Three Busy Days of Drudgery, Shopping and DRAMA /Over 60 

Hours spent sitting and waiting in a cell phone store have been some of the most frustrating, stressful, anxiety producing hours! Kudos to you for doing that and not collapsing and asking the kids to do it! Very admirable!!👏👏

Nanny you're amazing 👏 😊 I don't know where you get your energy from You tire me out just watching you Take care God bless you both ❤❤

You look like like you've just walķed the red carpet at the Academy Awards! You're a natural! Night night, Nanny!

Nanny you are amazing! I wish I were able to be as "techie" as you are! I love your videos!

Standing in line and waiting for someone to help you is so frustrating! Love you NANNY!!!😘😘😘

👋 I just want to say I love your positive happy energetic outlook on life! I know that people who come in contact with you must appreciate it, and pass it on to others! You and Moosey always bring a smile to my face 😊! Thank you and may God continue to bless you! ❤❤

Hi Nanny and Moosie, thanks for sharing your days with us. I'm older and you really help me a lot with different things. Wow that black out must of been scary. I keep flashlight's handy. The one you have is nice. Of course Moosie slept through everything 😂😂.Boy a very long and exciting ventures. Have a happy day 😊

Oh, Nanny. Hectic days. I hope you have "recharged." At&t David is a gem. Sushi 🍣 🍵will be great. Your skin looks radiant. (I didn't even notice the music in the former video 😂). Have a fabulous relaxing weekend. I'm looking forward to seeing you next week. Blessings to you all 🧖🏼‍♀️💆🏼‍♀️🧘🏼‍♀️🥤🫶🏻✌🏻

Oh Nanny, you are so lovely and a positive inspiration to us all! Your pure grace💄💍💓. And a treasure to all who follow your adventures😊. Your a joy and a wealth of information for your years of wonderful experiences💖

Just a friendly reminder, make sure to drink enough water! 😊❤Shannon 🇸🇪

Nanny, you are amazing. You have many more technical skills than most os us.

What a wonderful woman you are for your family. More families need to be like yours. I remember you saying you “show up!” What a witness of the love of Christ you are for your generations that follow! You are truly an Angel…blessings to you and yours during this Season of Jesus. Merry CHRISTmas! Peace and prosperity, Cindy

Nanny I bought these lanterns for all my grandkids away at college. Some have to walk thru a dark parking lot when they're out at night. They love them. I didn't know one could get a military discount for a phone, I'll check that when I get a new one. You have a lot of guts to go out late at night looking for a creature. Yikes!

Nanny you are amazing. You do now in a day than I do in a week. I enjoy you sharing your energy with us. Now to get up and get started.😉 Love to you and Moose.

Wow you have had a few very full days!! Thanks for sharing all the activities!! You’re so smart learning all the time! Keeps us young! ❤

Greetings Nanny! I enjoyed seeing your weekly drama! My goodness, you're a saint to persevere through all that cell phone stuff. It seems to take hours doesn't it? The picture is very clear by the way. Always good to see you! Love and blessings ♥️🙏

Happy, happy birthday. I hope you have a blessed year ahead. I really hope I am as mobile as your are when I get to 86. I am 73. You are amazing in doing your videos. I would not have a clue. Your lunch looks delicious. Oh, let me tell you about a day I had two weeks ago: our computer crashed, the internet went out, our answering machine did not work right for our business and my husband said his iphone was not working. This was all in one day!!!! I ended up getting a nice new computer, got online and fixed the internet, called the phone company for the business phone, and got the internal sim card activated for hubby’s cell phone at Verizon. (after waiting quite awhile on a wooden stool!)

Oh, I have learned to never leave the kitchen when I am cooking. I get distracted easily. I would be a fumbler with a fire extinguisher. I am eager to see what you have.

I love your Christmas stockings, your children are very lucky to have you making these for them.

you might consider bring your cat in at night since the coyotes are around or fix a place for kitty can go, somewhere that the coyotes can't go. Hope Shamu stays safe.

I am 77 and feel pretty independent after my husband passed several years ago. Although once in awhile have to ask my boys for help. I hope I am doing as well as you down the road . You have a great speaking voice.. Happy Birthday !

I think you do a marvelous job filming your videos. You are very techy. Keep up the good work because we do enjoy watching you on RU-vid.

