what you say makes sense I enjoy rambling videos I play your videos and you keep me company while I do my housework or canning I understand needing to talk things out loud some things make more sense that way I enjoy hearing about things you are doing just know you are awesome
I have nothing but admiration for you. You work so hard in the kitchen, in the garden, educating your children, your work from home job, and RUclips. Many wouldn't be able to cope. You give us, your RUclips community, a great insight into it all. I don't want you to feel negative about it. You are great at it. You've achieved so much that over 10 000 people agree. So congratulate yourself! We don't need perfection, not the genuine, Nyssa's 'real' vlogs are more than enough. Jan
I love listening to you Nyssa , you're such a natural on the camera and come across as so genuine. That's special. Happy New year to you and your family lovely 🐈⬛🖤
If people don’t like how you talk or rambling they clearly need to go away!! Why would they stay and complain!! I love your rambling please never change for the complainers!! Happy New Year. X
Happy New Year to you and your beautiful family! I have enjoyed every minute of your wonderful rambling videos. Your channel is my go to when I watch You tube. I have learned so much about cooking,gardening,money management ,watching you purchase and make food supplies last. I thank you for sharing so much of life and the up’s and down’s. ❤🐿️
You have worked very hard this year. Real time is perfect, I usually don't watch those that are weeks or months behind real time. Enjoy your ramblings, like visiting a friend. Love and peace.
Your ramble is what most of us enjoy... your ability to pull out the positive in every situation is very inspiring.. thank you for sharing what you do :)
Pausing at 1:49... anyone with negative comments towards this amazing woman, her channel/content- 🤫. No one asked for Negative Nelly's. Happy 2024 y'all ❤
This was my favourite of all your videos. Your vulnerabilities are your strengths. They allow us to be ourselves too. Gently find your way through and what is meant to happen will happen. You are highly creative so will have many fingers in many pies so it’ll be hard to keep it all going but you’ll find that your soul will decide what’s important to do next! Just be you, it’s enough 🙏X
Nyssa, your subscribers' comments are on point. We all love you, your "squirrels" and your videos! I just got back from being on my first ever overseas holiday (to NZ), and I've been playing catchup with your videos since I set foot on Aussie soil again. Travelling is awesome, but Oz is the BEST! Don't ever stop - you're amazing. :D Totally feel the "why did I bother for Christmas" vibes, but this does turn around when kids get older. ;) Keep ploughing on, and if you're willing to share the experiences with your viewers, we'll all be here. Please don't change - being genuine is the most beautiful thing. :)
I love your “rambling”, and I can understand your speed perfectly. Maybe it’s because I’m always told I’m a fast talker too. Loved this recap / reflection.
Happy New Year! Don't be too hard on yourself re the equipment that other homesteaders have. I always look at things like that (we have 08 and 10 cars whereas our neighbours have MUCH newer ones) and wonder how much debt they're in for these pretty new things. Its a process and if it takes a couple of years before you can get these items, it'll be well worth it because you're not killing yourself to pay it back. To quote someone not too far away (other side of the world 😜), "Progress, Not Perfection" is key here 😊💜 Thank you for sharing and brining new ideas to us all! 😊
Happy New Year to you all Nyssa, gonna go right off the bat on this. There are a lot of reasons I love watching your channel, you are very real in what you do and say, viewers get to see all the up and down's, things that go well and also when it's not going so well. You do your chat's/ramble and all, its like where right there with you, could be having a tea or a coffee and a chat. Don't change what you do for anyone and think back on Why? you started your channel, your reasons and purpose, how it would benefit you. We are all just hear for the ride, it's your life, we get the privilege to see what you share with us. You are one of a kind and you don't ask any of us to like and subscribe all 10K of us have chosen to do that. Listening to you chat is like sanity at times in a very crazy mixed up world. Don't look to change you for anyone, stay safe and well and blessed for 2024.🥰
Don’t overwhelm yourself with tasks, been there done that. Carry on with saving for kitchen and forget the rest until that done. One job at the time. You are doing great love your cooking.
