Hey! I just had my baby boy 5 weeks ago. Feeding him now and I so want to start saving and budgeting but get overwhelmed. This is EXACTLY what I need. Relaxing tips will help so much as I transition from my career to a SAHM. I’m so thankful for your insight and experience along with your stories of how you raised your home with the love of God. ❤ TY!!!

I feel like my anxiety would disappear if I could just spend a couple weeks in the south with positive people like you. Why is Ireland so far away 😂

❤ sorry it's been awhile I've been going through some stuff. Moved to Indiana.

I love ASMR and homesteading and I was just thinking about how different those two things are and how probably no one likes both of those things and then I find this video😂 excited to watch more!!

I love listening to your insight! You’re an inspiration to young moms.

I love this. Will definitely relisten when I am stressed or need to chill.

This was amazingly helpful! I am obsessed with the way you talk it’s so eloquent and beautiful! Really feels like a warm hug listening to you ❤

I am a busy working mom of two and dinner is one of my biggest challenges. I will be trying your meal planning method. Thank you!

This video excellently illustrates that it’s not necessary to speak in slow-motion, elongating every word to be “ASMR-effective.” That being said, soup…hot or cold…for breakfast is a bridge too far.

Such excellent advice! Meal planning is crucial to keeping a food budget manageable, but it's been a struggle for me lately. I love the idea of having each day dedicated to a specific recipe and putting those suggestions on rotation when people get tired of them.

This is so helpful thank you! My fiancee and I don't come from money and are currently saving to buy a house and get married. We're both working two jobs and are limiting our social life over the next two years to make this happen. Hard work but the goals are worth it! x

I love your videos, Lindy! I feel like you and I live both very different lives and also wives that are very much the same. The way life worked out for me. I am a single mom of 18 month old being home with her as much as possible was so important to me. I searched for jobs and finally found one at a hospital where I work from 2 PM to 7 PM Monday through Friday and then all day Saturday. I’m blessed to have lots of help from my mother and my sister. My sister will take her all day Saturday and then I’ll help with her daughter on Sunday and my mom helps me in the afternoons so that my daughter only has to go to daycare a couple hours a day just two or three times a week. It is such a blessing and I pray I can keep the schedule going as she gets bigger so that I can homeschool her and spend all this time with her. I love all your budgeting tips off income, but I was able to make it work so I just want to tell anybody out there if you need that second income or you’re a single parent you can. I did have to pay for this type of job but by swapping childcare with my sister and doing different kinds of hours, I don’t need to pay for childcare anymore and my daughter and I are very happy to live frugally We love all the free activities. The library puts on every week as well as only asking for museum and passes for Christmas so that we can utilize those all year, Picnic dates are our favorite weekend activity! I appreciate all your videos and also your tips and tricks in this one!

Hey sweet Lindy!!! Amen Sista!! I did the same thing raising my family almost the same way…. It will pay off even if you can’t see the end of the rainbow it’s there. I also bought store brand products as well most of the time. Oh 😮 that was such a sweet thing that your son said to you….😊 when you spent the day together!!!! I know inside you felt like a job well done when see your children living the way you spent years as a mom, teacher and a role model to them and course with the help of Chris as well. It was well worth the time and effort….everything you taught them and it’s stuck in their little heads and they genuinely appreciate how they were raised with the morals and values you set. My Son❤️ is a minimalist He had the gift the poverty taught to him as well, so he has a respect for money. I was taught the same way, but doesn’t mean you don’t like nice things. Just buy them when you can afford them. That’s one of the things that I love about you and your channel the fact that you’re not pushing constant product like I see so many people on other KZbin channels doing…I am not talking about partnering up with a brands you truly believe in. I mean people are just buying and buying all kinds of stuff just for the sake of it, it’s so wasteful. It’s so refreshing watching your videos because you do not push products that I know are not worth the money. The quality 99% of the time is not there. I don’t live that way. I rather buy something better even it’s a lot more expensive if I know, I’ll use it for years one of the main things is handbags I always invest in really good handbag that I use for 10 to 15 to 20 years because I buy a great quality sometimes less is more has been my motto. This is a great inspirational ASMR video and I hope that all the young ladies and men on this channel take everything you say and think about long and hard about the education you provided here tonight. As always, Lindy it was a pleasure seeing you have a good week. I’ll be thinking about you. I hope everything is getting cleaned up after the storm hopefully they’ll get done soon.Love,Esme💕🌸🌼

