I saw a great technique for soaking excessive amounts of dishes on Get It Done With Gabby's RUclips channel. She filled several Rubbermaid totes with soapy water and put the dirty dishes in to soak while she was cleaning the rest of the kitchen.
Funny you mention that. My very first free cleaning, which I actually never put on RUclips because I had so many problems with the filming, that's exactly what I did. I had several totes filled with dishes to soak. Great tip!
Midwest magic cleaning also like to start by cleaning both sides of the sink so he can leave piles of dishes to soak and pretty much just takes intermissions where he’ll come rinse a new load of dishes throughout the entire video!
Nice job! To the homeowners: It’s so hard to be a parent and ask for help. You should be proud you weren’t afraid to ask for help.You’re not alone in struggling with taking care of a house. Sending you a big hug. 😊🐦
I just want to say how amazing this homeowner is to allow you to come into her house. She took a courageous step & I hope your help was a jumping off point for her to feel more in control of things! Also, You must be a very special, caring person to engender this kind of trust. :-)
I love when they let me do laundry. It's my favorite thing to do by far, mostly the folding which I didn't do a lot of here because Mom needed to sort out clothes to donate and such, but it's still fun for me. 😜❤️
One thing I have learned over the years in keeping a clean house is you keep things put away in cub-bards and closets . Throw away all trash and do laundry every day. Make sure all the drawers and doors are closed and things appear tidy and you feel better about yourself. We all need help sometimes so never feel bad about needing help.
I wish you were close to me! What a blessing you are to families who struggle. Keep doing what you are doing. The mental health community appreciates your love and grace!
I'm going to address a few concerns in this pinned comment. Firstly, even though I did in this video, you should NEVER MIX OVEN CLEANER with any other cleaner. I wasn't really thinking anything of it when I did it here because I was just "adding a little extra degreasing power" in my mind and though everything turned out fine (great, actually, as this was the easiest oven cleaning I have ever done), I shouldn't recommend you do it. I haven't found anything specifically regarding mixing oven cleaner and Super Clean, but several articles about just not mixing oven cleaner with anything else. So, I hope that clears that up! Regarding the safety of the children: I promise you, despite the mess you see, they are well taken care of. I spent four days there and witnessed the interaction between mom and kids. She is a very loving and caring mother who is just simply overwhelmed, but obviously loves her children and was very aware of their needs. Please understand that there are other factors here that I won't delve into that add to the stress of parenting, but she handles it all remarkably well given her circumstances. They all just needed a little help to get things back under control. As for the cliffhanger I left about my son and the swallowed bullet...he hasn't "fired" anything out yet. 😂 We took him in for another x-ray on Saturday and it had moved along to the upper GI tract. We will take him in for another x-ray today to see what's happening, make sure it's not getting hung up anywhere. There is a small possibility, if it gets stuck, they will have to do a colonoscopy or surgery to remove it. Praying that doesn't happen, but thankful for doctors and nurses who are able to handle the situation if that does become the situation. He also wants me to make sure everyone knows it was accidental, not on purpose. He is a fidgeter and just have the end of it in his mouth while he was watching something and somehow inhaled wrong or something to where it went into his throat and his gag reflex, rather than making him cough it out, sort of sucked it down instead. Crazy! My sister says he's like Chuck Norris -- he eats bullets for breakfast! Lastly, regarding the 70 hours I am working each week and the concern about that -- that 70 hours (sometimes around 60) INCLUDES the free cleaning I do each week. I'm also including the time I spend editing videos which takes an enormous amount of time, way longer than I ever imagined, but I'm starting to get faster. It also includes my medical transcription job (about 6-8 hours each week), my medical coding job (about 15-25 hours each week), and a couple of paid cleaning jobs that I do each week for some friends. This is all due to losing my medical transcription business (except one doctor) a few months ago because of speech recognition technology. I laid off several employees and had to find something else to do, which is when I started this channel, but also had to take a job doing the coding to make ends meet until I could get this channel to the point where it would sustain itself. So, I know it's temporary, which is a relief because I would burn out really quick if I kept this up. So, THANK YOU EVERYONE for supporting my channel!! It means so much to me! I thrive when I'm helping people and you are making that possible!!❤🧡💛
I dread speech recognition technology! I do transcriptions too, but legal. I doubt that technology is as good as they say. You might get your job back once they realize their mistake. 🤞❤️
I wondered about the wisdom of mixing the oven cleaner and another product. I did find out accidentally that some products can react and cause toxic fumes.