We're not on a property but my husband and I live very simply too. I'm generally happy but like you wr occasionally wish for something specific or just a little more to cover something big that's necessary. I love your channel for your honesty and how real you are. Squirrel away, I love listening to you chat about life and your family and your garden. I hope to get some useful things planted this year. At the moment I only have plants that are pretty to me. Some veggies and stuff would be great. I'm looking forward to what 2024 brings for you and publish whenever you wish. Doing this has to make you happy too. I had a good blog for a couple of years when blogging was big and bur out was a real thing. I totally stopped enjoying cooking altogether and found myself lazy in the kitchen for a long time after I let it go. All of us will still be here 😁
Summer has really thrown me! I know it’s bad each year but you block it out lol! There’s so much I ‘want’ to do and I just can’t get myself to do it! I’ll get back in the swing eventually!
Happy new year! Love hearing your plans and learnings. You are amazing with all you achieve. Hope you plan your me time in, you need to enjoy your off grid life. Take care, look after yourself!
Happy New Year! I started watching your videos a few months ago. Since then, I have binge watched so many of your older videos. You are a breath of fresh air on RUclips! Loved this recap of the year! Thank you so much for producing authentic videos and all the very best in 2024. xxx
Hi nyssa. I love listening to you I don’t think you talk to fast or ramble,I always think it’s like calling in on a friend for coffee. You work so hard and have come a long way. Take care love Marilyn x
Great video as always. I love your fluid conversation with us, it feels like we are sitting across from you while you are telling us about your year. You are exactly my kind of friend to talk with.❤
Happiest of New Year to you all. 🎉🎉 Drove through your area last week on a trip to Gundy, saw where all the fires had been, not good at all. I'd like to say, just be YOU my dear, don't change a thing, this is who you are and that's the way it is. Have a lovely day 😘 😎
I’m right with you. I need to vocalize my thoughts/learning to truly process it. I appreciate the time you give us as well as sharing your talents with us.
Good on you!! Don't change for those that don't agree or like the way you are or the way you do things!! Most people watch videos in 2x speed anyway. And most others that are here, enjoy the rambling and squirrel jumps. ❤
Hi Nyssa, I'm Lisa from Washington. You do a great job in your videos. The people who complain can just simply- not watch your video. People can be so rude to other people sometimes. But, you do a great job and I enjoy your videos. Keep on being you and doing things your way.
Squirrel on lady! Love our chats! Happy new year. You're so real, don't change. We tend to cook so similar, so loooove watching all things food. Also, your chat shows how very much you have accomplished. All around your food prep, home schooling, youtubing,homesteading, with financial constraints as well. You are actually inspirational, Nyssa. Xx
it's been a big year. Love listening to you ramble. We've had geese over the years, and we used to find the baby goslings like yours would just go missing. Then one day we saw a crow with one in its mouth!! So, I would imagine something like that would be your problem. Crows, eagles, owls even. Once they get bigger, they are fine. Hate crows!!!! Look forward to your next year of videos.
Take it easy and do what you can , as they say Rome wasn’t built in a day . I have a list of wants and needs and and slowly mark things off when I get them fixed or bought . It’s a slow process but l will get there sooner or later , positive mind , positive life . We are all lucky , we have a roof over our heads and food on the table , so compared to some other country’s we are blessed .
I really don't understand people that complain...it's your choice to watch peeps! I love it...plus I can relate, I'm renowned for rambling! You do you Nyssa! ❤️
Great video! It's so frustrating when people say you need to change what you do because that one negative comment outweights all the positive who enjoy what you do! It's interesting how people feel they have a right to tell others how they should be.
Lovely reflections. Great realisation of yearly undertakings and moving forward needs to get done. Yep, work hard during the cooler months so life is a bit more layback during the heat. However, something unexpected always seems to crop up that changes all good plans. I have finally put shade cloth up on my gal cage I got early 2023 and pulled down an old rotten green house. I get told if only I’d spend the same amount of time fixing up inside as I do outside! lol. Just not so interested in inside. If people think you talk too fast they can slow the speed down. For goodness sake. I find your speed fine. I actually speed up other peoples outputs. Happy New Year to you and your family.
