30 Bags in 30 Days || Declutter Challenge || Day 26

[@evelynsweeney7381]

Every time Scott is there, you smile and laugh which speaks to your marriage. Love it.

[@dorothy9618]

My husband and I laughed together every day. He died three years ago. I miss the laughter, but love watching you and Scott. What a treasure the two of you are!

[@angiew1367]

I could only imagine what Scott was doing off camera to make you smile like that! Love seeing your two together. You really light up when he is there! I think it helps you in this process too ;) Looking forward to day 27! More Scott and Sophia!! xoxo

[@lucky123missy]

Helpful advice...put the box of memorabilia in the basement with all the other ones. That way you will have them all together in one place. You are doing a great job. I am going to miss this series when it is over.

[@TheEnglishRose77]

You & Scott are a riot! :) "They're raising our taxes..." You're not a hoader, just a typical busy wife/mom. But you sure are taking control of the clutter, Sophia! Another great purge!! Yay! Please never stop filming. You're my favorite KZbinr!!

[@JazzyBabe56]

love it when Scott and you are in a vid together! you two rock!! ♥♥

[@robertagannon442]

He still makes you laugh till you cry, it's wonderful!

[@duncandy]

I loved that family photo of Hallowe'en. So precious!

[@robertagannon442]

Sophia! You have know idea how lucky you are to have so much storage area! We have a small coat closet in our hallway, a built-in set of drawers and shelves in one bedroom, and a small laundry room that used to house the furnace and water heater too, until we had them moved ( at great expense ) to the garage. That's it. No usable space in the attic. No nooks and crannies. No pantry. No basement. We have "stuff" everywhere! When I say stuff, I'm talking furniture stored in the unused guest bathroom. We want to use the bathroom, but it needs repairs and my husband and I are both great procrastinators. Furniture and miscellaneous items in our living room that don't belong there. First my oldest sister died. She had never been married. No kids, just lots of animals. She had had a business where she sold things she bought in Peru. Lots of jewelry, paintings, wall hangings, and clothing. So my parents, my other sister and I ended up with a lot of those things. After my mom died, we went through my parents house and helped my dad get rid of some things. More things we brought home. Then my husbands mom died, more stuff. Then my dad died, even more stuff. The parents were all from the Depression. Sooo much stuff. Plus our stuff, too. My sister and her husband were ok cause they had a 5,000, sq ft house. We, on the other hand, have an 1,800, sq ft house. It's so full you can hardly walk thru it and I don't know where to start. If I had areas to store things I would be so thrilled. You don't know how lucky you are. :)

[@Mysticsoul77]

The humor will make the golden years even better! My husband always has me laughing. Great job Sophia and Scott.

[@silvivargas1426]

Great job Sophia!!!! And love seeing Scott helping you!

[@mommydena]

You're definitely not a hoarder! You guys have stuff and both work full time. You get busy with life and family. Don't be so hard on yourself! 💙

[@QueenVelveeta]

Scott is a scream. Gosh, I dread it when you finish decluttering. I love these videos. Please, don't stop them.

[@kayleec780]

I love that your husband still makes you laugh!

[@lydiajohnson2084]

I can now go to bed. I must stay up to see what happens every day. Your entire family makes me smile

[@squirl6519]

As always Sophia, you amaze me!! Seeing you and Scott together makes my heart smile! This is my favorite series of yours so far. At the end of the 30 days, is there any chance you, Scott, Edward and Willie could do a video together explaining what each of you felt about the process was like, what was liked about it, what Wasnt liked about it and was it worth it?

[@robertagannon442]

Love your grandmothers purse! Keep, keep, keep.

[@colombepetite]

Great job, Sophia! Love watching you and Scott interact, he always makes me laugh. Could you put up a wall in the attic that will allow you to attach your IKEA shelves to? Then you can store your luggage, shoes, purses, etc. on the shelves. By the way, I LOVE your Grandmothers purse!

[@my2jedi]

Wow, you really zoomed through that attic! The photos of the kids in their Halloween costumes were so cute. The family photo if fantastic! I would definitely frame it for Halloween or even all year long. Scott was so funny "on the phone" about the trash. He must keep something stirred up all the time! Congrats on the huge progress! Sara

[@orsie200]

Not hoarding...stuff just accumulates in ALL homes. Great to see Scott. I married a clown too, but a sense of humor helps one through a lot. You are doing great...keep up the good fight against clutter.

[@serenitynoworganisingvanco370]

Even my kids look forward to your videos, they are 7 and 9. You are not a hoarder, just very sentimental. It could be worse! You rock ma belle!

[@chrisrules1014]

Scott's cell phone call was so funny!!! I bet he keeps you on your toes.....lol Awesome job!

