Ms. Apple Cheeks! Kaiser is doing walk ins for Jen Covid Vaccine, She doesnt need to be a member of Kaiser permanente. I know specifically Bakersfield is doing this. But I believe Kaiser is all around... I hope theyre all on the same page... hope this helps....huuu..
Here’s a bit of an alternate perspective from someone who is 46 and didn’t take as many risks as she should have. Yes, you are young and should give yourself space and grace to be young. BUT on the flip side, there’s not a thing wrong with knowing what you want, where you want to go, and hustling to get there IF it’s making you happy. It’s okay to get somewhere five years before someone else. It’s okay to get somewhere five years behind someone else. Comparison KILLS us. YOU set your pace and go at YOUR speed, whatever that is. When something serves you well, do it or use it - when it doesn’t, move on. You’ve got this.
Agreed! I think I was just longing for a little but of adventure. Not necessarily straying away from my goals, but try to incorporate a bit of life in between. You phrased this amazingly! Thank you!
I love this comment so much! I turn 30 this year and feel stuck because the last few years I’ve been refining my art. And I just opened a shop, it’s a lot of work and I work full time, but I’d rather do my own thing. Sure it has its own stresses but I’m already sick of the corporate grind. I want something I can call my own, not be underpaid for my creativity and wait until I’m 65 to enjoy life…
Anytime I feel down about where I am in life and start comparing myself to others, I remind myself that we are all different books. We're all experiencing different chapters in our lives. I can't compare my book to another. Just that tiny reminder helps ease some of that anxiety.
"this vlog is not interesting at all" are you kidding? Running a small business isn't always interesting or glamorous or pretty. Sometimes it's hard and boring and demotivating and tedious and some days you procrastinate and other days you cry or sleep or eat your feelings. Forget interesting, it's realistic! From one small business owner to another, you're doing great :)
Everything you were talking about re: being surrounded by older people and thus feeling like you’re losing time and can’t really keep up was SO relatable. Most of my friends are 26+ and I’m 22, and I have felt the same way as you for so many months, but had no idea why. I’m glad I’m not alone and I’m really grateful you shared this with us. I’m going to work on allowing myself to be young ❤️
your vlogs are never boring you dont need to apologize! I love seeing you go about your business while also working on whatever it is I need to do too, it's so relaxing and just feels like we're hanging out and being productive together :D
Tiffany I remember you saying something about how you always think about the worst case scenario ( I am not a therapist) but I heard something once that said, If your mind can thing of the worst case scenario it ca also think of the best case scenario. I just thought I would say that no matter what you take from it
I related to your feelings on needing to accomplish more HARD. I'm 22 and about to graduate from my MA and feel like I'm a failure because I'm living at home and struggling to find a full time job, and most likely going into an area different to my degree because it's the only sector hiring. I have to remind myself constantly to slow down and take a breather to realise how much I have accomplished and that the world won't implode if I don't do everything in life by 30. I think there's a huge amount of pressure on young people to accomplish major life steps as quickly as possible and not be 'lazy' or sponging off of society. But those are just my ramblings! I love your studio vlogs they're very relaxing and insightful.
I relate to you so much on having a hard time asking for help and feeling like I’m not far enough in my career!! I also work with people who are much further in their careers and feel like I don’t measure up. Thank you for the reminder to not rush through life!
I feel the same when you said that you feel you haven’t done much in your life and comparing other people lifestyle and successes. I’m 23 years old too and I haven’t completed college and only worked in a job for 6 months during the pandemic. I feel like I haven’t done much in my life and just been staying home doing nothing. I’m in a weird phase where I’m still learning about myself and what I should do in future to sustain myself. I thought my life was going in a good direction until the whole pandemic happened and I’m back to level one. I have to remind myself not to compare myself to other people especially artists that are close to my age that are successful in their small business. I just have to try to work hard on reaching my goals and be in happy life. I hope everything will go great in the end.
