Getting Ready for Autumn
Hello dear Sisters in Christ,
Today I decorated my house for Autumn. I know it's not officially Autumn yet, but I look forward to this time of the year especially after long hot summers here in Southern Nevada.
I also wore autumn colors today. A Claret colored floral top and a long brown skirt.
My planner - time to plan for September!
I wanted to share a Picture of a cute doll my husband bought me earlier in the year- he saw it when shopping and said it looked like me! Haha so he bought it. I told him I would wear a similar outfit lol!
This little bear came with the doll
I recently watched a few films - one was Out of Africa. It's one of my favorites. Starring Meryl Streep and Robert Redford. The cinematography and soundtrack are amazing. It inspired me to wear this outfit ...
I was inspired by this outfit below and I realize it's not quite the same lol, but I did my best with what I have.
More outfits from the film.
The real Karen Blixen that the film was based upon.
I also watched a movie called Shadow on the Sun starring Stephanie Powers (from the old Tv show "Hart to Hart"). It's a film about Beryl Markham who lived in the same area in Africa as Karen Blixen and they knew each other and had some of the same friends. I didn't know about Beryls life story so I was surprised to learn that she was the first person to ever fly an airplane across the Atlantic Ocean! It was certainly a very different time from today. I watched the film on the "Tubi" app.
The real Beryl Markham
In the film Out of Africa they have a character named "Felicity" but it was actually based on Beryl Markham. I think maybe they didn't use her real name because when the film came out in the 1980s, Beryl was still alive (though very old)!
Anyways, besides that I've been working on writing another book and I'm creating some coloring books to sell too on Amazon! They will be Grace themed and for Homemakers too! I'm enjoying creating them, it's fun!
I also created my first song!
You can listen to it below. I woke up from a nap and in my dream I had made a song with these lyrics so I asked my husband to help me create it using AI music generator and it turned out really well! That was fun too. It's freely available to listen to on my YouTube shorts. I might make more in the future.
In His Grace,
Mrs. Adrienne Jason
