    I hear you about needing to pay the bills but us true Planning with Bumble fans will watch old videos to pay your bills!! I re-watch your stuff all the time for inspiration on my spreads and to help you out! 🥰 You’re also the only channel where I watch entire ads for knowing you make more 💰

    I went through a period where I hated my planner because it was a reminder that I didn't have any friends or family to plan things with. It took me a while to find joy and to reinvent myself because I relied on others to fulfill that for so long. Now I just use my planner in a new way as a journal/ wellness planner and I learned to love it again. I think that me loving to plan again means I'm starting to love myself because it's a reflection of me ❤

    I’m here for you, whether it’s to watch you create, or to listen to you, or to Bumble grumbles. Do you!! HUGS 💖

    Mary Ellen, give yourself some grace during this difficult time. Post as much or as little that you can mentally and financially. Embrace family and friends and let them love and support you! As a fur manor 2 cats I have used a cat sitter when I travelled in the past. Currently I’m lucky enough to have a land lady who looks after my babies when I travel. I’m going to my first Go Wild and hope to meet you.

    Hi Mary Ellen! I'm a single lady (about to turn 37!) and I don't have any dogs, but I do have 3 cats. I know it's not the same, but it also brings limitations. I can leave them for a couple of days, but they are indoor cats and petrified of strangers so if I want to travel (my family lives overseas) I end up having to spend $1500 on a cat hotel each time. It's rough. That's not even mentioning having to catch 3 cats with only 2 hands. I think I started finding solutions the moment I stopped mentally fighting with the way it is. I spent the first year single listing all the things that I could now no longer do or had become too hard. Then I started restructuring my life to work around those challenges. For you that may mean finding Bumble-friendly outings, accepting Bumble may need to learn new resilience, asking a friend to occassionally babysit her for a small favour in return. Of course I don't know your life at all, but that was what held ME back. The moment I stopped being frustrated with the challenge, was the moment I was able to successfully meet the challenge. That said you are allowed periods of just being frustrated too, it's part of the process of grieving your old life and future. I hope you're having a good day ❤

    I know this is late, but I'm a divorced empty nester with a 17 year old Shih-tzu to care for and it is hard doing all the things while working full-time at a stressful career. You are doing a great job and know that you are loved by all your friends, both known and on the interwebs.❤️

    I’ve been watching your videos since 2021. You are one of the most relatable content creator I have had the pleasure of watching/getting to know. When you share about your life, it really is like a friend talking to a friend. You are so loved by all of us who appreciate your creativity and openness. Thank you for sharing a part of your life with us. I’m glad we can offer you support through your healing process. We are here for you.

    Mary Ellen, my heart goes out to you! My mother always said, "Keep on keeping on." That has been one of my mantras my entire life, and I commend you for doing that. I hope and believe that things will improve in your life, and I hope it helps to know that so many of us are rooting for you! I love your spirit and your creativity! Also, I have been behind in my planners since Christmas. I will catch up through backplanning and then fall behind again. My family is experiencing a major problem for which there is no easy solution. Planning is not as joyful as it was in the past, but I know it helps me in many ways. Sometimes I have to just do what I can and let the rest go! I wish the best for you. You are an awesome woman!

    I’m 65 and I have been watching your channel for a while. I have never commented but I feel the need now. First of all you are a beautiful person. If you think you are the only person that has had a break up please contact me. I was a Flight Attendant for 30 years and my life was a mess. Men can’t handle a women who travel and they don’t. I was single for 15 years. You have so much going for you. If I had a brother who was single, I would love to introduce you to him. Give yourself time. If you don’t feel like doing anything,don’t. Take care of you. I have a Lab and I love hearing Bumble. Makes me feel at home. Relax and do what you need to do. We will be here when you come back. You are a wonderful person! Victoria

  • @cherylsanchez2674
    @cherylsanchez2674 2 месяца назад

    I find March is an unsettling month in general. Weather can go from teases of spring, back to the grips of winter - sometimes in the same day! And then there's the whole "spring forward" thing that throws off everyone's circadian cycle. Add to that your personal situation, and you've got a recipe for stress. So, as others have said, go easy on yourself, be gentle and kind to yourself, and we will all be here to support you. 🤗🙏❤️

    thots for you..life is hard sometimes I know. Sometime in life we just shut down and doing things are just overwhelming..I understand. I'm an introvert by nature, it's hard for me now too after I retired. Also depression, anxiety, and ADHD..so I'm a mess I guess. I need to be with people and it's the hardest thing for me to do. I just want to shut down sometimes and be alone. You do a wonderful job with your videos, so inspiring. Be kind to yourself and give your grace...we do out here. We love you and you inspire us...what a wonderful thing you do! so take care of you and do what you need to do for you and give yourself grace most of all.