I love watching your videos and just listening to your voice. Your subject matter is amazing and most important you are not a cookie cutter of the other ASMR channels. I think I could just sit and listen to you recite the alphabet! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤can’t wait for your next video! Riva

This was an amazing video Lindy! I love the tips, ideas and reminders. The presentation is so important and one I’ve been neglecting lately so thank you for the reminder

Great video, thank you 😊

Your accent is so charming

I loved the part about giving the gift of poverty to your kids. I wish my wife agreed with that philosophy 😂 Thanks for the relaxing video!

Yay! I love watching/listening to your videos while I do my classwork for my masters program. Your channel is the only thing that works for me while studying. Thanks for the consistent uploads and comfort. Much needed as I head into my third semester of grad school 💕

This was an awesome video 👏 I was wanting a bread making video and that in combination with your lovely accent makes it better 😀 The way you explained the bread making process made it sound fun

You so need your own tv show! ❤I luv ur channel 💜💕🤗

The rotary phone killed me

You're literally adorable lol, sending love from a 26 y/o new yorker surrounded by tightends her age!

Lindy, You are right! Nourishing Traditions is a great book!

I'm from Minnesota and I think it's a lot prettier down south than it is up North even in the summer I know it is in the winter.

Update!! Thank you Lindy. Guess what I’ve had a 25% improvement regarding my issues since using the facial oil I think that’s fantastic. It’s actually helping 100% more than the two medications they have me on. I wanted to let you know thank you thank you thank you Lindy!!!!❤ Like this I think I’ll probably take only a couple more months maybe to fully heal. I’m praying hard I wanted to let you know how great that is working I won’t even look look at it. I have to have someone else look at it and they said it’s improved 25% since I’ve started using it. I was so happy I wanted to let you know.❤❤❤❤❤❤

Lindy, I just read the news about NC. And flooding from Hurricane Debby!! I hope you and your family are safe!!! 🙏💜🌸I hear it is going to hit NJ In about 2 days but will just be a bad storm. It has been raining here on and off constantly here I’m kind of afraid because I’m so close to the Delaware river. But we’ll see how it goes.I hope all is well for you. If you see this let me know you’re well and everything’s OK at your home and your family are all ok.

That top is so so so cute!!

Also need to get my hands on these books. Such great stuff in them!! 🎉

Hey Lindy. This is such a great video. You know I always look forward to them!! I’m a homemaker myself, young in my marriage and motherhood and your wisdom has been to great to receive. Thanks for being such a light! ❤

This is just great and ironic bc LAST NITE, I decided to start doing a bedtime storytelling thing about some of the stuff that’s happened to me…I mean when I start thinking especially about the 80’s I miss it soooo much! Thanks for this great story and sharing your personal stories with us!❤❤❤

Yesterday I finished this thriller (The god in the woods) where a character’s surname was Stoddard. I’m not American and I don’t know how common it is over there but I was sure I had seen it somewhere, turns out it was in this video! So I had to come back and rewatch it, it was extremely relaxing the first time

Im on the coast of nc and the storm is supposed to be the worst (for us) tomorrow and i have to work a double through it then spend the night at work 😭😭 not looking forward to it.

Your voice is like a hug from a good friend. From one teacher to another, I appreciate your heart for others!!!

I love that top! So cute 🌸

i’m in south carolina on vacation right now and these storms are crazy!! but super cozy☺️☺️

Hope you do ok with the storm. I really enjoyed this. I used to live about 25 minutes from Sally Fallon's farm. It was very cool, they did classes and had a small shop. I've always wanted to do the fermented foods but haven't.

Hi Lindy! It's just very hot in Alabama. I love your informative videos.

