Every day is one step closer.💕💕you’ve got this!!!! I love my Sunday morning Biatta Videos. Thank you 💜

[@NaomiRuthHouldsworth]

Hi Biata! The house looks so pretty with the snow on it! Glad your friend managed to help you sort out the furnace, must be such a relief to have it working. Good luck with the next inspection! Take care, Naomi x

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Thanks so much Naomi! Thankful for great friends

[@jamesthielen4050]

Glad you got heat back in the trailer. You are making great strides in the house. Won't be belong and the heat will be in the house. Keep warm and dry.

[@jayhostettler1260]

Snowing like mad!! 😂im thinking you guys are probably glad you have that truck now! With all that snow can't wait to see the wetlands in the spring 🌱! Looking good inside your house keep plugging away and soon you'll be out of the camper!!

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Sooo happy to have the truck haha! We've had more snow this year than last year combined lol. I can't wait to get out of the camper haha

[@sylvainbriere2942]

Almost Sheetrock time… You have such a great attitude when dealing with situations. You are soooooo good at problem solving. You rock madame…

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Awh thank you! I’m trying haha

[@chalklinecrossfit8999]

You’re doing an amazing job Biata, continually so impressed with your determination and willingness to dig in and figure things out!

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Thanks so much for this! Constantly learning

[@kevinjohnson4418]

Glad to see the hardest part be done by you hanging sheet and mudding

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

We shall see on mudding haha!

[@derekread8220]

No matter what problem you come up against you always manage to get it sorted, and always with that beautiful smile. Just love it.

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Awh thank you! 😊

[@LarryWatters-w3r]

It was great seeing you again you did a lovely video. Thank you.

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@rogerperson7159]

You are doing a very good job, looking good.

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Thanks so much!

[@timrees2670]

Everything always takes longer than you think. But as you are doing the important stuff. Brilliant video.

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Thanks so much! It sure does take longer haha

[@safaripantura8758]

Very nice 👍

B. Those vent baffles are what I was referring to when I suggested that you use them instead of cutting up cardboard to make your own.

[@rossbrown1748]

It’s so pretty outside I wouldn’t wanna be working inside. I’d wanna be playing outside.

[@JamesMcnichol-ss2oc]

Glad you managed to get the heat going. I think your advice on having those extra parts for furnace is great idea. It always gives trouble when you can’t get parts. Having your own means you can fix it anytime. Also something I noticed in video your propane tanks are covered in snow. Always try to keep them uncovered as much as possible. I’ve had tanks freeze up in winter when covered in snow. That’s what my propane supplier told me to do to prevent this from happening

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Exactly! And thank you! I just got the tank filled but I was brushing it off daily before then! I shovel a path for them too haha :)

[@nicklynch6350]

Good afternoon love from nick in Leeds west Yorkshire thank you for your videos. Xx

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Thank you Nick!

[@jamesmatheson5115]

Should be a great time with the heated floors to work inside the house and start putting up sheetrock.

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Oh I'm soooo excited!

[@Vinny-i8o]

Good job looks great my friend 😊

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@ruthbrown2186]

Keep your chin up you are amazing

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Thanks so much!

[@RB-xg2vz]

Well done. The itzy bitzy tasks are really annoying but you’re gradually getting there. ❤

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Yes it’s so true! They get pushed back and take forever

[@keithkoehler22]

don't worry about the snow. Your roof is designed to carry the weight

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Fair, I think everyone we know shovelled some snow off their roof this week, we had 4-5 feet that compacted 😵‍💫

[@flybywire5866]

When the drywalls go up, the look will change from a construction site to a house you can move into.

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Oh I’m sooo excited!

[@reneseverin8658]

Super en français j adore 😅😅😅

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Thank you!

[@chantellej9282]

Oh my goodness. I cannot wait until Christmas to see what you’ve made. 😂

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Bahahsha

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

You maybe have already seen some

[@chantellej9282]

@@SimpleLivingwithBiata eek!

[@stewartblacklaws6422]

Wonderful video Biata. You’re such a trooper. Already looking forward to next weeks video. Can’t imagine living with your weather. The UK hasn’t been great, but never seen that much snow in my life. No doubt about your inspection going well. Will you get it done before Christmas? Love and respect from the old man in the UK

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Awh thank you! I can't wait to share the inspection next week! Getting it done! I'll have the home heated by Christmas! But we won't be living in it before Christmas hahaha 😅

[@JeromeMartinez-y1y]

Don't forget dielectric grease on electrical connections outside like on the batteries, vinegar and table salt makes a great cheap but effective contact cleaner, be nice to have a surge protector expensive but better a tripped breaker than smoking your home, we lost a neutral on our incoming power line and it cooked light fixtures, a tv, our 240v oven, it was a mess, toasted the board on the clothes dryer, took ten months to find older style appliances that could handle electrical surges, here we have at least 9 outages a year I would like a solar system, but we have generators, always have a back up. And extra, supplies like thermocouples, board, fuses, got to be your own parts store just practical living, so much has changed.

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Thanks so much for all of this. Wow that’s really scary!

[@sarahschlosser1203]

Working in heat will be a nice change

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

I’m sooo excited haha

[@RichardSewAtjon]

👍👍👍👍👍

Hello from the twin cities

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Hi there! Thanks for watching!

[@Sailor376also]

Plywood is not even required for a blown in 'bulkhead', stop. Double wall cardboard works fine, New or used moving boxes, don't even unfold them. Leave then flat and doubled and can be installed with your squeeze stapler. One suggestion. Attic access. There will always be a need to climb into the attic,, for a light fixture change, bath fan replacement,, service cables,, and modern insulation is 2 feet deep at least,, So, before you insulate, find the tricksy spot to slip in a 2X10 or 2X12 crawl board. Your trusses form Vs and Ys find the line through the trusses that Even a 2X4 lacer nailed to a sloped truss element 12 to 18 inches up,,, your blown in guys will bless you. You can install your crawl board 12 to 18 inches above the ceiling,, one in either direction from the attic scuttle will be invaluable 10 or 20 years from now.

[@ronnielloyd4514]

Just curious, do you have a deadline as to when you think you will be in your house permanently?

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Nope :). Originally I wanted to be in before Christmas but it’s not happening haha 😆

[@JeromeMartinez-y1y]

This is where wood heat is better, no need for electricity

[@SimpleLivingwithBiata]

Agreed. But not putting wood heat in my trailer! Too dangerous in my opinion

[@JeromeMartinez-y1y]

😂 oh God no! To quote a tik tok jingle dumb way to die, 🙄 even rural anywhere one has to be prepared, we have had power out for days and neighbors got cold, cause everything was dependant on electricity, our former neigboors plan for the covid lock down was well planned, he had munchies, a 1/4 ounce of pot, a gram of wax, so he felt his priorities were spot on, 😑
