As cattle and sheep farmers we’ve long been aware of the verse that gives us permission to pull the ox out of the ditch on the sabbath if it were to fall into it. For instance my husband missed church today in order to harvest as much hay as he can before the remnants of hurricane Ida pour through our valley. It would be a shame to watch the hay waste in a downpour.
You addressed that comment beautifully! I adore that you sincerely thanked the commenter for bringing it up. If we stay in our word, God will give us all answers. Please remember, Giselle, your platform brings peace, light, and a vision of God's love. I pray that you understand there will be critics of each of us - look at the judgement toward Jesus in the exact verse you read - and never grow discouraged in sharing with us. The purity of your vlogs will do just as we are instructed: bring lost souls to The Lord. God bless you, young lady. 💞
Girl, I can not tell you how proud I am of your strength. What an example of not letting emotions get in the way of an ignorant comment, but going right to scripture and present it with a loving spirit. BRAVO!
Your rebuttal on the comment about Sunday work was perfect. Life is not perfect, sometimes we have to do things, out of need or safety, that go against our normal routine, wants or belief. We do the absolute best we can and improve if possible. God loves us despite our flaws and because of our persistence. Shame on a person for criticizing without knowing the complete story. PS- I also love halva, have tried to make it several times but cannot get it right.
I truly love watching your vlogs! Even more, I love how you read and live scripture in the context as it is written. My husband is sometimes required to work on Sundays. After our services, he goes to work. Thank you for sharing your life and love for God🙏🏼❤
I was first introduced to Hutterites when visiting family in Montana. I was raised around Amish in Pennsylvania. I asked a Hutterite woman about her head covering, and she said in their colony, all the girls in the same family wear the same fabric print for a head covering when they go out. They were not black, so after looking around at different families that we seen in the area, we then noticed the different prints of the head coverings. Is this something you have seen around you? Love watching your videos. My great aunt just sent me a book on Hutterites in Montana. I am enjoying reading it.
Good to see you back on....it's been a tough 10 days here in the USA. I think your vlog reminds us on what is really important. Be Well and God's Speed.
Yaaay! Giselle is baaaack! (I really missed you!! hug hug hug) We used to eat Halva at Christmas when I was growing up. My dad would get a huge slab of the white halva, like the one you're eating (and to this day I still prefer white halva over chocolate), a big enough slab to last a week or two even with 10 of us kids (and even with all us kids shaving slivers off the sides whenever adults weren't around :-) Nowadays I only think to buy it once every few years (and usually only if I accidentally happen to see it on a grocery store shelf - where I live it's sold usually in the ethnic food section as "Halwah"), but it is still as delicious a treat as when I was a kid :-) I'm going to put it on my shopping list right now! Very gracious answer re: working on Sunday. Sometimes you just HAVE to work on Sunday. Animals always need to be taken care of, and so do children, the elderly, and the sick. And tables have to be laid for meals with a clean up after, and so on. My understanding is that the day was put aside by God to ensure hard working people got a regular and much needed rest from their endless labours, and God's only admonishment was that people treat the day with honor and respect and not waste it on work that did not absolutely have to be done. It was not made a day of rest in order to create yet another sin for hardworking people who really did have to do work, it was intended as a truly precious gift with God's only requirement being that it be treated as the precious gift it is and not be ignored or tossed away as if it meant nothing. One of the issues in today's world is that so many people think they have to be busy ALL the time and never take a day (and sometimes not even an hour!) on a regular basis to just rest, but we ALL need time to rest. Thank you, Giselle, I'm glad you're back, and I'm already looking forward to your next vlog (oooh, I'm a little behind in watching, and I see it's already available, yaay)! ❤️
We just put cabbage heads to sour last week, 500 pounds. My mom sells the leaves to caterers for cabbage rolls. And we buy the heads from our local Hutterite colony, the cabbage is really nice! Thank you for the vlog glad you’re back this week 😊
Once again - THANK YOU for taking the time to share your life/beliefs and culture with us outsiders. I really look forward to your posts! An Aussie (Australian) friend
I think I’m all caught up on your previous vlogs and just wanted to let you know how much i enjoy watching them. Thank-you for sharing your community with us. I get such enjoyment, and I always end watching with a smile on my face!
The way you display your life is just beautiful!🌺I truly look forward to your videos. You are an artist with great vision. Than you for sharing a bit of your interesting life😊
09:27 You have wild cactus in Canada? My mind is blown! I thought it was way too cold for them up there. I'm happy to see that you resolved your technical difficulties from earlier in the week and were able to post :D. Have a lovely weekend!
