yeah we're getting rash because we got a bug bite I actually brought him to the Urgent Care
the public clinic or Spanish Wells Medical Center woke up and he was kind of swollen it don't take
some way up sometimes up to six weeks to go away okay or that whatever you call it the hospital
here but it's always been like this and we try like we as soon as the Sun starts to set we're in
the boat we shower them he's inside screens are always on I don't like to put like bug spray on
them you know Steve but we do the Skin So Soft we do try yeah we always forget mommy always forgets
foreign Jeremiah is on his fourth day of editing video yep I am now I just clicked render so on
this episode we have three different versions of it so we have the YouTube version we have
the Vimeo version and the server version oh fun yeah so basically what I have to do is I make the
the most content a lot of times Vimeo and server have pretty much the exact same thing sometimes a
little bit different so in this one that is a little bit different so I'll make the longest
this is the server then I'll copy all that I'll make a Vimeo file and then I'll edit that down
and then I'll copy it and put it make a YouTube file and then edit all that down to YouTube and
then I render all three versions and then I upload them to that platform so normally it's like three
three what the crap she's just checking me up we're on the dock in NASA the winds are blowing
and we need Wi-Fi to upload these three videos a lot of YouTube channels upload one a week maybe
two weeks so they're doing between four and eight videos we're doing about 12 videos a month if you
combine all our platforms but we've been super busy trying to get these videos out because we
didn't have service for the last couple days as you can tell it's three o'clock in the afternoon
I'm still in my PJs I just brushed my teeth so they're shiny and clean like mascara on my face
from yesterday it's just it's just one of those days but as soon as you're done we're gonna get
um Dairy Queen there's a Dairy Queen across the street and a dominoes the boy said Domino's last
night and I walked across the street yesterday I was like so happy with the um accommodation of the
grocery store and I'm going to show you today but check out my Provisions I just want to show you
how I did it I'm sorry what was that I tried it I said I tried out of focus you're out of focus I'm
sorry oh oh and I'm moving I'm sorry what was that camera still is possible I still have a question
how do I focus I mean serious you're always giving me crap that's because I'm editing I'm always like
oh that footage is okay because like this oh I'm trying to get you out of focus again whatever
you try being on a bouncing moving boat in the way and hold it still that's exactly what I do
whatever and then when I film you go on and on and on so my my arms are really tired
are you saying I go on and on and on moving on to provisions all right here's our first little area
I packed it full with canned foods and bag foods and then back there there's some wine and stuff
like that every cabinet in our kitchen oh my gosh the kitchen's so dirty let's not even look at that
let's just go back here Jeremiah's Beer Supply right there all the way down I got drinks down
here next to Reese's schoolwork this whole area has become our grocery store you can see like
toiletries snacks more cleaning supplies back there and then in here is my cabinet all of my
specialty flowers and pastas and all this stuff I eat a much different diet than the boys March
of 2020 I started with acid reflux and that was because in October of 2019 I got really really
sick in Grenada and they put me on I think all together it was on eight rounds of antibiotics
and then after that I've had nothing but health problems ever since due to the antibiotic overload
and it started with GERD I changed my diet drastically completely went acid gluten-free
and dairy free since then the gerd I feel like I've healed I have had a relapse here
and there but I've healed it with my diet but now I'm left with shortness of breath
every day they don't know really what's going on a big reason why we stayed in the states for so long
and it's hard for me to leave the states is because it's scary because you have shortness
of breath so you feel like it's something serious but I've been to Cardiology pulmonologist my PCM
functional medicine doctors they really can't find what's going on they did find some nodules
on my lungs we did have some mold outbreak in the boat so maybe it's not even link to the overuse
of antibiotics maybe one doctor has said you know it could be some wool got into your lungs because
one of the nodules look like a fungus and I'm on like a detox drink for that who knows I feel like
it's the overuse of antibiotics has completely destroyed my digestive system which has led to
many many problems maybe a Candida overload in my body it's kind of what I believe I have
drastically changed my diet yet again I am now gluten-free acid free dairy free yeast free I
don't eat anything processed nothing with sugar yeah completely like whole food diet type things
and if you look on my Instagram on lazy gecko's Instagram you see tons of
um like I'll post tons of pictures of different foods that come up with it's super fun so either
way I have my separate drawer over there it is super expensive to supply the food that I
need but I need it now it's just a shortness of breath hoping to cure that but when I go back to
the States I'll probably reach out to some more doctors and see what I can do what are you doing
it's gonna be hard again the police goes with the number oh Reese got this Nintendo switch as
a Christmas gift we opted to not have an Xbox or a PlayStation because they often need Wi-Fi to do
their little uploads and stuff the switch has been great with some hard copy games because you don't
need Wi-Fi and he is now set up his little game station so this is his second day of playing video
games he's not really a video gamer but I feel like that has changed he's addicted to this game
we are on the way to the grocery store it's right across the street here's our little
pool the marina it's hooked up to a really nice restaurant we eat there the other night
um literally Steps From the boat a little expensive but really good and trendy and nice
to eat off the boat it's super easy to get to you just kind of walk up the stairs go through here
right across the street you got yourself a Starbucks and the grocery store is also right
there it's hardly ever this convenient we're loving how close the stores are to the marina
it's literally like a hundred steps and you're at the little Plaza we didn't
know when we pulled in but great spot to pull in super easy to top up on phone BT
you or BTC Jeremiah's gonna give me crap for that and super easy to get to the grocery store so
and apparently when you go to the grocery store and do a huge provisioning they'll actually walk
