I have failed! Construction update and why I fired the contractor || Gardening

[@Pa-MushaRuralLiving]

You have not failed dear. Well done for noticing and stopping the builders. Look forward to your sister completing the house.

[@jaelofthevillage]

Thank you so much 🤗. Bless you

[@millicentmboya2910]

It's not failure Jael,when you want things done a certain way you certainly don't compromise,one thing is no one is doing it for free,things are falling into place nicely,you'll get there,be blessed.

[@stpatrickcentre7694]

Beautiful place

[@1000ShadesOfGlo]

HeyJael. I'm glad you fired those builders. This is your dream house, and It should be done correctly.Just don't rush it. I have noticed there are a lot of cowboy builders who build this crooked buildings where the lines and dimensions are never straight. Pole pole mama, You will get there eventually 🙏

[@scolajoseph3959]

Thank you Jael for encouraging me especially.

[@sonstous4692]

You are not a failure. You are strong and stay that way. I am proud of your strength. Your success is certain because the most high is your guide.

[@60pluslife]

Good things take time. There is always a reason for everything. It shall all be well at the end . Cheers girl ❤

[@florenceojowa7706]

So sorry about your house. You did the right thing to fire the fake contractors. I am glad you discovered before they had done more damage. All the best in finishing the house soon. Thank you for sharing the progress with us. Kudos with plants, by the way.

[@LeahZulu-wu4ok]

Congratulations Jael 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
you have done more than 80% on your building project, just take your time, you will make it, no doubt about it
God bless you

[@gracekilimo5268]

Hi jael,when warming your chapatis on the microwave,put a cup of half water in the microwave as you warm the chapos...the water keeps the chapatis moist and not dry

[@steverudy1954]

Jael I like the way you are hands-on in all your projects. You lead with example. Congrats

[@roy.m.m]

Hi Jael, you might want to reconsider the spacing of the 3 plants/trees next to your house. The palm looking plant that you were tying with binding wire grows really big. The one with the ants on its red flowers grows into a mature tall and wide tree and the other palm also grows quite huge and widens its leaves as it grows tall. It can grow to over 10meters long and is more beautiful as it spreads its leaves on each side. The three plants should be replanted far from your house and have them distanced properly. At least 10meters between each other.

[@aminajumaswaleh3002]

Wow Jael, I love the work of your hands, may Allah protect and guide you always.

[@faizubbykatim9424]

Jael the best flowers are bananas,ovacado& apples, it'll reward you with food,shade& beauty

[@graceodhiambo7574]

True...

[@yvevela7822]

Jael bonjour. You are doing a great job with your garden, and you are adding also a lot of love and passion into it. Indeed Rome wasn't build in one day, so better to have patience and have your house build well. You are doing great Jael.

[@angelamukirae2254]

Jael you didn't fail! lessons learned. Keep the faith and keep that beautiful vision going on the final product!

[@sarahphoebe543]

Wow, this is great work.
What a man can do a woman can do even better

[@MONICA.319]

You did not fail jael, you learned from that mistake and you made the right thing to stop from there. The dinner looks really yammy ❤

[@carenonyango9394]

Jael, thanks for your TH-cam Channel. I met you here before I started to build my house in October last year. You inspired me and gave a lot of advise some which I did not follow have come back to bite me. I appreciate all the good things and vibes that are building us who follow you. I fired my contractor and I am on my second one. So far the part they have accomplished I am happy. You are not alone, remember not all builders are builders. Your eyes are just like mine, able to tell where lines are not straight and contractors who don't know their work don't like that! I had 14 windows and all were brought down because they were crooked. The man could not believe his ears nor his eyes that the windows were off my walls. I am sorry that this happened to you too.

[@DJ-SEBBOO]

Jael, thanks for giving us a tour of your house. In my opinion it’s in safe conditions. Just ensure that less percolation gain access into it. Then let your hand aide clear the grass around the house at least one meter all round. This will limit chances of wild grass with water gaining access into the house. Good luck 🎉🎉🎉

[@carolinecongo1179]

So sorry to hear about the mess of your house Jael. Can't imagine you bringing down the walls. Wishing you all the best.

[@sallywanjiku9348]

You work so hard dear,. and diligently so..... nothing to regret about

[@janecheps7933]

Hey dear Jael. No house works ends without these kind of mistakes, intentional or oterwise. We bring down wholenwalls, whole whatever...it's part of the construction. It's like when learning how to drive a car, hitting things and denting the car is part of the learning. So take heart and be encouraged, you have learned from your mistakes and you are wiser.

