my mom is a night owl and I remember falling asleep most nights to the sound of her working in the kitchen or tidying and it was the most comforting thing in the world.
What a sweet memory!
Awww
So true, I have the same memories…I am also a night owl so I hope my 4 children, now adults have the same memories xx
It’s the reason for weight gain too
Exactly, she having no proper night rest, which led to consequence to her becoming obese.
What a loud purring happy cat
I love your cozy nosey cats. Cats are the same all over the world.
In English we say clothes are ‘pilling’ so the little device is a pill-shaver. I couldn’t live without mine, I love that it makes clothes last longer!
I'm a night owl too even after 73 years. Your cats are so cute.
Bless you from a 68 year old night sheepdog.
My grandmother is 83 and she is still doing night owl routine because she said that at 6 am "I don't know what to do!"
@@barbaraar2184I have a young toddler and so have to get up early with her, but one day when she is a teenager and old enough to go to school on her own I will likely eventually start keeping my natural hours again, which is to stay up till 2 or 3 and sleep till 9 or 10 (I work remotely).
My mom is the same as me. Long after we grew up, when she retired from her job, she drifted back to her night owl ways :)
I'm just a mom of little ones, watching this vlog at midnight 😁 It's so nice and peaceful when everyone else is asleep!
I love all the cat cameos LOL
I was a night owl most of my life no matter how hard I tried, some people are wired that way. Now that I’m in my 30s and worked years of night shifts my body is ready for sleep at 8-9pm! I’m still not sunshine and daisies in the morning but it’s more doable. Also we love Kefir, we usually have a bottle in the fridge! Our friend who lived in Russia for a couple years introduced us.
Does it taste like yogurt? I've always seen it in the store but didn't want to buy it and waste it if I didn't like it.
@@Yesica1993 I would say it’s like the yogurt drinks you can get but with more tartness. The ones with fruit mixed in are definitely a good choice for a first try.
@@Yesica1993it is more sour than yoghurt, not very sweet
I am night owl too, since my teenage years. Had my 3 children in my 30's, and even though they would wake up in middle of night & about 7-8 morning, I couldn't go to sleep at a normal time. Without young kids & hubby underfoot I could get alot more done. Also it was the best time to give the kitchen floor a good cleaning & finish any dishes & pots. It always seems I have to wear myself out, before I can sleep. Now I'm much older, retired & by myself and I'm up later & sleep late in morning, unless I have an appointment.
I, too thought of my late nights as my quiet time & enjoyed them, when my kids were around. Enjoy all your videos & keep them coming. Especially enjoy it when you take us around shopping & the countryside. God Bless!
Bless you all. This is the second video today confirming that some of us are naturally night people and there’s nothing wrong with that. A week ago my closest cousin and friend literally threw me out of her house during a visit claiming all I did was sleep all day and stay up all night (when I’d altered my schedule while I was there to be up by at least 11 or noon and in bed by midnight because she went to bed at 8:30 pm). Then last night my lifelong best friend told me I’m not normal for being up all night and sleeping during the day “because circadian rhythms don’t work like that”. I’ve had this preferred sleep pattern since I was a child and am fed up trying to “fix” it with drugs and treatments. I don’t understand why people think I have a problem if I am attempting to accommodate their schedule.
I love watching your lovely family do daily activities and I love your cats 🐈⬛🐈😍
I've always been a night owl too but go to bed even later than you. Part of what's nice about the night is that because it's not business hours, you're less likely to be bothered and it feels like the time is somehow your more than during the day.
Your kitty purrs so loudly, so sweet. I laughed when you put all the laundry on the other cat though 😅
Totally agree. The peace I'm feeling when it's dark, night, society is sleeping... Can't even describe!
very true! tbh i sleep at like 6-8am usually 😭
Being a night person is so hard because you don't want to wake anyone up but it's the best time to get things done 😂. Such a challenge. Your cats are so cute. Hope the family (including cats and rats) are all well ❤
When my daughters were very little and my husband was traveling for work and rarely home, I used to do all my laundry and housecleaning after they went to bed. I'm a night owl too which worked perfect for me when I was a nurse and worked the night shifts. Now that I'm retired, I mostly relax at night and maybe bake something for the morning and get the coffee maker ready.
