You did a great job on this video. I really enjoyed your opinion ☺️ My kids were in a strict city school, we now live in a small country town and the school is soon much better!!! My daughter has a few funny quirks that make daily life a challenge sometimes and I can understand how you feel there. I think you'll do a wonderful job home schooling 🎉 I can see your passion. Are you interested in Montessori at all? Thanks for sharing ❤

Aww thank you, I’m glad to hear you’ve found a better school. Oh bless her, I feel you ❤️ yes I love Montessori, I’ve tried a couple of things in the past with Dexter (Montessori activities) but he just seemed to by pass it then but I may try again now he’s a bit older. I love the idea of them doing more for themselves and learning life skills ❤️

Please stop saying you can't be bothered to do things, that's not true, you can be bothered you just don't have the energy. I too have ME/CFS so I know how difficult it is, instead of saying I can't be bothered I say, I will sort that when I have a bit of energy. It sounds nice to myself, and I'm looking out for myself.

What helped me learn to let go of what doesn’t fit was a comment by someone online (probably Facebook) where they said (I have to mention that I really love the KonMari Method and she says you should keep what sparks joy) that the cute clothes that were too small don’t only spark joy, they also spark sadness as you regret how you don’t fit into them anymore every time you see them. Maybe this helps you, too. Clothes are meant to work for you now, make you happy now, not some undefined time in the future or the past (as I said before in my other comment). Hope this is useful. xxx

I have started getting in the habit of letting anything go that doesn’t fit because for years I believed I would lose weight and I never did so I realised I will buy new cute clothes if I ever do lose weight. That was my stance until recently because last year I actually did lose 9kg so now I am keeping some favourites as I have actual hope of fitting back into them but it’s mostly sizes I recently outgrew, not really my goal weight. As I weigh 119kg and wanna get down to around 75kg. But it’s been proving very hard this year so I need to get back to my diet. Or in sizes, I used to be size 10-12 and now I’m a 22. 😔 I have lost 9kg but I haven’t lost a dress size yet aside from my bra circumference which has become one size smaller. 😊 I would recommend that you let go what doesn’t fit you now as you’re supposed to feel happy in your clothes now not in the future or the past. And it’s fun to get to buy new clothes once something has become too big.

Your birthday seems like a great day :) I wish for days without stress, too. With baby clothes I am in the happy situation to have little cousins. I enjoy seeing them in my kids old clothes. This colorful little jumper: we had the same ❤ What comes back in good condition isn’t that much. But I wish for a third baby, my husband doesn’t. I KNOW I should get rid of the clothes and only keep a vacuum bag of keepsakes, but… I loved being pregnant and having babies. My body coped with it very good, I was really healthy, the deliveries actually were positive experiences. But it’s something you can’t find compromises on. 2.5 kids is not possible. Now most of our baby clothes is still at my brother-in-laws home but his wife and me want to get it sorted soon. She struggles with fertility and hopes for a second child but as she had a very difficult first pregnancy (the baby had to be born at 32 weeks to save her) and the risk rises as she gets older (already 40)… well, it’s a difficult task for both of us. I feel for you. We had the opposite with sizes. EVERYONE told me I wouldn’t need the smallest size, because a bit bigger is OK and they wouldn’t wear it that long. My son actually LOST his onesies over the shoulders when we got home and my husband rushed to the store to buy a few tiny newborn clothes 😂 He wore them at least 2-3 month. My daughter grew a bit faster but both were really small as newborns (but healthy).

It’s hard isn’t it. Especially when you do want more babies and making agreements with your partner is tough when you both want different things. Hugs your way. My pregnancy and delivery were both rough.

My daughter is the same age as your son (4 since February) and for us the „boxing away“ only works if she (and her big brother, almost 6yo) make the decision. For the last year she learned to really think about what she wants to keep and what we can pass on. If I just pack it up I am sure they will ask for it a year later. If I can say: You decided to let it go - it’s OK, but if I just decided it’s a horror. I made the experience with some clothes that really were too small. Since then we decide together. Even with damaged clothes. I say: „look, this hole is getting bigger and bigger. Do you want to toss the dress now or the next time after you’ve worn it?“ They somehow say goodbye in between and toss it the next time without hesitation. Often I will show them a basket with suggestions. Things I don’t see them play with or books they never ask for anymore. Often they will take 1-2 things out of the basket but are okay with passing on the rest. Of course,it’s slow but my father one day gave away all my stuffed animals without asking (yeah, they often were all over the floor, but this day they actually were in their cupboards!). I still mourn some of them. I like how a hoarder’s heart declutters with her kids since after the first big clean out. For her as a hoarder it’s important to make the decision herself and so she wants that the kids also learn to do it. I think about boxing stuff away they want to keep but never use - because it’s just in the way. Maybe they will notice themselves that they don’t miss them.

