Well, no, I don't practise numerology either...

Something is definitely going on though.

Some occurrences have divine meanings and others are happenstance. I recall playing dreidel for Hanukkah. I spun the same thing ten times in a row (we keep going until a different letter appears). That freaked us out and we stopped.

Did you like it? I’ve never been to one. But I’ve attended services at Conservative and Reform synagogues. I enjoyed it. I found my way back to God and Christ through Judaism.

~Bella

Be Careful. There are a lot of Anti Missionaries in regular Synagogues! I'm glad you found Jesus that is Wonderful. Some MJ Synagogues and other Shuls try to deny Jesus Christ-Yeshua Ha Maschiach. I'm glad that you had a great time. Just keep your guard up. Don't let all of the Traditions romance you okay?

Hanukkah is fun! I love my mom's bimuelos (Tiny fried donuts)

Can a Muslim proselytize in a church? Would his efforts be well received or denounced?

I needed their help. I was nearing atheism. They were the final step before that point. Their love and kindness made a difference. God led me to them. I lived in the area in my teens and used to pass the building every day.

What is there to fear?

I'm really happy for you. I am.
By the way I am half Jewish. My Great Grandfather was Jewish
As for your your question about a Muslim proseltyzing in a church. I'm not sure what you mean. If you are looking a part of Judaism that Knows that Yeshua Jesus is the Son of God then I would try Jews For Jesus. Otherwise I would be leer of others because they tend to mix Orthodox Judaism into the mix with Yeshua Ha Maschiach. Which can get very murky.
I'm glad for you though.

 

[Ronit]

Oh and I have 2 Jewish God mothers One went to be with the Lord several years ago She loved Jesus Deeply

I have Jewish ancestry as well. There were many reasons why the Lord sent me there. I would have bolted if I was subjected to heavy handedness or debates. I needed a peaceful place where I could connect with God and allow Him to minister to my spirit.

It was a rhetorical question in relation to the anti-missional comment. No body of believers wants someone teaching against the tenets of their faith. Christians wouldn’t welcome someone proclaiming Allah in their sanctuary.

I’m not looking at anything. This happened many years ago. I’m familiar with the group. It was birthed at Moody Bible Institute and I’ve heard him speak in the past.

Otherwise I would be leer of others because they tend to mix Orthodox Judaism into the mix with Yeshua Ha Maschiach. Which can get very murky.

Judaism and Christianity are different faiths with distinct ways of conveying their beliefs. I think it’s important for a person to develop a relationship with the Holy Spirit and learn how to listen and respond to His leading. That’s had an incredible impact on my walk and faith.

Not at all. There are periods when I'm required to use a computer/tablet for work or meetings. But most of my activities happen outside the digital space. I'm a diehard skimmer. I preserve my energy for intentional consumption like books, educational programs, etc. For a site like this, my posts take no time to compose. I'm writing as I type. And I type fast (70wpm).



There are charming spots like that on the east coast. Especially New England.



My mother was born and raised in NOLA for a time. They moved here later on.



I don't have the time. I'm running a business, returning to school and preparing to launch a brand when I'm done. I have to design collections and deal with production and clients. In addition to what I'm currently doing and launch future initiatives. As overseer, I have to distribute my time wisely. I don't have to put my hands on everything. I communicate my desires and have the expert execute my wishes. Delegation is a must.

This is a consequence of ownership. I have practical and social responsibilities which come with the position. I won't enjoy the garden any less because I didn't plant every item.



I recall a comment made by former President Bush (W). Someone asked how he handled the things he didn't know. He responded that wasn't his job to know everything. It was theirs (pointing to his cabinet). In other words, they fill in the knowledge gaps.

In like fashion, that's how I feel about getting things done. I don't micromanage or put my hand in every cookie jar. That's ineffective leadership (for my position) and beastly to deal with. I'd run myself ragged.

You mentioned Martha Stewart and that's the uncomfortable reality many encountered who wanted to emulate her life. She wasn't doing it all on her own. Much like the lady of the house, she was the visionary. When people attempted to do the same without assistance, they discovered the unspoken element of her mystique. She has help.

So did the woman in Proverbs 31.

What did you learn from your wood class that you will/can use. Was it cost the reason your sewing table design was not made out a wood product like birch plywood.

 

[d taylor]

Problem solving is an important skill. We'd do puzzles and Mensa-like activities to stretch our minds.



Chip and Joanna are a Christian couple with a successful home improvement show on HGTV. They discovered her through her blog. She's an interior designer. Her husband started flipping houses in college. They work together.

I would design the piece or create the concept. He'd bring it to life. I worked on my table for the sake of learning. But I wouldn't do the same with every project. I'm hands-on with sewing and patternmaking. I require the expertise for future endeavors.

