- Happy new year!!! I'm so excited to be sharing this video with you all. Yes, another abandoned house, but we're making a difference FOR SURE! This one was TOUGH. So much debris to clean up, so overgrown, SO COLD! However, I'm thrilled with how it turned out.

I hope young people will watch you and understand what a good work ethic is. I hope this work ethic will spread like fire!
You jumped 5k subscribers in just two weeks!! God is blessing you. Keep on keepin on Sean. Mad respect. 🇺🇸
❤❤❤wow great job❤❤❤
I sure hope the people in the neighborhood appreciate all your hard work in such conditions. You are truely a blessing. May God continue to bless you and your family.
My Thoughts EXACTLY....I never ever get tired of watching you do what you do for the many families that need your help...
Thank you so much!!
@@MidlifeStockman I totally mean what I say ,...but in 30* weather,...oooo that's just to cold for this ol' dude,...better you than me. I don't expect you to do it all the time but I do LOVE Your Content!!!
Great job it sure does look better 😊
Ditto
I'm in Southeastern Michigan, north of Detroit. That was extremely hard work. Unless you live in this environment, you really know how hard it is to rake frozen leaves or edge a frozen lawn. Im so happy I found your channel. Finally, a creator from my neck of the woods! 😊 Judging by a t-shirt that I saw you wearing, I thought you might be in the Genessee County area. I'll now have to keep my eyes peeled to see if you make it a bit south. Excellent work!
Hey there!!! Keep your eyes peeled for sure!!! So glad you're enjoying the channel. Thanks for being here.
This was a fun one to watch. I loved seeing the yard's character take shape. It went from a pile of leaves and junk to crisp, defined sidewalks and edges. You are one of my favorites. Your work and production quality are right up there with SB, Al, and Kevin. Beautiful! ❤
Wow thank you so much for those kind words!!! in great company there.
The fact is you took on an insanely hard thing to do this time of the year in our northern climate. I can actually say I never seen anyone out there except to remove snow or lay down salt on sidewalks. I'm glad I stayed and watched the whole thing. I use to thing you were really cool for going that extra mile to fix things around these houses butt now I know you are the kindest hearted person I've ever seen. Wish I had two nickels. I would send them to you to get you two new tools for your loss. May you and your family have a blessed New Year.
I think you did a fantastic job Sean, despite the frozen ground, your equipment breaking down, all those bricks, garbage and those vines everywhere! Love the transformation! Looking forward to your next video! Wishing you and your family a year filled with love, laughter and many happy memories!
Thanks for the continued support you show. Never goes unnoticed.
Your very welcome Sean! @@MidlifeStockman
Agreed! Determination! Dedication! Works well on you Sean! ✌️💜💜💜
Brilliant job while working in adverse weather conditions. They say it comes in 3's, so you've had your 3 for the year, vehicle, rake & whip, let's hope none too costly to repair/replace. I am looking forward to seeing this property again later this year when you tackle the back yard. Blessings to you and your family ❤
Awesome job! I am sorry about your rake and weed trimmer breaking. The front and driveway look so much better, tidier and safer for the neighbors. Even the cat was thrilled and went to check it out. 😊 The snow waited until you were finished, too.
Sorry your rake and your whipper broke. You are doing a great job with that frozen mess!
The fact that there’s homeless people out there and abandoned homes is just sad 😔. Bless you for what you do for your community.
What is wrong with America that they can’t find solutions to abandoned homes and so many homeless people? Is this a bank problem... perhaps our banks are a big part of this problem...
Your correlation is flawed. Homelessness is an issue for sure . However, a great majority of the homeless are in that situation due to the fact that they are financially unable to sustain a home. Rent or mortgage requirements being the two largest costs involved. Your statement seems to imply otherwise. There isn’t a lack of housing, it’s the lack of finances to support the residence. And a lot of the time it’s because the person is irresponsible in the handling of their finances. Does there need to be affordable housing ? Absolutely. Should jobs pay well enough to support decent housing? Definitely . Fixing the second issue will fix the first one. Until employers curb their greed and pay living wages and lenders and landlords do the same a permanent solution isn’t possible. Suggesting, as you seem to be, to just let homeless people take over empty houses is not a solution . Without the means to support a residence it is in fact NOT a solution at all. Push for legislation to force decent wages and prevent over inflated prices as the proper steps for solving the issue. In short, vote out all republicans who currently hold office and oppose fair social services and support corporate greed.
