You are TOO GOOD for CZcams. I want you to know that you are appreciated by 99.999999999% of us; the others are here to try to put a damper on your sunshine. Thank you.
I don't think any of us would define you as 'slacking' 😂. If anything, ya'll need more breaks! Hope you do take some no-work days because stepping back from a project and coming back to it refreshed helps to build solutions and ideas.
I can’t even imagine a scenario where anyone thinks you’re “slacking”! You don’t owe us content, but we enjoy when you take us along. You guys are great. Just be kind to yourself. We’ll still be here 😊
I agree. I’m tired of this sweet, hardworking family getting negative comments. I think they are doing a wonderful job and enjoying their lives in a very productive way. I feel blessed that they willingly share their projects and lives with us, completely honestly too. God bless them and their beautiful children. 🩷
Agree💯
Oh my goodness, you have two great artists in your house! See what happens when you let kids be kids and not stuck in front of a tv or other devices. Amazing little guy!
Don’t worry about viewer response too much! I’ve never been disappointed in your great videos! I look forward to each one! Hang in there! TYTY for sharing! ❤️❤️🙏❤️❤️
Agree with this 100% ❤❤❤❤
Absolutely.
Life isn’t orderly and laid out, everyday is it’s own, taking our time with projects is necessary because we can make mistakes. Be well and safe, enjoy the rain and time together without stress.🥰❤️👏😉
You guys need to go to the beach for a day. All of you been going and going. You need a day to just kick back. Family Fun Day.
Yes - GREAT SUGGESTION! I would definitely like to see them do a “Family Fun Day!”
A roofing contractor would have blown through that in no time. No consideration to all problems you addressed. Your finished job will be better, longer.😊
A good contractor will do a good job. Is it as detailed maybe not. It’s more of an accomplishment doing it yourself.
It will be great when Doug is done. He's done many roofs before.
-raym ... Exactly! Doug's "it will be fine' and 'it's good enough' is far superior to work I paid to be completed by 'professional' contractors. In my opinion Doug's approach re renovating is the best yet.
I was thinking of something to say,and then you said this great 👍
This is going to be an awesome roof!!!!
I NEVER think you are slacking. You are too hard working for that. Just ignore the negativity.
Doug and Ashley, you're doing a great job just remember things always don't work out and I know you got this ❤️🇨🇦😊
Love Mavericks drawing. Those old robots are so cool.
Please don't apologize for things. You don't owe anybody anything. People enjoy you sharing your journey and seeing you and your beautiful family doing things we would never attempt but enjoy, very much, seeing. You all are a blessing to many people. The reason you are all over the place is because you have been blessed with a creative brain and your head is just full of ideas. And you have Ashley to help ground you with her organizational skills. Opposites attack and can make a good team and a job well done. You have the ability to look at a job and see different ways it could be done and most people look at a job and say where do I begin. Thank you for sharing your projects. Most importantly enjoy your projects. ❤
You don't have to prove anything to us, you get done what you can. I'm in no hurry, been a long for the ride for a while now. Florida weather is unpredictable most days, we had some horrific winds and rain yesterday.
Great job Mr Maverick. Love the old robots!!
I don’t care how you do it or don’t do it. I love watching this is a wonderful channel. I love you guys.
Doug, please stop feeling like you have to apologize for taking a rain day or a rest day !! The body and mind need rest in order to heal. The precautions you take to ensure a good job are essential !! I’ve been watching from the beginning… and I’m not going anywhere ❤🎉 😘
Maverick, those are some cool robots! Great job! Thanks Doug and Ashley for the video!❤
First, I can’t imagine anybody complaining about your videos. You are homeowner do it yourselfers! You’re very thorough, always safe and entertaining. Don’t apologize for how you’re doing things, it’s your show. Just keep doing what you’re doing, and I’ll stay along for the ride. I know you’ve probably done this in the past, but I’d like to see a little bit about the family. Where you came from, philosophies on life, etc. I know you’re very conscientious with nutrition. I wonder if you could talk a little bit about that. Meal planning, types of meals you prepare…
And I loved Maverick’s drawing! He is very talented, and creative. Bella is extremely smart.
