Thankful Thursday November 20, 2025, and Fall Florals


Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:6-7 NV



Greetings Sweet Friends,

Wow, only a week until Thanksgiving,

can you believe it.....

Hope you are doing well and getting

ready for next week.  Always a lovely

time with family.

I am coming along still, not quite there

yet, but doing oh so much better!!

These things take time, and pacing of

strength and energy!  Doing my best

to trust the Lord that we will be ready

especially for Christmas, cause our girl

and boy from South Carolina and our

furry grandson Dog will be here!!

He has never let us down before!!

Now on with my Thankfuls............




#1

Thankful we got to pick lil darling up from school and

spend some time with her,  and she will be here again

tomorrow to do her school work with us.



#2

Thankful I was able to drive today with

 no problems.  







#3

Thankful our Daughter and Son-in-love went up to  their lake house for a long weekend. I Have seen on facebook pics from up there where people have seen the Northern lights.  So hoping that get to see them.



#4


Thankful for another trip to the Chiro Dr.

and lil darling went with us, then we took her

home to her Dad, since she had volley call

practice.  Always fun to have her with us,

and thankful to one step closer to being

done with the pinched nerve issue.






#5

Thankful that afterwards, we went to TJ Maxx

 and looked around, it was so full of goodies

and people. Stayed a few hours till I just got

 so tired and sore all of a sudden, so had to

 leave. We were hoping to go out to dinner,

 but just wasn't up to it.



#6

Thankful that we decided to just order

soup and salad from Olive Garden. It

 made for the perfect Friday night, so

Jumped in my jammies, ate on TV trays

and watched a good Christmas movie

Called "Christmas Time Capsule" on

"Up Faith and Family"





#7

Thankful for a lovely surprise visit on Saturday

 from some long time Vietnamese friends who are

 about 20 yrs. younger than us. He used to work with

 my hubby when he was single and spent quite a few

 holidays with our family. Then the Co. he and hubby

 worked at closed and he got married to a

 really lovely girl and then they moved about an hour 

or more away, so we have kept touch via phone,

text and email and have seen them a few

 times, and can't believe they are now empty nesters.

 So it was such a delight to see them as they are just

 the sweetest kids, and wow, do they have a God

story.  We are just so proud of them.....

It was truly a blessed afternoon.




#8

Thankful to be back in church today as it has been about 6 weeks. It really was so good to be there in person, as we have been watching online since this pinched nerve situation. I am a bit sore, so about to relax and use my heating pad!!  lol

It was so good to see everyone!!




#9

Thankful we got some take out from Tijuana flats, 

 it was really yummy, as we haven't had anything

 from there in a long time. Quite Satisfying!!


#10

Thankful for a couple of more Christmas movies 

we watched.  They were both so good. One

was called " 








#11

Thankful we got to have lil darling for schooling

today, and to spend some time with.  She is such

a gift and always a bright spot in our day.


#12

Thankful we got our family room furniture

moved around yesterday, so we can put our

faux tree up, so we will be ready for Christmas

decorating on Friday after Thanksgiving.

Gives us a lil jump on things!











That's it for Cozy Place this week.

This is the 6th Edition of the Pinched nerve series.

Thanks for spending some time with us,

Have a Bright and Beautiful Weekend

Thankful Thursday November 13, 2025, and Fall desserts



Serve the Lord with gladness; Come before His presence with singing. Know that the Lord, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
Psalm 100:2-3 NIV


Greetings Sweet Friends,
Hope this finds you well and happy
and enjoying some cooler weather.
I am feeling so much better and
more like myself again. I still have
another month of Chiropractic care
twice a week, but making ground
every day,  Praise the Lord.

On with my Thankfuls.....



#1

Thankful for our Sweet and Smart Son

and what a wonderful Dad he is to 

lil darling..........

and Thankful we got to celebrate his

birthday with him and lil darling.  It

was a lil different this year because I

couldn't make his birthday dinner or

go out, but we just got take out and made

it a bit easier,  but think he enjoyed it

just the same......and it was a special

blessing to all of us, as we hadn't seen

each other in a month, which seemed

like a year to me!!  lol





#2

Thankful that I am doing so much better,

Have been up more and able to do some of

 my normal routine things again, but still

 have to be careful not to set that nerve off

 again. Dr. says to be careful of twisting

 and bending.


#3

Thankful to be sleeping in our bed most

of the time this week.  A real treat!! lol





#4

Thankful that Friday was our

55th Anniversary.  

We of course, didn't plan anything

cause I am not wanting to sit on any

thing hard till I can find a cushion

to take with me,  plus they were bringing

us dinner from the meal train as well.

So I was teasing that my Chiropractor 

visit was my Anniversary Gift,  lol

Hubby did get me more beautiful orange

roses and a lovely card. Love them, and

we did watch a 56 yr. old movie, that

we saw on our first blind date together.

"Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid."

and our song, from that movie became

 "Raindrops keep falling on my head"

 from B.J. Thomas




#5 

Thankful that after my chiro appt.

yesterday we had to look for big bandaids

for hubbies back where he had the cyst

removed, so we went to Target. Cannot

tell you how much fun that was after

not going in a store of over a month, 

and it's been way longer than that for

going to Target.  They were playing

Christmas music and had a lot of 

Christmas things out and we didn't 

even got thru the whole store cause

we had to be home by 4, and we ran

into our lunch buddy friends so were

talking with them for awhile and I

was getting sore, so we had to go,

but the was just such a bright spot

in our Day!




