    Hi Beauties,
    Welcome to this 'Day In The Life,' where I open up about the ups and downs of caravan life. Although I love the freedom and flexibility of living the caravan, I'm struggling a little with the practical aspects of managing the storage of items and organising personal belongings for myself, Ryan and the kids. If you have any advice for me, I would love to know!
    Also join us in another house hunting adventure! Fingers crossed we find our dream home soon.
    I'd love to know how you are all doing! Let me know in the comments :)
    Love Fern x

    We are a bit confused Fern - why did you sell your lovely house? We heard it was « « magnifique et belle » » We are new to your community…
    We wish you all the best. Keep strong.

    Might be a good idea to put a sheet over your clothes. On a rail, they can get really dusty.

    Would the kids be interested in learning to iron their own clothes?

  • @mamazeno1672
    @mamazeno1672 Год назад +3

    We had clothes stored in a storage unit and within 2 weeks time mice had built nests in a few
    Of the pockets.
    I have never been able to put my hands in pockets ever since then. 😝 LOL

    Hi Fern, I love how real you are. It's nice keeping up with you all. Hang in there. One day you'll laugh at the adventure you are having and say, "Remember when"? Your skin looks so amazing always glowing. Have a great week!

    I’ve been gardening since I was a young girl. It’s always been a great hobby/passion for me. I could not be happy living somewhere without at least a bit of ground to dig in and create a beautiful garden. Also need some personal space about me - and a full length mirror! 😄😘

    So sorry Fern couldn't be one of the first to see the vedio; had a massage appointment this morning then went shopping.
    Just got home and put on your vlog; I don't know Fern I think Ryan might be a secret gypsy he really likes caravan life. LoL
    I feel for you my clothes are very important part of my life; I was sad for you when you had to leave your dressing room with it's little patio.
    I hear you when you say that you've got to go back to basics sometimes. Been there done that; turning 59 next month and comfort is the name of game for me now.
    Good luck You, Ryan, Seth; and Nancy are in my thoughts and prayers.
    I now you'll all have a great summer, traveling, beach times and visiting family.
    I do hope you'll be able to all be settled in the fall .
    Love you guy's! ❤

    That was hilarious when you realized you were following a stranger!!! What are the odds??!!! HAHA! I must admit, I got so excited too when I saw those gates & the anticipation of hearing all about it! LOL! None the less, when you do find that special place, you'll both know it, and knowing the two of you, you will make it beyond special and amazing, just like your last place!!! 🏡Hugs!❤

  • @jeanettedemosthenous2685
    @jeanettedemosthenous2685 Год назад +5

    Hope I'm wrong but I'm not entirely convinced that you are happy with your current living situation. It is entirely different for Ryan who has his work, cycling, training etc. Women make the nest and fill it with home comforts and living in such a small space is not ideal for a family of 4 and 2 dogs. Hope you can find your next home very soon. My comment is made with the very best intentions. x

  • @imsojazzed
    @imsojazzed Год назад +6

    Fern this vlog was such a delight better than a produced tv show, really! It was quite real, authentic and revealing every day life is good so just continue being yourselves. I laughed aloud (unusual for my very reserved personality) and my significant other rushed in to see what I found so funny. Of course, still laughing, I shared that segment where you were holding Ryan’s coffee cup and commenting on the myriad of coffee drips. So funny! Anyways, as is said improperly, your wardrobe of clothes is lovely and need to be protected. Please purchase a few inexpensive black garment bags to ensure your clothes aren’t dusty, dirtied or damaged. And even just request some clear dress bags from the dry cleaners, please please. Love ya!

