Getting caught up on some chores today!

[@helanalurie9962]

I am so glad you have such a nice neighbor and access to her internet. Totally understand that work and responsibilities must sone first. Kody is living his best life with you!!! Don't mind the sauerkrauts! ❤❤❤❤

[@italian_grl]

Yes, she is really nice!!! We took a walk out here this morning with Kody, and it's nice having someone to walk with.

[@AbbyD_TN]

Dogs live in the moment. He's attached to you, and you love each other, and you do your best. And dogs are very adaptable.

[@janetcatalano8391]

I can't imagine Kody without you. Kody is so sweet and happy.

[@deebee153]

Kody looks adorable laying on his blankie and pillow.🥰

[@rebameyer4328]

You and Kody are good together. I see the Love. ❤️. Prayers on working. I started doing spark on the side. The other day I went out two different times, did not get one job. Came to find out the Spark app was down. Since then they have resolved the issues. Thanks for sharing life with us. Understand life is a roller coaster.

[@kalinamay]

You did the right thing to keep Cody with you, will say a prayer for you both.

[@joanpotanko6351]

You are so good to Kody. He would miss you if he didn’t have you. Good Luck and hope you are able to find a job soon.

[@AbbyD_TN]

I don't blame you - I'd want "my" home, too, especially if you put your stamp of design into it. Hope you get to see the property soon. Stay strong!

[@user-mc4qw8zu6t]

Hi Melissa and Kody. You’re a a good pet mom ❤

[@italian_grl]

Hi! Thank you so much for that. I love Kody so much, and i try to give him a good life. I know he's overweight, i try. It's so hot and muggy now, we can't even go outside much. The ticks are horrible. Bugs in general are horrible. It's hard to go outside much at all. Smh. But i do my best.

[@kimberlypeterson4883]

Your channel is still fun Melissa no matter what! Your a "real" person like the rest of us working class citizens who want to have a better life. I enjoy that you let us into your everyday adventures with Kody & your mom,sister & we support you with love, inspiration & goodies. Blessings are abundent for you, & will continue. Keep being who you are, a wonderful, loving, caring person, things are looking up for you my friend, slowly but surely & you are so deserving of it. Much love & blessings to you today & everyday.🙏🙏🥰🥰😊😊💐💐💕💕

[@italian_grl]

Awww that was so sweet, thank you for your kind words of encouragement. It means so much to me knowing that complete strangers here, care about me and Kody, and my life. U have a great day!! 🥰🤗

[@debdekarski809]

Wow some people are so rude! It is so very clear you and Kody are doing very well! I mean look at him, he is soooo NOT spoiled and well cared for 😂😂 I will be praying for you for the housing situation! It will all work out the way it’s supposed too!

[@italian_grl]

Lol thank you!!! Kody is my bestie, and i know he loves me!

[@tinac945]

Hey Melissa! Hang in there. I'm sure things will turn around for you soon.👍🏼 Life is hard. What about getting on PT at the closest Walmart? Maybe Kody wouldn't have to be at home alone too long the days you work. I dont know how far that is tho. You have alot of people praying for you. Keep your chin up! You got this. 💞

[@GailFeltman]

That’s a terrible thing to say about Kody and you! You have to keep him … you’re his Momma! It would absolutely break his heart ❤️! He’s a large dog and as they get older they so sleep a lot! That remark was absolutely horrible! If you don’t have anything GOOD to say … don’t say it … keep your trap shut! Sorry .. you and Kody are my friends and don’t appreciate that remark someone made! At this moment you have the world on your shoulders … Prayers are needed! Love you guys! 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@Rwealone]

Don’t defend yourself against stupid comments. Some people don’t understand the connection between people and their pets.

[@angelaabsher8406]

That was a terrible thing for someone to say. Kody is your one constant that you can count with all the uncertainties in your life it’s wonderful to be able to count on his love it is unconditional and that’s a beautiful blessing. No one has a perfect life style and your baby Kody wants one thing the most above all else and that’s to be with you he would most definitely be sad if he lost you. I pray and send good vibes your way every day for you a new job and a place for your tiny house so you can get it back and be happier. Life is hard it’s tough and we all should be kinder to people we have enough going on in our lives with out someone trying to make you feel guilty you have nothing to feel guilty about your doing your best and that is good enough. I wish you nothing but the best for you and Kody 🙏😊💕

[@italian_grl]

Thank you so much for your kind words. 🥰💞

[@GailFeltman]

Hey Melissa & Kody! So happy to see your vlog! 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@Wintersnow147]

I hope everything works out for you. Keep on pushing & things will turn out for you.

