    Cathrin, I just wanted to comment on how greatly I respect you so conscientiously covering your baby's face and respecting his privacy. I love that you being a mom is part of your content but your CHILD is not the content. Awesome to see a UA-cam parent doing this so well! 👍🏽

  • @stretchypantslife
    @stretchypantslife Місяць тому +17

    That was your dream house though!! A little sad cause you worked so hard on it! I work in family law and my only piece of advice is keep your house and rent it out. You may need it again one day (let's hope not but just in case!).

  • @healthyholemealbread
    @healthyholemealbread Місяць тому +36

    I hope this move doesn’t add to your financial stresses. I know you’ve mentioned that because of the drop in your UA-cam revenue you had to change your salary to be less than your mortgage. I know you’ve probably thought ahead about this stuff but just hope you’re doing ok on that front. I know you invested so much time into this lake house as it was part of your vision to build the life you love and so hope that whatever happens in this next chapter for you that you manage to find peace with everything and continue to feel anchored by your passions and dreams.

I've packed up and moved to different countries abroad knowing no one. You've got it. As women we just do it. At 65 years of age I'm getting ready to move abroad again. Enjoy you new adventure. Blessings.

    I KNEW IT! I Knew “road trip was a cover on TicTok! Especially when I saw the door at the end, I was like girl. Haha! First of all crushed the move! Congratulations on that amazing job! Second am I right? Was that one bridge Cincinnati\Kentucky? I swear it looks exactly like a bridge that I’ve been over a few times because I live in Dayton and on the rare opportunity that I get an accessible vehicle rented and I can go down to Cincinnati Reds games, I go over that bridge all the time. If you were here in Ohio even for a minute, I’m low-key bummed that I didn’t get to say hello! Third, I’m sorry you had to move. I know how much that Lakehouse meant to you, but I hope you can remember that it’s for a good reason for your overall happiness for you and little man and like you said it’s not like you’re not going to get to come back to that house! Lastly let me know if you get a new PO Box! I would love to send something! You haven’t been able to read DM‘s in ages which is perfectly understandable, but I can just throw in a letter with what I wanted you to know about how much you helped me & a little gift!

    I remember my first road trip with my first was so nerve wracking but it was essentially a way to “rip the bandaid”. Now I’ve done mini road trips and a flight with 2 kids solo which I never thought I could’ve done alone EVER. It’s soooo empowering though!

Like I could see it being like “don’t do it like that, I’ll do it” just cuz you’re used to it. Are you worried about them bonding and being able to give them alone time?