Hearing you talk abt how you feel like your not on track was,,,, it hit home for me and,,,it was just very helpful to hear someone else also feels that way. I’ve struggled with that a lot, especially since I finished college. I missed out on a lot of stuff during high school and as a 23 year old it feels like my life experience is,,,less than all my friends and I’m still at home while I see my friends moving out with their partners and getting new jobs and all that but,,, you’re right, everyone grows at their own speed and where we are right now is fine. I just need to enjoy where I am right now and not worry about where others are in comparison. Thank you for talking about that, honestly was so nice to hear after the anxious week I’ve had over it. 💖💖💖🥰
I love your content Tiffany! Whether your vlogs are just you packaging, rambling on about anything, or doodling. I love chill vlogs. It's nice to watch someone whose just going on their day to day lives. We don't always have big adventures everyday, mainly side quests, but they do lead to big adventures. It's still a great journey to be on. You're doing great and continue to just go at your own pace. ^^
I'm 22 and I completely get what you mean about not allowing yourself to live! I think our generation has a lot of pressure on us because we seemingly have so many more oppurtunities and access to so many more resources than those before us did, so we should be doing something amazing with it and reaching traditional "success". But we also have to learn to define our own success in life, and find what that is in each stage of life without comparing to others. But its hard! (sorry for the long comment)
I love that you are open about your struggles with your life and that you publish these video diaries. I relate a lot wanting to be productive all the time and sometimes find myself very frustrated when it isn't going the way I want it. Then I make another drawing. Thank you for your refreshing candor. I really enjoy these videos.
For a 23 you are so much more accomplished than I ever was!!! You have a book! I’m 37 about to be 38 and I still haven’t really done anything with my life except work day job and hang out with my friends.
I'm *thankful* for your REALness! Talking *positive words* to yourself is so important!! And you are a sweet blessing to those who watch you, Tiffany! No matter if you think your vlog is "boring"! 😄🥰
I also have, friends that are older than me and i oftem find myself comparing myself with them, and because of that i'm supper rigorous with what i'm doing and archieving. And i also have problems with asking for help, my entire life i have trust issue with people as i've been disapointed a lot. Thank you for sharing this, to listen another person saying that they are going through something similar that makes my heart feel so warm.
This was really nice: I am 23 years old, too, and am experiencing similar things. Lately I have been comparing myself so much, not just with others but also with these expectations of a "perfect adult me" that I have somehow created? Becoming an adult is really hard and I have realised it is really hard to immediately do everything right, and that I do need help. I am still in the process of seeing what I need to do, but hearing your take on life was really inspiring. I think its important to take time to think about what youre feeling and reflect on how it impacts your life? I think one's twenties are the age where you should see what your boundraries are: experiencing fun and good things, while also seeking adult stability without overworking yourself. Let's all do our best to find the healthy life habbits that work for ourselves
I was the exact same way when I was in college! Now looking back I wish I got more involved with people while at college but I guess I prioritized work and school before social life.
I am also that “independent” stubborn person. For someone who loves people so much and find people fascinating it really is a mind fuck, sending you love. ❤️
I am in the process of starting a company! I'm doing everything myself, from website designing, to bookkeeping. Hoping to launch in fall!! You have been super inspiring and comforting to watch. I often just put your videos on while I do work, cause watching you get so much done motivates me to work! I wish you incredible luck and continuing success in the future and beyond!!!!
Your videos always have the creativity and positive vibes I need, and I really appreciate the way you talk us through your internal thoughts. It puts some things into perspective for me. I also admire you as a small business owner since I’m in the process of launching one eventually. Have another good week, Tiffany! ❤️😊
I love your editing and the personality you show on camera so much❤️ you make my days shine. When I’m down I look at your vlogs and everything gets better✨ Thank you for what you’re doing🥰
i totally relate to you in so many ways! it’s always been tough for me to ask for help because i’ve always been an independent person but i’ve realized how important your community is in helping you grow both as a person + professionally. also i’m sure so many people can relate to you about the whole comparison game ~ it’s so easy to compare our own journeys with other people but like you said, we’re all going at our own pace! thanks for always being super vulnerable with us + sharing both your lows/highs
Along with all of your instant gratification projects, try to keep an ongoing, harder project. Something that will take you months or years to complete. A painting, a book, a sketchbook. It’ll be a pain in the butt, I’m sure, but also probably something we all should do just to get out of this “I need to do x,y,z” mentality. I’m an artist & almost 35. At 23, I was nowhere near as accomplished, independent, or as financially successful as you are, though I didn’t strive to be then, either. We all have our own goals & are living through a collective trauma right now. Give yourself grace. ❤️❤️❤️
This is such good advice, I do think I'm lacking the patience of ongoing, longer projects because of the social media mentality of always needing to push out work. I've been trying to be more patient in completing sketchbooks so at least I have that going on right now!
