Yes! Donate any and everything you can to shelters. I have been in a shelter before years ago with both my boys and it was such a blessing to wake up, go out and see all kinds of stuff. It really brings such joy when you have almost nothing and you wake up to see things you really need or would love to have. 21:10
Hey Friend, Happy Thursday. I have been here for a couple years and I love seeing your channel’s growth. ❤ I agree unboxing and trying to find a place for everything is definitely the worst part of moving. 😢 I’m sorry that you lost your husband’s customized photo frame that he got for you as a Valentine’s Day gift. 😢❤ I’m going to make sure to get a house equal size of what I’m used to that way I won’t have to worry about making room for everything that I have. I love organizer bins they make life so much easier. ❤🥰
Your new home is coming along Ashley. I'm sure the boxes and the piles of unpacked items everywhere has unsettling but you're getting there. I will say with decluttering or feeling like you have too much stuff, look at it as what you will donate will go to a good home who may need it and enjoy it. Take it from someone who lived with minimal until I was able to afford more. Donations and shopping at thrift stores were lifesaving. It blows my mind that some states are not mandated to recycle. Where I live we've been recycling for well over 2 decades. It's such a good feeling for our future and environment. Same with eco bags. My trunk is filled with bags and I never shop without them. Stores here require shoppers to bring their own. Few stores will provide paper bags for 5 or 25 cents. TFS and good luck with the progress 🙌🏼
I'm so glad you are getting settled in and getting the unpacking done. I know that is such a huge relief! Also I love the countertops and backsplash. I think it is beautiful. I would never have thought to put those together, but the blue in it is really striking!
We fill up a trash bag so fast in a day, but we have to take our trash off ourself. Thankfully we had a dump a few minutes down the road from our house. Stella is sooooo cute. Love seeing her appear. Lol. Omg yes, it's so tedious unpacking in a new space trying to figure out where everything can go.
Oh wow that’s crazy y’all don’t have a trash service. We would be stopping at the dump everyday 😅 glad it’s close by for y’all !! Oh man I can only imagine the struggle!! 😵💫 you never realize how much you have until you move it & try to fit it into a new space! 😅
Ashley, I do most of our shopping at Aldi's and what has helped us is bring a cooler! And reusable bags. But the cooler is awesome. Hope you have a wonderful day.
Wow Ashley what a transformation, a suggestion for your old towels you can donate them to a animal shelter they use them for bathing dogs also you can cut them up for cleaning rags
Your getting there girl ❤ so sad about your picture frame & that poor Yoda but that was😂😂 do you miss carpeting? All of those floors would make me nuts I'm a carpeting girl😊
Everything looks like it's coming together. It's wonderful that you will be donating things to shelters. I can't wait to see what the final product looks like when everything is done. I hope that you and your family are doing well and liking Virginia so far ☺️❤️
I am a minimalist who, in retirement, has collected and kept ‘stuff’. I’m starting to declutter, and we are so fortunate to have a soup kitchen here and food pantry. Both groups also do so much for the homeless and those in need. I give them everything my children don’t want. Did you say you would be moving in another year?
I watch your videos for cleaning motivation to clean to today but I am all sore because I went riding on my horse but I all most got bucked off my horse so I am all sore but I am glade I have you to motivate my self to get up and clean ❤❤
It's looking amazing, Ashley! You're doing a great job! When everything is put back together & all clean, you'll feel more like normal & can get back in your routine! Have a great day! Thanks for sharing! ♥️☺️🐾🐾🦉🍄🧵🪡🖌🎨🖼📚✨️
I was surprised you didn’t keep any boxes for your next move!!! I have only moved once and I barely had anything. As I look around now I would dread moving out with all the added stuff🙈
I hate that the area of Texas you lived in didn’t have recycling. I live in Texas in a small town and even we have recycling bins, plus homeless shelters. It’s a real shame that Odessa doesn’t have them. On a personal note; I think you are a phenomenal mother and I love how your children have such big hearts. Well done on you and your husbands part! ❤your channel!
I have floating hair everywhere. In my bathroom drains, on the carpet, in the moving joints of my Robocop, hanging from my fingers. U name it. And its only me! Feeling your pain.
Your story of Yoda running into the sliding glass door cracked me up. We have a story of our old cat years ago when I was little doing that. She had a bell on her collar and so the story is that all we heard was jingle jingle jingle boom! 😂 16:22
I would LOVE a little robot vacuum like that. We have no carpet either and I'm telling you, trying to keep my floors clean is so hard, especially with two big dogs and one being a husky going in and out...ugh.. there's SO much fur and dirt. 😂
You should get an envelope in the mail for the "Fill A Bag for a Vet" with a date on it for pickup here in the Hampton Roads area. It makes it super easy to get donations out in our area and it can be more than 1 bag. Usually comes monthly and I have challenged myself to get something out each time this year as we hope to move out of VA soon (recent retired military fam).
Thank you!! He did come but he was clueless 😅 they sent a handyman who didn’t know much about plumbing. So we still have a leak and he said he will get a plumber to come take a look cuz he wasn’t sure lol
❤😊 hey Ashley I'm new to your channel my name is Katie and I just wanted to apologize and say I'm so sorry for everything you've gone through with the moving and with the movers how they just treated you guys crappy no one should ever have to go through that but I hope and pray that everything all works out with you guys in your new home! Also I love your dog so adorable your sweet Furry Babies and it was funny that you had mentioned your dog went and ran into the door the sliding glass door LOL poor little guy❤ so I have a little Shih Tzu and we also have a sliding glass door at least our backyard my dog did the same thing the same exact thing he ran and he ran into the screen and sometimes he ran into the glass door a bounce right back off it was hilarious LOL at the same time I'm like oh nobody are you okay I picked him up and gave him my dog a hug and kiss and said you silly boy you're not supposed to run into the door . LOL but I just wanted to share that hope you guys have an amazing and blessed day and also I hope you guys have a wonderful experience in Virginia and in your new home I never been to Virginia would love to go one day I live in wonderful Rochester New York. Honestly there's nothing exciting here I lived here all my 42 years of life and it's really not all that great one day I would love to move to Virginia or South Carolina but anyways thank you again for sharing your channel hope you have an amazing and blessed day❤😀🥰
Ashley I meant to say I forgot to mention this in my first comment but I would put your gun safe upstairs in your room I know it's probably very heavy but I would not put that in the garage that would suck if someone tried to break in your garage or something and tried to steal it but it's up to you guys I guess that's something I would do but if it is in your garage and you decide to leave it in there I hope and pray that it's safe and no one tries to get it or take it or anything❤🙏🏻
We signed a one year lease for this rental so we have to stay in it at least that long. But that will give us some time to settle in and see what area we want to live in and we’re hoping interest rates will come down a bit. 🥰
I haven’t made one yet. But I’m loving it here so far. The weather is so nice and it actually rains! Haha we also have our family right down the road from us so it’s been really awesome living here. But I’m not going to lie, Texas was amazing too. Cost of living is a lot cheaper .. housing wise & utility bills so far 😅 but we will see how it compares as we get more settled in.
In the UK we take our own shopping bags as free bags are not a thing anymore so if you need 10 thin carrier bags you have to pay for them, I use Aldi's big bags as they are strong and hold a lot, I've noticed in the USA that they give you carrier bags for everything !! 😵 (not good for the planet) that's why they are a no no now in the UK. So maybe you can start a good trend and always take your own shopping bags whenever you shop for food, clothes etc. 💐