@@alanyoder7629 housing costs have skyrocketed outpacing wages. Causing families to lose their homes. Having numerous empty houses and families living on the street is heartbreaking. Yeah don’t think one political party is the cause. There are greedy democrates as well
@nikkid7838 nope, repubs are solely to blame for rising home costs and stagnant wages. They refuse to pass ANY legislation that would help either situation.
@@nikkid7838repugnantcons are the main culprit here
You are without a doubt the most detailed yard transformation channel I watch. Thank you for the service you provide the communities and homeowners.
Looks 100% better, a lot of hard work!!! Great job !!!!!
WOW! Spencer wouldn't have taken this on. That was an incredible amount of physical work! Bless you. Amazing transformation ❤
You did a great job! Neighbors must greatly appreciate what you do. God bless you!
They were super thankful - honored to have helped.
Amazing job! I'm sure the neighbors appreciate the work you did. Take care the next two days if it gets as bad as they say.
Again, you nailed it!!!! Despite the equipment malfunctions, and the frozen ground, you still came out on top, as usual!!!!!! I can't wait until the spring, and then we'll REALLY see this property pop!!!!!! Great job Sean!!!!!
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, nothing deters you from doing a transformation! Nobody would want to go out in weather like this, let alone work in it! Another absolutely beautiful transformation, and I can imagine how beautiful the place will look come springtime!
You have now become the only landscaping RUclipsr I watch! You truly have a heart for people’s property and you go to Great lengths to do a super job. You leave no stone unturned and give it your all when it comes to tackling the job at hand. Your videos are a pleasant speed for viewing and I always enjoy the extra repairs that you do to enhance the transformation. May God bless you and your family this New Year in many ways as you continue to serve the community with your passion to help those in need.
Wow, thank you so so much for such kind words! They truly mean so much!
2 parte :arreglen la cerca de madera , el.portón ,la escalera de entrada a la casa y el.patio de atrás 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Do hope you go back. That is a nice home. Glad you collected the bricks, stones and windows plus kids can result in a disaster for that home. Thank you for what you do and the extra mile you go for everyone ❤
That turned out better than expected considering the weather conditions and lack of tools. 😮
Hey thanks! I thought so too!
Wow! Kudos to you for working your way through frozen ground!
You did a amazing job. Sad so many abandon homes any they can't set veterans or homeless families in.
What a hard worker you are!! What a blessing you are to the neighbors! More strength to you!
You’re the first lawn restoration guy I’ve seen ever work in the cold! BRAVO!!
Hey AL Bladez 👋🏻
I've lived in the Northeast my whole life...cold has been part of my life! Hoping to work with Al in the very near futre here.
In Michigan we are just built different than most.
Al lives in Florida. A big difference!
@@quesnelgirl just so you know, Al already commented on this. He said he’s going to stay in Florida. 😂
I hope someone will see this and give your for free a new gras whipper. Great job! Looks so easy when you remove those overgrown earth mats. But I am sure it isn't. Mostly when the soil's frozen too! Chapeau!
And looks like the cats were very happy by your work too! 🐱🐱🐱
That place was destroyed. You did a great job especially given the cold weather and the difficulties that presented you. That was creative thinking and hard work that you used to get through your weed eater breaking. This is a property that I'd like to see a return to and do the backyard so I hope you can do that. That was a great job!
Thanks to you Sean. God bless you for this community work. Happy NY to you and your's. Always glad to see you drop a vid.
Wow you’re getting better and better at this!!
This was a tough one,wish i was in Michigan I’d of been glad to give you a helping hand.That was great that you were able to utilize the old fences to safe off the yard.The hedge trimmer saved you and wasn’t bad in the end.
It’s disappointing to see so many vacant properties yet so many people living on the streets.Well done as always!!
Yup. Half frozen ground can definitely make the job harder. But you did a great job anyway.
Amazing redo!! Looks 100% better.😊
Great yard cleanup in winter. You may have to trade in lawn equipment for a snow shovel one of these days😅. Since I'm from that area, I know there is no shortage of properties that need your kind of help. Keep up the good work!
What an AMAZING cleanup landscaping!!💪🏼💪🏼❤️🙏What an awesome video from start to finish!!! 🙏🙏🙏❤️
This clean up was epic. You took on a huge project. But as you always do, it looks 100% better. Thanks for the video. Good thing you are young!!lol
Thanks for the love and support! That one was for sure tough.