I really enjoy your channel and your raw vulnerability. You are such a generous and courageous person for sharing so much of your thoughts and stories. It gives me hope in a world that is so very ugly lately. 🙏 thank you!
The mom did a great job by calling you. Nobody is perfect as mother and father ,somtime in our life we need some help .it is not good to judge ,because we can be in that situation one day when you need mental health.thank you for helping this family !!
Bonnie, this is the most satisfying, magical video on all of the internet! You did an incredible job! I love watching your channel and especially listening to your voice, it’s so mellow and soothing and kind 💖
About Mom wanting to learn how to clean, I learn a huge amount from shows like yours and Midwest Magic Cleaning. it makes me get up, put it on pause and clean or pick up something and keep watching. There are so many tips and tricks to cleaning and a lot of products I have never heard of or tried before to make it easier so Thank You. Anna In Ohio
The fact that she cleaned the blinds is very encouraging. I hate doing them myself because they can be cumbersome and time consuming. She did a great job. Hopefully she'll get that boost she needs to continue the process..
Right?! Cleaning blinds is not my favorite, so I was so proud that she would tackle something like that and she did a great job! Yes, hopefully that dopamine boost will help her to continue with keeping things up.
@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp I have found the best way to clean blinds is take them down, toss in the bathtub with cleaner and let them soak, best thing is to have the hand wand in the tub too. My sister and I used to clean houses, cottages and construction cleans. It is satisfying to clean especially for someone else - when you walk out when you are done, you don't see the child spill the juice on the just cleaned floor lol! I swear my kids did this every time I cleaned the house
If you watch Aurikattarina she’s in Finland and all the bathrooms have extra drains and shower hoses. I would love the hose but in Australia we have extra drains in our bathrooms and separate toilets!
Magic cleaning sponge, great idea. Should be easy to remove all the baked on stuff.Will be ordering as well as your 3 wire set brushes and tub tile scrub brush. Thank you for all your tips. 😉
No judgment here. It's easy for parents with very young children to get overwhelmed with housekeeping. The best part is that they recognized that they needed help and contacted you. Even better that the mom was asking lots of questions and pitching in with the cleaning. Having a clean, organized home does wonders for good mental health. I'm so happy that they are taking steps to make positive changes. Thank you for making a difference for this family!!! 🥰
U are a beautiful soul and the outreach u do for others in need is soooo amazing!!! With all u have on ur plate of life u are a rare gift to those u touch and a real lovely lady I say thank you for ur wonderfulness!
Never lose faith. Everyone goes through similar things at some point. It gets so overwhelming it feels impossible to conquer. I enjoy these shows. So thank you for letting us in and watch. I have gotten a few needed tips myself
Some people learn by being shown how to do something. Hope she keeps going with it and feels the sense of accomplishment to keep her house nice and clean.
Imagine how wonderful these families feel after their whole house is cleaned and all their clothes are washed. I sure with she could come and clean my house! God bless your sweet heart for helping these people. ❤
I love how the kitchen turned out! It is so cute! I'll bet the homeowner is excited to cook in there again. No judgement. Everyone has hard times and it takes a strong person to ask for help. Blessings to you all!
I’m in love with the beautiful colors of the small appliances too. As far as those comments that are less than kind, I wish you would just block them. You’re doing a wonderful service for people.
I sat in on the MMC live videos too. Yes, I agree - I'd love to see Auri clean an American hoarder house and see how she tackles it. I am also so envious of the European style of drains in the bathroom floor - so much easier to wash all the grime away! I love the cleaning channels that help people for free - so much kindness!! MMC, Auri, Clean with Barbie, and now A Beautiful Mess (just discovered you and subscribed 😉)!!
@@angelagleason413 That's actually me, Barbie, and Mack (from Midwest Magic Cleaning). In fact, I'm sitting in the airport right now waiting to get on my plane to Indianapolis to meet up with them in Illinois. Auri isn't involved in this collab. I guess Mack reached out to her, but I think she is just too big and too busy.
The place looks awesome. I wish this family every success and happiness in the future. My old granny used to say that if you did not have anything nice to say not to say anything at all.She was a wise and kind old woman.