I spent five weeks cleaning out my storage room in my basement and got rid of a ton of junk and it looks brand new
Way to go!! That’s amazing!! 👏🏼
It’s coming together. I think we can all feel the relief and joy for you
Definatly !! 💐
I'm so glad you are getting settled in and getting the unpacking done. I know that is such a huge relief! Also I love the countertops and backsplash. I think it is beautiful. I would never have thought to put those together, but the blue in it is really striking!
Hi, from Michigan! Just found your channel. Congratulations on your new home! Looking forward to all your videos!
You're getting there. It seems like it takes forever to unpack and get settled but you will get it done eventually. Have a great week!!!
We fill up a trash bag so fast in a day, but we have to take our trash off ourself. Thankfully we had a dump a few minutes down the road from our house. Stella is sooooo cute. Love seeing her appear. Lol. Omg yes, it's so tedious unpacking in a new space trying to figure out where everything can go.
Girl both of my bathrooms only have the one cabinet under the sink and no linen closets if you could imagine the struggle of where I keep stuff. 😅😅
Yes, the hair balls on the floor 😂😂😂
Oh wow that’s crazy y’all don’t have a trash service. We would be stopping at the dump everyday 😅 glad it’s close by for y’all !!
Oh man I can only imagine the struggle!! 😵💫 you never realize how much you have until you move it & try to fit it into a new space! 😅
I started my own house cleaning business last year here in Portland Oregon.
Ashley, I do most of our shopping at Aldi's and what has helped us is bring a cooler! And reusable bags. But the cooler is awesome. Hope you have a wonderful day.
I enjoyed watching your daily activity at home. Everything looks clean, my friend. Great job, success👍🙏 17:27
Thank you so much!!
Considering all you’ve been through with this move it’s so nice to see that it’s turning into a comfortable home for your family 💝
Thank you so much!! 💕 so happy things are calming down!!
Wow Ashley what a transformation, a suggestion for your old towels you can donate them to a animal shelter they use them for bathing dogs also you can cut them up for cleaning rags
I was going to write the same thing. They San also take sheets and blankets.
Your getting there girl ❤ so sad about your picture frame & that poor Yoda but that was😂😂 do you miss carpeting? All of those floors would make me nuts I'm a carpeting girl😊
Everything looks like it's coming together. It's wonderful that you will be donating things to shelters. I can't wait to see what the final product looks like when everything is done. I hope that you and your family are doing well and liking Virginia so far ☺️❤️
You could get an IKEA cabinet for on the top of our stairs for sheets, towels🤔
I love the sliding glass door, the backyard is so nice❤❤

I love what you do and I love your new home and I like what you’re doing🎉 and I hope I will like it

