After their marriage, the Kidders resided at Charlestown, Massachusetts (now part of the city of Boston), where two children were later born: Mary Frances (also known as May), born January 11, 1845, and Edward Ellis, born September 15, 1847. Kidder’s Music Typography, a music printing shop founded by his brother, Andrew Bradshaw Kidder. She was married in 1844 to Ellis Usher Kidder, a music publisher employed at A. Her writing career commenced shortly afterward when her poem “The Sailor Boy” was published in one of the papers of magazine editor Nathaniel Parker Willis. After about a year, however, her sight was miraculously restored. When she was sixteen years old Kidder went blind, and it was thought that she would never recover. She spent her childhood in Boston, and began writing poetry at an early age. She was born Mary Ann Pepper on March 16, 1820, in Boston, Massachusetts, the oldest daughter of master mariner Daniel Freeman Pepper. Much of the following information is from a lengthy obituary published in the Boston Herald two weeks after her death. One of her hymns, “Did You Think to Pray,” is still included in the most recent Latter-day Saint hymnal, but other than birth and death dates, few facts concerning her life are to be found. Today, however, Kidder and her hymns are largely unknown. Upon her death in 1905, the Boston Herald hailed her as “the last of New England’s famous women hymn writers.” While perhaps a bit of an overstatement, it bespeaks of her importance as one of the leading female hymn writers of the late nineteenth century gospel song movement. Mary Ann Kidder, a prolific nineteenth-century hymnist, is estimated to have composed more than 1,000 hymns during her lifetime. 6 i just need something to boost my motivation is all! Think after my birthday im going to try the wendie plan! Sounds interesting and should definatly shake things up a little =]Īnyhoo i should really go to sleep its 4.Mary Ann Kidder, date unknown, published in the Boston Herald, December 10, 1905 (W-17 T-15 F-21 S-18 S-18 M-18) I haven't weighed any of my food, and i generally just cant be bothered for some strange reason. I think my mind is too birthday focused at the moment, and i haven't had a good loss in a while i think its been a month since i lost over a kg, although I'm not complaining with. Only 4 Days left to my 21st! Still very excited but stressing a little over things not being done, Shaun has arranged with the boys to get their suits on Saturday (the day of the party) and that has me a little worried!Still am yet to find a strapless bra, or jewelry but will shopping is on the list of things that must be don't today, as well as buying a new indicator for Shaun's bike, going to fal for last minuet things for my bday and hopefully dropping off a couple of invites and then hope to bed!įeel like i have been slipping this week, i was ment to be doing fast start all this week to help push me under 84kgs (my bday goal) but i feel like i haven't been tracking properly Although i only went over one day.
So just finished my last night shift at the casino for 9 days WooHoo!! Me and my partner were a little naughty even tho went cant really afford it we asked to take vef (early finish) so finished a hour early, i couldn't do last hour on a 2.50 roulette table (low limit table = never stops,drunk players,and just not a good way to finish the night) so now I'm at my parents place getting ready to sleep for 4-5 hours in before a long and busy day today! Had a heap of left over lollies and goodies from my birthday which i found myself constantly eating so i took the 3 bags of choccy and lollies to work, they went pretty fast =].ĭonok (A lady at my work) is stunned about how much weight i have lost and how fast i have lost it and asked how i did it, i replied Healthy eating (ww) and exercise in which i do Kickboxing, and after a 2 week break after my birthday next time i was at work Donok informed me she has started up kickboxing and has done 5 class's so far, and her whole body aches but she feels so much fresh and pumped for work these days.įinding it a little hard to get back into exercising and eating right, some days i do well other i just don't track, and i really cant be bothered going to Kickboxing tonight, i think its just winter & night shift getting to me, i want to be at home at night snuggled in front of the fire watching master chief and not going to work at 6pm and night and not getting home at 6am in the morning, but its just something i have to deal with i guess.
Weighed in 3 days after my birthday and only gained 800 grams so pretty happy with my self, and i didn't even go over the 85kg mark I'm currently 84.9 haha almost but i didn't =] Well my birthday was awesome, the venue looked amazing, i looked amazing (so i was told) everyone couldn't stop talking about how much weight i have lost.
