I have collected a few notes for the next homemakers support video and as soon as I have everything in order I hope to try out my new/old refurbished computer and record a talk.
In the meantime I am sharing a few photos from the home view. It is harvest here and there is noise all day and all night with the beautiful farm machinery. It’s interesting to see what’s new each year and what the machines do.
I have my re-furbished computer up and going and still need a few things ironed out (figure of speech: (fos).
The videos were much easier than script so I may do a few more of them. Included will be household hints, family things, home values, and much more.
I will read my book aloud but put it on a separate play list.
Today will be spent getting some things straightened out here at The Manse and preparing for the busy weekend.
I hope to see everyone here soon. Thank you for telling me what all you accomplished while listening to the homemaker support videos. That is what I want to know. I decided not to do a livestream because it requires people stop and look at the screen.
I plan to post a list of the Homemaker Support videos on the sidebar so you can see them easily.
For my next video to listen while sit or work, it would be very helpful if you would list in comments some questions and comments to discuss, similar to livestream. That way I can talk about it without it requiring you watching the screen if you are busy.
Hello Dear Ladies. Yes I hear you about the poor quality of the picture. I’m using a computer "from the olden times” and so my face will look strange with shadows and light and fuzziness in all the wrong places. I considered deleting this video and trying again, however, if you were sitting across the table with me I couldn’t edit it anyway. I designed this series to listen to while you work. So, please leave a comment stating all the things you accomplished while I was talking. Also please mention anything I said here that caught your attention. Tell me what all you accomplished while I talked.
One correction: our Mutual Friend was written by Charles Dickens, not Elizabeth Gaskell. My apologies to Charles and Elizabeth.
When you hear me say "Mary McFadden" please translate that to "Mary Quant". It was Mary Quant who invented the mini skirt. My apologies to Mary McFadden.
It was hard to find old photos of people inside the church services as most of the church photos were outside.
We have acapella music at church so I always like to hear the parts with the male & female voices. It is some of the purest music; it plucks the strings of the voice: Prepare to tear up a little as you hear this:
(Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.)
Lyrics
1. Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish;
Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel.
Here bring your wounded hearts; here tell your anguish.
Earth has no sorrow that heav'n cannot heal.
2. Joy of the desolate, Light of the straying,
Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure!
Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying,
"Earth has no sorrow that heav'n cannot cure."
3. Here see the Bread of Life; see waters flowing
Forth from the throne of God, pure from above.
Come to the feast of love; come, ever knowing
Earth has no sorrow but heav'n can remove.
I thought I would show some ladies church clothes too, which from pinterest:
This video discusses ideas for the home, as well as the homemaker's attitude, particularly those who hear pessimistic remarks.
This speech is created to hear while you are occupied with various chores at home.
Here is the music I referred to:
Here are more verses. I highlighted the words I quoted:
My Jesus, as Thou wilt! Oh, may Thy will be mine!
Into Thy hand of love I would my all resign;
Through sorrow, or through joy, conduct me as Thine own,
And help me still to say, “My Lord, Thy will be done.”
My Jesus, as Thou wilt! If needy here and poor,
Give me Thy people’s bread, their portion rich and sure; The manna of Thy Word Let my soul feed upon;
And if all else should fail, my Lord, Thy will be done.
My Jesus, as Thou wilt! Though seen through many a tear,
Let not my star of hope grow dim or disappear;
Since Thou on earth hast wept, and sorrowed oft alone,
If I must weep with Thee, my Lord, Thy will be done.
My Jesus, as Thou wilt! All shall be well for me;
Each changing future scene I gladly trust with Thee:
Straight to my home above I travel calmly on,
And sing, in life or death, “My Lord, Thy will be done.”
Hello Ladies, after a 9 day absence, while I attempted to organize my notes and get smarter, (which I never accomplished) I am back with a talk about the home. This video is designed to keep you company while you do something at home.
In a few days I’ll be transferring to a different computer that has a functioning keyboard. If you thought the letter “ e” was the most used letter of the English language, try doing without the letter “n”. I get very creative looking for substitutes for words like “comments “ and word endings of “ing.”
I am using my phone right now but it is not as convenient to blog with.
The purple thing is a clay rose necklace that matches my dress, made by one of my grandchildren and has a white stretch string. This video has some ideas to hear while you work. Please leave a remark to share what all you did while it played.
Here are the products I used for my face today. For a moisturizer I used a Vit. E capsule mixed with a drop of Grapeseed oil.
I made a powder also, from rice flour & cocoa powder to give a soft coverage over it all. It sure had a nice scent but it made me hungry!
Wet & Wild Rose Ivory
Megalast Violet
Rosewater setspray
All a dollar each at Dollar Tree; slightly higher at Walmart or other stores.