Thank you so much. Right?! I learned that from Bambi and it still applies. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. You would think that would not be so difficult, but it really is for some.😄
I love the color of her appliances also. You did a great job on the kitchen. Kudos to this Mom for getting into the spirit. Blinds are always a challenge. She did a great job. I know this family appreciates the help you gave them.❤
The fact the mom is helping in the process is a great sign. Mental health n financial stress together r hard enough throw in kids n its a disaster. Good for them for realizing they needed help before this got worse, because comparitively its not that bad yet. Wishing the family a better future proud of u for asking for help n putting ur kids ahead of ur pride
It’s easy for people to sit at home behind a screen and judge what they know absolutely nothing about. God bless you for helping these people and god bless them for asking for help.
I love Auri's videos. They do live much differntly than we do. Americans live on complete overload. Too much of everything in every single room and yes our bathrooms should be like over there with a drain in them. So nice!!
Do you always walk around and start by picking up trash? This is a great method I have used in the past (for myself and others). It's surprising how much there can really be. Love your channel.
Yes, usually I start with trash. Sometimes though I start with the thing taking up the most room, which, in this case, was laundry, as you can see! LOL! I just wanted to get that all gathered and started washing since I knew it would take several loads to make a difference. Then after that, I went after the trash.
That looks amazing. It is so overwhelming when things get out of control like that. Looking at it from an objective viewpoint, its easy to make a list and compartmentalize and go okay, 1. Pick up all the clothes and get the laundry started, 2. Start a load of dishes, 3. Pick up all the trash you can find. But when you are living in the middle of it and every surface is covered and nothing has a home, it will make your head spin. Also, some people were just never taught how to clean and its an ongoing process to come into contact with people like you who can offer helpful strategies. This turned out really well and I'll bet they are thrilled.
Bless you for doing this. I had a friend with depression who was not really able to clean his apt. I offered to help, but it needed a deep clean. The next time I visited, he had cleaed it up pretty good with help from his brother. I just remember I cried a little driving home that day feeling sad he had to live like that. I did buy him a new coffee maker so he could enjoy a nice cup. 🙂
Thank you for sharing that. I love hearing these kinds of stories of people helping others. Isn't it just so gratifying and feels so good to help someone else?🥰🙏
I just came across your channel and just need to say what a beautiful person you are. So empathetic, caring and generous. Not a lot of people stop to think about what others are going through that leads to the situation. They don't understand which is fine but many don't bother to try to understand how quickly things can get overwhelming and even though you want to keep things going your brain goes in a different direction and things just shut down and a lot of the time there's literally nothing you can do about it but wait and keep breathing. Will definitely keep watching and liking. Thank you for being you.
Thank you, Beth! I'm learning something new with every homeowner I work with about how trauma and mental illness affect people differently. It's really sad and I think any one of us is very capable of being in a situation like this given the right circumstances. I wasn't always this understanding, but this whole new venture has taught me a lot of compassion for others. People go through some pretty rough things. It sounds like you have some experience with that.🤔 I'm so glad you're here. Thanks for watching!❤️😊
Bless your heart for helping this family❤. I think people get overwhelmed and instead of taking small steps, they give up because they don’t know where to start. I’m so glad that the mom humbled herself to take the first step in asking for your help, that is huge on her part. You are awesome at what you do and always are compassionate and nonjudgmental…that is priceless!
Exactly! It's hard for people to understand when life stressors add to the mental health challenges and it's just too difficult to keep up with it all, so you kind of give up. It's really sad and I think there are A LOT more people out there than we realize who are in this kind of situation. Thanks for your sweet comment!
Großartig Arbeit ! Ich hoffe die Bezahlung für diese Arbeit ist gut ? Weiter so ! Ich schaue mir gerne ihre Arbeit an, das spornt mich wiederum an meine Hausarbeit zu erledigen. 🙂👍
@@BirgitH4711 Danke schön! Der einzige Lohn, den ich dafür bekomme, ist das Geld von RUclips, was im Moment nicht viel ist, aber jeder neue Abonnent hilft! Vielen Dank fürs Zuschauen!
