Hi Joel I have been watching your,Channel for a while now. I'm not a member, sorry! Now I am about to take the plunge into blogging to promote the company we've formed. I'm an education consultant and would like to ask your advice about your success?
I won't type it all here. How do we start? And how do we get noticed? And how do I make my blogs look natural. That is what you are good at, even when you film what you describe as a dull week, still looks really good.
I really would value your advice.
Currently, I live in Moscow, Russia and have lived for at least 6yrs. If you and keegan ever get the chance, obviously when things settle, you come we would gladly show you this beautiful city and endlessly fascinating country.
If you are able to respond, then I will look forward to it.
Joel loves books. He needs to be a professional book on tape reader. I would listen to any book he read out loud.
Yes!! I've always thought that. He would do so well. Sadly they don't get paid enough.
Me too!!
Could still do it.
Read small books to us as an experiment
He'd be "Simon 2.0"
Fenn creeping his way under the blanket melted my heart. 15:45. 🥰
Me too!!! Cuddly bunny! 😊~Cara
he is so cute and funny :)
I loved this "boring" vlog because it wasn't boring. It was very low-key, slow-paced and relaxing to watch. There was a vlog where you ran errands about town, then cleaned the house, picked up Tayla & drove her to sport or a class, then cooked and finally watched TV with the family. That vlog seemed so busy that I was anxious about my life and all the things I needed to be doing or had avoided. That vlog was stressful for me. This one was like a needed "Netflix & chill" kind of vibe, especially since I watched it at 8:45AM in Boston, Massachusetts. It was a relaxing way to ease into my morning. Thank you.
LOVE YOU GUYS. I literally came across your channel this week and I am hooked.
Great vlog Joel, but my favorite part was when you were on the couch with both dogs and you covered Fen with the blanket and he just stayed there for awhile! Dogs are funny! Enjoy your holiday in FL! I hope the weather is sunny for you! ☀️
2:22 I have that chopper and it makes meal time SO much easier. I use it for potatoes when making huge pots of potato soup this time if year. It took me hours to dive all the potatoes before I had this. Everybody needs one!
I live in America and l can tell you a new release at B n N is around $30. Half Price Books, you guessed it $14.99 for one of their new arrivals. From $12.99 down to $3.99 for used or out for awhile. Depends on cover and quality. Books a Million is basically done.
You’re never dull, Joel. You are a joy to watch.
I often will not watch for a little bit. So I can binge several episodes at once. 🥰🥰🥰
Awwww Joel.....I love how Fen has accepted you as part of the family.......how he sat patiently whilst Ava was giving you kisses & then he snuck under the blanket was just adorable... both beautiful dogs ❣️.
Your wrist looks sore bub....may I make a suggestion.....try sudacreme on it as that was great when I had blisters where buckle from watch strap had made skin red raw, plus it acts as a barrier when wet.....after all moms swear by it as nappy cream......give it ago & see what you think.....a little goes along way too 🤞🏼.
Enjoy your books. Great vlog by the way 👍🏻 x
I agree that you should be an audible book narrator. I listen to a lot of recorded books and I am very particular about the narrator. One of my favorites is Iggy Toma. I will listen to a book just because of him. You would be great at it and I love your voice. Just a thought.
Also, Duncan Donuts should sponsor you for as much as you mention them on your channel.
Yay! We have a Debbie cameo!!! I love her! I get the whole shopping thing for food when kids are older! My word its like feeding 6 kids when there are only 2! Especially teen boys. My brother has 4 boys all 2 yrs apart. They are older now, but gosh cooking dinner was like cooking for a small restaurant! 😂😂😂 So glad you have all your books now and can happily read on your merry way! Thanks for letting us come along. Always ❤
Mom is beautiful ❤
😂😂Doggie cuddles chaos on the couch can relate to that. Just adorable Fen loves his warmth❤.
Your Wrist looks so painful 😢 hope it heals very soon. I Bet your both looking forward to very much to your
Holiday to the “Sun& Warmth “ after all the Storms,rain,Snow ice .
Lovey to see your mum hope she and your Dad are doing well 😊. Have a lovely Sunday evening and a Good week 🥰
Good morning from Kansas City, Missouri Joel!
i have to say, watching your chill moments on the sofa with the doggies just doing your thing is relaxing to me! I am glad you get those moments! it can be REALLY hard in adult life with how busy it is, to snag moments like that!
Barnes and Noble is the only nationwide bookstore chain there stil is open. It's been raining a lot here in Southern California the last few days. Today is the last day. We're having what's being called an atmospheric river weather event i sent a video to family friends yesterday of a major freeway in Los Angeles, the 710 in Long Beach that was flooded and cars were driving through the water. There shoul$ lots of green grass and pretty flowers 🌷🌹 sprouting up in the next month or so with all of this rain.