Good old fashioned Yankee ingenuity and "where there is a will there is a way" come to mind as I watch this transformation. As long as the outcome you desire is accomplished. You have a great work ethic. I look forward to your videos. It reminds me that there are still hardworking individuals in existence. I'm sure your hard work and dedication are appreciated by the neighbors. Keep up the great work that you do. Who knows. Your transformation may be what helps this property catch someone's eye and they may decide to buy it.
The best I could do on a day like that, would be to stay warm inside. The best you can do, is awesome!
That looked bloody hard work, well done for your dedication 👏 👍
Tady v České republice v Evropě už je také mráz a tak jsem se dokázala s tebou ztotožnit 🥶😉. Chtěla bych to mít co nejdříve za sebou. Ty jsi to zvládl perfektně, máš moje uznání a velkou chválu!! Děkuji a gratuluji. Těším se na další video s tebou! 🏆💯👍👏🌿
Thanks so much!!
Been watching for awhile now, and I am very impressed with your work ethic....God Bless you for helping in your community....❤....
So glad to see you cut down the stumps from trees cutting.I see so many that don't.How does anyone think it can be mowed with out them cut down ?
Landscapers clearing fences has taught me something - never, ever, never have a chain link fence! No fence looks a treat to clear but anything else looks easier than those. Despite the challenges you did a brilliant job fixing this up!
LOL! I was fully expecting a local news station to pull up and start filming a breaking news story of a lunatic doing yard work in Michigan in the middle of the winter. The highlight of the story is "and he is using a hedger trimmer on the driveway!!" You are one determined man ! It looks great! Thanks for a most entertaining video!!
I hope the community appreciates your efforts! I know Mother 🌎 does! Power of example!
Fabulous job! That had to be really hard work, especially with the frozen ground. You pulled it off so well. I love watching your brain work. You think of such ingenious ways of getting the job done, no matter what. So sorry about the weed eater and rake. By the time Spring arrives you’ll have new tools, so there is that. Maybe pick up a cheap weed eater for a backup. Loved the video, and looking forward to back yard this Spring. Wishing you and your family an awesome year! ❤️
Yes, definitely going to have one in backup!!!
Awesome job! It's bad enough in the heat of summer but in winter, with cold temps and frozen ground, very difficult. I sure hope the neighbors appreciate all the work you put into it.
You're doing a Great Job. Thanks for cleaning up the property 😊😊
Great job on frozen ground . I am sure everyone was pleased. Take care . Deborah 🇨🇦
Wow! That made such a huge difference in this yard. You did a fantastic job. Thank you. 😊 Until next time.
Thank you
I thought you got a shovel where you don’t have to bend so much?
You looked like you were really straining yourself.
That’s a nice bit of property. I can imagine it all fixed up … flowers & pretty trees. A painted fence and new siding. Pressured washed sidewalks & driveway. Oh yeah, it’ll be gorgeous! 😊
I really had to put some effort in because of the frozen ground. Back handled it fine though! Yes - so much potential here!
I've lived in Michigan my entire life and you are the first person I've ever seen do this kind of yard work in the winter. You do great work.
Truck, rake and whipper broke, praise God your wheelbarrow, shovels, hedger and blower still worked! You did a great job on this one. I would love to see the yards you completed in the past. Maybe next spring. Go Lions!
Thanks so much for your hard work. Especially in the freezing snowy cold ❤
More than welcome!!
You did a beautiful job! I’m sure the neighbors love it❤
Awesome 😎 😊😊
Thanks 🤗
Awesome job 👍
Thanks 👍
I'm excited to see how it looks in the spring when the grass comes back!
Less of a lawn mowing. More of a lawn demolition. Good video.
Considering, your tools broke, it's 29°, everything was frozen.. it looks amazing!! You're a blessing to your community
I cannot believe all the hard work you did in the cold!!! You are unbelievable. You make me believe that there is still goodness in humanity.
Isn’t that a neat looking yard and home! Thank you 🌹
Another amazing job done 👍
Thank you!
Okay, Sean, another great job! Always the most difficult but that seems to be who you are. You already know that you're one of my favorites, hands down but I want to list my top 3 landscaping channels, that are must sees but in no particular order: Mid-Life Stockman (Michigan, USA) Does the toughest of properties and does repairs; Flawless Cleaning Services (England, just great with the elderly. Father and son team) and Quick Cuts V2 (no music) from Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. He's the most detailed, almost a little OCD and repairs items like you, when required. Anyone else?
Mowing for Mental Health, Australia; Blade Mate, Australia; Tim the Lawnmower Man, Australia and very OCD! Just to name a few more. I agree Flawless Cleaning is assume ! Debby from Missouri, originally from Michigan
Debbie, thanks for the info, I'll take a look.@@deborahgallagher-vu5hl
Can't beleive i'm on a list with those great people! Thanks so much for the support.