@@apple.cheeks it can be something that you put away when easily frustrated, but something you put on your agenda to do weekly or monthly. It can be private or public. You make your own rules. Be your own client. Do something big for you. I saw that when you were taking a break from social media, you wanted to play, so play. You are doing so much & deserve to take breaks. You are pumping out a lot of content. You are getting paid by some (patreon), but not by all. You don’t owe us others (non-patrons, the algorithm, trolls, etc.) anything.
Your talk about doing life at your own pace really helped me 🥲 I also always feel like I’m behind but honestly we’re so young and have so much time to figure things out! ❤️
I found funny when you talked about feeling like you always have to rush things and then saying that maybe people won't find that relatable, but then there was me literally crying because that's exactly what I needed to hear. I know a lot of people might say this, but you really talk about a lot of fears or problems I face, like finding increibly difficult to ask help and want to do everything by myself. And not only here, also in some other of your blogs so I really appreciate you being open about these things that might appear little sometimes. It makes me (and sure a lot of other people/artists) to feel they aren't alone :') I love love watching your blogs.
I used to be big into art growing up , I love art still and trying to get back into it digitally I'm 26 jobless and feeling like my life is pretty much over with how behind I am , dealing with depression and anxiety like most and growing up in not the best way but yano everyone's different my life's not the hardest but I'm so stuck in this poor mental and it blows. I really enjoy these artist vlogs be it chill packing orders or creating art or going out on adventures it's like living the life I want vicariously threw other creators 😅
I feel very similar, I am almost 23 and I feel like I need to be accomplished already (also having older friends and an older boyfriend..). I did not really have the typical university experience, so now that I have graduated I feel the need to really "live and feel" my twenties, not just be alive. Also, you have already accomplished so much for the age you are with a shop, patreon, youtube, which already is more accomplished than a lot of other people your age! As long as you are happy what you are doing, you are doing great
Okay, so, about your anxiety. I'm almost 32 yrs old and nowhere as far as you are in my business. Just a reminder that indeed everybody leads a different life. Oh and, I hope to always be stargazing and have silly fun with friends and lover, forever!! :D
I really appreciate your talks. I came to the same conclusion after all the stress in college where I was put into a group of highly motivated and talented designers because I was also considered good enough to be part of that "top team", I felt like I was drowning compared to how fast and efficient they were at working. The thing was that they had all had at least 5 years of experience in the field before this program! And to be considered near their level, even if it was a big gap, was a great thing as a complete newbie. I still always wanted to do better but it helped a bit to know I might just need more time before I'm there too. I forgot that a little bit as I graduated and lost connection to people in my age, I was stuck at home with my parents and hearing amazing things about my highly successful older siblings. I really want to take life and my own pace and make mistakes and memories too, but I'm afraid I worry too much that people are expecting more. I should talk to my therapist again and get back on track. I'm only 21 after all
If you can or if you have a friend who’s good with APIs, you can use Walgreens public API for covid vaccine appointments and set up a Postman to notify you when there is an appointment the moment it’s available. That’s how my bf found his mom a covid vaccine appointment in California. Hope your mom finds one!
I love these vlogs, it's really motivating me to starting preparing for launching an online art shop, so don't feel bad, watching this is super inspiring !
Yes to everything you said!! I felt just like that a while ago and it was so bad that I had to take a break from pursuing art as a career because it was to a point that it had consumed so much of my life and all I was feeling was stressed. I knew that wasn’t right. I remember journaling that I wanted to create just for the sake of creating and living life to the fullest at the same time. I took a break and focused on learning what are other things that bring me joy, and only making for the sake of making as well as exploring and living more. Once I felt like I could back to trying to pursue art as a career as well as have a good balance with life it was just amazing. Now I don’t even hesitate when it comes to deciding to take the day off instead of working. I hope you find that balance too ❤️ there’s definitely more to life than succeeding at work, don’t let society & capitalism fool ya. Do what you love 💕
I love seeing you grow! it is so beautiful and helpful to see you work on your mental health etc. You're doing great! If you do what feels good to you, everything will come out just fine.