#6

Thankful and Amazing to me

 how something as small and short

 as that was, but what it did for

 my spirit, and can't even say

 my spirit was low cause they

really weren't, but it just spoke fun

to my spirit anyway!!

Can't wait to go back again!!  lol




#7

Thankful that our daughter sent us

an Anniversary card, from our shop,

via phone........and it was a card I 

made, but it was as tho someone else

made it, that was just so surreal to

me, and so sweet, and they also sent

 us a restaurant gift card as well.

Also our Pastor must have heard

and he sent us a text to let us know

he was praying for us and wished us

happy Anniversary,.  Love how the

Lord uses seemingly small things to

bless our hearts........and how He 

really does work in mysterious ways.


#8

Thankful for a nice long chat with

my Daughter.




#9

Thankful for a sweet video from lil darling

this morning telling me about an answer

she wrote about the Chronicles of Narnia.

  That was a first of many I hope.

It was funny cause I was just about to

try and call her because I had a funny

dream about her and her lil dog Lola

that I wanted to share with her.



#10

Thankful that the Dr. said I can pretty

much do my normal routine things now,

just I need to be careful twisting or bending.

Think I will still need theraphy for 2X a week 

for another month, then they will re-evaluate

me. Starting to do a lil bit of stretching

 exercises and more walking as well.

Getting there,  slow but sure!!  lol





#11

Thankful to be able to make my first

batch of Beef Stew for the season.

Smelling yummy,  can hardly wait

to have some. We are 48 degrees

right now,  and loving it.


Note: Have to say the Beef Stew was

so so good, and I wound up making

 some Chili last night for today, I only 

make both dishes most of the time in

 Fall/Winter. Which keeps them special

 and fun to look forward to.......


#12

Thankful that my devotional took me

to John chapter 14 this morning, and

I love it was the words of Jesus, so I

read thru chapter 17.  Love reading

His words (in red letters in my bible)

It is just so encouraging and reassuring.





Well, that's it for Cozy Place this week.

This is the 5th post in the Pinched Nerve
Edition.

Glad you could stop by today!

Have a Brrr weekend 

Love, Hugs, and
Mid November Blessings

Thankful Thursday October 6, 2025, and Pumpkins pictures


Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.
Psalm 100:4






Greetings Sweet Friends,

and Belated Welcome to November.........


Wow, Thanksgivng is right around 

the corner, my only thoughts about

 it so far, is what can we do if I am

 still not up to doing Thanksgiving

din din.  Since I am feeling better,

 guess, I better start thinking about

what I can do, just maybe an easier

 version. There will only 5 of us, 

since our SC kids can't be here till

 Christmas.



Pictures today are of pumpkins..........

just because I love them!!






So on with my Thankfuls......



#1

Thankful for 2 more  trips to the Chiropractor which makes me 2 step closer to being well.  Course, the day afterwards doesn't necessarily feel that way cause I am so sore, but then the next day is better, so I am coming along.


#2

Thankful that I am no longer using the walker and all

seems to be going well..........for the last 6 days.  YAY!





#3

Thankful for the lovely post roast and veggie dinner a

friend from our church brought tonight.  Every bite was

delicious and her pot roast reminded me of my Mom's.

Also nice to get to visit with her for a short while too,

so that was very nice.



#4

Thankful that our kids are having a fun time in South 

Carolina, and my daughter fills me in on what they

are doing at times,  which is sweet.  Cause would so

love to be there, as you can imagine!!




#5

Thankful to really be enjoying the cooler weather,

So refreshing from all that heat, still getting

to 80 later in the day, but it's still great.


#6

Thankful for all the people the Lord has used

to help us during this time, from prayer warriors,

to family members, to Drs., to friends bearing

 food or phone calls and texts.  It has all

been such a blessing during this time.




#7

Thankful that after I started this post

and was talking about Thanksgiving,

hubby and I put our heads together

and came up with an easy Thanks-

giving dinner plan. So it will be easy

and delicious, and if we want to add

to it, we could do that too, if we want.


#8

Thankful for these cool fall days

for ever how long they last.  We 

opened all our windows and doors

and let in all the cool fresh air.

It was wonderful!!

and we sat out of the porch as well.









#9
Thankful hubby was able to get out and mow 
the lawn, since he isn't having to tend to
 me constantly. He has truly been amazing
in his care for me.




#10
Thankful that our Son and lil darling got back
 from SC safe and sound and that they all had
 a great time together as always.











#11
Thankful hubby had his cyst removed
this week, and it went well,  he has been
in pain the day of and the day after
was better, but as the day wore on it
was worse, hopefully tomorrow it will
much better. 


#12
Thankful to hear from some of our best long 
time friends,  that their Son who is in his 
40's is getting married, and they really 
love their new Daughter in love to be. 
 So happy for him and them. 


#13
Thankful to run into the grown up Daughter
 of an old friend today when we ran into 
the grocery store for a few mins. (My 1st 
outing to anywhere but the chiro's office. lol)
Haven't see her for years.......so it was a delight.
She is beautiful and sweet just like her Mom,
  and she has a 10 and l4 yr. old.  Oh My,
 how the years do pass.  Could hardly believe that.





Well that's it for Cozy Place this week.

  This is the 4th in the 
series of the pinched nerve edition.


Glad you could drop by and visit.


Have a Cool and Wonderful Fall Weekend.


Love, Hugs and