I enjoy your rambles, so refreshing telling about things don’t go well. We don’t all have a smooth sailing life so it is great to know we are not alone. Animals and gardens often bring their own problems it is not easy breezy. We led a very quiet life by choice so enjoy following along with yours.
You shouldn't be disheartened! You have done loads! I do the same thing as you with wanting to achieve so much, usually the time something takes it my downfall! Try the trellis sideways in your beds. Our priority this year is water collection and growing grass. We have 7 geese now and 5 ducks. There is always so much to do when your offgrid! You need to acknowledge that to yourself so you don't get down on yourself! Your abilities are endless. I wish I could do everything you can! BTW what sort of water pump do you have for your garden? I want a faster way to water our garden. I'm currently just using a watering ca n. I can be outside watering for over 2 hours. That is not good time management! Our water pressure is non existent! Once we have that under control, it will free up so much time. We are always planning things that need doing here. It also depends on the weather. Any progress is good progress is what I say now! We will have been offgrid for 1 year at the end of January! It's gone fast, but I do love it, challenges and all! Happy New year to you all!
We have a giantz pump, 380w/0.5hp attached to the stock tank with a pressure thing on it, it works well, low power usage, good flow even through a long long hose! We also have a jet pump which pushes much faster, but uses more power, but when we're filling the irrigation barrels we might use that, straight from the IBC rather than transferring to the stock tank and then hosing out!
Seems to be two extremes hehe, those who love listening and want me to do more chats (maybe I'll do a video podcast at some point, obviously I can talk easily enough without a script as such lol) and those who hate the speed at which I talk and the footage of just me chatting, but that's fine, those that want to watch can and those that don't, don't have to :D
I absolutely loved this video, and the mantra of progress not perfection. I think we all compare ourselves to others and sometimes that is just not the best thing to do. We are all on our own timelines and adventures and that is ok. ❤
I like your videos because you are genuine and real. Some people try to be fake and act perfect for social media and I don’t care for that. You seemed to accomplish plenty in 2023. A lot more than I did. I really did nothing. We live on little income even though we don’t live off grid. I’m hoping that all changes soon. My husband is searching for more work and I hope we can move in 2024. It would be nice if good things would happen. Wishing the best for you and your family this year. 😊
Agree with these other comments! You display presence when you speak. Presently in the moment.... the Now. Always keeping it real... This is what we need more of today. Always inspired, motivated and educated by your videos ❤❤❤
Nyssa what a year 👏👏👏👏 I love your rambling ❤ you should consider becoming an author as your humour and outlook on life is just wonderful 😊😊 So the vicious circle thing think of it as a roundabout with exits of your choosing. Thank you for sharing 2023 with us it's been my pleasure to watch 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Love from the UK x
Delightful! Yes, you have achieved SO much this year. Glad to see you realizing that Qld Summers are for being, not for doing... tee hee🤩... All the very best to you all for this coming year 💜💙💚💫 Glad to hear that you are trying to "pencil in" specific times in your schedule for "video processes", especially for you to truly realize that this stuff is not "you time" but instead "work time" for you to provide us with all of your great personable videos. Well done! Cheers! 🌹🌹🌹
Nyssa, I admire your optimism and strength, wow you made me so tired with the year rundown. I think you are the hardest working person I watch. I pray the coming year is blessed and not quite so stressful with the fires. Happy New Year and thanks for sharing your life. Cindi
I love to listen to you ramble. You are one of my favs because you are so real and true to yourself. You don’t change or try and change bc of other people’s opinions and you keep marching on to the beat of your own drum. People can be so rude and hateful. There is no need for their opinions. Why people think that someone else will change based on what they think they should do or how they think they should be boggles my mind. People need to learn to keep their opinions to themselves and realize the world doesn’t revolve around them or their opinions. Different is good. If we were all the same life would be boring. Shine on and don’t let it get you down or be bothered by them and their narrow minded opinions and self righteousness. Luv your channel and the value you bring to this community. Thank you for taking your time to do videos and edit them in order to share your life and ideas.