I'm so happy you have brought back weekly vlogs. They were my fav & still are so fun to watch! ❤
I love the crescent city series. I’m on the third book now. This series was my introduction to Sarah j Maas. She has me hooked and I’ll definitely be reading her other series.
I don't find your videos at all boring! In fact, they're actually very relaxing, like catching up with a nephew from across the pond, lol. It's great that you and Lucy have tenants now for your London house. Such a great investment. Your screenplay project sounds challenging, but very exciting. Being an avid reader must help with your writing skills. Thanks for an enjoyable video!
that shirt on Fen! so cute and funny! adorable! love them doggies. :) I was laughing though, when he got up the sofa, because it seemed he was fixin to knock the camera over with his tail. lol (sorry Ava got sick btw; I am glad she was right as rain, very quickly!)
Don’t apologize for boring content it’s not boring at all it’s your daily fun activities I enjoy these weekly vlogs from you keep them coming. And yes crescent city is a chunky series i read the first book I am starting Nr two soon
I just love you guys! I haven’t been getting notifications for you! You popped up this morning so I am catching up!
Everyone at my local Starbucks in chicago know me and my order. When I’m on holiday, they get worried.
Hi Joel. I appreciate seeing how much you enjoy visiting bookshops and reading. A definite sign of a "good egg". 😂 Thanks for taking us along with you. Enjoy life, you certainly deserve these happy times.
Yes, the books in the UK are much cheaper than in the US. Books are even more expensive in Canada.
Hi Joel and keegan,
Just joined your vlogs. They're just the best guys , Simon. X
This worked out perfectly. While I was listening to you going through your busy week I managed to clear out stuff and get somewhat organized. Definitely a work in progress. Stay well. 👍🙏😎
@TheJoelWood Joel, I noticed in your last vlog that you use Sensodyne toothpaste, and I don't know why, but everytime I have used it, it made my lips crack in the corners. I have tried it several different times and it always did that. I loved seeing your mom again, she is so sweet!
I love this video! I'm excited for you and Keegan going to Florida soon. I hope the weather cooperates.😊❤
I had no idea books were so much cheaper in the UK! I hardly ever buy books because of the price. I'm at the library all the time, but I'd go broke buying books as fast as I read.
Thanks for another enjoyable video. It feels like catching up with a good friend 😊
If the sitcom is not made, could you convert the script into a play? It sounds fun and would be worth performing if the TV version does not work out! Hugs! Thank you for the video! PS: Books are extortionately expensive in Australia.
You seem like a lovely person and your boyfriend as you obviously know is absolutely gorgeous 😍
Great vlog, not boring. Thank you for taking us. Glad you're wrist is healing and you've got warm travels soon. So glad you're enjoying the TOG series, I loved it, and how fun to get in on the new release excitement. Yes books here are rediculous prices, which is why I end up doing audio. Especially if they are read by a good narrator, bonus if they've got a great voice like yours.
Fen DNA was great to watch your reactions and learn that. He's so cute burrowing under the blankets and snuggling with Ava.
Loved a Debbie cameo and can't wait to hear about your sitcom. If it doesn't go, I'd buy a copy of the manuscript.
Joel, I know the "pain" of the children not having the same end times. When our 2 girls were in different schools I got to work from home instead of the office 1 day a week. From 3pm to 6 or 7 was CRAZY. It went something like this: Pick up the oldest from school. Then 20 minutes later pick up the youngest from school. 20 minutes later drop oldest off for sports practice. 20 minutes after that drop youngest at dance. 20 minutes later pick oldest up from practice. Final pick up an hour after that. Try to not fall behind with work AND have dinner ready by the time of the last pick up! It was only that fall school term and all the locations were only 1 mile, maybe 1.5 away. But seemed like all I did was drive that loop! Enjoy. They will be off at uni.
The short stories in Assassins Blade is good to read because people from those show up later down the line so their significance will make more sense once they come up. I heard people doing a tandem read of books The Tower of Dawn/Empire of Storms. You can find them online.
Happy holidays when they come enjoy ❤
Cute weekly vlog, and it’s ok if it’s just normal, as you said, normal can be quite nice. 🙂 I do think it would be cool if you wrote a novel, you know we’d buy it! And I think it’s so sweet how affectionate Ava is, she’s the best. ❤ Thanks for taking us along this week. 🙂
The title of this video appeals to all my interests: Genealogy, Writing and Shopping (in Leeds)
Congrats on renting out your house! Thanks for sharing your week with us. Enjoy the start of a new one! 😎🥂
I never think your videos are boring. It was fun to find out that Fenn is pure bred.
