Good Sunday Morning
Sweet Friends,
Here are the verses for today!
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of
eating and drinking, but of righteousness,
peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,
because anyone who serves Christ in
this way is pleasing to God and receives
human approval. Let us therefore
make every effort to do what leads
to peace and to mutual edification.
Romans 14:17-19 NIV
Have a Peaceful, and edifying week!
Hugs,
Nellie

Praise be to God, who has not rejected
my prayer or withheld his love from me!
Psalm 66:20 NIV
Greetings Sweet Friends,
Hope this finds you well and happy!
Been a good week here with some
moments of angst about the Covid
diagnosis for our Potus and Flotus
and others in our Government.
Happy for the way it turned out.
Pictures today are from Fall
decorating 2020.
So on with my Thankfuls.....
#1
Very Thankful to hear
Pres. Trump and Melania are doing
really well,..... as well as all the
other people that got it. Haven't
heard of any of them getting a bad
case. Most had very light symptoms
or were asymptomatic. The only
one that had to go to the hospital
besides the President was Chris
Christie, but that was more of
a caution thing because he had
pre-existing asthma.
#2
Thankful we were invited to attend
a baby shower of a lovely young lady
that we have had the privilege of being
a part of her life for about 15 yrs. or so.
Her Mom did such a wonderful job
and everything was just beautiful, and
it was well attended, as she is so loved
by so many. I think she probably got
almost everything she needs for the
new baby girl to come..
#3
Thankful for a nice time going out for
Mexican food and hanging out with our
Son later on, after the baby shower.
It was another day without masks.
Loved it!!
#4
Thankful for a lovely table decoration
her Mom sent us home with as a
thank you for helping out. Since
it looks more like Spring, I decided
to add some white baby boo's to it
so it would sort of blend in with
all my other Fall things.You can
see it below.
#5
Thankful that we were able to find the
video of last weeks Prayer March and
watch it on Sunday. It was so worth
watching and participating........I believe
we are gonna see the Lord respond to
all these prayers that have gone up and
keep going up from this video.

Thankful for a song that we have never
heard before called "Earth to God"
by John Rich. Great Song!

#7
Thankful once again for "Better Together",
a talk show on TBN. They were talking
about Spiritual gifts this morning, and
one of the ladies Havilah, made the state-
ment about people who know the Lord,
that because we are God's Children
and we have his spirit living in us,
we are annointed and equipped for
whatever comes our way each day.
What a great reminder for when we
feel overwhelmed, underequipped,
afraid or unsure of ourselves.
By the way, that was my gist of
it, not a verbatim quote from her.
#8
Thankful for a dear Christian lady
who was such a role model to me as
a young girl and teen. Her name is
Mrs.Thomas
and she was my next door neighbor
from the time I was 6-17 yrs. old.
I practically lived at her house and
was best friends with her daughter
who was the same age as me. She
is the #1 reason I am a Christ
follower today, as she lived such
a Godly life, I wanted whatever
she had.....and I knew it had
to do with God, so that was
what I wanted for my life.
I just heard on Sat. that Mrs.
Thomas went home to be with
Jesus. I have never forgotton,
nor will I ever forget all the
fond memories I have of her
nor all the things I learned
from her life.
#9
Thankful we finally had a chance
to talk with my friend, Janet who
went to the DC March and to
hear all about it.
Sounded Wonderful, and they
didn't encounter any protesters
of any kind.
#10
Thankful for a great idea the
Lord gave me this morning for
a project to do with lil darling.
Shopping and packing a box
for a lil girl her age for
Samaritans Purse Operation
Christmas Child.
#11
Thankful that the new season
of "Heartland" came out. It's
taken a while, but it's sort of
like visiting old friends since
we have watched every Season
and episode over the years. If you
have never watched it....it is a
really great series. The new
Season we found on the Hall-
mark channel.
#12
Thankful that lil darling is having
a great time playing with her Dad's
old lego sets that we saved so he
could have them for his kids. He
sent me a picture of something
they built tonight. So cute!!
Well, that's our week at
Cozy Place......
Hope you have a really lovely weekend.
Thanks for stopping in...............
Love, Hugs and October Blessings,
Nellie