Goodness Nanny what a time you have had! So this is one reason why we admire you so. If Nanny can deal with all these issues, maybe I can too. But I’m telling you, all this technology that we deal with on a daily basis can get very tedious. Not just technology, trying to find the right fabric, sewing machine not working properly, invaders on the roof, power outages, a husband to care for, a home to take care of, meals to prepare, etc, etc. You’re the perfect example for this is how to get it done. Take care of yourself Nanny, you’re precious to a lot of people. God bless you and God bless us all. 🙏💕

Nanny, I love you. I can't wait to check for your videos. Thank you for sharing your life. You make me laugh and cry and just blessed to have in my quiet life 💙🙏 take good care. Debbie

Oh Nanny... you make me think of our time in Arkansas... we lived right by a State Park... Our house sat up on a hill but every night about midnight the coyotes would run through the hollows. Yipping and yapping and howling .. I'm sure they were on the hunt of something to eat.. but they always made me smile.. the sheer joy and abandon in the those yips and yaps was just wonderful.. I was safe in my home and just consider it such a privilege to experience that..

Your last video was one of my very favorite of yours. I was truly touched by your Birthday wishes, along with the bubbles and music.

When I saw the second fabric you pulled out I thought green, it looked of more quality. You’re still amazing with all you get done. Phew. You’re so comical. I mean that in a good way, you put a smile on my face 😊. Can’t wait to see the tool for extinguishing fires. I’m glad everything worked out with the electrical blackout. Raccoons are indestructible. I watch a documentary on them and they adapt to any situation. Fascinating, but quite annoying. Same with squirrels. Coyotes are a different story. Thanks for all your efforts and love in making these videos.❤️

Hi from Annie you certainly get busy there and all that sewing. It is lovely that you do that for all the kids. The coyote is perhaps a bit like our dingos here they are always looking for food.As long as their bellies are full they are harmless. Some can be pets too. It is a wonder moosie never wakes up with all that noise and drama you have at times he must be a real solid sleeper. I am like you up n down all night. Those times you are without power can be really scary especially at nigh so it's good you had those lanterns handy. Those velvet PJ's look lovely on you too. Take care.

Nanny, I really loved hearing about your adventures. You have so much energy and you’re so patient. I can’t wait to hear about what you’re using on your skin. Till the next video. Love you both❤

Hi Nanny, I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your videos! I’m a little bit new to them (about 3 or 4 months) I think. I feel like you are my new friend. I lost a beloved friend about 3 weeks ago and I feel that I need your videos to help me get over my loss. Of course her family really suffered loss, but we all feel it in different ways. Thanks for being there and doing your videos. Thanks also for having an upbeat attitude. It’s so good to watch and listen! Thanks again and God bless us all! 🩷

Your right! Thanks for the reply

Yes Nanny, needlework and sewing is a tactile experience. We need to touch and see the fabric, threads and ribbons. However when things are limited to online we are at the mercy of others. I have returned fabric to Amazon. Color and weight were totally different from how it was described. I wish the old days were back. There used to be some beautiful fabric stores in Orange County with decadent, gorgeous fabrics and trims.

Thank you very very much Nanny for caring so much for your viewers! I’m just in awe how caring you are to share the flashlight and fire extinguishers with us! Thank very very much once again Nanny! I hope you’re still hydrating and doing your calisthenics cause with all the running around you do you need to take care of Nanny first, so you can take care of your Moose and the rest of your family. I enjoy your biweekly videos so much Nanny! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Omg! I'm exhausted hearing about all our adventures! Get some rest young lady😘

I have been subscribed to your channel now for several months and I love it so much! Thank you for sharing your beautiful family and your words of wisdom and recipes.❤️

So good to catch up with you. This 71 year old girl loves your fun spirit.

I love the coyote on the roof story. Wild! I have racoon families that occasionally visit my deck at 2:00AM looking for any leftover stray cat food. I have a stray cat living on my deck and in my garage. I have also seen a white possum stop by. But never a coyote. There have been bears wandering through town, maybe once a year. Of course the deer running through the neighborhood. No wonder Shamu is watching the roof. Good that you have a shelter for her. Nanny, I can't believe how much you can do with making these videos. Amazing that you can figure out all of the technical and editing aspects. I'm still thinking about the good old days of the phone on the wall, no message machine to answer. Simpler times. Good for you to be able to understand how to do all of the new phone technology. I think you look good on your new camera. I will mention that like Moose, I don't watch those shows like the Bachelor, etc. However, like you, I have become hooked on the Golden Bachelor for some reason. It's down to two. I think he should pick the one from Florida, but I think that he will probably pick the one from Minnesota. Who knows. Scary for me to think of. Finding a mate on a tv show. Anyway, we will find out. Have a great weekend. Thank you for the video. Take care.MJ♥️🐾🐺🐻☎️🐈‍⬛🦌🦝📱📞

