Whenever Im sleepy, lazy and overwhelmed with chores I go to your channel and watch for a bit. You are a motivation and inspiration. Hello to you and your beautiful family from the Philippines.🥰

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Well thank you and thanks for following along.

[@sharlajohnston6105]

​@@kathleenvigliano9642Really?? That's so private ...

[@NogginsVintage]

Me too, I always feel like sorting my house after watching a vid

[@cynthiafisher9907]

@@sharlajohnston6105Yes, it’s private, but this woman seems to have an actual need and is reaching out for help. It’s not ok to shame her if that’s the case.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

@@kathleenvigliano9642I think it boils down to realizing the other things need to be built on your marriage, not the other way around. It’s very easy to give everything to the kids and keeping the home, cooking, etc, but when it comes down to it, you only have so much energy. Just like Lisa was saying about spending your time and energy on less important things, like making a list, it’s better to spend the same time and energy to just get the important task done. Just like you know it’s more urgent to feed the kids than to vacuum the rug, it’s more urgent to have a time of connection with your husband than to do a lot of other things. Husbands are usually able to overlook a lot of other things that haven’t gotten done if they are fulfilled in their connection to their wives and that often starts with time alone in the bedroom. Another issue may be that a woman doesn’t save time and energy for intimate time with her husband because there are problems associated with her relationship with her husband. In that case, I would greatly encourage seeking out a Christian counselor, and don’t stop seeking until you find a good one that helps. If your husband won’t go, go yourself.

[@juliea4365]

The struggle is mostly that I always have at least 1 child saying my name & needing/wanting something or needs help. It's hard to even have a complete thought without being interrupted let alone get a taskfully completed without forgetting what I was doing bc I was interrupted so many times or just discouraged bc it then feels never ending.

Sis tell me about it. But there is gold at the end of the rainbow with our patience and love...there is better days ahead.

[@angelahagood3639]

While reading through the comments section, you realize that we’re more alike than we think. So many subscribers from around the world and they have the same stuff to deal with. So thankful that in the rush of life that you give us glimpses of how it’s okay that the house is “clean enough”, that the laundry is caught up, and we’re eating supper together. My prayers go out to you and ALL busy mamas everywhere! Those roasted veggies looked delish!🙌🏻🫶🏻

[@Csigalak]

I really love the new snippets we’ve seen of Lisa in the last few videos, like sipping coffee or kids all on her, baby on the floor etc. It’s so heartwarming! 😊

[@Just-Nikki]

Oof, you’re speaking right to me today. I think I spent about 20 minutes putting stickers in my planner last night and I stopped myself because some of the stickers were for things I’m not going to forget to do, like a sticker of a toothbrush. I’m 50, I don’t need a reminder for that!

[@LargeFamilyHomestead]

We all have these struggles. Over my years, I've learned to track my time and hold myself accountable. I keep a list for every day, week and month of what's important. ♥ Thanks for the gentle reminders - you are a blessing. 🤗

[@holliwaller2774]

I am really enjoying your last few vlogs. I work outside the home, mom of 4 and homestead. I often have the feeling that I'm not doing a good enough job at any if these, not getting enough done in any place. I fight that constant guilt bc I know deep down, this is a journey and I'll never reach a place where I feel I've accomplished enough in any arena. Your videos are such good reminders that that's not the goal. That's its normal to never have the laundry done or the house actually cleaned up enough, oetc and that it's supposed to be a life long process. And we have to enjoy the process instead of focusing on getting a certain thing accomplished. Thank you

[@kathleenvigliano9642]

Hey! Don't beat yourself up :) you're the most important person in your children's lives. You're doing the best you can and probably more than other moms and more than you think you are! This might give you hope...guilt is a mean, toxic feeling. I pushed that out of my repertoire long ago and hope you do too! You'll feel better.

