix grocery store was out, but we were able to find them at another Publix. They are only 4 gms of sugar per cookie. They are great with a cup of coffee or glass of milk. I think They taste like gingerbread cookies.
#4
Thankful for leftovers from Olive Garden, which will probably be dinner for tomorrow night. lol
#5
Thankful for a fun surprise drop by visit from a long time friend, We see her at church every Sunday but just haven't had a chance to sit down and really catch up. So a nice way to celebrate Labor Day since we didn't have anything planned.
#6
Thankful for homemade brownie sundaes to celebrate Labor Day. They were truly yummy.
#7
Thankful for an amazing answer to prayer for some dear friends. They had a situation that could have really been a disaster socially, spiritually and emotionally, that the Lord just turned around in a day and left us all in utter amazement. The Lord is so good, and awesomely amazing. Only God could have done it.
#8
Thankful that I finally have kicked off my Fall decorating. Love decorating for Fall especially inside, cause it is so hot outside.....so it kind of fakes us out. lol
#9
Thankful for what we feel is a huge answer to prayer that we have been praying about for months. We are beyond thrilled.
#10
Thankful that we have heard of 2 more things that they can use to help save the lives of covid patients if the CDC will just let them use it.
#11
Thankful for several others answers to prayer this week as well. It has been a very good week for us prayer wise. lol
#12
Thankful that there were no problems in Florida that we heard about any way from TS Mindy. Some rain and thunderstorms were all we and our Daughter had. Perfect!
#13
Thankful for a joke (or at least I hope it was a joke) I read on facebook last week, that just makes me laugh every time I think about it.
You may have seen it too, but I will tell you about it.
A man's wife sent him a picture thru text, of a dress she was trying on at a clothing store and asked him if it made her backside look big.
So wanting to be encouraging he text back right away.... with NOO!
After sending it he saw his phone auto corrected it with MOO!
When he saw what it said..........he said someone help me please!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So we thought this was hilarious but couldn't help imagining what his wives face must have looked like when she rec'd it. lol
I am not fond of auto correct for that very reason, my phone has said some crazy things at times..........
So we have been Mooing a lot this week and laughing our heads off.
Laughter is good medicine,
the bible even say so... lol
So hope it is as funny to you as it was to us!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, that's it for our week at Cozy Place
Thanks for stopping by......
Have a great rest of the week,
Love, Hugs, and
Happy September Blessings,
Nellie
