Tina, check out thermography imaging before you get a mammogram. We are the same age and I just had both done recently (and an ultrasound). Thermography is radiation free and gave me more info than the mammogram did (dense breast tissue can obscure small masses). Looks like Anchorage has a place called Advanced Thermal Imaging. Praying for good results! We homeschool too and I’ve enjoyed your videos so much. God bless!! Sarah 💜

[@nicolemartin8737]

There is a place in Wasilla too.

[@stevesweet55]

I agree, radiating a breast as "preventative" medicine is not the way to go. There are plenty of cancer books I own that warn against mammograms.

[@50sparkles]

I would also recommend thermography! Research, it's much better!

[@susiestokely3528]

That Joe, he has ALL the skills needed to live in the Alaska wilderness, then you add Tina’s home making and teaching skills and you have a wonderful life! Merry Christmas Watson family🎄🌲🎄🌲🎄🌲🎄🌲

[@HomeFreeAlaska]

Wow, thank you!♥️

[@suseyq4559]

Great upgrades! You might be able to turn the grate the other way and use it when you rinse off fruits and veggies. I have a similar one that I use for that purpose. Also, perhaps Joe can make you cutting boards that fit on top of the sink. That will give you soo much extra counter space, even if just on one side. Then, dishes in soap side until you clean them.

[@patriciaduong4052]

Hey love your show. Thank y'all for sharing your lives with us. Also I tried the salmon you cooked your first week in Alaska and it was wonderful!!!

[@marianbrown4173]

Hi Tina, don’t worry about the mammogram, it is uncomfortable, but hey you have had a baby. It only last a couple of minutes. Love the cabin you have it so cosy.

[@antonrehling1966]

Snow removal is just like an Alaska gym. The activity to keep it clear will keep Joe in shape.😎

[@HomeFreeAlaska]

You got that right!

[@christopherkoehler3118]

The side by side Polaris was a great addition for snow plowing. But I think for Christmas Joe deserve a nice tractor to plow with. And you have to think you can also use it for projects. Oh don’t forget to add the backhoe attachment. Your welcome Joe! Lol!

Oh, and I cannot tell you how many couples have said that when they just broke down and really relaxed, maybe had a glass or two of wine, but mostly were not all stressed out, finally conceived. The stress really messes with conceiving, so I have heard. As for a mamo, the higher your pain threshold, the easier it is. The pain does not last long, just while squishing. Since mostly women conduct the test and have had a mamo themselves, they are usually quick about releasing the pressure asap. Do not stress and worry over it. You will do fine. ❤

[@goodtimes8005]

Parker is so sweet and he rocked those fractions-smart boy!!!!

[@ciaraclarke1488]

If kids had more teachers like yourself math would be so easy happy teaching

[@ellenyoerger8052]

I am 78 and just about when I turned 40 mammograms began being required. At first every 2 years, after 50, every year. Yes, they are uncomfortable, but they don't take very long. Put on your big girl pants and get it done. It will show any issues right away. And that is a blessing.

[@renamaemcdonald2075]

I love watching you three (and the dogs) enjoy your new home & make improvements. Joe has done an excellent job of them. Parker is so smart! Great to hear the Bible reading!♥️

I always say i have mad Tetris skills when it comes to filling my freezer & fridge & stacking dishes. Lol! I'm the same way about curtains. I live in the country but when it's dark outside I don't want nothing to be able to see in, rather it be a squirrel or big foot. I hand wash my dishes too & a double sink is a game changer.

Digging all the upgrades to the kitchen and dining area. Chef kiss on the chandelier Tina! and Joe... installing all the new additions is such a language of love to your wife. Parker, keep up the awesome work in school!!! Till next time Watson fam!