"Take a gamble, just ramble ..if you in youtube are listening and dont like it, don't sight it, subscribe or fight with it ..bite it..bite your tongue, csuse you are doing wrong.. you are not strong..just dont come along, and live life to your own song" regards Karolyn
I like your videos…..every one of them. I don’t understand why anyone watches a video that they are going to complain about. Anyway, that is a reflection of the person they are….not you.
I love your rambling i do the same thing memory planning it's very relaxing and constructive you can use pictures and anything else you want a bit like scapbooking
Just be you! You're real and that's what makes you interesting and likeable. Your talents shine through and i'm blessed watching/ learning with each vlog. Thank you!!❤❤❤😊😊
I love watching your videos especially when you "ramble" as I feel that you are engaging in a conversation. As for other homesteads...they all had to start somewhere and they are the first ones to say that things are not easy, it is taking longer to achieve certain goals, etc. You get the point. It takes time. It will happen. I think the one reflection that was so meaningful was that certain times of the year means certain things can be achieved. There are only so many hours so please pace yourself so that you can enjoy the process. Take care and a happy new year to you and your family!
Happy new year to you all x. Love your chats . I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels like it’s just too hard to get things done in this humid heat we have in the summer. You’re doing a great job and have accomplished so much. Thanks for the chat x
Enjoyed your update Nyssa. Happy New year to you and the family. I’m sure you’ll achieve a lot in 2024. But if you don’t, please be kind to yourself! ❤
Oh nyssa ramble away They don’t like it they can pound salt and stop commenting negative crap But i can guarantee the majority like it or else they wouldn’t continue to watch So be you and don’t stop Lots of cheering here from Canada girl love ya
I love your ramble, too me it seems genuine and friendly, happy new year to you and your gang hope this year is healthier happier and filled with positivity. 😊xx
Girlfriend you just ramble a🎉way we love you. As for your roosters i've been telling you all along they love you girl. They haven't been doing much singing lately though and I do miss that. God bless stay well.
You talk too fast? Or people are just too slow to keep up with you? For goodness sake! Isn’t that what captions are for? I’m partially deaf and I use captions - I’d never get half of what RUclipsrs say otherwise! - and it’s no big deal. People are so entitled online…everything has to be to suit THEM, forgetting that content is freely provided and the choice solely of the creator. You keep doing you, luv, because you are so right - you are who you are, it’s served you well enough for all these years, and there is no reason for you to change. Lots of people love your content, and I for one am delighted to see that your channel has grown. My hope is for you to have lots more subscribers and views in 2024 - best of luck with it all.
Hehe, I know I do get a bit of a run on at times, and then remember to pause and breathe lol. But yes, I use captions a lot lol, I don't like to have sound too high so I tend to have captions going as well and yes they require some interpretation sometimes, but that's ok too :D
I have the same.issues with scheduling and deadlines and procrastination. I got a "block planner" type format on my phone and I go through every Saturday and just list in the block time frames things I would like to accomplish. I also have a weekly and monthly goal sheet. It has helped me a lot. I hope 2024 is a great year for you and your family ❤
I tried tomatoes for the first time. I did 4 plants. It will be my last time. It was lovely to hear of your year. It's just to hard when it's hot. to garden
Nothing beats grabbing a fresh tomato off the vine and slicing it up warm and eating it, the flavour is amazing, but they take up a lot of room and sometimes, fail :S.
I don’t do New Year’s resolutions or make plans either…. Life is what happens while you are planning to do things….they never work out for me and I feel like a failure or at a minimum disappointed….So I found for me it’s best to go with the flow….I do what needs to be done whenever something arises and I guess wherever I end up, is where I am meant to be….Happy New Year to you BTW!