Thanks Nanny GOD Bless ✨🙏🏻✨🌷

What can exciting week. That would scare me( on the roof)!😮 you are brave. You look fabulous Nanny,keep looking beautiful,& say hello to Moosie.Hugs to both!🤗💞💙🌟

Hi Nanny, I enjoyed the video! It was good to hear everything was okay! I am glad you were able to get a new phones and your sewing machine fixed!

baking soda puts out fires! I've used it on woodfires, grease fires, then there's a fire blanket for smothering fires! stay safe☺🙏

Love you and enjoyed this video. You are so kind to share your life with us. I am 74 soon and you are my inspiration to stay active and involved, Sending a big hug to Moose ✨🌵✨🙏✨❣️🍃🍁🍂

Thank you Nanny and Moose. Love the light my ten year old grandson gave me one, I live in Oklahoma and we are always having power outages. The squirrels are very bad to chew through the power lines.

Nanny, you know you have sainted patience when you have to deal with new phones, contracts, $$$, and then transferring all of your info! Glad that you had a wonderful sales person to help you. That takes some of the sting away. Now you and Moosie will have the latest and the greatest tech to work with. Your adventures ring so true to us because we are all trying to navigate life’s waters. Some days….smooth sailing, other days we get some dang choppy waters. Wishing you and your wonderful family a blessed and happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy the food, the company and the day. Even in these tougher times, we all can find something (or much) to be thankful for. ❤🍁

Hubby and I spent the morning in the Apple store getting new phones. What a frustrating day trying to learn how to use them!!!

I am so glad you had a good experience getting your new phones! You look lovely. Sending much love💞

That's quite a shopping trip. I also have those emergency lights sprinkled thru the house. Here in Northern California, they come in handy as our electric grid can be spotty at times. Love your new pj's. They look so cozy. We have coyotes here today. Blessings ❤

Hang in there Nanny. I have computer problems too. My daughter helps me.

Oh my you did have a day and a half. You accomplished a lot . The light on your new phone seemed very good. Wow Coyotes on your roof that’s quite some thing. We have coyotes at our ranch here in Texas but they don’t ever get on the roof. Lol. You are an amazing woman. I can only hope that I am as spry and as sharp as you are when I’m 85 I am 77 right now. I am doing pretty good for 77. No complaints. Hugs 3:53 and God bless you and Moose. ❤️Caroline.

I always bring in my old cat at night. He doesn’t like it but I tell him, “Nothing good happens after midnight”. 😂…. He’s getting used to it….😊

Thank you Nanny, great video as always... would love to see a sewing video of you making the Christmas stockings.

The Vont was not backwards…looks great

I bought those lanterns for all the men in my family when you told us about them a couple of years ago. I didn't get myself any though. I will now. Thanks. You are so patient for your age. I am 76 and am not sure I would have all the patience you have. My husband died 4 years ago so I don't have to be a caregiver anymore. I was for a couple of years. It is hard. I live alone now. I have lots and lots of squirrels because I live in a pecan grove. I've had them in my attic. EEEkkk. I hate them. We also have coyotes and foxes and deer. I feel your pain. But remember I am alone. Your new phone is great. The picture is much clearer and sharper. Thank you for sharing your very lovely life with us. I look forward to each video. P.S. I've got to get out my sewing machine before Thanksgiving to make my daughter a curtain for an open cabinet. Hope I can remember how to do this.

That's Teal. The other is Emerald green, but most X-mas sewing is done with Forest green. I know because I love velvet LOL! Good video. THX

Your videos are awesome!! You are wonderful!! I love your videos!! Keep doing what you are doing. Love you!! Blessings!

Nanny I love your videos without the music. Bought a lantern and love it, thank you

OMG Nanny! I have the same red/blue/black/white plaid shirt as you! We could be twins!!😍💞❤️

I'm so happy for you Nanny. You seem to be having fun and actually have so many things to do. I go to thrift stores and look for dresses, blouses or shams that are made of velvet materials. I had found a beautiful brown velvet dress that was displayed before I got to the register, someone else had purchased it. 😢❤

You always brighten my day when I watch your videos Nanny! 💕 And btw my hubby would have slept through all that drama too!😆

I bought those lanterns after you suggested them last time. Last week we had a power cut because of the storm, so I got to use it! So handy, much better than phone torch or candles! A great idea, I got my mom one too. x

You always look nice but you look so much younger with your hair down. Glad your sewing machine only took a minor fix. Keeping yourself busy keeps you young. I have coyotes in the hills behind me and I enjoy hearing them call each other. Although I do worry about my neighbors pets. Vont was not reading backward. I have a couple and they are really handy in a closet where there is no lightbulb.

