Hello.

So, I'm starting this vlog off because I am heading over to my woodworking class.

As you can tell, I got my own safety classes.

We're making a bench.

So it's my first ever real woodworking class.

I did the safety class before, but This is a two week long course.

One class today, it's three hours and then next weekend it's another three hours

and then by the time that that's over I will hopefully have a functional bench

that we can have in the house or maybe in the backyard.

I'm excited, I'm nervous.

I haven't really done classes like this in a while so it'll be fun.

I'm bringing my water bottle.

Okay, I'm I'm running slightly behind.

I love it.

We need to take it.

You guys, I finished my first woodworking project.

Look at my bench.

Um, oh, wait.

I'm gonna put it down over here.

Look at it.

Imagine if I just sat on it and it immediately collapsed.

I can't believe I made this.

Well, I mean, I kind of can.

It's not like a super complicated thing or anything, but this is my first time making something with wood.

And it looks better than I expected it to.

The class was so much fun.

And now I have something that we can actually use and we can put it in the house.

And it makes me really excited to make other things.

So let me bring it closer.

It's kind of a weird angle.

I'm gonna sign up for another class later I'm either gonna do the end table class

or the cutting board class probably the end table though

Because I feel like I'll learn more from

that class than doing the cutting board one This is the

first time I really tried out a new hobby in a

while I tried to do a ceramics class a while ago

Like wheel throwing and I just didn't really love it something about the process of

of ceramics was not super appealing to me.

Let me show you a closer look at the bench so you can see my carpentry skills.

Also, of course, here's Theo.

And then here is Miss Winnie on her cat tree.

Check out this bench.

So we sanded it.

And so it kind of has smooth corners here.

I'm planning to paint it.

I'm gonna prime it and then paint it and I'll show you the colors I was thinking of doing.

So it's nothing, you know, it's not like a super special bench.

It's not perfect or anything, but I made it.

And this is the first thing I've ever made.

And I'm going to be able to use it for my plants and get that.

It's also not like super, super basic looking.

Like it kind of has some design going on.

I've been looking at my Ferron Ball color card sheet.

I'm thinking of either doing this color, Yeebridge Green, or I think this is the right color.

It's called Acuria Blue.

I've always really liked those two colors, so I'd like to paint this bench either one of those.

We use green a lot, though.

Like, we have green on the bench.

Or not the bench.

We have green on the chair.

But I feel like the blue could kind of tie in with this blue pot that we'll eventually have a plantain.

All right, Dio.

Look at you.

Look at you little guy, look at you.

I'm thinking of putting it here for now, so that way I can put plants here so they can get some of the south facing light.

And a reason why I decided to paint it and not stain it, well there's two reasons.

It's because the wood itself isn't really that nice, and also there are visible screw heads on the top.

We did domino joints throughout most of the bench, but there are eight screw heads that you can see on top.

So I want to do wood filler on top of those

and then paint over it so that way you can't see those.

And also I feel like eventually we are going to have a lot of wood throughout the space

so I think it would just be better to paint it

and also it allows me to use some of the fair and ball colors that I've wanted to use for a while.

Ideally I would have this centered with the window but Winnie's cat tracer and she loves this spot so it's in there.

I've had just like a couple of random plants here by this window

so I'm happy to be able to move them now.

Okay this one's here.

Also don't mind that black mat out there that's Winnie's litter mat it just got a bit dirty

so we cleaned it and it's drying out there.

This beautiful coleus.

I'm gonna trim this coleus though because it it's grown so much.

I'm gonna insert a before picture because yeah it's really grown a lot.

I love this plant.

I think it's a great indoor plant and it just brings so much color into your plants.

So if you have like a lot of green plants you can add some interest with a bunch of different coleus varieties.

There's like purple ones, there's more red ones, there's like orange, multi-color, and they also grow in this kind of fun funky way.

Like the branch is It's kind of gnarled now.

And yeah it's really formed an interesting shape.

If I wanted to make more of this I could just put it in water

and then it like roots super fast

but I don't really need more of these so I'm just going to cut it off and then throw it out.

Let me cut it here.

Look at that.

This plant gets a little bit dirty though

because it it sends out a lot of shoots and

if it's slightly under watered the older leaves start to brown off and die.

So it can be slightly messy so I'm just cleaning it up.

I've been really limited lately with where I can place plants

100

so I haven't really been able to do that much stuff with plants

101

and because of the burst pipe and like thinking

102

that we're gonna have to move out temporarily I just don't feel this need

103

or wants to like go out and buy more plants

104

and like set up plants and set up terrariums and aquariums

105

because then I'm just gonna have to move them all anyway and plants and

106

aquariums and terrariums are not easy things to move like they're very delicate

107

so yeah I'm sorry I haven't really really been doing very

108

much plant content lately I really miss it like I really miss having a lot more plants

109

but I'm hoping

110

that once we have a skylight too then we'll just really

111

open up the possibilities of where I can place plants

112

because right now we're just like limited in plant placement

113

which is why I'm happy to have this bench

114

because now we can like have plants here

115

because otherwise they were just sitting on the kitchen counter

116

and then also check out my geranium it flowers pretty often indoors

117

and it also has this cool funky shape to it I feel like coleus

118

and geranium are pretty similar plants and that they usually are grown outside

119

but I think they also make great indoor plants

120

and they take on these fun shapes as they grow out you You know some people would think

121

that this looks kinda ugly and it's not bushy and it's leggy but

122

you know I like those leggy kinda weird sorta ugly plants.

