You're so right about things working out as they are supposed to. A little over 23 years ago I quit a job I'd worked at for 12 and a half years. Everyone said I was nuts and it was a struggle for many years after, but eventually I reached a personal goal I had previously set aside when I married and had kids. Ever since I was a kid I wanted to be an author. There were many detours between quitting my job and finally finding a publisher that shared my vision for my books, but I arrived.

[@KNNY61]

I politely suggest YOU need to grow up. Freedom of religion was and remains a core tenet of our freedoms in this country. An important part of God's plan for us is agency. Sadly, some misuse this to harm others, impacting their agency; these are the 'sins' most condemned throughout holy writ. Additionally, even Jesus said in the New Testament that sometimes bad things happen to good people for no real reason. (see Luke 13:1-5) Sadly, this important principle for our growth as children of our Heavenly Father means that life is not always fair. Hence, the teaching that God will recompense accordingly in the eternities. But you, my friend, can continue to choose to insult, and belittle those who choose to believe in God, of course. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

[@lethi82]

My son over heard me watching this video and he said, "It sounds like a movie." You guys do such an amazing job. He and I are in awe of the work you have done and do. I was crying at the end of the video, because you inspire me. Thank you guys. In Jesus Holy mighty name, God bless! 🙏❤️

Their prayers Were answered and the answer was No. That's what I always try to explain to people about prayers. You have to be willing to accept God's answer when it doesn't seem to be the answer you wanted. God knows best for us. And even though we may not understand the answer we should always accept His answer to our prayers. 🙏❤

[@terryhenderson424]

And yes, as a small statured person, you will definitely prefer an upright freezer. Lifting the lid on a chest freezer takes a surprising amount of room. If you're in tight quarters, or the chest freezer is along a walkway, the top begins to collect stuff which means clearing the top before lifting it too; and this means that frozen food in hand you have to put that stuff back on top of the freezer lid or commit to walking around it on the floor (or putting that stuff somewhere else whethernit has a proper home or not).

[@ardenpeters4386]

I can never find anything in a chest freezer!!!

[@correlfreehand9454]

my grandmother had one...when i had to clean it out...i knew some of the things were meat...but that was all i could determine...so i called it meat like substance, scary part was it had dates on it that were years out of date. stand up is better. chests just collect things.

[@jimecole7291]

a chest freezer would have been more efficient and less load because it would not lose all the interior cold air every time you open the door, like you do with an upright,,,

I always enjoy your videos but the commentary at the end of this one hit me! We have been in the waiting mode for a solid week for our granddaughter Emma to have open heart surgery. This will be her second as she had congenital heart defect that was corrected at 13 days old. She and her family were all set for surgery on Monday 9/26. They were to go to Houston on Friday 9/23 for her pre-op visit but just before they were to depart they got that dreaded call. She was postponed due to another child needing emergency surgery. So Wed. 9/29 was the next date, and they headed to Houston for the pre-op visit on Tues. and were all set. Then another emergency which then postponed to Thurs., which was then postponed to Friday with a different surgeon and surgical team. Yay Friday, we got her all checked in at the hospital in the surgical floor - it’s finally happening… only to be told that the ICU is full and they aren’t able to handle any more patients. We left so defeated, yet hopeful! Now she is scheduled for Monday 10/3 - her 14th birthday. We had prayed and hoped that this wouldn’t be her day. But for now it looks like it will be. So what actually didn’t work out for Emma, we are praying is actually going to work out. The surgeon will not be on call on Monday so no emergency cases. ICU typically empties out over the weekend as there are no “scheduled” surgeries on the weekend and patients get moved to a room. We are hopeful and praying she gets this much needed surgery completed so we can celebrate this truly remarkable girl’s 14th birthday and her amazing life! God is good and faithful! Maybe these delays have redirected us to this path where there is least resistance to accomplishing the end goal… a healthy heart and a long life for our girl! ❤❤❤

Hoping that freezer is a quick switch after a bit of a drive and of course a stop by the bakery. Upright will fit nicely though there are organizing baskets on railings available for chests. Defrost is the real issue in a pantry. You can always add another chest in your barn, where you insulated in the future. The place is looking great and that shower curtain reminds me of Alaska.

Melissa you are right about things not working out as they are supposed to it is for a reason. I love how your two youngest made their see-saw on top of the wood pile. Children are very inventive. You both have come far. Sorry that your fridge/freezer was damaged. Today the courier companies are not careful with goods. Have a great day.

The most important thing about freezers is to get one that you manually defrost. A frost free freezer will ruin your frozen items (long term).
