- Hello from Rhode Island, friends!
I took a few weeks off from posting videos because we were packing everything up in Utah to prepare for our cross country move to New England. I'm feeling so rested after a busy week of moving in and getting the fur babies used to their new home. To say I'm thriving and loving it here is an understatement. I'm so excited to explore more as the weather warms up :)
In this video I wanted to give a life update and answer some of your questions about why we chose to move to Rhode Island, why we went from 1 to 3 cats in the span of a few months and a health update. Thank you for being here, friends 💗 Please let me know what content you want to see as we head into Spring! 🌷

This might sound a bit weird but I honestly love the inconsistence. It's always a nice surprise when you upload and it always happens to the right time.
This! 😁
Agreed!
Agreed!
Yes! It’s always a nice surprise that brightens my day! 🌸🌻🌼
Yes exactly!!
You should put that on something, “Why have one cat when you can have three?” Love it! 🐈🐈🐈
I absolutely LOVE your quote of, “Having more animals basically means having more magic in your life.” ☺️👍🏻 🪄
Oh Desi, this comment will probably get buried but I have chronic Lyme and mold illness and MTHFR too! I’ve been dealing with it for the past ten years. It’s so unbelievably difficult but I feel like those of us with chronic illness have a special peek into how special life is on the good days and how the little things mean so much and are what really brings joy in the hard times. From watching your channel for so long I know you’ve already known this but on this journey it brings you even deeper into that knowing. You aren’t alone. ❤
God bless you for having the grace to be so wise .
100%! 💗
I have chronic Lyme and mold illness also. It's so challenging, you're not alone!
@@DancinChica365 hugs to you! I’m so sorry we have to go through it but it’s so comforting we are in it together. ❤️🩹
I have those too, and you are so right. Theres just a spiritual deepening that happens with these type of illnesses (for some of us) that is indescribable and for which I am grateful, despite the intense challenges it brings.
Hi Desi!
I just wanted you to know that you are probably my favorite content creator. You remind me to look for the magic in everything and to stay curious about life and love.
Even though you haven't been able to upload as frequently this past year, my heart soared every time you did. Thank you for continuing to make things for us, even when you weren't feeling well. You didn't have to, but the fact that you did fills me with so much gratitude.
Please keep doing what brings you joy. Through joy you bring light to so many people's lives. (Also please keep showing the kitties and D'Artagnan. If I could have three cats and a dog I absolutely would, so I'm living vicariously through you.)
I hope you are able to make the most of your New England adventure and this coming spring season! :)
Perfectly perfect 💖🌟
So exquisitely said, beautiful Desi you are truly lovely inside and out and wishing you an abundance of Joy and healing🩷
hello darling desi I loved your video of the new merch, great and I loved it, when you can I would love to see your room tour, and I hope you enjoy New England a lot this spring. 🌸🍄🌸
There are so many shelter cats that deserve a home too. I hope one day breeders are a thing of the past!
I think you should call the “Merch”- “Lit Laundry or “Literature Laundry” I love everything you came up with. I’m so excited for this new chapter!!
IN SHAMBLES THAT'S LITERALLY THE MOST WONDERFUL CHOICE
I love your idea!! ❤
Literary Laundry to make it rhyme 😆

OMG I'm dying!!! LOL!!! Love it!
I was born in New Hampshire. Trust me, no one does the seasons like the east coast. Autumn is pure magic there. 💕
The west has more evergreen trees, and the east the ones that turn into paint brushes

