I love watching these Day in the life vlogs.. please can you do more of these ☺️… look forward to these vlogs ..🥰

[@lizfield6486]

I love a declutter series. Love all your vlogs 😊x

[@lisapaxford7973]

I totally get what you are saying…I’m in hibernation mode too and don’t want to do much…Lost and disconnected is a great way to describe it. I completely have so much I want to do but I think because I have so much I want to do it gets too overwhelming and so I don’t do anything so I am trying just to have little goals even though my mind races with ideas. Please don’t feel like you have to always reply all of the time or feel pressure to create tons of content…I personally am just happy to watch whenever you post so there’s no hurry xx

[@sharonhughes1538]

Totally agree

[@carlalappin7170]

Yup I always feel the same in January... 🤍

[@sfifa8237]

Meal planning or air fryer recipes are always good ideas 😊

[@Kate-oi6yt]

As a single mom , I appreciate all you do in your 24 hour day. When you feel a little meh with life, recall what a great mom you are and how much you are loved by your boys. It will make crummy moments easier to pass through.

Hi Carly, you don’t need to apologise. You provide wonderful, engaging and inspiring content to your subscribers FOR FREE! You don’t owe an explanation to anyone. Sorry to hear you’re feeling disconnected. Maybe it’s just the dismal weather, like you said, or maybe you could find ways to connect in person with your favourite people or reconnect with things you personally enjoy/ used to enjoy? I work remotely and although I’m engaging with people online and on the phone, my low amount of “in-person” interaction sometimes catches up with me. Wishing you well x

[@suecrawford3503]

I think January makes alot of people feel like that, its the longest month ever! Carly your vlogs are always great and I love watching them. Thanks for the cookie recipe. Primroses are outside plants that grow back every year. Hydrangeas too. Have a good week xx

[@jeanmcgugan3032]

We all feel a bit disconnected to our normal way of life after the hype of Christmas and the new year, I know what you mean when you said you don’t feel quite like yourself, that is how I am feeling just now. I heard wee birds chirping this evening around tea time so that is always a good sign that warmer and brighter days are just around the corner. You are a fabulous mum to your boys, always putting them first. Loved your shopping haul, I said to myself that I wasn’t going to buy any more gadgets, ornaments etc but I failed miserably today with a quick visit to B&M, another ornament bought, a wax melt holder and weed killer, random I know 😂 love from Scotland xx PS, thank you for the cookie recipe x

[@Debbie_Hastings]

Love you family and shopping vlogs a good variety of things you do in the holidays 👍😀⭐x

[@TheSandramclean]

Hi carly good video to watch, loved the cookies and the airfryer meal looked great, how about doing Q&A video, you need a battery for you kitchen clock 😊😊 xx

[@judimcdonnell1971]

I’ve been feeling that way too, very MEH, as Feb has started I’ve felt a little better, just exhausted after Xmas and Summer holidays (in Australia) feeling you ❤

[@barbaramcminigal9966]

Aww hope you feel better soon Carly 💕 it's difficult sometimes you have a lot going on plus your trying to do your you tube channel as well which we all enjoy but you are only one person so be kind to yourself you deserve it ❤

[@karenlavery4463]

[@Susan-z5d]

Hi carly,theres alot of pesticides on berries, you might want to try washing them in distilled vinegar and baking soda to get rid of them xxx

[@cherylpritchard1873]

[@Susan-z5d]

[@sarahlouisesimm3483]

Lovely vlog Carly, love these vlogs your doing x❤

[@CarlyElizabethX]

Thank you!! 😊

[@mellyh5477]

Hi i like to put my chia seeds in and leave them for a few hours or over night it softens them up so there not gritty , but this is my fav breakfast , i put walnuts on top aswell 😁

[@annmarielonsdale3947]

I’ve just bought this plant for my kitchen 😊

[@Britsishmum7695]

I’m exactly the same I don’t want to go out, would rather stay in the home and do bits to the house. I love my garden but I carn’t be bothered going out there, constantly windy like you say blowing everything about., raining, washing all round house..Give it a month, lighter nights, more sunshine and inspiration will come back. I only learnt about too good to go when we went to the carvery and all these women were cuing with their phones, many didn’t speak English but they are certainly worth following for all the bargains ! They do the same in supermarkets just before closing ….

[@siennabright6011]

Lovely vlog Carley

[@xsophiex_91]

Love your vlog I feel the same disconnected in everything lately.

[@clairelouisegibson5060]

[@paulamartin6049]

Love what u do for the boys as i have told u before not for the life of me do i understand how come u r o your own. Enjoy the boys at this age my 3 daughters r 19 18 and 16 and i ended up decorating for christmas for me they didnt care which makes me very sad ....roll on the grandkids lol . I will still decorate for easter but using what i have already got no new purchases for me .i made white choc rice krispie buns and mint areo ones for the girls on my ownsome with no litle ones to lick the bowls lol. and of course they were all so busy eating out and living their best lives to take time to eat them so now i have them to tempt me for the rest of the week. I feel your pain and now mine r at college working part time cooking for themselves doing there own washing i am feeling totally useless and very very down in the dumps and alone i see no one all day except for my youngest and off course when u r 16 and hormonal you just want to chill in your room and catchup.on your social media not sit down eat cookies and drink hot choclate and talk to your mum . Rant over carly thanks for vlog it cheered me up no end px

[@clarejohnson-graham]

I've stayed in the house a lot in January too Carly. Feel like a lot of us feel the same way. The cookies and the sausage/potato dish looked really tasty. 😊😍🥰
