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.
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.
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