back with you the shopping carts yeah help you put it on your boat and then um bring
the shopping carts back so that makes it nice too yay you excited to get some ice cream yeah
species or chocolate I have no idea if I'm gonna have to pop good this Fresh Market is
located on the north side of Nassau it's pretty unusual to find a store quite so
nice in the islands it was like being back in the States it's a beautiful grocery store
I'm here for the fresh food and that type of stuff but we'll take a look around I am going
to pick up some stuff for spaghetti tonight for the boys I have spaghetti on the boat for
them but I don't want to use what I have since it's hard to provision the boat so I'll pick up
spaghetti here to make and then I don't have to use what I have on the boat already
we're all together I stay about 15 to 16 to make a simple spaghetti dish for the boys tonight
in other mistakes into comparison for myself I'll make like a vegetable pasta dish from
my pasta and a dressing that I made myself at home
so I stick within the gluten dairy yeast and acid-free diet all right we're ready [Music]
I was wrong it was actually thirty dollars how much ground beef did I get pound and a half
okay yeah so I was wrong I got a lot more beef gentlemen checking me out at the checkout line
bagging up the groceries asked about the blog and he said he became a subscriber I don't know where
he went though so do you want to be on camera I forgot my bag so he went to find me a box
oh there he is very cool so I picked up a subscriber coming into the grocery store what
is your name Louie nice to meet you nice to meet you as well he subscribed to the
YouTube channel he just looked it up as I was standing here so welcome thank you for the Box
awesome he'll be on a video you too bye I love to meet local people especially the
ones that make you feel welcome the people here seem to love the blog thing vlogging
let's see if we can find the boys it was really nice of Louie to get me a box
I figured I could buy a bag I forgot a bag
figured I could buy a bag but I found me a box
what'd you guys end up getting oh my gosh it looks what I can't eat that yeah well you said the
peanut butter batch right no because your peanut butter is gonna have a menu peanut butter parfait
I picked up a subscriber I was filming in there and he's like I
want to be on the video and he pulled up our Channel and subscribed that's funny
that's funny yeah I introduced him on the video and everything Louie
I'll have a bite yeah it's all for you oh my gosh look at that sucker oh good are you done I can't
really eat it all right check it okay honey okay chocolate and ice cream are my absolute weakness
how's that spaghetti dinner good good you help me out with that garlic bread didn't you pretty
easy right yeah so honey yes your spaghetti dinner was about approximately 16 dollars
it's really good bargain yeah so what I do is I use brown rice pasta and then I cut up what other
vegetables I have I tend to like asparagus onions tomatoes and I put some peppers in there and then
I roast those in convection oven for 20 minutes all together make it super simple then I have a
homemade dressing that I make pretty cool and that's how I eat my dinner somebody's a little
bit grumpy because of the Wi-Fi situation I'm like what is your problem he's just been grumpy like a
barking Bulldog no you're not barking at all he's like a old bulldog that doesn't talk and like so
how's the video going and he's like it failed at 94 so now I understand why he's so grumpy well yes
yeah whatever how do you think I feel it was all my data yeah so tell me it failed at 94 all that
data is lost now you have to redo it yeah now it's uploading again it's at 32 percent
this is the windy application this is okay to use I've had it fail a man many times as far as
the prediction but if I'm you know it's not that big of a deal it's not a big passes or something
like that I use it and you can see it's yellow so it's like 20 25 knots something like that
and you can hit play and you can watch it play out it's going to get windier here but
we are hunkered down in a marina because the winds outside are freaking blowing
you see like this is in the marina you see here let's even get a good deal these are the waters
in the marina which usually it's very calm under the boat all right I'm gonna go out I have to
check the docks all the time because these are not floating docks these are we move on these
docks so you got to make sure that your boat's not getting jammed against the dock the wind should
be coming from the East the whole time so we have several lines going forward pretty picky about how
the lines go like they should go for the plate and do a u-turn um sometimes it gets messed up
when we're docking you know you had docking so this one right here was just went straight out
which I don't like so I add another line that did a u-turn you can see it complete comes and it goes
forward it takes a lot of the strain off the fleet this super windy system is pushing on through
you get pretty bored while stuck like this but we have so many platforms that we always have
something to do this has happened several times to us Bahamas where the weather just like comes
in it's like this for a week we have a couple options you know you can sit at anchor and our
boat would hold unless you know you have a problem but it should hold just fine the anchor with winds
like this but it's a good opportunity for us to do work and upload videos on that so whenever
something like this is coming in we try to pull into a marina so we can get Wi-Fi we can do a
lot of work because we're not we can't do much you know um you know data is limited on phones
so that's what we do get a little cooped up for a while but it's cool and then the wind should
die today is a Tuesday no Wednesday but we hope to pull off the dock on Sunday and then maybe go
to the Exumas we don't know but I'm looking forward to uh getting off the dock because
we've been here for like we've been here for like four days already so what's on the dinner agenda
tonight dear I'm making turkey chili for myself I'm heating you up leftover spaghetti because
it's like lasting forever I don't know why and Reese is having chicken nuggets nice so tonight
is one of those nights where it's like I'm just trying to use up leftovers my meals are usually
harder to cook so I'll make a big amount of chili for myself and I'll freeze it and then that kind
of gives me like you guys are taken care of and I can focus on a harder meal for myself that'll
last a couple days cooking is something that I love so the extra work doesn't really bother
me this lifestyle gives you the time to make those homemade family meals you just have to
do a little more planning for the supplies but I'm still a little Stir Crazy to get off the dock have
a good time it's about the only thing to do I'm a little bored [Music] coming up on the lazy geckos
