  • Welcome back to my channel where I share my simple and peaceful cottage lifestyle with a big focus on gratitude.
    Spring is almost here at my little cottage by the woods and I'm so excited to be spending time outside planting seeds and soaking in some sunshine. I've been dreaming up some fun ideas for the garden as well as some exciting plans to add to my Spring bucket list.
    Making a seasonal bucket list has become something I really love to do as it pushes me to get out and do more fun things. Please leave a comment below and let me know what things you're hoping to get up to this Spring!
    Thank you for being here! I'm sending you all the biggest hugs XOXO

    From a Southern 72 year old old great grandmother… GET THAT ETSY STORE OPENED!! I saw several I want to buy. You are such a precious beautiful very old soul. I see you living in the 60’s of my generation. Reincarnation? Maybe. You are so many things and have much to offer the world. You are gentle, kind, humble, very talented, it’s a long list and possess a beautiful aura. I have been fascinated with you from your first video which came at a good time in my life. I loved your clothes, adventures and your precious little Charlie. Thank you and much love and peace to you and your viewers 😊 p.s. I’m joining your Patreon!!!!

    I unexpectedly found out at the end of last month I was going to have to move, I’ve lived in my current home for just shy of 17 years and it made me really sad, I have been decluttering and donating as much as possible, so as little as possible goes to waste and although I was sad and scared, I’ve got to a point where I’m looking forward to making new memories in a new home. Also I have found watching your videos really helpful for my mental health and keeping me in a positive mindset.

    Hi Kate, I live in California and I patiently look forward to each one of your videos. I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels like you are a kindred spirit. Some of the things you share bring back some wonderful memories of my childhood living in Dover, Delaware. Today while you were talking about morning glorys I just had to share. When we lived there my mother and all of her friends grew blue morning glories over the front door every year. They remind me of her and I have been growing them in my garden for over 36 years. They bring me such joy and comfort. There is also a perennial blue morning glory that will come back every year out here. I'm not sure how it is with snow. I think if it was covered with straw or mulch it might make it there. Also I grow marigolds every year from the seeds of my plants I grew the year before. Here they come back fuller and taller. I've had them up to 3 feet. You planted them the way I do and I've always had success. They love full sun and are good for detouring bugs. Thank you so much for sharing! You are such a blessing!!!❤

From lemon yellow, to gold, some are more orange-like, and of course I adore the varieties that also include red! I have come to really enjoy marigolds over the last four or more years!

    CONGRATULATIONS ON CREATING A PATREON PAGE!!! I am more supported by you than you can begin to know, and now I get to support you back.
    I had already made a general bucket list, but going seasonal will be much more focused.
    As for the blessing of little reminders from people we’ve had to let go of for now… isn’t it beautiful that we have these? I have such reminders from both my parents, 1 grandmother, 1 great-grandmother, and more recently one of my sisters, to name a few. As the initial pain of loss eases, these little things become more sweet without the bitter of the early days.
    Again, good job with the decision on Patreon! ❤

As soon as I see you have posted a new one, I'm clicking on it. Charlie is an amazing little dog, and he will do just about anything for a treat, won't he? LOL That twitching, little upturned nose is so stinkin' cute!! I admire your artistic ability and the creativity you sprinkle throughout your days. I know I'M not happy unless I'm creating something! Marigolds are amazing flowers, because they reseed themselves and they are so hardy. You truly can't go wrong with them. My dream is to have a home where I can plant all sorts of flowers and create a butterfly garden and mini bird sanctuary. I'm so jealous you saw that owl....a very rare treat indeed! I collect bird feathers, and I'm sure I have one that once belonged to an owl. It's absolutely beautiful. Here's to glorious, magnificent Spring and all the rebirth that comes with it. Every Spring I am so thankful to be alive and witness the miracle. Let's hit those wonderful trails! 😍

    Hi Kate, it was such a wonderful surprise to be mentioned on your Story, thank you. I have written my Spring Bucket List too! I have 12 items, to plant as much as possible, to make home made Dog Treats (including Pumpkin Ice Cubes in anticipation of some hot weather, which I think Charlie will love too!) and to give somebody my smile (as Dolly Parton says, if someone is struggling, give them your smile). i am so happy to challenge myself too and had wonderful success with Marigolds last year, even though, they are not my favourite. I will take their beautiful coloured blossoms and enjoy them. Donna X

    💖 This was such a nice video. I grew up with morning glory (purple) on a fence we shared with a neighbor & under our dining room window at the front of our home was a small flower bed filled with marigolds (yellow & orange). They make such pretty flowers arrangements. I love a good list or two or three & a really thought out vision board, they help keep me focused. Your art is so pretty. 🌸

    I look so forward to your videos! So relaxing and so nice to be reminded to appreciate the little things and most precious moments. I so need to be reminded of this from time to time! I so love your little cottage and your decor. So my vibe! I so wish to have a little cottage of my own. Charlie is sooo precious! Congratulations on your PATREON page! Will be following there as well and pls keep us updated on your Etsy store.

    Charlie is really doing good with his training. He’s such a smart little guy!! Don’t want to be a downer but large birds like owls,hawks, and eagles can pick up small dogs. Charlie looks really small but it doesn’t seem he goes out without you which is good. I live in the mountains an I have a Yorkie so when there are large birds around watch him closely. I know you would do great on Etsy cause you have some great ideas!! I absolutely love your art and I know lots of people would!!! Blessings to you and Charlie!!🤗❤️

I'm looking forward to flowers too! Thanks for sharing yourself and Charlie! I wish you both much love and blessings!

    Thank you for such a lovely heart warming video. I love your voice, and this may just be me, but I would rather not have the background music, although it is lovely, it just distracts me from listening to your lovely words. I LOVE your beautiful Charlie as always, he is such a great companion for you, and he is so good at his agility tricks now! My rescue greyhound Madge has a twister puzzle to get treats out of, and she learned to do that so quickly. It keeps their brains active, and these puzzles are such a good idea. You really are the best owner for Charlie, and he loves you to bits back. Things are just starting to show themselves in the gardens in West Devon, England. The daffodils have been out for a couple of weeks now, and we have lovely yellow and pink primroses growing along the side of the road, in the Devon banks. My grape hyacinth has been out for a couple of weeks, and it is lovely to see their little blue heads amongst the greenery. My cherry and apple tree are in bud, and the little lilac tree I grow in a pot is budding too - so spring is really on the way! I wish you health and much happiness in your lovely home and garden, love and Blessings to you and Charlie, from Jilly & Madge xxx

Just btwn work and trying to keep up with my daily chores keep me so tired that I feel I’m missing out on small pleasures doing that bucket list will help me to stop and take the time. Thank you!

    Good evening! It's great to see another video from you & Charlie. He is good good at agility. My fur baby is enjoying watching lol. You sound & look so happy. I'm so glad to see your father's flower pot, it's beautiful. I don't know when sadness is mourning or even grief though I know I have felt all of them when I lost my dad ( and Mom). Yet the happy memories & remembering his sense of humor still brings me smiles. I wish you many more smiles than sad moments. I am so looking forward to spring. We didn't get a lot of snow this year but have had enough cold rain. Marigolds are a flower even I can grow here with all the evergreens blocking the sun. I'm still using seeds I've had for over 20 years. Am so looking forward to seeing yoir beautiful garden. You are so creative, really inspiring. My tiny cottage is 300 sq ft & with an active cat I can't keep plants inside. My little ole chihuahua will also appreciate warner weather. Wishing you success & fun in having patreon. Have a wonderful week with good health and I love the reminder to stop & enjoy the beauty ❤.
