Thankful Thursday October 9, 2025, more Fall decor Part 4

Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, 

that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.

Hebrews 13:15 NIV

Hello  Sweet Friends,

Hope this finds you doing better

 than I am. It has been a very

 rough week for me, as I have been

having some back issues that have been far worse, than any I have 

ever had before.  In fact, I am typing this standing up in my kitchen at the counter where hubbies set

up his laptop for me so I could at least check my email and

other things, as I have been trying

 not to sit at the computer as that seemed to make things worse. It is 5:45 a.m. and I haven't slept a wink as I am just in too much pain and can not get comfortable, no matter what I do...........the last few nights I had taken ibuprophen and slept really well,  but was trying to not take it so I could tell how I really was without it in the morning, as today one side  of my lower back was better than the other, so thought I was on the way to healing, but

hoping to get an appt. with a new to me, chiropractor,  that a good

friend recommended. I feel it is sacroiliac problems,  as I have had

that before, and have tried some stretches and stuff which did

help some. This has been going on

since last Friday, but by Monday

it really was curtailing my activities, then seemed to be better 

on Tuesday, and  Wed. until later

 in the day. This has been the worst

day, cause just could not get comfortable  so Really hoping to get in to see the Chiropracter

tomorrow, well today actually.

Pictures today are of some Fall

touches to my kitchen. Couldn't do

much else, but was able to take

a few pictures, and right now

my back feels better standing

here typing, that trying to sit or

lay down.  lol  Probably not

the greatest pics either.

So on with my Thankfuls...

#1

Thankful for a sweet visit with

 our  Son and lil darling Thursday evening.  I wasn't feeling real great

 but after a nap and some food,  I

felt good enough to have them over for awhile.  They always lift my spirits.

#2

Thankful this is the first day

my Daughter has felt good since

her surgery.  Have to say she

did really well, and it wasn't

quite as bad as we thought it

would be, but a lot of soreness

for sure.  She went back for

recheck with Dr. today and he

felt all was good and she still

needs to take at easy for awhile.

  So Thankful for that.

#3

Thankful for family and friends

who have been praying and 

checking in on me, as I have been

laid up with my back for 5 days

now.  I am better but definitely

not there yet.

I love this lil printable I found online somewhere,  I think it's adorable and a bright

spot everytime I come in my kitchen.  If you made it please let me know so I can give 

credit where credit is due..................

#4-10

Thankful for prayers, our

reclining sofa, heating pad, 

alleve and ibuprophen, and

most of all my sweet hubby

who has been so helpful and

good to me.  Also, for our sweet

Son, who was gonna come and

 bring dinner but we had already 

eating earlier than normal, but

he and lil darling came by to

visit for a lil while, which ws

a mood brightener, and for my

sweet Daughter who is recovering

herself, said she could send

me so icy hot via insta-cart 

from  South Carolina. lol

So sweet!! but reminded me I

could use the heating pad!!

Did you know you can do that?

I didn't until 3 yrs ago, when

she did it when we all went

 away to the beach for my 70th birthday, she ordered groceries

from Publix and had them

 delivered to the condo .what a handy

and wonderful thing that is.

#11

Thankful we got to have lil

darling for schooling this week.

Grampy does most of the teaching

anyway, and fortunatley she didn't

have work in one of the classes 

and I was able to do the bible

lesson from the sofa.  lol

She is as sweet as ever, and was

such a bright spot for this

 furloughed  Grammy.

#12

Thankful I have an appt. with

a chiropractor for tomorrow.

YAY,......So happy about that........... 

Well, That's it for this week.

Thanks for coming by

and

Have a lovely weekend,

Love, Hugs and almost

Mid October Blessings,

Nellie