[@suseyq4559]

Your home is beautiful. Know that a mammogram is like a 10 second shot. While it might be uncomfortable to have a mammogram it isn’t painful. They do turn the squeeze knob one more twist than you think is needed….it’s at that point you start deep breathing and count to 10…That image is over, do the next. If you go with the flow, they can take all views/both sides in less than 5 minutes. Get dressed, go home, done for a year. You can do it. You know what real prolonged pain is and this isn’t that. P.S. I’m an RN and have dealt with other’s pain my whole career. (L&D for 20 years)

[@margaretlarriva4573]

Your husband is really precious gift from God you are truly blessed! My husband also takes care of many things for us I am truly grateful and thankful! God loves us!

[@maryannwalser1023]

Any man who would stand on two stacked buckets to hang a light is the bomb. You go Joe! Parker is so sweet and SMART !! You guys have got it going on. Merry Christmas and blessings to all.

[@HomeFreeAlaska]

[@doughershberger4285]

Joe & Tina, there’s a saying for standing on two 5 gallon buckets on your kitchen table, “hold my beer” !!!!! Lol With that much snow ya might have to invest in tracs for the ranger. Keep the awesome videos coming!👍🏻

[@okier7368]

Yes! My mom used to make us homemade hot cocoa and toast for breakfast with scrambled eggs and fresh fruit. It was a treat as we didn’t get it often but it was so yummy. One of my formers coworkers used to eat sausage biscuits with grape jam. I tried it once and it’s really yummy too for a change.

[@soldier-Dave]

Hi Tina and family. A great video as usual! Loads of projects to do and get stuck into. Glad to hear your neck problem may not be as bad as you thought…but take it steady! My wife is 55 yrs old and has been having her mammograms since she was 40. She had one last week. She is always a little fearful as you can expect and has described the experience as..at the time uncomfortable and after with a feeling of slight internal bruising. She says it’s not actually “painful”.so take it as it comes, any discomfort remember is not for ever just for a little time! You’re doing a great job at schooling…I learnt a lot!😀enjoy the sun …I would just have to stand there and soak it up! You’re all living my dream!! Thank you for your videos. May your god love and protect you all . Dave🇬🇧🇬🇧

Thanks Dave! 😊

Are you tired of the snow yet Joe? I still hear you like it Tina. You said it Tina - it's a good thing you have the Polaris!!! WOW - that SUN IS bright when it's out and you can see it!!! Thanks for the positive report on your neck Tina!!! You will also be okay having a mammogram. Do you feel like you are relaxing at all yet? I hope you can begin to - all of you! Boy Joe you are a master of so many things!!! Not sure there isn't anything you can't handle! The chandelier looks really nice! So do the shades! Great job with your fractions today and writing to some kids that have written you letters! They will LOVE getting your letter!!! And - I also LOVE your new sink! Great job with the install Joe!

You should try a thermogram first. They detect anything at least 10 years before a mammogram will. Reserve a mammogram for if something shows on the thermography.

[@cherylmatthews2420]

When I was homeschooling I figured out how many hours that the traditional school would do if you took out the 8 minutes between classes to change rooms, the lunches, and recess. And it would be only 3-4 hours of school. So don’t sweat only doing 3 hours of school. If that’s what it takes. And I am like you, I wanted my windows covered cause no telling the yahoo could be out there looking in. Cover the windows. Anymore the mammograms aren’t that bad suck it up girl just do it. Lol I’m 62 now and still doing them. I’m so proud of you guys. I miss Alaska so much. Cheryl

[@jeniduncan6456]

Mamogram is more direct pressure, than pain really. I have very sensitive breasts and found it ackward, unaturally intense pressure. Don't worry!! Think of happy family moments and it will be all over! No worse than having someone stand on your foot for a full minute or so.

I live in Maine and tomorrow we are supposed to get our first nor'easter of up to a foot of snow and very high winds - my kind of storm (as long as I am not the one to have to shovel it).

Stay in the Bible God will lead you and take care of you. The public Schools are nothing but a disaster pushing ungodly things on these children and filling their little minds with corrupt things of this world.

