Thankful Thursday September 12, 2024, and pics of Sunflowers
The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.
Psalm 28:7 NIV
Greetings Sweet Friends,
Hope you have had a good week.
Been a good one here. Have been
on the phone most of the day, so it
was not a productive day in the way
you would think, but it has been very
productive emotionally and relationally.
My kind of day......lol
Pictures today are of Sunflowers thanks
to Pixabay. They are a nice Summer to
Fall transitional flower.
Hope you enjoy them!
Now on with my Thankfuls....
#1
Thankful for our new mattresses. We just got them, last Thursday so have only had 7 nights
to sleep on it, but it has been very good.....
Sleeping like a log.........lol
I have been have a lot of sciatic pain lately, so
after 8 yrs. we decided maybe it was the mattress cause it started happening after we turned our
mattresses end to end the last time. So sure
hoping this fixes the problem....it is mostly
at night thank goodness, but will be nice to
not have it, so will see.......
Sciatica is a lil better, so I am hopeful,
maybe it just takes some time. No
back aches either.........so that's good too!
#2
Thankful our new mattresses came with
very nice mattress pads and sheet sets, and
pillows. I remember when we first got our adjustable bed over 8 years ago, we had to still
go out and buy all of that, and since the mattresses were X Long, it took us some time
to find the XL things.
#3
Thankful for Broccoli cheese Quiche and Chocolate Pudding.. I hadn't made either is a long time, and this week I did and they were both delicious and will be showing up on our menus again very often. I remembered that pudding
use to be a staple at our house as kids.
#4
Thankful for a nice evening out doing nothing
exciting really, but went grocery shopping,
ran to Michaels to get some Fall scrapbooking
paper, and looked around awhile then went
for a late dinner. Was just fun to get out
of the house for awhile.
#5
Thankful I was able to find "The Magicians
Nephew" by CS Lewis online. Part of the
Narnia Chronicles. Lil darling is reading
it for Literature, so it is helpful to use as
a book for me too, as we do her school work.
I can just read it or print it out if I want,
as it is in PDF form.
#6
Thankful that when the spring on our garage
door broke and we couldn't get our car out,
that I was able to go on facebook and ask
friends if they had any recommendations for
a garage door place to fix it, and I got a
response very quickly from a sweet friend
at church, followed by another long time
friend and our Daughter, who had used the
place the first one mentioned. We called
them and they are coming out today (Sat.)
around 4 pm.
Note: They came and we are up and
running once again! PTL
#7
Thankful that we had gone to the grocery
store the night before and had everything
we needed for dinner and more.
#8
Thankful the fellow from the garage door
Co. came today, even called and asked if
he could come earlier which we were of
course, totally on board with. Very nice
young man, and we have a working garage
door again. He replaced both springs so
we should be good for a long time hopefully,
as the other springs lasted 23 years.
So praise the Lord, because
we thought originally it might not happen
until next week sometime.
If you live in the Orlando, Florida area,
we used Precision Garage Door Repair,
and they even come out on weekends, and
it is not suppose to cost any more than
normal, much to our surprise and delight.
Thankful always for God's provisions
financially. As we have had a pretty
expensive couple of months.
#10
Thankful for leftover shrimp with which
I made Shrimp salad. It was delicious and
we haven't had than in awhile either.
I will share recipe soon.
#11
Thankful for a great sermon on "Heaven"
by a new to us Pastor, who was previously
a missionary in Africa for years. His wife
grew up in our church, so we are quite
familiar with he and his family. So nice
they can be back in the states as their
parents are getting older and in need of
help and some of their children are now
college age and going to school her in
the United States.
#12
Thankful for several longggg phone conversations with my Daughter this week. We hadn't talked to each other in about 12 days since she had her hubbies whole family with them. They had a
great time, and we had a great time talking
about the good time they had, and catching
up on life with each other.
That's it for Cozy Place this week.
Glad you could stop in
and
Hope you have a Fabulous rest of the week.
Love, Hugs and
Early September Blessings,
Nellie

Thoughts to Ponder
Hello Sweet Friends,
This is sort of a wierd "Thoughts to Ponder"
but had taken the pictures, so thought I would
share it cause someone might want to try it
before we get officially into Fall. lol
Plus I haven't done this post for awhile. lol
It's a fruit salad, that is so good!!
and quick and easy.
