HYGGE, SNOW, BOOKSHELVES & MORE || A Very Cozy at Home Weekend

Hello, dear friends!
Landon and I were surprised with SNOW this weekend- it hardly ever snows in Portland (the weather is consistently ~mild~), so even though it was less than an inch, we found it to be super magical ✨
In other news, it’s a bit of a scary time right now as we’re in the midst of a pandemic and you are not alone if you’re feeling the fear of the world. Some of us have severe health concerns and are worried for our loved ones, others have lost their job security, many don’t have home environments in which they feel comfortable or safe to stay inside- there are so many unforeseen side affects to the Coronavirus.
That being said, I want you to know that I care about you and am hoping for the very best whatever your circumstances. Perhaps it’s a bit imprudent to say that I care about you if I’ve never even met you but I really do. In the same way that so many of you have reached out to me and told me my videos bring you positivity and light- your comments and even the fact that you’re taking the time to watch my videos brings me the same amount of positivity and light.
You see, I’ve not been feeling very well mentally lately with everything that’s going on but so many of you have reached out to tell me I’ve helped you through the same feelings I’m currently feeling, and in turn, I feel better. Let’s never lose this magic ✨ I want my channel to always always always be a source of comfort to you. I hope to always provide light even in the darkest of times.
So thank you again and again! I’m so very grateful for this community!
To everyone, I raise my tea mug!
Goodnight & many hugs,
Morgan

My favorite sound, besides Church bells & birds singing is to wake up to the sound of a snow plow after a snowstorm.

[@shannonnicolewilkinson]

Oh my gosh, I am currently working my way through all of your videos from the bottom up and you are just THE. SWEETEST. I adore you ♥️ Love, Nicole xxx

[@itbmedesiree]

I live in Michigan and snow is the norm for many months out of the year and I dont miss it when its gone...but watching this is making me miss it a little. I love watching the first snowfall of the year when i dont have anywhere to go. Obsessed with your videos. 😍

[@lizzienm9068]

Tea mug also raised to everyone! Thank you Morgan!

Lizzie Eastwood woohoo, raise ‘em up!! ☕️☕️☕️

[@andreeastiopu1831]

We do care about you a lot! You are a light! ❤️

[@squid5097]

I love how your channel is so much ray of positivity but also you keep it real by letting people know that you haven't been feeling your 100% lately. I think a lot of content creators fail to show this side of their lives, and it's nice to know that very positive channels like yours also experience struggles like the rest of us ordinary people. Thank you for the uplifting spirit. I wish you well in everything!

[@charlettecooper9457]

That was so sweet of you to say.

[@gavesus]

Thanks dear ❤️!

Hello from the city of Luanda in Angola. Just discovered your channel during these crazy year and I adore reading books a lot (it’s what keeps me sane as a mom of 3 precious sons)....thank you for your awesome vlogs and book ideas I can get from you ! Stay safe

[@lucykoenig6683]

Thank you for your kind words 💛

[@MorganLong]

Thank you for being here 💛

[@Graciey188]

I like how you talk, such a calming voice. I've been trying to convince my in-laws who lives in a different state to stop big family gatherings and they just won't listen... I really don't understand why people would take such serious issue as if there's nothing going on. I feel so mentally tired. So thanks for the relaxing video, as always.

[@MorganLong]

It's so difficult to try to convince people who would rather believe everything is fine and their actions don't matter. It's best just to focus on what you can do yourself and hope that they're inspired to do the same. Many well wishes to you and your family 💛

[@imonlylaurie]

I'm so grateful for you as well. I found your channel one month ago and I've never felt more relaxed watching a KZbin video 🌿 I find myself clicking on your older video's whenever I feel the need to unwind and relax. So thank you Morgan, thank you so much 💛

[@amandalandvlog8438]

I just finished eating Ramen before I saw what you had for dinner. Clearly, I'm going way back into your channel and loving these past videos!

This is so beautifully written, I want to save it somewhere and refer back to it anytime things become dark ✨ Please do the same-- you are a writer and your words heal and should be shared 🐛🦋✌️ 🌎✨ Big hugs to you and your loved ones 🤗 Thank you so much for your comforting comment

[@thelunafaerie]

Morgan Long Oh wow thank you so much for Y💖UR beautiful comment 🙏💓 Your words sent ripples through me. I have been mostly a “closeted writer” and only in the last year or so have been finding ways to share. I write poetry for my creative business so thank you for seeing me in this true light 🌟Your intuitive gift is strong and your knack for seeing the small details of the everyday (people, places, things) is a magical one that you sprinkle in your videos. I hope that you continue to find ways to keep expanding your reach & exploring your artistic depths in all the beautiful forms you desire to including video, art, writing, music, nature/aesthetic photography, etc ✨ It serves us all so thank you for seeing me, I see you too! All the love to you & yours from Canada 🇨🇦✌️🙏 The moon rises & glows in the dark, we shall too 🙌 💛🥰

Mo, this video is magic. I lived this day with you, and reliving it was potentially even better. You make us all feel so good with these and I know you’ve got something special here. Your heart to heart at the end was so needed for so many out there, your words and energy truly make life better, for me and so many others. I love you!!!!