    Women have to do all the housework and drudgery that keeps a family going…….and to me, the rewards are having a home to fuss with, to make pretty, to enjoy the relaxing pass times that make a house a home. The gardening for instance……. Ryan needs to understand these little things are necessary to our peace of mind……

    Gosh Fern I'm really feeling your pain. I get you completely. You have to get another home soon otherwise you may be risking your mental health and general everyday happiness. Regarding spending your time gardening and pottering around in the garden if this makes you happy you need to be doing this. Gardening is for all ages not just older people. I started gardening as a tiny tot with my Poppa and still absolutely love it. You have to do what gives you happiness

    We are in the process of moving, my family and I, not so fun after awhile. Everything is packed and you have new places to get used to or new patterns in your daily routines...gets to you after awhile. Can't wait to see how beautiful you make your new place where ever that will be.

  • @mozit8063
    @mozit8063 Год назад +2

    Ryans coffee cup ha ha . I hate drips, its a thing with me . I have to wipe the drip away every sip I have, embarrasing when out . Fern, so get what you said about challenging ourselves. Some people happy to stay in the same house, place for ever. My partner and I have move countries, houses and looking to eventually retire to Spain. We love that challenge and excitement of new place, new people and what adventure we have ahead. We are older and it doesnt scare me at all. Go find your happy place and all the very best of luck to you both xx

    Enjoyed the vlog so much! Totally agree with everything you said. I'm also fan of minimal way of living. And you always cheer me up. There is a Lidl 5min walk from my home so I'm there so often. My favourite dessert is Moelleux au chocolat Deluxe. You're doing great guys 🎉 Have a gorgeous week ahead 🌺🌷❤️

  • @marie4920
    @marie4920 Год назад

    Thanks for taking us with you. Always a pleasure🌷
    Queues in Lidl are international, no matter the country. I don’t get it why 🙄
    I often hear people don’t like their feet, as you said. I love my feet; maybe because there is a lot to love ( my size is 42-43) 🤣😂🤣
    Make the most out of your caravan life, it will be over sooner than you realize👍

  • @weemabelandmaud6285
    @weemabelandmaud6285 Год назад +2

    You are all doing amazing 😀. If all the houses that you view help for comparison that’s a great thing. And if the previous house keeps in your mind, and you still see the positives about it ~ it may well be the one. When you have to drive everywhere ~ what’s another few extra miles? / minutes ? Having space and peace will be wonderful for you and your family xx Best of luck to you all and huge thanks for taking us all along on your adventure. Xx hugs xx😘

    Hi Fern can totally empathise with you,I also have a ‘Ryan’ who could live out a carrier bag ,he drinks his tea with previous teabags in his cup🤢😆 , but I’m definitely a ‘Fern’ I love a potter X

    @susanmcgregor3787 Год назад

    Best wishes on your house hunt Fern. What is meant for you won’t pass you by. Hope the next house “home” you look at is the one... that makes your heart skip a beat, and is in the perfect price range and location.
    And gardening is for all ages ... pottering outside is good for the soul ... even just growing small pots of Basil and Thyme or Mint for tea. And a pot of geraniums in the sun, near a door.

    This was a delight, you made me laugh, and I don’t laugh that easily. Hang in there like everyone has said you’ll know it when the right house comes don’t rush into it. Keep reminding yourself, “ I’m on vacation”. This is what you mentioned in your blog that the summer will be like a summer vacation. Footloose and fancy free 😊Ryan is enjoying every minute of it.
    I was thrilled to hear that you’re not ironing everything✋. There’s so much more fun things to do. I never iron I used to however, I learnt very fast to take them out of the dryer to hang them up or give a shake lay them flat fold them right away while they’re still warm. The only thing I do iron is rayon, and linen or linen and cotton mix and I iron those just before I wear them.
    Bye for now lots of love and happy house hunting.💝

  • @mozit8063
    @mozit8063 Год назад +1

    I understand about the ironing thing. I used to do the same including towels, underwear !! jeez ! Anyway , now that im older and boys are living away from home , I dont iron much. Honestly theres no need to . I think this will change your mind on spending time ironing. I love you and Ryans life. Youve just gone for it and I admire you both. Love this journey you are on xx
