We Bought a Huge Project and I'm Getting My Life Back Together!

[@melissalane-q7m]

Enjoyed! I’m looking forward to seeing the beautiful old furniture and decor in the school house!

You do not look a basketcase my dear you are lovely. I am so sorry that you have gotten Covid 19 4 times. I am thankful you are on the mend. It's never pointless to think of someone and gift them something made with love, maybe a throw blanket?? Selfcare is very important I hope you are doing well.

[@GitteNielsen-mp3bp]

Oh you make me cry when you told about your granddaughter and the little mouse♥️♥️. I think you should make slomething for the mouse and then give it to your granddaughter when she is grown up then she know that you have thought at her and wanted to spend time with her❤ I wish you all the best and are looking foreward to follow your journey to Sweden. I love Sweden

[@EvasHomeVintageDIY]

Hi Gitte, I'm sorry I made you cry! I will definitely make some nice things for my granddaughter in the future when I have a bit more time and peace and quiet and maybe I will even something for the mouse!

Such sweet scenes of Autumn in the Netherlands and of your friendly neighborhood cows. Eva, as a grandmother myself my heart squeezes with empathy for you about the situation with your grandchildren. I miss seeing sweet Nolan and pray all is well with him and your red-headed granddaughter. As for making progress, lately I have been feeling as if time is spinning its wheels and yet I can't accomplish anything. It's a strange dichotomy.

Eva, you are inspiring with your honesty and delight about beauty, which comes in so many forms. Follow your passions intuition and heart.

[@EvasHomeVintageDIY]

Hi MaryAnn, thank you for your sweet comment and yes I will definitely try do that!

[@amandaj2888]

I am absolutely loving your creative style Eva x

[@EvasHomeVintageDIY]

Hi Amanda, thank you!

[@InekeDusseljee]

What a joy to watch this. Glad I am not in your shoes. Two big projects. 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 big respect! 💐💐💐

[@EvasHomeVintageDIY]

Hi Ineke, glad you liked it... I do love being in my shoes! ;)

[@Vanessa-pl3br]

You are beautiful so are your videos and your stuff I'm obsessed with!

[@EvasHomeVintageDIY]

Hi Vanessa, that is so sweet of you to say!

[@dianalyman5950]

What a beautiful video! You are such a joyful noise in the world. I'm guessing the spiders didn't win the fight 😂. Every little thing you do is getting you closer to your new home, don't discount them. About the wee mouse, do what you intended for your grandchild no matter how old she is. I'm betting it will be a treasure to last a lifetime. 🤗❤️🌈🙏🕊️

Hi, thank you for sharing this sweet comment... it really warms my hart!

Hi, I'm Swedish and the beautiful book at 5:08 is a postil (from latin: postilla; derived from the phrase "post illa verba textus"; "after these words from Scripture") also called a homily (from Greek ὁμιλία, homilía), which is a commentary that follows and explains a reading of scripture or sermon. It's written by Anders Nohrborg and published posthumously. During his final illness, Nohrborg prepared the publication of this postil. The letters to his brother Daniel provide an interesting insight into this work. Nohrborg also established a will just a few days before his death, which mainly concerns how his relatives should handle the manuscripts of the postil. In 1771, Nohrborg's brother published the postil under the title "Den fallna menniskans salighets-ordning, föreställd uti betraktelser öfver de årliga sön- och högtidsdagars evangelier" old Swedish for "The Fallen Man's Order of Salvation, Depicted in Reflections on the Annual Gospels of Sundays and Holidays"", which has been released in many editions. The postil is not arranged according to the church year's texts but systematically-theologically according to the order of salvation. According to this, God deals with man in an objective way. At the same time, this objective order is combined with a subjective one, where man is placed at the center. The very concept of salvation is key to understanding the postil. Christian salvation does not merely mean communion with God but also includes a subjective element, a feeling of happiness. 'The fallen man' lacks this happiness. It is realized in the Christian order of salvation and reaches its highest point in the _unio mystica_. Through the fall of man, the connection between man and God has been broken, but through calling and awakening, an empirical transformation of man takes place. This happens step by step according to the order of salvation through conversion, rebirth, and faith. Accordingly, the presentation begins with a section on Christ and his work, followed by descriptions of man and her journey through the order of salvation. Considering the popularity the postil reached, it is interesting to note that the first quarto edition comprised over a thousand pages. The psychologically soul cleansing, pastoral approach is likely the explanation for the many editions.

[@EvasHomeVintageDIY]

Hi Olof! Thank you for your amazing explanation and for taking the time to let me know! It's really interesting.

Ik ben heel benieuwd hoe jullie het allemaal warm gaan houden. Olie, hout, pallets warme lucht pomp.Vocht, muizen, schimmels,riolering , twee kamer bron is nu verplicht. Je mag in zweden niet alles zelf doen of ja mag maar dan moet het nogmaals gekeurd worden door derden, anders geen verzekering. Het ziet er allemaal super gaaf uit maar hoe gaat dit proces😅. Ben ik wel heel benieuwd naar.

[@EvasHomeVintageDIY]

Nou anders ik wel! We zijn op dit moment nog volop research aan het doen over hoe we het huis willen gaan verwarmen op de lange termijn en voorlopig gaan we met een tijdelijke optie alleen een gedeelte van het huis verwarmen. Muizen zullen geen probleem zijn want we hebben 4 katten die super goed zijn in muizen vangen. Heb je het met de twee kamer bron over de water put of over de septic tank? Ik weet namelijk wel dat onze waterput niet diep genoeg is dus daar moet sowieso naar gekeken worden maar de septic tank heeft 3 kamers dus die is up to date. Anyway het wordt een hele onderneming en een hele uitdaging om het huis op orde te krijgen maar wij hebben er zin in en we hebben gelukkig ook hele lieve buren leren kennen die we vanalles kunnen vragen.

I don’t what happened exactly and how it is so irreparable … may be one day your handmade love will reach your granddaughter. Till then, keep having positive thoughts about the two of them. I dare not ask about your younger son … but bless him too. Your new life in Sweden will be full of new people and guests some day .. maybe some of us will land up at your door Eva! I’m looking forward to yiur painting and repainting and hanging art and removing them and hanging new art till it has some meaning for you .. that’s life … no ? Such a dance till you get the right step! Happy spider free life at the barn ! The cows will miss you … am I writing a letter ? I think so. P.S. I love both of you!

[@EvasHomeVintageDIY]

Hi hi, I do plan on making some nice things for my grandchildren in the future and I also think that one day they will come back in to my life. As for the new life in Sweden... I am so excited about it and definitely also about getting to know new people and making new friends over there too! And when we are starting the B&B it would actually be really nice to have people over from all kinds of countries and yes even maybe people from my KZbin channel too! I would love to meet some of you in real life for sure! As for the spiders I am currently trying to learn that they are my friends and thank goodness Sweden also has cows!