Here in British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦 garbage pick up is once a week and recycling pickup is once every 2 weeks so I totally understand what ur saying
Hi Ashley you have to keep those tracks clean, I laughed at you talking about Yoda running into the sliding door. Birds fly into mine all the time.
Hey Ashley did you get your stuff back yet? Love you
I was surprised you didn’t keep any boxes for your next move!!! I have only moved once and I barely had anything. As I look around now I would dread moving out with all the added stuff🙈

Yoda looks fit and trim, glad to see a healthy pug!
I have floating hair everywhere. In my bathroom drains, on the carpet, in the moving joints of my Robocop, hanging from my fingers. U name it. And its only me! Feeling your pain.
Great video Ashley enjoy your day 💖
Thank you Valerie!! I hope you have a wonderful Sunday! 💕
Coming together ❤
Use those hand held steamer for your sliding doors in the cracks. It works.
Great idea!! I’ll do that next time!
Looks great, one box at a time. Take care and stay safe. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Your story of Yoda running into the sliding glass door cracked me up. We have a story of our old cat years ago when I was little doing that. She had a bell on her collar and so the story is that all we heard was jingle jingle jingle boom! 😂 16:22
Wow. Ashley is still unpacking stuff
I would LOVE a little robot vacuum like that. We have no carpet either and I'm telling you, trying to keep my floors clean is so hard, especially with two big dogs and one being a husky going in and out...ugh.. there's SO much fur and dirt. 😂
You are amazing. It is looking so good 💚💚💚💚💚💚
Thank you so much!! 🥰
I just have to say that most cities in Texas do have recycling. Odessa is just one smallish city that apparently doesn't. 😁
You should get an envelope in the mail for the "Fill A Bag for a Vet" with a date on it for pickup here in the Hampton Roads area.

We really appreciate you you are a good person ❤❤❤I love watching your videos are awesome ....
Awe thank you!! Really appreciate you saying that. 🥰
Most hardware stores carry glass and can cut you a new piece for your frame😊
Wow you’ve made so much progress!! Did the repairmen ever come?? ❤
Thank you!! He did come but he was clueless 😅 they sent a handyman who didn’t know much about plumbing. So we still have a leak and he said he will get a plumber to come take a look cuz he wasn’t sure lol
Thanks for this motivation I’m currently in packing mode and in not looking forward to un packing at all 😂
Good luck!! 😅 I feel ya haha
Hi Ashley, gob job, blessend ❤

So will you be staying in the rental when your other house sells or you going to buy again I was just wondering as your unpacking everything ❤
We signed a one year lease for this rental so we have to stay in it at least that long. But that will give us some time to settle in and see what area we want to live in and we’re hoping interest rates will come down a bit. 🥰
I wonder how do you like living in Virginia vs Texas, maybe there’s video on that that I’ve missed?
I haven’t made one yet. But I’m loving it here so far. The weather is so nice and it actually rains! Haha we also have our family right down the road from us so it’s been really awesome living here. But I’m not going to lie, Texas was amazing too. Cost of living is a lot cheaper .. housing wise & utility bills so far 😅 but we will see how it compares as we get more settled in.

So maybe you can start a good trend and always take your own shopping bags whenever you shop for food, clothes etc. 💐
I do need to start doing that! But I reuse my bags for my bathroom trash cans & to scoop my cats 💩. I try to reuse them 🥰
Yes I did aswel for many years when they were free. 😁
The random finding your chapstick and putting it on is so me lol 😆
Hi Ashley always good to See you're doing an Amazing job, why your husband & kids Not helping you unpack? No harm just Curious 💚
🌞
Beautiful looks good
Your son falling into the pillows just melted my heart 😊 1:35
🥰🥰🥰
❤❤❤❤
I don't mind the unboxing if I can take my time at it...I hate the moving of furniture and all because we usually do it ourselves...
Oh man, yes moving furniture is awful when you do it yourself !! 😅
I love kiss from Portugal ❤❤❤❤❤
❤
I thought you decluttered before you moved? You did get a beautiful rental.
I did!! 😅 I thought it was going to be enough, but it wasn’t lol
Thank you!! 💕
Lots of cleaning and putting items in their place. Will you send the movers a list of items that were broken?
❤❤❤❤❤❤😘
Try to Do Like 3 Rooms a day Do Not over work yourself, 😀
🌺🌺🌺
I probably missed it.... did the Pokemon cards make it!?!?
We got it all back!! 🙌🏼 the bins were all busted up but at least we got them all back 💕
Why is this video so blurry?
Might be your internet?! Sometimes if it’s running slower it gets pixilated.
💪🔥💜😊🌹
💕💕💕
Trash collecing once a week is super normal
I know. But I’m used to twice a week lol
I live In the UK...recycling and general rubbish are only collected twice a month
Why are you throwing away all the boxes if you plan on moving in a year?
Have you seen how cluttered our house is! 😅 I cannot have all those boxes in the house. And most of them are super destroyed from the movers.
I like your channel, but the music is horrible. I just can't listen to it anymore. Sorry
🫎🫎🫎🫎😅 It's so cool but you will have to find a better wall for them 😂🙌 I just love them!!
There’s no good walls 😅 they’re all so low haha
