The video captures a day in the life of a farm‑living family as they juggle ordinary chores and a member’s broken‑nose surgery. The conversation opens with a frantic search for a cat bowl, moves through routine farm tasks such as moving a chicken coop, counting eggs, building deck post holes, and managing a large compost pile. Interwoven are updates on the upcoming nasal fracture reduction: discussions about anesthesia, bandage removal, post‑operative dizziness, and the need to protect the newly set nose. Family members provide care, humor, and reassurance, offering food, tea, and hugs while monitoring the patient’s recovery. The vlog blends practical farm management, light‑hearted banter, and the intimate moments of caregiving after a minor surgical procedure.
Chapters
Hopefully getting this aligned today. They're putting me asleep. 10 o'clock. First we gotta find the cat bowl. Winnie runs off with the cat bowl. Is this all you got?
Yeah.
Where's everybody else? Sleepyheads? Punking their shoes. Lily, you took our cat's bowl. I've been looking for it all morning. What were our cats supposed to use?
Regular bowls from the kitchen.
And Amanda found a dog bowl that Winnie doesn't run off with. It's metal. I'm excited for this for sure. Oh, we've warmed up. The giant compost pile is working. What was the sheep's bedding, then the pig's bedding, has now been piled up for compost. All we lack now is some chicken power. What'd I say about coming in on the corner?
You went on the corner.
Oh, touché. Hey, they ate it. Show it. Wave us. Can you move your coop, G-Dog?
What comes after 8?
Uh, 9. 9.
14 eggs.
Nice.
Now that they've moved into the pole barn, I can do them by myself. Yes, that'll be neat because it'll be easier because I can take Beefcake's water to fill it up.
Oh, that's true. You know how to do a quick connect? Nope. Turn that off, which you did. There you go. Buenos días, amigos. How are you? Bien, bien. Yeah. What happened today? We're going to make a hole here. The deck? Yeah, the deck hole for the deck. Oh, nice. The boot. The boot? Oh. Making the holes for the posts. Yeah, the decking posts have got to go down through the roof onto the, the current support.
Papa, every week when I collect the eggs, we will count them and how many eggs I got, well, I'll get all that money.
How much per egg you gonna get?
Dollar.
A dollar an egg? Yeah, it's like grocery store prices. That's $12 a dozen. That's about a fee.
I'll pay for the beef.
Oh, you will? Okay, well, that might make more sense. What's going on?
You see?
Oh my word, it's now that the bandages off. What'd Mom say? She's clear you for swimming?
Not yet, really.
Look at John trying to move Vanilla. Uh-oh, here comes Flossie. John, you better back up. She's not so nice. John, be careful with that one. All right, y'all need to go help him get a staff. Good morning. I'd say we got some hair off Winnie. Here's your Easter basket of eggs, baby. Oh, I like You look nice. Get dressed up for my procedure today.
Oh my gosh.
All right.
Just like I would.
You look nice.
Go to town.
You look nice.
Did you have a hard time getting up at 5:30?
Yeah.
You had a hard time?
Yeah, I did. Really? I didn't get up till 6.
I was up at 8:30.
I know, right?
Wow.
Why were you up at 4:30 in the morning?
Because there was a beeping because the power was out in the alarm—
in the— you know, this, this went off. Before the power came back on.
And the freezer at 3 was beeping.
Yeah.
And it like would beep just enough. It'd be like beep.
Why was it beeping though? The power is back on by then.
Because it was telling me that there was a freezer alarm. Or though that there had been a power outage.
Yeah.
Like I didn't know.
Can't walk and drink at the same time.
Too full.
We're still gonna work on this deck today, Beck. Oh wow, they already cut the hole for the post. What's wrong, William? You don't like your dog food? There's cat food. There's the dog food. Shoot it. Just don't hit me in the nose. Oh, there it goes. Looks like you guys are gonna have fun while I'm gone. How about that? Swimming at 9:30? Well, I'd give you a hug, but you're soaked. You're not wet, huh? Bye-bye, Mr. Henry.
Bye-bye.
Bye-bye. He's giving hugs. Beck, say goodbye to this ruggedly handsome crooked nose.
I'll be glad when it's back straight.
Hopefully they can get it straight.
I think they will.
Hopefully it doesn't hurt too bad when I wake up.
That's my big concern.
Didn't he act like he couldn't get it quite perfect?
I think he was saying that like maybe if you were awake it might be harder to.
What I want you to do is tape me afterwards because I might talk crazy.
I don't expect a real, a real big show.
Well, let's hope for the best. Damn, you sound pretty good. Did they already give me that? Yeah, they did. Oh, okay. They said I wouldn't be worried about nothing. All right. Just visit with the anesthesiologist. This is probably it. Next time you'll see me, I'll probably be more like— we'll see.
So they just took him back. I'm gonna go out here for about 20 minutes, but I have, um, bills to pay for the remodel. I brought a snack with me so I might munch. All right, I got a lot of work done, made a lot of phone calls, and I'm gonna go back inside and wait and wait for them to come get me. Do you want something?
No. No?
Okay.
So do be careful because if you knock it, it's gonna want to pop back out of place.
Oh gosh, yes, be careful. He was like—
No roughhousing.
The other day, yeah, and I was like, stop.
Yeah, you don't want to get a hit. Get headbutted or anything. This is a very small bag. It is.
It's a little small. It's not too bad. No, they did it. It's just right here.
That lady said she liked it. I didn't know she was going to take it. Welcome to my new look. Say goodbye to the flat cap.
That was really fast. We are already going home.
Is it straight? I don't think I'll be so dizzy and tired.
Asking if we had to rebreak it. They didn't have to rebreak it.
They did it on time. I thought I asked you twice.
You asked like 6 times.
Then I asked the doctor.
Well, Austin, you, you put it in there how many times he's asked.
You watch him break it? Do you have to re-break it?
Okay, we're home.
Yay!
Can you walk?
Yeah. Do you got my man bag?
I have it. I'll get it. Straight? Straight. Your nose looks straight.
Just dizzy.
They didn't cut you open?
Nope.
When do you take that off? That's surgery.
She didn't tell them I was in show business.
Stop it.
They all know. Just said, you make any pork rinds? What? Oh.
Do you need the water?
Walker?
No.
Yeah.
All right, hold on, I want to get you changed. Boom, we've got you in the bed.
You've been having to take care of me lately, haven't you? I took care of reactive arthritis, dental surgeries.
It's gonna be all right. Full plate of food. They said not a lot of grease.
I was so hungry, so we ate pork rinds and 25% fat beef. Look at all the grease on there.
I know, right? It's fine. It's gonna be fine. Oh, I also made you tea.
Yay!
You can warm up. He's looking a lot better, aren't you?
I'm already starting to get less dizzy.
Yeah, you're looking a lot better.
Driving the tractor in about 2 hours.
Stop it! You're not driving the tractor. You were under for such a little time. I mean, sure, you have anesthesia in your body still, but I mean, you're not driving the tractor.
I gotta go park it.
No. No, he's not driving the tractor.
You're gonna give me a hug? That makes me feel better. Thank you for taking time out of your busy playful day to give me a hug. Looks like you had fun. I'm doing really well. I just did a bunch of office work in bed and then just got up and at 'em with the domestics. I'm feeling that well that we're putting the chickens up so we can put them on that gigantic compost pile for our gardens tomorrow. See you then.
