Hymn Study: We Praise Thee O God Our Redeemer

Sunday, September 24, 2017

Lyrics:

We praise Thee, O God, our Redeemer, creator,
In grateful devotion our tribute we bring;
We lay it before Thee, we kneel and adore Thee,
We bless Thy holy name, glad praises we sing.

We worship Thee, God of our fathers, we bless Thee;
Through life’s storm and tempest our guide have Thou been;
When perils overtake us, escape Thou will make us,
And with Thy help, O Lord, our battles we win.

With voices united our praises we offer,
To Thee, great Jehovah, glad anthems we raise.
Thy strong arm will guide us, our God is beside us,
To Thee, our great Redeemer, forever be praise.

Thy love Thou didst show us, Thine only Son sending,
Who came as a babe and whose bed was a stall,
His blest life He gave us and then died to save us;
We praise Thee, O Lord, for Thy gift to us all.

Written by Julia Cory on the behest of Archer Gibson. Gibson was the organist at the church that Cory's family attended in New York. Gibson wanted new words to a popular tune (we gather together). It took her about two weeks to come up with the original first three stanzas, she added the fourth for Christmas.

She was an active member of her church all her life, working actively in her community as well.

Hymn Study: Come to the Saviour

Sunday, September 03, 2017

Last Sunday we sang this song at church. It's been running through my head ALL WEEK LONG so I thought I should share that joy with you. (and yes, it actually HAS BEEN a joy). So today.. enjoy Come to the Saviour.

Lyrics

Come to the Savior, make no delay;
Here in His Word He has shown us the way;
Here in our midst He’s standing today,
Tenderly saying, “Come!”

Refrain

Joyful, joyful will the meeting be,
When from sin our hearts are pure and free;
And we shall gather, Savior, with Thee,
In our eternal home.

“Suffer the children!” oh, hear His voice!
Let ev’ry heart leap forth and rejoice;
And let us freely make Him our choice;
Do not delay, but come.

Refrain

Think once again, He’s with us today;
Heed now His blest command, and obey;
Hear now His accents tenderly say,
“Will you, My children, come?”

Refrain

Written by George F. Root, a American man with a love of music. By age 13 he could play several different instruments, he played organ as an adult, and taught in the New York Institute for the blind. He wrote both sacred and secular music, both tunes and words. By the time of his death he had published more than 500 pieces of music. He sometimes used the German name Wurzel (Also meaning root) in his music.

Come to the Saviour is a simple invitational hymn. I read this story over at CyberHymnal

“In 1879 I was assisting in revival meetings in Danville, California,” writes the pastor of a Presbyterian Church at Oakland. “The meetings were well attended and good interest was exhibited, but for a long time there were no conversions. In the neighborhood there was a man who, with his wife and children, attended the church regularly, and he was one of its liberal supporters. They were most excellent people, but could not be induced to profess Christ, and did not call themselves Christians. One day, while the men were holding services in the church the women were having a prayer-meeting in the manse near by. In the course of the meeting they sang ‘Come to the Saviour, make no delay.’ The singing over, they were about to engage in prayer, when the lady above referred to asked them to sing the last verse of this hymn…The lady was greatly affected and when the singing ceased she said with deep emotion: ‘Yes, I will not stay away any longer.’ The women were all deeply moved, and prayed and praised God with warm hearts. When the word reached the men they were greatly encouraged at the good news. A revival followed, .... This hymn seemed to have been the means of reaching the wife’s heart, and of opening the way for the blessing which followed.”

I love listening to men singing hymns. Enjoy this version from Guam. :)

Hymn Study: Come Thou Font, Come Thou My King

Monday, August 21, 2017

We sang this song in church yesterday, and I thought it was an interesting way to modernize an older hymn of worship.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. :) I was captured by the words in verse two about how I was lost in utter darkness and then, oh then Jesus came and rescued me... Aren't those great words to remember?

Hymn: Shout to the Lord

Monday, August 07, 2017

"Shout the Lord" is a praise song we sang in church this morning. It was kinda fun to sing though I missed the trellos that used to accompany it in the church I learned it in. :) Written by Chris Tomlin, I like much of the music he has put together.

Chris Tomlin is an American contemporary christian music author. who has put together more than 14 albums of music set to Praise the Lord God. He learned guitar from his dad, and wrote his first song at age 14.