Thank YOU Desi for still being here and uploading for us. I'm very grateful for that and appreciate and enjoy every single video of yours to the fullest. You are amazing, stay exactly as you are🤍🌸
I don’t know about you, but this reminds me of a golden girls episode where Dorothy knew she was sick and all the doctors she went to told her she didn’t have anything until she got to the last doctor and he ended up telling her that she had some thing and she was finally validated for how she was feeling. I think it’s a really good message to not give up if you really feel like there’s something wrong.
I watched that one not long ago. She actually had chronic fatigue syndrome in it, which is what I have and what most long term long covid cases turn into, so actually very on point. And unfortunatley its still only taught about in 5% of medical schools, despite it affecting an insane amount of Americans...now way way more with long covid sadly.
I do remember that episode. Not everything fits in a box.
I’m so grateful that you finally found a diagnosis - I know how frustrating it is to have doctors telling you there’s nothing wrong with you when you know there is. Somehow just knowing what you’re up against can give you more strength to carry it
Yeah but functional medicine...
Desi, you were born to make videos. Your time is appreciated and so is your personality. The time you take on filming and editing shows in your work and we love you❤ and the kitties, and also Jared 😁
Hi Desi! I lived with Lyme for 6 years and eventually cured it through my diet and lots of self care. CBD drops helped me a lot as well when there was a flare up. I’m vegan now with a low sugar diet and I feel better than I ever have! I’m sharing this to hopefully give you hope that this too shall pass. There was a gift in the journey in that I can now read my body and intuitively feel what it needs. I have a better relationship with it. My body told me what I should eat and that’s different for each of us. I wish you the best on your journey of healing and know you can do this because of your positive attitude! 😊🌷🧚🧚🧚🧚🧚🧚Sending much love, Monique🌻
I have met a few women who used diet and self care to put Lyme disease into remission! ❤

Welcome to New England from me and my THREE cats! Keep in mind that we are having an incredibly mild winter, but you never know what to expect from March!
Long time new Englander here from mass, I would like to make some suggestions, please visit Vermont ( basically the default for cozy and beautiful, especially fall) , if you want a beautiful small town living by the ocean 🌊 on an island, I recommend bar harbor Maine ( so pretty, I mean it will take your heart away) . The white mountains in New Hampshire is also a must. These three places are in my personal opinion some of the most beautiful places you will ever see. Also lime is crazy here in New England, throw your clothes in the dryer on high heat immediately after being outside, even in your back yard , get a lice comb and always check your hair , behind your ears and shower , I know it sounds extreme, but the ticks here are not to be take lightly. Please stay safe. Love your work and your videos. Have fun in New England. ❤
So sad that such beautiful country has such terrible disease causing insects anywhere there is nature.
It's 5 am here on the East Coast and I couldn't be happier getting this Desi nugget this early in the morn! ☀ oh man sorry you went through this series of illness Desi! 😢 I am so happy you are on the track to healing! You are a beautiful soul and deserve to feel like a healthy fairy! 🧚♀️ Loving the “merch” as well super cute sweatshirts/crewnecks. Yeah I can’t wait for spring as well! 🌸
I had the same thought!!
I am so thankful that you know what is going on with your health. Your cats are adorable and why not three cats? I will order a green gables sweatshirt when they are available. I will call it my “Desi Wear” instead of merch. Thanks for the update. I hope you feel 100% soon😊💕
I love the name “Desi Wear” !
I live for Darling Desi videos!! They are the high light of my day! Glad you are safe in your new home. Will miss the meetups, though!
Awww Emma meetups won’t be the same without you! 🥹💗

This video makes me feel so seen. For two years I've been struggling with chronic back pain and it's been so difficult to get answers. Thank you for sharing your journey. It means so much to me. 💗
Hey Dezi! I just wanted to say that you should never feel like you have to apologize for taking care of yourself. Because of your videos, I have, very slowly, started to prioritize myself. Everything that you do seems to be aesthetically pleasing but also a form of self care. I appreciate your videos so much. Honestly, you could not post a video for a year and I would still be waiting to hear your stories and see the beauty of life that you show me. Thank you for putting so much thought into us, as your friends from afar. We love you, and all we want is for you to be safe and healthy.
Amen. ❤ Taylor, you said it perfectly! 🥰

Desi, you have enriched all of our lives so much. In a way I hardly understand until you post again. Something specific I love about you and Jared is that I don’t notice that you don’t have kids, because you’re just genuinely living your best life that’s so enriched with all the smallest pleasures. You don’t have to have some big story of why or why not. You are just simply existing child free. It inspires me a lot as we have chosen that path as well and sometimes I find a lack of purpose and fulfillment and like everyone else is finding it in kids. Thank you for every single season reminding me of the beauty! Can’t wait to read all the spring books with you. ALSO NE IS BEAUTIFUL GREAT CHOICE!!!!

