Back To Work - Doing It Ourselves

[@jenh9361]

Spot on Michael... LOVE your Beatrice Potter!!! EXCELLENT talent you've got... So happy to have you back in the driver's seat again!!! WELL DONE... Hugs

[@bettyebell2835]

Very impressive, Michael. It is a joy to watch all of you pitch in together and work so well. Lots of laughter and joking around. Very pleasant, indeed. Your paintings are brilliantly done and I am so glad you are back into your art. You seem to be doing well, hope you are. Bertie is such a sweetheart. Take care of each other.😊

[@KiraNicole333]

Bwahahaha "It's called, 'Doing It Ourselves!'" Billy's teasing seriously had me laughing out loud! 🤣🤣🤣 Awww brothers 🥰😆

[@irishgranny23]

Absolutely love daddy Petherwick!! He's some man for one man 😄

[@cynthiabroockman1752]

I never get tired of that music, though forget what it is.. It is Michael.

[@carolynjose5504]

I admire your painting talents and I'm excited to see your upcoming art! You and your family and friends are so talented and hard working. I can't wait to see your cottage completed!

[@cindland]

I’ve been missing you, Michael. Took a pause to catch up with Stephanie’s progress. I love that you brought the theme music back in again. It’s so inspiring! 🥰

[@barbaraoshea8639]

Super levels of respect for Mick Petherick! I salute you Mick!

Michael, you`re so lucky to have a good friend like Florian. He`s a great guy with a great smile!

Florian always looks happy.

[@BDThomas]

Florian is becoming more comfortable/confident on camera and it makes him even more adorable 😍

[@lynnkornegay6596]

Hi Michael- so happy u haven’t given up on the gardeners cottage. So charming. I collect Beatrix Potter- I’ve quite a display in an extra bedroom. The paintings you create are exquisite. Don’t let ADD keep u from living your best life- I understand your challenges. Take the medication and get control of it. Don’t drink a lot or the meds won’t do their work. Whatever you do - don’t resume smoking! Stay strong, and put your energies into your designing, creating, and just being u! You are a great videographer- I ❤️ your vlogs

Yes, Ryan definitely is a ham!

[@MommieDammit]

Ryan is so full of it... he reminds me of my little brother. Good to see you so driven and focused, and seeing such progress. Delightful to see Florian, too. Looking forward to seeing the next accomplishments on the cottage.

The cobblestone looks amazing, great job achieved by the family. What a treat to see all the family together doing bits and pieces.

[@ritaqualter9607]

Michael, you bring such joy to my life. I’ve missed you and your videos tremendously. On a miserable day in North Central Florida, you bring out the sunshine! Keep on keeping on!

[@turawolfe2841]

Good to see all this work inside and outside. I can't wait to see the upstairs finished. Ya'll are really hard workers and it is so fun to see!!!

[@julieann5697]

I like your videos a lot, Michael! Missed you. Your art is fantastic. You are SO talented; piano, cooking, painting, hairdressing (Stephanie) - and all those construction skills your dad must have taught you and Billy.

[@lurveit]

Oh Michael, once the cottage is basically done you definitely have to say thanks to all those that gave you free help to get there. It's good to acknowledge those around you because there's no way you would've accomplished this cottage without the many hands of help around you. I vote for a lunch or dinner that's setup just outside so everyone can fit. Maybe some little drawings of the cottage on thank you cards too?

[@dalewest4967]

Nice to see you motivated again Michael, Florian is such a lovely person to have in your life.

[@debbiecraig9946]

Oh Michael ♥️ So happy to see you again & working on your cottage & artwork! You're so talented & we all enjoy you, Florian, Ryan, Mick, Billy, Sadie & your Mum! You all work so hard & bring joy to everyone! Keep up the great work! You're doing very well & so proud of you! Thank you for being you! 👏👏♥️♥️🙏🙏🤗

SO good to see you up and around and busy! Wonderful to see everyone working and laughing together. This was the first channel after Chateau Diaries I began watching, and you all give me so much joy, I am thrilled to see you back in your groove!

But get on with it Michael.We all sponsored you..!

[@stellaevans752]

Lovely to have you back gorgeous man, you are an amazing artist Micheal, so talented, I love the Petherick family and I include Ryan and Florian in the word family, I love the banter you all have, so funny, so watchable, the cottage is nearly there, it’s looking so good and so cosy, my love to all xxxxxxxxxx😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@vanessaisom8620]

Really enjoyed this episode, you guys all working together, and Mum and Sadie in the background. Good to see you back on the art work Michael, you are very talented in many ways. Looking forward to the next one.

