I just have to tell you…you are literally the only “get things done” “homemaker” “influencer” whatever you want to call it, person I follow still. You are real, you know what’s important in life, you’re honest with us and yourself, you’re a positive influence, and so many more things! I couldn’t care less about watching other people anymore because I’m sick and tired of fake!! Thank you for being you! It’s what has kept me subscribed for many many years!! Probably over 7 or 8 years!! Your front yard looks beautiful and I love watching your visions come to life!!! Sending so much love from Oregon!!! 🖤🖤🖤🖤

Glad to see someone in the USA hanging washing out to dry. So many Americans seem to use electric dryers all year round despite having good weather many months of the year.

It s more common outside of urban areas. People tend to use the dryers in winter like we do and hang dry from spring to fall. It's easier on clothes, Bill and environment in general.

Your front yard is looking lovely. We have hydrangeas and lots of roses too in Australia but fortunately no deer. I’ve always wondered why you don’t have any fences in the front of your properties. Is it because of the snow? Thank you for your videos. You do motivate me. I am in full declutterring mode as we are redecorating 2 of our bedrooms, one of which is my office. I have to try to unclog my vacuum cleaner this weekend and I am tempted to just go and buy another one but then I thought, ‘What would Sophia do?’ I’m sure she’d try to fix it herself!
@mygreatchallenge6 ай бұрын
There is no ordinance against fences I think it s just a personal style fir the region. There are a few houses , not on my street, who fenced their front. I think people don t want to be the first doing it. I jave no problem being the first if it allows me to keep a great garden.

Your front garden is looking very tidy and well cared for. It will just get better and better now as the beds fill out with the plants you have put in. It is a credit to you and hopefully.with all that mulch, it should be relatively low maintenance, and with all that you do, that has to be a big plus!
