Thank you so much for the kind words regarding my review. It is so much appreciated. This was my first review but will definitely not be my last.
I was determined to complete this review but there were so many things that went wrong every time, I honestly did not think it would come to fruition.
I think the final take was done on take 35 !! I had to wait till my both my toddlers were out of sight before I could do the video. On so many occasions they wanted to know what I was doing and wanted to be in the video and there were times when I was nearly done and this little voice would say “peekaboo mommy” and I would have to start again. I then considered doing the video at night when they were sleeping, but the lighting was too dark.
The final day I was doing the video, it started raining and towards the end of the review (as you can see in the video) , it was pouring and the wind was howling. I was sitting on the floor outside so my kids would not see me, and by the end of the video my trousers were soaked!!!!, but at the same time it was so funny so I could not help giggling.
When I eventually finished and wanted to upload the video, there was another challenge. Our internet was not working that day. Oh why did it have to be down that day?? I thought I would go to the gym and upload it there. When I got to the gym, they were busy with maintenance and the internet was not working!!
When I go t home and the internet was working I thought I would upload it immediately on You tube. It was going to take 7 hours to upload, so while I went to sleep I was hoping that it would be uploaded by the morning. I was praying that my internet connection would be maintained during that time. I tried to compress the video, but did not have any success.
When I woke up..yeah it was uploaded and I could breathe again…. And that is background of my video and my labour of love….but also why I am so grateful for your feedback
