By the time it gets warm make sure the basement is completely sealed from the outside to keep out snakes and other critters since you now have an easy opening into the main part of the house from the basement.
Ramble away, Abbie! It's all so exciting. When you're not working so much on the house in the future, you are going to relax and enjoy it. Have friends over for a game night, maybe some wine. Lay back and listen to some soothing music without having to think about what needs to be done next. It's going to be so great!
I just wanted to cry when you said “spoiler alert, moving in for Christmas!” Can’t wait for you to share your first Christmas in “your home!” And congratulations on your first cooked dinner! 🎄🤶Merry Christmas🤶🎄
The house has changed so much since that first time in it You have done an amazing turning it into a beautiful home And Jay has been superman through the whole thing
Honestly, I’m very glad that your sister will be living with you,this is a nice situation for you and you certainly have enough room. Your house is big, imo.
Oh Abby I'm so excited for you to move in soon. I went back in October to see the beginning and OMG what a huge difference girl. You, Abby, Jay, Trudy, Mom Brenda, Dad Jim, Seth and all the others who helped you along the way to get where you are today with the house. The cats will get the hang of going through the cat door as it's a process. Can hardly wait for the next video 😊 God bless you all and stay safe and warm 🙏 ❤
Been watching your videos from the beginning....Sooooo very happy for you ! Moving in before Christmas, how special.... celebrating with you 🎉 So proud of you !
Abby, Just think about everything, I mean absolutely everything that You have learned through this process! I was very impressed with your level of courage that you displayed when you started this project, but I feel like Your confidence and skill levels have absolutely gone through the roof!! Now You can spend the rest of the winter doing final little things done and decorating this beautiful home. Then in the spring, when you are recharged and refreshed you can tackle finishing the outside of the house and the landscaping just like You want it done. On the landscaping front, may I suggest that you start ordering flower catalogs so that in your "downtime" you can browse them and get anything that you want ordered in time to plant them I wonder how hard it will be for You and Jay to not be talking to each other every day. Mr. Jay has been a truly outstanding, patient and professional mentor for You! I don't remember how Y'all meant ( I think through you parents) but what an absolute jewel he has been. Take care, be safe, and as always, GOD BLESS YOU.
Count me in for the videos after you move in and start decorating, that's the fun part Abby! I think the little door is a great idea, but do the kittens have to jump down into the basement? Gomer is on the small side so if they go through the door and have to jump down that might be the problem. If it's high maybe Jay could built a little ramp out of some scrap lumber like a ramp so they can just run down rather then drop down onto the basement floor. Just an idea.
I will stay with you as long as I am able. I am 80 and have been here from the beginning. You followed your dreams not everyone gets that chance or a Super Jay to boost you up. Every choice you have made has been special because no one was saying you gotta do it this way or my way. God bless your home.
Soooo close! 😊 I always put something up on the windows first, then put the beds up. That way when you've done all you can for one day you can go right to bed.
I am so excited for you! What a Christmas present you have giving yourself. You have worked so hard and made a ton of decisions. Your body and your brain need a well-deserved rest.
It’s all coming together Abbie. Been here since the beginning. Amazing all you’ve done and learned along the way. Christmas will be very special this year.
So so happy for you and Trudy to be able to move in just in time for Christmas. Now that is what I call a present. I am so thrilled that it has come to pass for y'all. Thanks for sharing your journey, and I will continue to watch as you begin living in it and creating your garden come spring. Have a Blessed day.
Congratulations you have accomplished so much. It will be exciting to see you move in and start living there. What a Christmas present you will have. Randy Grubbs
You have worked so hard to get your house move in ready and I am truly happy for you!!! Christmas to remember!!! If your parents or friends get snowed in at your house maybe a sofa that can covert to a bed could be an option? Lots of blankets in the hall closet!!! 😊 happy for you!! Merry Christmas!!!
I have so enjoyed watching you totally make this house into a beautiful home. Been here from the first video, so glad I got to watch the transformation. Looking forward to continuing to watch as long as you are making videos. You can be so proud, what an accomplishment. Congratulations!
So happy for you and Can’t wait for you to move in your new home . I hope you keep your videos going even after you move in,love watching you and your every day life.
I have been with you since your first episode and I love your videos! Im hoping you continue on with your videos even after your house is completed finished on the inside and outside. I want you to continue with videos once you begin to work on the outside. I would love to see your work outside especially the cleaning up of your yard, your designs for landscaping, your work for the creek and etc…
This actually brought tears to my eyes…happy ones! So proud of all you have accomplished here. I hate to think what might have happened to this sweet house had someone not seen it’s potential. You have been diligent, hard-working and positive through it all. And the kitties are a huge bonus. My cat loves prowling around in my unfinished basement, yours will too. Their “playroom” 😂 Thank you for sharing this journey. ❤
It's amazing what you and your team have accomplished so far. It did look rough at the beginning, but look at all that you have done! It's amazing👍 and I know that you will love it there. One of the best things that you will keep from all this journey is the fact that you have total documentation of everything you and Jay have done. Sweet! Love your kittens too. I know that they will love it when you are there to stay!
Love everything!! Your family and friends are so talented. You could temporarily place more plywood scraps on the counters and have a little ‘we see the light at the end of the tunnel’ celebration. 😂
I love everything you’ve done with your beautiful house! I am very excited for you and I think your kittens are completely precious! I have one cat now and I will never be without a cat. Cats are very good company. Congratulations to you.
Love the cat door and so pleased the litter box will be below stairs!! Have been wondering what you would do about furniture! Was certain you would want new!! So absolutely exciting and fun! Love those kitties!!!
I would be thrilled for you to continue posting videos! I have been thinking lately how much I'll miss them as you wrap up the reno and move in. It would be wonderful to see your ongoing work in decorating, replacing the siding and landscaping. That said, I also imagine it would be nice for you to move on with your life and regain your privacy.
I will definitely be staying on - I'm hoping we will have more fun as you decorate and get organized and then set your sails for spring and the outside. Landscaping is my passion, and it will so much fun to see someone else's version! I know it's hectic now, but what an exciting Christmas morning you will have.
I couldn’t be happier for you Abby! You have worked so very hard and it’t finally paying off. It’s just gorgeous! I hope you keep the channel going to follow the furnishing, the outside siding, and the landscaping/patio.