Definitely, you have to allow paths to wend their own way, its nice to be mindful about what you are hoping your destination will be! Which is all I try and do, but those goal posts are forever being shifted out of reach lol.
Happy New Year Nyssa :) do not be too hard on yourself when you look back on 2023 you have accomplished many things! Take Care & wishing you and the family a safe New Year.

Ramble away. It’s part of your charm. 😊
Totally agree Stephanie x
Yes!😊
Totally agree! Ramble on sister! ❤
Sing it sista! Ramble away - I watch because I like you and your content don’t change. 😊
what you say makes sense I enjoy rambling videos I play your videos and you keep me company while I do my housework or canning I understand needing to talk things out loud some things make more sense that way I enjoy hearing about things you are doing just know you are awesome

Well said!!!
Loved the video today.. please consider adding an Amazon wish list. If I were rich, you would have a fabulous kitchen. I love all your content
Lady, I for one love the rambling squirrel that you are. Keep on keeping on.
If people don’t like how you talk or rambling they clearly need to go away!! Why would they stay and complain!! I love your rambling please never change for the complainers!! Happy New Year. X
Over 10,000 people LOVE you because you are real!! It's like I'm setting there talking with you. I love it that you say "it's not for you".
Happy New Year to you and your beautiful family! I have enjoyed every minute of your wonderful rambling videos. Your channel is my go to when I watch You tube.

Thanks for the past year of videos. Seeing a post from you pop up, always makes me happy., especially the rambling ones. Aren't iguanas edible.
I really don't understand people that complain...it's your choice to watch peeps!
I love it...plus I can relate, I'm renowned for rambling!

Lol, I always say it is lucky I'm so good in the kitchen, because my housekeeping sucks!
Don’t listen to those rude comments. Your loyal viewers don’t feel that way. We love you ❤
And you guys are the important ones! :D

I want a faster way to water our garden. I'm currently just using a watering ca n. I can be outside watering for over 2 hours. That is not good time management! Our water pressure is non existent! Once we have that under control, it will free up so much time. We are always planning things that need doing here. It also depends on the weather. Any progress is good progress is what I say now! We will have been offgrid for 1 year at the end of January! It's gone fast, but I do love it, challenges and all! Happy New year to you all!
We have a giantz pump, 380w/0.5hp attached to the stock tank with a pressure thing on it, it works well, low power usage, good flow even through a long long hose! We also have a jet pump which pushes much faster, but uses more power, but when we're filling the irrigation barrels we might use that, straight from the IBC rather than transferring to the stock tank and then hosing out!
You still have your spirit and enthusiasm , but maybe work in the cooler months. Enjoyed your chat.
Hope 2024 brings good health,a bounty of garden harvests .and a prosperous journey. You are such a blessing to us all. Thank you Nyssa.
I absolutely luv listening to u .i have learnt so much about cooking and totally enjoy u and your life style .u are an amazing cook and baker
Seems to be two extremes hehe, those who love listening and want me to do more chats (maybe I'll do a video podcast at some point, obviously I can talk easily enough without a script as such lol)
and those who hate the speed at which I talk and the footage of just me chatting, but that's fine, those that want to watch can and those that don't, don't have to :D
Exactly
I absolutely loved this video, and the mantra of progress not perfection. I think we all compare ourselves to others and sometimes that is just not the best thing to do. We are all on our own timelines and adventures and that is ok. ❤
I have learnt so much from you..education is key, a key to freedom..I appreciate thankyou very much..sincerely Karolyn
Never thought that you talk too fast. I love your rambling, adds to my enjoyment.
I like your videos because you are genuine and real. Some people try to be fake and act perfect for social media and I don’t care for that. You seemed to accomplish plenty in 2023. A lot more than I did. I really did nothing. We live on little income even though we don’t live off grid. I’m hoping that all changes soon. My husband is searching for more work and I hope we can move in 2024. It would be nice if good things would happen. Wishing the best for you and your family this year. 😊
I think you’ve done quite a bit for one year! You’re out in the middle of nowhere raising six children. Give yourself some grace, dear lady.😊
Agree with these other comments!