I’ve watched this vlog lots of times simply because it inspires me to be a better person and to be grateful for all that our Heavenly Father has blessed us with! As for working on Sunday…it’s all depending upon what day you believe to be the “Sabbath”, technically it was considered Friday at sundown to Saturday sundown…(Sunday was/is considered the first day of the week) Either way I agree, the Savior does talk about doing what must be done on a Sabbath day! I know my family honor the Sabbath on Saturdays mostly by doing only the things what we must do, we relax, rest, spend time with family, indulge ourselves in Reading the scriptures, devotionals, reading, praying, letting go of our worries and concerns but mostly the time is spent to unwind and prepare to begin a new work week. Now as for Sunday we go to church and spend time with family, do whatever work we may have to do but generally it’s still a very laid back day. Thank you so much for all of your Vlogs…it always helps me in so many ways!!🤗🤗❤️❤️
Sadly, people can be judgemental of others from behind the keyboard. You'll find that the majority of Christians misquote the Bible, as they've never actually read it. You are studying it hands on, which is so amazing! 💜💜💜
WOEHOEEEE, a new vlog from Giselle! A great present for my birthday. Can't wait to watch it (which wil be tomorrow because right now it's time for me to go to bed, but I have something to look forward to). I was watching your previous vlogs because I haven't seen them all (and was missing your weekly vlog 😜) and I was wandering about your headcovering/motivations (I've started covering recently which is a rare thing in the Netherlands) and if i should ask you to do a vlog about them. And now, you did! Happy with it and can't wait to watch it. Also very happy that your computer issues are solved. Thanks Giselle!
Using a sawsall to harvest cabbage! That's a 1st! Nearly 800-ducks butchered and I assume plucked and drawn before lunch is amazing! You certainly know how to work efficiently! Take care.
Applause for another wonderful video. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I enjoy seeing your growth in vlogging. New music and loved the “pop” pics! Well done, you!!! You touch the deep roots of abiding in faith through Christ and his written word in each of posts. Thank you for enriching our lives with yours 🤗✝️❤️
My Nana who was born a Mennonite but left, used to make me a cabbage and noodle dish that was amazing! I make it too! Not as good as hers… she fries the cabbage chopped up in browned butter with garlic and salt and pepper, then throws in some no yolks noodles and mixes it all together. It’s so savory and delicious! Thanks for the video! I look forward to them!!!
Hi Giselle, nice to see you again. Oh I agree with you what it says in the Bible about working 6 days but, but if it needs or if you wants, there is a different story, nice to hear that 😊
So nice to see you again hope you didn’t loose to much sleep over the comment from a viewer!thank you for being you and for putting the record straight😉 and I love all your content🦋
Hi Giselle great vlog. Your always so happy I like that. Ur a beautiful young lady and give each of us delight letting us see in your lives. Stay safe the covid is really terrible in my state especially in my city I lost a dear friend this week and my pastors wife lost her brother. There so many children sick as well. I be praying for u and ur colony. Love and prayers sweet girl 🥰✝️🙏💜
God knows our hearts. Sometimes work on Sunday is necessary. First responders, hospital workers etc.. have no choice and mothers must cook for their families so no judgement here. Glad you addressed it for the judgemental among us but it wasn't necessary to explain it. I challenge people to take a look in the Bible when things like that come up. The world can be a very judgemental place so thank you for opening your life up for us to see. That takes courage and I'm thankful I found your channel. You are a shining beacon of God's light in this very dark world. Give Kona hugs from me. I love seeing you both! 💛
I missed you and Kona so much I loved the video Giselle thank you .the cabbages and pickles look so delicious to .hope to see you soon I missed yo so much ...
I'm so happy to see your vlogs!! My Birthday was the 19th, so it's fun to see what you did on it!! I seriously could watch these all day long, as I told you before when I started watching you anyway, I watched them all in about 5 days, never really bothering to do anything else on my phone!! 🤣😂😅 I hope you have a great week, till next . 😊😊😊🙏❤
I sprinkle nutritional yeast on vegetables, along with salt, pepper, garlic powder, oil, and Parmesan cheese, before I roast them in the oven. So yummy and that nutritional yeast is so high in B vitamins! Wonderful!
Hi Giselle, there's an even better verse mk 2, 27 - Then he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. Just read mk 2,23-28 it references your situation directly.
