Week in my life in the French countryside

Bonjour,
I've been wrecking my brain over a title for this video... :) I am just taking you along for a week or more gardening, a super quick visit to the goodwill store and having a friend over to help with the garden. Nothing special but a very productive week for me! The garden is all prepared to be gorgeous and glorious this summer!
Hope you'll enjoy this one! Thank you for being here!

    THIS IS YOUR KIND OF VIDEO I LOVE BEST! Simple. Pictures of the country. Slow music. It’s something I can turn my brain off and just sink into watching you live. I loved watching you create the gardens. I love watching your trees as they bud out each season. I love watching your house evolve… Slowly… But surely. I love listening to your soothing voice. I’m not too into the emaus videos because of the chaos of the store makes me feel overstimulated. You’re a really good -and inspiring- cook, and I love watching you prepare meals. But I can only watch about one recipe per video, It gets a bit boring if it is too much. Let me praise and encourage you to make more of the simple scenes. The cows. Your daily process. Your kitty cat! Pictures of the small towns. Leisurely going through your day. I’ve heard you mention that you worry these kind of videos are boring before… But I guarantee you, they are not! Everybody needs to take a break from their life! You give us that opportunity. Thank you so much my sister. Love you!❤

    Thank you so much! So relate to going to stores being overwhelming, at least it is to me. But on the other hand I love treasure hunting! I think more of the coming videos will be like this one as in these busy spring and summer months most of my time is spent tending to the house and garden, getting our cabin and cottage ready, welcoming guests and preparing meals so I guess you’ll love that! And Tigrette usually follows me around everywhere around the house so she’ll make her appearance often enough 🐈 ❤️😄

    We officially have winters but they seem to be less freezing and there hardly ever is snow. I do appreciate having a real fall though and then having darker winters which make me long for longer days and then when spring comes and all the trees blossom and flowers start to bloom it is such a treat!