I love how you said it makes you angry... When you get hot, I soooo can I relate!!! I also get hot easily and it's uncomfortable when sweat rolls down your forehead. Etc. And therefore yes, I get angry.😂😊❤
When I was very young, early 1970’s, my siblings and I were watching the old, black and white “Dark Shadows”. Sitting in the dark, watching in one of our rooms. I don’t even remember where I got the bullet, but it was in my mouth. A scary scene took place, I sucked in my breath and down my throat went the bullet. I told my older brother who proceeded to tell me not to eat anything hot, or I’d blow up. A few days later my mother noticed I wasn’t eating, after she asked why, I explained. I was immediately taken to the E.R. where I was taken to get an X-ray. Nothing was found and the Dr said it had probably passed by that time. My father kept better care of his bullets, my brother got a good talking to, I didn’t learn my lesson because less than a year later, I swallowed a thumb tack… never told anyone, I was fine.
There’s good money to be made in cleaning. I think the trick is being trustworthy and respectful of clients privacy. No client wants their home cleaner gossiping about them. And it is a skill ! Not just anyone can clean a house like this. Btw, the outfit, looks sharp !
The homeowners know up front that I will be sharing their story, but that I will keep them anonymous, so no gossiping here. It's part of my objective to help other people understand what living with mental health struggles or physical challenges can look like and to help those who are living in the same type of situation to not feel alone in their struggle.
I grew up in the USA with wooden floors in the bathroom, no drain. Now I live in Australia and we are required to build bathrooms with concrete floors and drains. Not everyone has a hose, sprayer, but they are great when working with disabled and elderly. I think Aurikatariina works mostly in modern apartments.
What an amazing transformation! 🎉 I dealt with uncontrollable depression for several years so I know firsthand just how hard it can be to keep up with everything while struggling with mental illness. So glad you were able to help this family get a fresh start on the cleaning ❤
Oh my goodness! These people definitely need your help! I watch quite a few cleaners and think you are amazing, dealing with the laundry and going through just about everything. I enjoy this type of video where you jump start them back into some sort of order in their lives while respecting their privacy. I had to retire to get caught up myself, lol.
What a beautiful job you did, and homeowner you did a terrific job on those blinds. I hate cleaning my blinds so bad, but you did a wonderful job, my dear
Great job. The products I wanted and need to buy are not available. I will keep trying. Thank the home owner for sharing and it really is a cute kitchen.
Totally awesome, Bonnie! I have a request: would you please show us the clean dishes put away in the cupboard and the silverware in the drawer at the end? Would appreciate it. 🙂
Haha! I wish I could have. I actually didn't put them away as I ran out of time that day, so Mom put them away and I am not even sure where she put them all. I wish I could have gone through and organized all the cupboards because I know they needed that. I may end up going back in the future just to check on things and to help where I can. I will try to show that in future videos though!!
First tip. Put the garbage in the garbage can and then take out the garbage when it’s full to the curb or the dumpster just so it’s out of the house. Keep up with the laundry, wash, dry, fold AND put away. Keep up with the dishes . These things give you the best bang for the buck. This is the reason why I have very few small appliances and I don’t have a toaster oven, nope 👎 because I don’t want to clean them. I also don’t have any blinds for the same reason. Curtains are much easier. 😊. I also for the shower I do not have any shower doors for the same reason I just use a curtain and then when it gets icky I throw it away so those are my tips for you because I’ve been there and I don’t want to do that anymore. The small appliances that I do have I use them then I want them down and then I put them away in the cabinet or a pantry because if you leave them out on the counter, they’re going to get splattered on by other things that you’re doing and making
I love stumbling across channels like yours. You make such a difference to peoples lives. Really hope i get to watch your channel explode so more people can benefit from this ❤
I hope so too! I have so many ways I want to help other people. Cleaning is just one of them, but I would love to give back monetarily as well, or buy the things they need to keep up with things a little easier.
Wow great job to the mother, thoes blindes are werry nice and clean 😊 You are doing a great job, I think mom and dad just need someone to clean along to get started and some great tips how to clean and keeping the house clean and cludder free ❤ Big hugs from Denmark 💝🌹🥰
You did a fantastic job, and, I know the struggle this hoke owner is feeling. I am struggling with depression myself and trying to pack to move and some days I just want to stay in bed and hide from the entire world. The struggle is definitely real.
Yay! Thank you! I'm still trying different methods and different cleaners to figure out what I like the best, but I have learned a lot in the eight months since I started doing this.😊
You did a fantastic job on that kitchen. If I lived closer I would come and help you. I used to clean but never in that depth. God bless you for what you do for these people who need help. Much love.