I relate to the high school projects😭 I’m so glad to be done with that chapter, but I’m in college now and like you I just go home right after. My school is currently not open to students yet though due to covid
I’m not sure if your mom would be up for the drive but in bakersfield at CSUB, the college, they’re allowing walk-ins!! They haven’t had the turnout from the city they were hoping for so they’re trying to get as many people as possible!!! Super fast and easy my brother and I were in and out in 30 mins!
i really relate to feeling like you arent living in your twenties, i stayed at home for uni too and i now feel suffocated as im coming to the end and i feel like i dont want to miss the train of this life filling opportunities. but i guess age is a number and although i need to live for the now i will have my whole life to claim back what i once didnt experience. lets get through this together tiffany. thank you for your chats and ur videos
Super cute vlog, i love it! I would like to learn more about the children's book please! Ist so adorable❤🥰 And evertime your thumbnails are so preatty and on point, love the colours
Maggie: don’t try every hour try over and over, my husband got it that way. April 15 is the day that everyone 18 and up can get the vaccine. My friend has a friend who put herself in a list for people who don’t go to their appointment and she got it that way. Try over and over. Good luck we live in Valencia, Ca.
yeah those high school projects can generate some unpleasant feelings for sure, I had that issue even in uni. I rather work by myself haha. 14:31 girl I'm 32 and it depresses me that I feel I'll never own my own place. I haven't found stability where I am and it sucks and everyday I hope it would get better. What I'm going for (my goal wasn't to sound that depressing) is that everyone has different circumstances and events in their life that will affect how you grow and that is not bad, its just what it is, we each grow and live at our own time, some will get some place first, some later, but that doesn't mean you're doing anything wrong, you are just doing you and living your life. I hate when people told me "you're only 20, you got time!" that sucks, is true you can't just focus on dealing with all the troubles and goals, you gotta live your life, but is nice to know you have a goal in mind and will work towards that.
when you talked about how its okay to go at different paces, i really liked hearing that too! been pushing myself to always be getting things done and rsuhing to start new things asap to progress my life, but its really okay to take things slow T~T
I always look forward to your videos! And again, this was a great one. I hope you can grow your business and eventually find a bigger space for all of it 🤩 *note: make sure to set up your chair properly. If need be you can find instructions on good ol YT.. An ergonomic chair doesn’t make any difference if it’s not set up properly.
Gurrrrl I am 25 just finished my master in a pandemic so no work :,) trying to survive ✨ let’s eat a lot of gelato on our way and we will find the way 💞
I didn’t know you had scoliosis! Did you have to wear a brace at any point in time? I wore a Boston brace growing up from 4 till 16 when I had two rods placed. I love your videos and your art. It has been very inspiring for me to start working on my own Etsy shop!
I'm tempted to get that desk myself. I like desks like that and my back isn't in great shape either though it's from arthritis in my lower back and hips that's gradually going up. Have it in my right shoulder and cerebral palsy too. Have to get Steroid Shots every so often or 6 months for my shoulder so. . .fun times. 😅 Anyway I may get that desk for myself at some point. 😊
I find you inspirational in your own way. 😊 Hint im 20 yrs older..lol. I love your vlogs! I actually want to be able to do some of the things you do😮😊😂

Loved this comment, thank you, I’m turning 30 and worry about my ‘progress’
As a 48 Yr old I was going to say exactly the same. Just be you, you are doing great xx
thanks for the comment you put in here. it motivates me as tiffany's audience😊

Finding so many young women business owners on here. Love this community. Everyone’s so inspiring 🤍

I'm scarred LOL
I always would trust people to fill out the poster due the next day, and then they wouldn't have touched it

Your thoughtful words brought me to tears again. I aspire to have your mindset.
I watch your video vlog not because it's interesting or not. It's because of you. Your independent life & how you shares your talent to us.
I love that you are open about your struggles with your life and that you publish these video diaries.

30 minutes of vlog content?! pure bliss.
Can't wait to see your new vlog ! 🐥 (this thumbnail has perfect spring vibe ! 🌷🌷🌷)
Ah yes my favourite mood booster is here

Be your own client. Do something big for you. I saw that when you were taking a break from social media, you wanted to play, so play. You are doing so much & deserve to take breaks. You are pumping out a lot of content. You are getting paid by some (patreon), but not by all. You don’t owe us others (non-patrons, the algorithm, trolls, etc.) anything.
@@junejewell Thank you !! I've been trying to just go with what I want to do recently. There was even a week where I cooked new recipes all week!
Yeah. I'm 23 as well and I've been doing is work and work. Even when I started college it was just work and foing things by myself.
