Welcome to The Frey Life daily vlogs! We are Peter & Mary, a married couple in our early 30's, showing the ups and downs of everyday life with #CysticFibrosis, a life-threatening lung disease that Mary was born with. We have an adorable standard poodle, Oliver, and a hairless sphynx cat, Harry. It's our hope that these videos can be an encouragement to to celebrate the little things in life and find joy amidst a world full of hard realities!

I may have forgotten to take one of my meds in the morning...but... that was kinda a good thing!
I have the same issues with prednisone it attacks my body in such a horrible way but it’s unfortunately necessary for me to live so we take the good with the bad and thank God for every day we are given love you guys you truly brighten my day even my not so good days especially you Mary you give me the strength to keep going God bless you all 💜💜💜💜
You look so much better Mary great to see
Excellent news on feeling better Mary. A bit more human is a good thing. Antibiotics can really hot hard sometimes but it's good to find a possible cause - yeah 👍👍
Still feels it a bit but I'm getting through it.
Peter - Great update on Harry
I do all of my shopping at 8 or 9pm. No one wants to shop at those hrs. I also find nasty, rainy days, snow days are also good.
@@meghan2802 I usually do late shopping pickups much quieter and I don't feel rushed - which I absolutely do not like - cold/rain/snow is a definite no go for me
Im not religous but seeing Mary so happy and joyful singing that song made me tear up. Its amazing the joy she can find even when things are harder.
When Mary sings it up lifts me so much. Im glad she finds joy in it. God may have given her cf but he also gave her an awesome voice. Just my 2 cents.
She’s always been that way too as long as I’ve been watching she so optimistic about everyday no matter the circumstances! ♥️
Loved Peter’s giggle after pointing out the cow’s hair and his! So funny!😂🤣😂
When Peter say Huuuuny it's just to much for my heart it's so sweet and adorable ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I had an antibiotic that made me feel so awful, that I dreaded taking it. Hope you are correct! Nice to see a smiling Mary.
Cracked me up ... “those are shorts!”. You two are the best! Hope you are on an upswing now, Mary! ❤️🇨🇦
Mary: “I wonder if this tastes good..”
Me: ..waiting for the Chomp* 🤣
Peter & the cow hair..
Mary & Peter’s shorts..
You two are hoots and I love it!
Sick days for me are hard ( being asthmatic) , can't imagine what it is like for you. I send you good wishes, and are really happy you are feeling better.
So glad to see Mary feeling better today and Peter smiling more because of it! You two are a true inspiration. ❤️
Another thing that is life giving is hearing Mary sing and praising Jesus! So glad you’re feeling better!
So happy to see you feeling better! Your singing, that song and the cows hair, made my day.
Great swan painting! Glad you are feeling better!
I'm so glad you're better! You are making jokes And your smile is back!
Hahaha Mary always assuring that Peter is wearing shorts xD you guys are a riot. Also, thanks for the song!
Wonderful to see you feeling better!!
I love your painting Mary and I am glad your feeling better.
Love seeing the Frey Family! Especially when Mary is feeling well. And I love the swan painting. And Peter’s response was precious. God bless you all.
Love the "those are shorts" at the end. 🤣
I'm so excited you went in a store! I feel the safest at Costco even when it's busy there.
Mary, I’m so happy you felt well enough to do all of those things!
Glad you are feeling better Mary!
I’m glad to see you’re doing so much better!
Oh Mary!! I am sooo happy to see you feeling better! Wahooooo! May God bless you and keep you - as well as Peter, Ollie, and Harry! Prayers for continued health from Southern California!!
My mom picked up some free bricks once. Their still in a pile in our yard 😂
I love seeing you back to a feeling good a vibrant Mary. 🥰
I like the purple cabbage idea! Also one way to know you are feeling BETTER is your creative side comes back! I know! Looking forward to seeing swans in the shop!
so glad you found your joy today!
So happy to see you feeling better today! Plus I love when y’all are in the kitchen!!
Very cool 😎 painting 🖼 Mary!
I love shopping to and grocery shopping my bf not so much I use to go grocery shopping at like 3 am since it was so empty it worked amazing
If it’s the antibiotic maybe you can take it at night and sleep the yuck away if they can’t give you something else.
You should take it an hour before bed, because often laying down right after taking it contributes to nausea.
Yay! So happy to see you’re feeling better!!!! Love you guys! ❤️
Thank you Mary. That song reminds us that we are not alone. Take care.
mary i love when you share your little wins like loading the dishwasher. it makes me feel so good when I don't think i was as productive as I could have been. small wins!! all about not taking those things for granted
MARY IT WAS SO NICE TO SEE YOU FEEL BETTER. LOVE YOU GUYS. JOANNA CALIFORNIA
Mary, you are looking great. So happy you are feeling better. I hope you have been able to get vaccinated. We are all looking forward to spring 😎🙏🏻💗
So glad you are feeling good today! Yay! 😁☀️🌸
I am so happy you had a good day!!
You can always freeze some of your peppers, if you don’t use them fast enough.