I get you I always wait for night time to study or clean or do anything productive. The day time is so nice for sleeping 😂
As a night owl (and cat lover) I can relate a bit to your routine. Research indicates that whether one is a night owl or morning bird is partly due to genetics (heritability). I come from a family of night owls, but unfortunately am the most owly of them all- am probably more of a vampire. Since the bulk of society is based more around 'morning people,' I've always felt ambivalent about being a night person. But it looks like you've put your nights to good use!
Cat time in the middle of the night is the best! 😻
Laughing because here I am watching this about 1 am . My husband is also a morning person and I am a night owl . We have been married for 41 years . My most productive time is between 12-3 am . Especially when my 3 kids were small . I love your content Vika !
I'm literally watching this as I do my nightly chores
Exactly me - a night owl and I accepted it. I like the quietness of the night, I feel better in the evening and I am more creative. My husband is the same. ❤ Love to see you working at night. 😅
Just a quick tip on using the lint remover: try not to use it on delicate clothes, or if you do, be very gentle. Also be careful not to accidentally touch your skin with it. Thanks for the videos…greetings from UK.🌹
I'm a night owl with 2 very small children as well. You are lucky that Tolya is the opposite - my husband is a night owl, too, and sometimes we have a little fight on who has to take care of our smallest one at 6 in the morning 😂.
Hi Victoria - I’m also a night owl but I have insomnia. It started when I was my late husband’s caregiver during the time he was sick from his lung cancer. I had to give him various prescribed meds during the night hours - help him to the washroom - and make sure he didn’t go outside in the cold in his pyjamas. The cancer had affected his mind (like some people who have dementia) and he wanted to go outside in the dark. Though this was several years ago - I still have it plus my brain won’t shut down at normal bedtime. I don’t want to take drugs in case I have to wake up in a hurry. I enjoy your interesting videos as they are about everyday life. Take care. Cheers from 🇨🇦🍁
I bet it is so nice to wake up to a clean house though!!
Oh my, I am also a night owl girl, married to an early bird boy! It is sometimes difficult to have such different rhythms, but we've also found it handy for dividing work between us! The society generally treats night owls as lazy (and this is very stupid), but I have also been a night owl ever since I was little and so was my mum. I did a gene test on 23andMe recently and I felt really validated - it showed that I am genetically as night owl as you can be! So I do not fight with biology, but use it to my advantage and work when others (the non-lazy ones!) are snoring in their beds!
Oh man, my husband is a night owl like me and it makes the mornings with a toddler so excruciating because neither of us want to get up and we both feel exhausted all day ha ha 😭 I do sometimes wish he was an early riser!
We also did that test and we both got the extreme night owl result! 😂
I'm watching this at 00:30 at night 😂 I can relate as a fellow night owl. I'm always staying late to wash and clean after the babies have gone to sleep. That's when I'm most productive too.
Also I love my fabric shaver too! It's saved so many of my clothes and always keeps them looking like new ❤
I'm so happy you have still make your videos your are such a blessing. Thanks for helping me during my depression since I started watching from day one.
Get better!
I just have to hear your voice Victoria and for some reason I get good vibes (I realise life is not always a breeze for you)!
You also reminded me how I was. Night time can be comforting and free. I'm so used to getting up early now. Children change everything!
All the best to your family and you!🌚🌝🌞🛌🏻
Don't feel bad. I've been a night owl my whole life. And, when I worked, I had a day job! I ended up taking naps, but did all my main jobs at home at night. It's very normal for me. I was like that as a teenager also. I'm still like that. You are not alone.😊❤
I discovered Kefir while living in Russia as a student and it's now sold in health food stores across the U.S.! Not exactly the same as the Russian kind... but it comes in a ton of different flavors. Really good stuff! And super healthy for your gut.
My husband and I are both night owls, I've always been one, even as a small girl. He works afternoons/evenings, so we get up around 11 and go to bed between 2 and 3. I work from home so that helps. You're right, getting up earlier doesn't help, there's nothing virtuous about it if you're exhausted.