Well hello Lindy!! My kindred spirit that was quite the video!! So much information. I did buy Sally Fallon Morell’s cookbook she has several which are excellent. So thank you for advising that author. As we know my issue is making a snails pace of recovery. I’ll tell you I don’t think I’ve ever been this depressed in my entire life, but I did make the oil facial cleanser you suggested. I am also taking apple cider vinegar every day. I did that for a long time, but I ran out so I’m back to it again, but one thing I can say about oil cleansing at night because of the medication that I’m on my skin feels like stone like its ready crack any minute it’s so uncomfortable. “SO”that oil cleanser really helps tremendously first for hydration and also actually for pain. If you have dry skin especially my skin is dry normally but even if you had combination skin or oily skin, it would still work just as well. You can put on a little more a little less depending on your skin type. The information you gave was fantastic!!! Thank you very much for that video that you did it really helped me. 😊 And Lindy as far as your advice goes, especially to 20 and 30-year-old young women I’m totally on board with that….one income living. I practiced that my entire life since I was 19 never to buy something whether it be a Home or any major purchase if you’re basing it on two incomes definitely not good idea because somebody could get sick somebody might want to be a stay home Mom I was one as well. So I always bought under what we could actually afford never based anything on two incomes. Even when I went back to worked full-time in my career. Great advice to all subscribers listen to Lindy!! Have a great week. Lindy it was great seeing you again. I miss you when you’re not on here!! Love, Esme.🌻💛🌻 P.S.One other piece of advice I have is never fall into all these fads that they’re trying to sell you on the Internet. I completely believe in finding products that work for you and stick with that whether it be make up,skincare or fragrance. When I purchase something whatever the cost may be I know I am going use it. And generally stick to it for years honestly until they don’t sell it anymore and I always stick with natural makeup. You really don’t need much and it should only take you about five minutes to do your make up if you’re spending any more than 5 to 7 minutes on make up, you’re spending too much time. better to focus on skin care and get your skin and great condition then you don’t need much make up at all…..That’s what the beauty industry is all about is to get you to keep buying every new product….and you have to realize that that’s what they’re in business to do.❤ 😊

Hi Lindy, we live in Miami,FL the tropical storm brought so much rain Saturday and Sunday we lost power for an hour. Thank you for making this informative video 😊. Stay safe!

I’m gonna be honest I don’t really really know how storms work but I live in Nebraska and we got hit with a massive windstorm last Wednesday. It was fast. It only hit us for about 30 minutes, but we just got power back yesterday. It’s 100+ degrees here and it has been miserable, but we’ve been trying to keep good attitudes. My sister and I are blessed enough that we were able to take our daughters to hotel room split the cost and they thought we were on vacation all week lol And that really helped keep spirits up, but now our power is back on. We are coming home to do cleanup The neighborhood which is going to be a chore of itself I hope you guys all stay safe down there. I don’t know like I said how storms work maybe it’s a different storm, but it’s so crazy that earlier last week that’s all we could talk about was getting hit and we did and now I know you guys down below us were getting hit. Stay safe!!

I loved this! You give the best information -the book sounds awesome. Because I bake gluten free I’ve been Using sorghum flour and I love using it and it has a nice nutty flavour.

I love this story of how you met your husband ❤

Hello my fellow southerner it’s been a while since I’ve seen any of your videos that I’m really sorry because they are really amazing and this candlemaking is something I’ve been wanting to do for years as well along with soap so I’m gonna watch this and maybe learn something so glad to see you again❤❤❤ Your friend, Christine

I would watch a whole video of candle making! I’ve tried a couple times with my daughter was born but nothing I quite right! Plus, you’re just so oothing to hear! you have so many crafts and talents!

Ah, Ashmead's Kernel is a very old English variety of apple. Nondescript appearance but lovely flavour. Thanks for the soothing account of your trip.

I would love to see a full length video on how you make your candles. I have always wanted to learn how to make my own candles.

Thanks for saving me.

I Love your style, your home, your whole life 😍😍