Just take care of you and your owns, and if you ever feel sad for a moment, remember that we love you, that you change our lifes. I can say that I return to reading, thanks to you.

Take care of you self in this time, you video does bring me joy, but it is you, it just always seem like you are calm and happy, and living a life that makes you happy, and thats what inspire me, and makes me happy, and you dog helps 😂.

[@sjthorn]

You certainly are a bright light. Those pancakes sound delicious, I will have to find pumpkin pancake mix for myself. It's not been snowing here in Arkansas, but it has been a week of rain and more rain, so, much like you, it has been a time of cleaning and organizing for me.

[@MorganLong]

Thank you so much, Stephanie ✨ Does it snow much in Arkansas? You're close to hot southern states but also may be far enough west to have snowy winters? I think I might spring clean the whole house this weekend!

[@sjthorn]

@@MorganLong not a lot, but it does snow and gets below freezing here. I've also lived in Florida, so warmer winters are my preferred lol.

[@tamar3859]

This video was so perfect, so timely and well-balanced in every way. It brought tears to my eyes in the end when you gave your heart to 💗. Seeing the snow, cozy fire and the normal daily things you do was so refreshing to see. It was a reminder that we have more good days then bad, if you look at the whole picture. Your encouragement could not be at a better time. You are a blessing to all of us who watch. I'm confident in saying this. We need to remember that we will get through this and although we are taking precautions, we still must be hopeful and see the best of times in the worst of times. I thank you for doing just that. When I saw you post a new video I felt a sense of relief because I knew you would shed some positive light in this gloom. Thank you Morgan and Landon, and Roo!

[@MorganLong]

You are such a beautiful writer! I'm not saying this because your comment if full of compliments to met-- I mean it as an English major observing your sentence structure and train of thought! You're so wonderfully to the point and choose the BEST words to communicate your thoughts. I hope you're writing a book! A memoir of sorts :) Thank you, thank you, thank you, Tamar, for your many kind words 💗 I raise my tea mug to caring, optimistic YOU and your sweet family! You are most definitely a light in this world ✨

I know this video was published a little while ago, but I just had to say something. I discovered your channel a few days ago, and I fell in love. Your videos make me feel so relaxed and at home, a wonderful feeling, really. I know you haven’t been feeling brilliant recently, but you’ve changed my life. I know that sounds so dramatic, but it’s honestly the truth. I feel so motivated and just happy. I’m honestly so inspired by you, and I hope you know that you are amazing and it’s so calming to just wind down with a cup of tea and watch one of your videos. Thank you so much for filming these, I really appreciate them. 💕

All that winter paradise at the beginning of the video made me miss Russian winter so bad! I miss the snow the most. Also, thank you for the words of encouragement. I really hope this virus situation passes soon and there will be a vaccine developed very soon or some way of treatment. In the meanwhile, you too stay safe :) Also, this video has been so beautiful and cozy

Hello Morgan, I very much hope you are well. I feel uncomfortable at the moment. This invisible danger ... phew, I hope it's over soon. But I'm also sad for all the people who have been harmed. A nightmare. Hope, yes, we have to make the best of this difficult time . I don't let my children feel it. They give me infinite strength and joy. Maybe I heard my name there. If so ... I am very happy about it. 🙂 I am grateful that I discovered your channel and that I got to know you in this way. Take care of yourself.💞🌻🦋

[@MorganLong]

Hello, Steffie! I'm so glad you have your family to get through this with. It's hard for children to understand the gravity of the situation but I don't think they need to. I think that what you're doing is the perfect way to go about it-- focus on love, light, and positivity with them, let them know that things are uncertain in the world, but what IS certain is that you have each other and will always be there fore them 💞🌻🦋 BIG hugs

It makes me feel so small in the best way and my worries and problems are smaller then too. It's magical ✨ I'm so glad you loved Little Women!

Also I’ve really been wanting to read You Are A Badass bc you recommend. Right now I’m reading 2 nonfiction The Body Keeps the Score - Brain Mind and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel Van Der Kolk, M.D. (I’m reading this bc I was in a really bad car accident in 2019 and my body was literally crushed in half 😞my lung and everything collapsed) it’s taking me awhile to recover so your channel has made me super happy. Trying to gather up the courage to try and drive again but I’m scared. I’ve been in in the house for a year now and lost my job cause I can’t do it anymore due to injury 😞 but my life is still great cause of my husband and books and windows 😊love your videos! Thank you so much! So soothing! The second book is Quiet - the power of introverts in a world that can’t stop talking by Susan Cain. Both SO great!! ❤️❤️ talk to you soon Morgan! 😊