This would never work for dexter unfortunately, not just yet anyways. I’ve tried asking him if there are things he would be ok to part with but he wants to keep everything. I’ve noticed when I box up the things he never bothers with he doesn’t notice they’re gone and if he does he asks for them and I get them back out. It’s just the way the currently works for him. I’m hoping one day as he continues to see me letting go of my things that I can involve him more as it’s definitely important to me for him to be able to do it one day. I struggle to let go of my own things let alone declutter his things too, so I definitely do hope that one day he will have the understanding and ability to do it himself. He’s just not there yet. He’s quite good with things that get broken though and tells me this needs to go in the bin now, I think because we’ve always binned broken things and now it’s just a normal things to do for him. ☺️ hopefully it will rub off on things he’s not overly fussed about too. I’ve also got him to sell things at the door to people and he gets to keep the money and buy something else he actually wants with it. I’ve found that quite helpful too. He also chose to give away a book he no longer wanted to his friend for his birthday. So he can do it just struggles with the majority of things still. Which I can’t really blame him because I’m the same 🙈😂

Hi stranger....how are you? feels like ages since we last spoke on here and Instagram aha. Think I sent you a couple of messages but I understand if you've been busy. I'm exactly the same as you when it comes to decluttering, like I find it so hard to throw things away and part with things I no longer use as they have value and meaning know what I mean? and even when I do throw it out or get rid of it I'm filled with regret and either go retrieve it back or just live with the regret now it's gone. I am going to start actually decluttering and getting rid of things this week though especially in my bedroom, you should see it it's a mix between tidy and organised and stuff that I've just bought and put somewhere lol. I'd like a nice fresh space around my desk area. My thinking is im going to take things down then put a few things back up and reorganize my walls a bit. I don't really show it in my vlogs as its not really what I do now aha. But I was thinking the other day I need to make a start and sort shelves out take things down put stuff back up buy new things that look nice on the walls. I think the thing is with items is we grow such an attachment to things and they make us feel comfortable then struggle to get rid or part with them when we feel like there's just too much know what I mean? lol but sometimes getting rid of things like photos on our phones or real life stuff it can be helpful and make us feel better. Make way for the new kinda thing. I had an abscess that grew thanks to an infected tooth a couple of weeks ago. I have not been looking after myself or my teeth past few months and been filling my face with sweets, chocolate, crisp, pop etc and not caring about my gums or teeth due to depression and anxiety and tiredness. So went to bed one night and next morning woke up with an abscess right side of my face and people in shops said it looked painful, it was!. I was going to leave it hoping it will go away and sort itself out, but I was actually really close to throwing up that morning as I accidentally swallowed some puss in my sleep, its basically poison isn't it, one morning I felt weak, got tingles, hot flushes and that feeling you get just before you do actually hurl, but I managed to stop myself thankfully, went back to sleep woke up and i was fine but the abscess was still there. So I made myself a dentist appointment for the same day think it was I've no idea how long it had been growing for. I hate the dentist so much i was full of fear and anxiety. It was a friend who urged me to go, I took my sister as had nobody to go with as other siblings were at work and my brother has moved out now to live with his girlfriend and he works to. Got to the Dentist had the tooth out after pointing out to the Dentist which one had been causing the pain and had it out. Honestly they were super super friendly and nice and he kept saying to me i was doing a great job and nearly done, i was close to asking the girl who was next to me to hold her hand as there was a lot of pressure on my gums and teeth but i was OK I had the TV to watch above me lol. I closed my eyes for a few minutes but i couldn't feel a thing as my gums were numb thankfully aha. I had a tooth ache and pain for a few days after but now the abscess has gone there is no more pain. They said it was a bad tooth to. Just need to look after my teeth a bit more which I'm doing and not fill my face with loads of sugary stuff lol. I have anxiety and depression so i know how you feel with anxiety. Stops us from doing stuff but sometimes just got to kick it in the face and do what you want to do and not let it stop you!. My Instagram messages are always open if you fancy a chat. I'll try get rid of stuff without getting it back again haha. It kind of needs sorting and doing to be honest. Keep going with yours though looks like your doing a fab job!. ☺

