Thankful Thursday Friendly Fill In's

 Thankful Thursday

Quick and simple Thankful Thursday - thankful for the healing in our house with colds, and sinus and asthma attacks. Thankful for all the delicious juice and smoothies we had to help us heal. Thankful that I was able to get better simply by doing all the old school things my mom did when I was a kid. Rest, Hydrate, Vicks, Juice, Steaming my face. It worked than and it still works today! I also used my essential oils for my headache and not only does it smell so good it goes a long way to control headache pain.

Several people that I know personally have healed things like eczema, sciatica, insomnia Using natural things like fruits and veggies and eating healthier.

Thankful to have knowledge to use all these things. I look back on my childhood when my mom made us take Castor Oil! Oh that awful stuff, but it gave us good health and mom always knew best.. When I had my children I called my mom first before the doctor. I had a friend who was advised by her pediatrician to lock her daughter in her room so she could not get out and let her cry herself to sleep at night. I asked her how many kids he had she replied, oh he doesn't, he's single! who you going to listen to, your mom who raised you right or some goofy doctor who read a text book!? Oh that doctor, he dated one of my great cousins who was a nurse, last I heard of him, he couldn't make a marriage commitment either.

and Isaiah said,  take a lump of figs, and let them take and lay it on the boil, that he may recover. 2 Kings 20:7

Other examples of using natural things to heal Psalm 51:7 

7 Purge me with hyssops, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. 8 Make me to her joy and gladness, that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. 9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine  iniquities.

NASB Then their father Israel said to them, "If it must be so, then do this: take some of the best products of the land in your bags, and carry down to the man as a gift, a little balsam and a little honey, labdanum resin and myrrh, pistachio nuts and almonds,  Genesis 43:11

FRIENDLY FILL IN'S

Ellen and her co host Lorianne each think of two of the sentences to share here. Please join the fun and answer these questions. I will be back tomorrow to answer mine.

1. Always love your favorite people and pets. 

2. My plans for September include  going to the Chili Fest and getting chilies to freeze for the wintertime.

3.  Ordering groceries ahead of time and picking them up or having them delivered makes life a little easier.

4.  Things of this world really complicates things. People begin to find fault with others. Everyone wants their opinion to matter but they don't want to hear yours.

Here is some really good advice today: 

Pink Saturday

This Pinterest pink house find is located in Oakland(California) I presume. The person who snapped the photo started to snap photos and collect pink buildings, apartments, houses.  I am not sure I would like those steep steps but otherwise this house is super cute. I would love to peek inside.

THANKFUL THURSDAY FRIENDLY FILL IN'S

Thankful Thursday 

Today I am thankful for the long friendship at this blog with Edna Barron. Edna last blogged in September 2022. I kept checking her blog and of course, knew she must have passed away. A Brit in Tennessee confirmed it saying Edna passed away February 2, 2023.  My heart hurts for the loss of this lovely lady. My biggest regret was she always wanted to help me create a blog book and I just never had the money to do it. She was upbeat and funny. She made me a few Afghans for two of our great grands who were preemies. She was always doing things for others. It was just who she was. 

These cute Yorkies were at Pinterest and most of them were quilting squares. Oh how Edna would have loved that. When she lost her best fur baby Pogo I think it truly broke her heart. She gave that lil fellow the best life he could live after being abused and found in a shelter. She lived for him and he had the life of a lil Yorkie king, special beds and blankets and Edna cooked special meals just for him.  So this is a tribute to my beautiful friend. I am going to miss sending her the Yorkie Calendar each year as I had been accustom to. She sent me beautiful calendars she made with Pogo through the years. He was so important to her . She loved all her children, the grand children and great grands. I hope she is shining down smiling at all of us who knew her and enjoying the heavens with those she loved who went before her. Rest Easy my beautiful friend.

• "Honoring a friend's death is truly about honoring their life. Despair over what may have been, but revel and reflect in what was."

THANKFUL THURSDAY

 Six Little Stories With Lots of Meaning

1. Once all villagers decided to pray for rain. On the day of the prayer, all people gathered, but only one little boy came with his imbrella. That is faith.

2. When you throw babies in the air, they laugh because they know you will catch them. That is trust.

3. Every night we go to bed without any assurance of being alive the next morning, but we still set the alarms to wake us up. That is hope.

4. We plan big things for tomorrow in spite of zero knowledge of the future. That is confidence.

5. We see the world suffering, but still, we get married and have children. That is love.

6. On an old man's shirt was written a sentence  " I am not old; I am sweet 16 with 64 years experience." That is attitude.