Lyrics

[Chorus]
Shout to the lord, all the earth
Let us sing
Power and majesty, praise to the king;
Mountains bow down and the seas will roar
At the sound of your name
I sing for joy at the work of your hands
Forever i'll love you, forever i'll stand
Nothing compares to the promise i have in you

[Verse]
My jesus, my savior
Lord, there is none like you;
All of my days
I want to praise
The wonders of your mighty love
My comfort, my shelter
Tower of refuge and strength;
Let every breath, all that i am
Never cease to worship you

[Chorus]
Shout to the lord, all the earth
Let us sing
Power and majesty, praise to the king;
Mountains bow down and the seas will roar
At the sound of your name
I sing for joy at the work of your hands
Forever I'll love you, forever I'll stand
Nothing compares to the promise I have in you

Hymn Study: How Deep the Father's Love for Us

Tuesday, August 01, 2017

We sang this song a week or so before vacation.
As always my heart was broken and then raised again.
God's love for us... sometimes I find it so unfathomable.

Lyrics:

How deep the Father’s love for us,
How vast beyond all measure,
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure.
How great the pain of searing loss -
The Father turns His face away,
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
Bring many sons to glory.

Behold the man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders;
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers.
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished;
His dying breath has brought me life -
I know that it is finished.

I will not boast in anything,
No gifts, no power, no wisdom;
But I will boast in Jesus Christ,
His death and resurrection.
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer;
But this I know with all my heart -
His wounds have paid my ransom.

Written by Stuart Townend. His words are poetry to my soul, reminding me of the depth of God's love for me and all his very own children.

Life Pleasures 2: Concert

Sunday, July 23, 2017

Concert

ALMOST every year since we've been married hubby and I have gone to the Home County Festival in London. Always happens right around his birthday. We took the lad when he was wee young and spent most of the time in the children's area. This year we went and the lad pokemon go'd and worked on soapstone carvings. We hardly saw our lad this year at all. He enjoyed it so very very much! But honestly... so did we. :)

Home County is a free festival...you pay what you want when you are there if you like, some do, some don't, but most do. Bands play, they have workshops where they try to teach you things, and where different groups get together and have fun playing with each other.

This is the first year I heard someone playing a washboard and it was rather neat! :)

This is admittedly not a great video as I used my tablet

(the lad had my phone) but it was so much fun listening to this group

I wanted to try to share it with you. :)

This year it was a wonderful surprise I got to hear one of my favourite singers!!! Susan Aglukark did a short 45 minute concert for us!! IT WAS SO WONDERFUL!!!! It was WAY too short, I told hubby I'd love to hear her in concert and then he reminded me of ticket prices so well.. that's not going to happen. :) But I can buy her music and listen on-line and what not so life is good is it not?

She performed this song for us. I made my hubby grin as I sang along and shuffled around in my chair. :)

I rather despair at this point of getting my lad to enjoy SITTING and listening to music. He likes some kinds of music well enough...but not to just sit and listen to.. he'd rather be doing stuff and have it on in the background.

He did make a couple of neat soap stone carvings though which was rather neat to see, but no pics allowed this year. :(

Anyways, we heard some wonderful music and well... some that we got up and left with, but 95% of it was great! The Bombaliers, the washboard folks, Amanda (something) and a celtic group.... and of course Susan Aglukark.

It was a great Friday evening and Saturday. We didn't go on the Sunday because hubby had to preach and it was his birthday...cake and presents filled our afternoon. :)

Hymn Study: Take my Life and Let it Be

Monday, July 17, 2017

We sang this lovely song in the church where hubby was preaching this morning. It was so nice to sing it with an almost full congregation. Makes the singing so much easier you know? :)

The tune sung below is the one I am most comfortable with.

Lyrics

"Take My Life and Let it Be"

Take my life and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee.
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in endless praise.

Let them flow in endless praise.

Take my hands and let them move

At the impulse of Thy love.

Take my feet and let them be

Swift and beautiful for Thee.

Take my voice and let me sing,

Always, only for my King.

Take my lips and let them be

Filled with messages from Thee.

Take my silver and my gold,

Not a mite would I withhold.

Take my intellect and use

Every pow’r as Thou shalt choose.