Two tips for screenwriting. Show, don’t tell. And realistic dialogue. Yes, both hard but both soooo important. And sooo different from novels etc. Maybe you’ve got those already. But in case not. From a Hollywood gal 💐💞💃
I don’t know why books are so expensive in the US. But my hunch is that reading books is an elitist thing. I know. Totally stupid but maybe true. 🤷♀️
I would imagine advertising (book tours, etc...) is a much bigger cost here than in the UK.
Joel, put Vaseline on your lips. Lip balm just makes your lips want more without helping. Vaseline 2-3 times a day has done wonders for my lips.
It’s nice to see that we all have these types of weeks. Have a great week ahead. See you in the next vlog.
Bless you! I wish more people were self-conscious about talking (on a phone) in public!
For your wrist, it will heal faster and is less likely to scar if you keep it moist. Even just Vaseline and a bandage will help it heal quicker. But glad it is healing nicely :)
Always went in to that Waterstones shop when I worked in Leeds city centre. It's been therevfor years 📚
Good morning from Louisville, Kentucky!
Try a lip balm with beeswax, or some other more natural product. The petroleum ones are said to make dry lips even dryer, not sure if it’s true but worth a test.
I went to Waterstone in Glasgow! Loved it!
I normally just get my books from the library. They’re getting to be a little too expensive now a days.
You need to buy some " Neosporin " it will be perfect for for your wrist. When I went for a facial the technician said it's the best for your lips; because it will heal rather then just put wax over your lips. 🎉
Good morning! I need some same, same but different in my wfh routine. I’m stealing this phrase shamkessly😊 Loving the longer weekly vlogs, thanks Joel. Hope you and Keagan have a great week ahead!
You should probably take a Vitamin D3 supplement. It is lacking in almost everyone during winter when sun exposure is decreased. You may find it help your dry skin issues.
Love your video even if it was a dull week for you! I enjoy your videos so much! Ava was beautiful as usual and Fenn was very handsome too! If I ever get to the UK I’m going to stock up on books and ship them home (to the U.S.). I wish I had more time to read. I listen to Audible a lot as I can work and listen at the same time. Sometimes it’s just hard to figure out what everyone will want to eat….if you forget something you just have to run back out. Hope you have a good, upcoming week!❤
Joel love the daily vlog. Always fun seeing your mum and the pups. When you take your holiday in Florida I’d be curious to see if you find that the prices have increased since your last visit. Inflation is high! ~Cara 😊
My favorite actor wrote a book and I ordered a signed copy from Waterstones. I live in the U.S. I was shocked how cheap it was even with the shipping.
Books are even more expensive in Canada vs USA!?! Enjoy your weekly vlogs very much, Joel.
If Keegan gets a new passport he will definitely need a new ESTA (visa). Exciting you are going back to Florida - we’ve not been since 2018 and miss it so much. Have a great holiday.
A vintage Penguin section, I just need to go to my parent's house and look at one of their bookshelves and they have plenty of original vintage Penguin books. I might not tell them that some of their books are classed as vintage!
I wonder if Fen has that extra muscle that some dogs get, I can't remember what they call it, but yeah he is definitely more than what I've seen in this breed lol. You and Keegan must be excited about getting some Florida sun soon. I can't believe how inexpensive books are in the U.K. They are literally half the price, and what's also interesting is our books are even more expensive in Canada, go figure. Joel, I was thinking you might want to have Tayla and Fletcher make a list of their favorite snacks, one less thing to stress about. Looks like you had things to do, and you got them done, thanks for taking us along, see you next week.👍
You have made a comment about how expensive a book costs in the U.S. We pay more in Canada! On the back of a book there is usually the price of the book and we pay more than the U.S. Being a voracious reader, I belong to Indigo's book club and I get my books (pocket/soft cover) usually 2 for $20.00 plus tax.😊
another winner, Joel. I always enjoy the chatty vlogs - I think I heard you say "cookie" for the first time vss "biscuit". I think you're getting Americanized!! If you keep coming to the states, we'll make an American out of you yet!! As for the cost of book in the states, I don't know why they're so much more expensive. That was interesting about Fenn - a full blooded Italian Greyhound. Hope you have a great week!!
That's because what he had was a cookie and not a biscuit
I just went to Barnes and Noble today and was complaining to my mom about how expensive the books are now! $18 for a paperback insane
I enjoy all your vlogs! You should read Fourth Wing and Iron Flame! They’re really great!
Oh my goodness I love you grocery shopping and showing us🥰
I saw how much you love your chopper! You must have been a French Revolution executioner at the guillotine in a past life!
Oh man me TOO! I find it very uncomfortable when someone calls me when am out and about. Well anytime really but in public especially :)
Fantasy books are very cool. Have you ever read The Mists Of Avalan? The authoress isn’t the nicest to be fair, but the story is great.
