      5 minute timer. Or a stop watch - I found out just how little time it takes to get those small tasks done. Always leave a room with full hands (stuff that goes elsewhere). I procrastinate thinking the chores are huge and will take forever, but when I set a stop watch to see how quickly I can get the job done, I find out instead of four hours, it took 45 minutes. That's motivating for next time.

    Half way through listening to this… I’ve never heard anyone talk about this! I only really listen to a few you tube homeschool mom’s… there’s no one in my church or anyone close by that I know that homeschools & I gain encouragement listening to other homeschool mom’s talk as I drink coffee in the morning or cook. I’ve never heard anyone talk about stuff like this. Wow. This is great!!! Thanks!!!!! 💕

    Decluttering my house has been one of the most helpful things that I have done. It’s just so much more manageable with less stuff. I’ve also taken some shortcuts in laundry like not folding rags or kid’s underwear and handing off my teen’s laundry to them. Minimized wardrobes have helped too.

    • @JustMakinItWork

    I do what I call “commercial cleaning”. During every TV show on a cleaning day, I get up & work hard doing a task for the 4 minutes of commercials are done. Other times I set an alarm to clean for 10 min & then take 15 min off & repeat. I’m blessed to have a very involved husband that picks up the slack when it’s a rough time for me. My favorite book for helping to keep your house clean without large cleaning jobs. The book is sink reflections by the Flylady. Excellent!

    This is the first time I've watched your videos. I live with 3 autoimmune diseases and 2 chronic immune diseases. Fatigue is a huge part of my life. In addition, I help my 82 yr. old mom with things like grocery shopping and all of her appointments. I've been on a quest to declutter the past few months. I've also organized cabinets and my refrigerator using inexpensive containers. Setting a timer to work for 10-15 minutes helps keep me focused and doesn't wear me out. On days when I'm dealing with a complete loss of energy, I give myself time to rest, if possible.

    I am nearing the last few weeks of pregnancy, and my belly is sore from stretching and I want a clean house because the nesting feeling is kicking in and and and. Haha! My kiddos are a big help--I've been spending the last half year doing some serious home training in prep for new baby season, and it is paying off in dividends now. I can clean for 15 minutes but then I start losing steam. My kiddos have really picked up the slack and it's been a great blessing. Loved these extra tips and it's so comforting to know we're not alone! ❤️❤️💪

    I'm a stay at home mom now with 3 girls that don't always want to help out 😫🤦‍♀️ Anyways I've been feeling so drained for no reason lately. I wake up feeling so tired and my anxiety is so high. Everything is like how u explained in the beginning of ur video. We recently moved and I still haven't finished unpacking all the clothes and I always feel overwhelmed and tired but need to get things done asap. I am a mild hoarder but have been trying to get clutter out to stop the hoarding.

    Thanks so much for this video. Today’s the day I’m tackling the mess I’ve been ignoring. 5 years ago I lost my husband of 20 years to cancer when he was 46. We have two grown children and two littles who are full time here at home with me. The past 5 years feels like we, my kids and I, have all changed since losing their daddy. It’s felt like I’ve had to relearn how to live and live without him being here. My girls have been my reason to keep pressing on as well as my faith but I know I’ve basically just existed. March 4 was the 5th anniversary of his passing and since then it seems to have really hit me to get my rear up and get things cleaned properly because I have been blessed with my body to be able to. Plus we all know how much better we fill when we aren’t staring at stuff just scattered everywhere. Thank you again and I’m ready to get things done! Finally!😊🙏❤️❤️

    • @JustMakinItWork
      @JustMakinItWork  Год назад +2

      @BornToBeAlive I think that's the hardest part for me too! If I fold in the room the clothes belong it's one less step to get the clothes put away. I also won't put ALL the laundry away at once. For instance, I may only put JUST our Preschoolers clothes away THEN do my own at another time. Breaking it up seems to help. Still not my favorite 🙃😅

It’s a huge shift in mindset from my younger days. One way I clean when fatigued…I hit the highlights, so to speak. I can go through each room and do a tidy up, a simple bathroom wipe down and dishes. I find, I always feel better having those basics done. Deep cleaning just has to wait. Laundry is usually my hardest when fatigued…and I enjoy laundry! It tends to pile up unfortunately 🙄 God bless!

    I am 1.5 years into being disabled by long COVID. I used to deal with cleaning in multi-hour cleaning marathons. It taken a year after 6 months of just non-functioning to get to a place where things are more manageable. The biggest challenge was the mental shift. Working on a habit of putting things away as I finish with them. The 2nd wave was decluttering. This is huge because after literal garbage, laundry and dishes it takes Mental effort to know where everything goes and getting rid of stuff has an emotional component. Should it go in the garbage? Be a gift? Be donated? All decisions take Mental energy. Making the decisions gets easier with practice. But as with all things getting started is the hardest and momentum carries you after you begin. I have learned to see decluttering as something that also needs to be a daily habit.
    Turns out when you no longer have "too much" stuff re:more than you can easily manage surfaces stay clear longer and wiping down clear surfaces takes minimal energy.
    It is a really long time commitment if you can only spare 5 minutes of energy a day. But it is entirely worth it.

      @revelationawake thank you for taking the time to share what you are carrying. You have been entrusted with much and I know it's an honor yet can be so heavy too. You sound like a super devoted and commited Mama🥰
      I do have a couple suggestions. Without knowing you full situation take them or leave them😉
      1)Seek out those in your personal community for support. Sometimes we just need an extra set of hands to work alongside us or someone to play with little ones so we can knock out tasks. This could be someone from your church, coop or other friends and groups of individuals you spend time with. We need support and help in varying seasons. It may take some humility, but asking for help can be a game changer and a means to navigate hard seasons. I have asked others for help AND I have accepted help with others have offered. Again, it takes humility but having help got me through some trying times.
      2) Try a toy rotation to keep toys, activities and resources orderly and minimize the constant overwhelming mess. Let me see if I can link a video going into this method that has helped us tremendously with the constant mess🥰
      Please reach out anytime 🥰

      @Our Thrifty Homeschool Yes. Guilt is a tool of the enemy and I really try hard to not carry and walk in guilt. Tough one but freeing when we can just "be" where we need to be