Hi Giselle, your produce is just beautiful. It is obvious your garden is well taken care of while it matures. I think God knows you all love and honor him and it is forgiven when you have to work for “emergency” reasons on Sunday. I loved your flowered dress that was pink and black…so pretty! Question…what do you do with the cactus? Plant for beauty, or use for medicine? Have a blessed week! I look forward to your video and am glad you were able to get this one posted.
Wow, that's a lot of cabbages. But the many hands make light work! We love kraut and make it too. Three weeks ago I stopped at our local farmers market and bought cucs for pickles and an enormous cauliflower from the Hutterites. I fermented the cucumbers with dill and garlic and they turned out delicious - they won't last long. I agree with you on Sunday - works of necessity and mercy are always permitted. Many of the strict Sabbath laws pertained to Old Testament Israel only I think. They were not even allowed to light a fire on the Sabbath. In our northern climate it would not have been possible to survive like that. The New Testament doesn't have all those rules.
Glad you are back Giselle. Looks like you are going to have to delete and reload some of the software on your other computer, some of the program must have gotten deleted or it picked up a bug. You can do it. Your the Best!
Love your video this week so glad you are back without tech issues 🍑 love your sunglasses 🕶 do you have the name of your big bible that was given to you it’s so beautiful I have a small King James that I received from Mormon community thank you I had a beautiful child’s bible many years ago upon confirmation in my Anglican Church 54 yrs ago yes I am old 😂 thank you Gisele! Have great week Gisele and take care! Yes in some areas of professions you have to work I was a nurse for 40 years and without our dedicated health care professionals you cannot stop work on Sundays! Take heart ❤️ don’t worry about judgement from other people I am so glad to have an opportunity to enjoy your videos ❤️
The criticism about your "working on a Sunday" makes me very sad. "Let he who is whithout sin cast the first stone". Sometimes, needs must. If I have tomatoes about ready to rot in my root cellar do I just let them rot, or do I boil them up to hold them for one more day? I boil those tomatoes, for what is the greater sin, chucking them into a boiler on a Sunday or allowing them to go to waste? I will pray for the person that criticised you for this.
I just found the comment, not only did she make a comment but she made a worse one on a guy who tried to explain. Wowza. So then it was game on - so then I googled the person and it's an old person who appears to work in an office. She can pick on me any day. I sin in some manner every single day. Legality-type people make me nuts. We have a very old lady in our Sunday school class and she cuts people down and seems to not even know what she does, except she must know. It's like she earned her age and thinks she has a right to cut folks down. Ugh, I love this channel and the creativity and pep of Giselle.
I am so sorry that some people Can’t keep their judgmental opinions to themselves. Obviously they have not read not to judge other least you be judged. You are a sweet spirit, don’t mind these people who have nothing nice to say there mom didn’t teach them if you have nothing nice to say be Quiet
Hi Giselle. Yet another good video. We’re straight west of you so the rains you get, we get a day or so before. Pretty soon you’re front porch won’t have sandals…. Winter footwear is just a short time away :)
Love all the healthy food options. Would you mind sharing some recipes, such as the water kefir and egg waffle? Thanks for sharing and inviting us to your life and community.
Hi Giselle - I've thought of some questions.... where do you eat on Saturday and Sunday? what is someone doesn't like what is served Monday - Friday? Could they eat at home? How often do you get to go in town? Are you able to leave the community and go shopping whenever you want? How many families are in your community? Do you interact with others more often than some?
I was so excited to see your new blog this morning. I drank my coffee with you. You handled the negative comment about Sunday work extremely graceful and well. Never apologize for loving your calling and valuing hard work. You are loved, you are worthy, you are beautiful. Ps/ is that music while you are cleaning the tub, “pumped up kicks”? It sounds like it and I laugh every time I hear it. If not I like it anyway.
I love halavah! Especially the marble one. Do you ever put a tiny bit of butter in a slice of bread and then spread (sort of lol) some halavah on the bread? Mmmmm
Thank you for the Scripture passage or positive thought at the end of your vlogs. It is April 14, 2022. The world is more of a mess than usual. Feeling powerless to help. Good to be reminded Who is in charge. My job is do as He says for my life and do what I am able for the suffering. I can't fix it. Only He can. So lesson in humility.
So glad you handled that critical comment how you did. Jesus taught us to not throw Stones in John 8:7. We should all try to be stone catchers and not stone throwers. You handled that with wonderful maturity.
