I am helping to clean and organize this home for a single mom with ADHD who had a pile of stuff dumped on her front doorstep by her ex-husband before he moved to Australia, which was quite overwhelming for her. She is actually quite organized in most areas of her home and having this dumped on her suddenly created a problem as she just couldn't mentally deal with it all, so she asked for my help.

Hey Bonnie! Just my two cents.... I like the "not so hoarderish " videos too. Sometimes the trash and dirt is a bit overwhelming and it's comforting to see a more realistic mess. Also, the organizing gives me ideas on how to reorganize my own space! Keep going, sister! ❤

Thank you! I love that kind of feedback. I have actually been thinking about doing a series of videos of decluttering and deep cleaning my own home with a lot more detail about how I do it. I think it would be based off of Marie Kondo's ideas with my own twist to it. I think there are a lot of people who would be interested in that and it would help me to not feel so stressed about how neglected my house has become since starting this channel. My main focus would still be on helping people, but I think just having a video here and there to add to a series like that would be fun to do.😊

Don't knock yourself because you aren't cleaning up massive hoards. This house is what most overwhelmed moms are dealing with, not bugs and mold and huge piles of unnecessary stuff. This is real life for a lot of folks. What you do is help folks who are struggling to see how to organize the "messy" house, rather than the "hoarded" house. I loved your interaction with the homeowner over the OVEN. How to remove that day in day out oven grease. THAT is useful to know.

Thank you! I'm so glad to hear that. I am actually in the planning stages of doing a series of serious decluttering, organizing, and deep cleaning of my own home because it has become a little neglected since I started this channel and I thought it would be fun to do a video once or twice a month of my own home and how exactly I tackle each thing in more detail. There is only so much I can do at other people's homes, specifically with paperwork, etc., so you never really get to see how I would actually declutter and organize it if it were my own. I will still keep my focus on helping other people and doing my free cleanings, but have that as an extra video series on my channel for those who are interested in that. And, as an added bonus, I won't be so stressed about how far behind I am getting on my own home!😊❤ Thanks so much for your support!

I have severe arthritis, two kinds. I have been unable to do a lot of things for several years while trying to get it under control. Some days, though, I still can't keep my balance and walk, or I'm in too much pain to do any kind of steps. There are a ton of adaptive tools out there, but you may have to learn to do things in different ways. I have learned to vacuum while sitting in a rolling chair. I use my dishwasher to wash everything (dishes, decor, hair brushes) I do smaller loads of laundry and use a rolling laundry basket to move clothes from place to place. @@melodykubiak5850

I actually wasn't going to delete it because I knew there would be a whole bunch of people who would come to defend me, so it looks like she's the one that ended up deleting it herself.😄 I understand that not everyone is going to be interested in the autism aspect of me and it's not like I'm going to talk about it in every single video, but this is a brand new diagnosis for me and I thought it would be helpful for people to know sort of where I'm coming from and also that I relate a lot to some of the struggles that people have. I have always wanted my channel to be a lot about mental health and different things that people struggle with, and that includes myself, so it is weird when someone wants to point out that they are no longer going to subscribe because I talked about my autism. So crazy! Anyway, thank you for being so supportive. I really appreciate it!🙏❤️❤️

@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp You're a few years older than I am, but I've been diagnosed myself for awhile longer so when I saw that comment, my "older sibling" type of instincts kicked in and I felt like I had to say something even though I've never commented on a KZbin video before, LOL! When someone is discovering an aspect of themselves like this and it's still new, it can be even more hurtful and demoralizing to have someone say, "No, don't talk about it. Hide it away. Don't be yourself or we won't accept you." It hurt my heart that there would be even a chance you'd look at that and think you should mention it less or feel ashamed for talking about being neurodivergent.

I don’t know about others, but it’s not necessarily about how dirty a house is that I am watching being cleaned. It is about learning techniques to achieve goals in conquering my own issues that I most look for. It would be so helpful if there was focus on technique and tips added. Few content developers spend time on these areas they just show the before and after pretty much.

This mom has been through it. She went through a divorce and her husband moved to another country to be with the new woman and dumped a huge amount of furniture and toys at this apartment. Essentially leaving this mom with two homes of stuff jammed into a smaller home while she becomes a single mom to the children and he gallavants off to a new country with a “new family”. It’s a amazing that the house is in as good shape as it is. I hope this mom is in a good place now. ❤

I'm glad you are requiring the homeowner to be there. I think they should be there the entire time AND be helping. They can be decluttering off-camera, giving input about where they want things to go, and seeing all the work you all are doing. It's also good from a legal perspective to deter accusations of theft, property damage, etc. You're doing them a huge favor, doing these cleanings. You're not a maid service. Some responsibility on their part should be part of the package.