WOW !! Mavrick ' s robots are so good...what a cool kid...
I love watching your videos. You don't need to apologize for anything. Maverick seems like such a sweet little boy with an ability to draw! Great job, Maverick. ❤
Jumping around is fun.......you're doing amazing work. I enjoy watching whatever you are doing.
Don’t apologize….both of you are ambitious, hard little worker bees!🐝
Do your thing, we are here for the ride. Your show, your time. Do what is right for you. Loved the picture!
3:08 that original roof looks like it has had layers and layers of paint, silicone touch ups, etc. it looks mostly ok, but I think you putting a new roof on top of it is a good idea, for peace of mind…
It looks like your neighbours are fixing up their mobile home also….
Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Love the robots!
Doug and Ashley I am always amazed how you get so much done. Your followers understand there are times when you are not able to film not to worry. I am like Doug I am all over the place and my husband is organized. Maverick your Robots are amazing and all lined up they look like they are moving.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Stop apologizing, you are amazing and the hardest working family I have ever seen.Take care,you are doing a great job
Amen to that!
You needed a break from the roof. Whatever you do is great! Show us in any order that works for you. ❤❤
Try not to apologize when you can’t get things going due to the weather. People shouldn’t criticize what you do or don’t do. There isn’t anything we’ve seen that you can’t conquer. We’ve learned lots by watching you and Ashley work through things. Keep up the great work, we are totally enjoying all that you’re working on. 😊
No need for apologies. Your projects your time. Keep. Doing. You. 🌻🌵🎶🔨
I discovered CZcams a few years ago and it is now a great source of entertainment for me. I like DIYfferent more than any other channel I watch. Doug really impresses me with his problem solving skills and I know what an asset that can be. I think I can relate to you guys, because I also like to give new life, to old, neglected and sometimes unwanted things. The channel showcases Dougs abilities, but as he is always quick to remind us, Ashley is working hard behind the scene. Ya'll make a great team! In short, I think you guys are GREAT and don't want you to get discouraged or feel you are letting your veiwers down. I know Doug is struggling with the roofing project, and all of the unexpected things that keep popping up. My advice to Doug, rethink the whole project and do it in a way that you will be happy with.
You’re looking very Sophia Loren today, Ashley! ❤
I have to tell you, Doug and Ashley, when I get all my notifications come up of all my CZcams channels, if yours is there, yours is the first one I watch. I appreciate how real your content is. I don’t mind supporting a CZcams channel that has interesting and relateable content.
Wow, that is awesome, thank you :)
Doug you will get it figured out.
Love the shades and bangs! Ashley is reminding me of Audrey Hepburn!
Doug and Ashley I am very grateful that you show your process. So many just rush through and then wonder why there are problems.
Loving Mavericks Robots👏
Keep up the great work (in your own time) and taking us mainstream tv boycotters with you😁
Amazing robot drawings!!
You’re in no way slackers, you’re an inspiration!
Doug and Ashley family 1st. The roof will be there tomorrow and the day after. Your not slack in any way. By young man, nice drawing.🎉 God bless you guys 🦋🐈🍓🤗
Doug and Ashley, you accomplish a great deal!!! Keep it up and take breaks!!! 🥰❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🏡
My wife and I have really enjoyed your videos. We have learned a lot. You are a great family 😊.
Wow your son has artistic talent. Good job on the robots!
No matter what you do in your videos I love to watch. Great job on the picture, so cool.
That picture took a Lot of patience for such a little fella. Good job Maverick.
Fantastic drawing Maverick! Great imagination. Love it. Blessings.
Don't feel bad guys just happy to see you, regardless of what your doing.
Thank you for all you do! Don’t be upset about what you don’t get done! Doug it’s fine! Yes Ashley! Great job Maverick!
I have never once thought you were slacking because 'no video'. I do appreciate an update so I don't worry because of the absurd weather that hits Florida regularly. I don't know where in the state you are, but the whole state seems to suffer more than the rest of us.
Everything looks so good! Progress is being made, including the puzzle!
Reality and hard work...keep going and remain proud of what you have built.