123

I don't know why it's making me like kind of emotional talking about plants right now.

124

I just feel like I haven't been doing that for a while.

125

And it's just reminding me of so many things and like bringing back a lot of memories.

126

Um, just like the way I'm talking about my plants and describing them.

127

It's making me think of a bunch of old videos that I've done and also a lot of my old plants. And, yeah.

128

I don't know.

129

I think, I'm going to be honest, I think after the fire, I haven't really, like, discussed it too much.

130

But in regards to, like, plants and plant keeping, the fire was really tough for me.

131

because I feel like all like the garden and the plants

132

and the house plants that I curated and I've nurtured

133

and I've taken care of like having them just be gone was really tough

134

and it kind of felt like replacing them wasn't enough it's kind of okay it's not exactly like this obviously

135

but the closest thing I can think of is like

136

if you have a pet

137

that dies like you can't just replace the pet like it's just not the same you know

138

and that's kind of just like how I felt with my

139

plants it's like kind of complicated in my head too it's complex I don't even think I'm really describing it

140

that well yeah I love plants obviously like I love plants and I love taking care of them but

141

I feel like after the fire something kind of shifted yeah I'm hoping

142

that once we're able to have the skylight

143

and then once the insurance thing is figured out then I'll be able to like find a lot of

144

that joy again that I had with my plants um

145

because like just talking about them them like I said talking

146

to you about them really just kind of like made me happy.

147

I'm really happy that I finally ended up going to the woodworking class.

148

It's been something that I've said I wanted to do for months now

149

and I finally just did it and I have a bench.

150

How cool is that?

151

And it's something that I've kind of been struggling with as I've gotten older.

152

I wonder if any of you can relate too but like

153

when I was younger I kind of felt like I could do anything.

154

I could learn anything as long as I applied myself I can become good at something

155

and for some reason as I've gotten older I don't know

156

if it's just from experience or what

157

but like I have kind of told myself like what is the point of learning something new like there are

158

so many other people

159

that can just do it better than me like what's the point of even trying

160

and that's just like not a good way to go about

161

life like how are you going to learn anything new how are you going to become

162

whatever it is that you want to become if you're not even letting yourself try.

163

I think a part of it is that like as I've gotten older,

164

failing or like being bad at something doesn't seem as like forgivable because I'm older.

165

Like when you're younger, you can make a lot of mistakes.

166

You can be bad at stuff and it's fine because you're young and you're inexperienced.

167

But for some reason, I like equate age with proficiency at pretty much anything

168

and that's just not the case um what else

169

oh huge well potentially huge update about the insurance we got an email saying

170

that they will complete their determination by the end of this month this month being august

171

so by august 31st we should hopefully have an answer according to the insurance who knows

172

if they're actually going follow through with it.

173

But that is the most concrete update we've ever gotten from them.

174

So I'm really hopeful that something comes of it, but we'll see.

175

I just, I think

176

that this like burst pipe thing has kind of been difficult for me more

177

so than I thought because like the house is linked to me in so many different ways.

178

First of all, it's our place where we live.

179

It's our housing, it's our security, but then it's also a space for my own personal creativity.

180

Like I get a lot of fulfillment from changing stuff around the house

181

and decorating and putting plants in places and kind of like forming a cozy environment that's reflective of us.

182

And we just haven't really been able to do it.

183

And then also the house feels kind of tied to my content creation

184

and my career and because of the burst pipe it feels like everything's sort of been halted and

185

so i just cannot wait for this era of the burst

186

pipe to be behind us my parents are coming over

187

and we're gonna hang out eat good food cook like always

188

and do some stuff around the house

189

but we're also gonna go to the Descanso Gardens

190

and right now the Descanso Gardens have these giant sunflowers out

191

that just started blooming so we're gonna go see that and it's really hot like it's really really really hot.

192

We're going through a heat wave right now.

193

What other place?

194

These are huge.

195

Oh you can see this one.

196

It's still down.

197

Wow.

198

These ones are really pretty.

199

And now we're at the railroad station with dinosaurs for some reason.

200

Oh, look at that!

201

Platypus!

202

What are you doing?

203

I'm showing you stuff.

204

I thought he was a rock.

205

Oh, he's so cute.

206

This is the ancient forest.

207

Yeah, sure.

208

Because the trees are crossing crossing.

209

Hey, McGee!

210

Tree ferns.

211

Love tree ferns.

212

Oh, bird's nest fern.

213

It's a pretty big bird's nest fern.

214

Ooh, another tree fern.

215

I love these skinny ones.

216

There's a fly that's getting me.

217

Do you like the table?

218

When I work on our animal, we're going to prepare that.

219

...sizes for 45 seconds on with a 15-second rest, and then we repeat that three times, and the reason we repeat...

220

Oh, it's your first.

221

Yeah.

222

Okay, that's pretty good.

223

Yeah.

224

Yeah.

225

You're able to pass it.

226

Oh, I thought it was that way.
