    Hi lovely people!
    Hope you enjoy todays vlog, we got some very rare sunshine and I was over the moon about it! I spent the day outside enjoying a bit of gardening. Big plans for the garden! Can't wait to share the transformation with you in the coming weeks 🙌🏼
    What are you going to get up to today? I'm planning a nice sunny walk and a bit of DIY! ☀️

    Your videos are so cosy and comforting. Looking forward to seeing how your garden develops over time.
    It's such a lovely thing for you to make meals for your Dad. My Mum had MS too, so I understand how difficult it can be. She sadly passed away 9 years ago, but it brings me happiness just to talk about her :) x

    When I was younger I loved my flower beds, rearranging my flowers, and tending them. The smell of the sun, soil, and earth is just amazing. It is amazing to hear songbirds and see your buds. We are still in the depths of winter in New York. It gives us hope for the future year to come. Thank you.

    Hi Kay! I thoroughly look forward to your Sunday Vlogs, the days go by and then Saturday night rolls around and I think to myself, tomorrow's Sunday😃 Kay's Vlog! 👏😊🐱 When you mentioned "Learning cursive Handwriting with Anne of Green Gables I had to tell you, I live in "The land of Anne!" - Prince Edward Island, Canada!
    I must agree with you about spring being "around the corner," and getting anxious! I think your garden will be lovely and I'm sure Echo will really enjoy himself. I do love the brick walls though - I have a thing for "brick" just love it.
    Our small but cozy home just arrived on site little over a week ago. I REALLY get ya when you said you visualize something and it's like it's THERE! I've been visualizing how I would decorate, and eventually a garden...and maybe a little "SheShed"...at some point.. all I can say is keep visualizing cause it will happen! Sorry for my babbling. Love your Vlogs!! Have a lovely evening, and thank you for always adding some coziness and cheer to my Sunday. 🐞🙂🌷🐱🌱🦋

I know there will obviously be times when it’s not possible to stick to a time but as I work nights I schedule my time around your vlogs to relax etc. Righto...a cuddle with my dog, cup of Yorkshire tea and a cheese toastie and a Vlog from Kay...flippin’ perfect!!! 💕🌈🙏🏻 xx

    Hi Kay! I could comment so many things throughout this video but I'll keep it short! I just want to say that I absolutely love watching these Sunday vlogs they are really cosy and relaxing! I love that you are changing your handwriting. This is something I have wanted to do myself. I remember Louise Hay saying something in one of her audiobooks about how she changed her handwriting in her older years and it changed her life! I also loved Anne With An E and it doesn't surprise me that you do too.

    I never really thought about my handwriting and whether it's nice or not until now, but I do really love the cursive writing and I use it in my journal, as it just flows better and I write faster with it. It also feels like it's a more personal version of my handwriting. But in small notes for work and in the household, I don't use cusive, I always feel cursive is for writing longer things. :) I hope you'll enjoy learning cursive and writing in it!

Anne’s house of dreams was one of my favourite books. Love Lucy maud Montgomery as an author. Jane of lantern hill was another film and a fave. Also check Emily of the new moon here on you tube xx enjoy Anne of green gables. I have just loaned my dvd box set of Anne series to a work colleague whose never seen it but lives period dramas xx can’t wait to hear what she thought of it. Xx

    Why do you want to cover that gorgeous rustic brick wall in your garden? I think it looks a lot better than a fence on both sides and it fits your cottage perfectly 😶
    And in your video the spot for the green house seems quite shady? It should be in the sunniest spot 😊

    • @Livingthelifeyoulove
      @Livingthelifeyoulove  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We don’t particularly want to cover it but it’s too old to put a fence attached to it. We want to gain privacy as it’s only 5ft, lower in some places and we’d like to secure our garden for echo which requires it to be ag least 6ft. We don’t own the wall so really it’s the only option we’re left with! We’ve debated it for so long 😅😂 we still have the wall going down the side of the house and I will be able to see it from the side window 🥰
      We’re west facing so the bottom of the garden gets sun from sunrise until late afternoon in the summer months 🙂

    The high fence won't keep your cat from getting out and getting into trouble, especially you live on busy road..best thing is put him in a long leash but watch him as he might get entangled ..and pease don't cut the trees, please they are so important, especially the pear tree but the others too.don't do that please, it takes years for a tree to grow and you cut it in a minute!😢

    • @Livingthelifeyoulove
      @Livingthelifeyoulove  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      We'll be getting a cat proofing system in place and having full use of our garden is really important to us, it's not just about echo (though he is the main driving factor as is his happiness and he's so happy when he gets to explore outside) it's the privacy it will also bring for us which will be a huge boost for my mental health -being able to enjoy the sunshine and time in the garden uninterrupted in the summer months. ☀️
      We've considered the decision a lot since moving in but ultimately it's going to be the best option. I'm sad too about the trees but we will re-plant and give the ones we do have to cut back to the earth so they can continue the cycle of life. Everything on the left is staying + the pear tree but I will be sad to see the others go! Watch this space, hopefully with time it will become a beautiful garden once more. x

      @@Livingthelifeyoulove good luck with your plans. From my own experience it's almost impossible to keep cats enclosed unless there's a new way now to do so! Don't know. I think a long leash would be ok for him as he's on a very healthy raw diet, so he won't need a lot of exercise...plus you save the birds, 27 million birds are killed each year by cats in the UK! Shocking, isn't it? Maybe get a bird feeder so he can watch the birds and be entertained😻