Keep a low light on in basement for the kitties. We did that for our kitties.
By the time it gets warm make sure the basement is completely sealed from the outside to keep out snakes and other critters since you now have an easy opening into the main part of the house from the basement.
I knew you would be “home for Christmas” this year😻
Merry Christmas! What a fitting gift to give to Trudy and yourself... home for Christmas ❤
You deserve this, you’ve worked SO hard, and learned SO much. Jay’s a true craftsman, and he’s taught you well. Merry Christmas
Ramble away, Abbie! It's all so exciting. When you're not working so much on the house in the future, you are going to relax and enjoy it. Have friends over for a game night, maybe some wine.

Boy oh boy, we’re so happy to be coming along for the ride. 🥰
Abbie I’m smiling from ear to ear for you! Everything looks so amazing.
I love that your window sills are deep enough to sit. Great for plants, candles, & kitties. Kitties love sitting in windows.
How fun and exciting! I’m sure many of us feel as though each milestone is ours too and we clap and squeal with joy to see them.
Congratulations!!!
I just wanted to cry when you said “spoiler alert, moving in for Christmas!”
Can’t wait for you to share your first Christmas in “your home!” And congratulations on your first cooked dinner!
🎄🤶Merry Christmas🤶🎄

Myself included. From coastal North Carolina.
Oh how joyful to be your home for Christmas!!!!

Abbie, I'm not a fan of front loader washing machines, but I LOVE your setup! So exciting to be so close to move in day!!
I know many that have gone back to a top loader.
Oh my goodness getting closer to moving in.

What a wonderful time. Take your time. You deserve it.
Maybe you could add a colorful pretty stencil to the vent hood. Just a thought to add a pop of color.