Tarten check would be nice to for stockings ❤

Always keep baking soda near. You throw baking soda and it always works!!!!

So happy you have your new phone. It's nice to get good help isn't it? Love your videos!! 👌 ❤

Fun to hear your adventures of the past couple of days. This video is bright and clear. No worries there. Those coyotes are scary!

The VONT was clear on our side - I think you saw it backwards on your end. So phone is good. When electricity goes out here in Indiana - iit usually is for days, not minutes or hours. This spring mine went out for 2 days - and next neighborhood didn't get it for 3 more days. And the way things are happening these days - everyone should be prepared for emergencies - a go-bag ready in case you have to leave your home - I know I have noticed earthquakes in California getting stronger and more frequent lately - be prepared.

Always great to see you Nanny! I love your new Pj's. I can't wait to see your Christmas stockings when to are finished. The two materials you showed are beautiful. One was a beautiful teal. I don't have the talent for crafts but I love to do interior design. Remember to take time for yourself with a little pampering!! See you next time Hugs and ❤

You have such stamina! One or two stops is about all I can do! Hint: many crafters often find eBay is a good source for fabric and even finding a garment with the desired fabric that they tear apart just for the fabric. As you know, it’s more work however. I wonder if you can store your footage in the cloud so you can keep your storage lower on your phone/video software. Or save to your computer and delete from phone….just guessing. Love your videos and look forward to your fun updates! ❤ Hi Moosie!

Im gonna say teal green but its a gorgeous color! I started sewing at 11. Mom sewed everything too. I haven't sewn in awhile cuz my eyes get so tired. But now i wanna sew!!! I was very good! I need a project like you!😂nanny your videos are ok with us. Im 75 and you are amazing at these. Love your shirt. The golden bachelor was fun. I finished it! Entertaining. Loved the onion soyp recipe last wk. Love your gift videos. Your jammies are lovely. Love you❤❤18:33

-Uha, I certainly know about black outs!! -We have them about every other year. First I always think it is only in our house. But then I look outside, and the whole area is dark.. Always a bit of an experience. Luckily the light etch. always returns within an hour or so.. -I should really get one of your recommended !!lamps!! You could have a cat door installed. to allow Shamu to get into the house and safety quickly, if in danger from the coyote. I'm sure he would position himself close to it when outside at night.. Maybe he won't need to go out at night if he knows he can get in/out by himself, and not feel trapped. -How lovely that Molly is having a baby boy!! Her girls will enjoy having a baby brother so much!!

Hi Nanny I get tired just thinking about all you do, you are amazing. That is some story about the coyotes, I would sure be worried about Shamoo. I always have a box of baking soda near the stove it works good my mother told me that. Hope everything settles down for you.Hugs Bea

I sure miss seeing you, We went to Ill. to help my brother celebrate his 97th birthday with 6 of his 8 children. Our two daughters were there all of us from Fl. I had gotten a jar of Bio Gel, before we left, and was disappointed that it burned my eyes so badly. I am 81, and this looking fab is all new to me. I stopped using the Bio oil, and used Vit E oil. Then on the ride home, (2day trip) I got to thinking if I put the coconut oil on my eyes first, then the Bio oil, it might worked. It did!!! I really enjoy your show, and am learning a lot as I watch and enjoy. bd 81

Definitely teal fabric. If you don't find it by searching hunter green you might search kelly or even pine green. I feel for you & your trying days! I had to clean stuff out this summer to make room for my mom's stuff. Decided to have a garage sale. Wore myself out Fri & Sat and will probably never have another one!

Hi Nanny, I'm glad you got through all of that a very busy time those flashlights look great must check them out i'm sure your new phones will be great it will have a better camera and the coyote we have foxs in Australia and they are in suburbia at night anyway love to you Nanny and Moose 😍🙏

All I can is that you are one amazing lady! God bless you!

Hi Nanny, Wishing you and Moose a very Happy Thanksgiving, I am here in Idaho with family and having a grand time.

Wow! Your camera is very clear and crisp! Don’t apologize Nanny. I appreciate how much tech stuff you know. You are amazing!❤

Good morning Nanny. You are fantastic, you do more things in a day than I do in a week. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. Having Coyotes on your roof is scary, isn’t there any wildlife organisation that come and catch them? I wish you a good week. Love you. God bless you all.

