we haven't posted here on youtube in nearly a month after years of religiously uploading every single sunday eamon and i typically love to share our struggles and our laughs as we travel the world in our van or renovate this cabin in the woods but we've been struggling to keep up the last few weeks i came down with a mysterious illness which brought me to the hospital not once but twice that's where the story begins today on our way to emerge a few days ago i noticed on the back of Eamon's leg like a red circular kind of bite looking thing and you started feeling really feverish he wasn't sleeping well like cold sweats really hot you were running a fever loss of appetite really tired all the things right yeah we forgot the camera so we're shooting on the shooting the vlog on the phone here yeah okay and you're both coming out no i'm a patient they kicked Bec out and it's busier than we thought it was i'm just sitting in a room a bunch of other people just waiting what kind of outfit did i choose for the hospital so you were seen by cardiologists am i right or who did you see you the last update from eamon is that um they're testing him for lyme's disease i'm sitting in the back of our truck in this hospital parking lot assuming you've done a few few miles kind of smells a bit funny in here oil models range hood extractor fans it's like the big comfy couch back here when i was younger i used to snort spaghetti up my nose and my mouth as we were driving to the hospital we both said to each other there's nothing better in life than knowing that your partner has your back and i know he would just be doing the same for me so that is really special you know oh that's him oh my gosh this woman is the love of my life and you came out i love you so much i love you mom basically um we'll fill you in tomorrow we got home at 5 30 that morning and i immediately switched into full-time nurse mode making sure eamon got his antibiotics every day cooking up healing meals and changing his bed sheets after he'd sweat through them each and every night you know eamonn is really sick when he stays in bed day after day i like true stories i find myself getting the envelope halfway into a normal movie and it's boring why do i even care about that yeah it's in moments like this that you really start to take a look at what's truly important in life our physical health and our mental health are so important which is why i am grateful to introduce you to today's video sponsor betterhelp as it has been for so many of you this past year has been extremely challenging for eamon and i we are dealing with grief the loss of a best friend a lot of changes and things really started to boil up under the surface of our positive happy-go-lucky selves which is why we reached out to betterhelp to help match us with a licensed professional they assess your needs and within 48 hours you start communicating with this therapist you always receive timely and thoughtful messages from them and they want to make sure it's a great match on both ends so for example eamon's first match just wasn't the right fit and it was free for him to change and find the perfect professional

little 12 hour extravaganza in the hospital and i'm very very excited to say but eamonn's vertical y'all how you feeling baby you know you say it every time but you don't appreciate life and health until you get sick so i'm feeling very very blessed very strong very good as it turns out eamonn tested negative for covet and lime so i'm just left here thinking like maybe he wanted a little vacation he wanted me to cater to him i'm just kidding you're really really sick our new theory is that maybe it was some kind of spider bite that got infected i'm sticking to it before we went to the hospital we were really gung-ho on finishing up this kitchen we wanted we want to just wipe our hands clean of it and you might see behind us we have some new shelving like every single time you pull out your tool bag thinking this is going to be a quick 30 minute job it took a few hours but we are very excited by the results and it really completes the entire coffee bar setup today i just quickly want to do two things what is going on here with this foam finish fix for that and then just trim off the corner beads for the drywall and then tomorrow we can start tiling nice task one done well that's the look of a plasterer i'm gonna try and keep this nice and clean mix a little water so it's nice and soupy so i'm going to cut my corner beads ah tim i'm cursing you dude because i know you stole my snips i know it he asked me one time said yo are these mine i said no those are mine they say fit and then nowhere to be seen after that or tim he's not here to defend himself hey tim go look in your tool box you'll see a pair of yellow snips those are yellow buddy don't even start with me these are not even close to the right tool this is just gonna go on real well it's a little runny to be honest this is just dripping all over the floor oh my gosh here goes nothing hey that side went really well manifest this side baby come on come on come on cheers to a job well done kappa for you thank you you're welcome everybody looks good i think we're prepped and ready to tackle tiles tomorrow all right we'll see at the rental shop make sure you get a wet towel when you when you're tiling