You display presence when you speak. Presently in the moment.... the Now.
Always keeping it real...
This is what we need more of today.
Always inspired, motivated and educated by your videos ❤❤❤
We love your rambling - as far as I'm concerned all your videos are an absolute delight❤
Nyssa what a year 👏👏👏👏 I love your rambling ❤ you should consider becoming an author as your humour and outlook on life is just wonderful 😊😊 So the vicious circle thing think of it as a roundabout with exits of your choosing. Thank you for sharing 2023 with us it's been my pleasure to watch 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Love from the UK x
This is one of my favorite videos you have done. It is fun to look back over
Delightful! Yes, you have achieved SO much this year. Glad to see you realizing that Qld Summers are for being, not for doing... tee hee🤩... All the very best to you all for this coming year 💜💙💚💫 Glad to hear that you are trying to "pencil in" specific times in your schedule for "video processes", especially for you to truly realize that this stuff is not "you time" but instead "work time" for you to provide us with all of your great personable videos. Well done! Cheers! 🌹🌹🌹
Nyssa, I admire your optimism and strength, wow you made me so tired with the year rundown. I think you are the hardest working person I watch. I pray the coming year is blessed and not quite so stressful with the fires. Happy New Year and thanks for sharing your life. Cindi
I love your rambling and general chat so please continue. Happy New Year to you and your lovely family xx
Good to hear your 2023 review and reflections. Yes, Progress, not perfection. Love your rambling. You are so real.
Love your videos
We live off grid 30 acres in Tara family of 5 . We sound just like you things take forever to do and the list we have is a mile long but we love it
It's hard, but its worth it! :D.
I love to listen to you ramble. You are one of my favs because you are so real and true to yourself. You don’t change or try and change bc of other people’s opinions and you keep marching on to the beat of your own drum. People can be so rude and hateful. There is no need for their opinions. Why people think that someone else will change based on what they think they should do or how they think they should be boggles my mind. People need to learn to keep their opinions to themselves and realize the world doesn’t revolve around them or their opinions. Different is good. If we were all the same life would be boring. Shine on and don’t let it get you down or be bothered by them and their narrow minded opinions and self righteousness. Luv your channel and the value you bring to this community. Thank you for taking your time to do videos and edit them in order to share your life and ideas.
Love your rambling chats❤❤
"Take a gamble, just ramble ..if you in youtube are listening and dont like it, don't sight it, subscribe or fight with it ..bite it..bite your tongue, csuse you are doing wrong.. you are not strong..just dont come along, and live life to your own song" regards Karolyn
I love that you talk fast 👍 I don’t listen to any RUclipsrs that drag out a ten minute video to 45 mins😡 Happy New Year 🎉
Busy year and a busy year in the making!!!
I love your rambling 😂 can't wait for your 2024 videos 😍 more shopping hauls yay
Happy Nee Year Nessa and Fam!
I agree with the not doing New Year’s resolutions. My 2024 plan is to be intentional in what I do or don’t do.
I like your videos…..every one of them. I don’t understand why anyone watches a video that they are going to complain about. Anyway, that is a reflection of the person they are….not you.
I love your rambling i do the same thing memory planning it's very relaxing and constructive you can use pictures and anything else you want a bit like scapbooking
Just be you! You're real and that's what makes you interesting and likeable. Your talents shine through and i'm blessed watching/ learning with each vlog. Thank you!!❤❤❤😊😊
I love watching your videos especially when you "ramble" as I feel that you are engaging in a conversation. As for other homesteads...they all had to start somewhere and they are the first ones to say that things are not easy, it is taking longer to achieve certain goals, etc. You get the point. It takes time. It will happen. I think the one reflection that was so meaningful was that certain times of the year means certain things can be achieved. There are only so many hours so please pace yourself so that you can enjoy the process. Take care and a happy new year to you and your family!