I don’t enjoy the new phone scenario very much but once it is all done and dusted I am always happy. We have coyotes in our area also, they like to roam the streets in the wee hours of the morning. Have a relaxing Sunday with Moosie🙏❤️

Love Love Love

First the velvet you bought for the stocking was beautiful. On my computer it looked green. You mentioned the print being backward on the lantern but it should up right on mine so all is good. Those lanterns are a great gift Idea. Have a blessed and relaxed weekend and I look forward to your next video

You do a great job and I wouldn’t change a thing❤❤

You know a lot more about videos and tech things than I ever will

I miss sewing so much. Fingers can't change bobbin anymore...

Love you Nanny, Love to hear your voice, Love your lipstick, LoveLoveLove, Muahhhhh 💫

Your new phones camera looks great!

Ñanny lovely full informative video. Your sewing machine bobbin .,Always run the tiny brush (from the machine tool kit) .the build up of lint , does makes the bobbin pop out & can also loop your stitching .ESPECIALLY afrer stitching velvet !😅 Place the bobbin back in ,the 2 prong bits go to back .(The bobbin only has one way to fit in) .NOW gently SLOWLY hand crank/ turn the Machine wheel ,watch the needle ,you will see if its going to hit any metal. If it' looks like the needle WILL hit something and its not right give it a tiny jiggle the bobbin will almost shunt itself into correct position All you need to think about is 2 pointy prongs pointing out towards the back back ,but MORE important the SLIT in bobbin, where you always thread your cotton , is directly nearest to you .Remember gently hand turn the wheel ,the bobbin will almost jiggle itself into position. As you know ,from all your beautiful velvet stockings, just looking at it, velvet sheds its lint . Im off to buy a firbkanjet for my kitchen ,thankyou Happy days love and resoect from U.K

Nanny you are an absolute joy to watch , like a dear friend popping in for a coffee ☕️ and a chat ! Lots of love from across the pacific NZ 🇦🇺 xx

Sending lots of love to you and Moosie ❤🎉

Dang! I wish I had your energy.

Oh Nanny, we're so much alike. I was having problems with my iPHone also. Too exhausted to make dinner. Wish I had that Trader Jo, frozen dinner. Yikes who knew that iMovie could get so filled up. I used to love that chicken sandwich at ???? Thank goodness I don't have one near me. Always fun watching your videos.

Your new camera is beautiful Nanny! It is so much clearer than the other one and you can see the interior of the cottage so much better. It's just beautiful and so are you!! For an 86 year old woman you are exquisitely beautiful! You must have given the guys a run for their money lol 😂! ❤

Nanny ask for a military discount, we get one from Verizon. We also get a did ount for auto pay. It doesn't hurt to ask

I know about upgrading to a new phone. The techs can do so much but there are those apps that you have to reinstall via playstore or other apps. I have three of those lanterns. I have one in my bedroom and the other in my car, i sent one to my daughter. Thanks so very much for that tip! It takes some time to adjust to a new phone, so God bless and give you special insight in navigating your new phone ❤😊

You have had a busy few days Nanny, but glad you managed to get your new phones. You are amazing for your age, I admire you very much xx

Nanny, I’m a fairly new subscriber and I just love you!!!! Your energy spills over onto me and I get motivated! I purchased your Holy Grail and I love it, thanks for the tip. I stopped wearing make up, just used concealer under my eyes. Well, you have me using makeup and I feel fantastic about myself!! I’m 74, live alone and don’t have family close by. I’m normally alone for holidays and I so enjoy watching you prepare for you and your family. I also love your recipes, easy, peasy and delicious! Thanks for coming into my life and give Moose a special hug from me. Ooops one more thing, was it Kate Smith that said, at the end of her show , God bless us all!?

Nanny! You’ve had a very productive week! We’ve a firefighter in the family too and I’m getting those fire blankets! Q: while you were waiting for phone contents to transfer to new phones, how did you record yourself in car? Blessed thanksgiving to your family! 🦃💕

Your face looks just fine. So I am assuming that you weren't afraid of the coyote I would have been. I hope it does not come back! Paula

Nanny, you are something else! : ) Wow, I could never do what you do! Even though it was grueling, sitting there at that apple store, I would not be brave enough to even go to an apple store by myself like that for phone problems. That is just so great you doing that and showing how kind they were at the other phone store was very good of you too, I think it's so important to reward kindness like that. One place you may want to try as you've said before, is the resale shop, this time of year you may be able to find that really good velvet on a skirt or formal that you could cut up if it was a good value. Hobby Lobby of course is always a favorite if they have what we want. : ) It's very nice when you mention making supper and what you are making, it's like having a girlfriend to talk to. Take care now, enjoyed hearing what you've been up to! ~Amelia at My Forest Cathedral blog