Happy Sunday Sweet Friends,
Here is the scripture for today!
Let them praise the name of the LORD,
for his name alone is exalted; his splendor
is above the earth and the heavens.
Psalm 148:13
Welcome to October
Sweet Friends......
Can you believe it....less than 2 mos.
until Christmas......Amazing how this
year just seems to have flown by.
Been a busy and productive week
around here I am happy to say.....
I have gone back to list making
and it is amazing how that helps
me stay on track. Otherwise,
we are just flying by the seat
of our pants....LOL
Pictures today are from Fall's past....
On with my Thankfuls..............
#1
Watched "the return" last Friday night
and all day Saturday. In case you don't know
what it is, it was also a prayer event that
was going on at the same time the Prayer
March was happening in Washington D.C.
It was so wonderful to see so many
prayers going up for our nation and to be
able to agree in prayer at home. They left
no rock un turned either, they prayed
about everything you could think of, which
was just so neat.................So our country and
even others were well covered.
A very amazing event.
We thought they would show some of
the prayer walk but never did see any-
thing about it unfortunately......and we
definitely saw nothing in the news
about either event.........Shocking!
#2
Thankful for the new supreme court
choice President Trump has selected.
She seems like a Wonderful choice.
#3
Thankful for the cute things I found
for a baby shower this coming weekend.
#4
Thankful for lunch out on Sunday
just hubby and I, to Longhorns.
Also for extra shrimp hubby got
due to a mistake on my food.
#5
Thankful for a visit from a younger
friend that we have not seen in
months (talked to tho). It was great
to see her and catch up on life
together.
#6
Thankful that I finally had time
to make some sympathy cards
I have been needing to make,
and a baby card for upcoming
baby shower.
#7
Thankful to get a gift ordered that
needed to be ordered too.
#8
Thankful hubby finally was able to go
for an eye appt and to get glasses,
he hasn't ever had to wear any
prescription glasses before, only
readers, but his vision has changed
a bit so hopefully this will fix the
problem, if not it might mean
cataract surgery.
#9
Thankful it was 68 degrees this
morning so we took to the porch
again. So lovely out! I think
our high is 78 today which is
really nice here. (Wed)
#10
Thankful we had lil darling all
day today, as she is out of school
cause one of the teachers got covid
so they closed school this week and
next week but next week is Fall
break anyway, so it was a good time
if it had to happen, then hopefully they
will be able to resume in a few weeks.
Course, no one knows for sure yet.
#11
Thankful that we were able to
have breakfast on the porch and
open our windows for a while for
some fresh air today. (Thursday)
#12
Thankful that "My Faith Votes" is
doing a Think, Pray, and Vote present-
ation with Kirk Cameron again. We went
to one in 2016 that was in theatres
all across America, and it was awesome,
everyone was praying for the country
at the same time and we both found it to
be very helpful. No one is telling you who
to vote for, but they encourage you
to vote, and to vote prayerfully based
on the issues.
In case you are interested:
The rally is 2 weeks in a row, and
on Friday Oct 2nd and 9th, 2020
on Trinity Broadcasting network
at 8 P.M.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, this has been our week
at Cozy Place.
Thanks for dropping by
and
Hope you have a stellar rest
of the week.
Love, Hugs, and
!st of October Blessings,

Greetings Sweet Friends,
How are you?? Some of you are probably
enjoying Fall weather already, and know
you must be delighted about that.
Our early morning are a bit cooler,
so happy about that. We are fine.....
just late again...........So gonna let the
post speak for itself.
Has anyone found a quicker way
to add pictures with this new format.
It was even worse this time, cause it
would only let me do one picture
at a time.
Pictures today are from our Fall mantle.
This was the window and Fall wreath
I mentioned a few posts ago.
In the daytime!
So on with my Thankfuls..............
#1
Thankful that our cell phones are
once again working well and we
were able to keep our phones with
our new cell service..Yay!!
#2
Thankful that hubby was able to
fix our ice maker. It was making
this banging noise because it was
all iced up. Mr. Fix it does it again!!
#3 and 4
Thankful that Fall has finally
arrived and it actually seemed like
a Fall day today.....but that will
probably change tomorrow, but
I will take what I can get.........lol
Thankful that is was cool enough
on the first day of Fall to sit on the
porch. What a delightful treat!!
It was only 80, but overcast and
cloudy and breezy.
So nice after not being able to sit
out there for more than 5 mins.
in the summer.........
Our Night time look!
#5
Thankful for a dear longtime
friend, Vicki, today is her birthday.
She is more like a sister really, and
has always been such a great mentor
and friend.
#6
Thankful for my paternal Grand-
mother, as today would have been
her birthday as well, but she has been
spending her birthdays with Jesus
for about 31 yrs. now. She was a
sweetie............
#7
Thankful that hubby found this
yummy blackberry cobbler at
Walmart, and it was made by Patti
LaBelle. It is really delicious!
Our first Fall dessert, love it!!
#8
Thankful for a previous church
member/friend, that moved away years
ago, and that we got reaquainted again
thru blogging, and we reconnect every
so often when she comes and goes
with blogging.....and now she is back to
blogging again, which was great to hear
from her again. Much to my joy, she just
got 5 of our free cards off our website.
I actually got to talk to her on the
phone, which was neat, so we got to
catch up some and now have each other
numbers so we can text or call. She was
also quite happy with the cards and said
it made life easier for her as she didn't
have a lot of places nearby to buy cards.
So that was a blessing to hear!
#9
Thankful that I finally finished my Fall
decorating today (Wed). Yeah!! Now we
can just enjoy it, so nice to have a new look.
#10
Thankful that I heard from my cousin
this week, and that his son, that I don't
really know that well, is doing fine.
He lives in Oregon and was near one
of the fires but is okay other than bad
air quality and no electricity for
a few days.
#11
Thankful for a fun time with lil darling
and our son having dinner, and putting
together her new toy cubicle and just
hanging out. So nice to be out of the
house and somewhere we don't have
to wear a mask. Yeah for that!!
#12
Thankful to see on Friday that our
governor has lifted more limitations
on resturants and they can go to
full capacity now, as well as other
restrictions, still have to wear masks
tho, I guess, but at least we are
moving in the right directions, and
and they will be keeping a close
watch on the covid figures.
Well, that is our week at Cozy Place.
Hope you have a good weekend and
that you are where it is cooler.........
Love, Hugs, and
end of October Blessings,
Nellie