I am a night owl myself and you perfectly described the way my brain and my body function. Over the years, I’ve been struggling with people around telling me that I have to change my schedule, that I have to make more effort to be active in the morning, that that it’s not a “normal” and healthy biorhythm, etc. Why do some people consider that their “normal” is the only one that is correct and everyone else’s has to be changed?! 🙈😆
PS: I love Kefir and I do not find it that sour as you described it. ☺️
Same!❤
@@barbaraar2184🤗
Me too! 21 and have been like this since I was born (my mum tells me even as a baby I would only fall asleep 2-3am and wake up late). I’ve tried to change it so many times but I’ve finally accepted that this is just the way I naturally am and am always going to be, and there’s nothing wrong with that 😊
Like you I love night time Vika. I love early morning too but night is better. When my husband is sleeping I can switch off from everyday worries and just do whatever I want. Our sons are grown up with their own families so I don't have to rush around in the mornings either. My husband is a man who likes to be on the go all the time. Being married for 45 years can be exhausting sometimes! I am 68 and started work when I was 15. Now is the time for me to do what I want to do so I never clock watch and only go to bed when i am really tired and sometimes that may be around 1am or even 8.30pm. Please continue to enjoy your me time.💕
My husband and I are exactly the same. I stay up really late and he gets up really early. I have always loved having that time to myself!
Hey Vika and family. I always look forward to hearing from you. You and my late mom would have liked each other. She was an Aries who loved homemaking and kids, and a pre-computer era schoolteacher who always stayed up late to do quiet teacher tasks on top of daily dishes and laundry. As a child, I wished she didn't, as an adult, I understand. Glad you have the fellow-night owl cats to keep you company. Love your sofa set! Bright blessings. 💖
me watching this at 1am as part of my night owl routine 😉 i actually found this really reassuring, cos i have an 18 month old daughter and honestly getting up early has been THE hardest thing for me! my husband does it most days and i feel really guilty, but it's genuinely difficult to adjust, it's my natural schedule! i moved to the other side of the world and still ended up in the same schedule 😂
Since I've retired and it's just me now, (kids are grown and flown) I've been indulging my inner night owl. I routinely stay up until at least one am. Because we live in such a 9to5, "getting up early is good and virtuous" world, it was hard not to feel guilty at first. But, I finally realized that the only "clock" I'm on is my own!
I enjoyed watching your quiet "puttering," and your loudly purring kitty.
I know that will be me too once I don’t have to wake up early anymore! :)
Watched this video while washing dishes at 1 am. Very validating. Thank you for keeping me company! 💕💕
It’s nice you have some quiet alone time to do your work around the house❤
Love your cats! When I was a working mom I also did housework at night. Love all your videos. God bless you and your family. 😊
I’m a night owl and my husband is a morning person, as well. With 4 children, night time is the only time I can get anything done 😂! My husband wakes up at 4:30 in the morning and I just cannot do that.
Your newest cat, the light orange one, looks identical to one of my cats.
I always enjoy watching your videos because they are so relatable!
Such a lovely wife & mother. The family is so lucky.
I’ve made Kefir. It’s fermented dairy. You can even make it with water. Great for digestion and tasty with overnight oats. I used to be a night 🦉 owl, but that switched in my forties. Now, I’m up with the birds and I love going to bed.
How do you make it? 😊
I also like the quiet peacefulness of night to myself! No craziness. The only me time I get.
You have inspired me to try kefir. It's available but not that common here in Australia.
Kiefer is really good for you. It balances out your stomach issues and lots of other reasons I drink it everyday🦋
I think everyone in the world knows the 'Oh!' feeling when something falls down the side of the sofa 😂 I love the way you capture the humour of these universal experiences ❤ And I also have four categories of kitchen cloths 😂
Love your personality ❤
Love kefir, it's a permanent item on my grocery list! Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Do they sell those noise machine things there? It's like a fan noise without the air blowing. I don't know if it would help with the neighbors, but I know my friends had them in their kids' rooms. You could not hear any outside noise! They are fantastic. It might also work just outside their door, if they can't get used to it inside the room.
I love kefir! Great for relaxing and helping to sleep.
Super easy to make too. I make a smoothie with kefir, berries, banana, spinich, chia seeds, flax seeds and collagen. Really keeps you full for most of the day.
I'm trying to make it right now but I think my house might be too cold (55°)
Is it similar to buttermilk?
Kefir and buttermilk are both fermented but have different bacteria.