Please! You do you! The people who follow you and watch your channel do so because you are you. Adding in other projects is very interesting, in my opinion. The roof of the 40 year old mobile home, not going to be perfect. It's a mobile home! It hasn't ever been perfect. Lol! Love that you're real! Always have.
Love the robot picture
Great job, Maverick !
Doug, you do not slack... ever. Don't worry about others thinking otherwise. You help me think in a trouble shooting kinda way on different projects I have going on. Maverik, that picture is amazing!! WOWZER!! Good job!!!
I enjoy you showing your everyday life, I don't mind the jumping around, it's real life.
Awesome art
I loved Ashleys's it looks fine! But, the dedication to the roof looking and being right is amazing! Thanks for the video!! Some people won't understand why you won't just slap stuff up. I grew up if you do any job, you do it once and right since you are spending hard earned money and energy! Never half anything!!!
Mavericks art work is fantastic fir a child his age..he should be proud if his abilities 😘
That was a smart thing for you to do, we have been in the business for 40 years and I can tell that you are very particular about your work. And your wife is an excellent helper as well. You two should be very proud.
No need to explain it. It's your house and your trailer! I'm just glad I can watch it!
There is a lot of talent of various kinds that run through your whole family. Wonderful. Adventure on!!
Keep going with the Fresh Prince Doug! 😅
So many people don’t understand the amount of work that goes into making these videos, let alone the work in them... You all just keep doing what you are doing and we will keep following along!
Loved the old robots… and the old shaky hands 😂
We hope you have a great weekend! 🌲
Ashley with her pony tail and sunglasses looks like she should be riding a Vespa instead of sitting on a roof. 😂 Now I’m gonna go watch Roman Holiday.
Starting with a random piece of a puzzle is madness 😅 I could even imagine! You two crack me up and amaze me everyday ❤️
you son is super talented. those robots have so much character in such a simple drawing
Your videos are always interesting🥰🇨🇦
Both of your kids are such talented artists. I have trouble drawing stick figures.
As an artist myself, that is a very good, very detailed picture of robots that Maverick drew! Please let him know that a person in the comments said "Great job!"👏 ❤ Btw. He's got a very good imagination.
Sorry for all the trouble you're having but you guys are very good at what you're doing! Don't worry, I'm sure everyone would agree that it will be beautiful when it's done.
Take care!
Bye kids! 👋😊
Don’t let it get you down. Easier said than done, I know. Just do what you can. Your work is always good, so just think of it that way. ❤
I love Mavericks drawing
I wish ppl we're as considerate as you otherwise our mobile home wouldn't need some work. We have done many repairs thanks to you Doug and Ashley.
It's not a problem when you take some time to relax and do something like that puzzle. There's more to life than diy.
It is so refreshing to see a family that is so caring and loving to each other. To watch everything you do and never let anything stop you, is a blessing to behold in this time when so many people feel so entitled ...God bless your entire family and never change.. Your children are precious and so respectful... great parents.
I'm glad you had a rainy day, forced to ease off, you looked so tired and that's when accidents can happen.
You’re a family of talented people! Great art Maverick!!
I’m interested in seeing your family’s cooking and eating habits. Who does the cooking? What kinds of food does your family eat? Do you grill?(gas or charcoal?) Do you eat meat? How often do you get takeout? McDonalds? Chinese food?
I’d bet I’m not the only one that would like to know. 😊
So they made " renovation pudding" one time and it's a super healthy chocolate desert worthy of the finest Michelin starred restaurants -I think that was maybe two years ago? Before Florida I think? It is very popular anywhere I take it and the portions can be small as it is very rich, and I love teasing people to guess what the three ingredients are ! Hopefully Doug or Ashley will see this comment and can provide a link to the video!
Yes - I am curious about these aspects too. A good while ago Doug showed us a grill that they had purchased and told us that they would like to build a cooking/grilling gazebo outside. One time, Doug accidentally showed us a pot with meatballs and sauce in it. Otherwise, they don’t seem to want to share any details about their eating habits - and that’s perfectly fine and their choice. I would bet money that they never - ever go to any fast food establishments.
