I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.Ephesians 3:16 NIV
Spring Greetings Sweet Friends,
Hope you are totally able to enjoy Spring where
ever you live. We sure have been.....
We just got back from SC last night, and we had
sort of cool Spring weather, which was delightful,
probably the last of the cool weather we will see
here in Florida, as it is 82 here today.
Pictures today are of Charleston, South Carolina
compliments of Unsplash. Gotta love rainbow row.
and a few of our own.....lol
On with my Thankfuls...................
#1
Thankful for a safe and uneventful trip to
Charleston, SC and back, to see our Daughter,
Son-in-love and furry Grandson dog, Bentley.
So happy to be here........
#2
Thankful for another sunny beautiful day
and sitting outside while catching up and
resting up from our trip up. The day we
went there it was a sunny and beautiful
azure blue sky with no clouds anywhere,
all the way from Florida to South Carolina.
We couldn't believe it....cause it was right
after all those storms.
#3
Thankful for a really yummy dinner at a place called
"Page's "Okra Grill" in Mount Pleasant, SC
My meal was grilled Maui, fried Okra,
mac n' cheese and hushpuppies. and we split a piece of
Peanut butter pie. Every bite was totally delicious.
We want to go again before we go home.
Note: We did go again for my birthday dinner
and we got take out for Sunday Brunch,
All wonderful! Could not say enough about
this restaurant. Service was excellent as well,
and they had this big adirondack chair which
reminded us to take a few pictures. If we
look a lil rough it's cause we were tired and
hungry after traveling all day. lol
Me and Hubby
Dee and Hubby Jerry - there were 2 pics
and unfortunately he had his eyes closed
in both, and we got called to our table,
so that was that. He's cute anyway.
Me and Dee - We wanted to get in the
chair but I was afraid I might not be
able to get out!! lol
#4
Thankful for brownie Sundae's made with
a clean brownie mix called "Simple Mills"
Almond flour baking mix. We are all trying
to eat with more wholesome ingredients,
and every time we find something new
we all get excited. lol
Oh, and the brownies were delicious with
vanilla frozen yogurt.
#5
Thankful for a new HGTV "Home Town show"
with Ben and Erin Napier, where they are
working to restore a city here in Florida that
has sort of died because they built a major
highway around it, which just caused the
downtown area to die. It is in "Sebring
Florida". Really enjoying the series so far.
Course, we love anything Ben and Erin do!!
#6
Thankful for our Daughters ham and scallion
quiche and strawberry and cream cheese
coffee cake. Our favorites that she makes us
every time we come.
#7
Thankful for yogurt bowls my Daughter has
been making us. They are delicious and a great
healthy breakfast. Think they will become a
staple at our house now too.
#8
Thankful that we are getting to celebrate our
birthdays with our Daughter and hubby.
Hubbies has passed and mine is coming next
week, but I will be home by then.
#9
Thankful for a fun day out shopping. We went
to a clothing store we had never been to,
called "Versona". I have never even heard of it,
but it was such a fun store. Lots of brightly
colored clothing, and the cutest hats, (like those
Princess Kate and the English people wear, some
were a lil bigger) but they were adorable, Dee
thought they might be for the Ky. derby, because
a lot of people in Charleston have Derby parties.
They could be for Easter too!
They also had shoes and jewelry. There prices
were pretty reasonable too, so I got a pretty
solid lime green colored linen blouse for my
birthday which should be great for spring
and summer. The store was just a visual
delight, and once I was home I was sorry
I didn't think to take a few picture to show
yall, especially of those hats.............lol
# 10 and 11
Thankful for long talks, sitting outside in the sun
(my legs are more tanned now) and the shade,
when the sun got too hot, game playing, cooking
(for us girls) Watching HGTV's "Home Town"
as they fix up Seabring, Florida, and dry bar
comedy (that made my sides hurt, we were
laughing so hard) and March Madness
(for the guys) and riding around in a beautiful
neighborhood, that is just so southern looking,
and just the sheer fun and delight of being
together.
#12
Just so thankful we got to go visit them for a week.
It was the perfect birthday gift for me, as I will be
Turning 73 in a few more days. So thankful we
can still do that. The whole week was just lovely
and couldn't have been any better.....We had the
best weather, most all were sunny and clear blue
skies, with temps 70 degrees are less,
The Lord just really blessed our week together!
and as much as we love going there (our home
away from home) we love coming home too!!
Always nice to sleep in your own bed....even
tho the other bed is comfy too!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, that's it for this week.........
This is theVacation and Birthday Edition.
Thanks for your visit
and
Have a lovely Weekend

