I just have to say how you both seem so happy and more relaxed! Welcome back Sowards, welcome. Back!
It's the lightness you feel when you've figured out the right size for your life. It's so easy to say yes to one more thing when all the things are good, and so hard when you've gooded yourself into overwhelm. There is no failure in recognizing that and right-sizing your life. Thank you for living your life out loud. We all have so much to learn.
Jess thank you so much for your last video. My husband and I have been dealing with similar things you brought up. We kept wanting more land and a bigger house. It started becoming stressful planning for those things. We finally decided to just live in the moment and be greatful for our little Homestead on 3 acres and our single wide mobile home. I’m about to give birth to a baby very soon and that is what is most important right now. Soaking up motherhood and continuing to grow food and raise our livestock. Today I picked some tomatoes and peppers and I felt God telling me this situation we have is “enough” for us. If he wants more for us he will make it happen. Blessings. ❤
So wise! Enjoy your new baby🎉
🙏🏼thank you for your comment 🤗similarly looking at other land 🤔possibilities and tho we’re in “older age bracket” you reminded me of what is truly important. Bless you.
I donate to Samaritan’s Purse organization because I’m too old to volunteer physically. Recently, S.P. has been working in Sudan to provide food for the thousands and thousands of refugees who are escaping the war area.
I put a picture of a child I call “little man” on my fridge to remind me to pray for him to have food today….that the protein mush will fill his little belly.
The people are putting up whatever kind of shack they can to get out of the weather. It makes me so thankful for my older house that we’ve lived in over 50 years that I get tired of sometimes and my little bit of yard that I have to tend.
You can dream your dreams while you live in the moment.
It is so moving to think you are embracing your season of life right now.
It won’t always be like this.
Warmest regards.
💜💜💜
I didn't realize it until this video how much your videos had changed when you were going through the stress of the summer. Today's video felt like a return to my friend Jess and her lovely perspective on things, in her lovely dress, wearing her lovely smile. Thank you.
Love seeing you more relaxed and just enjoying! You work so hard, you deserve it to be enjoyable. Living the dream!
I need to watch more of your videos ☺️ They always add joy and hope to my life and I want more of that energy 🥰
Enjoyed hearing your giggle again. It always lifts my mood. ❤
Oooh, I get to have coffee with Jess this morning! 😊.
Me too! 🎉
Same here! Best way to start the day. 😊
Jess, I just flipping love you and Jeremiah and the way you are vulnerable and share your lives. You guys are so brave and lovely!! It's incredible how we can all have these shared human experiences so far apart and still be connected. It was such a pleasure to meet you guys this summer. Your authenticity and commitment to community is inspiring! Thank you for sharing! ❤
Exactly. Make the most of where you are and what you have. It is enough!
It's been a hot minute since I got to enjoy my morning coffee while catching up with my favorite garden friend. ☕️ Missed you, Jess!
Your transparency is commendable!
In El Salvador and I believe some parts of Guatemala, it’s customary to use banana leaves instead of corn husks to wrap our tamales. They are kept moist when cooked, giving them a totally different texture.
You know what I miss that beautiful orange rose bush you had at the gate in Arkansas
Yesss....me to😊
I love all your animals and the names you gave them. I hope you & sweet Miah are happy with all your decisions. Thanks for mentioning the different growth in states that have a short growing season. Here in Northern Illinois, things are wrapping up for winter. Kinda sad.
I grew up in Alaska and we had Lilac bushes in front of our house that would bloom in late summer.
I fully thought lilacs were a fall flower and was gobsmacked to see them in spring when I moved “down south” to northern Oregon. 🤣
Love your enterprise
Avocado is precious!
Good mornin!
😂 I have goats that rarely graze because they love brush more than grass/hay. I give a grain snack at night, provide hay, 2 acres of free range and throw scraps from the garden. This morning dead sunflowers from the garden at the morning snack. 😊
So wished I was holding your camera for you while you were sharing that watermelon! Then maybe I could of had a just a taste of it too! LOL! Blessings Kiddos! 🌻🐛🌿💚🙏💕👵
Hey Jess, I believe instinct will kick in🐐. When I had my Alpines I did dry them off and up’d their nutrition prior to breeding so their body is ready for kids.
Goats are great!