I saw a great technique for soaking excessive amounts of dishes on Get It Done With Gabby's RUclips channel. She filled several Rubbermaid totes with soapy water and put the dirty dishes in to soak while she was cleaning the rest of the kitchen.

Dont let others who comment and criticize ur ways of doing things!!! They aren't in front of the camera giving of ur kindness 😊
Well said ! ❤

Thank you! And I'm honored to be named among some of my favorite free cleaners! Thanks so much for being here!
Living with Cambria also does a lot of these type videos.
It is my understanding that Auri is coming to the US and is going to do a collaboration video with Barbie and guy in illinois who also cleans.
@@angelagleason413 That's actually me, Barbie, and Mack (from Midwest Magic Cleaning). In fact, I'm sitting in the airport right now waiting to get on my plane to Indianapolis to meet up with them in Illinois. Auri isn't involved in this collab. I guess Mack reached out to her, but I think she is just too big and too busy.
She is moving to Miami so soon
The place looks awesome. I wish this family every success and happiness in the future. My old granny used to say that if you did not have anything nice to say not to say anything at all.She was a wise and kind old woman.
Thank you so much. Right?! I learned that from Bambi and it still applies. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. You would think that would not be so difficult, but it really is for some.😄
Blinds are a nightmare to clean. Amazing job. X
Thank you!
I loved all her appliances too so cute. Anna In Ohio
I love the color of her appliances also. You did a great job on the kitchen. Kudos to this Mom for getting into the spirit. Blinds are always a challenge. She did a great job. I know this family appreciates the help you gave them.❤
Thank you so much!
I LOVE the cleaning sounds!!!
The fact the mom is helping in the process is a great sign. Mental health n financial stress together r hard enough throw in kids n its a disaster. Good for them for realizing they needed help before this got worse, because comparitively its not that bad yet. Wishing the family a better future proud of u for asking for help n putting ur kids ahead of ur pride
Right?! Thanks for being respectful and understanding. 💕
Bless you! I don't like doing laundry. I would've been overwhelmed by that alone.
It’s easy for people to sit at home behind a screen and judge what they know absolutely nothing about. God bless you for helping these people and god bless them for asking for help.
Thank you! My thoughts exactly!
Stay safe and take care of your health. ❤
I love Auri's videos. They do live much differntly than we do. Americans live on complete overload. Too much of everything in every single room and yes our bathrooms should be like over there with a drain in them. So nice!!
Totally agree about living in complete overload. We have excess of everything! More stuff does not equal more happiness. Instead it makes us slaves.
You made all the kitchen look brand new. Even the oven(s) sparkle. It must have been a lot of hard scrubbing. Keep up the good work.
god bless you for helping these familys love watching you
Thank you!
I have followed Aurikatariina and Mid West Cleaning for ages. I too, love the spray in the bathroom! Such a brilliant idea.
Don't ever feel bad for asking for help people 😊
This s a true magnificent gift for this family. Thank you !
Do you always walk around and start by picking up trash? This is a great method I have used in the past (for myself and others). It's surprising how much there can really be. Love your channel.
Yes, usually I start with trash. Sometimes though I start with the thing taking up the most room, which, in this case, was laundry, as you can see! LOL! I just wanted to get that all gathered and started washing since I knew it would take several loads to make a difference. Then after that, I went after the trash.
It's really nice to see the progress here! Great job 👏😊❤
That looks amazing. It is so overwhelming when things get out of control like that. Looking at it from an objective viewpoint, its easy to make a list and compartmentalize and go okay, 1. Pick up all the clothes and get the laundry started, 2. Start a load of dishes, 3. Pick up all the trash you can find. But when you are living in the middle of it and every surface is covered and nothing has a home, it will make your head spin. Also, some people were just never taught how to clean and its an ongoing process to come into contact with people like you who can offer helpful strategies. This turned out really well and I'll bet they are thrilled.
I couldn't have said it better. Easy to judge if you don't know the background of a person. I love your comment!
Subscribed. I like how you are. Stay kind.
