  • In this weeks vlog we finally face removing the burned truck that held all our personal possessions that was destroyed in the farm fire back in 2019.
    We continuing to clean up the rubbish pile on the farm to make more room for the goats birthing area.
    We review the Annke WS500 security camera system which allows us to watch the goats and our property from 8 cameras while out and about.

    Tho it was hard, taking on the debris pile i imagine added to your resilience and helped you move through your grief, bless you.

    I have just watched this video. That does not mean that I prefer to watch RUclips vlogs on Mondays. I never watch them as soon as they get released. I transfer them to my husband's mobile phone and watch them later whenever I can.So Sundays or Mondays are equal to me. I never skip one of your vlogs. I watch them all in the end. I like you, Sandra and Molly very much. I feel for you. Sandra's illness, the fire,so much misfortune. But you are all alive and together. Things that the fire took away are just that, things. I know it is easy to talk when you have not suffered a similar loss. But then you look at TV images from Turkey, all those deaths and you must feel glad that you still have your loved ones with you.
    Late congratulations for your birthday. 52! You are still very young. I have a nephew about the same age, so you see.
    Love Filipa.

    So sorry to hear about Sandra's situation.
    Abt the fire, the memories, the grief: You got through it and you've come a long way since. Stop for a moment and think about that. Think about where you were then and where you are now. It is a telling testimony to your resilience, your strength and your character. There's nothing you cannot do.

    Hi Alex, Sandra and Molly, we have been watching your channel for a while. It seems you lot encounter shock after shock your resilience must be extreme. Murphy's law in quadruple times. We have so much respect for you all. We ourselves move to Portugal in March. Even though we are not the youngest, I would like to help you out when we are settled in, we bought a property near Figueiro dos Vinhos. I can do carpentry, welding ,plumbing , electric and masonry we would like to meet up one time if you like. Regards and keep up the good work. Maurice and Ingrid.

    We lost our house in a fire in CA. in Oct 2019. We lost all our pictures of our 29-year-old son who passed away from Melanoma in 2000. We lived in a caravan for over two years, while they rebuilt our home. It was the second worst thing I have ever gone through. I am so sorry this happened to you. You are making a beautiful farm. God bless Sandra. I hope you will feel better soon.

    Hey Yall, Thanks for your honesty in sharing some very difficult and quite painful circumstances. Whether its a tornado, wildfire, earthquake, hurricane or whatever its tough to live through. My hope is that it does provide some measure of closure and healing by sorting out the rubble. Sandra glad you now have an official diagnosis so continue to hang in there. Quinta Fonta da Pipa is turning into a showplace. Too bad I cant come over for a few weeks. Randy/GA (USA)

    The Goats are a wonderful idea. Fires are devestating when you lose all your treasured things; things that are irreplacable. But, as my Grandmother said to her 6 children as she gathered them around her in the cattle soak, watching her house and all her wonderful things go up in flames," It could have been worse; I could have lost one of you." I'm surprised you are getting rid of the bath. Your wife could well do with using that for cold /ice baths for treating her Lymes disease and inflamatory reactions. (Wimhof Method). So sorry for her. It's no joke, so I hope she can find relief. Many afflicted with Lymes disease refer to nutrition as having noticable advantages and eating an anti-inflamatory diet has certain benefits in dealing with the pain and physical restrictions.

    • @FontedaPipaPortugueseFarmLife

      Oh we know we are lucky, i almost lost the tractor in the fire as i got stuck in a eucalyptus fire trying to put it out with flames burning my legs as i struggled to get out.. but with the builder and after so many years struggling after losing 99% of our money it is a constant struggle but a struggle we wont give up on, you keep pushing things start to move forward. We all feel so much better not seeing the truck everyday.
      We have more baths, metal ones that one was made from cement. Thanks for the tips for Lymes, we will read up on it.
      We hope in a week or two to announce a project we have been working on since the fire, looks like it might be happening.🙂

    Hello, I've got Lyme since 2002, it's been rough but I've learned some things along the way in terms of managing it. Correct diet and supplementation is of utter importance. First of all, sugar is your worst enemy. Large enough dose of vitamin D is also essential for autoimmune problems, at least 5000iu per day.
