Hello! New subscriber here! Love this video! Love that you are down to earth and real. Very refreshing 😊 I’ve been decluttering my apartment for a few months now and am just about done. I’ve gotten rid of a lot of stuff and it’s very freeing. It really does make weekly cleaning quicker and easier. I live in a 450 sq ft apartment, so if something doesn’t have a home, it’s out of here. Got so sick of moving things out of the way all the time. I’m hoping to be done with decluttering this weekend! Anyway, love your video and will be watching more!❤😊
Rachel, Don’t be so hard on yourself. We all have situations in our homes to take care of. I am happy that you will be redoing your living room. You are a hardworking woman. Give yourself some grace.❤
I don’t think you’re lazy, you’re in a full time job with odd hours so it drains you,also housework an looking after a family. So you’re entitled to a rest. I clean windows and mirrors with a mix of half white vinegar half water,no streaks. It’s a good money saver. For room freshener,I mix some fabric softener with water,another money saver,and spray the beds,curtains and sofas with that . Makes the house smell lovely. I don’t use candles, melts or air freshener tins as I have COPD. A good thing for keeping your whites white is nappisan . Works a treat. .
Hi Raquel, Great vlog as always 😊you’re a trooper and hardly lazy love! You have so much on your plate is it any wonder you’re buggered. You certainly are NOT lazy. ADHD is a bugger. My son has had it since he was very young. We are still dealing with Dan’s ADHD and spectrum issues. Everyone is different and we deal with it as best we can. I agree, get yourself tested just for,your own knowledge ❤ You and Dell have done so well coming from humble beginnings as you said. You’re getting there….small steps 😉 you have a loving family unit which is testament to you both ❤ Love listening to you also, you make a lot of sense. See you next time love xox
Rachel, I don’t think you are last at all. We all need to take a break every now and then. People shouldn’t be so critical. I find doing things in a routine I can get things done. I am the kind of person who has to put things away in the Sam place or I can’t find it. I don’t know what causes that but I don’t worry about it.😊 You’re doing a great job!
Don’t run yourself down. You go out to work. You do all the housework and I bet the shopping. You are doing a brilliant job Just keep working towards making your home a nicer place and don’t think everybody else’s is home is perfect. 👍💐💐💐 they might have more cupboards than you hide the mess
Like the old saying a woman's work is never doen 😌 don't ever say your lazy your far from it you work and keep your house clean as you probably can your doing your best sweetheart and that's all you can do and your entitled to rest when you feel the need too cleaning will alwayes be there it's never ending you home is gonna look amazing when you feel well enough to get it all doen just take little steps and don't put pressure on yourself take care your the best xxxx
You can use newspaper to clean the windows. Works great and no streaks. Just use it like a cloth with some window cleaner. Tip I learned from How Clean Is Your House? . Love the colour of your dining room!
Hi hun I hope your doing good so looking forward to seeing you again,,,,sweetheart I don't call that lazy I call that self care,,,,and hun who are they to judge anyone on how others function in their homes I think it takes a strong person to open up their homes and mental health I'm here any time you need someone to lean on hun,,,,,lol hun tysm for the funny stories I really needed this today,,,,,,I would miss you way too much if you didn't make your videos,,,,,hun you must be so proud of your daughter she really is doing a great job with her room tell her I said she is doing a fantastic job and I love her room,,,, sweetheart you should be very very proud of how far you and your husband have come sweetie your house is just a building it's you your husband and kids who make it a home and you should be proud of your home
Hi,I totally understand your despair at the sofas, even housework generally. Our last dog went over the 🌈bridge a fair few years ago now but I miss her every single day, however I absolutely don’t miss the dog hair, the muddy mess she’d leave after shaking herself off after a watery walk, she was a Jack Russell and went down any and all holes she came across😂, now though I just find I can’t go back to the mess that comes with every dog,my house has been so much easier to keep on top of. We’ve always had dogs so it’s been an adjustment but every time I’m tempted I just remind myself of the downside of a pet. In your kitchen, would it maybe be possible to have a ‘lean too’ built that went over your kitchen window? Obviously with windows so you can still see the garden, it would be far more cost effective than knocking through, it was something we had done to specifically put the washer,dryer and chest freezer into. It lasted years and only fairly recently got knocked down to have a conservatory built. It just a thought of course. I think our UK homes on the whole are quite small so not much room for all the appliances that are the norm these days. I must say I think you do a great job considering you work full time too! 👍🏻☺️
Thank you. I’m sorry to hear about your doggy. We had three collies a while ago, one went over the rainbow bridge the other had to go to a new home. You’re right about missing them but not missing the mess from them. We are going to be putting covered decking by the back door but a lean to could also work. I shall take a look around and see what we can come up with. Thank you for your suggestions
You are NOT a lazy woman. Working and then coming home to cook and clean???? That’s 2 jobs lol. If you looked back at your home in your first video and compared it to current state of your home, you’d see how much progress you have made! Could you put a shelf above your stove to put the microwave? I’d actually squeeze in 2 shelves. I might even contemplate ‘extending’ your kitchen by putting fridge and microwave in your living room to the left of your big window? Oh! You should get from Amazon the rubber backed, quilted fabric covers for your couches. They get thrown in wash every week or so and your couch will stay cleaner
@@gailots we can’t have a shelf or anything above our cooker, due to housing association regulations. There’s not really the room to have the kitchen bits in the living room plus it’s not practical, we had them in the living room when we first moved in. Your right though we have come a long way
You're working full-time, running a house (where the majority of it seems to fall on you from what I've seen), decorating and running a RUclips channel. If you're lazy, I must be bone idle!
our 18 year old son is the same he lives in his dressing gown hates wearing clothes and will only wear certain items so he does not make much washing but trying to get his dressing gown off him is a challenge lol ! x
You are not lazy,you are real funny.love watching you.

Must agree I have two dogs so I get you I have 2 leather sofas and like you said you just wipe them down it's alot easier.
A picnic rug with the waterproof backing would save your sofa from the dogs muddy paws and you can throw it in the washing machine.
@@annecoyle5811 ooohhh I like that idea I will have a look around when I get home from work thank you