Thank you! And welcome!❤️❤️😊
Bless you for doing this. I had a friend with depression who was not really able to clean his apt. I offered to help, but it needed a deep clean. The next time I visited, he had cleaed it up pretty good with help from his brother. I just remember I cried a little driving home that day feeling sad he had to live like that. I did buy him a new coffee maker so he could enjoy a nice cup. 🙂
Thank you for sharing that. I love hearing these kinds of stories of people helping others. Isn't it just so gratifying and feels so good to help someone else?🥰🙏
@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp yes. Merry Christmas to you. 🌲
I love the original sound. Just like Midwest Magic Cleaning ❤
I just came across your channel and just need to say what a beautiful person you are. So empathetic, caring and generous. Not a lot of people stop to think about what others are going through that leads to the situation. They don't understand which is fine but many don't bother to try to understand how quickly things can get overwhelming and even though you want to keep things going your brain goes in a different direction and things just shut down and a lot of the time there's literally nothing you can do about it but wait and keep breathing. Will definitely keep watching and liking. Thank you for being you.
Thank you, Beth! I'm learning something new with every homeowner I work with about how trauma and mental illness affect people differently. It's really sad and I think any one of us is very capable of being in a situation like this given the right circumstances. I wasn't always this understanding, but this whole new venture has taught me a lot of compassion for others. People go through some pretty rough things. It sounds like you have some experience with that.🤔 I'm so glad you're here. Thanks for watching!❤️😊
Bless your heart for helping this family❤. I think people get overwhelmed and instead of taking small steps, they give up because they don’t know where to start. I’m so glad that the mom humbled herself to take the first step in asking for your help, that is huge on her part. You are awesome at what you do and always are compassionate and nonjudgmental…that is priceless!
Exactly! It's hard for people to understand when life stressors add to the mental health challenges and it's just too difficult to keep up with it all, so you kind of give up. It's really sad and I think there are A LOT more people out there than we realize who are in this kind of situation. Thanks for your sweet comment!
Großartig Arbeit ! Ich hoffe die Bezahlung für diese Arbeit ist gut ? Weiter so ! Ich schaue mir gerne ihre Arbeit an, das spornt mich wiederum an meine Hausarbeit zu erledigen. 🙂👍
@@BirgitH4711 Danke schön! Der einzige Lohn, den ich dafür bekomme, ist das Geld von RUclips, was im Moment nicht viel ist, aber jeder neue Abonnent hilft! Vielen Dank fürs Zuschauen!
I love how you said it makes you angry... When you get hot, I soooo can I relate!!! I also get hot easily and it's uncomfortable when sweat rolls down your forehead. Etc. And therefore yes, I get angry.😂😊❤
When I was very young, early 1970’s, my siblings and I were watching the old, black and white “Dark Shadows”. Sitting in the dark, watching in one of our rooms. I don’t even remember where I got the bullet, but it was in my mouth. A scary scene took place, I sucked in my breath and down my throat went the bullet. I told my older brother who proceeded to tell me not to eat anything hot, or I’d blow up. A few days later my mother noticed I wasn’t eating, after she asked why, I explained. I was immediately taken to the E.R. where I was taken to get an X-ray. Nothing was found and the Dr said it had probably passed by that time. My father kept better care of his bullets, my brother got a good talking to, I didn’t learn my lesson because less than a year later, I swallowed a thumb tack… never told anyone, I was fine.
The oven melt off was so satisfying! Lovely kitchen. Exellent job!
Thanks so much! 😊
There’s good money to be made in cleaning. I think the trick is being trustworthy and respectful of clients privacy. No client wants their home cleaner gossiping about them. And it is a skill ! Not just anyone can clean a house like this. Btw, the outfit, looks sharp !
The homeowners know up front that I will be sharing their story, but that I will keep them anonymous, so no gossiping here. It's part of my objective to help other people understand what living with mental health struggles or physical challenges can look like and to help those who are living in the same type of situation to not feel alone in their struggle.
I love the idea of having a drain in the floor in the shower rooms in Finland, genius idea
I grew up in the USA with wooden floors in the bathroom, no drain. Now I live in Australia and we are required to build bathrooms with concrete floors and drains. Not everyone has a hose, sprayer, but they are great when working with disabled and elderly. I think Aurikatariina works mostly in modern apartments.
I love the cleaning videos like this.
I'm so glad!
You’re an angel for helping this family 🙏🏾
What a wonderful gift you give to these families.
What an amazing transformation! 🎉
I dealt with uncontrollable depression for several years so I know firsthand just how hard it can be to keep up with everything while struggling with mental illness. So glad you were able to help this family get a fresh start on the cleaning ❤
Yes, the struggle is real, sadly.
