    Coco, I love hearing stories about your family life and husband. It’s so inspiring to young LGBTQ people to know that a loving healthy family life is possible. ❤️ Love you and appreciate your humor and wisdom, as always.

    That teapot is awesome! Probably Art-Deco from around the 1940s! I love it!

    Love the sound the petals make on the flower. The little click when you place them. You videos calm me, Coco. Thank you.

    This made me think of my grandmother (she had dementia) she would recognize me most times, shed smile and say joey i was waiting for you lets have ice cream (no matter what time of day) it was so sweet i have quite a few things she left behind i cherish them and our memories. Big hugs n love to you dearest coco 💗💗💋

    Beautiful. My nan had a massive stroke,and when I went to see her in hospital my mother warned she cannot speak. As I entered the room, her head followed me, and though unable to speak she sure knew it was me. Josefina sounds like a beautiful soul.

    This is such a nice story. The yard sale part had me hooked and the flower is beautiful. I have a dress my grandmother sewed me. It doesn't fit anymore but she made it for my little gay self and it holds such memories for me.

    Naps are good. Especially in times like these. I’m glad you’re not feeling guilty about them anymore because it’s not hurting anyone!
    I loved the story about your beautiful mother in law. That little moment of clarity has brought you a treasured moment for a lifetime. 💖

  • @cecilyerker
    @cecilyerker 4 роки тому +11

    I love the stories about Josefina’s tchotchkes. I have so many little items like that in my own home from all over, and I can truthfully say I love every single one of them. That mid century teapot is back in fashion again and the design is incredible. I’m really surprised that estate sales aren’t common in Spain but glad that you and Rafael got all the good stuff.

  • @UpNorth3390

    So glad you saved the chachkies. Some of that so called junk would probably do well on ebay but the memories are priceless.

    Hey girl. Always good to hear your voice. I too have been napping a lot. Some of it because we’re stuck at home, and other is because I’m just not sleeping that well.

    That flower is fabulous. I’ve been going through old photos of my kids when they were little and old friends when we were young. There’s a few of friends that died of AIDS the last horrible plague. It brings back great memories.

  • @auntvesuvi3872
    @auntvesuvi3872 4 роки тому +1

    Thank you, Miss Coco! 💜 Your story reminds me of something that happened to me when I cared for my ex-husband's father (who had severe Alzheimer's) the last 9 months of his life. His condition was so serious, he couldn't walk, couldn't talk. But at one point he seemed to have a moment of clarity, saying, "I'm home!" And tears just poured out of my eyes and replied, "yes, you're home! We're so glad to have you here!" But then the moment faded. Like you, it's one of the little things I treasure. 💎 Your Rafael yard-sale story was hilarious!!! 😊

  • @clairemoniz4341
    @clairemoniz4341 4 роки тому +3

    That teapot looks like it's Deco, from the 1930s! I love it. And when the flower bloomed...❤
    Thank you for sharing these wonderful memories. I too lost my mother, but think of her often. Particularly during this dark time.

    Coco my darling I know you've heard this already, but yr little stories everyday, I look forward to them. You are making excellent use of yr time and this medium of Facebook to connect with people and bring a little lightness into a very dark world. After I've watched a new video I go back and replay but I don't watch I only listen to yr voice. Like Tension Tamer Tea, yr voice calms me. Love you my dawling, virtual hugs and kisses from New Orleans. 💋

    That teapot is beautimus!
    Your story reminded me of my mother, who years ago took a bad fall down the stairs and was "out of it" for over a week. Then I walked into her hospital room one day, and when she saw me, a huge smile came across her face and I just knew she was going to be all right. And she did recover from it.
    It IS the little things, like a hello or a smile, that make the moments of our lives that we cherish the most.