Hi Giselle, I'm curious. What made you leave the colony, how long were you away, and what made you return? You may have already addressed this but I'm fairly new here, so I'm curious and I'm sure others will be too. Thank you. Dee from New Zealand ❤
Whoop, whoop! I’m so happy for your vlog! Yes, our Apple trees have been prematurely dropping their apples too. Your garden looks pretty good for a drought year. What are the dimensions of your shawls? I would like to try my hand at making a few for personal use. I was thinking maybe half of a 27” square, or is that too small? I just don’t know and hate to waste good fabric. Thank you, Giselle for all the effort and time you put into creating each vlog. ❤️
How do you freeze your chives and what do you use them for (that they can be previously frozen)? l really enjoy your channel. Thanks for sharing with us. Fellow Canadian, Sarah
Paisano's Roost Farm (American Blackbelly Sheep) in Southern New Mexico: Those were just little bitty prickly pear cacti. We have cow's tongue prickly pear cactus and the pads are longer than 1 foot or 30 cm. Prickly pear is used for cattle feed, the pads can be grilled/fried, the fruit or tunas are turned in to jelly, candy, or juice. A farmer or rancher has no days off. If it's Sunday and the guard donkey is grazing in the Rio Grande flood plain and the five rams have escaped and are talking to the ewes, we will be getting everyone back into the ram pasture
Giselle, in your defense. I worked for Chick-fil-A and they may not be open to the public on Sundays, but that does not stop them for requiring employees to be in the store on Sundays. We had to attend meetings pertaining to the business and clean the store on Sundays. We were hourly workers, but we also were not allowed to check in on the computer system, so we had no way of checking if our pay was correct. So, if someone wishes to criticize you for one Sunday of work, I hope they, while downing their chicken sandwiches, remember what CFA does to their workers and what their clever advertising leads the public to believe. Just because the doors are not open for sales does not mean they are adhering to the teachings of the Bible.
Hi there Giselle, I'm so glad to see you managed to overcome your computer problems. Well, enough to continue v/loging anyway. My prayers🙏🙏 were answered, הללויה לאלוהינו/Hal-le-u-ya la-lo-hi-nu/Hallelujah to our God. Would you like me to send you details of how to fix a computer you have damaged the system drive on? I can type it out for you and post it to you if you would like. It's not a difficult procedure and I'm sure your brother could help you out with it. Anyway, It's good to see you back Giselle. God bless you dear lady and thank you for another great vlog. Until next week (God willing)... 😊❤️
Those that are without sin, cast the first stone. Right? I agree with VampFaye. We canned 16 more qts of tomato juice today and my husband says the rest of the tomatoes will be given away. I've forgotten the exact amount we've canned. LOL I see you have had some rain. So have we, and every drop a blessing from Above. When you make your cleaner, what kind of soap do you mix with the vinegar? I love the singing you put at the end of your vlogs! Warms my heart.
As cattle and sheep farmers we’ve long been aware of the verse that gives us permission to pull the ox out of the ditch on the sabbath if it were to fall into it. For instance my husband missed church today in order to harvest as much hay as he can before the remnants of hurricane Ida pour through our valley.

People can be so judgmental. I love your blogs. Have a great week.
Are you talking about people judging Giselle's wrist tattoo? I would have thought that Hutterintes wouldn't have tattoos.
They can can’t they. They must lead very sheltered lives. Halva is the best, love it.
I am so grateful for you and your videos and your calm and sweet demeanor.
Yaaay! Giselle is baaaack! (I really missed you!! hug hug hug)

I'm happy to see that you resolved your technical difficulties from earlier in the week and were able to post :D. Have a lovely weekend!
Many areas have wild catcus. In Missouri we had to irradicate Prickly Pear from a farm my family owned.
@@ladyrmarnold5336 Missouri is a lot further south than Canada.
We do have summer in Canada in all provinces even way up North.

I’m from Winnipeg! How far from the city are you? This is my first time watching your videos. Very enjoyable. Thank you.
I'm so happy to see your vlogs!! My Birthday was the 19th, so it's fun to see what you did on it!! I seriously could watch these all day long, as I told you before when I started watching you anyway, I watched them all in about 5 days, never really bothering to do anything else on my phone!! 🤣😂😅 I hope you have a great week, till next .
😊😊😊🙏❤
I have a entire room full of probably almost 200 plants. I was so excited to see you plant shopping!
I love Halva too. Most of the time it’s made from sunflower seeds with sugar or honey. But the one from sesame seeds is my fav!
I sprinkle nutritional yeast on vegetables, along with salt, pepper, garlic powder, oil, and Parmesan cheese, before I roast them in the oven. So yummy and that nutritional yeast is so high in B vitamins! Wonderful!