[@JacquelineLP]

Your too good girl geez! Your getting things done! Spectacular! Awesome! 🙌🏾

[@janicenapoleon1911]

Good job! Did you ever think of putting drywall in the attic spaces, maybe put up those ikea shelves for the stuff your keeping?

[@cherst1031]

I made one of those T-shirt quilts from my old T-shirts. I also have a ton of my kids' old T-shirts to do the same, but I cut the fronts off and discarded the backs and sleeves in order to save space. Great job - the attic is the hardest!

[@Whisperwind333]

Sophia Never ever complain about your husband Scotts silliness it's wonderful! My husband lost his sense of humor a long time ago. You're doing such a great job and it's nice that your husband is pitching in and giving a little help. If I had big money I would replace your carpet and get you the matching furniture, you deserve it. I'm actually going through files today and yesterday.... I have a trash bag a shred box and a file box going right now.... lol.... at least to do this I can sit on my butt.... lol

[@brendarobertson2145]

Thank you again, and Scott again, we are lucky, what a good hubby and good man to help and make you laugh" totally enjoyed this video. I loved the few things that survived over years from my childhood, just perfect.

[@joannporter3882]

Lol Scott!!! He always cracks me up. I can't lie, I am thrilled that you're extending this because your videos rock!

[@margepaz]

"Let's all be horrified together." lol!!!!

[@faythem.a9230]

Scott is a great cleaning companion, LOL. My husband likes to joke around too, so humor helps in many places. I had saved lot of clothes and things from my 2 boys (5 years & different seasons apart so lots of the clothes did not get used by the youngest one) as well, but when I consolidated before we moved (a looong time ago) I ended only keeping 1 baby outfit, I think it was their coming home outfit for each of them, with one special sweater or piece of clothes. When they each had their first babies ( actually gave it to them before birth) I gave what I saved to them along with their baby book (who keeps baby books anymore??) thinking they would compare their milestones with their child and I was hoping to at least "see" a photo of their son in the outfit... I am still waiting!! sigh... They have always asked me at least a few times... when they did such & such... I always say check your baby book, I don't remember that stuff anymore! Oh well, it was kind intentions anyway. Maybe when your boys are older you will pare down even more with their baby stuff. The toys you kept are the good wood kind that any new babies can & should play with for sure! I hope you are drinking lots of water to stay hydrated in that hot attic, we don"t want to see a Sofia fainting!! LOL. hugs - Faythe

[@JulieBoeck]

Truly inspirational! I am working away slowly bur surely on my house and it seems like I need a 365 day challenge!! :) Even though it's taking awhile, the change in mindset is important and can only benefit things from here on out! Can't wait to see your next video!

[@paulao24]

Scott is so funny..Good Job Sophia 😀

[@Glory0223]

Sophia, you are having too much fun doing cleaning that attic:) Husband who make us laugh will wear us out for sure!

[@Debbiesdilemmas]

What a happy and loving family you have.😊Discard the clutter but keep the family. They're the real blessing!

[@tonpap]

It is more than obvious that Sophie et Scott are soulmates. The clutter just shows a full life. Good job Sophia!

[@susanelliott4728]

Great job, and you have a wonderful husband. Love to see how Scott makes you smile and laugh. Nice to see the two of you enjoying each other.

[@carrierothamel6805]

It is wonderful that Scott makes you (and us) laugh.....my parents were together for years and years ,my Dad did not have a good sense of humor,lucky for us kids...Mom got a double dose......I am so proud of your hard work ,you are doing great !!.....:)

[@AshleyFaulkner]

I love these video I get so excited when I see you uploaded a new one. I was a little excited when you said it was gonna last longer then 30 days. You have definitely inspired me to clean my house. I love all your videos keep up the awesome work.

[@girlycathy]

Your family is just adorable and I love your relationship with Scott! You still have such a laugh with each other after so many years!

[@sankey1988]

personally for me watching these it looks like hoarding but I'm really a minimalist. You're doing so great at going through everything, I can really see a change I your mindset when it comes to stuff. It's been obvious at various stages that you've been overwhelmed and it's been very hard for you. It's always been hard for me to understand why people hold onto things but when you started to explain the emotional attachment to things I started to change my mind. Really really well done!!