Dear Family cut yourself some slack. Life works that way. There are ups and downs and roundy rounds. Even though you may not meet your goal for the day, you are still moving forward. That's what counts. You are such a sweet family. I wish you the best.
I am sooooo glad you guys are NOT roofers! I have my doubts that a roofer would have made such an effort to get the job right and iron out the bumps, not because they wouldn't care but because time is money and a 'good enough for warranty purposes' job is what is included in the time they work! Maverick and Belle both have great imaginations and I love that they get are comfortable sharing their efforts with us! Thanks as always xx
Maverick has a good mind. His old robots is very nice and creative. And as for your videos, I just watch and enjoy whatever it is that you show us with out any complaints. Your videos, your choice of what and how and when you show us.
Wow people think you slack???!!!! Gosh I need to have a few words with those folks! Who would expect y'all to work in the rain on a roof!
Gosh that art work needs to be on the wall! Mav is SOOOO talented!
There is so much to do and consider when you are doing this roofing. Remember careful and steady is best.
Puzzle time is good for the mind. The puzzle will be amazing when it’s finished. Relaxing is just as important as working.
What a great chat, thanks for inviting us in. I’m more like Ashley, I’m a planner too. Thanks for continuing to allow us to see your journey.
Hi Maverick ❤ Wow, I see another great artist in the family, good job Maverick.
As always be well, be blessed❤
One thing about roofing, if it is raining, you can't work on the roof. If it isn't raining, you don't need to work on the roof. As always you are doing a great job on the roof and doing it the right way.
I like your puzzle. Life and renovation is kind of like a puzzle, too. Keep at it. Take it piece by piece.
Love Maverick’s drawing! A very talented family you have there!
Take your time, all is coming fine 😊
Bye Maverick nice drawing of robots👍👋🙏
Personally I don’t care when you have a video come out I will enjoy them when they do.😁😁👍👍
I don't know how anyone could or would think you guys were slacking. As i've said before, I love your attention to detail and your attitude of if anything is worth doing it's worth doing right. Enjoy the rainy days! Excellent Mr. M. Excellent! 😊
it's the old roof that is the problem not you guys - always impressed at how much care and work you both put into your projects - love you guys❤
Wow! That is some awesome artwork! ❤
I don't find it confusing when you stop one project and start another. It's real life, you have to wait on supplies and the weather sometimes.
stop worrying about everyone else. this is YOUR life we are just lucky that you are sharing it with us . ENJOY YOURSELVES that's what matters
You are doing an amazing job. Every video you post is a gift!! Thanks so much!!
Great job guys! It stormed like crazy! Makes for a great rest day! Don’t let people stress you out, you have so many people who love y’all!
Hi Doug and Ashley - I watch anything that you post. From my personal perspective - watching many CZcams channels - I actually like those that “jump around” and show a variety of projects. I watch car channels that jump into house renovation projects and vice versa. It never confuses me to watch “jumps” from one project to the next. In fact, I find that format more interesting. I would love to see what you are doing with the kitchen in your main house. I was also wondering if your bathroom vanity arrived. I also live in Florida and the rainy season is approaching - so undoubtedly there will be more weather delays. Anyway, you obviously choose what to share with us and show us, and I will continue to watch. Good luck and take care.
Yep, we did get that vanity! Thanks :D
Great picture Maverick ❤
You always make the right decision in the end.
Ashley be looking fly with them shades 😎
Doug sometimes we’re our own worst enemy. You’re not the only one that has self doubt but you guys do things throughly. Keep going, we will be here to support you. ☺️👏🏼💪👍🙏
Don’t be so hard on yourself, you’re doing great!
It's not going to hurt for you to get some rest. Chill sometimes! You're doing fine and it's going to be fine. I'm the SAME way about jumping around. A.D.D. makes me get side tracked big time. I will start something and walk to get something and see something else that needs doing and do that and then thinj, ugh I am suppose to be doing so and so. :P It's ok though.
Doug your not in control of the rain don’t worry about it you and Ashley will get it done. God knows what we need take the rainy day to rest y’all work all the time you need a break.
