    I remember when you first started this journey with the loss of your mom and the hoarded house. You've come a long way - fighting depression, the trauma of the hoard, finding a gym to make you feel normal, endless sales, your cat visitor, constantly rearranging for the sales, yard improvement, finding things to keep for memories without it turning into your own hoard. Just so much to deal with. Love the wood chips! Adds warmth. Keep it up❤

    Your parents were so attractive & youthful. Your dad had a killer smile! I hate that we get old. Wiping away the tears. Tyfs.

    Well done on taking all those donations. You had another huge pile to bring into the house. I’m not surprised you were tired. You certainly are reclaiming the space. As a novelty idea you could always give a free candle with items that are bought and it might spare you another trip with donations. The pictures of your parents are lovely. Have a great week. Mary, Joes wife 🙇‍♀️👏💪👍🙏💐🐈🐈

    Boy have you made me think. I’m 74 now, how’d that happen. I need to eliminate more. Want to make it easy for my kids. Don’t plan to leave for at least 20 more years, tho!! lol.
    Take care.

    It seems to me as though you've got a really good balance of knowing how long to try and sell something and knowing when you need to just cut your losses and get it removed from your house. There's finally light at the end of the dark tunnel! You've worked so hard since you've started this journey. I bet if you go back and watch your first few videos, you'll be shocked at the amazing progress you've made. I'm sure your parents would be so proud of you. It was lovely to see the photos of them at the end. It's very touching, and you can really see the family resemblance. I wish you all the best in your future sales, and I hope you make big bucks! Love from England. ❤

    Mr. Cat might be leaving fleas in your house and that's what is biting you. Fleas and mosquitos love me. Sounds like they love you too.
    FYI - candles - I wouldn't advise putting them on the sidewalk outside for free cause they melt. That happened to me once when I had a yard sale.

    Thank you for sharing the photos of your Mom and Dad. You're doing an awesome job on your home! Coca is possibly looking out for Mr. Cat when he sneaks out. I love the scented candles and I used to buy them from rummage sales. Now I buy the wax melts for the warmers. The donation place scored on those 3 truck loads! The Salvation Army and our local donation stores had also helped the tornado victims here, so donating your items is for a very good cause that you can feel good about.

    @RoundMtnDryGoods 2 месяца назад +1

    You are so close to being done! Your mosquito problem might be a result of a plumbing issue...just a thought. If there's a leak anywhere, it will draw them, and they'll lay eggs in the water.

    Go away skeeters. Go away bees!
    Glad you got some rest- it was good to see Coco 🥰
    Good progress, Mindy👏🏼 keep up the good work ( btw- I too hoard scented candles- good grief! ) I often see myself in your posts. You are helping others- you’re helping me.

    Ammmmmmmaziing accomplishments. You did such a fantastic job. Putting things on fb marketplace was a good idea because it might get it out before a sale which is fantastic. Every selling chance helps. What if you did large groups of things- example put a whole bunch of candles into a box and sell the box at one price. The same with the cleaners, jars and such. Thank you for sharing the pictures of your parents. They are beautiful people and have an amazing daughter. ❤

    Have you looked for fleas .. they might be around because of Mr Cat maybe be bringing them into the house.
    Just a thought.
    You’ve come a long way.. enjoying to see your videos.

  • @mackerelcat6677
    @mackerelcat6677 2 месяца назад +4

    Bites on your legs could well be fleas. They'll come out in yards after a rain and hitch a ride into the house on people's pants legs. Some people are extra-tasty and get bitten a lot. Laying a wrung-out hot washcloth, as hot as you can stand, will bring relief, then use Benedryl cream.

  • @dianenorris299
    @dianenorris299 2 месяца назад +14

    Could Mr. Cat have brought in fleas. Our outdoor cat did that to our home years ago and my lower legs were a mess. Had to fumigate 😩🐱

    • @chickabiddies

    Cheering you on as you take load after load to the donation center! I love that you are marking more and more items for FREE for upcoming sales. Every item that leaves seems to be taking a literal and figurative weight off of your shoulders. Praying for you as you grieve your mom and work so hard to find new homes for her belongings.

  • @marshaparsons6515

    If I recall, the door on your shed is a pre-hung door, which arrives from the manufacturer with the trim attached. Vinca is hardy here in Tampa Bay. It would be pretty in your mulched area, if it grows in your area? Good looking parents! I can see why you are so pretty!!!!

  • @KlingonPrincess
    @KlingonPrincess 2 месяца назад +2

    I so enjoyed seeing the photos. Good times! I'm amazed at how much stuff your parents accumulated and that all of it is in great shape. There's a concept in minimalism of lightening the load so it's easier to manage. Your mom sure did a great job managing a heavy load. Keep going! You are doing awesome work. 🌻🍄

    Is there a way to put all your “free” items outside at your next sale? It might be easier for people to grab things on their way out. Just a thought. It might be easier for you too knowing that everything inside has a price.

    Just a thought, perhaps you should have one room of items, full a box or bag for $5 or $2 and they can pick any items from that room. Better you get something than having to donate it all and get nothing. 😊