I’m in my mid sixties, I have had numerous mammograms. I started getting them early in my 30s because my grandmother passed away from breast cancer. I have never had even a “hint” of pain from any of them. The one thing I will say is sometimes it’s a little uncomfortable, but it’s more of the way they make you stand up against the machine than anything. I know everyone has a different pain tolerance level. So I can’t say it won’t hurt for you, but 30 seconds of pain is worth the peace of mind knowing your doing all you can to detect what could become a serious health issue. Love your videos.

So glad to see you guys are enjoying yourself.. I got so excited whenever you said they were going to check their traps to see if they got anything and we never seen any results from that. I just assumed that they didn't catch anything but keep on trying that's the only way it's going to happen. Oh and by the way Joe chocolate milk and toast is the bomb I also like hot cocoa and toast coffee and toast and also tea and toast but I'm glad to see you guys are having a wonderful time keep it up and let it snow. May God bless you and your family to the highest love you all your friend Dan from PA

Mammograms are not painful a little uncomfortable but over very quickly. Greetings from Australia.

Love ❤️ the video and the new UP grades anything to make the family 👪 a home and comfortable. The one post of the 200sq foot house 🏠 just mean you can move around more to put more stuff and the more STUFF means more cleaning and moving around it , not my cup of coffee , when I have other things to do my wife at times fight migraines do she doesn't clean alot but when she does fill good she'll get things done plus canning or making bread. Good thing you have a BIG lot so Joe can push the snow ❄️ far far away cause it will slowly 🐌 move in and get smaller around . Love ❤️ your dogs 🐕 how they are helpful with Joe fixing things. Have a blessed week and soon a home 🏡 welcoming Christmas 🎄 present 🎁 is on the way .

Thank you for sharing! It’s always a joy to watch your videos. Alaska truly is God’s land! Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! I’ve had a couple mammograms, being over 50. It’s not the most comfortable thing in the world, but it doesn’t hurt. As I say this, I think it all depends on which techs do it and how “gentle” they are. So when you go tell them to be careful lol! I hope it’s tolerable for you when you go. Might I add that it’s beautiful that you are involving the Bible in P’s daily schooling. I went to a private school when I was a child and we had daily bible study class. You take God out of the equation and it’s a mess! We also prayed before each and every meal, even at school before lunch. God is great and beautiful! I wish public schools still allowed praying in school!

You may know this but I’m told light alarms work really well as it mimics the light from a sunrise. Nordic people swear by routine but I’ve noticed they don’t wake up early in the winter. LOL! So maybe in the winter give yourself some grace and maybe start a little later. New subscriber but love your channel!

I've had many mammograms ,don't fret only one was uncomfortable. That was with old equipment, new is like a closing of your hand, slight pressure. My step mom said hers hurt she had no chest, so the pressure was greater. But it's a quick 10 minutes.Love the new sink,great job Joe !

Looks like a nice comfortable home. And it is all solar powered which is impressive with the sun being so low for most of the day.

[@HomeFreeAlaska]

Yep! And we do have to use the generator sometimes to charge the batteries on days that are gloomy. But all in all, we’re really happy with the solar system!😊

[@lorrih0828]

I have the exact same dish rack that you do. mine goes in my bathroom because i am a disabled veteran and only have the bathroom and my bedroom. i'm on the second floor and my daughter and son-in-law bring me my dinner. They are so sweet and helpful.

The curtain looks nice over the washer/dryer, but looking forward to seeing the new one. Great job, Parker! I hated fractions!! Joe is so innovative! That's a different way to make toast!! Love the sink and blinds. It truly is the little things!!

[@HomeFreeAlaska]

I hated fractions too! Actually math was my worst subject LOL! 🤣

[@annaking9213]

Mammograms are uncomfortable but only last a few minutes. It could save your life. Cancer has no age on when it hits. I have lost three friends to cancer. It showing that your loving your family by taking care of yourself. Love you vlogs, been waiting on a new one.

[@lynnalohaaloha9439]

I so agree with you on the double sink. I can't stand my single sink. Drives me crazy. Great Job Parker!!! Love the blinds.