Every pow'r as Thou shalt choose.

Take my will and make it Thine,

It shall be no longer mine.

Take my heart, it is Thine own,

It shall be Thy royal throne.

Take my love, my Lord, I pour

At Thy feet its treasure store.

Take myself and I will be

Ever, only, all for Thee.

This hymn was written by Frances Havergal. She was the daughter of a minister and was a devoted christian lady all her life. Her desire was for people to know the Lord, and loved using her ability to write to create literature and poetry to encourage people's hearts toward the Lord. She struggled with poor health all her life, but that didn't stop her from living an active life. She started writing poetry at age 7, and spent time memorizing scripture - the psalms, most of the New Testament and more. She knew many different languages and was in demand as a soloist and pianist. Her poetry was infused with prayer. She died age 42.

This version was quite different but I thought you might enjoy it as I did. :)

The immediate story of this particular hymn.

I went for a little visit of five days (to Areley House). There were ten persons in the house, some unconverted and long prayed for, some converted, but not rejoicing Christians. He gave me the prayer, Lord, give me all in this house! And He just did. Before I left the house every one had got a blessing. The last night of my visit after I had retired, the governess asked me to go to the two daughters. They were crying, &c.; then and there both of them trusted and rejoiced; it was nearly midnight. I was too happy to sleep, and passed most of the night in praise and renewal of my own consecration; and these little couplets formed themselves, and chimed in my heart one after another till they finished with Ever, Only, ALL for Thee!

Word and Deed need to Match

Monday, July 10, 2017

Hello, continuing my study in the Book of Romans. Glad to have you here. Click here for the rest of the series. Today Romans 2:12-29.

¹²For all who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. ¹³For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified. ¹⁴For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. ¹⁵They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them ¹⁶on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.

The connection of the law to sin is one that sometimes confounds me. For instance, those of us who follow the Lord God aren't bound by the law, but that doesn't mean we can do whatever we want. We aren't bound to the law, but those who who obey it, who obey the law, are justified before the Lord God.

In fact those who obey the law of God without even knowing, show that the law of God is written on the hearts of people. WOW. just think about that for a minute eh? God's law is written on our hearts already. He put them there. This, this is why there is only excuse for folks to not obey the law. It's there, we just make choices to follow it or not. It's our bad decision-making that is to blame, not the law. It is this bad decision-making that brings us before the Judgement of God.

¹⁷But if you call yourself a Jew and rely on the law and boast in God ¹⁸and know his will and approve what is excellent, because you are instructed from the law; ¹⁹and if you are sure that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness, ²⁰an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of children, having in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth— ²¹you then who teach others, do you not teach yourself? While you preach against stealing, do you steal? ²²You who say that one must not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? ²³You who boast in the law dishonor God by breaking the law. ²⁴For, as it is written, “The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.”

This section seems to start off well eh? Folks who know the law and do it, doing what is excellent and right according to the law, Paul has some hard questions for these people.

When you teach others, do you do what you teach?

When you teach staying faithful to your spouse, do you?
When you say don't take things that aren't yours, do you take your own teaching to heart?
If you abhor idols, do you take from the temples?

When you boast in the law and don't do what you teach, then you bring dishonor to God and his ways. You cause his name to be blasphemed by the non-believers. If you say God and his ways are important then do so. Model what you teach!!

This brings to mind how I'm trying to teach my lad to spend time in god's word daily. If I ask him to do so and I don't, then what am I truly saying? I want to be honest with him. To that end we'll be working on holdING each other accountable, talking about what we are learning at supper time. This gives us the whole day to get our devotions done. :) and if we don't get them done, we talk to God about it rather than apologizing to each other.

²⁵For circumcision indeed is of value if you obey the law, but if you break the law, your circumcision becomes uncircumcision. ²⁶So, if a man who is uncircumcised keeps the precepts of the law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision? ²⁷Then he who is physically uncircumcised but keeps the law will condemn you who have the written code and circumcision but break the law. ²⁸For no one is a Jew who is merely one outwardly, nor is circumcision outward and physical. ²⁹But a Jew is one inwardly, and circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter. His praise is not from man but from God.

