It would be so cool to hear a podcast episode about hiding clutter or making things that have a most have but make it fit your decor. Like a trash bin or laundry bin or even a plunger haha!
I taught elementary and middle school for total of 35 years. When I watch you, I think of how you would’ve been a great teacher. ❤ You need to have structure, organization, and have to be a planner. Your checklist is exactly one of the things I did even before teaching and it has carried over in my everyday life. You get so much more accomplished when you have that list . 😊
July 2023 I purchased my first home at 65 years old. I am still working on everything I wanted to do. I am a nurse who works full-time and completes 40 hour work week in three days, then I have four days each week off. I honestly thought I would be done With everything by my first year anniversary in mid July. I plan I purchase items to make those plans happen. Then I either run out of steam because I’m tired… Or more commonly I bounce from one project to another without always completing a project. I did pay someone to turn my carport into a sunroom here in Sunny Florida. Which for months was basically a storage area. Still have a couple projects out there, but it’s almost done… And I’m quite proud of it. Spent several weeks back, breaking, digging, flowerbeds out front to enhance my little pink cinderblock house. Currently trying to divide my time between finishing many little projects inside while starting my backyard beautification. So thank you for this podcast. It is very helpful. I’m a big fan of yours and have watched you since you first began. Congrats on the new baby. I look forward to watching him grow as I’m sure we will get glimpses as you’re doing a different projects.
Had to keep rewinding because I was watching & laughing so much at Kinsley and didn’t hear you. Adorable and hysterical, and of course another great video! Planner download would be awesome.
Yes please please please with the project planner! Ideally geared towards kitchen planner:) also this would be really helpful if you taught us how to sketch our own floor plan using the graph paper. Your sketches look so precise and professional and I would love to learn this skill!!!
Yes PLEASE make a project planner!! We are doing a kitchen Reno and did not plan very well, and as good as it is to learn from mistakes, I can tell you that we have done a lot of HARD LEARNING 😂
Yesss!! A project planner would be amazing 🤩 especially since I’m a visual, hand-write person too! I even took notes in my journal.. You’re awesome 👏 Thank you and can’t wait to see baby boy soon. 👼🏼
Excellent vlog. I love when you put in your feedback to the viewers who send you issues. I am a list maker as well and it actually helps as it triggers the next thing on the list which at times is forgotten in the thinking of it all. Kudos and I am so excited for baby to get here. I hope he comes soon so you don't get too uncomfortable! Blessings to you and Romeo and new baby boy! SO sweet.
Yes I would love the project planner! It would be so helpful for me to share it with my hubby so we can make decisions together. You are so good at articulating your thoughts and making your point get across really well. ❤
Poor Kinsley has no room in your lap to sleep right now she kept trying to get comfortable and said to heck with it and went somewhere else, lol. Like your idea for project planner sheet I could use one now!! Happy Labor Day which is coming up soon as you meet your baby boy!! Hugs Debbie
Yes, a download project planner would be very helpful! I inherited the home I live in and it has a lot of love and tender care that needs to be given to it! And I get overwhelmed by looking at it all the rooms that we cleaned out originally to bring my stuff into the house. They’re cluttered again and I need a starting point a small starting point that I can see immediate results with, otherwise I look at it and go. I don’t wanna mess with that. The journals I have tons of Pinterest stuff with ideas that I would like to have happen but I get overwhelmed with that as well.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this episode!!! It was super helpful understanding the process you take to plan a project. I just moved into my first apartment with my husband and there’s so many things to be done it’s a little overwhelming.😅 Your process reminds me of a lady whose entire podcast is about systems, Chelsi Jo. I bet you and her are kindred spirits.😂
It is true that baby boy’s make mamas to be beautiful by their boy ! You look so healthy and just gorgeous MaCenna ! And that little Kinsley is so ready for your son to come ! Its adorable to see how he wants to be on your tummy close by baby ! 🩵
This is exactly how I’m feeling with building a piece of furniture for my entry way!! I’ve built many things (for the first time) before but this will be the most complicated piece I’ve ever built myself. I’ve never built anything with drawers before and I want this piece to be curved. trying to wrap my head around how to do it is taking some time and really leading to me procrastinating
Hey Macenna! I've been watching your show for years now (pre-cottage renovations). I found it really helpful when you talked about failure to launch and steps that helped you out of it! I think the downloadable planner is great idea! Thanks! Also, you are glowing! congrats on the baby boy!
Can you make a Milanote template?! That’s where I like to work and I’d be interesting to see on that platform how to approach versus how I’ve cobbled my approach together!! And yay to baby boy 🎉
I have some unlevel flooring and we didn't know what to do about it until recently when a friend told me you can buy a self leveling floor resurface compound. She got hers from Lowes. I haven't tried it on my floors yet but my friend used it and you can't tell. I love that sketch you made for her kitchen! I have been planning to redo my kitchen table and have been scared to start for awhile. I definitely think I want to try the oven cleaner trick. I'm so nervous!!! So excited for you and Romero as you prepare for new baby, new kitchen!!! All the things! Thank you for inspiring me to tackle projects around my house that otherwise like my table I would still be in failure to launch.😂
Yes please, project planner would be SO helpful, we just bought our first home and the sudden change in owning and being able to do ANYTHING has us doing nothing as it's so overwhelming!
A project planner would be so awesome! I have so much in my head I need to get it on paper. My husband and I bought our house a year ago and I want to change so much. I have 1 wall to remove. The rest will be making changes to flooring, trim, painting, and lighting changes.
One thing that helps if you don't know where to start is make several plans. Like 5 iterations with no intention to actually do them, one if you could demo, one if you were rich, one if there was an additional window, one if this was a cool edgy loft, one for your goth friend, one for your past teenage self: go all over the place, let your imagination go wild. And in the process you're gonna have ideas you'd have never thought of and you see which ones stick with you and thn you can try and adapt those ideas to the reality of your space, your means and your limitations I'd love a downloadable planner, I'm a serial procrastinator myself (ADHD not helping one bit)
MaCenna you would be an amazing project planner between your Mom’s influence helped. I love your podcast thank you for this one, I know you are almost ready to have baby boy and your energy is weaker. Please just rest as much as you can before baby💙💙👶
Guys guys guys!!!!! If you're renting you CAN change anything!!!! The only thing legally you must do is RETURN it to the landlords initial rental specification... Change lights. Hang pictures. Drill holes. Just returning everything To as is !!! YOU live in it. Make it home
Wait are you really not stressed at all?! I would be freaking out. Every time I’ve had a contractor come help me with anything I find it miserably stressful. I wonder how you manage so well. Especially since I think th goal was for them to be done before your due date
was there ever a time when working with your current contractor , that he didn't know that you could do this yourself if you weren't pregnant , or tried to mansplain something to you or treat you like the little lady who thinks she knows what she's talking about ????
A downloadable project planner would great. I’m buying an old small house which I plan to update gradually.