Thankful Thursday March 20, 2025, pics of our guest bath refresh
Faithfulness springs forth from the earth,
and righteousness looks down from heaven.
The Lord will indeed give what is good,
and our land will yield its harvest.
Psalm 85:11-12 NIV
Happy First Day of Spring Sweet Friends,
It's finally here, course, that doesn't mean
we might not have some more cool weather,
but it's should be nicer out where ever you
are I would think....anyway!
Hope this finds you doing well.....been a
good week here.....
Pictures today are of our Spring guest bathroom
refresh using what I had and spending 0 $$.
Decided to use white and periwinkle blue
accents this time and found a new way to
fold the towel online.
Now on with my thankfuls......
#1
Thankful I have started to take down our
Winter decor....
#2
So thankful for the gift of being entrusted
and able to have our only Grandchild, lil darling
for at least one or two days a week since
she was a baby. It has been such a blessing
these 12 years, and we have even read where
grandparents that are involved with their
grandchildren even live longer. So it's a
double blessing!! lol
#3
Thankful that our friends Dad who is 102+ yrs.
got out of the hospital yesterday (Thurs.) and seems
to be doing well. He had the RSV flu and was
in the hospital for 4 days.
Note: As of Sunday, He is very weak and still
at home but having trouble breathing. So hoping
he is gonna be okay.
#4
Thankful that Space X went up to get those
poor stranded astronauts today (Friday)
So praying all goes well, and they are able
to get home to their families. We actually
got to watch it go up and saw the rocket
booster fall off, and then once it was out
of sight we came in and watched a lil of
it on TV.
#5
Thankful for a phone call with a long time
friend this week. Always great to talk
with her and to hear they are doing well,
as her hubby was sick for Months and
had 2 operations.
#6
Thankful for another phone call from a
shorter-long time friend. It was great to
hear from her too, her hubby is about to
retire next weekend. So they are trying
to decide what their next move will be.
#7
Thankful for "Lil Caesars" muffin pizzas.
I love the cheese ones and they are so
good and so filling. That was din din
for Sat. night with a salad.
#8
Thankful for another great day at church
and one of our younger pastors spoke on
the Beatitudes, Matt. 5:8
Blessed are the pure in heart for they
shall see God.
I loved that he gave an example of
having a pure heart before God by
using each of our Pastors as an example,
which had to be an encouragement to
each of them, and because it is so true...
We have 7 of the best Pastors, and we
love everyone of them, and are so grateful
for them and their wives, and children
for those that do have children.
#9
Thankful for lunch out just the two of us
at Olive Garden,
#10
Thankful for another good school day,
#11
Thankful for an absolutely gorgeous cloudless
azure blue sky all day long. So Beautiful.
#12
Thankful that the stranded astronauts are
back on earth and hopefully with their families
by now.
Note: Heard they sent them to Dallas to be
evaluated to make sure they are doing well.
That's it for Cozy Place this week.
Have a lovely day, and thanks for making
us a part of it.............
Love, Hugs, and
Mid March Blessings,
Nellie

Thankful Thursday March 13, 2025, and Birthday Table
“You are worthy, our Lord and God to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.”
Revelation 4:11 NIV
Greetings Sweet Friends,
Hope this finds you doing well, and maybe starting to
enjoy a bit of Spring weather.
It is cooler here at night but fairly warm in the daytime
and all the new growth and new leaves are showing up
everywhere, the grass needs mowing, and our neighbors
large azalea bush is gorgeous, and loaded with hot
pink flowers, so pretty and makes my heart happy
every time I look out our front windows.
Pictures today are of our 3 in one Birthday
Celebration from last weekend here at Cozy Place.
Since the house is still decorated for Winter,
I decided to go with a Winter themed table
as well.
Now on with my thankfuls...

in Savannah last weekend.

Father is doing better. He had a bad case of
RSV flu, and had to go in the hospital on Sun
day evening, but he is doing considerably better
today (Tuesday) and hubby was able to go
visit him, so it seems the meds are working
and he might be able to go home in a few days.
#9
Thankful for a another long chat with my
Daughter. Such a blessing.
#10
Thankful for the Bible which is God's
love letter to us humans. So much good
stuff in there that is helpful to our lives.
He really does know best about what will
make our lives good and worthwhile,
and even better than that, He (God) wants
us to know and have a relationship with
His Son Jesus, so that we will go to live
with Him in heaven when we leave this
earth.........
Because Jesus said I am the way, the Truth
and the Life and no one comes to the Father
accept through me.
John 14:6 NIV
#11
