It was a lot of fun to do that. I don't know that I'll put so many ornaments and ribbons on it this year, but I'm glad I did it once. I was going for a Christmas-house look - like in a Hallmark movie.

If I use it for Christmas, I just use it as is, with nothing on it. But you could get small, light ornaments and put them on it, sort of like I did when I decorated it for Valentine's Day. Here's the video that shows how it looks. ruclips.net/video/Qc9SUOZffW0/видео.htmlsi=_zL4xmMYixIEiLnY

You’re so welcome! ❤

Sounds like a plan. :-)

Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed it

It's wonderful to see you. How wonderful about your daughter getting married! I appreciate your prayers. There is nothing I can do about the Turkey langague for your other than the directions I've given you before, which should work. You have to go into the language settings in your viewer and choose Turkish. It would be great if RUclips did that automatically!

@@TowardsASimpleLife My dear Rozanne, I have Turkish language support on my computer now. This is great. I think Apple does not support Turkish language on my phone. This means that I will watch you from my computer. I wish good luck to my friend from far away, I hug you with love.

I'm glad you found it and am very happy you enjoyed it! Hope you had a great trip away from home.

❤❤❤

God is everything! :-)

@@TowardsASimpleLife He is. I love that you changed the self affirmations to be about your relationship with Him❤️

I like to use Command strips for this. They are like heavy-duty Velcro. You can get them many places. They are nice because they don't (generally) damage the wall.

This is just a collection of music I've used in varous videos that I enjoy.

Glad you enjoyed it!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'd love to go to Australia some day. It seems like such fun.

Yes, I am sure you would have a lovely visit.

Thanks! I'm glad you like it. It sounds like you know about the book Good Energy. I have it and am trying to work my way through it. I've been making some of the simple changes like going outside first thing in the morning, etc. It's pretty shocking to learn all of that, but when you're my age, you can really see it. Everything is so different than it was when I was a kid. I have to take rest periods. It's the only way I can get anything done. :-)

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing it with us.

I'm so glad it was helpful to you! I appreciate you letting me know.

You are so welcome! So glad you enjoyed it! Texas is a great state. :-)

The video is about spending because it is overspending that creates clutter. That's why the video's name is "Why Clutter Keeps Invading Your Home." The clutter has to come from somewhere. Most time, we buy it. Sometimes, we are given it or inherit it, but usually we bring it in ourselves so we create it. This particularly video isn't about removing clutter; it is about preventing clutter. I have many videos about removing cllutter from your home. The end of this video gives you specific methods of overcoming the spending problems the first part of the video describes. Here is the playlist that contains the decluttering (removing items from your home) videos: ruclips.net/video/cm2Ofqln44M/видео.html I hope that helps!

Flexibility Adaptability Growth Taking inspiration from a curated collection of positive mindsets. then introspectively hearing the messages to comprehend our own interpretation. With a view of an open mind, that as individuals with different perspectives, that to some ppl the source is universe… to other ppl the source is creation through God. Acceptance that we are all different. this is my understanding of what you have conveyed in this RUclips video. As much as I remember my times of depression, like you said the focus needs to be on the times we were functioning well…then lead ourselves back to the wellness. each time we misstep or have bad times. The notion in my head “I remember the times I have been well I can get there again” (each time I recovered a little for a while… I realised as I age it was never going to be that vibrant teenager again, accepting the new pace to slow down in maturity, learning to forgive myself more) is what really kept me going to build myself back up. Along with inspirational talks from yourself and others I have listened to prior to finding your channel. ( over the years positive inspirational people have helped me along inspiring me) 💐Thank you today’s video, it resonates with me on my journey. 🌻thank you for sharing eloquently with caring narrative.🙏

I’m in UT as well. I so enjoy your videos.

What an interesting comment to read. I enjoyed it. Yes, accepting that we are all different is critical! I know what you mean about the age thing... Sometimes, I have to stop myself and say, "Hey - you're almost 67. You're doing great." It's so easy to keep that younger-woman version of yourself in your head and wonder why you can't keep up with her. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

Yay for Utah! I love the mountains so much. We lived outside of the state for quite awhile and I was constantly getting lost. I need to see the mountains to know where I'm going. :-)

Thanks! It was a fun thing to do. I put all of the ribbons as they are in a big bin and I'm hoping it will be easy to figure out what goes where when I start decorating. I loved that particular tree.

I have a lot of battery operated ones, but prefer the plugins!

Sorry to hear that you have these things. They are a challenge for sure. Doing a few things every day sounds like a good plan.