Hi Desi, I just wanted to say that the amazing thing about your videos is that they are truly timeless. Do not feel like you need to upload at specific time because I think everyone that watches your videos, goes back to them over and over again because they are beautiful and nostalgic, like listening to an song that reminds you of a summer 10 years ago. Your videos will always be cherished by us and when you upload a video I know that people probably wait watch them, when it's quiet and can watch all the way through

As a cat lover and parent, I can tell you (and anyone else who wonders) that cats are little fur angels sent to keep us happy and to learn patience, as it seems you've had to with Binx. I've learned so much patience with cats that all I can do is say, your kitties are beautiful and obviously happy.
Absolutely Margaret. There's nothing like a cat - so much more affectionate and charming than a dog.
Dogs are angels. cats are mean an evil.
@@MrRKWRIGHT are you stupid? Dogs are loyal, loving unconitionally, pure creatures. Catr are mean, stupid and evil. Dogs save humans lives every day. Dogs have human intelligence!
@@MrRKWRIGHT also cats spread toxoplasmosis.
All my (10) cats were strays from the mean streets of Saint Paul, Minnesota. We never paid a breeder, the feral and abandoned are the most lovable (imo). I post about my pet children and they love me for it. Cats are great. Thanks for having three fur babies. It takes strength and mental stamina to be cat owner.
Thank you for sharing all this with us. I’m sure it isn’t easy to show this level of vulnerability. You don’t ever need to apologize for being inconsistent with uploading or not being on socials enough. How else would you find the energy necessary to create such beautiful things in the first place if you didn’t have them in your heart? Our health, physical and mental, should always come first.
I cannot wait to see what you come up with next, all the adventures to neighboring states in search of a more permanent home, the cat, book and slow living content. Have a great day today ✨
As someone who has an extreme fear of parasites, internal or otherwise, I really admire your bravery, and your ability to be vulnerable for us. Thank you for making my day 😊
As a Rhode Islander, I hope you enjoy your time here!!! I left the ocean for a few years and felt the world calling me back to these sandy shores. I don’t think i could ever leave again
I'm always happy when you upload.
Greetings from Germany
I’m glad you’re getting health answers! I got Lyme in 2020 and it’s so so frustrating. Doctors don’t listen, everything is covid, and quite frankly it’s hard to advocate for yourself when you feel like poo. Living in RI sounds amazing and I can’t wait to see future videos around all the charming towns ❤

I’m so glad you got the answers you needed and I sincerely hope you are feeling better! You do what you need to do. We all love you. Your content makes people happy and it’s absolutely worth waiting for.🥰🥰🥰🥰
omg Desi I don’t know how you can tell us this news about your health and still keep a smile on your face but I honestly envy your power and you attitude, you’re seriously one of the purest souls on this earth I hope you get better soon 🫶🏼
I'd like seeing more spring vlogs
Baking
And talking about books and Spring activities 🎉
A Tote Bag for book lovers to carry our new books in. And the go to our favorite place to read or on a picnic 🌷✨️
Hi from Connecticut! 👋
I hope you are enjoying the beautiful snow today! It's part of the reason New England is so special...the unpredictable weather (and I'm not being sarcastic). So glad you are here and can enjoy our magical corner of the US! ❤
I'm in CT too and when she said she can always find an excuse to wear a sweatshirt, I thought, 'Oh, she's new to New England humidity.' 😂
We live in berlin ct. Lots of cows and horses! Look me up.
@@nettiesantos4664 Hi Nettie, I'm in Plainfield, CT! :)
@@AMarie333 Hi Alyssa Marie, I live in Plainfield, CT!
@@MGATigger I'm in Wallingford! We're all pretty close.
Yay! Can’t wait to watch this!!
I'm a new viewer, but I'd like to welcome you to little Rhody! When the weather gets a little nicer, I would suggest visiting the Blithewold Mansion & Arboretum and Wickford Village. I'm a librarian so I have to add that we also have quite a few beautiful, historic libraries that are lovely to walk around - Cumberland Public used to be a monastery and the Providence Athenaeum is stunning. I hope that you feel well enough to get the chance to explore all of new England, but especially Rhode Island! There are so many hidden gems here.
Your channel has been my safe place and favourite corner of the Internet since I found you, you put so much love into what you create and spread such a calming, caring, and inspiring vibe. I'm so glad you've been prioritising your mental health and making videos when it felt right to you, health always comes first, and when it come to us, I think i talk for everyone when I say that we'll always support you and want only to see you healthy and happy. Much much love to you and Jared 🌱🐇💐