Your talk about doing life at your own pace really helped me 🥲 I also always feel like I’m behind but honestly we’re so young and have so much time to figure things out! ❤️
I found funny when you talked about feeling like you always have to rush things and then saying that maybe people won't find that relatable, but then there was me literally crying because that's exactly what I needed to hear. I know a lot of people might say this, but you really talk about a lot of fears or problems I face, like finding increibly difficult to ask help and want to do everything by myself. And not only here, also in some other of your blogs so I really appreciate you being open about these things that might appear little sometimes. It makes me (and sure a lot of other people/artists) to feel they aren't alone :') I love love watching your blogs.
I used to be big into art growing up , I love art still and trying to get back into it digitally I'm 26 jobless and feeling like my life is pretty much over with how behind I am , dealing with depression and anxiety like most and growing up in not the best way but yano everyone's different my life's not the hardest but I'm so stuck in this poor mental and it blows.
I really enjoy these artist vlogs be it chill packing orders or creating art or going out on adventures it's like living the life I want vicariously threw other creators 😅
I feel very similar, I am almost 23 and I feel like I need to be accomplished already (also having older friends and an older boyfriend..). I did not really have the typical university experience, so now that I have graduated I feel the need to really "live and feel" my twenties, not just be alive. Also, you have already accomplished so much for the age you are with a shop, patreon, youtube, which already is more accomplished than a lot of other people your age! As long as you are happy what you are doing, you are doing great
😄 Congratulations, Caitlyn! I'm so jealous! I love that cute Apple! 😊
Okay, so, about your anxiety. I'm almost 32 yrs old and nowhere as far as you are in my business. Just a reminder that indeed everybody leads a different life. Oh and, I hope to always be stargazing and have silly fun with friends and lover, forever!! :D
I really appreciate your talks. I came to the same conclusion after all the stress in college where I was put into a group of highly motivated and talented designers because I was also considered good enough to be part of that "top team", I felt like I was drowning compared to how fast and efficient they were at working. The thing was that they had all had at least 5 years of experience in the field before this program! And to be considered near their level, even if it was a big gap, was a great thing as a complete newbie. I still always wanted to do better but it helped a bit to know I might just need more time before I'm there too. I forgot that a little bit as I graduated and lost connection to people in my age, I was stuck at home with my parents and hearing amazing things about my highly successful older siblings. I really want to take life and my own pace and make mistakes and memories too, but I'm afraid I worry too much that people are expecting more. I should talk to my therapist again and get back on track. I'm only 21 after all
also could really relate to the “wanting to do everything myself” 🥺
Thank you for this calming video! Some your thoughts/words made me feel a lot better :3
Your art vlogs so cute! I am so inspired I am going to trying make my own frame boarders for my videos.
I'm watching this while book binding a sketchbook :D
I’m also bad at asking for help! Either I feel like a bother or when I’ve asked people have made it more difficult for me…
sundays are so much nicer when we have new videos of yours
If you can or if you have a friend who’s good with APIs, you can use Walgreens public API for covid vaccine appointments and set up a Postman to notify you when there is an appointment the moment it’s available. That’s how my bf found his mom a covid vaccine appointment in California. Hope your mom finds one!
I love these vlogs, it's really motivating me to starting preparing for launching an online art shop, so don't feel bad, watching this is super inspiring !
I love watching you packing orders and you seem so nice :-)
WOW! I'm still remembering your fun in watching for SNOW ❄ !!!
I remember that too! To me, that was the definition of just living life and doing whatever xD
Man, I'm 31 and I have only just started properly living my life. There's absolutely no time limit or expiry date to finding yourself.
Yes to everything you said!! I felt just like that a while ago and it was so bad that I had to take a break from pursuing art as a career because it was to a point that it had consumed so much of my life and all I was feeling was stressed. I knew that wasn’t right. I remember journaling that I wanted to create just for the sake of creating and living life to the fullest at the same time. I took a break and focused on learning what are other things that bring me joy, and only making for the sake of making as well as exploring and living more. Once I felt like I could back to trying to pursue art as a career as well as have a good balance with life it was just amazing. Now I don’t even hesitate when it comes to deciding to take the day off instead of working. I hope you find that balance too ❤️ there’s definitely more to life than succeeding at work, don’t let society & capitalism fool ya. Do what you love 💕
I love seeing you grow! it is so beautiful and helpful to see you work on your mental health etc. You're doing great! If you do what feels good to you, everything will come out just fine.