[@MarisaAndChew]

Defintely trying to not be negative in this cuz i am SOOO PROUD OF YOU for doing this!! YOu are such a hard worker i can't even begin to say how encouraged I am by you. BUT you did ask at the beginning if this was hoarding and after watching this series and all your other ones I think its NOT hoarding but more or less an addiction to things, or binging on things. I don't know how to word that so it doesnt sound horrible but I am just meaning it as when you want to organize the kitchen its all or nothing, you want to redo the bathroom its all or nothing, you did the clean with me series and you were hardcore on everything then and working your butt off sweating, then with this series we get to see the "stuff" more intimately and you have went all out on scrapbooking stuff, we see you have went all out on pens, you have went all out on previous projects like the quilting, the cross-stitch, crochet, etc. I find it really interesting since I am new to you in 2016 because there really is a lot of psychology in this. When you do something, you want to do it all, get as much as you can done so you can keep doing it all and then you move on to something else. In this video you said something like on weekends and evenings you are busy spending time as a family and going out and doing things and that cleaning hasn't been a priority and in my opinion THAT IS AWESOME!! You are giving your children and your family memories and beautiful experiences. The ISSUE seems to be with balance as like I said above you are all or nothing. I could really see you writing out a basic daily/weekly/monthly and seasonal scedule and it working amazing for you, allowing you to get things done without it being a "project" or "challenge" while still having plenty of time to spend with family and be flexible. Like I said, I am SUPER PROUD OF YOU. You are doing what most of us need to do and not just making it look good, but getting rid of the extra stuff too. I found you because I needed help being motivated and I have been extremely motivated by your videos and have implemented the "chore" list for myself and set up categories so I don't have to go into a cleaning frenzy. My house has not yet been purged BUT I am getting into a routine that allows me to take an extra 15 minutes or an hour or whatever when I am in the mood to sort a closet and do some work without it cutting into my day. I really hope you can find some balance and maybe put one of your planners to use as a SIMPLE household management binder that is flexible enough to allow for family time, and strict enough to prevent the need for massive overhauls!! Sorry for writing you a novel, again!! I just get super excited watching you!!

[@mzcabo]

Its no hoarding......its just life!!

[@oshins4524]

C C very true.... 😊

[@annecharley1133]

You're doing great! Lol . . Scott's cabaret! My hub pretended he'd got my decluttering detritus mixed up . . left the crap/recycling in the hallway and dumped the good stuff waiting to be relocated! I actually believed him too! Btw, leave the laundry trolley in the bathroom, or maybe inside the sliding attic door. It doesn't look so nice in the bedroom. Best Wishes. Nearly there!

[@nancypeteja6560]

Scott is so funny! You both make me smile & laugh! Thank you! 😂

[@cca320]

I caught the steve martin , the jerk reference, Scott is too funny!

[@melindaanne6036]

My boys were Batman and Robin for Halloween when they were younger too! So cute.

[@anitakern4138]

Haha! Scott was really believable. Too funny.

[@amyhowell4000]

Hi Sophia. So much gone! That is wonderful. Love Scott's phone call. Looking forward for the next one xxx

[@Storm2aRainbow]

WooHoo! Cant wait to see what treasures we find in there...I love your vlogs & love seeing you & Scott together makes me smile

[@lilred9483]

I got the joke Scott :) The Jerk, loved that movie!

[@TheDiana4527]

Lol, that was so great of Scott to help out. When you have someone helping you decluttering, it can be so helpful and funny at times. The phone call was funny! Sophia you have inspired me so much to get rid of stuff in the 30 bag challenge. Can't wait to start in my garage and get rid of things . Some l' m going to sell on craigslist. I've really done well selling on craigslist. Thank you Sophia for sharing what you are getting ride of.

[@reneewolf1738]

Great job Sophia! You are fearless...I have been avoiding my big project which is my basement. I plan on tackling it next month. I'm so glad you decided to keep the first costumes...they were so cute!!

[@sandyheinrich2204]

Scott makes these video's even more enjoyable! He's hilarious!

[@OurFamilyHomeLife]

LOL at hoping there was money in the bag! You are making a lot of progress!

[@angiemillar7244]

You could have grandchildren one day and a quilt made out of your boy's t-shirts would make lovely baby blankets. X

[@dublin1948]

Great job! It looks like the two of you laugh together so easily. Cute couple.

[@IBtastic]

This vlog made me smile.

[@lindajohnson6905]

I'm so glad you are going to continue your clean up videos after the thirty days. I look forward to watching them everyday. You have a lovely family and seeing you guys together is so joyful to me.

[@colleens5014]

Sophia your doing such a good job I am so glad you kept your grandmas purse.😀💕.

[@SunFlower-lp4rw]

Sandra bullock & Jim Carey ! My 2 favourite actors :) Great job Sophie.

[@grny28]

Sophia you are such an inspiration to us all, but trust me you're nowhere near a hoarder. Don't be ashamed of wanting to preserve your children's memorabilia or hang onto anything of value. We all get busy, but family outings trump spit polishing a house any day. After all, family treasures become tomorrows antiques.