i'm talking probiotics eamon's got a bad belly from all the meds so we're heavy on the probiotics aren't we but this is what we're going for like a matte white hexagon i think it's gonna look great beck thinks it's gonna look great bob thinks it's the worst idea ever he thinks it looks like an italian bathroom floor all the tiles oh he hates it he just texted me this morning don't you don't do it oh my gosh that's hilarious well that changes things but i like them so let's give her so every time we do a b-roll scene amy goes yo back grab the camera and then he makes it look like he does all the work so then he makes it look like i'm just doing the work and i'm like yo can you film it so then you said hey grab grab the camera i'm gonna put this table down for a b-roll shot and i said well let me put the table down i had the camera in the air or the head table in the air already okay look we'll get a b-roll shot of this one now one oh there we go eamon was looking for a headband so i found him like my little facial headband that's work what do you think can you see what it says you do you baby do you this table saw sucks what have we done first things first we're hitting a snag with an electrical outlet oh that was good put her up nice okay whoa what are you doing that's that's not how you okay thinly you would hear it with the nope the other oh my god this guy does not know what he's doing so you spread it on with the flat side of the trowel then apply and comb with notch travel then press tile firmly into place even level the tile surface with another time oh my gosh oh my god are you serious dude i'm serious you don't like it tony i love it gino do you love it yeah yeah we like it we picked it put it on instagram and ask everybody else man it's too late essay it's way too late way too late bob it's gonna be all good man don't worry about bob think bob's a 65 year old virgin don't worry about mom yeah yeah but it just works out yeah we just had a big laughing fit that i wanted to share because we've only ever tiled vans so as evan's picking up the tile cutter and we're starting tiles at like 3 30 in the afternoon we thought to ourselves okay well we'll tile today grab tomorrow it'll be a two-day job i think david's feeling better slap it up and squeeze it down i've been sleeping for a week so i got lots of energy but i think we are gonna call it for today we've made it all the way around the window i think it looks good bob i don't know i don't think it looks like an italian bathroom i'm sure some comments will suggest otherwise but for me and back i think we're both stoked oh my god um good morning you might notice i'm a little partnerless that's because my buddy and i have been in a really bad habit since i got sick that we have separate bedrooms when i saw you in the that is spider in there well we found ourselves in a bit of chop this morning a little rougher than we were hoping but still really beautiful to just take your morning spend it away from the phone spend it with your best friend in the chat i haven't been able to enjoy it i'm stressed i'm gonna drop this camera yeah that's true but still good way to start today nice way to start the morning and get our heads right for tile day two alrighty kitchen warriors here we are time to get these little tick tocks off of here look how good it looks and we're back on track we've got eamon outside skillfully cutting the tiles to fit in all of these weird corners then we get the glue up on the wall and then my roll is to come in with a wet sponge clean it all up add these little knick-knack things that stop it from sliding and bob's your uncle that's my daddy how do you enjoy tiling on a scale of one two ten out of ten baby ten out of ten the first major snafu is if you look over here you can see the countertop is really helping us hold the line and holding the tiles up now once we've slipped off the top of the countertop we're starting to cruise down a little bit so we're just going to start to micro adjust the tiles going up and hopefully we can still wiggle the countertop well we've come to another pivotal moment i'm not sure we even showed them how terrible this was looking we didn't really think we could take this down slash didn't want to but you see this trim amy keeps telling me the trim job it's not worth it i think we have to take this down nice are we out and we're out okay all right okay all right all right i'll move this yeah can you help me oh just tip it towards you oh so yeah these are obviously things you learn as a professional carpenter you obviously wouldn't do your hood range until your tile's done so there's no one to blame here but me and me and bob yeah and trump trenton's saying about that and he's he's pretty close to a pro i'm marked again this is hard work really hard work one more walk one more walk let's go baby shout out to charlie from home depot in kingston for getting us the exact number of tiles charlie hi you're the man i got to remind you guys this is not hgtv where we just uh the host leave for a bit and get the tile guy to come in like this is this was a big job this is uh this is everything so it's just us and we're signing off and we love you all and don't forget to call someone you love see you sunday this is what beck really wants to be wearing that's how hot it is in here dude it looks really good the tile yeah you like it this little animal keeps coming and stealing my fresh cherry tomatoes this is why they don't vlog at three in the mornings