If you look at a calendar Sunday is actually the first day of the week, not the 7th. Something to think about. God bless!
True I believe the true sabbath day is Saturday not Sunday. Not sure who or when it changed.
Hi Giselle, your produce is just beautiful. It is obvious your garden is well taken care of while it matures. I think God knows you all love and honor him and it is forgiven when you have to work for “emergency” reasons on Sunday. I loved your flowered dress that was pink and black…so pretty!
Question…what do you do with the cactus? Plant for beauty, or use for medicine? Have a blessed week! I look forward to your video and am glad you were able to get this one posted.
Wow, that's a lot of cabbages. But the many hands make light work! We love kraut and make it too. Three weeks ago I stopped at our local farmers market and bought cucs for pickles and an enormous cauliflower from the Hutterites. I fermented the cucumbers with dill and garlic and they turned out delicious - they won't last long. I agree with you on Sunday - works of necessity and mercy are always permitted. Many of the strict Sabbath laws pertained to Old Testament Israel only I think. They were not even allowed to light a fire on the Sabbath. In our northern climate it would not have been possible to survive like that. The New Testament doesn't have all those rules.
Glad you are back Giselle. Looks like you are going to have to delete and reload some of the software on your other computer, some of the program must have gotten deleted or it picked up a bug. You can do it. Your the Best!
Love your video this week so glad you are back without tech issues 🍑 love your sunglasses 🕶 do you have the name of your big bible that was given to you it’s so beautiful I have a small King James that I received from Mormon community thank you I had a beautiful child’s bible many years ago upon confirmation in my Anglican Church 54 yrs ago yes I am old 😂 thank you Gisele! Have great week Gisele and take care! Yes in some areas of professions you have to work I was a nurse for 40 years and without our dedicated health care professionals you cannot stop work on Sundays! Take heart ❤️ don’t worry about judgement from other people I am so glad to have an opportunity to enjoy your videos ❤️
The criticism about your "working on a Sunday" makes me very sad. "Let he who is whithout sin cast the first stone". Sometimes, needs must. If I have tomatoes about ready to rot in my root cellar do I just let them rot, or do I boil them up to hold them for one more day? I boil those tomatoes, for what is the greater sin, chucking them into a boiler on a Sunday or allowing them to go to waste?
I will pray for the person that criticised you for this.
I just found the comment, not only did she make a comment but she made a worse one on a guy who tried to explain. Wowza. So then it was game on - so then I googled the person and it's an old person who appears to work in an office. She can pick on me any day. I sin in some manner every single day. Legality-type people make me nuts. We have a very old lady in our Sunday school class and she cuts people down and seems to not even know what she does, except she must know. It's like she earned her age and thinks she has a right to cut folks down. Ugh, I love this channel and the creativity and pep of Giselle.
People judge you for working on Sundays but I bet they have no problem with watching television, having a barbeque or going to the mall.
Glad you are back, I started having Giselle withdraws..
I am so sorry that some people Can’t keep their judgmental opinions to themselves. Obviously they have not read not to judge other least you be judged. You are a sweet spirit, don’t mind these people who have nothing nice to say there mom didn’t teach them if you have nothing nice to say be Quiet
Love that birch forest! Do Hutterites visit each other's colonies alot? Is that common?
Thank you for setting that person right about working on Sunday. How would hospitals or nursing homes be if they couldn't work on Sunday.
Hi Giselle. Yet another good video. We’re straight west of you so the rains you get, we get a day or so before. Pretty soon you’re front porch won’t have sandals…. Winter footwear is just a short time away :)
I wish your community has a channel just for the singing of hymns. Inspirational.
Love all the healthy food options. Would you mind sharing some recipes, such as the water kefir and egg waffle? Thanks for sharing and inviting us to your life and community.
Thank you Giselle! Great video
I remember eating halva as a little girl. It was a special treat we only got at Christmas time. Love your vlogs!
listen once in awhile working on a Sunday is ok, Giselle your good person , and got a big task accomplished too, on a Sunday, good job ❤
I was so worried something had happened! I have missed you tremendously!
Hi Giselle - I've thought of some questions.... where do you eat on Saturday and Sunday? what is someone doesn't like what is served Monday - Friday? Could they eat at home? How often do you get to go in town? Are you able to leave the community and go shopping whenever you want? How many families are in your community? Do you interact with others more often than some?
I was so excited to see your new blog this morning. I drank my coffee with you. You handled the negative comment about Sunday work extremely graceful and well. Never apologize for loving your calling and valuing hard work. You are loved, you are worthy, you are beautiful.
