Now is it really necessary to watch a channel and make sure to leave a rude remark? Click off as easily as you clicked on and learn some manners. If it's not your thing, move on. Honestly, the way people have been raised is astonishing. This woman is such a hard working, humble and kind person who shares her life for people to get inspiration or even relaxation from for FREE. And as busy as she is, still makes the time to interact with viewers and answer their questions. Come on, this should be valued not criticized. Mary handles herself and those who don't even deserve a response with grace. Speaks volumes of her. We are SO Fortunate to have people like Mary who are such lovely and kind people to watch and learn from compared to the absolute garbage that is on most channels and tv today! I am a fairly new watcher, and I appreciate everything you do, even if something wasn't my taste, it's still fun to watch and see different things! Mary is a lovely lady with a beautiful home & family, her kindness is endearing. To those making such hateful comments, go spend some time reviewing your own backyard. Thank you for all that you do and share with us Mary. You are just wonderful. Keep on keeping on :)