Happy 2024 hope it's a great year 🎉
Happy new year to you all x. Love your chats . I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels like it’s just too hard to get things done in this humid heat we have in the summer. You’re doing a great job and have accomplished so much. Thanks for the chat x
Enjoyed your update Nyssa. Happy New year to you and the family. I’m sure you’ll achieve a lot in 2024. But if you don’t, please be kind to yourself! ❤
Oh nyssa ramble away
They don’t like it they can pound salt and stop commenting negative crap
But i can guarantee the majority like it or else they wouldn’t continue to watch
So be you and don’t stop
Lots of cheering here from Canada girl love ya
I love your ramble, too me it seems genuine and friendly, happy new year to you and your gang hope this year is healthier happier and filled with positivity. 😊xx
Happy New Year. Everyone has a list and I don't know anyone who finishes their list. You may be surprised by how much you will accomplish this year
Girlfriend you just ramble a🎉way we love you. As for your roosters i've been telling you all along they love you girl. They haven't been doing much singing lately though and I do miss that. God bless stay well.
You talk too fast? Or people are just too slow to keep up with you? For goodness sake! Isn’t that what captions are for? I’m partially deaf and I use captions - I’d never get half of what RUclipsrs say otherwise! - and it’s no big deal. People are so entitled online…everything has to be to suit THEM, forgetting that content is freely provided and the choice solely of the creator. You keep doing you, luv, because you are so right - you are who you are, it’s served you well enough for all these years, and there is no reason for you to change. Lots of people love your content, and I for one am delighted to see that your channel has grown. My hope is for you to have lots more subscribers and views in 2024 - best of luck with it all.
Hehe, I know I do get a bit of a run on at times, and then remember to pause and breathe lol. But yes, I use captions a lot lol, I don't like to have sound too high so I tend to have captions going as well and yes they require some interpretation sometimes, but that's ok too :D
I have the same.issues with scheduling and deadlines and procrastination. I got a "block planner" type format on my phone and I go through every Saturday and just list in the block time frames things I would like to accomplish. I also have a weekly and monthly goal sheet. It has helped me a lot. I hope 2024 is a great year for you and your family ❤
I tried tomatoes for the first time. I did 4 plants. It will be my last time. It was lovely to hear of your year. It's just to hard when it's hot. to garden
Nothing beats grabbing a fresh tomato off the vine and slicing it up warm and eating it, the flavour is amazing, but they take up a lot of room and sometimes, fail :S.
Your rambling is what makes it so real. Love it. Forget those poo poo ers
Love all your videos. Thank you.❤
Happy New Year Nyssa & family, you are an inspiration ❤️, I love listening to your posts... 😊
You can't please everyone all the time Nissa be you and look at your fan subscription base babe you are rocking it ! ❤️
Very true :)
@@OurSmallFootprint ❤️
Bravo Nyssa on 2023! Hope you have a wonderful and blessed 2024!
I love your videos you are very interesting I never get tired of hearing you 😊
Loads of progress. You guys have done awesome. And your rambling is great, you get a lot more information in. 😊
I don’t do New Year’s resolutions or make plans either…. Life is what happens while you are planning to do things….they never work out for me and I feel like a failure or at a minimum disappointed….So I found for me it’s best to go with the flow….I do what needs to be done whenever something arises and I guess wherever I end up, is where I am meant to be….Happy New Year to you BTW!
Definitely, you have to allow paths to wend their own way, its nice to be mindful about what you are hoping your destination will be! Which is all I try and do, but those goal posts are forever being shifted out of reach lol.
@@OurSmallFootprint Exactly! And it really great when one gets it through the Goalposts! 😉😁
Happy New Year Nyssa :) do not be too hard on yourself when you look back on 2023 you have accomplished many things! Take Care & wishing you and the family a safe New Year.
I love your rambling chats
Brilliant
Im envious of your way of life and admire you and your family❤ happy new year🎉🎉🇬🇧🇬🇧
