    I never comment on videos. But I'd really like to thank you for your videos lately. They've been a major source of peace for me, and as I've watched you for 7 years it's been a real sense of familiarity too. Thank you Klaire. Best wishes for you and your family during all of this

    Wonderful job! I started a garden when this began and my oh my has it been a struggle. My beans are being eaten by bugs to the death.
    Remember that vid you did about doing a project that takes 15 mins a day for a week thing? One of the projects I did was take apart a pallet and make a raised bed out of it. I haven’t built anything since woodworking in high school.
    It was freeing and frustrating and forgiving all in one.
    Thank you miss K. For being so motivating and just sharing your journey in this crazy life we are living.

    I love this. I'm so proud of you guys! I wish we had our own place to do this, but that is several years away. I do want to give a bit of random advice: if you would like a bigger baby jail for when youre working outside, PVC pipe is fantastic for that! There's lots of how to's on Pinterest and when your son grows out of it, you can use the pieces for the skeleton of a fort! We did it a couple of years ago and our kiddos love it. I wish your garden well!

    An idea for the raised beds. If you plan on putting them very tall I would suggest feeling the base with scrap wood like logs and branches so you don't need as much mud. And it will break down over time

    just a random question... how do you afford to live in the house that you are. like you used to do youtube as a part time career but now that you dont.. what work do you do?

    • @KlairedeLysOfficial
      @KlairedeLysOfficial  4 года назад +7

      I've been saving for a house since I was 16, so that helped, but really the only way we were able to afford it was because the house was very old, had a lot of problems and the area has a lot of problems/drug issues. Not many people want to live where we do.The boiler broke a month after moving in and the central heating two weeks after. We had no hot water for a year because of this. The roof has a leak (I say a leak, it was a bloody crack you could stick your arm through that went from one side of the gable end to the other) and needs to eventually be replaced. We don't have a car either and walk everywhere (which I'm glad for because that thing was a money pit). Not easy, but it's what we had to do to. So the short answer is luck, working towards it for a LONG time and living very frugally to be able to not be renting.