Depression definitely takes over sometimes like theres days where you just want to stay in and not do anything be a couch potato lol. Finding something to occupy your mind is good to even if its evening walks which i go on every single night and sometimes talk to people to which I find so beneficial to me, I kind of get a great feeling talking to people especially when I walk away haha makes you feel actually included in society its so good. I'ts OK aha always here take your time. I'm tired at the moment, trying to get as much rest as possible before going out to do videos. Got a few written down im looking forward to doing this Summer. My channel has been doing so well lately just need to keep being positive and keep the faith which I've been following within myself, like I can do this I know I can and not listen to my anxiety or depression and just do it. My other brother is expecting a baby with his girlfriend to, its due October so either on my birthday or his. I'm going to be an uncle or is it nephew? I dont aha. Either one of the two. How you coping with the little heatwave we are having at the moment? you ready or doing anything for Summer? ☺

@@peter_robinson thank you for always being so understanding Peter. I’m glad you got the tooth sorted!! I love Toy Story too, the 3rd and 4th always make me cry haha dexter loves the 3rd one. It’s great you’re getting out and talking to people. You’re so brave, I struggle with that a lot. You inspire me though :) I’m glad your channel is doing great, you put so much effort into it and you deserve only good things :) it’s good to take breaks and rest too, I’ve been trying to do the same lately with everything going on etc Not coping with the heat at all 😩 feel bad for moaning, it’s nice to have some sun but gosh there’s just no air at the moment. Dexters not been a fan of the heat either, he’s been super grumpy bless him. How are you coping with it? Nothing particularly planned for summer, avoiding people as much as possible hopefully lol it gets so busy here and makes me feel like I don’t want to go out even if I have the energy too, going to try and find some quieter places to go when we can. How about you? :). Xxx

@@Livingthefreelife it's OK aha need more people to be understanding these days instead of people judging etc. Been there myself with a certain someone I used to talk to. Think I've mention her to you before, I actually went to the police about her it got that bad they said to go back if she carries on. She tried contacting me today after I blocked her for good because I know I deserve better than her and what she did to me, I blocked the number as Knew it was her. There's not is there aha. like we are kinda suffering but in a good way lol, kinda need the sun though makes us feel good and the Vitamin D. Aww thank you aha, I try my best its more my confidence these days I think is whats driving me and pushing me to become better than myself even though I am just myself I dont intend to be better aha. I dont think people realise how much thought and planning goes into my videos there's so much thinking, planning and editing but I enjoy doing what I do so thats important. I dont focus on the numbers I just put creativity into each video and put it out. I dont think about views when I'm filming or ever really. I know some want popularity and its kinda sad to think about. Nothing much planned other than get as many videos done and up as I possibly can while taking breaks inbetween filming to so I dont completely burn myself out, we dont want that us content creators do we aha. It's important to think about yourself which im doing more of and having self care shopping days. Currently back in my Lego era aha been buying a few sets I say a few, a lot of sets from my local Smyths store I used to go to with my mum. I've always loved Lego. Just finished Building the Lego Kingfisher bird set I'll send you a pic on Instagram when you check it it will be there. Just chilling at home this Summer and doing my videos being by the sea it gets busy and sometimes overwhelming so I often stay in I'm finding it being a bit overwhelming for me at the moment im not usually like this I just want to stay in some days aha but I know I have to keep up appearances and show my face to mother nature lol. 😅☺

Will you please stop apologising, your home is NOT a mess at all, you have a lovely liveable home. Will you please write down everything you do each day and at the end of the day look at your list. You are cooking from scratch great healthy meals, you are decluttering a lot and cleaning, looking after your son and keeping us entertained with your videos every week. I loved this video especially the clips of sorting and decluttering you have done throughout the week. I'm also enjoying the recipes you are sharing with us, the quiche looks amazing. Lastly remind everyone to like and subscribe as I'd love to see your subscription get to 1000, you definitely deserve it. Have a great week.

Aww thank you so much Sarah this all means so much to me, I’m super glad you’re enjoying the content of my videos 🥰 the Quiche was soooooo yummy, of course Dexter didn’t think so 🙈 haha but everyone else who tried it enjoyed it, considering I just threw it together too haha You’re right, I’ve been rubbish asking for like and subs, I will try to remember to include that and I will definitely sit down and write down what I’m doing, sometimes I forget how much I am managing so that’s a good idea. ❤️❤️❤️

You have so much going on, take care of yourself, stress can make CFS Flare ups. Wishing your dad a speedy recovery. Your holiday looked amazing and lots of sun. Would love to see your garden, and the cooking videos. Look forward to any videos you manage to post. Take care xx

Thank you so much Sarah, that means a lot. Yes I’m trying to keep stress minimal at the moment, it’s definitely been a bit hectic around here. I’ve managed to rest since we got back thankfully but don’t want to overdo it. We were very lucky with the weather, Dexter loved the beach as you could see. I will deffo make a note about the garden and cooking and include that in more videos. Xxx