Your cats are adorable and simply gorgeous! ❤️
Desi, your videos are always so heartwarming and inspiring -- I don't know how you do it, but you manage to have such a comforting presence, like chatting with a best friend. I am so sorry about all the health issues you've been dealing with, and I hope this year ahead is a time of healing for you. Your kitties will definitely help you along!
You are an inspiration!
Thank you so much for your videos
I'm so sorry to hear about your health problems, Desi! I hope that specialists and doctors can help you and I just wish you all the best! Sending you a big hug and all my love❤️
Oh God it was just a few hours before that I was wondering how Desi might be doing and how would the move be going. And here is your video! I truly believe the universe heard me. Sending loads of love 💗🌻🌼
I love your videos they are so cosy!
Love these type of videos🥰
I'm part of the 100% watch club 😸 I'm so glad to hear you listened to your intuition and found a doctor who treated you well. It's going to be exciting to see your New England exploration since my boyfriend and I are moving to New Hampshire later this year! The bloopers were hilarious and the little messages at the end were so sweet 💚
Hey! Your videos always give me comfort on another level! Love you ♡
I loved this update! And Desi, I'm so sorry about your health problems! I also have Lyme disease to some extent, and several other members of my family also have it, worse than me. It's such a struggle. I don't have bad mold problems myself, but some of my family have horrible problems with it. So I wanted to let you know I get it, and I know how hard it is. I'm praying for you!! Thank you for everything you've given us through your channel! ❤️
Thank you Desi
Omg a cozy chat from you was exactly what I needed! ❤ So glad to see someone else who appreciates the quiet of Rhode Island
Thank you for making such stunning videos. No matter how long they take to make I will be here to watch and rewatch them all! They are so calming and bring happiness to my day ❤
Loved the cozy update! Take care y'all 💖💖
Love you Desi! You're such an inspiration!
I am so glad that you are on the mend and healing well 💕
I have M.E, and it took over 5 years to diagnose.
I haven't clicked with any place yet to find my forever home, and I look forward to seeing where you end up?
Just enjoy the journey.
Some ideas for your merch names ✨️
The Cosy Collection,
The Creative Cosy Collection,
Affection and Cuddles Collection or
The Cosy Cuddles?
Take care 🙂
I’m simultaneously so happy for you and just a little bit jealous 🫣 Happy for you that you’re out there living your best life and putting your mental health first, but also jealous because I want to be out there too 😭 Seriously though, all your videos make me feel warm and cozy, even these occasional Q&A sessions. You’re a gift to this app and I hope you have a wonderful spring 💗

Such a lovely video and loving to see you back x
You are just a walking ray of sunshine, nothing but happy feelings happen when I watch your videos!❤️
Ahh! How exciting!! As a Connecticut native, a lot of people move out / say it's boring here, but there are so many little gems here of course. Small town vibes, rural areas, city areas -- anything you could want. Plus all the Gilmore Girl vibes of course and you're close to the city if ever a need to be in NYC.

Watching your videos makes my soul happy. Thank you!
It's so good to see and hear from you.. it's been quite some time.. goodluck for your time ahead.. xoxo ❤️💐
Oh Desi, every - single - one of your videos inspires me SO MUCH. Be it to romanticize my life, or to imagine another place to live for me and my family or to create meaningful videos myself, everything you say and put out into the world just makes my day! so thank you for continuing despite your health struggles and everything going on in your life. I'm wishing you all the very best and am looking forward to your next video already ❤ sending love all the way from Germany!
Great video Desi! We're rooting for you, too!!!!
I also can't wait for all the spring reading! I also want to read lots of books that you presented in your recommendation videos and this year will hopefully finally the year where I'm gonna read the Anne of Green Gables series for the first time! I just finished watching the Netflix show and I'm literally obsessed 😍🥰❤️
I hope you can start seeing results with your health, that must be hard!! It’s gonna be so beautiful to see where you move to!💜
It has been a long process but I’m starting to see little bits of improvement which is all I really need 🥹💗