Am SO with you on how much better it is to read a paperback
I'm the same
BOOK - Effigies by William K. Wells
Loving Keegan's haircut!
15:48 I relate to Fen so much 🤣 I need blanket all the time 💜
I have really bad eye sight so reading is difficult (so sad as a former avid reader). I have started A Court of Thorns and Roses on audible. SO good so far ❤
It's great isn't it!!! Glad you're enjoying it!
@@TheJoelWood and @pollyduron674: I used to drive long trips for a living and I fell in love listening to audiobooks. Anyone that reads this and thinks they might like to listen to audiobooks, please try to get your books in the unabridged version, that way you get the whole book not just parts of it. I also agree with many other people on here Joel. I think you would be fantastic being the voice for audio books. I know from one of your other blogs you said your not sure if you want to do them due to the low pay that the voice actor gets for doing them. I personally think you have the perfect voice for them, the right tone, the right inflection and the perfect pitch. I hope one day you'll get the chance to do an audio book that you really like. I hope both of you and your families have a wonderful weekend
21:21 She’s always a delight on the channel!
Hello from Michigan. Thanks Joel, always enjoy your videos. Eww, who would want someone's used mattress??!! I can see providing the bed frame but renters should get their own mattress. Besides being clean, It is a personal item that needs to be tried for an individual's comfort.
In Australia books from a main bookshop can be $35 and up
You have a very nicely balanced life.
How about write the book, then if your still inspired, turn it into a screenplay. Best of both worlds💕
I was a fantasy fan starting in middle school with Tolkien starting with the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings and then the Silmarillion and the books of lost tales which son edited. I did read some other non-Tolkien fantasy books one series was from Ursula Le Guin (Earthsea Trilogy).
I too love fantasy fiction. From Blood and Ash is another amazing series!
It was truly a fun vlog and you looked absolutely flawless.
With one item missing (latest 9.2.) everything has arrived at your post box. Looking forward to maybe helped a little (lips), spoiled (stomach) and for future burns. There’s a creme for real sensitive skin (it’s a medical one) with eases scars and is good as Night Creme. And for raw and dry hands in the winter. You’ll be happy about the thing for your lips. I healed my labello lips with it. Also fine around the eyes. Love Ava / Eva from Germany
Remember to take vitamin k3 to the vitamin d. Or didn’t you read it as usually 😂❤it’s very important
The medical Creme is supposed to arrive 6.-9.2.
I only buy magazines at Barnes and Noble because they’re the only place I can get good British home mags. Otherwise we buy books cheaper on line.😊
Any wound on our skin should have antibiotic ointment applied to it at least once because this simple step kills any flesh eating bacteria that might be present.
Okay, but was the bed delivery successful!!! You checkov’s gunned us but we need to know!
haha!! It was! Drew got it all sorted for me - but I spent all week stressing about it! I'll update you in next weeks vlog!
@joelwood Just curious as to why you are hanging onto your London house as opposed to seeling it to give you more borrowing power for the house you and Keegan want. I assume because you made a committment to Lucy that the two of you would hang onto it for X number of years.
You sir have a great voice. Do you do audio books?
Had a great listen. Loved it 😊
I have a lot of trouble with deliveries as well. Here in the states FedEx is the worst offender. When ordering I always look to see who will deliver the item. If it's FedEx I'll go back on line and try and find the same item delivered by another company. PS: your vlogs are never boring.
feeding your dog pineapple prevents them from craving poop, there is some type of mineral in poop that they eat when they have an upset stomach at least thats what i heard.
Parking in Leeds is so expensive. I take the bus from Wakefield when I go into Leeds. £2.00 bargain!
Did I see that correctly? Is the houmous (Hummus) not refrigerated in that store?
That confused me too! Normally it's in the fridge!
If you are interested, I’ve heard there are products you can give your dog to stop them wanting to eat cow poo. Make sure it’s not the kind to deter them from eating their own poop, which I don’t think would work if she’s eating cow poo 💩
You should stack up all the books you read and see how many trees it cost.
thanks as always!!
If Keegan has a new passport, he’ll have to get another ESTA, all the dates are different on new passport to his existing ESTA 😊
BEING DISABLED, HARD TO CUT, BACK PROBLEMS HARD TO STAND CAN YOU POST ON FAVORITES OR SEND LINK TO VEGGIE CHOPPER?
Do you have a humidifier? I got one and it helped my dry lips a lot!
Since you like fantasy have you thought of going old school and reading Dune. Also I don't like the way UA-cam ends the videos, now. I assume it's to get in one more advert. And I don't really mind that, but after the advert it just goes back to the odd still. It doesn't look like the polished finish that it used to.