Planner is a great idea. Love your podcasts. 💕 so excited for you on the arrival of baby boy soon.

Kinsley is not comfortable with a smaller/shorter lap!

Thanks for sharing. Great tips
Love a project planner. You look beautiful a Mothers glow.

A downloadable project plan would be great

Would love a planner! It may even take away a small form of procrastination 😬
Lol Kinsley's zoomies 😂😍
A downloadable project planner would great even if I want to change only a little room
OMG, baby is on the way!❤👶🐣
Please make a planner. I would buy!!
I would like to have access to the project planner, access to your brain is a good thing 🙂
Would love a planner!!

I love the idea of a edible project planner template. It could just be a PDF or maybe you could create a custom design and canva or in Millinote?
Guys guys guys!!!!! If you're renting you CAN change anything!!!! The only thing legally you must do is RETURN it to the landlords initial rental specification... Change lights. Hang pictures. Drill holes. Just returning everything To as is !!! YOU live in it. Make it home
I'm curious, does Kinsley react to your son when he becomes active while she is on your lap?
A physical diy planner would be better. Some people don’t have computers or printers so that would be really nice and I know you’d make it cute af.
That would be great if you would create a tutorial.
❤
🎉❤
Wait are you really not stressed at all?! I would be freaking out. Every time I’ve had a contractor come help me with anything I find it miserably stressful. I wonder how you manage so well. Especially since I think th goal was for them to be done before your due date
Good morning beautiful!
How about the budget breakdown of your kitchen…?🥴
🤎
was there ever a time when working with your current contractor , that he didn't know that you could do this yourself if you weren't pregnant , or tried to mansplain something to you or treat you like the little lady who thinks she knows what she's talking about ????