[@piweisaac6796]

Soo excited i can feel the warmth of that home already

[@keneddynyagudi5819]

Jael as long as you are strong and alive everything will gonna be alright

[@czogg99]

You are alive and healthy. That looks like a winner for me. It will all work out for you in the end

[@mkmedia3006]

Jael your compound is turning up so beautiful... keep it up

[@tonyadoggett]

Keep up the good work,

[@jaelofthevillage]

Thanks, will do!

[@greenhouse9833]

Hello Jael. I warm my chapatis in microwave. Role it in cling film and you will find it is as good as freshly fried. Thank you for sharing the damages done to your building. Cowboy builders/workers are everywhere. I am glad you fired the person. My advice will be not to bring the walls down but to make good on it. Straighten the walls, hoping that will keep the funds/cost stable??? One day when we meet l will share with you what a cowboy contractor did to my beautiful land 😮. Love your home. Really taking shape ❤❤❤.

[@wandabryantsmith2004]

This is a setback not a failure, Jael. You want your house to be well built and it will. Be patient! Take care.

[@tonnyndundahse69]

Your compound is taking shape really well, keep going

[@ManoeuveringMidlife]

Hi Jael, Pole sana. I find that it's very difficult to get good craftsmanship. Even when they put the glass windows panes, many times the putty is left peaking out of the frame or smeared on the glass itself. Crooked doorframes. Unlevelled gypsum ceiling decor😭😭😭. It's a constant test on your patience...and bank account!! I don't see failure. All I see from how far you've come with the house is that you have balls of steel.💫🙌

[@carollynch5080]

From failure comes success. Now that you fired the bad contractors, all be well. You want it done right, they are not working for free, it’s your money so you want a certain standard. Keep up the great work. All will be well. Blessings ❤

[@LadyLe-z7o]

You will get there sis, take one step at a time. Rushing will only leave you with regrets

[@wendyvictoria2072]

Jael, I was so relieved to know that your sister was not the problem but IS ABLE to help resolve it. Praise God! Don’t give up hope!

[@katina1976]

Wow....sorry to hear about your house. Hopefully you sister will be able to correct the mistakes and make it right.

[@itscyberqueen13]

Thank you for all of the advice.

[@SherelleWallace]

It took me nine years to complete my home and business, but the maintainance and renovations have never stopped. Of course you have to make the difficult decisions to fire someone, and everything cost more than planned. When I am past 40 years of homeownership I think I will sell and rent in different places. But yes, it's always rewarding. Glad your chicken have settled. Blessings from The Bahamas.

[@colinthomas6888]

Hello madam. Very good video always. Take care God blessings 🇯🇲

[@jaelofthevillage]

Thank you so much. Blessings

[@keagleeagle821]

So sorry for what happened.
Its not a failure but a learning mistake.We learn everyday .
And by sharing we learn also.
Good thing your sister is a contractor and she will fix those.
I am currently building also I understand the costs.

[@mercyln6646]

You have not failed lamera Jael...you're doing great. One step at a time. Rome wasn't built in a year.
Love you. Wamari matek❤❤

[@Lulu-po3kn]

Jael, take heart, you will get there eventually.

[@SheilaNdiege]

Hello Jael your videos are very encouraging and helpful

[@beldinaochola9572]

Take heart my sister we learn from our mistake.God will give you your heart's desire.I am also building it ain't easy but will reach there❤

[@angelawangui5184]

Hi J. I agree with you that is poor workmanship and You deserve better. Sorry.

[@yolamudaka3824]

Long time my friend, missing you, and your videos. Hope you're doing well with your family. Greetings from Zambia.

[@goabaridreamer6659]

Builders all over the world ate the same, generally. Have faith, after hardship ease will come in shaa Allah. May you get to enjoy your own home soon. 🥰

[@RosslyneMaina]

Put your chapatsi in a plastic bag like the one for packing food in the fridge,seal it then put in the microwave. And chapatis will be soft.

[@agatc7861]

like your calming tone of voice and your content ❤ You should have stopped them when you noticed shady work a long time ago. I feel your pain.