~Bella

What do they do, home improvement, as in going to a family's home and helping the family redesign their home. does she still have a blog or tv is their medium now.
I have not watched hgtv i guess since modern masters was on there. After that program was no longer shown on the station. They kind of lost me, plus i was putting much more time painting,etc..

Is that you eventual goal tv, speaking engagements or private home consultations. all of the mentioned list.

I began the piece in the summer. The shop is hot and humid. We’re near the lake. I didn’t have to concern myself with swelling. It was the ideal project for that period. The drawer size and depth is perfect for sewing materials. They items aren’t heavy.

It would have been less expensive to purchase something pre-made.

2x Alex cabinets @ $129 each plus a Kallax cube @ $40 plus delivery ($49). Not to mention two sheets of MDO and I haven’t painted or added the hardware and wheels.

This wasn’t the cheaper option. Most use 4 Kallax cubes and a slab on top.

They find homes for the participants and remodel them according to their budget. Yes, she still has the blog.

You can create your own tv program without the restrictions and a greater revenue share.

It is my intention to serve the demographic He’s pointing me towards. That’s foremost. Fashion wise, that’s couture and ready to wear. I have no intention of designing interior spaces. It isn’t scalable. I’ll produce home goods instead.

Motivational speaking is an offering. I’m sharing my knowledge and gifts with a group I wasn’t called to serve. He blessed the effort because its genuine. I want to see them bettered.

Well i have completely misunderstood your project. I thought you had used sheets of MDO sized, cut and assembled together to make your sewing table. (with you and your teacher doing the cutting etc..)

So this sounds like you purchased pre assembled pieces and used those to make your project.

I purchased full sheets and cut them in the shop.

One more try.
You used the MDO to tie together the pieces you bought from ikea. Kind of similar to this?

Standard sewing tables don’t include storage. Most are akin to a worktable with a shelf at the bottom. The image you shared is a hack with two shelves on their side. The top is secured and the unit is on casters.

My piece is significantly different. It isn’t uniform. Most hacks use identical pieces with the same height. I didn’t. The Alex cabinets are shorter. Storage was added on top of each to make it level. Then we built on top of that and added an extension in the back.

What you showed is one slab. I have that and something else that slides out in the back for added width. The space behind the units was turned into shelves for my machines. There’s overhang in the front for seating. Thus, there’s extra width on both sides.

The top isn’t bolted down. It can be removed to accommodate a move and the base is similar to the image but there’s no overhang. My table is long and wide. But I don’t have a seam in the center because I worked within the dimensions of the MDO. The sheets are 4x8.

~Bella

These are Alex cabinets side by side.

And i see, is up early, i was too.

I helped mom get to bed around 8:00. Then usually wait around for about 30 minutes she will usually call and want something. So just a few minutes before 9:00 i laid in my bed, i was going to listen to sundays nights hearts of space (on mpb) and see what the program was, but before Thistle & Shamrock went off and hearts of space came on i fell asleep and woke up right as hearts of space was going off.

So i went to sleep for about 50 minutes. But it one of those that felt like i was a sleep for just a minute. But i was not quite awake and fell back to sleep as echoes was coming on (about 9) sleep through that program. Then woke up about 11:00. I was more awake then, got up and did a few things i needed to do (empty out the dish washer, took cloths out of the dryer) then walked the dogs at 12:00. After than went to my studio around 1:45 stayed there till about 3:00 finally was getting sleepy again came home and woke up about 5:50.

I’m exhausted. I need a massage and day of quiet. How are you?

I haven’t had a lot of rest. Sporadic snatches here and there. I’m going to spend the day working on the things I planned to do this weekend. I need a mental health break.

Why was your sleep broken?

That sounds nice, i am doing fine, hope you are doing good today. I woke up awake and got myself going, have plenty to do.

Sounds like a good day for easy going classical music.

Well i fell asleep unintentional at around 8:00 waiting to here hearts of space, but i went out really hard. I do not know why i woke up around 9:00 but i had not dressed for bed and 8 is really early for me.

So when i woke at 9:00 though i was still sleepy. So i really never fully awoke and fell back to sleep to wake up at 11:00.

This time i was awake, and i could tell i would not go back to sleep again for awhile. So i decided to get up and do the things i need to do and after i got a few house choirs done.

I was still not tired so after walking the dogs i went down down, and got a few thing done there for an hour. Came home and fell asleep and woke back up at 5:50 and stated the day.

I have on some days with mom needing me at night, sometimes when she gets up to go to the bathroom. I have tried to be a lighter sleeper so i can hear her when she calls.

I happened to awake on night awhile back (9-10 months) she had fell in the bathroom. The edge of her sink had cut open her forearm on the back, so i helped her up and worked on her arm (it may could have used a stitch but we did not go) but got her fixed up and back in the bed. I put manuka honey on the cut, that is good stuff.
