    Anyone who gets their GED can’t complain. You have a gorgeous house, new vehicles, lovely furniture, two wonderful kids. You’re a hard worker, honest, generous. Good marriage with a wonderful wife. What better is there in life?

      You don't seem to know much about anxiety ... & I've never heard him simply "Complain." Not sure if you saw his last video or how long you've been watching but he's wildly grateful for what he has. However, he also deals with anxiety.

      I agree. I didn't graduate from high school in the year I was supposed to. I graduated a few years later in a pioneered night school at my former high school and graduated with excellent grades. So, AL, everyone is smart in their own way. You are very smart and don't think anything less of yourself. See ya tomorrow. ❤

    You know what Al, so instead of you graduating from High School, you got your GED. Well that's just as good as a diploma. My daughter did the same thing. That is not an easy thing to do. My daughter studied really hard for that test. Maybe some of your haters should try and see if they could pass it. And not only that, look how successful you are. don't let the haters win. You have a beautiful family, home and business. Congratulations and God Bless.

      School diploma’s don’t impress me at all. If people knew the purpose behind that debt that you create. Graduate and what can they do? Not a lot, not even think for themselves. Thats how much they indoctrinate ay college’s and universities. Learn a job and make money. That will put food in your mouth and clothes on your body. A big debt won’t.

    You have absolutely no idea how important you are to our lives! We search everyday for a video of you. You sharing with us your family, faith, time, yourself means beyond measure. I will just tell you do you know how important you are in our lives! I am a 72 year old woman who is the soul caregiver to my husband with Alzheimer’s. We are basically homebound. We moved to a new city , unable to get out and make friends and unable to get out other than to have the grocery store bring my order out to the car! Or do a drive thru at a fast food restaurant. You provide us with a daily extended family. We watch your children grow, the love you have for your family and the compassion you have towards others thank you. Let haters hate! They are missing out on a joyous life

    Al, I cannot possibly express to you what an incredible family you have and how obvious it is that you are such a great husband and great dad you are! No degrees, or any other special pieces of paper that claim a person is smart proves absolutely nothing. Walking the walk and talking the talk, doing unto others as you would have them do unto you, is the right pathway to take. God will truly honor you where your treasure is at and that is obvious to see that you are a good solid family man, which is what He intended. Great job! Take your much needed break, breathe a little, and allow God to show you what steps He has for you next. You are a good man and an excellent example to thousands, don’t let the haters get to your head. We will be keeping your health, your business and your family in our prayers…..God bless you guys….. drop a hello when you can!

Some of the most successful and rich business men I know also dropped out of school for one reason or another. You are brave, loving, caring, kind and generous. Cut it up and stick it to your haters. They're only jealous.

    The most important thing about you Al is not that you worked for a GED instead of the equal high school diploma, but that you love the Lord. Your love of the Lord is evident in everything you do from doing free yard transformations, giving generously of your talents, time, food, money, and mostly the respect and compassion you show others. Your beautiful family is a direct result of your giving heart. Anyone can get a high school diploma or GED, but not everyone has the giving heart that you do. When you are no longer here on earth people will fondly remember you for your compassion and kindness. They will not remember anything else. God bless you, Al.

    Every time I hear anyone spouting hate, it's usually motivated by extreme jealousy. Normal people love you. Nobody cares about haters. Enjoy your life we do.🎉

    Love it.😍
    Did you saw off a portion of the trunk so the tree can drink?
    The bottom of the trunk seals over once it’s cut - to save water.
    So you keep it submerged as soon as possible.
    I grew up in Minnesota and we always had “live” trees so us kids learned early.
    PS - the haters can fluff off - to much of that crap starting when trump & January 6th.
    You’re doing great and your family loves yea!
    🙏🏻🕊❤️💙🕉🌲🌲

    Al, reaching you from Canada. Congratulations for what you do, and for spending that quality time with your family, a special one, indeed. God Bless you for taking care of all of those less fortunate homeowners who may be suffering and therefore, unable to take care of their properties. God will definitely fill your life full of his Graces.

    AL BLADEZ, YOU ARE WHERE GOD WANTS YOU TO BE AND ALL THAT YOU DO IS CATAPULTING YOU INTO HIGHER HEIGHTS. MY SINCERE PRAYER IS THAT GOD CONTINUES TO BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY IN ALL THAT YOU DO. REMEMBER THAT SOME OF THE SO CALLED SMART PEOPLE DON'T ACCOMPLISH WHAT YOU HAVE. EDUCATION OR NOT, IT IS GOD WHO DESTINES OUR LIVES, ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS THE WORK REQUIRED. GOD BLESS Y'ALL AND KEEP Y'ALL.❤❤❤❤

    Wasn't able to finish high school either infact I dropped out in the 10th grade yet I was able to have a wonderful career inspite of not having a diploma ! I worked my way up from the bottom and made it onto management and Don't sell yourself short because of a diploma ... It doen't mean we're stupid because we're Not ! I'm now retired and have a Retirement Check to add to my Social security and Because of my Love /Faith in The LORD I Want for nothing !!!❤

    @ 9 mins - we walked similar paths - dropped out of high school, went in the Army at 17, realized years later I wasn't stupid, I was simply just bored to tears at school...had to move at the pace of the bell curve, but my brain moved at the speed of light lol. Laughed till I cried when you said every time someone tried to force you to do something you just don't do it. Good on ya mate! Ended up getting into electronics and had a totally amazing and wide-ranging career! Now I am semiretired and consider myself Funemployed - only doing work that I find fun and appeals to me. 70 years old now with no plans to retire completely because I love being of service to others!

    Some of the most intelligent people never graduated high school. It's not even a thing!
    As for going through things, I really get that, with a family member that is not going to be around long, it has been tough. I'm glad to have your VLOG back to distract me for a little bit each day!

    Al, Please read this!! When I was in high school I had zero self confidence. I even graduated early just to get out of there because
    One, I had to work, parents didn’t contribute any money and had me living with grandparents. And two, because I hated school. I thought I was no good! Then years later I had my IQ tested through vocational rehabilitation office and turns out I have a genius IQ. Who knew?!?
    I certainly didn’t. That gave me the courage to start learning and I became a sponge. No I didn’t get my college degree, but I know many things. Not tooting my own horn, just saying sometimes people need a boost of confidence. If my family ever uplifted me I might have thought I could do more with myself. Do please don’t beat yourself up over not graduating. Many many very successful people didn’t graduate. And look at you and how much you’ve accomplished. You’re an amazing stand up family man who always does for others. You have amazing friends and quite frankly YOU ROCK DUE!!!! ❤