@@heliomaxis interesting. Thanks
I’m with you on that. My mother claims I always had my clock backwards, right from the start. I’m super glad it works for you, it’s important to find a routine that works.
It’s always delightful hearing from you. ❤
Im watching this in the middle of the night...my owling hours. I love Kefir, and I love your orange kitty!
I love your videos it's really great to watch just a regular life. I appreciate your videos, thank you for sharing!
I grew up mixing thick yoghurt (like Greek yoghurt) with water, so when my Canadian town got kefir in the '00s, we were hooked!
Also, my husband and I are the same way. He cannot stay up to midnight without drinking, and I only go to bed before midnight if I am ill, otherwise I am up working, creating, or quietly cleaning
I think people are just naturally morning people or evening people. They say opposites attract. You were not alone you had the cats to help (?) Take care!
💖💖💖love this vlog!!
Hello Victoria from England. I make Kefir from fresh grains and full cream organic milk, and drink it every day. I usually add a little pink Himalayan salt. I love the slightly sour taste and find it good for digestion. Occasionally I buy ready made Kefir in shops and like this too. I live in a rural community in South West England, and we share our Kefir grains when they start to over produce! Thank you for your interesting and authentic videos, I very much enjoy watching them. Best wishes.
I forgot to say that my son lives in Tbilisi also 😊
Always happy to see a video from you. Your cats are so sweet. Shaving fabric balls is so therapeutic. In Australia we call the little balls, pills, and shaving is De- pilling the fabric. One of my favourite home jobs.
Thank you for sharing that time with you. We have kefir sometimes there is a slight fizzy taste. I wish all occupants of apartments were as thoughtful about their neighbours as you as noise pollution is a huge problem. Bless you and family.
Love your videos and you never seem to stop working you need some you time which you can’t looking after your beautiful family take care ❤❤❤
This is so relatable for mothers. ❤
I'm a night 🦉 too! Your videos are so interesting! Thank you for sharing!
My schedule is the worse it has ever been. Ive always been a night owl. When you have kids the night time is your mommy time. Although some nights i let the kids stay up super late if their is no school. Lately i have been styaing up til 3 or 4 am and then try to function the next day caring for my elderly parents and children. My 16 year old dog is suffering from doggy dementia.she starts barking at sundown and continues til almost day light.then she sleeps all day. Its like Alzheimer's in humans. Last night we tried a new medication. I hope it works. I love your vlogs and your little family. I am learning that your husband loves coca cola lol. They should give hi. Some free soda lol. Merry Christmas. Thank you for sharing your life with us. We appreciate all the time you put into the channel. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Conheci seu canal essa semana..sou do 🇧🇷 Brasil..estou amando sua simplicidade. Seus vídeos. Tô vendo desde o primeiro 🤦🏻♀️. Parabéns pelos vídeos. Que seu canal continue crescendo. 🤗
Loved this❤
I have the same fabric shaver and agree that it's the best thing ever! I can make the clothes look like new again
God, I feel this so much. Night time has always been the most comfortable and productive time for me too. Like you mentioned, it's time you have for yourself because everyone else is sleeping and that kinda makes it magical. I can actually concentrate on things instead of worrying about hundred things going on at the same time.
as always it's a pleasure to watch your videos so thank you for sharing all these moments. Your two cats are adorable: we can see they are happy with you. The ginger cat adores you and is probably grateful to have been saved from the street. It's impressive how he seems to have adapted to the house: he doesn't want to go out despite his old life? In any case, congratulations also to your first cat who accepted this companion (it's not always easy).
I'm actually a morning person, but I spent so much time working the night shift that I find I get more done at night. No one calls you and you don't have to deal with a lot of traffic. I love going grocery shopping at 1 in the morning, no crowds. If I'm really restless I've gone for a mile and a half walk in my neighborhood at midnight.
I love shopping at night too for that reason. And I also love writing and working at night because no distractions. Except texts from my mom lol because she is also a night owl
Love the kitties 🥰
Kefir I grew up with. It is a kind of milk. Healthy for kids. Also I add sugar and crisp bread. I like strawberry yoghurt as well. Great to work silent late evening before going to bed. Tidy in a way. I often put the dish into the disher very late.
I am completely the same way as a night owl. No matter how much sleep I get, if I have to wake up early, I will be so tired all day. I gave up trying to be an early bird, too.
