    Remember Billy . Work to live , don't live to work .

      I don't think Billy regards the Convent strictly as "work" on hearing his video, but he needs to address his time allocation for working in the Chateau on some pressing projects from working in the convent, obviously this will mean that he is closer to his family also, both buildings are huge and require a fair amount of upkeep, although the chateau is far more advanced than the convent at present, but I dare say that the work will throw up surprises which might make things a little longer!?!

    As a cancer survivor and dad of a young family I can tell you, you are doing the right thing, I often wondered what time you had left for your kids and the Mrs after so much time at the convent, you have your whole life to get the convent up to scratch but your kids will only be young once my friend, enjoy them and Gwen as much as you can. 👍💪

    Billy, you are 100% right, spend time with the family. Your sons are young now, enjoy that time with them and Gwen.. That's one thing my dad said as he got older, worked a lot, and wished he spent more time with us when we were growing up. The Convent will be there when you get time, bravo!

    You are absolutely doing the right thing. I have 5 kids, and have missed a lot of their childhoods by working. Luckily, Dad was home with them most of their childhoods, but I did miss a lot. Build the relationships with those boys. Show them they're the priority. They may not recognize it now, but they will when they're older. You do you, and we'll come along for the ride! As someone who only discovered your channel fairly recently, and who went back and watched ALL of the convent videos, this will be a nice chance to learn more about the Chateau, which I've not had the chance to go watch the videos from yet.

    Gwen is such a beautiful Mother and Wife. It is so right of you to appreciate her and make her happy. The Boys are only young for so long so they too will be happy to see Daddy more!. The Chateau is so fabulous and you were saying in the past that you wanted to redo the Kitchen in the basement. The Kitchen in the Convent came out gorgeous, so you can make that fabulous as well. The Ladies retreats Gwen is having look wonderful! I wish her much success in that venture. Feeding the soul is necessary for all! Crack on Billy and thanks for sharing 👏

    Billy! I'm certain that I speak for many of your happy followers to learn you're returning to work on your home again!. At 10:53 of this vid, you mentioned that it's only "superficial work" left to do at the chateau?!? I might respectfully point out that, to YOU such tasks may be superficial by your standard, but to your viewers, watching you so skillfully restore each intricate minute detail of that sleeping beauty with such finesse, and to such a professional standard of excellence IS why we tune in to your channel !!
    Anyone can bash a hole in a wall, but there are few who can do what You do SO very well, hence don't be too surprised to discover an up-surge of new subscribers to this channel! 🏰👍👍👍

    1. I found and loved your channel based on the chateau, so looking forward to seeing more of it
    2. Seemed like the channel really flourished when you had a videographer and at least one other person working. Things go by faster when there’s a team working together
    3. Once the chateau is complete. I’d focus on the convent apartments to get a steady cash flow and peace of mind
    4. Thanks for the best daily vids!

  • @jodirauth8847

    You and your family and many trusted craftsman have really worked tireless hours bringing this place back from ruin. The clearing of all the thickets and trees and trash took so much out of all of you and your just starting to see what is actually there under all that over growth. And that's just the outside. The inside is hundreds of years of modifications and changes and you have brought that kitchen to looking like a master piece. I'm looking forward to seeing how you progress inside and outside for this year.

  • @kuyanilakota6571

    You are the fourth vlog I follow that started a second project before finishing their main project. Then they seem to flail around without any real direction where they are going. I realize how hard it must be coming up with content, filming, editing, construction, etc., but to juggle that with real life and additional vlogs or projects doesn't make your product any better. It's like watching a TV series that loses its main character. Some succeed, most don't. Wish you the best.

    Speaking entirely for myself Billy I love watching you bring your vision to improve something with a little character and a bit of history into something really special, if anyone is jealous of that it's THEIR problem, not yours, but I know you'll shine with either project, so satisfy yourself, and you don't owe anyone but Gwen any explanations.

      @ShelleB Před 4 měsíci +1

    I truly wish I could come and help you with the convent. I'm not a professional or anything, and I'm healing from a very extensive surgery to repair my right rotator cuff and bicep that was completely obliterated.
    I pray for you, your family to be close and have great relationships with one another, and for the renovations to be completely finished in all your properties in God's time.
    I think it's amazing you have the understanding to take a sabbatical so to speak, to be with your wife and children. I literally just found your channel today and have been going through the videos as possible. I live in Oklahoma and absolutely adore the architecture of the convent and what you have and you are doing to it in the future.
    If I had the money to get there, my husband, 3 son's and I, I'd love to be of service. But I'm cheering you on from my home in Oklahoma.
    Praying for you Mr. Billy, sir!

    A very wise decision Billy, I missed seeing my children growing up, because I was always working, running 3 businesses, one of which was a shipping company. and never getting home till the kids were in bed. The convent will always be there, with others doing the work.
    I'm sure Gwen will be happy too.

    I hope you will continue filming wherever you are working and/or have the workers film while they work on the convent. We really enjoy your show and look forward to seeing your show every day.

    This is so great to see someone mature enough to self reflect and identify what needs to be done in your life to make yourself and your family happy. That is the most important thing in life. Keep being true to yourself and I can’t wait to see the renovations in the chateau. You’re doing an amazing job 👏

    Family is so important, and it's awesome you recognize this before it's too late. And, sometimes you need a change too. Not to mention this IS your channel, and you have the liberty to do whatever you want. We're here because we choose to be here.....so crack on wherever you want to crack on 😊

    Neat and tidy in the opening as usual.
    Re your “new” plans, that’s just life. Re-evaluating what needs your attention at any particular point is being a responsible adult. Being aware of where your focus must be and responding is exactly what to do. ❤

    I love watching the progress at the Chateau and the Convent. It's nice to mix things up and important to be with family too.

    I prefer the work that you do at home. I like seeing rooms decorated and having family around. I did watch all the convent videos to support the restoration, but I really enjoy seeing a room complete. That is difficult at the convent ❤❤❤❤❤

    Im so glad you're going to be closer to your family. Ive worried that you seem to be working so many hours and your family doesnt see enough of you.

    The convent will still be there in the autumn. Time with the boys and during the spring and summer will be a wonderful time. They need you now.

    I'm quite excited to be seeing the Chateau again!!! But like someone else said here, we watch for you and your team; the projects you work on might change with time but you do a great job! And your artistic vision and work ethic and lovely personalities are definitely worth following. I'm also happy that Gwen is happy. What a lovely feeling for all of you! It's contagious ❤

    Glad to see you looking after your family and home life. Also very relieved this isn't a hard goodbye to the Convent. I'm quite invested to see how that library turns out!

    It makes perfect sense. Every year it is important to sit down and reevaluate your priorities or you just just get stuck. Family always comes first. It will be as nice for us to see more of your family as it will be for you. Lucky you have such a hard working, talented work crew who can see your vision.
