I’m a 63 year old man happily married for 42 years , the reason why I’m commenting is because I really miss my 25 year old daughter ( your energy and independence reminds me of her) she grew up here on the coast of California and is currently working her dream job as the lighting designer for concerts on the east coast. I’m proud of both of you young women proving that you can do anything that you want to if you work hard enough and don’t let Anyone tell you otherwise. Take care,be safe and Merry Christmas. From Nipomo California.

Im 35 and i lost my wife to cancer a few months back. Life for me is lonely... i came across your channel 1 day and the way you talk to the camera and how warm and open you are reminds me a lot of my wife. You are a wonderful person and thanks for sharing your life with us

That old house is lucky to have you, and Rio😊🥰

❤ wow I just recently came across your video. I have to tell you I am proud of you. Showing us that you can do anything you put your mind to. I’m a 62 year old lady taking care of my mom who is 84 yrs old and has dementia. I also have 3 dogs one passed a few months ago so I am down to 3 and I take care of my mom’s 16 year old dog that is also very old. My son lives with us but I feel very alone most of the time especially around the holidays. I got divorced in 2001 and have been alone since. Watching your video and seeing you light that fire made me feel like I can’t even light a simple fire in my back yard fire pit and you used a crystal ball! Wow. lol. You give me such inspiration. I have been wanting to move from Florida to North Carolina so I can have some snow for the holidays and seeing all the snow where you live makes me want it even more. I miss it so much. I also just want to grab my mom my dogs and go but I am afraid. So I am so happy I came across your video! Your house is amazing and your dog is adorable. God bless you and keep you both safe! ❤🎉. Merry Christmas and a very happy new year full of joy and health.

Your enthusiasm is inspiring. Living the dream. You are not alone. We are living vicariously thru you.

I cant wait to see the little library/office, I think its gonna look so cute and cozy. Love watching the process.

i ❤ christmas...its when the Magic happens..Thanks for spreading the Love, it ripples out in the world and touches so many lives..Cheers 2u Lyss 🥂🙏🧡

Damn. That ceiling is a serious work out bravo 👏

5:11 you are eye level with one of my fav books!!! The power of NOW! 😍

It's comming along , love your style and your free spirit . Looking forward to the finished room. Stay safe and have a great day.

Your videos are so magical! And your vibe is so cozy and luxurious; i just love it! and you! You're amazing :) thank you for inspiring me to live my dream life. Love watching the room demo, too!! Can't wait to see what you do with it.

You've done it, Lyss! I haven't picked up a book in a decade, but you inspired me to read Fourth Wing, and now I'm hooked.

Shadow of the Wind is GOOD! It’s on my list of top 10 favorite books!

We are all in this world together yet we are all so alone I wish you the best

You always share your food and drink with us, so nice of you.

I love what you are doing with your channel. Keep it up 👍🏾. Love the try on also.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

This young lady has a special kind of spirit that you don’t see everyday!

You just raised the s’mores game to a whole new level!!!! I have got to try that!!! 🤩

Thank you for sharing with us all that feel alone during this time of year ❤️

For future reference, the brew pub across the street from the bookstore is a good one. You're welcome! 😊

Redo those wooden floors, girlfriend, reading rooms, have a big area rug and wooden floors. Best way to go.

I love your plans for your study! That wall painting was kind of cool in a mysterious way! 😳 Thanks for the luscious s’more! Didn’t break my diet at all! 😂😂

You should make the door a bookshelf into a hidden room 😍. Magical ❤️

If you knock the tips of the popcorn off by just scraping it across the tips and then spray it and let it sit a few minutes, the moisture will make it's way throughout it and it will come off SO much easier. I de-popcorned my whole nouse- such a messy job haha

Your dog looks so happy

Lol@owl good try! In my glove compartment, and car first aid kit, I keep a small metal tin that contains cotton fluff/tinder cord, slivers of wood, lighter, flint starter, waterproof matches and a wire saw. All fits in a Altoids lol Working as a field biologist I learned, the hardway, to be prepared...always. Cannot tell you how often they came in handy!

Oh, how I love the Wyoming winters ! You have been so blessed ! My home town is Bondurant. We found a really cute place that looked over looked Devils Tower. We did not buy that but it was cute. Looks like hit in the Casper area with the rocky bluffs. Please make sure your fires are out when you leave. The wind will start them up again. It happened when we first moved to Wyoming. Look up the Roosevelt Fire 2018. Yes it burned 60,000+ acres ! And 55 of our neighbors homes. I love your videos ! Your attitude is fantastic! You read some history books about Wyoming. I have one I'd love to send you. It's about Pinedale area and the ranches and life there. Have a Merry Christmas

You are the best, you write the most beautiful, and I am not exaggerating, you are an undisputed single star ❤

Okaaaaay but I'm so impressed that you thought of starting a fire with a crystal ball lol! You almost had it!

Wishing you & Rio a very Merry Christmas & Happy 2024 New Year Alyssa you are an inspiration a warrior Am very thankful to be apart of your world Thank you for letting me be your friend Love you

In the area where you live it is a privilege at any time of the year. Enjoy lady of the mountains with Bowie Rio. ❤❤🎉🎉

You have a wonderful home. I love it. I wish I could find an old home without of lot of repairs.Yours is marvleous.

The crystal ball is absolutely amazing and I love you idea about the room !

Thanks for sharing a little bit of your holiday spirit with all of us, Lyss. This video actually cheered me up a little bit.

Wow! A key, and a fortune? That’s awesome.🤩

Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to you and Rio Alyssa! BTW I loved seeing you in the Nomadic Movement's 48 states in 48 days series! It put a big smile on my face!

Looks cold up in those mountains! Stay warm Alyssa and have a very merry Christmas!

Second trip out in my truck shell, I forgot lighter or matches! So I chuckled with you. I did have my Mr Heater Buddy so would start it, make a match with a stick. Finally went into tiny town of Oatman, AZ and got a lighter! Prev. trip to forest near Grand Canyon, I forgot my hairbrush! My hair is as long as yours. I had a good start on dress by end of trip! Love your videos, young lady!

Loving these holiday videos. So vibey. ✨

I love watching your videos. You bring all your best to what ever your doing. Merry Christmas and a safe New Year's to you.

Alyssa, hope you have a great Christmas and happiest New Year!

Just love your energy and just stunningly beautiful 🖤🙏

Study is going to be great addition to the cottage!

Love your videos and the simplicity of them. Your cottage is so adorable. Merry Christmas to you and yours! ❤

Hey, install some copper ceiling panels in that book room to tone the ceiling down. You can even buy styrofoam panels painted to look like different shades of copper real cheap. It will give that room the atmosphere you're looking for. I did my mancave.

Thank you for the lovely vlog! Merry Christmas! ❤️🌲☃️

Beautiful as always! ❄️

Merry Christmas sweet young lady. Praying you have a blessed Christmas Season. Thank you for inviting us in for a visit.