Take for instance here circumcision. It's something that all Jews do. It's supposed to be a sign of covenant between God and his chosen people. But if you don't live out that covenant, so,if you as a Jew, don't live out the law that is already written on your heart, than what point is the circumcision? Those that obey the law without being circumcised condemn those that are circumcised but don't act it.

I found this statement interesting. "But a Jew is one inwardly, and circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter. His praise is not from man but from God." So does that imply that those who follow God truly, who live according to the law written on our hearts, that in essence we are Jewish within? I know it means we are true believers, true children of God. I just found the statement curious. It doesn't really ,after in the end does it though? The important thing is, do you live by the Spirit, following what is written on our hearts in both word and deed?

Hymn Study: By Faith

We sang this song in church the other day, and it brought back good strong memories for me of a women's conference I went to where the Getty's were the musical directors. I was introduced to this song and just loved it. Sung by a full congregation it sounds great as praise directed to the living Lord God eh?

Thought I'd share it with you.

This song speaks to of my favourite verse: 1 Peter 2:9-10
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
Once you were not a people, but now you are God’s people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

How God calls us his own.

Then we need to walk in that calling don't we? Today.. be encouraged to do so. :)

Lyrics

By faith, we see the hand of God

In the light of creation's grand design;

In the lives of those who prove His faithfulness,

Who walk by faith and not by sight.

By faith, our fathers roamed the earth

With the power of His promise in their hearts

Of a holy city built by God's own hand -

A place where peace and justice reign.

We will stand as children of the promise,

We will fix our eyes on Him, our soul's reward.

Till the race is finished and the work is done,

We'll walk by faith and not by sight.

By faith, the prophets saw a day

When the longed-for Messiah would appear

With the power to break the chains of sin and death,

And rise triumphant from the grave.

By faith, the church was called to go

In the power of the Spirit to the lost

To deliver captives and to preach good news,

In every corner of the earth.

By faith, this mountain shall be moved

And the power of the gospel shall prevail,

For we know in Christ all things are possible

For all who call upon His name.

Hymn Study: Come Thou Almighty King

Monday, July 03, 2017

I heard what sounded like a great multitude, like the roar of rushing waters, and like loud peals of thunder, shouting: Hallelujah! For our Lord God almighty reigns. Revelation 19:6

Come Thou Almighty King is a hymn I am very familiar with, spelling out for us who God is.

Originally sung to the tune "God save the King" the national anthem for Britain. Now obviously that wasn't going to work in Britain, so a new tune was developed to go along with these words.

This song has been around since about 1755, with different authors being ascribed to it but none proven. Currently no one has a real certainty about who the author is. For more on this, I suggest you visit here.

Hymnologist Albert Bailey characterizes the hymn in this manner: “The hymn is a prayer for the presence of Christ to inspire a congregation in the hour of worship. God is addressed under three forms: as Father, the timeless “Ancient of Days” whose function is to rule (stanza 1); as Incarnate Word, the spirit of holiness whose function is to bless and conquer (stanza 2); as Comforter, the indwelling source of joy and power (stanza 3); and finally as the mystic combination, the Holy Trinity, in whose presence we shall spend an eternity of love and adoration (stanza 4).” (source)

Lyrics:

1 Come, thou almighty King,
help us thy name to sing;
help us to praise.
Father, all glorious,
o'er all victorious,
come, and reign over us,
Ancient of Days.

2 Come, thou incarnate Word,
gird on thy mighty sword;
scatter thy foes.
Let thine almighty aid
our sure defense be made,
our souls on thee be stayed;
thy wonders show.

3 Come, holy Comforter,
thy sacred witness bear
in this glad hour.
Thou who almighty art,
now rule in every heart,
and ne'er from us depart,
Spirit of power.

4 To thee, great One in Three,
eternal praises be
hence evermore!
Thy sovereign majesty
may we in glory see,
and to eternity
love and adore.

Hymn Study: Whiter than Snow

Monday, June 26, 2017

I have to admit that I not had a chance to sing this hymn very often. I know the chorus fairly well, but I need to follow the hymnbook for the verses. Needless to say though, it's a rather nice hymn that reminds us of how we look to the Lord when we are his own.

Whiter than Snow was written by James Nicholson who lived c. 1828-1876. He was born in Ireland and came over when he was around 25 years old.

