My Mission
Of course, it doesn't matter what you wear, whether you work or not, or if you choose to stay single or marry. It all boils down to your purpose in life, having that "servants' heart" the bible speaks of, and having the right attitude. And also what bearing we have on people in our lives, and even ones we don't know. Join me and explore some of the traditional feminine ways, occupations, pastimes and the domestic arts of women, wives and mothers, throughout history, and how we can blend it into our modern ways of life, somewhat.

Having a PlanHaving a Plan! Just a simple little 9 page booklet about having a daily plan for housework, and the motivation to get things moving.
Available for purchase on Amazon I was basically testing the app to see what format I needed to publish a real book. I don't understand a lot of the names, and things about certain programs like Word, pdf, etc. 😅 But it turned out okay, for a first, I guess. Can't figure out how to delete it now. 🧐 If I had known it would actually load, and fit their format, I would have tried to make it more interesting. LOL 📖 🤓 |

We could take some lessons from the older women, as well. Some of them truly fit the description of the Titus 2 woman. Titus 2:3-5 Here's a few of the topics:
Pampering MeYes, we need to take care of ourselves!
Just don't let this be your only priority. Pampering Tips & Recipes Summer Beauty Pampering Me: Natural Beauty Care Pampering Me: Herbal Skin Care The Fountain of Youth Housekeeping!Well, now, there is one very excellent, necessary, and womanly accomplishment that no girl should be without, for it is a help to rich and poor, and the comfort of families depends upon it. This fine talent is neglected nowadays, and considered old-fashioned, which is a sad mistake, and one that I don't mean to make in bringing up my girl. It should be a part of every girl's education, and I know of a most accomplished lady who will teach you in the best and pleasantest manner."
"Oh, what is it?" cried Rose eagerly, charmed to be met in this helpful and cordial way. "Housekeeping!" answered Dr. Alec. "Is that an accomplishment?" asked Rose, while her face fell, for she had indulged in all sorts of vague, delightful dreams. "Yes; it is one of the most beautiful as well as useful of all the arts a woman can learn. Not so romantic, perhaps, as singing, painting, writing, or teaching, even; but one that makes many happy and comfortable, and home the sweetest place in the world. Yes, you may open your big eyes; but it is a fact that I had rather see you a good housekeeper than the greatest belle in the city. It need not interfere with any talent you may possess, but it is a necessary part of your training, and I hope that you will set about it at once, now that you are well and strong." Excerpt, from the book, Eight Cousins by Louisa May Alcott. More HERE. "Her very soul is in the home, and in the discharge of all those quiet virtues of which home is the centre. Her husband will be to her what her father is now--the object of all her care, solicitude and affection. She will see nothing but by him, and through him. If he is a man of sense and virtue, she will sympathize in his sorrows, divert his fatigue, and share his pleasures."
—SIR WALTER SCOTT--Waverley. |