    Love your videos and talking/listening. We love you and support you in whatever you do or not do. I think a sticker company should make some stickers that reflect people’s feelings about not having a “happy day” all the time. I know that being a nurse and working will patients everyday is NOT happy & joyful. Days can be hard for everyone and you have had a rough few years. You are making a great difference with just showing your creativity. I 🙏 it gets better for you.

    I would totally come to a Mary Ellen meet up! I'm in Ohio so not too far away.
    Love this spread. Give yourself grace. I often decorate my spreads and then just get swamped at work and don't write in them. Plus, sometimes I feel like all I have to write is the same as the week before. You can only whine about hating your job so many times before it's just repetitive, amiright?!
    Totally understand about being embarrassed to share about your breakup. I stopped posting about anything other than the dog rescue I volunteer with on my socials because of the same. Thanks for sharing your life with us, even when it's hard. Your openness and honesty are what set you apart in the planner community. We are rooting you on! Power forward to great things! ❤❤

    If I had to do a flip through of my planner starting from the first of the year, you would see that I have not used my planner consistently. I can totally relate to everything you said because I have been going thru some stuff in my life. I missed watching you and all my other favorite planners. You have encouraged me to give myself some grace. This week was my first time using my planner again! When you were thinking of a name for your spread, it thought of primavera which means spring in Spanish. I know you and I are going to get thru this time. Thanks for being my friend. Have fun in Mexico!!!I would totally pet sit Bumble if I could.

    We don’t know each other BUT I do consider you a friend too! I’m single and new at being an empty nester too. It’s harder than I expected.
    And like you as well I have my shih tzu Rosie and I’m in the same boat with finding help with her.
    She was my mother’s dog and our agreement is she takes her when I need the help.
    You are such a beautiful person and you deserve the love I’m sure you give with your partner.
    You’re a catch and don’t you forget it! Smile.

    I am so in awe in that you share so much with us and power through what must be a very tough time for you. Break ups suck, but I have a feeling you are going to look back at this and realize the reason for it. Great things are ahead lady! We met at Go Wild, hope to see you again this year. Stay Strong! I have three dogs and yes, they are so needy, but pay us back with unconditional love. (Well sometimes we do have to bribe them with treats)

  • @juliagoolia72
    @juliagoolia72 3 месяца назад

    I’m a single woman in my 50s who until very recently had a dog. As you say, it’s extremely rewarding and helpful to have the dog, but it is a lot. Just like with anything, some days I wish I didn’t have too. My little furry best friend passed away in January, and even though I can relax more without the responsibility, I miss her fuzzy face so much. I miss having something to bring me that unconditional love. I was lucky that she was trained to be on her own while I was at work, so I was able to leave her for up to 8 hours, and when I needed to be longer, the best thing I ever did was find a doggy daycare to take her to that would allow for overnighters. They keep all the dogs they are caring for in the house with the family so she was never alone and scared in a kennel.

Just remember you are an amazing, strong, intelligent, beautiful woman 😊 but every so often just kicks us down and I mean kick. So so glad you are taking a timeout with your girls. Regenerate and enjoy. We are not going anywhere xxx massive hugs xxx

  • @queenfroglady6
    @queenfroglady6 3 месяца назад +2

    You have created a community with your channel. And by community, I don't mean just a bunch of followers who subscribe because of a gimmick or some type of viral clout; but a true community of viewers who connect with your content and with you as a person. I've been watching your videos since the beginning and feel connected to you. You were the first RUclipsr I actually subscribed to and started watching regularly and would get excited every time you had a new video posted! I mention this because of what you said about talking to your viewers like we're you're friends and wondering if we consider you our friends. And while the simplest answer is yes, the world just isn't so simple. The social dynamic that now exists in our world is unique and hard to define for those of us who grew up with more traditional definitions of friendship. However, it is easy for any one who watches your videos to see your genuine spirit.
    You have had some truly devastating moments over the past few years, as have many of your viewers also experienced on one level or another and can sympathize with the
    pain and emotions associated with loss like you are experiencing once again.
    Just because your job happens to be on display for others to see does not mean that your feelings are not valid or that you have to rush to get over the hurt you are feeling. You say you didn't decorate in your planner? You say didn't write in your planner? Ok, so you are a human being who is hurting. You🎉 were honest and "owned it", and you are doing the best you can. You are making videos, and trying to connect with your viewers and soldier on through the tough days. You have gotten through some even darker days before, and you will get through these too; but you need to give yourself grace.

  • @jeannietrapnell1000
    @jeannietrapnell1000 3 месяца назад +2

    So glad to see this video! I often don't write in my planner - or only write on a few days. Usually it gets decorated - though some times not til Wednesday or Thursday. And that's ok! The purpose of the planner is to help me get the most out of my day - and help me remember important things. And some days the way to get the most out of my day means I veg out or play or just take care of myself in whatever way makes me feel better. So sorry you are going through tough times right now. But proud of you for taking care of yourself. Praying you continue to take care of yourself. And hope to see you in Dallas in a little over a month! Loved this spread by the way!