James Nicholson spent much of life as a clerk in the post office in Philadelphia. He was always active in the work of the Wharton Street Methodist Episcopal Church. The hymn was first published in a pamphlet titled "Joyful Songs" in 1872. The hymn's popularity greatly increased with its inclusion in the well-known Gospel Hymns series published by Sankey and Bliss. (source)

He spent about 20 years in Philadelphia, eventually moving in c.1871 to work in the post office in Washington, DC.

This hymn is based on Ps51:7 – “Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.”

Lyrics:

Lord Jesus, I long to be perfectly whole;
I want Thee forever to live in my soul;
Break down every idol, cast out every foe—
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
- Refrain:
  Whiter than snow, yes, whiter than snow,
  Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Lord Jesus, let nothing unholy remain,
Apply Thine own blood and extract every stain;
To get this blest cleansing, I all things forego—
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Lord Jesus, look down from Thy throne in the skies,
And help me to make a complete sacrifice;
I give up myself, and whatever I know—
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Lord Jesus, for this I most humbly entreat,
I wait, blessed Lord, at Thy crucified feet,
By faith for my cleansing, I see thy blood flow—
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Lord Jesus, Thou seest I patiently wait;
Come now and within me a new heart create;
To those who have sought Thee Thou never said’st “No”—
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
The blessing by faith, I receive from above;
Oh, glory! my soul is made perfect in love;
My prayer has prevailed, and this moment I know,
The blood is applied, I am whiter than snow.

Hymn Study: Jesus, I Come

Monday, June 19, 2017

This past Sunday we sang this hymn and I wanted to share it with you.

Jesus I come was written by William T. Sleeper in 1887. Mr. Sleeper was a home missionary serving with the Congregational Church in Massachusetts for over 30 years. The tune I am familiar with was written by George Stebbins. Mr. Sleeper also wrote the hymn Ye Must be Born Again. Beyond that, little is known about this evangelist and part-time hymn writer.

Lyrics:

1. Out of my bondage, sorrow and night,
Jesus, I come; Jesus I come.
Into Thy freedom, gladness and light,
Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of my sickness into Thy health,
Out of my wanting and into Thy wealth,
Out of my sin and into Thyself,
Jesus, I come to Thee.

2. Out of my shameful failure and loss,
Jesus, I come; Jesus, I come.
Into the glorious gain of Thy cross,
Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of earth’s sorrows into Thy balm,
Out of life’s storms and into Thy calm,
Out of distress into jubilant psalm,
Jesus, I come to Thee.

3. Out of unrest and arrogant pride,
Jesus, I come; Jesus, I come.
Into Thy blessed will to abide,
Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of myself to dwell in Thy love,
Out of despair into raptures above,
Upward forever on wings like a dove,
Jesus, I come to Thee.

4. Out of the fear and dread of the tomb,
Jesus, I come; Jesus, I come.
Into the joy and light of Thy home,
Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of the depths of ruin untold,
Into the peace of Thy sheltering fold,
Ever Thy glorious face to behold,
Jesus, I come to Thee.

I'll leave you with a tune by Thompson. It's a rather different tune to me, but it might be one you are more familiar with.

Today.. it's the Letter U for blogging through the Alphabet.

Tuesday, June 06, 2017

E.T. Phone Home..

I don't know about you, but I really remember that movie and need to show it to my lad sometime. :)

Now with that in mind.. I want you to think back to Canada turning 100 years and wanting to find a good way to commemorate it.

It's two years before the first men even walked on the moon, years before images came back from Mars and what not.

BUT The government decided to do something you might think is a bit odd. They helped a small town in Alberta put up a UFO landing pad. St. Paul was designated a centennial city.

Pretty neat eh?

Like I mean that SERIOUSLY.

Who thinks of putting in a UFO landing pad?   Only us creative Canadians. :)   (grinning widely here eh?)

It was put up (with no public funds being used) at a time when people were highly optimistic about space travel. Wouldn't it be cool to explore space and possibly find alien species!?!?!?!

I found this image on TripAdvisor

This photo of Ufo Landing Pad is courtesy of TripAdvisor

St. Paul, Alberta wanted to do something different from all the other towns around them as a drawing card.. no oversized food or furniture for them! How about the world's first UFO landing pad? Make the aliens feel welcome yes? And ... if in welcoming aliens you made yourself a tourist attraction.. ALL THE BETTER! (see this article).