@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp 8 ай бұрын
I agree on them being there for at least part of the time. I think it would be really hard for a lot of them to be there the entire time I am since they either have jobs they need to go to or kids that need to be taken different places, etc. Plus, I actually prefer to work without them there because it makes me less anxious without them kind of hovering over and watching things. I have kind of a system down where I just get things sorted out into different categories and then a lot of the time I have them be the ones to put it away or to go through the box to decide what they are keeping and what they are getting rid of. Now, if they were off getting their hair done or going to lunch with friends or something like that while I was at their house cleaning, that wouldn't really fly.🤔😊 Anyway, that's the reason why I just require at least a little bit of their time. It's also helpful to have them there the first day so that I know what things are okay to throw out and things like that.

That’s a great idea to get the homeowner involved in the cleaning. It builds that ‘cleaning’ muscle again that they weren’t exposed to as young people or was just temporarily suspended. I recently helped an autistic friend clean one shelf in her pantry; she didn’t know that you pulled everything out of one shelf, throw away outdated food, wipe the shelf and put things back. It took us ten minutes - she was so shocked at how easy it was she has since cleaned her entire unit. Being physically there is important.

I totally agree. It's fascinating to me to realize how many people truly just don't even know how to clean or organize. I've always taken for granted that I was, not only taught some of those things, but was curious enough to figure out a lot on my own, but it really doesn't come natural to a lot of people, just as there are a lot of things that don't come natural to me. That's so nice of you to show your friend how to do that and to show her it really isn't that difficult. She is probably pretty proud of what she can do now and that's the most important thing!

That business about her ex dumping a bunch of stuff on her doorstep reminded me of this story: several decades ago, I got a job in the welfare department. One of my clients was a divorced woman who told me that when her then-husband decided he no longer wanted to be married, he drove her and their two kids to the welfare department and dropped them off. Can you imagine?? Then he moved, coincidentally, to Australia! From what I could tell, she seemed to do a good job of raising her kids, totally without any help or child support from him. In comparison, having “stuff” dropped at your door wouldn’t be as bad. But certainly not one bit pleasant or helpful. I really admire your ability to go in and help people like this woman, Mira, and the others. I’ve been wishing you lived in Minnesota!

When I started my channel, I really only knew of Auri and the big messes she would clean, so I thought I would need to duplicate that to actually do well on YT, but I have since realized she is an anomaly and already had the professional cleaning background and contacts and now has a lot of help finding those homes, so there is no way I could ever compare to that, and that's fine! I would actually rather organize than clean up huge messes and there is a niche for that as well.

I find houses which are more on the regular side easier to watch, especially when there's a bit of organising in there as well. My personal preference also steers towards shorter videos, so anything around the 15min mark. Obviously this wouldn't be the whole house then but just 1 or 2 rooms 😊

I also prefer slightly shorter videos, like 15 to 20 minutes. I have had more feedback though that people like the longer ones, which is why I started making them a bit longer. But, I guess on these longer ones, you can watch them in two or three sessions rather than all at once. Thank you for your feedback!

Thank you! It has certainly been interesting to learn how much of this stuff I do is related to the autism. I have felt guilty for so long that I am not that affectionate towards my husband. I love him so much, but that has always been a sore spot in our marriage is that I'm just not that affectionate and I have never been able to figure out why I am that way until this diagnosis. So, I feel a little less guilty about that. I still feel bad that I'm not always able to give the amount of love and attention to him as he needs, but at least I can cut myself a little slack. But I think now that I am more aware of why I am that way, I can figure out some ways to still make him feel loved and appreciated even with the way my brain is wired.🤔😊

And that's definitely what I enjoy the most. I do like the big transformations, but they also can take it out of me mentally and emotionally because I have found a correlation between the size of the mess and the amount of mental health issues there are. I don't think I am equipped to deal with some of the bigger issues like hoarding as well as I thought. I will still help anyone who needs it, but I do enjoy doing these not quite so over-the-top homes. 😊

Horder Houses might be a draw to some folks but I like a mixture as sometimes Horder houses are too overwhelming/busy and its hard to focus as there's so much. I have some questions. When you are cleaning and organizing houses are you vacuuming as you are moving things and we dont see it? I sometimes see you dust dusty areas with a microfiber cloth and there's dust that goes in the air? Im just thinking about your lungs as dust and exposure to mold and other things can irritate and cause lung problems. I'd also encourage wearing gloves when doing any part of a bathroom as this is a high area for germs that can cause health issues. I write these questions as what you are doing is such a great thing and I dont want you to get sick. I look forward to more videos and it's so wonderful what you do. And it will help me get things back in order after a week of being sick. 🙂

