I think there is much more meaning behind that name. Thank you Julie!

I love the way things work together as God designed them. The wonderful thing is that as women we were made to be able to handle both sides. The Proverbs 31 woman was a perfect example of this. Not that she did everything all at once, it's more of a summary of her life so to speak. I love that she had hobbies and was able to make a living from them to help contribute.

Myrna - Such a lovely thing to say : )

Thank you Myrna, that is so kind of you to say! It's so nice to know that you feel that way.

I feel the same way, Myrna!

Myrna Renoud so justly put ❤️

Thank you for saying that Cheryl!

Thank you Jennifer! That portion was all for you hahaha!

Thank you Debb!

You're so sweet! Thank you for your uplifting words!

Thank you!

Thank you Maria! I'm so glad this inspired you to walk as well, I'm noticing such a difference myself! It's nice to know you enjoy these so much!

I'm so glad I did too!

Thank you Rachel! Walking is such a great way to lose weight. I'm not into a lot of strenuous exercise so it's nice to know walking does the job as well and gets us out of the house.

Thank you Susan!

Thank you for letting me know!

Thank you! I'm happy to hear you're making that a habit! Serving others is so important and thank you for bringing that up. Yes, we have been doing that with the meds to help them with the pain. I hope they do to, looking forward to Jorge building it!

Yes, there's no doubt, it's just expressed differently.

Thank you! I'm so happy to hear this inspired you!

I'm so glad you enjoy the length of these! Thank you! It's good that you can find joy through the pain that comes from loss.

I'm so glad you were able to gain from this!

Thank you for saying that!

Yes, definitely better for both! Thank you Pearl!

I'm happy to hear you enjoyed this so much! Thank you Debbie! I appreciate your words of wisdom. Congratulations to your Molly!

Thank you!

Me too.

I had Invisalign as well! Braces are a whole other story I have found. I'm happy mine didn't require them.

Thank you, I think I mentioned DownEast but if not, that's where it was from. I'm searching the web for the blush one they also sold. I'm kicking myself for not getting it when they had it! Thank you for your encouraging words!

Thank you Jennifer! Hahaha! Ivan said he doesn't care about straight teeth. The pain has subsided though so I'm happy there isn't anymore crying.

Thank you Darian! This DITL will be a regular. I found my channel thrives when I make this style consistently. The kids are doing much better, no complaining :)

That is very true, early morning or evening is best! .....as Jorge is outside working in the heat of the day....Thank you!

Thank you for saying that!

Thank you! I'm trying to work myself out of a job here ;)

That's so nice Kim, what time is the sun rising for you?

I wad wondering if anybody had said anything about watering plants. Its actually better to do it AFTER. The sun goes down. When you water before the sun comes up, as it does rise, it pulls water back up. ( heat ) Your plants get water but not a lot.

Hello and welcome! I'm so glad you love what you see here!

That is the sweetest thing to say, I'm happy you feel that way!

Thank you for saying that Stephanie!

I'm so glad you enjoy these Renee! Yes, there are other family members helping which has been so nice. We each have our own jobs for instance my Mom takes them to their doctor appointments and gets them things from the store, medications etc. My aunt has a lot of things she does as well. This is a small contribution I feel I make but doing what I can to honor them. I am so thankful for our family and how so many are really stepping up in this time of need. Grammy has her ups and downs but she's been doing well too. That's wonderful that you are taking care of your mother. I will be sure to include those things I'm doing differently in an upcoming video.

Thank you Mae! Jennifer is wonderful, I'm happy you found my channel as well!

Thank you Pauline!

I'm so grateful for this time with them. I am the same way, teeth are some of the 1st things we notice!

Thank you!

Thank you Brenda!

Thank you Denise!

Thank you Diana! No, the trampoline didn't survive unfortunately. Another gust took it back into the back yard after the 1st time taking it to the front. More damage the 2nd time. I have some new rings for the time being but they aren't real, just pretty :)

Thank you for saying that, I feel it is my reasonable service.

Hello and welcome! I'm so happy you are here! I prefer dresses and skirts myself, so much more comfortable and beautiful! Yes, that's a great way to put it to him! Thank you for taking the time to watch!

Thank you for your suggestion!

Thank you Nancy! They haven't complained any more which is nice.

Thank you so much Bev!

Thank you Laura! I used a blush gel by Pixi which I found at Target. I think for the most part I dress for my figure. Dressing to conceal those problem areas which many of us have. It's not so much about the number on the scale as feeling good and knowing when my body is stressed because of what I'm consuming and of course not moving enough. I appreciate your kind words.

@@TheLadyoftheHouse I wish we had Target in Canada! We had a store called Zellers which was very similar - a little nicer than Walmart, and I used to do all of our shopping there. Then it was bought by Target, so we had Targets here for about two years, which was fine, then they all went out of business! So now we only really have Walmart, which isn't my favorite, at least the ones near me are always picked over and everything is a mess. I agree with what you are saying about paying attention to how your body feels. I am currently trying to lose a bit of weight, but not so much because of looks, because I don't like the way I feel right now, a little heavy and awkward. I used to be very athletic when I was younger and so I really feel the difference. :)

Thank you Mandy! The kids haven't been complaining at all, all is well thankfully!