[@saradandridge]

I REALLY love that you left the audio of you moving around the kitchen in for this video! I watch your channel, as well as a few other similar channels about homemaking/simple living and I'm always finding that my own home doesn't feel quite as peaceful or idyllic or calm as the videos. It began to make me feel like I was missing something or my mindset wasn't right. But NOPE, it's just the sound! My kitchen gets so LOUD with the sounds of dishes going into the sink and the bowls bumping each other and the sound of frying. Of COURSE it's not gonna feel the same as the videos I watch on KZbin with no sound and relaxing music playing, making everything feel so calm and quiet and relaxed. This video gave me a freaking epiphany, as obvious as it should've been before. So THANK YOU. ❤❤❤

[@swisschalet1658]

If you have a tile floor, adding a scattering of task rugs around, hanging fabric curtains or honeycomb shades on all the windows, adding a large wooden chopping block or any other large wooden items onto your counter, using wooden bowls, and eliminating excess glass or tile items, can help soften the sound. Just a thought because sometimes the layout and the materials used in a space can make it intolerably loud even when you are just performing simple everyday tasks.

[@katie7748]

​@swisschalet1658 Goodness yes! We have heinous vinyl "wood pattern" flooring and a vaulted ceiling in a horrid open concept floorplan (I despise all of this) so it echoes every little noise. I'm antsy to get curtains and rugs in here to help absorb the sound. I miss carpet and linoleum. And actual ROOMS...

[@swisschalet1658]

@@katie7748 yes, I'm not a fan of "open concept" either. Sorry, I do not want a television anywhere in eyesight of my kitchen...don't want to see it or hear it. I wish we didn't even have one...but my husband insists. I also don't want the "family room" blending in to the kitchen. Nope.

[@andreasmith8213]

Maybe try some sort of earbuds when you need peace. They generally cut outside sound, and you can put on your own idealic music.

"procrasticlean".....what a perfect term for a real life situation.....I really need to clean my oven.....the reason why I "hate" cleaning my oven is it's like working underneath your car in odd positions....so if Luke is still burning stuff from your old files, I'm bringing my oven over to be burned in that same pile, and calling it good....bye-bye oven....

Lisa, you amaze me with all you get done, with all the kids, the usual interruptions, etc. I loved seeing you in labor, cooking, going about your day, a home birth.

Pick it up, put it down and I'll take care of it later. 😂😂😂 I'm just picking one room at a time to declutter and deep clean and stop letting the other rooms bother me. My son says my problem is that i don't finish something before i start a new job. 16 yrs old and he's spotting this stuff and is so right. 😂😂😂 I'd rather just spend my day's in the kitchen but that can't happen. 😂

Yes, there were some days I just wanted to throw in the towel when raising my babies and being a homemaker.

I cannot wait to have a new son join our crew and I couldn’t have done better if I chose him myself. God led me down that path and he continues to bless. I promise you, it will all come back as blessings. Keep up the inspiration and spreading Gods grace.

I love how you've organized some 'go to" recipes, with ingredients that you can predict might be available at the end of the week. These "odd lot" ingredients are waste in many households but need not be, if they can be incorporated into other recipes. In my case, I've organized ingredients by flavorings: Northern European recipes tend to be creamy ones, Mediterranean ones tend to be tomato based, and there are a hole host of flavors in between. Also, you mentioned cooking with lard - an almost taboo ingredient in this day and age. I have my spouse; who does most of the actual grilling; keep all the animal fat. We then date it, and freeze it for rendering in later dishes. I call these animal butters. Imagine lamb fat, flavoring a mixture of celery, onion and garlic (all three I grow); and then stirred into left over rice; or pasta; to give any dish a French flair. Or beet leaves or Swiss chard (which I also grow) cooked in rendered pork butter; with adobo seasoning; to give tacos its own Ole! But you're right; its all in the organization. And the busier I am, the more I appreciate ideas on organization. Right now, I'm in the process of grouping spices by flavor profiles: fish, Indian, Provence and such. Currently, I reach for small boxes in my pantry; with spices grouped together. If I'm cramped for time, I'll do the cook, based on what my spouse is grilling; and we'll have a variety of ways to consume our food. Thx. for all the tips on the "business of living". Households should be run with business efficiency. It helps the family thrive.