👍👍👍

No, it's that the dishwasher was almost full, but not empty enough for all of the dishes waiting to be cleaned. It wasn't as easy as usual to get it going. (He does dishes for me all the time.) He also wasn't feeling the best that day, but had to get off very early in the morning to go to that training. His solution was to stack the dishes for me, which was better than nothing. :-)

I haven't heard of that one before. I'll have to look it up. Thanks! I appreciate hearing from you.

That's a good idea to do it that way!

It always feels like the kitchen needs the most help in our house. It took me a couple more days to finally get the floor clean, but I did it. :-) It felt like a victory.

My problem is having a house full of people! (I don't really get out that much.) Before I got this o, I had two family members that got really sick with it. I tried to stay away from them, but you know it is when a family member gets sick.... Everyone tries to protect me but sometimes, it just doesn't work out. 😬

@@TowardsASimpleLife Maybe air purifiers? Make an area in your home for when people are sick- this is what we do. The sick person will wear a mask in the rest of the house but not in their area. Also- we ask people to wear masks around us when sick because we know what illness does to CFS. Don’t be afraid to protect yourself. I know people who have become bedbound from viral infections.

Thanks! I still love the sink. It's so much easier to use.

The leaves are starting to turn now. I've got to get my husband to take me up there again in a week or so ago. It's so neat to be so close to it! Seeing Avery in this video makes me feel kind of melancholy.

Thanks! So glad you're here.

I had surgery on my eyes in 2007 or so - monovision - and it was SO wonderful. No glasses. Then I got cataracts and the doctor got the new lenses pretty close - I can drive without glasses - but I don't like that things aren't sharp enough. So I'm back to wearing glasses again. I film a lot without them on because they get a glare on them. That's why you'll see me talking without them and working with them. You ought to go back to where you got your glasses and have them fix them. They can adjust the crookedness out. I always have to have that done. Yes, I have progressive lenses. If they get them right, they are nice but they do take a little bit of getting used to. I have two pairs. One is for regular doing things. One is for reading/playing the piano. They just took that reading part of the prescription and made it bigger and left out the long distance. I can read with my regular pair, but it is harder because the reading spot is small.

It's always nice to have her looking better and smelling good. I think it's time to take her in again because she's starting to blow her coat again and large clumps of hair are all over. She does that twice a year.

Thanks! It's nice to meet someone that knows how I feel. The good news is that I'm over that cold. Now I'm back to dealing with the Fibro, but that's normal. At least, I know what to do. I'm going to try to remember the 30-minute block method more because it really helps me not to overdo it.

They are! It's really something that I feel so close to her when I'm playing the piano with those shelves on either side. It almost gives me goosebumps.

Hope you start feeling better. Isn't it amazing how 30 minute blocks work? My problem is forgetting to do it consistently. I'm trying to get better at remembering, because it is so helpful to me to not let myself overdo it. Crossing my fingers that you can get done what you hope to!

@TowardsASimpleLife I have a record player ... it's actually really convenient because by the time one side is done playing I'm usually ready for a little break. Sometimes I have energy to flip the album over and clean / declutter through another side. 😊

It sounds like we do have a lot in common. It's neat for me to have someone that understands how I feel!

Thanks! I'm finally over my cold, so that's great! Hope you are doing well.

Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. My son recently had to move back home. He sold his home, but even though he got some money for it, the prices of home (and rent) have gotten so high here that he couldn't afford them on his own even though he has a very good job. That's why three of my adult children live with me - they can't afford rent. It's much, much higher than our house payment. It's expensive even to rent a single room in a home! I'm grateful that we have a home large enough for all of them. It's nice to have my son around because he is very considerate of me and occasionally buys us food and things. He's really matured into a nice man. My husband and I are finally over the viruses we had. Yay!

So glad you enjoyed it, Deb! He's almost through the training. He takes his formal road test on Thursday and is studying hard. Praying that he will pass it the first time. His trainers told him that he's doing well. Thanks for the tip about the placemats. I'm going to go to our Dollar Stores and see if I can find some.

You're so welcome! I'm so glad it was helpful to you. It sounds like you have made a big step forward. Ironically, embracing the imperfect and working with your have helps me do better. My cold is over, so not I'm just working with the Fibro flare that always follows one, but I'll get through it and will feel better as I take care of myself. Hope you feel better too!

@@TowardsASimpleLife I'm glad to hear that at least the cold is over. I struggle mostly with feeling foggy, weak and tired all the time. I had pain because vitamin D deficiency and I solved that. Then covid came along and I had pains again but my doctor said I'm fine. Luckily another doctor advised me to try CBD oil and I was taking collagen supplements at that time and now I rarely have pains. 🤞🤞🤞I didn't expect that at all.

@@rodicadraws so glad to hear that you’re doing better. That’s awesome.