Thank you for your kind comments and questions. I'm sorry your plans were foiled by getting sick. That's the worst! I hope you are well now and can get back to it. As for your questions...I don't usually vacuum until the end. I do try to wear a mask in situations where I know there is mold or mouse droppings, etc. that could get me sick, though I don't always wear one when I'm dusting, but I probably should when it's a thick layer and it gets stirred up. I almost always wear gloves, especially in bathrooms. Was there a part of this video I wasn't wearing them in the bathroom? If so, I don't remember, but I generally do. Thanks for your concern! Good luck getting things back in order!!😊

I've been watching some of your videos without commenting but now I think I'd like to say some things that apply to ME. When I was younger I kept my house so clean, despite working full time. When my parents aged and couldn't do cleaning, yard work, etc., I did it and my own home and yard as well. I organized, I cleaned...no problem. And then I got older, my stamina decreased--what I used to be able to do in 20 minutes was taking more like 2 hours. My muscles tired first....and then my brain tired. When my husband passed away---we had been together more than 54 years and married more than 51 years. I didn't realize how those little conversations together, those "what do you think about this? Should we toss this? Should I buy this?" were really NOT little small talk conversations but rather, affirmations--it was OKAY to toss this or to donate that, we wouldn't need to save it "just in case". Now, without those conversations, those thought-out decisions about what the right thing to do would be, I just put things in a corner to decide about "later." It started so simply, so small. Before I realized it, there were more of those things, more corners filled. That one little pile that I couldn't make a decision about had become multiple piles and the decisions to deal with them became impossible. What had become of the woman I used to be? The one who dove right in, made decisions, took things to the thrift store, threw things out? I don't know, I'm still trying to find her again. Never in a million years did I think I would be in this situation, never. So please, before you criticize the people this wonderful woman helps, please know that one day it could be you too...just like it became me. Be kind because we are hurting enough for you and ourselves. Instead, watch and give thanks that you're not in the same position...at least not yet. Please, do not criticize Bonnie--she's DOING while the rest of us are watching. And Bonnie, please keep shining your light.

Your comment made me cry. You could not have timed it any better. The video that I'm working on right now it is all about how to help a friend or family member who might be struggling and I will be talking a lot about my friend, Tisha, who suddenly had her world turned upside down with multiple health issues all at once and is not the same person I knew 3 years ago. She's having a really hard time coming to terms with her new reality. She just sent me a text that sounded very similar to what you just wrote. She never in a million years would have thought she would be in this situation. Life is tricky like that. We can't predict what the future holds and when something traumatic or life-altering might happen to us where we are suddenly the ones who need some help. Even if it's not suddenly, but just with aging, it's hard to accept that you can't do the things you used to be able to. Or losing a spouse and not having your partner there to help you make those decisions. People struggle in so many ways and those who jump on these videos to criticize or condemn theses strangers whom they know very little about may very well find themselves in a similar situation someday with no one to help them because they have been so unkind. So, thank you for yet another reminder of how quickly things can change and we will all probably find ourselves in a situation where we need a little help.❤️❤️❤️🙏

I'm at about 24 min into the video now, you were talking about working hard and having difficulty relaxing, I'm wondering, sometimes I need an activity to relax but it's still sort of mindless. Could be watching tv, playing a game, listening to a podcast, doing a puzzle. Then its easier to calm down than if I would just sit and close my eyes (in some situations). It's really hard to relax when you are actually *trying" to, because there's more tension to trying. There's a game I've been playing every now and then over the years that really helps me when I feel like I'm in a burnout. Toontown Rewritten, and its free :) no ads or hidden fees

I love your videos. This one was truly inspirational. I love to clean and organise as well. I hope your husband and daughter are feeling better. I also hope this lady and her children go on to have a happy life. Please do not take any of the negative comments to heart. They are not worth it. These negative people want to drag us down to their level. I simply refuse to play their stupid mind games. Thanks from Canada.

Thank you so much! Yeah, I am getting better at just brushing off negative comments. It upsets me more when they are negative towards the homeowner. I remove those immediately.

Thank you! I have actually been thinking about doing a series of videos of decluttering and deep cleaning my own home with a lot more detail about how I do it. I think it would be based off of Marie Kondo's ideas with my own twist to it. I think there are a lot of people who would be interested in that and it would help me to not feel so stressed about how neglected my house has become since starting this channel. My main focus would still be on helping people, but I think just having a video here and there to add to a series like that would be fun to do.😊

Don’t worry about having a huge transformation, this is more of what I’m used to. I enjoy watching MMC and Barbie. All the bugs in Barbies videos creep me out.

I'm so glad! I guess I have just felt like it needs to be a big transformation in order for it to stand out on KZbin because there are so many cleaning channels where they clean up messes that aren't really that terrible. But, I guess most of those they are cleaning their own homes, so I guess my Niche will be helping other people with their homes, especially those who have mental health struggles or just a tough situation that they are dealing with. Thank you for your feedback!