So glad to see y’all 🤗🤗💕💕
Hey friend, it’s so funny you mentioned the differences in landscaping in New England compared to the South, because when I go down south, I do the same. My son live just north of Houston and I’m like I want foxtail ferns and agave plants too! 😂 It’s interesting at least to me. It weird to me that I can’t identify the native plants like I can here! It was. Nice hanging out with you on your video!
This was a lovely video, thank you❤
Steely Dan has a Josie song, but I’m partial to Josie and the Pussycats😊 (a cartoon from long ago)
I also assumed Miah was thinking about Josie and the Pussycats.
Hello Jess, hello friends 💝
Tinfoal...lol. Instantly remembered our Patreon chat when you said "wrasslin'"😂 I love that suthern. Don't hold back on account of us Yankees.
WOW that duck flock is huge!
I live where it doesn't frost, but the rainy season is from July to October every day. A lot of things cant handle that much water.
I think it depends on a lot of things on the sweet potato vine my wife grows them here in Michigan and they go wild up here
More WO than Go! Like that!
“Josie’s on a vacation far away!!” 🎶 😅
Horses get thrush
There is a song named Josie by Steele Dan.
Omgosh,Miah doing the goaty curled lip 😂 he’s a mess!
Our Mini Nubians are just entering breeding season in Alabama, give them more time. You can also synchronize breeding if it comes to that. I have a little dairy with our goats.
Eat those sweet potatoe leaves!! Those are medicinal.
Y'all are just so well set up for a U-pick operation. Is that something you'd consider?
I hope the incoming storm misses you!
Take the extra pumpkins to a Zoo or wild life sanctuary. 🦅🦅
😊❤😊
Jess your level of decorum in discussing animal sex is second only to David Attenborough
I wasn’t a rock and roll
girl, Rick Springfield’s (Couldn’t have told you that. I had to look it up!) Jessie’s Girl.
I watch you sow seeds and then swish them with your hand? 😂 it looks like you’re brushing them all away?
I dont goat...... But I had a goat friend say she retrained her goats to grass by putting their hay on the grass..... Not sure that would work for you.
Love your "feel good" videos. Not sure why, but it's manna ❤
If you listen to the guy that was heavily involved with the beginning of major AI he got out of it and thinks it really isn’t great and has completely switched sides
Won’t Guinea’s keep snakes away? I know they eat a ton of ticks!
WRT instinct kicking in, you grew up Christian. Were you taught? Yes, Instinct should kick in.
Because Nubians are ones that only cycle in the Fall, I would say their heats should be starting soon and if your buck is showing intense interest in one in particular, she is likely close to cycling or in active heat. If I remember correctly, though, wasn't she the one who mothered him, too? He may just be showing off how big he is now. LOL But yes, nature will take over even when goats have been used to having artificial insemination to get pregnant.
You two brighten my day. Good chuckles today .. thanks.
Pumpkins are great dewormer for chickens!
Can I ask what state you are in please? I know you've said before, I just don't remember.
I laugh similarily when I look at my winter squash and pumpkins this year. Going to have good food security for me and the chickens.
Jess, I love your videos and it’s so inspiring to keep going. But I must say for horses when they get thrush we use what’s called Blue Kot and it’s an anti fugal. Maybe try that if the wonder dust don’t work.
Can you recommend a book about teas? How to harvest leaves and flowers for blending.
Jess i love that you still get so giggly cute with Jeremiah. Y'all are such a beautiful couple. I enjoy those little jokes between Y'all. Much love to you both❤❤❤ May our Father God continue to bless you in wisdom and love.
my fave song by the outfields your love....starts with- josie is on a vacation far away xx
I started watching you a few years ago. I became more serious about growing in 2020. It has taken me this long to grasp the difference location can make. You talk about the tail end of you tomatoes just when I am finally able to harvest enough tomatoes to make Marinara sauce for canning.
Sweet potato leaves are very nutritious....
Well with our dairy goats the nights aren't cool enough to bring them heat, they are like deer mid October you should notice them being heat
Glad to see ya! Thanks for the video!
What happened to your other dogs? I have been here through the years and often wondered where the heeler, great dane and the young lsd dog went
Loved seeing the horses.
Lol definitely glad we are not like goats 😂😂 12:13
This is so whimsical I love it! 20:00
