I’m so glad you posted. I was worried about ya. I totally get ya feeling over whelmed. I’ve been there done that. Lack of money can put a huge strain on ya. I am thankful everyone is doing well from your alls illness. I was really concerned about Nick. I don’t think you have too much stuff. I thinking it’s being a family of 7 and you are the only female. We were a family of 4 and I was the only female. I never got a break and if you took one my mess was waiting on me. I was the maid. Everyday cleaning is never done. It can get depressing. When I get feeling like that I try to think of all the things I’m thankful for and it helps. One day your boys will be grown and gone and as hectic as it feels now those will be some of your best memories. I’ve been praying God grows your channel. Also, I put water and vinegar in an oven safe dish and let it steam. Put the oven on like 350 or 400 degrees for and hour or two. It really helps. Just make sure your dish doesn’t boil dry. Take care friend.

I'm sorry you are struggling right now and I hope you feel better soon! I just wanted to tell you how you've helped me over the last couple of weeks since I found your channel. I'm about your age but unlike you I don't have a big family. It's just me and the dog. I have pain in my body and struggle with anxiety and mental health as well as with hormonal issues. I am trying so hard to keep my house clean and organized but find it very difficult. These last couple of weeks I've found such inspiration in your videos. I watch for a few minutes then I pause and go do something around the house. Then I continue to watch before doing something else. Even when I've had no energy and just been laying in bed you've inspired me to get up and actually do stuff. I'm trying to make new routines for keeping up with the cleaning. So often I have a good day and clean the kitchen, then follows three days where I'm not very well and then the dishes are everywhere and it's so messy again. I want to be able to distribute my energy more evenly throughout the days even when I'm not very good. You're videos really help. I have a question though. What is that powder you put on the carpet before you vaccuum it? I've been trying to google and wonder if it's bicarbonate maybe? Just washed a couple rugs in the washing machine and they are still smelling a bit icky. I was wondering if what you are using is something I also could use to freshen them up maybe? Also well done on the swedish! Love from Sweden 😊

Hello Sarah, I am so sorry you have fibro. It really sucks. When we say, we literally feel pain, every second, we really do. Regardless of what we're doing, and not a lot of people understand.

You poor thing! Sounds like you’ve had an awful month so far. I’m sorry :-(. I wish I could give you a break and a big raise! ❤ I agree with you on Christmas “stuff”. I can’t stand clutter anymore either. What’s bugging me now is the waste from all the cardboard/packaging of everything these days. I’m trying to live more simply and more minimally. Maybe you could chat with your kids after Christmas and discuss how you’d like Christmas to be, and what’s stressful for you. Maybe they’d be okay with receiving some experiences, like concert tickets or events? Also the stress of having to look for and buy things is a lot. Totally get it. Hope you have a break and things improve soon! Sending lots of love. ❤

Chin up Gabby and just do what you can and use us to vent your frustrations with, we’re your friends xx

Hey Gabby, I’m sorry you’re going through this especially coming up to Christmas, the most expensive bloomin time of the year. Things can only get better love. I stopped over decorating for Christmas a couple of years ago. We have a small white feather tree and a couple of vases with lights and a small centrepiece silver tree for the table, thats it. Minimal much! 😅