[@mygreatchallenge]

+grny28 so true. Thank you!

[@lindanicholas3160]

what a lovely family you are .i love your videos.

[@harajukuloverstour]

I really enjoy Scott's commentary--classic husband banter..

[@AkeraWolfe24]

Hi Sophia! New subscriber but I have watched your videos before but your 30 bags in 30 days got me hooked! I have plans on cleaning out our two sheds very soon and it's very motivating to me to clean as I watch your videos! Keep up these great videos!

[@emilykiesling2315]

Wow you did good ! Love watching the both of you, laughter is really good in a marriage, my husband is the same .

[@MattyLuis23]

he must be so proud of you. I am. it takes a lot to persevere. I am finding inspiration in you.

[@Sissytaz]

I look forward to these videos every night. You're doing a great job.

[@imabee2010]

Man he is funny he made me laugh when he was on the phone . I thought he was going to go for more silly good fun . Hey Sophia I think you have a great family they are smart and cute bunch. Thanks as always for your being an inspiration to us here. ;)

[@luella2897]

Does Edward still like space stuff? My youngest son lives and works at Huntsville ,AL. The Von Braun Space center is there, really a cool place to visit. They also have a space camp for kids!! Yea Sophia!! You're doing a great job! Clearing out old children's clothing can be stressful, at least for me. So many memories!!

[@LeanneDickeyThibodeau]

Ya'll are sweet together :) I love your attic space!

[@cosmetica529]

What an amazing job you're doing - you should be really proud of yourself! I love you and Scott together - so cute :)

[@shellyleach3377]

[@PastelpricelessBlogspot]

You two make a good team! Another successful day!

[@mamacita41969]

nice job@ and glad you doing more than April, i have a lot to do myself, and my attic it's worst. i hope you can have some rest. thank you.

[@bettyp51]

Scott is so funny! love it when he is in your videos!

[@margaretc2015]

You go girl!!! You are amazing!

[@lisamalone5988]

I went to a baby shower once where the grandma to be had made a baby quilt out of the baby clothes of her son, the baby's daddy. It was precious and so special. Maybe keep some baby clothes for a project like that?

[@Ego-de4dt]

13:39 you guys are such a cute family. And I could squeeze both of your kids they are so so cute!!!

[@beatrizrojaslifewith3kids]

Scott is funny, you did amazing Sophia ❤

[@mariecabaneshucamis]

amazing sophia. I love watching your family on your videos.

[@hiddenmeadowfarm6585]

I can't believe you didn't keep the Ashtabula Lift Bridge t-shirt...I live in Conneaut (next town to Ashtabula)!! You guys are all awesome!

[@juliewilliams8431]

👍👍👍 great job again Sophia xxxtfsxxx

[@ConsiderMeCoffeed]

What a good job you did! My husband is the same way!

[@CutTheFat]

I think we get overwhelmed and we get into a mode where we hide things from our eyes, and forget about it. I do the same thing, my closet & storage space are full of stuff I was too lazy to ever complete going through because company came, or I was just tired of seeing it, etc.

[@mygreatchallenge]

it is more tiring than anything else and I think most people don't realize what it takes to edit and upload a video either. so April has been a rough ride for sure.

[@chimenerf]

Great Great Great 👍🏼👍🏼🍀

[@SandyzSerious]

OMG the attic!!!! You are soooooooooooooo brave!

[@JHCWillis]

You inspired me to purge more. I have bagged up many bags that are ready to be donated.

[@greenserene2676]

You and Scott are true love!

[@bluebutterfly3561]

You two are so cute and funny! love it!!

[@petranilla14]

I thought it would have been worse!!! you did good!!

[@craftcornerwithestherc2506]

Great job :) I slept in a room as a kid with an attic just like that

[@randigrandmaison6465]

great job! nice to see you have help :)

[@moniquelopez9728]

great job.... you guys make me laugh.

[@Arl79]

There is a app that I use for selling items it's called Offer Up so easy to use and it seems less hassle than eBay. Just in case you ever want to sell anything. I am still hanging in with your challenge and I am going to need more than 30 Days! The whole family hubs and kids are involved as well 😊

[@HerNameIsRio2]

Not funny Scott! I live right by Ashtabula lolol!!!! Its about 30 minutes away from me! Now that makes sense why I saw the Ferrante winery wine!!!

[@mygreatchallenge]

it s funny when you lived in Ashtabula!

[@HerNameIsRio2]

+My Great Challenge you guys probably know my whole family then! I have a ton in ashtabula!

[@BellinaSkyBright]

Well done you guys.
