    The heavy breathing in the music set to the visual of all the hard work/digging is funny!! Love your videos!!

    So impressive the amount of work that the two of you completed, such a commitment to your ultimate goal of a dry livable environment. Bless both of you for teaching your community what a true work ethic is. Your investment of blood, sweat, and hopefully minimal tears will forever stand as a testament to the pact you made to each other, and your relationship will always be stronger for the effort. 🥳

      Yes... work ethic is an inspirational part of what Kylie and Guy do. It inspires me to work smarter not just harder and I certainly hope it inspires others to do the same. It feels to me we have lost a lot of that in more societies across the globe. Too many people want to experience 'rewards' without having to work hard to get them. That never ends up very well for most of those people, in a variety of ways. That is sad.
      Resilience and worth ethic aren't things you just naturally have. You have to choose to develop them and that takes persistence, picking yourself up when you don't think you can keep going and keep building. Of course rest and play are an important component of this also.

    You know the magnitude of the job isn’t realized by most people until you see this time lapse video. What an enormous sense of accomplishment you both must feel. Relief as well… great job!

    I was exhausted just watching this video and amazed by the amount of work you two did. Great job! Note to self, never buy an old stone house. 😊

    After all the trials, errors, setbacks and materials sourcing, the final result is rewarding. Next is laying the lime tiles.
    But the satisfaction is the dryness, decreased humidity, breathable floors and walls and in time warm floors. No mold. More light, less decay, rot and shifting. Now floors are level. Foundations have increased support. Walls are better supported and less crumbly. An interior more appealing to the senses.
    Literally "blood, sweat & tears". Well done you 2.

    I've loved and admired the perseverance the two of you have shown over the last couple of years, which must have felt like decades at times. One of the best part was listening to Kylie's exiting "bye" of each episode. Such emotion conveyed wiith a single word. Best of luck with the upstairs reno.

    That was an unbelievable amount of back breaking work! Once cold weather sets in and you are able to heat those rooms from under foot heating, and the dampness is gone...and the musty smell, then you'll appreciate the labor. This video really shows the hard labor that was involved. You REALLY deserved that short seaside vacation! Thanks for sharing!

    • @permissiontoshine
      @permissiontoshine Год назад

      They definitely deserved that lovely mini-vacation they shared with us (which I loved - the food was ASTONISHING and the place so beautiful). Looking forward to you guys giving yourself some more of those and sharing some of it with us when you feel up to it.

    The cartilage in my knees, or lack there of, is screaming just watching Kylie do all that work. Grats to you both for all the work you've done. It's going to be brilliant when you get finished. I hear you Guy about setting your own finger. I have a finger that has been jammed so many times that it now dislocates when I tuck in sheets, or tuck in a kitchen towel, or stub it on a doorframe, etc. It's never pleasant when it happens.

  • @sparrowkay

  • @lisamadison2671
    @lisamadison2671 Год назад +1

    Thought I never missed a video but somehow didn't know you dislocated your finger! As a young girl playing volleyball with my older brothers and their friends I dislocated my first finger. One brother held me while the other "popped" it back into place. I have since dislocated most fingers and shoulders and have put them all back in place myself. Glad you were able to buckle down and do it yourself.

  • @marge_innovera915

    I'm continually impressed with your work ethic and dedication to getting this right.
    Just a side comment on Portugese medicine: I went to the clinic in Evora with food poisoning and a bad reaction to an antibiotic a couple of years ago while on a Bike tour. They had me all straightened out and on my way to recovery very efficiently despite the fact that I don't speak Portugese. I was very impressed.

    A dislocated finger- I had exactly the same experience! I felt calm as I pulled at the finger as I just didn't want to have to go to the hospital with it. I even let my friend have a go, but she didn't have the strength to do it. I'm still amazed that I managed to get it relocated... It's permanently got a bend in it now, though.. :D

  • @gaynor3976
    @gaynor3976 Год назад +2

    PHEW. That was a lot of work you both did seeing it all put together in a ff. Think Kylie might need a new knee pad after all that. You were brave Guy putting your finger back into place, we don't land well as we get older do we. That floor is looking fabulous, now can't wait to see the tiles go down. Happy Easter to you both xxxx

It's been interesting to watch both projects on RUclips. I'd like to see more of how you fair living in a tent. Is it scary during the night or during storms? Do the cats sleep with you? Do you have critters or creepy crawlies invading your space?

All the best, Lewis.

    Related to the extensive work for the cellar floor was the perimeter drainage that you did - by hand - around the outside of the building. When it's all complete you will have a dry, snug place, warm in winter and cool in summer, for comfortable living. Your hard labor will have paid off!

    Just a thought (and one you've may have already had) but giving your chickens access to the dirt you dug out of the house will turn it into soil (GOLD) with the chickens natural scratching, the addition of garden cast offs and the girls "natural" additions in a fairly short amount of time. I use my girls yard to collect all the trimmings from the property and they give me wonderful compost for my garden by the barrow full.
