    Hi Susan, I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel. I absolutely love watching your videos. It gave me a thrill to see the picture by John Cunningham you found. I live on the island of Arran where he painted it. In fact, the view hasn't really changed much! Many artists came to Arran to paint in Corrie around the time he was there, but I didn't know about this artist. It's great to learn about him. I think the picture looks beautiful in your home.

    My dear girl, my failures are my badges of honor. My failures show how brave I was to have tried something new and scary. My successes cement my failures. By that I mean that when I succeed I have the courage to try again and perhaps fail. I do believe you to be a very courageous young woman. Your family should be very proud of you. I really enjoy your videos.

It doesn't matter what the topic is, there is always something of interest to me, and you make your presentations so pleasant and enjoyable. However, when you wind things up and invite us back to visit next week, I almost feel like crying, for some reason. Seems like a week is too long to be without our friend! Rest assured, I couldn't imagine not returning for the wonderful support you offer us. And Desi is so cute he breaks my heart!

    Those people that had seen your channel were not your tribe. I have to tell you something. I have never really cared for beach scene pictures but when I saw this picture, it really brought up some strong feelings in me. No picture has done this to me. I felt such joy and happiness from looking at this painting. What a treasure! I also wanted to tell you that the note also has a wonderful scripture on it. Colossians 3:15 says: And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. Please give Desi a hug & a kiss from me. Thank you 😍💖🐶

I am so happy to see and all our gals and gents here tonight!!!

    I wish I had a purpose I was passionate about. I pray daily that my purpose is revealed. I also tend to focus on my failures on ignore my successes. Thank you for the reminder that I need to be more aware of my thoughts.

    Dear Susan, I missed watching this yesterday but was thrilled to view it this morning. I have to tell you, while I love all the types of videos you produce from fashion to decor, I absolutely love when you speak from the heart with deep emotion and gift us or at least me with something meaningful to hold on to. I watched this video twice and actually cried. Not because I was upset but because I allowed myself to receive your message and relate to it. Thank you for all of your touching messages that are so very meaningful. Please know how very much they are appreciated! You are a treasure!
    Biggest of hugs to you and Desi.

I only just discovered you in the last few weeks and look forward to watching your "works of art" each day. You are like the Mr. Rogers for grown women. You inspire in me the same feelings of joy, coziness, peace, inspiration and desire to learn and grow that he did when I watched him as a child. I've also been enjoying your music which you linked on previous videos. What a treat! Thank you to you beautiful lady and your sweet sweet boy Desi.

One of the things I bought today is a coffee table exactly just like my grandma used to own and I paid just 8 euros for it, unbelievable but true. Thrifting is magical for me!

    I know I’d be beyond thrilled if I had met you. Those people showed a lack of joy. You always find such beautiful art when you thrift. That pinched top pitcher from Williamsburg was a larger one than I had years ago. I haven’t been in a thrift store in many years. I used to go a lot with my Mother. My favorite things to find were little pitchers. I had a collection of them but I eventually got rid of them. I’m sorry I did. Now if I want something old I go to eBay. My favorite thing I bought were poodle bookends. I also have a porcelain tray by Nippon on my bureau that holds some small perfumes. My favorite Christmas item was a pair of gold deer made in the 1960’s. I had a pair that my Aunt Sylvia had given my Mother. I eventually inherited them. Somehow they were lost about 5 years ago. I searched eBay & found them from 2 different sellers. I was so happy. Have a wonderful Halloween. I don’t get any more kids coming to my apartment. It’s so sad. I loved dressing for Halloween as a kid. My Mother sewed me some amazing costumes. Love you, Lucy

    While watching your video with the Christmas finds, a thought popped into my mind. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if Susan did a impromptu mini Christmas music video. Would love to hear you singing our Christmas favorites. One of these days I’ll get around to purchasing a CD of yours!

    Love seeing you and Desi ! He is such a handsome gentleman in his bow ties . Does he know how many of us are in love with him ? 🤗. You found wonderful treasures to fill your home. I do counted cross stitch so it's fun to find frames or fun things to finish projects on at the thrift stores. Hope you and Desi have a peaceful, fun , relaxing week ahead.