I do that... I cut my peppers into slices or dice them, and freeze them in a ziplock or container to use later... saves me crazy amounts of time when I'm not feeling well... but I also LOVE stuffed peppers... precooked rice, hamburger, onions, a little seasoned tomato sauce, and baked ... yum!
I’m so glad you had a good day!
Mary, you can wash your peppers, let them dry then cut them open and slice them into strips. Place them on a tray and pop them in the freezer when frozen take them out and put in freezer bags and put back into the freezer. I did that last summer and am still using them. They freeze perfectly.
Glad your feeling better Mary
hooray for good days!!! Mary, that color looks really good on you!
Sweet Peppers idea! Make stuffed peppers for dinner- chop up the rest to save some in freezer and snack on the rest😋
Hi Mary, Peter, Ollie, and Harry! I've been following you all since I was 18, I'm 26 now and I feel like I've grown with you! So glad you are feeling more human!
So glad you felt better! I took doxy a few years ago for Lyme disease and it was awful. I ended up in the ER from it a few days in. It made my blood pressure drop so low I passed out in the kitchen. Stay well!!
What a lovely sunset. That's perfect with your hand. Peter, it's okay. One slip up isn't going to make it ruined for the whole year! We go to sam's club right before. We use the Scan and Go and they check your phone/receipt yeah and it's easy! No lines and it's much safer! I agree Scan N Go is awesome. We need to get all new food soon and I should make the list while I have an appetite from my meds! You've helped me with making my food freezer friendly and little tips! Thanks! Also all the CF help. 💜 Nobody else has really guided me. Just treated.
So glad you had a good day! You can chop your peppers and freeze them for future use!
You can also pre-chop and freeze peppers! I do that all the time. Glad you were feeling better!
I am so happy and thankful that Mary and Harry are feeling better today 💜💜🐾🐾🙏🏻. # FreyFamStrong💜✨ Kisses for Ollie boy 🐾🐾
Praise God You felt good today and You went for a walk You guys are awesome God Bless
I’m so happy you’ve had this great day. Thank you, Lord.
LOVE Scan & Go. I can't believe everyone doesn't use it.
So glad you had a good day. I pray it continues. God bless. 😀👋💖
Mary is back!! Let the soup fixins begin = )
Mary thank you for reminding me to enjoying the simple things ❤🧡💛
Glad your feeling better Mary. Anytime I'm on antibiotics I feel dreadful xx
I’m so happy your happy and healthy today! I’m praying for you as I always do sweet lady bless you. 🥰💕♥️
PRAISE GOD!! 💕 I'm glad you had a good day Mary :))
Lol, Mary saying she’s gotta chop something makes me think that in another life she would be a surgeon 😂☺️.
Sunset is a end of day blessing till God gives us a beautiful sunrise to start a new day, so walk with him always...
The grocery store Fareway has an hour to have the disabled and elderly to shop
I have a delicious recipe for stuffed bell peppers you may want to try Mary. You start with a lb of turkey sausage ( Jimmy Dean is what I use ) cooked and crumbled with small diced onion. Add a box of couscous and cooked per recipe with chicken stock for the liquid. Add a large diced tomato. Cook until couscous is done. Slice pepper in two. Place in bake dish. Stuff. Add a small amount of water to bottom.Bake at 350 covered with foil for 35 min. Last ten min, place a slice of havarti cheese on top and finish baking without foil. It's so yummy.
Maybe you have more mucus because the antibiotics are working, and whatever is in there is working its way out? Just a thought. Also, I realize I'm preaching to the choir here, but if you're going to do your shopping right before close, please be kind to the employees. They've worked a full shift and really want to go home by then.
give yourself grace peter! xoxoxox
Hi Frey life really glad you are feeling better I always buy my vegs in bulk and freeze straight away even sweet Bell peppers. They always defrost really well.
Self Checkout in SAM’S = life changing!!! 😁😁 AND Cut your peppers in half and put cream cheese on it with “Everything but the Bagel seasoning!” ALSO life changing!! Haha😆
I have very similar issues with just about every single antibiotic I'm not allergic to. It is so difficult to know that the meds you need to help you get well are adding horrible horrible symptoms to the ones you already have. I am praying that your bad days ARE from the meds and that soon you'll have many more "human" days.
Mary I have had a migraine today. Cant get comfortable no matter what I do and been fighting nausea. Couldn't help but think of you . Hope you continue feeling better. God bless you and Peter.
So sorry to hear that friend! We are praying for you! You got this friend! 💜💜💜
Bahahaha! I thought that cheese shredder was a purse for a second.
I have to start taking pancreatic enzymes to help with my digestion and I immediately thought of you Mary.
Mary, I just rinse off extra peppers and pop in the freezer whole. They last a long time!!