[@joannemeadows4971]

Thanks!

[@92Tulips]

Good to see you, wishing you all the luck 😊

[@italian_grl]

Thank you!! 😊

[@Sarahdrybones]

That person who said that about your dog is a mean spirited person.

[@WinonaRuttman]

Unbelievable that anyone would say such an awful comment. Kody is a Sweet boy, and he’s very Happy to have you as his Mom.

[@italian_grl]

Thank you. I find what some say here, pretty rude. I can't imagine going on someone's KZbin and leaving such rude comments. They must be very unhappy!!

[@DSJ72]

Those pillows are used when you fly!!

[@dorisharrison9885]

Be encouraged,have a bless day😮❣️🌻🇺🇸

[@jillgebauer1292]

Sorry, I've gotten behind due to personal nightmares of my own and my move to the SE.

[@aprilfriend3787]

Hey Mellissa, that rhinestones and wrinkles had another video about that Bean station Cherokee creek tiny house place. They have 15 lots left. You should really check it out. It looks like a really nice place and has some nice things. It could be a place for Both you and your Sister. Also, she said in another video that that Lola will have more lots where you are. Just letting you know. Do check that video out to see the place.

[@Kris-tu7rl]

It's really hurtful that someone made that unkind comment about Kody. It really wasn't even their place to say anything about it because they don't know your situation. You & Kody love each other and you belong together just the way it is. It would be so terribly sad and very confusing to him to be given away. To me that would be unthinkable. Anyone can see the special bond the two of you have. It has to be hard to have people saying negative things but I guess you have to just learn to let it go, although I'm sure that's easier said than done. Try to ignore those kinds of things and remember there are a lot of people who care about you and are rooting for you! 😊💖🐕🌹

[@italian_grl]

Awww, thank you so much for your kind words, they mean a lot!!! And yes, i agree, you have to try and ignore crap some people say on social media. Some people are just thrive on trying to start trouble on here.

[@pcthayer]

I understand you not going to see the land due to working and needing to pay bills, but if it is a great deal, you should "strike when the iron is hot" since it may not be available when your schedule permits you go down there. (Perhaps your mom and your sister could go see it incase it is the perfect situation and they can take pictures or do a video for you?)

[@italian_grl]

It will be my sister and mom who get the land anyways. I think my sister, if she is able to, will get it no matter what! It really has nothing to do with me, I'll just be paying lot rent like i would any place. My sister has been dealing with the guy the whole time, it's her thing since it's where she lives. I just want to see what it looks like! She loves it. I know it'll take a while if she does get it, cause i guess of septic.

[@pcthayer]

@@italian_grl That's great. I was afraid if it was something amazing, I would hate to have it slip thru your fingers and have someone else buy it. (Like so many things I missed out on due to procrastination.) Sounds like you folks are on the ball so sorry for my comment.

[@pjp1409]

You are doing a great job with Cody. Believe it or not Great Danes are also a good apartment dog. They are such couch potatoes. A nice walk once a day and they are good to go. Good luck on your job hunt. No apologies necessary life is life we have to pay our bills. I know you will keep us updated when you go to see your sister and the property. Have a good day.

[@lindayaya59]

❤prayers for a great job. One cody can come to, too. 💚😊

[@marciafurlowlogangreen2824]

People can be so mean! They need to stay in their lane. I sure hope you can find somewhere soon to put your home! It is a shame there isn’t something close.

[@sandrap3047]

A friend did Door Dash & Uber Eats in between jobs and made pretty good money. Not sure how it would be in TN. Most of those big KZbinrs have been working for years at their KZbin channel. Poor Kody has had a rough day! He’s been working hard at sniffing everything! Hope the land works out for you, your sister & your Mom! Rude comment by the village idiot! Hope you blocked them! The best thing for Kody is to be with his Mama! ❤

[@angeliamixon8452]

I agree if you can not say anything nice, do not say anything.