As always... Been enjoying your video
Also
I love the orange kitty she is so playful
I’ve always been a mix of night owl and early bird, this video is so calming. Love from Alaska! ❤️
Always a night owl. Loved night shifts at work. We also use kefir! I enjoy the drinks, and my husband buys a sour creamy, thicker version for hummus garnish. We found the farmer cheese you use for syrniki at our local market!
I am also a mix of a natural night owl and a forced early bird. Feel you so hard on this! ❤
Just discovered your channel today and I like it!!!!
awwwww❤❤❤❤kitty.... you could never be a failure. You always do so well and take such good of your children and your husband and friends you even moved in a different country to make a better life for them and yourself ❤
I love kefir! We drink it in Roumania too. It's such a satisfying drink. I really enjoyed this kind of video. Thanks for sharing with us.
Hello Victoria ❤....
Thank you for sharing your life with us 🙏🏻 😊
Night routine 😴
Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦
It's clear there's no such thing as 'feline insomnia'. 🙂
Apparently, before artificial light was common, the terms 'first sleep' and 'second sleep' were well known. Many people would wake up for a few hours in the middle of the night, do a few things, and then go back to sleep again. It was artificial light (and 9-5 jobs) that changed everything.
That is really interesting!
I wonder what kinds of "things" they were doing in the middle of the night in total darkness 😁😁😁
I used to be up late at night as a teenager studying etc. Later on when I had my daughter (a month before my 25 birthday) my sleep pattern drastically changed. As I have aged it worsened to the point where I only sleep for 2/3 hours a night and sometimes not at all.
I have seen Kefir in the grocery store and wondered about it. The section is very small.
My whole family are night owls, we stay up late and don't get up early. It's really hard to change that as I'm naturally more alert at night than in the mornings. But it's not necessarily a bad thing! 1:30am would be too late for me though
Plz try and keep your vloggs going as I really enjoy them so much .. Beautiful family ❤❤❤❤
i love kefir and its very healthy ☺️
Effective routine, similar to what I prefer. Watching you rolling clothes reminds me way back when you first explained that preference to us.
Your cat is so sweet 🥰
Finally! Someone that no defends morning bird routine! I'm 32 and I struggle all my life because definetly I'm a night owl...so, I feel you 😂
I think kefir is becoming more popular in the US, and we can definitely find it in health-food stores. I bet the store-bought kind is less tangy that what you get in your part of the world...but my mom used to make it at home and that was very sour and delicious! It's still one of my favorite late-night snacks when my stomach is a little bit unsettled.
I love 💕 kefir!
I loved seeing your quiet night.
Thanks for the information on Kefir. On how to pronounce it and how it tastes. I've seen it here in Texas USA but was leery. I know now to stay away from it. 😂
I was like you being a night owl when my kids were little. Now that they are teenagers, I like rising early like 3:30 am (in the morning 😜) to get my Bible study and other tasks done before going to work.
Thanks for taking us on your life's journey, big and small.
Oh gosh don’t let Victoria sway you away from kefir! Maybe it’s different in that part of the world but the kefir I’ve had in the US has been delicious, especially the berry flavored ones.
@CarrieJamrogowicz I like regular yogurt but nothing sour. I don't even eat sour cream. I have loads of sensory issues with food. (If it's the wrong color, smell, texture and even look....I'm gonna channel my inner 2 year old self and keep my lips closed. Lol)
@CarrieJamrogowicz we don’t have berry-flavored kefir here but I sometimes mix it with bananas or berries myself☺️
Hey from Ohio ঞ the strawberry and blueberry flavors are both good!
Kefir sounds like what we call buttermilk. It's kind of sour too. I love it.
I used to hate kefir as a child but it's been so long that now I wanna try it again. Thanks for reminding me that it exists!
I also recently moved to a flat with no dishwasher after living with one for 5 years, so my condolences to you there. I, too, miss this lovely machine 😄
We love kefir!! I like to blend it with a banana and some frozen strawberries to make a smoothie for breakfast 😋
I love kefir!! It’s everywhere in the UK now in both drinking and yogurt forms.
I've always admired night owls, and morning people too. As for me, I define me as a bed person...
Sweet little kitty ❤
I LOVE kefir!
