Tuesday 4 Hard Working Women

 

Hard Working Women

 Well, it's good to see you back here at Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4.  

Whenever I write Tuesday 4   I will inevitably hit the 5 instead of the 4. 

 Oh well... Let's talk about Moms and Wives and other  unpaid domestic servants.

1. Have you ever found yourself in the same position as this lady?    I have yes How did you feel about it? just doesn't seem right

2.. Women do the cooking, the cleaning up and the organizing while the rest of the family reap the rewards of that.. is it fair?  Not at all, but God gave us women that ability to do things in love

3.  Vacations at air b&bs or rental homes often mean Mom does all the work.  What kind of holiday or vacation would be most restful for you?  One that came with a maid :) so mom can relax too

4.  In Proverbs 31, the wife is married to a very prominent man in town.  She runs the house, has a cottage industry, owns vineyards on her own and buys and sells real estate.   

What kind of woman are you? I am now disabled but do find rewards in helping others  Do you hold a job.. do you do the housework.. do you find rewards in service to others or do you find it can be wearing on  you or perhaps a little bit of both.    I did all the housework when I did work a full time job I really enjoy doing things that help others

What  earthly rewards do you get out of  the life you are living?  Knowing that Jesus put us on earth to love our neighbors, to me that is helping any way we can, preparing a meal, even just to check on each other.  For me, I feel good when I can do something nice for someone, truthfully though it isn't about me.

Tuesday 4

 

Gone with the Wind

Welcome to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday4

I came across this Photoshop that I did a few years ago in which I replaced Vivian Leigh's head with my daughters head.  She is a huge Gone With the Wind fan.

It was an epic novel and a big silver screen hit .

1.  Have you read the book or seen the movie Gone with the Wind and what did you think of it?  I have never seen or read it it :( its on my list to see

2; Which character was your favorite? If you didn't read it or see it. who is your favorite fictional character from a book or movie and why?  I loved Anne of Green Gables,  she just  reminds me of myself.

3. Are you a fan of big epic films like Dr. Zhivago,  Gone with the Wind, etc." If not what kind of films do you enjoy the most?    I am, I love drama, comedies, and action movies

4. The Ante Bellum era is indeed gone with the wind.  Is there an era in history that you are interested in or that you have a good deal of knowledge about? Perhaps there is an era you would like to learn more about?  I love the Victorian era  I did many reports in it while in school