    I understand how you're feeling right now. I just recently left a toxic job after 1 year of doing everything I could to make them happy, and losing my almost fiance (rings were bought and everything), moving out from our house, having to find a new place in a very short period of time, being transferred from my dream job to another floor in the hospital, to that floor telling me that I wasn't doing good enough, despite me meeting their expectations, to 2 other floors rejecting me, even though I was more than qualified for both of them, and one of the nurses I shadowed with was one that I had previously worked with, and would only have good things to say. Here's to a new start for us both! ❤

    Parasocial relationships is something I just heard a podcast on! That is absolutely what I have with you. I’m currently on maternity leave so my social interaction with adults is seriously limited. But it truly feels like talking to a friend when I play your videos. You keep me company and I appreciate that so much. Thank you for being so vulnerable and honest. I also thought the spread was going to look boring but I really loved it at the end! You’re doing great and you’re exactly where you are supposed to be right now. With love, Celeste.

    a hole is the hardest thing we have to do as humans. But it’s also the mark of resilience and inner strength that keeps us moving toward an even brighter goal down the road. Hugs..💕

    Mary Ellen, I would come meet you anytime!! I've only been using a planner since July, mostly as a creative outlet that doesn't take as much time as my other hobbies, but I feel like I've gotten to know you by watching your videos. I really miss when you don't post, but I really do understand what you're going through. You are grieving over your breakup and that's perfectly normal!! Do what you need to do for you!! I'm glad to hear you're going on a vacation with your girls and I hope the rest and relaxation do wonders for your mental health. Take care of you!

I did one year manage to journal every single day, but it’s not the norm! Very very cute spread!

    You asked how we do it with animals when we go through breakups or anything that causes us to be emotionally drained, and well thats life isn't it. We wish it would skip us and move on but somehow it seems to stop at our doorstep every now and then. I have always had animals and honestly when the emotional crap passed, my pet companion was still there and I found that they were the ones who got me through my hardship. You love her beyond measure and what would we do without them. Just look into her eyes are know she's there for you and I'm sure she takes some of that heartache away, not all of it but some of it and perhaps its enough at times to help to get you through. These hardships stink don't they? But there is joy again out there somewhere and by no means am I saying get over it. You get over it when you are ready and that goes with all of us. We all deal with things in our own time and never by anyone else's timeline. So don't beat yourself up or thinking you need to move on. Hug your Bumble boy, and your cat. And rest rest rest if you need it. Only you know what you need.

    I lost my soul dog & going thru serious medical issues. I hate when my planner is empty but it tells a story. My old me would have decorates & updated it late. Going thru a breakup is experiencing a death of a loved one; one truly goes thru grieving & all the emotions that comes with it. Humans cannot be consistent 100% of the time. It is an impossible standard. You’re doing great. ❤❤❤

    I really like your stories, I understand that you do not feel easy about the divorce with your partner.
    I am married, have 5 dogs.
    We both take care of the dogs, so that there is always someone there. If we both leave, we will make sure we are not away for more than 4 hours. In the Netherlands they accept 1 dog almost everywhere. What is also possible is a dog buggy and you can do everything and also eat out yourself. You will get immense love from them, and they will never hate you and you can't say that with people. I also have a lot of respect for you, I have learned a lot from you.
    Big hug. love Bianca

At the end of the year when you do a flip through, I hope you’ll look back and think, that was a good time to take a break and gather myself. Peace to you!

    @Bex_InMT 3 месяца назад +1

    I know when I journal (this sounds counter intuitive) but when I am in the thick of things, if I write about it, that makes it real. And I may not be able to process that in that very moment. So sometimes I don't write. I do have to keep my planner going every week because of my job and billing clients etc. I was a single woman with a dog and I just made sure wherever we went wad pet friendly. Then I had a baby at 39... and she didn't adore that but we did okay. But then she got tinier and tinier and I was pregnant again (this time with a partner). I had to make a hard decision about her as she wasn't able to even stand or walk anymore. I would totally watch Bumble if we were anywhere close (mine was a Maltese/Shih-Tzu mix)

    I have to force myself to write in my planner. I don’t do anything most days. Same thing everyday. We are retired. So. I make breakfast, I make dinner, I take pictures of my cats. I feel like my life is so boring. What am I supposed to put in my planner? As far as your future, doggy day care…and you can do volunteer work. Or take classes….I know a lot of older single women and that’s what they do because they do not want another man in their life….they are happy and their lives are full….you will find your way, just relax and enjoy the journey….❤