[@user-fn4hi6jl1x]

Cody is your baby. No one else has the right to say something like that. We know our fur babies

[@teresarejent9987]

What a hateful comment, I am glad you deleted them, you and Cody belong together, don't listen to those idiots,

[@Sarahdrybones]

What about switching out your home for your mother's? We can do a go fund me to pay it

[@italian_grl]

That's what i was thinking too, if i know I'm going to be here a while, I'd really love to get my house back! It just worked so much better for me and Kody. But, i just want to be sure first where I'm going to be cause i can only move my house once, I'm sure! I really want the land to work out, but if it doesn't, i need to get something figured out, cause like i said, i really miss the other house. ❤️

[@Kim-pc9rl]

Hope the land works out but Any chance of putting your tiny at Lola’s and you sister moving into your moms? That way you guys could be closer and you would have someone close to also help with Cody.

[@italian_grl]

My sister has her job in nc. She loves it, she doesn't want to leave. Can't say i blame her!!

[@MyGirlKenzie]

That is not true about Kody! My lab was the same way. Outside he was happy and active nut inside he just laid around. I know 100 percent Brownie was happy. I think Kody is like Brownie and camera shy! If I had a camera in my hand he would ignore me. I also took Brownie from a house on three acres. Dogs just want to be with their human. When I saw the video of Kody in your mom's car and stretching his neck as far as he could to see you My thought was he loves his mama! Besides when I was on three acres if I was inside and Brownie was out he would just lay at the back door waiting for me. I haven't commented a lot lately but I do give you a thumbs up in every video just trying to help you out.❤

[@MyGirlKenzie]

Also, dogs don't think like humans. Dogs don't dwell on the past. They live in the moment and take what life offers them that day.

[@italian_grl]

Yes, i agree!! I like to think Kody is happy just being with me. I know he loves me so much, as do i love him! Dogs are the best! We've been through so much together. 🩷

[@lauriestull1077]

My. Cousin lester. He has youtube video channel. It's called Longhorn lester. And he's been doing it close to 6 years He was a teacher. And he's retired and he was a bus driver for the school board. Now he has two youtube videos channel. He doesn't work. Does really well. With his youtube video. He's even got some awards for being doing it for so long. He's got. Land from doing it, he bought.I think close to 50 Acres. From doing youtube videos. You should check them out.He does all animals.She's got a lot of animals.

[@DSJ72]

Melissa, can you just swap the houses out?

[@italian_grl]

It would cost a lot to move 2 houses. Smh

[@DSJ72]

@@italian_grl I would check out the cost of a uhaul truck to rent to move houses. It wouldn’t that hard to move your with a uhaul since the houses are so small. I wish I was there…. I would do it for you!! What size are the houses again? I am going to call and see what the cost would be!! Hope you have a good day. I am glad you quit your job. That job would really get old!!

[@lamonicagaming2111]

I would hate to see you move away from your sweet mom. Can you swap out the tiny homes? Let your sister take your mom's tiny house. Maybe your current landlord could open another spot for you. Praying for you and Cody. Hang in there.

[@italian_grl]

My mom and i have checked before. There's no lots out here. I just don't know what to do. I really want my house back. I miss it so much!!! It worked so much better for me and Kody.

[@lauriestull1077]

My sister has a golden retriever. Her name is. Bella. She is 7. She's completely different than coney. She runs and runs and runs and barks.And runs. She cannot be cooped up. I guess different ones by the owner My sister goes to the park four Days a week plus she has a backyard and bella just runs. She would not be doing what cody is doing. She only sleeps late at night.She likes to play until maybe 10 pm I'm over there every day and she just wants to play play and she will be 8 In august. I'm not being mean but I think cody needs to lose a little weight. Is there a way that you can go outside everyday and run cody. They're usually very hyper. Dogs. A lady at my job she has won.I think his name is capone. And he's higher. Good luck trying to find a good home for you too.

[@altheagochenour6821]

Can you sell the house your in and that would pay to move your house?

[@italian_grl]

It's my mom's house, not mine. And, i think my mom wants to keep this house I'm in right now, cause my sister would move it to NC if she gets that land. So she can rent this house and i could get my other house back. Hopefully.

[@italian_grl]

My sister is living in her rv currently and would love to be in the house I'm in now!!

[@AbbyD_TN]

The dog remark - incredibly rude. They judge your life based on a few minutes of video a week? *Hugs*