[@makesitauti]

Learning this in your own time and way is painful but I always cry than refocus and get back up and keep going. We always wanna give people in the village opportunity to make a little bit of money and build relationships. I’m the type that if I don’t like something I speak up.. things a bid different when we have husband and close family to help. Myself and along your fellow sista on TH-cam wish you well and cheering you on to keep going.. you look fabulous and garden and everything look beautiful, I’m always learning things on your page. Ofa atu and aloha frm tonga 🇹🇴 sista frm Sacramento 😊❤no place like homeland.

[@robertgainey7406]

It’s not a good job but never never give up.. your dream will happen 👍🏿

[@Kikikingdomcome]

You're doing so well jael,we learn through the mistakes,I have learnt so much from you ,na kuna time ulituonyesha your sister's project how is it going over there I would love to see especially the garden

[@annhans3535]

Unfortunately, I have learned that is part of the process and you might have to go thru a few contractors and cost might run up to be double or triple what you first estimated. I am not even in Africa, I just went back to South America and we are running into the same issues.

[@dubravkabelogrlicdubravka]

I recently joined your channel so I might have misses that information. If you dont mind answeing the house in which you live now seems realy beautiful.Why do you want to leave? Thank you for sharing. Cheers

[@KerryMogeni-xl8bk]

The garden iz doing well n chicken are adapting each other,its good u noticed the mistakes earlier dont worry ur house will be the best❤❤

[@berthaowiti876]

You have worked hard Jael , Sorry for the disappointment but you were in time to stop it.The plants are doing well 🤗.

[@otienojoyce5269]

Janet i had this grass in my compound and i used a chemical from agrovet round up is the name. It us a very difficult grass to deal with. Try it

[@Soton-E]

Oh dear …. Sorry to hear of the imperfections in your build project 😕 A suggestion from someone who has built two new residences, and renovated two others to add more space - do not knock down the imperfect pillars. A good builder should be able to add more width to those pillars uneven pillars - it should cost you less than demolishing then rebuilding …. Good luck whatever course you take 🌻

[@shamendek]

Hi great job done waiting to see your sisters house how far she has gone now

[@justloveit5178]

The plants in your yard looks beautiful and nice done.
Yes the pillars and walls job of your house are poorly done and it won’t please me too, those fundis will be fired on the spot because it’s not a joke to save for building a house, such people just annoys me. More blessings lovely Jael ❤

[@PC-zg3eo]

Jael, I’m so sorry. Some of these men take advantage of us women. I know your sister will rectify things. Blessings!

[@LadyLe-z7o]

True

[@benaamithamo22]

You don't have to bring down the walls,,, it could easily be rectified by good plastering

[@annemarie-zk4gv]

Jael I need to teach you how to do super chapatis. Lol. I know how annoying it is to get a useless mason, plastering is the beauty of a properly finished house. And cement is so expensive to bring down walls .

I see you are doing great

[@marthakaranja220]

Microwave Chapati for 50 seconds. It will be soft.

They are soft when still hot,the moment they cool, they become rocks 😁

Watching from South Sudan juba ❤️❤️🔥ohh I'm sorry Jael.

[@Proverbs1-31]

What is the wabi-sabi rule?
The Japanese concept calls for a change of perspective: Instead of trying to surround yourself solely with ornaments of perfection, you should learn to appreciate the imperfect… the imperfect architectural lines of your house.. you don’t have to tear the walls down.

[@Uloma2024]

Ur flowers are blooming

[@johneasley8691]

You have not failed unless you quit

[@gloriaadu5485]

Sorry your building project, did not go well.I find that some men think we, as women don't see. they think we are stupid. i had a lot of them try to. do things and did not know,i know their work was not professional. the yard looks great.

[@mafydavtv]

It is obvious to be noticed this is a very bad job by them. Delicious meal

Jambo Jael🥰. Thank you for sharing one of your life lessons with us. The process of life is filled with lessons of ups, downs, good moments and sad moments. There are times we rejoice and times we regret choices made. But it’s a learning process! We learn and move forward. I see you learning to allow patience to develop in your process. There is definitely no failure in that! Continue to dream, share and allow your lessons to teach others. The process of life will continue to teach and reward you. Be encouraged you are doing great things! I am always amazed of the similarities between the plant life and weather in your area and mine. The flowers are beautiful. Your Zinnias, Roses, Bottlebrush, Elephant Leaf and Palms are so pretty. Nature is rewarding your hard work!🤩. Step by step the homestead is coming into manifestation. Kudos to you my dear👍🏾🙌🏾👏🏾. Mungu akubariki 💜🥰🙏🏾🌹🫶🏾🌺🙋🏾‍♀️