Thank you! Yes, softer is my happy place but bold color is much more eye catching and offers a nice contrast. I'm happy you are enjoying these!

Thank you Aurora! Yes, I purchased this ring as a place holder. It's not real but I love the style of it! I found it through Poshmark.

Thank you so much Susan! I can definitely tone up. Things have changed quite a bit in the last couple of years but of course most of it is something only I would notice. The changes I'm making are really improving things and the overall way I'm feeling. I hope you are enjoying your summer as well :)

They are hard to find! I found those placemats at Ross. I'm so glad this inspired you to do that!

Thank you!

Thank you Diana!

Hello and welcome! It's so great to have you here!

Hello and welcome Cassy! It's so great to have you here! That blush is a gel and it's by "pixi by petra". I found it at Target and it's in the color No. 1 Natural. I love it!

Thank you Monique! It is rather hot but I love it. I use lotion daily, year round!

I found them at Walmart years ago. It's by the Pioneer Woman, they may still have them online.

Hello Barbara, if you become a patron you will have access to every video I have posted up to that point. It should charge you for the month right away and you can cancel your membership at any time and then support again at any time. I have had people do that as well.

@@TheLadyoftheHouse THANKS Nikki after doing chores and dinner I will sit down when the house has settled down and read and learn GOD BLESS

I'm happy you are here Elina! I did it suddenly ;) As soon as the alarm went off. I feel if your will is strong, you will. Yes, I loved the book "The Good Wife's Guide" by Darlene Schacht. It's a short read but packed with wonderful information and very motivating!

Early morning risers....that tends to change over time. This summer my kids are wanting to sleep in, it's been nice.

@@TheLadyoftheHouse Thank you for your response and encouragement! Fingers crossed he starts sleeping in more. 😊

Thank you Leslie!

I have gone through seasons where I don't get up very early but I have been much happier being an early riser. It's hard to get control of your body but sticking with one thing, one little change (the soda I decided to cut out) has propelled me to making quite a few healthy changes in my life and I love the control I have gained! Thank you!

Thank you! Dressing for our body type really helps conceal our problem areas ;)

I have shared a little on my Patreon channel but I will be making it part of my "Ladylike Lessons" series. Boatneck tops are lovely as well, and yes, this is great for concealing straps. I appreciate your kind words, thank you!

Thank you Michelle! I wore a normal one with straps, I just made sure to wear them further apart. If the straps are tight enough they stay in place for the most part. I wouldn’t mind wearing a strapless however since it is a more form fitting shirt, the ones I have with straps have a seamless look and don’t dig into my back the way my strapless does which isn’t a desired look.

Thank you! I found those at Kohl's a while back. I think they are by Lauren Conrad, if not then Apt. 9

Thank you! I found those at Ross.

I'm happy to hear that Kellie! I prefer to walk in a midi dress because then wind isn't an issue.

It sure does have a nice ring to it! Where were you when I was deciding on my channel name haha! Thank you, I do it all by keeping God 1st and then some days, I can't do it all too.

@@TheLadyoftheHouse .. 😁 sorry i was late to the party .... since you and Jorge have your own channels maybe you could start a new one by the name i suggested and make it more about your kids, like interviewing them, what is their favorite & least liked parts of their rooms, their opinions on the world as they see it, how they get along, what do they want to be when they grow up & why, what they love most about their parents & grandparents, foods they like & don't like, what have been the funniest moments with Dad. . . Ok i'll stop now, i'm getting carried away. 🤣 Your Mom is a hoot, wish she had her own channel!

Jorge found it on Amazon....I have to look but I’m not there to see it, I’ll share in an upcoming video.

Thank you for your kind words!

No, I want to own a company that makes them.

I care for him and work for him. I talk about everything in previous videos :) I'm so happy that inspired you! It makes a difference for our husbands to get up when they do or a bit before. This is something I read in a "good wife" book a while ago. Such good advice but it's hard to do at 1st and takes discipline. I'd love for you to let me know what differences this makes in your life!

My son is still complaining of pain but he's not acting like he was the first day. I think the first couple of days are the worst. He's having to come to terms with the fact that they are staying in his mouth. He's upset I'm not taking him back to get them removed right now.

@@TheLadyoftheHouse LOL. Yeah, I was trying to find the "right" time to take her and get them put on. There doesn't seem to be one. It's either right before birthday parties, vacations, or school starting. I chose right before a birthday party.

Yes, I do love that neckline although some boatneck tops seem to be cut a bit higher. Yes, the overall fit is what I love and then I found Gal Meets Glam dresses which have that fitted top.

But the neckline and 3/4 sleeve combined in a dress is hard to find!

Las Vegas

@@megansmith3535 Thank you for your reply!

Yes, Las Vegas, NV.

The same as usual, I just push the straps to the side, in a perfect world, we would have bra holds under each top and dress.

@@TheLadyoftheHouse ahhh I see - thanks!!

Yes, I help him start his day each morning and anything he needs me to be his hands and feet for. I have a lot of help from my mom and my aunt as well, so it doesn't all fall on me.

I consider myself a morning gal but I haven't always gotten up this early, this is new because I need to be at my grandparents by 6am and I want to be ready for the day as well as get walking done 1st thing.
