Usually you don't see me posting twice in the same day, but I mentioned to hubby that I wanted to explore the idea of reading my poems onto some sort of audio recording. He said: "You can do that on your camera!"
I figured I needed some sort of visual to go along with my reading, so I asked hubby, who draws the best stick people I know, to draw the depictions of one of my poems...the one I call "Down Home". I'll share the poem with you tomorrow, but I needed him to explain some of the things he drew first. You'll see what I mean...if the video works! ^_^ And forgive the darkness, the out-of-focus-ness. We're doing this for the first time!...Maybe the last time!!! LOL Experimenting...at our age!! (Too much time on our hands! LOL) So, here goes!! Be prepared to hear us!....HOPEFULLY! ^_^
YAY!! It works!...And I figured out what I was doing wrong, as to why it wouldn't stay posted. I wasn't uploading it with the "video" icon!...*smh* Sometimes it takes me a minute to learn these things! ^_^ But now...."I GOT IT!!!" LOL
Home
The place where I am at my best.
A place of calm and peace and rest.
The place from which I never roam.
'Cause it's in my heart, this place called home!
Deb and hubby, I really enjoyed watching this and hearing your voices. I hope that you will consider doing it as a once a week feature. Loved both of your voices. Your husbands drawings are great.
ReplyDeleteOh, I just LOVED that!! Hearing your voices and laughter - by the end you had me laughing out loud... All I can say is that I never want to play opposite your hubby in Pictionary - he's good!!
ReplyDeleteMuch love, Silke
SnowflakeDreams1, :-] I'm glad you enjoyed our silliness, but Uhhhh....I don't think you'd be able to stand the two of us every week!! LOL...And hubby says "Thank you very much {about the drawings}. It comes very easy for me because I have a simple mind. Ha! Ha!"...Okay, that was HIM saying that!! LOL
ReplyDeleteSilke, :-)) I'm so glad you liked it! I have to say though, it's very weird hearing your own voice! I didn't think I sounded like me at all, but hubby says "Yeah!! That's you alright!!" LOL And F.Y.I., I insist that he be on my team when we play Pictionary!!! ^_^ Thanks so much for the feedback and the nice words!
ReplyDeleteI like your blog!...Daniel
ReplyDeletehow to..., Thank you very much! :-]
ReplyDeleteOh wow I love it! Yay for your experimenting. That was such fun. It was so good to hear your voices and your laughter. It was very contagious!
ReplyDeletePlease, please, please make another video to share! That was such a wonderful treat :)
Jo-anne, Ha! Ha! I have to say, it WAS fun!! ^_^ But I don't know how many art drawings I can get out of the mister!! LOL Maybe we'll do a question and answer video sometime or something. We'll see! YOU may have created a monster!! ^_^ I got this idea from your posts sharing the crochet tutorial videos!! So, THANK YOU...whether you like it or not!! ^_^
ReplyDeleteNOOO!! I can't see it :(
ReplyDeleteAlittlesprite, I just uploaded it again. See if you can see it now.
ReplyDeleteWow!!! :D This was great!!! Now I'm expecting more videos from you two in the future! LOL I imagined your voice to be totally different! Haha
ReplyDeleteBut seriously - this was great fun! Keep up the good work and the funny drawings! ;)
Mariann, Ha! Ha! I expected my voice to be totally different too!!! ^_^ It was weird hearing myself the way other people hear me...And I didn't like it! LOL What did you think I sounded like?!...Honest now!...Oh well....gotta deal with what I have! ^_^ And I don't know about the further videos thing. We'll see. But I thank you for the encouragement anyway. :-)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I know about hearing yourself in a video or some other recordings. I hate that. I sound much better normally! At least I think so! LOL
ReplyDeleteI guess I just imagined your voice to be a bit higher ;)
Ah! Yes! I only make it higher when I'm mimicking 'Baby Wuglyee'! ^_^
ReplyDeleteAww, you two are adorable! That just put a smile on my face. :)
ReplyDeleteArtisan Originals, *Teehee*....If for no other reason our silliness is out here in cyber-space...that's a good enough reason! ^_^
ReplyDeleteDidn't hear anything. It says it's not available, but I do like the stick people in the drawing! LOL
ReplyDeleteI reloaded....
ReplyDeleteYou two are SO silly! That was a very interesting explanation of the pictures lol
ReplyDeleteI think every month you two should have a video segment - ooo, maybe even have him crochet something lol!
Denise, Ha! Ha! Ha! Oh My!!!! Have my husband crochet something?!!! If only you knew how funny that is!!! LOL I think it would be better letting you see him dance. I think sometimes we have to stay in our lane!....Uhhhhh...crocheting?! DEFINITELY not his lane!!!! ^_^ But thanks for the vote of confidence anyway!!
