New subscriber here 😇 I love clean and declutter motivation videos. Everytime I see your shinny red kitchen trash can (it's uncommon but I like it 😊) I always hope you'll need to empty it as I always find it so satisfying to see any junk get discarded while cleaning and taken out from the house to feel it's fresh and less cluttered. Also because I struggle so much to toss few things that everytime I see any trash around the house get emptied/taken out I look if I see something I struggle to toss in the process haha. It's mostly nicer paper clutter like magazines, fashion/beauty catalogues/flyers and the worse for me is any old clothes that can't be donated. I usually just put those in clean bags that will stay for way too long in the garage instead of dumping them right away in any regular trash cans so I can't change my mind anymore. I'm giving away most of my clothes, so I always feels like it's not too many, but still hard to let go.

Welcome! Yes, some clutter is harder to get rid of then others. I struggle with clothes as well. I just decluttered my closet and I was proud of myself for getting rid of some pieces of clothing that I kept holding on for way to long - now wearing them, but convincing myself that I will wear them now... It's definitely a process. Hope it gets easier for you!

I love your videos like this. I typically get up around 5/5:30am. A little about me: I do work full time outside the home and have 2 school age kids about the same ages as yours. For the time being, I'm working out in the afternoon usually twice a week, I'd love to increase that in the future to more days each week. But for right now I just can't get the work out done in the am. I love to read historical fiction in the WW2 era. I also like to read parenting and mental health related books. Your commitment to this morning routine is inspiring. Side note - love the heating pad! I did injure my back about a year ago, I just twisted wrong, it wasn't major. But ever since then I put the heating pad on my back every night while my husband and I watch tv. I find it so soothing. I want to know what time you go to bed. Thanks for sharing!
@ImperfectLifeBalance8 ай бұрын
Thank you so much for sharing a little about your self!!! I love meeting other working moms here 😊 I think having a workout routine that you do is amazing. I always believe that as long it it works for your schedule than keep at it! I don't think I have ever read historical fiction - sounds intriguing. Let me know if you have any recommendations so I can try one out 😊 and yes to the heating pad! Just got it a few months ago and love it - amazing for back pain and also for cold winter mornings haha! I am usually asleep by 9pm 😅

My top recommendation is any book by Kristin Hannah. The Nightingale was the first book I read of hers so that one is special to me. But they are all so good. The Great Alone and The Four Winds are also fantastic. They all are set in different time periods.

Hi Martha! You are always so diligent and hardworking. Your kids have grown a lot. It feels like just yesterday when they were tiny in your videos. I was wondering if you could possibly share some insights on Parkinson's Principle and how you manage your time effectively to ensure each activity doesn't drag on forever.
@ImperfectLifeBalance8 ай бұрын
Thank you so much! Yes, they grow up so quickly! And yes, I am making a note to address that in one of the upcoming videos. In general, I found that I have to set time limits for my tasks. Especially those that I know I tend to procrastinate about or one that I know it's easy to get sidetracked with. I also try to batch similar tasks together. That helps me stay focused and efficient.

Hi, I do 8 laundries per week. 2 on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. I di not do it in the weekend and on Wednesday because my hubby works from home and can't stand repetitive noises. I do 2 darks, 2 light coloured, 1 white, 1 bedsheets (I alternate kids and ours), 1 for towels (every 4 weeks I add one extra for bathrobes) and 1 colored for my husband. Sometimes 1 have to add one extra for night incidents. So in a very unfortunate week I can get 10+... 😅 if I get even some delicates (which of course I try to avoid).