[@zzanatos2001]

Michael, you should do an educational series called "Renaissance Man" that teaches some of your special skills like Spode collecting, wood refinishing, gardening, painting/illustrating, panning for gold, hiking/exploring, learning local history, cooking delicious meals on the Aga, planning/filming/editing/narrating videos, being courteous, friendly, humble, and well-mannered, etc., etc.

[@elisabethhopson5639]

Brilliant vlog Michael. I love Florian, he is such a good friend and always willing to help out. His english is coming on really well too. Ryan too is so good at helping out and raising spirits. You are lucky to have such lovely friends around you. The Gardeners cottage is looking good both inside and out now. A few more weeks and it will be moving in day. The cherry on the cake is the fact you are painting again and able to produce work that will be highly sought after and should raise a fair amount of money. Excellent news. Can't wait for the next vlog.

[@DoingItOurselvesOfficial]

A fantastic comment, I’m really pleased to be back in high spirits after a difficult year. It feels like the old days again. Thank you.

Now that’s what I call team work, well done to all.

[@dianalewis8548]

Welcome back Michael. The whole gang is back. Florian is so adorable. His English is getting better. Glad Ryan is helping too and your Dad is a workhorse. Your artwork is your strong point. You'll have more time for this after all the renovation is done. Happy Friday. Titi loves you. Sweet dog.

[@ehpeachylove]

Michael you are looking really good and happier too. Love that you are back to painting, they are lovely. You are all very entertains but getting the job done. Love all you guys. I just love the cobbled pathways around the cottage, it’s so natural looking like it’s always been there. Great team work on getting the player board upstairs to you all. Just love your dad Mick. Wish we would get some much needed rain here in Northern California. Wishing you nothing but the best Michael. 🤗😘❤️🙏

[@Dorian1970]

I really enjoy the gentle humor with Florián and his banter about the pilot and being more interesting than the scenery. I don’t know what the magic is with Michael and his videos, but his storytelling makes it feel like I’m in France as the 6th (wo)man just about to come off the bench and into whatever is happening. I can feel the essence of the rain and envision what the tools feel like in my hands. I also can relate to the mental struggle to stay in the game and I’m cheering for Michael to continue to pursue his creative talent and interests.

[@stephjezo6470]

Getting all the drywall/plasterboard up is such a huge step for the upstairs. Getting that up on the walls is a huge leap toward completion and moving in! Can't wait to see the website.

[@dougmartin7129]

He still hasn’t started the bathroom. He’s not even close to moving in. Unless he wants to revive the chamber pot.

It was so wonderful to see you, Michael, Florian, Ryan, Billy, and your Dad today. There was a good deal of merriment that happened whilst you were working. I'm particularly glad to see Billy teasing, or trying to tease you, as only brothers can do. Getting the plasterboard up will take you to the next level, [pun intended], in your completion of the Gardener's Cottage. I'm really happy for all of you. I liked your watercolors. Art and music are in you. Make sure you keep them up. You are a talented man, and you have wonderful friends and family surrounding you. This was a great video. Thank you.

[@sharingthebounty2488]

Great job Michael! You've had a couple of very productive, and focused days! You certainly have wonderful friends to be so kind to help, as well as your brother, who clearly loves you very much. Things always go faster if you have someone to help when the job is a large one. I can't wait to see you finish the top floor and start decorating and using it. A good rule of thumb when you have a lot of different project options, is to finish one before you start another, however, there are also times when something needs to "set" or dry at which time you can work on another project during those times. I'm also extremely pleased that you are painting again. Starting and actually finishing projects, with a sense of purpose is always a good thing. Your paintings are superb, (and I am an artist among other things. I've worn many hats in my life, so far). Your work is impressive, and I was actually going to suggest that in the new property, if possible, you could actually open up a small gallery with your work, as well as other local work in the area. (You wouldn't have to worry about shipping, or you could do both, online and local gallery if you wanted.) I think too if you go to some of the antique venues in other areas and little towns, you could find some really unique and nice/good pieces, clean them up, do restoration if needed, and sell those in your gallery as well. (Just a couple of things that are possible with your kind of talent and potential that could be available for you. Anxious to see what you do next. Onward....and forward!!!

But I must say how lucky you are to live where it IS a fairytale. Your cottage with the cobble stone walkway, the horses and greenhouse with the chateau high above it all, is simply magical. I’m happy to see you painting again, because your talent shouldn’t go to waste. I watched all four vlogs with the same content of everyone coming together to help. They all were different, fun and good. I loved however your vlog showing you advancing with the renovation upstairs, the smiles, and laughter. It’s going to be a beautiful space.