    This one made me cry. It finally clicked with me the full extent of the message. I’ve been watching since the first of these, but now that I’ve moved away from a lot of my culture, it reminds me to really appreciate even the things I find scary at first in my new one. Thank you Coco. Love you x from NY to Japan :)

    Oh, Coco. I cannot tell you what these daily thoughts of solitude mean to me. I look forward to them every day, and while the world has become a frightening place, your musings over the things that matter in that gentle, salted Bronx delivery are so wonderfully poignant, and make me feel truly connected to the things that matter most. This series is just incredibly calming and inspirational to me - Thank you, thank you, thank you beautiful.

    Hi Coco.... It's Jerry in NYC🗽 I LOVE your stories each day. Honestly, it's been my devotion before I go to bed. Haven't done that in years!! 😁 Thanks for sharing your sweet little memories that remind us to think about ours too. And it's TRUE, they, in fact, do become the big things. Thanks for sharing. It has made being shut up and locked down in solitude in NYC a little easier. I look forward to them every day. I LOVE YOU, MISS COCO....
    PS, I graduated in 1983 too 😯
    Take care and you And Rafa stay healthy and happy! 😊

    I love hearing your little stories they make me smile.
    I have a little story to tell you if you read this comment. My husband and his family never did yard sales either which was funny because he didn’t come from a wealthy background, his parents were hard workers and worked for everything that they had. I came from the opposite (not really what you would say rich parents but well to do for) When we first started living together I inherited some of my mom’s things and didn’t really want them as me and her never had a what should say good mother daughter relationship. I took these things and set up a yard sale and he was laughing at me saying that things were not going to sell it was just all junk ( you know the typical response you get from a spouse) LOL. Amongst those things was this old reproduction table fastening meat grinder. As I put it in the pile he looked at me and laughed and said nobody is going to buy that seriously... it’s a meat grinder. I get my things set up and my first customer happens to be an older gentleman who sees the meat grinder sitting on top of the table. He asks me about the meat grinder first thing. My boyfriend now husband is sitting in the car not really caring about what is going on. The older man asks, what do you want for this meat grinder!? I said $15 he says, give it here. 😂 he could not believe that it was the first thing I sold. After that he was next to me looking and listening to what I was selling. I made $150 that day and he looks at me once we are done and asks, your taking me out to eat right? 😂

    "Hola" I've gotten into the habit of listening to your Thoughts every evening after a home office day, sort of as a reward for having made it thru the day and start the chill part ... today I slept longer and found Coco Thoughts as #1 of the list , so I listened to your thoughts #12 for bfast (here in EU/Germany) it's 8.30 am now. I can only say you cheered me up ... and maybe we're lucky and another Thought will be out just in time for a hopefully healthy and calm Thursday evening / night. Also I love the positive comments and vibration that are reflected in the comment section. You are obviously an inspiration to so many ... thank you for that. I am so sick and tired of the omnipresent hatred and division almost everywhere else on social medial. We need more Coco in this world! Now more than ever! Thank you so much! And ❤️ to everyone🤗

I had a hard time sleeping and I knew I couldn’t actually fall asleep for awhile. These thoughts, stories and inspirational things were just the ticket to keep me happy and warmed at heart while I waited out a wide awake night. Thank you. Truly. You are such a gem.

  • @dixierae6063
    @dixierae6063 4 роки тому

    Dear Coco you are my siesta. With every video I feel like I am breathing in health healing and love. The greatest gift is I'm starting to quickly remember all of the very little things in my life that turned out to be big things. Turning 60 in March was difficult as I'm sure it is for many. With our world-changing so drastically right around then there was no room or time for the luxury I'm feeling self-pity over a number. What I did hang onto with the desire to reflect unforgotten life experiences. I was feeling a little sad as I didn't receive a gift. Well I'll tell you I certainly did receive a gift and that gift came in the form a fabulous drag queen named Coco Peru. To you and Raphael please stay safe and be well and I will see you soon. Big hugs.

    My parents recently downsized and gave their art collection to us kids and rather than immediately grabbing the expensive stuff I went for what I remember hanging over the sofa when I was a kid looking up from watching Batman. The “junk” they bought as a young couple with kids in the 70s rather than what an interior designer chose for them. Because the little things are the big things.