    Thank you for sharing your thrift store finds, your precious and handsome boy, Desi, and your wisdom with us! My teenage daughter loves to browse thrift stores and antique stores with me. My favorite find was a tiny porcelain boar with a chipped foot that even though he was priced at $5, I knew he needed to come home with us. My daughter found a pair of earrings (also priced $5) and the store clerk gave us the porcelain boar for free! He now sits in a place of honor among a few other miniature animal figures on a corner shelf in our living room. It’s the little joys that we seek out each day that make all the difference. I’m by no measure a success by the standards of today’s society. But when I look at my daughter and the beautiful thoughtful and talented young woman she is becoming, I know that my husband and I are doing something right. ❤️ I don’t believe in failure. Each day is another opportunity to try again and find success in the little things that truly matter. ❤️

    I'm sitting here with a cup of tea, it's a beautiful sunny warm spring day and have had the pleasure of watching your heart-warming video. I love thrift stores, half the fun is finding a pre-loved item that resonates, appeals and really adds character to a home. Generic, mass produced items don't have the warmth and story attached. As always, lovely to see you and Desi!

    Navigating through life takes strength and grit. I think we've got this. You always find such treasures on your shopping trips. I go looking just about every other day while on my walks. Love vintage books. Found one from 1892 and 1906 with cloth and ivory plated covers. And, ummm, "Are You Hungry Tonight?" Elvis's favorite recipes. Yeah, I like Elvis. ;) I donate back often so I can buy more.

    Gosh you are the most profoundly moving lady Susan. Many times you have helped me through certain difficulties as you go through something too. You are right we can dwell in gloom but we need to focus on what we did right and feels good. There are many paths we get to choose. None are wrong but other ways there. They all lead to us to something, somewhere. I choose to accept what's going on now for me to give myself a break. I was resistant and down on myself. Have had to learn what I can and can't do and to pace myself. I am finding what I can to help with my mobility issues and it's feeling more hopeful. A grocery trolley with brakes with a seat. Better than a walker for me at 55. Got crutches to keep my arms moving other times, There's a brain arm connection so keep moving those arms. Learnt to be more selective of what can be done. Accepting of what we cant.
    I am truly grateful and thankful to you Little Poet you are a blessing to us all. 😇🙏
    P.S I bought the most beautiful pink fluffy top with rinestones around the neck. Love it so much and looked perfect on with many compliments on that day. Love and light Little Poet 😍👍

    Desi is really the sweetest little guy. I love the treasures you find and especially the red teapot. Oh and failures, I think sometimes I look back and laugh at some of them. Especially when I was young and trying new things. I am not a sewer, and in a sewing class at school I made this purple shirt. It was actually horrible with dolman sleeves, and I kept it for awhile. Actually kind of funny. I love your channel. Take care.

    In a past video you mention most viewers comment when they have left something and you were not quite sure why that was?
    Well, whether you realize it or not you have a God given gift. You are a natural therapist & encourager.
    I haven’t necessarily quit anything, married 40 yrs, raised 7 kids & now struggling to drastically downsize. My husband and I r staying in our large home, wanting only want we need. For me, I had it in my mind minimalist living was the way to live these days. So many treasures I’ve sold or given away. Through watching ur videos & ur passion and emotion you have through items & ur surroundings really interested me.
    I realized I’m NOT passionate or emotional about the items in my home. Once I complete downsizing and upgrading bathrooms, kitchen & things, I really want to rethink about adding back some decor items that really move me. Things that bring the best out emotionally, bring calm & even energy. I loved thrifting, but had stopped. Thank you for inspiring me and others to make every bit it life👒🕊️💐🪺🍁✨🌈☀️🌺 matter…..even the items we surround ourselves with. 🍓🫐🫖🎼🪁⛺️🎈🎀🛀👩🏻‍❤️‍👨🏽🧵🧶

    I'm so excited to go to the thrift stores!! I can purchase treasures at a small price and I never know what cool items I might find!! I love the wooden bowl that you found, I have a wooden dough bowl on my coffee table filled with sea glass (beach treasure) some shells, and old glass door knobs from my old house! It's fun! It seems anything traumatic in our past stands out so clear in our memory - all of the good everyday things don't stand out, as much - once we are older, slowing down some, we are more mindful of each moment and have time to focus on gratitude for each gift life presents us with - it's an important lesson, for young and old, to slow down, be present and notice all that's good! 👍👏💗