Hi, Caroline! You're so welcome for the shoutout! Thank you for your many positive comments ☀️ RoO sends his regards to Sir Charlie 🐾 The Ramen was super simple and quick to make! It was pre-packaged and from a local Asian grocery store (I'm not sure which kind though...super spicy!). Landon only had to the noodles and seasoning in water for 4min! He added tofu, zucchini, and onions for extra nutrients! I so highly recommend You Are A Badass!! I also love the sound of the books you're reading right now. I can't imagine the trauma you're working through-- you are SO strong!! Did you listen to The Great Alone while you were in the hospital after the crash? It's middle grade level, but a book I absolutely love is "Girl Online" by Zoe Sugg-- the protagonist was in a car crash and has extreme anxiety when traveling anywhere because of it. It's a very light-hearted read, super positive! It may be a comfort to you if it doesn't simplify things too much. I read it in a few hours. Big hugs to you! ❤️❤️

Hi Morgan! Thank you so much! Those books sound great too! I’ll have to look into them 😊 I made the ramen this week SO DELICIOUS 🤤I gave the recipe to my sister 😊 I also tried celestial seasons tea flavor Peppermint Peak. It’s the black tea with peppermint so it has a tiny bit of caffeine. Soooo goood. I remember you saying peppermint is your favorite 😊 I also love their Sugar cookie sleigh ride flavor it’s a holiday edition so it’s rare but oh. My. Goodness. It’s glorious 😋yes! I did listen to the great alone while in the hospital. It completely swept me away and really got me into the author Kristin Hannah since then I read the nightingale, home front, and winter garden all by her 😂 her books are like big pieces of cake -cozy. And just so emotional and real. I hope you and Landon and Roo are doing well this week during these crazy corona times! ❤️looking forward to your next video 😊❤️

Hi, Morgan! What is the book with the birdcage on your top shelf?

[@cathyphegley7414]

💕😘😍

[@gabbyhaddox6623]

You remind me of Miss Honey from Matilda 📚☀️

[@MorganLong]

WOW. Definitely one of my most favorite compliments ever-- thank you so much! 🤗📚☀️

[@gabbyhaddox6623]

Morgan Long Yay!!!! I hope you have a lovely day😊💛 I appreciate the content you create.

[@cherrysubmarine]

I don't know what to comment so I'll just say I'm here.

[@MorganLong]

Hi, friend!

[@itsdeandraaa]

i love your vlog music, do you have a playlist for all the songs you use?

[@MorganLong]

I am going to try to make a playlist! It's difficult because not all of the songs are on Spotify and when I download songs from Artlist, they don't always list the name and artist. I'll put together something though! Feel free to ask me again if it doesn't happen soon-- I won't mind :)

[@itsdeandraaa]

Morgan Long hahah okay! No rush though!

[@MicaTheGamer]

Love the video. New subscriber here ❤️. I’m a recent graduate as well (I got and English BA) but I haven’t been able to find a job that utilizes my degree. Is it safe to assume you earned the same degree? Have you been able to utilize it at all?

[@MorganLong]

looool. I relate to you SO much! I do indeed have a BA in English (and Spanish). I was obsessed with being perfect in school-- I stressed so much about assignments and exams. I sacrificed a lot and graduated number one in my class....and not a single person in the ~real~ world cares one bit. My degree hasn't helped me at all in finding work. I currently make videos for a living BUT in January, I also began to write copy for businesses as a freelance copy writer...so perhaps it wasn't all in vain after all. My big take away from this is to not take myself so seriously and to remember to have fun (also maybe to study something more practical if you can't afford college but want to go anyway). I know this response is a lot. Let me conclude in saying that I"m hopeful for you! Somehow, our degrees will be beneficial to us ✨

[@MicaTheGamer]

@@MorganLong Oh goodness it is SO nice to hear I'm not the only one. I am much like you. I wasn't first in my class but I graduated with Magna Cum Laude and it means absolutely nothing. I'm a bit of a perfectionist and put a lot of pressure on myself to do extremely well much like you. I'm glad you found work as a copywriter! Do you feel that your degree prepared you for that job? Also, any tips for getting a copywriting job? It seems every writing job requires professional writing experience when, in reality, none of us graduates really have any beyond school. I love your channel and I am happy to see you've found success. Your channel is such a gem and I can't wait to binge-watch your old videos.

[@cynthialenz]

There are more ad.s than video.

[@MorganLong]

Thank you for letting me know! KZbin did an update and automatically placed ads throughout all videos longer than 8 minutes on monetized channels. I've been trying to go through and revert each of my videos to the original settings.

[@cynthialenz]

@@MorganLong Thank you for the reply. I appreciate you taking the time to address my cranky comment. I know that KZbinrs rely on ad.s and deserve to be compensated for their work. It just seems like the ad.s have exploded on so many channels lately. It's worse than network TV! Anyway, thank you for addressing it and caring about the impact on viewers! 😊