Ps/ is that music while you are cleaning the tub, “pumped up kicks”? It sounds like it and I laugh every time I hear it. If not I like it anyway.
I love halavah! Especially the marble one. Do you ever put a tiny bit of butter in a slice of bread and then spread (sort of lol) some halavah on the bread? Mmmmm
Yes, you’re back!!!
Very good vlog, always look forward to your next vlog beautiful singing as always, God bless
I love, love, love halvah! I have German parents, so much of your foods I’ve had. I love the marbled halvah, but never had sugar free.
Thank you so much for this beautiful video. God Bless!
Thank you for the Scripture passage or positive thought at the end of your vlogs. It is April 14, 2022. The world is more of a mess than usual. Feeling powerless to help. Good to be reminded Who is in charge. My job is do as He says for my life and do what I am able for the suffering. I can't fix it. Only He can. So lesson in humility.
Yay, you’re back!❤️🇨🇦
So happy to see you again!
So glad you handled that critical comment how you did. Jesus taught us to not throw Stones in John 8:7. We should all try to be stone catchers and not stone throwers. You handled that with wonderful maturity.
Hi Giselle, I'm curious. What made you leave the colony, how long were you away, and what made you return? You may have already addressed this but I'm fairly new here, so I'm curious and I'm sure others will be too. Thank you. Dee from New Zealand ❤
Giselle, I just love the way you women all dress. So lovely, feminine, conservative, and modest. Just beautiful 🥰
Missed your vlogs so glad your back
Thank you Giselle....enjoy your videos so much....have never heard of the dessert your grandmother made.....
Where can I find your farmers market. I would love to purchase some produce. I live in Winnipeg
Yes! Take that Sawzall to that cabbage cabbage is hard to handle if you have a big knife. Good job ladies.
Whoop, whoop! I’m so happy for your vlog! Yes, our Apple trees have been prematurely dropping their apples too. Your garden looks pretty good for a drought year. What are the dimensions of your shawls? I would like to try my hand at making a few for personal use. I was thinking maybe half of a 27” square, or is that too small? I just don’t know and hate to waste good fabric. Thank you, Giselle for all the effort and time you put into creating each vlog. ❤️
How do you freeze your chives and what do you use them for (that they can be previously frozen)?
l really enjoy your channel. Thanks for sharing with us.
Fellow Canadian, Sarah
Paisano's Roost Farm (American Blackbelly Sheep) in Southern New Mexico: Those were just little bitty prickly pear cacti. We have cow's tongue prickly pear cactus and the pads are longer than 1 foot or 30 cm. Prickly pear is used for cattle feed, the pads can be grilled/fried, the fruit or tunas are turned in to jelly, candy, or juice. A farmer or rancher has no days off. If it's Sunday and the guard donkey is grazing in the Rio Grande flood plain and the five rams have escaped and are talking to the ewes, we will be getting everyone back into the ram pasture
Giselle, in your defense. I worked for Chick-fil-A and they may not be open to the public on Sundays, but that does not stop them for requiring employees to be in the store on Sundays. We had to attend meetings pertaining to the business and clean the store on Sundays. We were hourly workers, but we also were not allowed to check in on the computer system, so we had no way of checking if our pay was correct.
So, if someone wishes to criticize you for one Sunday of work, I hope they, while downing their chicken sandwiches, remember what CFA does to their workers and what their clever advertising leads the public to believe. Just because the doors are not open for sales does not mean they are adhering to the teachings of the Bible.
Hi there Giselle, I'm so glad to see you managed to overcome your computer problems. Well, enough to continue v/loging anyway. My prayers🙏🙏 were answered, הללויה לאלוהינו/Hal-le-u-ya la-lo-hi-nu/Hallelujah to our God.
Would you like me to send you details of how to fix a computer you have damaged the system drive on? I can type it out for you and post it to you if you would like. It's not a difficult procedure and I'm sure your brother could help you out with it.
Anyway, It's good to see you back Giselle. God bless you dear lady and thank you for another great vlog. Until next week (God willing)... 😊❤️
Those that are without sin, cast the first stone. Right? I agree with VampFaye. We canned 16 more qts of tomato juice today and my husband says the rest of the tomatoes will be given away. I've forgotten the exact amount we've canned. LOL I see you have had some rain. So have we, and every drop a blessing from Above. When you make your cleaner, what kind of soap do you mix with the vinegar? I love the singing you put at the end of your vlogs! Warms my heart.