Built as part of the Canadian centennial celebration in 1967, St. Paul, Alberta has an official UFO landing welcome site. Weighing just over 130 tons, the large flat concrete structure contains a time capsule to be opened on the 100-year anniversary of the pad’s opening in 2067. (source)

It's actually a rather informative centre, teaching people about UFO's and various sightings. You'll find photos of possible landing sites, mysterious Cattle mutilations and crop circles.

A large map of Canada has been made with stones that come from each of the provinces. This map is found at the back of the pad.

This image below is from CTC News.

Check out this video of the Landing Pad. You may wish to shut your sound off unless you like music playing...

Anyways, I am so glad you joined me here today, I hope you will visit with Amanda as well and learn all about "Ugly". If you have an alphabet blogging post, do join in won't you?

Hymn Study: Oh the Deep Deep Love of Jesus

Sunday, June 04, 2017

Have you ever sat back and listened to a bunch of men around you sing a hymn together? Just listened to those deep voices of men praising God together?

I had the privilege on Thursday of doing just that.

I joined hubby for the closing session of Banner of Truth conference this year, along with my 11 year old son. The men sang "Oh the Deep Deep Love of Jesus".

It was just LOVELY, seriously LOVELY to sit back and listen.

Here is the session:

Here are the Lyrics:

O the deep, deep love of Jesus, vast, unmeasured, boundless, free!
Rolling as a mighty ocean in its fullness over me!
Underneath me, all around me, is the current of Thy love
Leading onward, leading homeward to Thy glorious rest above!

O the deep, deep love of Jesus, spread His praise from shore to shore!
How He loveth, ever loveth, changeth never, nevermore!
How He watches o’er His loved ones, died to call them all His own;
How for them He intercedeth, watcheth o’er them from the throne!

O the deep, deep love of Jesus, love of every love the best!
’Tis an ocean full of blessing, ’tis a haven giving rest!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, ’tis a heaven of heavens to me;
And it lifts me up to glory, for it lifts me up to Thee!

I found it very difficult to find a video of men singing this lovely old hymn. Wasn't crazy about it but it's not a horrid rendition, just seemed very fast. :)

Anyways, this hymn was written by: S.Trevor Francis. A man who loved open air preaching and writing hymns. He was a young man going through..what some might call a time of troubles.. troubling enough that he was tempted to end it all. But then asked himself... do you love Jesus. His answer? “I do believe with my whole heart.” His faith reaffirmed, he continued working his way onward.

This hymn speaks to his love for the Lord God. Pretty cool eh?

I'll leave you with this rendition.

Sharing My Open Tabs

Saturday, May 27, 2017

So every once in a while I get a whack of open tabs in my browsers and I want to keep them but don't always know where to put them so I'm going to plunk them down here and see what you all make of them. :)

From random conversations, books read & general homeschooling.

In physics we were learning about a plumb line so I have this page of images saved for when the lad says "what's a plumb line again mom?" For those who don't know a plumb line is "a line with a plumb attached to it, used for finding the depth of water or determining the vertical on an upright surface."

KodKod. It's a type of wild cat! You can learn more here.

Lori told me about this program called Quizlet. I am intending to add to my freebies over here but simply haven't gotten around to it yet.

This really cool version of the Periodic Table. Planning to link it up on the freebies as well, but you know.. life happens.

Random Stuff:

Dear Homeschooler has a camping link up that I've been intending to put some things on and again... been rather busy.

Quarto.   Just because I've been doing a few reviews for them and wanted to check out what else they represented. I am hopeful that I can get a few more to do. :)

Breathe Conference.   I want to go to this conference. I want to apply for the scholarship but am needing to stop feeling intimidated by the idea.

TownWideYard Sale. it's yard sales...what can I say?   :)

How to Cut Glass. It's just fascinating and I want to try doing this sometime.

Mystery Science.   I've been checking out some of these stuff off and on for a while. Need to link it on my freebies page yet too.

All about Birds. Another one I want to save. I've had this one on my browser since my son took a birding class last spring.   Along with this other bird related one. What Bird.

Fun way to Introduce Chemistry. What can i say... looks like a fun game!

and that's about it. There's also a few recipes saved on the tablet, but that's cause I want to blog about them with pictures of the food I made. :)