Your boys are awesome ! 🎉
Oh my goodness! These people definitely need your help! I watch quite a few cleaners and think you are amazing, dealing with the laundry and going through just about everything. I enjoy this type of video where you jump start them back into some sort of order in their lives while respecting their privacy. I had to retire to get caught up myself, lol.
Thanks so much for your comment. The struggle is real for some people!
Isn’t that the truth @jessiec1194!
I too had to retire to realize that’s what it would take to get caught up!
What a beautiful job you did, and homeowner you did a terrific job on those blinds. I hate cleaning my blinds so bad, but you did a wonderful job, my dear
Great job! She has some really nice appliances! So good of you to help this family!
I love the cleaning sounds!
Great job. The products I wanted and need to buy are not available. I will keep trying. Thank the home owner for sharing and it really is a cute kitchen.
I'm sorry those aren't available, but I appreciate you trying to use the links! I will pass along the message! Thank you!
I'm with you about the floor drain!!!
As an ADD person I know knowledge of how to do something has to be TAUGHT. Never assume!!! It makes all the difference in doing and coping
Me too!! I love the bathroom drains!!! ❤
What an amazing transformation! I am sure the homeowners were more than thankful, relieved, blessed and even motivated.😊
Bless your heart❤
Totally awesome, Bonnie! I have a request: would you please show us the clean dishes put away in the cupboard and the silverware in the drawer at the end? Would appreciate it. 🙂
Haha! I wish I could have. I actually didn't put them away as I ran out of time that day, so Mom put them away and I am not even sure where she put them all. I wish I could have gone through and organized all the cupboards because I know they needed that. I may end up going back in the future just to check on things and to help where I can. I will try to show that in future videos though!!
Great video, as always, Bonnie.
I hope they can keep it up now that you've given them a great start.
Me too!
I look at this video and see my situation. I got some good help, and continue to have help. Its a battle, folks.
First tip. Put the garbage in the garbage can and then take out the garbage when it’s full to the curb or the dumpster just so it’s out of the house.
Keep up with the laundry, wash, dry, fold AND put away.
Keep up with the dishes .
These things give you the best bang for the buck.
This is the reason why I have very few small appliances and I don’t have a toaster oven, nope 👎 because I don’t want to clean them. I also don’t have any blinds for the same reason. Curtains are much easier. 😊. I also for the shower I do not have any shower doors for the same reason I just use a curtain and then when it gets icky I throw it away so those are my tips for you because I’ve been there and I don’t want to do that anymore.
The small appliances that I do have I use them then I want them down and then I put them away in the cabinet or a pantry because if you leave them out on the counter, they’re going to get splattered on by other things that you’re doing and making
I do great washing drying and folding. It’s putting it away is where I fall down.
Wow!! What an amazing job !!!!! You are such a blessing to so many families!!! I love how you help others!!!
Thank you!
minimalism, adaptive cleaning and routines will help this family big time!!
I love stumbling across channels like yours. You make such a difference to peoples lives. Really hope i get to watch your channel explode so more people can benefit from this ❤
I hope so too! I have so many ways I want to help other people. Cleaning is just one of them, but I would love to give back monetarily as well, or buy the things they need to keep up with things a little easier.
@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp I love that! Looking forward to the collab with mid west magic!
Wow great job to the mother, thoes blindes are werry nice and clean 😊
You are doing a great job, I think mom and dad just need someone to clean along to get started and some great tips how to clean and keeping the house clean and cludder free ❤
Big hugs from Denmark 💝🌹🥰
You did a fantastic job, and, I know the struggle this hoke owner is feeling. I am struggling with depression myself and trying to pack to move and some days I just want to stay in bed and hide from the entire world. The struggle is definitely real.
Yes, sadly this is what depression looks like sometimes. I'm sorry you struggle with it. Hopefully this channel makes you feel not so alone!❤
I love watching your cleaning methods. I am a Cleaner too
Yay! Thank you! I'm still trying different methods and different cleaners to figure out what I like the best, but I have learned a lot in the eight months since I started doing this.😊
You go, girl! Get it!
That looks like soo much better!!! Good job!!!
Thank you!!
That is a huge sorting and cleaning project. My respect. You did a great job. I hope this family go healthy with your help❤
You did a fantastic job on that kitchen. If I lived closer I would come and help you. I used to clean but never in that depth. God bless you for what you do for these people who need help. Much love.
Oh thank you!🙏❤️