I watch every video from only those as well....but I like Quick Cuts music videos ....I will play them over again just for background music :P
I would add M & D Lawn Care down in Houston... Father and son team who similar to Sean, bless a lot of folks down on their luck, and also do a lot of old fashioned elbow grease as well.
That was a work out for you with the frozen ground and all. It turned out looking soooo much better. A blessing for the neighbors. 😊
Your attention to detail is unequal to all of the other lawn care you tube channels that I have watched! You go above and beyond and that is what makes you so worth watching. You are truly a blessing to all who are the recipients of your services. I pray that your channel continues to grow and flourish. Blessings!!!
Você é um guerreiro. Quebrou uma máquina e você improvisou com a outra para fazer o trabalho. E ficou excelente . Amei 😊
Nice work. 😊I’ll see you finish it in the spring.
Nice job 👍
What he does for these communities is above and beyond what most people could ever ask for. Too bad there aren't more like him. I live in Pennsylvania and believe me there are no one willing to help for free. God Bless him for his kindness and his endless hours he puts in

Wow! What a great transformation! You not only improved the property but the neighborhood too! Happy New Year to you and the family! George from Florida (it is cold here too but not freezing!!!!)
This house looks like you restored its hope of becoming a happy home and cared about again. Bravo! So many people needing homes and so many homes needing people to care for them.
Great clean up. Happy New Year. Be Blessed and Prosperous in the New Year.❤🙏🏽
Wow, that was brutal in more ways than one! Was that a fencepost I saw? I doubt that fence is going to make it through the snow. Great video! Happy New Year! ❤
It’s so sad to see these homes like this, they once housed life and laughter and a life of happiness.
There most be many people out there who would love this home.
Thank you for dressing her again. 🇬🇧❤️
If it's Monday, it's time for another "Mid Life Crisis" video. It was a very BROWN Christmas and New Years here. We got snow in Montreal yesterday (Sunday) some snow. And from tomorrow into Wednesday we will get a few more inches, and maybe some freezing rain. It is currently (24.8F) (-4c) in Montreal at 10 am.
Ladies and Gentlemen, here is one very smart, strategic, fast on his feet thinker. And a lesson on just what happens when you use garden tools on FROZEN ground !! he he he he
You gotta make it work, right ?? As the snow began to fall during the reveal, this might be the last yard clean until Spring. But I am sure we will see many SNOW BLOWER videos coming up. Because once it begins to snow in Michigan, all bets are off, depending on how close you are to the lake, YES ???
Thank you for joining us for this Monday Mid Life Stockman Video. (Y'all come back now, ya hear !!) Who said that ??? Extra points if you get the reference.
Haha! Love it. Always make me smile my man!! Thanks for the support!!
Great job Midlife Stockman, I am amazing by your patience with that frozen ground , vines and endless overgrowth. I am making homemade Turkey soup while thinking geezs I got it easy and look at him work so hard. Curious as to if anyone disapproved of you working on their property, any complaints? Keep being you and pray you know that you are making a big difference in those communities.
Sean it is a good thing you were wearing your "brick kicking boots" today!
haha, got a real laugh over here!
Mr. Midlife! Happy New Year to you and your family. I missed you last week. Another wonderful job under not so great conditions. Please don’t hurt yourself! I hope your weed whacker had a warrantee. I like how you told us the temperature. Maybe add the date and what town you are in?
It’s just the beginning of the snow season. Excited to see what you come up with for content. May I suggest checking out Ryan Hall ya All on you tube. Best weather guy on line. Stay safe! Love the drone shots. See ya next week!
Yes yes yes to sawing down the “volunteer” trees and brush. It makes a huge immediate difference in cleaning up the property. 💯
excellent job wrangling that mess. looks great! looking forward to the adventures of 2024. may your year be fruitful, productive and blessed. ~Cat in FL
Thanks Cat!!!
Excellent job as always! Little bit crazy as well 😂 It’s so cold out and you are still out here transforming these houses! Definitely a Blessing to the area! See you on the next one!
I agree a little bit crazy…
If you weren't wearing blue jeans, I would think that that was filmed in black and white! There is absolutely no color in the yard, fence or sky - everything is white and gray. I'm so glad you're there to bring back a little color and Life to that neighborhood. Keep it up. We appreciate you - and your talents!
I can tell that the ground is truly Frozen because every time you drop the rake, I hear the Clank of it hitting the frozen ground!