@@DarlingDesiI'm so glad to hear that. ❤ God bless. John 3:16 KJV "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life."
All of your videos bring me the most joy❤
Take all the time you need. You’re worth the wait!
I’m so glad you are loving rural New England life! Can’t wait to see what you guys do next!
I wanted to let you know that New England is really good for seasonal fruit picking, I highly recommend going berry picking in the spring, peach picking in the summer, and apple picking in the fall, it’s one of my favorite things about living in this general area!!
Oh my goodness, how funny! I have an all black cat and a rag doll as well. They were both kittens that I was able to get together so it really helped them in their growth and not have aggressive kittens syndrome. But how beautiful! Your third little cat is just adorable. All three of them. Thanks for keeping us updated with your life and sharing your journey with us. Praying blessings upon your new path
Thank you for making such lovely videos Desi :) Makes me so joyful to get to enjoy them.
Thank you for your beautiful videos Desi! I look forward to each and every one!!❤❤❤
I loved watching this video. It felt so cozy and comfy, like talking to a friend. If you’re ever not doing so good, just know that if you find yourself preferring to produce a chill video like this I would loooove to watch them all. Greetings from germany!
12:22 you should REALLY do tote bags!
I never even thought of that but I love the idea 😍
I hope you’re loving your new home! 🤍
Happy to hear you were able to take control of your health! So happy to see your update video and your spring reading! You are so inspiring!! I can’t wait to see your new adventures with the cats 😭😭 they are so precious.
I am very happy for you for living at this new place, I have never loved living in a big city, and I can imagine your joy looking outside the window. I totally understand how important it is where you live and your "puzzle piece" theory. I live in a small town in southern germany, I moved here over five years ago, and I can never imagine leaving again. It is my ex-husband's home town, and we got divorced last year, but this place is just where my heart is. I hope you find your place soon, and I am very excited to discover New England with you. 🥰
Hello Desi🥰
I wish you a lot of luck and strength for your health. You can do it and we are all thinking of you!
I think the sweatshirts are super cute! In summer I would love wear the tshirts you designed :)
Greetings from Northern Germany!😸
ps: take your time for your health, we wait and just look forward to videos from time to time. Don't worry, health is the most important thing!💐
You're a joy to watch, Desi. 🫖🍪
You live in the same state as me 😊 I’m a Rhode Islander at heart through and through no matter where I go. I came back to RI after living in MA for 8 years.
Thank you for sharing Desi 🧡 The irony is that your “inconsistent” videos have such consistent depth & spirit that they feel like your true heart comes through the screen. Your magical imagination has not only expanded your technical skills, but also deepened the quality of connection & love you share 💓 So thank you for keeping tethered to your fae magick that needs her own unique gentle rhythms & flow in such an overexposed & overstimulated culture. Sending woodland healing your way as you uplift your inner health in 2023 🥰🦦 We are always here & lucky to enjoy your apothecary of recommendations, creations & beauty-full life moments! 🍃
PS: Maybe instead of “merchandise”.. maybe something like Magic Makes, Desi Designs, Creations, Offerings or a pun from your fave book heroines/locations/objects 😋 Just some ideas to trigger yours! 🙃
I'm so happy you like New England, I really feel like it's the perfect place for you :)
Beautiful cat babies ❤️ Speedy healing. Blessings❤️
We love you!
Hey ! I want so badly the "I smell snow " sweat shirt you have no idea even though that kinda of blue make me feel like summer since your video on your cottage by the sea vacation.... I hope it would have a large range of size because I'am a plus size and I love wearing oversized clothes ! Be brave, stay as you are. Love from France !
So strange, I have posted a comment and now I can not see it. Anyway, just wanted to suggest a "signature collection" which would make more sense than soulless "merch"! Enjoy your new home! You are inspiration on my own YT path!
Loved the chatty sit down. ❤
Aw Desi your videos are literally just so comforting - thank you so much 🥹💕
Yay!!!
Haha hi mom 😄💗