You can chop the peppers and put them in freezer bags and freeze them until you need them. Because we get paid monthly I tend to do a big online grocery order where I stock up items I can prep and freeze in portions for future meals. You can freeze milk (just pour out about a half cup into any carton or bottle you already have in the refrigerator because it will prevent the bottle being frozen from breaking open as it freezes), cheese, bread, vegetables , butter, flours, nuts, and of course meats. That way we only need to pick up items that can’t be frozen or we ran out of and need for a recipe. We have a deep freezer that we try to keep stocked just incase we can’t go out to the store. I tend to keep the vegetables in the refrigerator freezer and everything else goes into the deep freezer. When possible we have done our shopping late at night to avoid people. I am immune compromised due to my cancer treatments that still affect my body a year out from the last one. I also have diabetes, asthma and severe allergies as well as other health issues that affect many aspects of my daily life which includes multiple spinal cord injuries that affect my ability to stand or walk more than 10-15 minutes and only short distances. So depending on what we are doing I might use a rolling walker or my electric wheelchair. Usually I shop online and my husband picks it up. Glad to hear that you are feeling better.
Made it through my dentist appointment! 😇🙌🙌 God is good!!!
Yay!! That is awesome Erin! 💜
And I can relate to struggling to get in fruits and veggies when my GI issues are flaring up. I stick to lots of potatoes as well! Also bananas and zucchini normally work ok for me.
Have you tried Brunswick Stew. You can make it with Peter's barbecue meat. Lot's of Veggies
You can dice and freeze peppers..I mix with diced onions and freeze in baggies to use in receipes when I am not in the mood to prep.
I chop or slice and freeze peppers to use in cooking later... they're not good for fresh eating but they work great cooked.
Mary it's so great to see you feeling better and doing all the thing's you love. Pray for me I woke up with a migraine today and that unfortunate nausea. I sent my migraine medication to the pharmacy but it won't be ready until tomorrow. Looks every body's having taco's I made ground beefs ones with refried beans and my favorite pico deilguyo. Thanks for sharing you're day and listening to mine god bless.
I am currently in my first trimester with our rainbow baby and dealing with morning sickness...baked potatoes are one of the few things I can eat right now ;)
So happy to hear and actually see that you are feeling better, Mary! Beautiful song...beautiful words...wonderful truth. Mary: “Those are shorts”. Peter: “You always qualify what I’m wearing in bed” 🤣🤣 You two are so cute!! Blessings Frey family 🤗❤️❤️🙏🏼😘🐕🐱
They are wonderful
Love when Mary laughs like that (at the end of the vlog)! Ok so please let me know who sings the worship song Mary was singing with and the name of the song. It was beautiful! ♥️ So glad Mary is feeling better!!
I chop the extra peppers and freeze them. Not as good for salads but work great to use in cooked dishes
Bell peppers are also super easy to freeze!!
So great to see y'all share your faith on CZcams so many don't it's refreshing God bless just remember God is walking with you through it all hope your day get easier in Jesus name I pray
I love to listen to you sing Mary
I go in the first hour that stores are open and I have had good luck with kroger, sprouts and walmart that way
I’m so glad you’re having a good day! My first thought when y’all were on the deck looking at the sunset with screaming sirens in the background was, “Oh man I hope the cops don’t end up in the back yard again!” 😬😂. Mary, do you ever freeze your peppers? I do and it works for cooking them but not for eating raw.
That beautiful song reminded me of my aunt. She’s in hospice due to congestive heart failure and extensive cancer. We lost my uncle, her husband, Feb. 20th and she went into the hospital 6 days later. Her cancer was diagnosed then. The chorus about being “old and gray and my days numbered... my joy/hope has been in Jesus”, I know is true for her. It is a wonderful thought! *Sorry for taking license with the lyrics.
You can chop and freeze your peppers!!! 🫑 🥶❄️🫑🥶❄️🫑🥶❄️🫑🥶❄️🫑🥶❄️🫑🥶❄️
Antibiotics can be the worse sometimes in their side effects. The cocktail of antibiotics they gave me for my ulcer recently made me so ill it just made things worse and I said I will just ride out the ulcer. Perhaps one day they can come up with something to ease their side effects. Nice to see you having a break from the nauseousness and exhaustion
You can chop and freeze the peppers, too!
I very much resonate with I feel good, I’ve got to chop something.
Yes it worked mary I thought that was so cool I never would of that about that with the sunset
You can also chop the peppers and freeze them.
I was always told it’s actually good for your car to let it go closer to empty sometimes. Not everything but yeah. I can’t remember why though.
I hate when I have to take a medication and it makes me sick. After breast reduction I have to take injections for 7 days plus antibiotics and it had to be in the morning, so from 9 am to 3 pm I was useless, it wasn't debilitating but it was really annoying and I was always afraid I would pass out. I kinda hope it is the medication, because then it will be over really soon (I think the last day is today?) and you will feel better!
The mucus situation reminds me of times before trikafta. Didn't it used to take time for the antibiotics to make a visual change. I pray they work!
Hi hope ur day better xxx
Harry and Ollie are just sooooo cute 😍
I have opposites too, brother and sister yet so different... Loki is THE lap cat, as soon as I sit, he sits too, while Amelia is content to be close by. she does come snuggle, quite intensively so, but that would be like 20 minutes or so, while her brother takes a break. Loki is more like a permanent snuggler. and he is almost 5 kilos, so my legs fall asleep a lot 😂