I guess working hard like you did warmed you up, but the dirt and grass remained frozen no matter what you did.
Yes for sure. I got warm - but ground certainly didn't!
I have to say I always enjoy your hard work on these neglected properties. I am glad you have a sense of humour when you have equipment failure and you improvise. I am amazed at the many abandoned properties in your area. Who actually owns them and why don’t they get sold and restored? I live in Australia and although we do have a few abandoned properties there are not many. You have done a superb job as per usual. Again you have gone above and beyond to make this lovely old property look liveable again. Hope someone sees the need to renovate and restore these old homes.🇦🇺
I have recently found your channel. What you do for our entertainment is beyond words. Thank you for your time and effort. I appreciate all you do.
At first I found it hard to accept that ANYONE lived here, it looked so desolate. I think this is one of your best transformations you've ever done and I hope you'll be back in the spring like you said.
You don’t see too many North American winter yard makeovers. Nicely done braving the elements! What a difference.
I saw an electric brush for sidewalks and driveways. It is an attachment so it may be gas powered, IDK. I think it could be very helpful on your driveways and sidewalks. I pray that Jesus gives you all the power you need and strengthen you as you scoop every stuck on vine and frozen grass lump. May you be blessed every day of your life for helping Michigan properties come back to life. Thank you.
First of all happy New Year to you and your family and I pray it's an extremely blessed one you all deserve it.🎉❤
What an awesome job! Thank you for working as hard as you are in the weather elements.
I was so happy to turn on RUclips and see a new video posted. Please understand I do know that you work extremely hard to do what you're doing for the neighborhood and surrounding communities. I'm praying that your dream comes true, to be able to buy some of these houses in the future and fix them up for someone else that needs housing. Also hope in the meantime someone will see these houses and buy them now and start revitalizing these communities and providing good housing for people.
Have a blessed day and the rest of your week🙏
Thanks for such lovely words!!
Holy moly man your momma didn’t raise a quitter! Some would have taken it as a sign when your truck broke down, your weed wacker broke, the ground is frozen and you cut the grass with a hedger that another day would be better. Like in the spring when it’s warmer than 30° ! Bless you!
Why are there so many abandoned houses?
I pray that you will continue to be a blessing to the community. Thank you for your service. ❤
Wow, what a massive job for one person to do alone! Especially while filming at the same time!! Thank you for sharing your work with us!!
No need to explain yourself fella. Dont see anyone else out there giving their time up for free, trying their best......awesome brother
I was absolutely astounded at how much work you did and your devotion to your craft. The results were fantastic, despite all of the challenges Mother Nature and your equipment threw at you! And I appreciate your creativity and attention in getting the job done! Bravo!
🌻If what I've seen of your transformations in the past, you always go above and beyond on these properties. Great job no matter what, especially at 30°. 🤓
❤❤ Awesome job. I wish more people had your work ethic and determination to get the job done. ❤❤ Just a little something to help with repairs/replacing things that broke.
Wow!!’ Thank you so so much!!!
Wow! You have made a wonderful job!! Thank you!! BRAVO!!
Nice job! Adapt, improvise, overcome. You did all three.
I think you got to this one just in time. Last minute! Worthwhile outdoors activities and productive way to spend time. I never thought about this in chili weather as a way to stay active. Great idea!
Surely the cold is 'invigorating' and inspiring to not stop, but keep moving. Well done. Thankful for all the hard work you so happily offer and work through all difficulties, come what may. Loved your determination to improvise the 'replacement' for the whip. It worked beautifully.
I'm from So. CA, didn't know yard work of that kind was done in 30 degrees cold. That was very thoughtful of you for the safety of the kids in the neighborhood. I hope you got lots of thanks. God bless you and the work you do.
I really enjoy seeing you completely clean a yard of everything not just grass and leaves. Blessings.
Here is a suggestion for you that might help: clean up a bunch of yards this coming spring/summer and hold those videos for actual showing until the winter months. That way in the winter you keep videos coming, it keeps you from having to get out into the winter elements risking your equipment being damaged and, of course, keeps the pay from YT coming. Ex: if you have 12 hard winter weeks, find 12 yards to do and keep on hold for winter showing. If you can't find enough yards there where you live, then you maybe you could travel to some nearby towns. Just an idea to consider. As for this yard, amazing job as usual!! Especially considering the weather conditions! 👍
This is 100% my plan for the coming spring/summer. I also will be taking some trips this winter to do a few properties! Thanks for the comment.
