Friday's Fave Five


Huntington Beach California, USA.  One of my favorite places in the world.  I have been going there since I was a small girl and last spring my husband and I got to stay there for 3 days.  This was taken about a mile north of the pier.

Friday's Fave Five.

1. Last week I had cleaned car seats and floor with a cleaner that left a very strong perfume smell.  Each time I got in the car after that, my nose would run, my eyes would water and I would feel terrible.  I am very allergic to perfume.  But this week the smell was much weaker and yesterday there was just a hint of the smell and my allergies were not so bad either but my nose and eyes did itch.  I am so thankful that the smell is going away and I am thankful that the cleaner did a good job on my floors and seats. 

2. My son suffered a head injury in December and was in the hospital for a month.  He has been home for a month and a half and when I saw him this week he was doing much better. He has a ways to go but Andrew Kabala was at our church and he went to hear him speak. God spoke to him to be patient, his healing is coming, and my son felt a warmth in his knee and the back of his head.  My son's neurologist told him to be patient too because he is doing way better than any patient they have had in a long time.  That's God! I am so thankful for my son's progress and God's watchful eye over him.

3. I am thankful for a text I got this past week from one of my grandson's that said "I love you and I miss you." I was so happy about that text that I arranged to pick him up before school and take him to breakfast.  It was a morning of wonderful conversation.  I do love that boy. Later that same day I went to pick up his cousins, as I do every Wednesday after school.  Only one of them was coming home that day.  The two older ones had after school clubs.  So that afternoon I got to spend time with my youngest grandson.  Both of these boys are handsome and interesting boys.  I am thankful to have one on one time with them.

4. I am thankful that the days are getting warmer.  It is still not warm enough for short sleeves and sandals but it is warm enough for sweaters, and to stand in the sunshine and soak up rays feels so good to the bones.

5. I am thankful that today I get to spend some time celebrating a good friend.  Her birthday was on January 31st but things kept happening so we never got to celebrate. Today we will celebrate and visit for a long while.

    Hi Susan and welcome to Friday's Fave Five! Nice to have you join us! I left a comment in my comments last week for you because I couldn't see an email button for you. I can help with how to link your post into the Linky so that others can come and read your posts too, if you like. Just email me. My email is in my profile.

    That must have been very scary for you all when your son received a head injury. Praise God he is doing he is doing well and on the road to recovery. What a sweet txt to receive from your grandson. Some of those cleaners are so strong in smell. Glad the scent is finally starting to dissipate out of your car. Celebrating friends is always a blessing.

  On Fridays we post 5 things about the week that were a blessing. It is hosted by  Susanne at  Living to Tell the Story ~~~ This one, Titus, will be 10 soon.  He and I spend Wednesday afternoons together. He does homework, get a snack and we watch Sponge Bob or Phineas and Ferb, then we cook dinner before the rest of the family comes home.   He is so smart and cooks like he is much older. My Friday's Fave Five are: #1. See above.  I love that boy and I am so glad he is not interested yet in after school clubs.  We get to spend the time I never got when he was a baby.  His Mom worked while the two older ones were between birth and 5 years.  I got to love on them for her, but with Titus she stayed home.  I feel very blessed to have this time with him now. #2.  I had lunch with my son yesterday and he is doing so good.  God is healing him and he is now going to volunteer at the hospital.  This ...

Friday's Fave Five

  I love Fridays when I get to post my favorite five things or blessings about the week.  There are always more than five so it is sometimes hard to pick. To see others who participate go to Living to Tell the Story and click on the respondents in the comments.  Many of them participate. 1. From last Friday night to yesterday I was sick.  It was a flu and a sinus infection, but thankfully not the flu. Yesterday I got to go to my son's new house.  We were outside most of the time so I was not having to stay a long way away from my grands and son.  2.  Even though everything is shut down I am blessed to go to a church that has can post all services online.  I got to enjoy our Women Rock Bible Study online .  It was so good. 3.  I may have spent most of my vacation at home sick but I still have 4 more days that I can go do something now that I am feeling much, much better. 4.  I have some sewing to do and have been doing s...

Friday's Fave Five

  https://susannesspace.blogspot.com/   Click this link to see the host and others who participate in Friday's Fave Five.  This picture is of my dear friend Lucy who went to be with the Lord just a few days after Christmas.  In fact just a minute after learning my son was being air lifted to Loma Linda Hospital I received a call from one of the Reverends at our church telling me she has died.   Why such a sad memory on a day when I am to tell my Fave Fives of the week? 1. Friends.  I love my friends (sisters in Jesus) so much and have a wonderful week of zoom meetings where I have had the blessing of talking to many of them.  I have had text messages, phone calls, and chats on Face Book.  The best thing is that we talk of Jesus and how present He has been in our lives during this time.  Lucy was a wonderful sister in the Lord and I thought of her a bit this week.  I talked with her daughter by text and we cri...