Fear is the enemy of everything.... push the fear away.... love your channel
I relate to the high school projects😭 I’m so glad to be done with that chapter, but I’m in college now and like you I just go home right after. My school is currently not open to students yet though due to covid
Tuesdays outfit! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥰
I’m not sure if your mom would be up for the drive but in bakersfield at CSUB, the college, they’re allowing walk-ins!! They haven’t had the turnout from the city they were hoping for so they’re trying to get as many people as possible!!! Super fast and easy my brother and I were in and out in 30 mins!
Yessss we like packing content. Thank u!!
i really relate to feeling like you arent living in your twenties, i stayed at home for uni too and i now feel suffocated as im coming to the end and i feel like i dont want to miss the train of this life filling opportunities. but i guess age is a number and although i need to live for the now i will have my whole life to claim back what i once didnt experience. lets get through this together tiffany. thank you for your chats and ur videos
I love watching packing vlogs! I always have them on when I work on my shop orders as well, it's kinda like suffering together haha
Super cute vlog, i love it!
I would like to learn more about the children's book please! Ist so adorable❤🥰
And evertime your thumbnails are so preatty and on point, love the colours
Your each and every upload is always interesting for me ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I love your vlogs soooo muuuch ❤️❤️
always feel relaxed whilst watching your videos^^
that phone call V.O. was cool n creative 👌
Maggie: don’t try every hour try over and over, my husband got it that way. April 15 is the day that everyone 18 and up can get the vaccine. My friend has a friend who put herself in a list for people who don’t go to their appointment and she got it that way. Try over and over. Good luck we live in Valencia, Ca.
Seeing other artists I follow in your vlogs is super cool
I really like when you make a vlog and share us your days
i’m so excited for this vlog thank u for posting regularly :))
yeah those high school projects can generate some unpleasant feelings for sure, I had that issue even in uni. I rather work by myself haha.
14:31 girl I'm 32 and it depresses me that I feel I'll never own my own place. I haven't found stability where I am and it sucks and everyday I hope it would get better. What I'm going for (my goal wasn't to sound that depressing) is that everyone has different circumstances and events in their life that will affect how you grow and that is not bad, its just what it is, we each grow and live at our own time, some will get some place first, some later, but that doesn't mean you're doing anything wrong, you are just doing you and living your life.
I hate when people told me "you're only 20, you got time!" that sucks, is true you can't just focus on dealing with all the troubles and goals, you gotta live your life, but is nice to know you have a goal in mind and will work towards that.
Ahh Finally new vlog . Take care Apple Cheeks ❤️
when you talked about how its okay to go at different paces, i really liked hearing that too! been pushing myself to always be getting things done and rsuhing to start new things asap to progress my life, but its really okay to take things slow T~T
I always look forward to your videos! And again, this was a great one. I hope you can grow your business and eventually find a bigger space for all of it 🤩
*note: make sure to set up your chair properly. If need be you can find instructions on good ol YT.. An ergonomic chair doesn’t make any difference if it’s not set up properly.
I like your glasses look. 🤓 girls with glasses are cool.
I like both xD I like to change it up sometimes
You are a queen of coolness: you do you, will for sure work great. 👑
Acuvue Moist 1-day - super comfy and thin contacts.

U should be a motivational speaker, honestly that was so inspiring

Where is your black and white check dress from? Your outfits are so bomb lately!
Gurrrrl I am 25 just finished my master in a pandemic so no work :,) trying to survive ✨ let’s eat a lot of gelato on our way and we will find the way 💞
Your vlogs help me staying calm through the chaos
hope you're doing well!
I also have scolioses! idk thought I just mention it... for some reason I started to admire you even more after I heard that haha
who else likes the video before even watching it, cause me 2. love this video
I didn’t know you had scoliosis! Did you have to wear a brace at any point in time? I wore a Boston brace growing up from 4 till 16 when I had two rods placed. I love your videos and your art. It has been very inspiring for me to start working on my own Etsy shop!
Apple Cheeks vlogs are life.
I'm tempted to get that desk myself. I like desks like that and my back isn't in great shape either though it's from arthritis in my lower back and hips that's gradually going up. Have it in my right shoulder and cerebral palsy too. Have to get Steroid Shots every so often or 6 months for my shoulder so. . .fun times. 😅 Anyway I may get that desk for myself at some point. 😊
your childrens book looks so pretty 🥺
Can I just say how much I love the decor in your apartment?? #Goals
I find you inspirational in your own way. 😊 Hint im 20 yrs older..lol. I love your vlogs! I actually want to be able to do some of the things you do😮😊😂
I love your channel, don't give up your amazingl ❤😊