We eat it with Salmon, and grits
and it feels like a gourmet meal.
My Easy Fruit Salad Recipe
It's just lettuce (I love butter lettuce) but you can use any lettuce you want, this looks like a
leaf and romaine mixed)
Strawberries
Blueberries
Dried Cranberries (Craisens)
Coconut
Pecans
then use this Dressing, it's great!
Maybe this ponder might lead to a yummy
dinner or lunch even!! lol
Happy Eating!!
Love and Blessings,
Nellie

Thankful Thursday, September 5, 2024, and images of all things orange
The Lord is my strength and my shield;
my heart trusts in him, and he helps me.
My heart leaps for joy,
and with my song I praise him.
Psalm 28:7 NIV
Greeting Sweet Friends,
Gee, I got up and got busy with my Fall decorating and completely forgot today was Thankful Thursday, so just now realizing...........lol It's was all ready too, other than this greeting I am writing now. Anywho, Hope you all have had
a great week, and that you will have an
even better week-end.
Since it isn't officially Fall yet, I decided to do images of all things that are Orange, to warm you up for the Fall colors and decorating if you haven't been inspired yet!! lol
So on with my Thankfuls......
#1
Thankful for a few cute Fall things I found at Dollar tree. Helps to get me inspired.
#2
Thankful for dinner out and an opportunity
to help someone and also to pray for our
servers Grandmother who was going into
rehab, at a place we have experienced in
the past. Her Granddaughter said she
felt so much better about the rehab after
talking with us, and said, yall were meant
to be here tonight, cause I really needed
to hear this.... Love that!!
#3
Thankful for how the Lord takes care of
his children by orchestrating situations.
We would have never had the conversation
with our server in #2, had it not been
for needing to help the man at the table
across from us, because he had just
gotten out of rehab, and was so weak
he had trouble getting up. Hence why
she told us about her Grandmother.
#4
Thankful for a good Friday school day
with lil darling. She is working very hard to
get her work done as her other Grandmother
is picking her up earlier today than normal.
#5
Thankful to be packing up my Spring/ Summer
decor and starting my Fall decorating.
#6
Thankful that God gave us different Seasons to enjoy. Even tho I doubt we will get any Fall weather before the end of October, and it's
pretty short lived. We still get to enjoy the changesin Home decor, and food. Just nice having lil changes in life at times.
#7
Thankful for a lovely day at church, then getting to go out to lunch with our friends and their Son, A fun time with good food, good fellowship!
#8
Thankful that I found my purse.....after we left our friends on Sunday and were on the way home, and after about 10 mins. I realized I didn't have my purse. So we headed back to Olive Garden to check, cause I wasn't sure if I left it there, or in the ladies restroom at church. Thankfully, it was still hanging on the back of the chair at the restaurant and no one had been seated there yet, so just walked right in and got it. Checked and nothing was missing. Altho, we will be checking our credit card status daily for a few weeks, just in case, someone just got the number of our credit card, but really think they didn't.
#9
Thankful they had all my fav frozen yogurt
flavors this week.......as lately they have them,
but they haven't frozen yet, so they are like
water, and not appetizing to say the least.
#10
Thankful to be working in my closet again.
Am working on photographs of memories
with our family over many many years.
Have one box done, 2 more to go, but have
to wait till next week when hubbies surgery
has been a month. He is not supposed to
life anything heavy until then, and they are
heavy boxes.
#11
Thankful for a good day schooling with lil
darling even tho it was labor day, they had
the normal amount of work, and she wasn't
thrilled about it, but she worked hard and
got in done. They will be off for a week the
end of the month so I expect that was
probably the reason.
#12
Thankful for a joy filled and rejuvenating
experience of just sitting with my feet
propped up... in our living room while
listening and singing to music on my fav
christian radio station Z88.3, as I perused
old Fall magazines. Just love the songs,
the colors of Fall and the pretty pictures,
and the promise of all that God will bring
to us this season of the year. Fun to
look forward to................
Well, that's all for today folks,
Have an bright and cheerful rest of the week
and
Glad you stopped by for a visit,
Love, Hugs, and
First of September Blessings,
Nellie
