HOME REFRESH! Rearrange the house with me ! Declutter and organize. Planning new projects !

[@OurSmallTownLife]

Taking care of ourselves is so important! Sometimes we are so busy taking care of everyone else that we forget to take care of us.

[@donnamorrison4747]

Karrie-you are living life with all of it’s - good & bad , “ups” n downs , internally,externally,& privately . You have a gift to improve your space , create your space. Slow down a bit. Sending prayers of support and strength .

[@kayriggleman5196]

You are a strong woman. You don't give up. Keep it up. I like your vision for the bedrooms

[@lisawfriday]

Mental health is so important especially in our world now. Never let a Dr or anyone dismiss you and your symptoms. Take care of yourself. Do what’s best for you. I get it 100% and then some. ❤

[@stoudthouse46]

thanks for the motivation so glad you’re feeling better. Will continue to pray for your daughter and your son who that he doesn’t get sick.

[@ikrobiee]

I love that you go with the flow of the kids trying to share a room and it's no big deal to switch it back. Less is definately more! More free time, more breathing space, more visual space and more happiness.

[@catherinelain1370]

I like bench with storage. You can build desktop next to it with shelving on top. When my son was about 8, I bought an above ground pool. That lasted 1 summer. Too much trouble to do chemicals and leaves/bugs. Sold it to a coworker. Used slip and slide and sprinklers after that. That is wonderful that you have chosen therapy. It is good to speak with someone on the outside. My son had developed extreme anxiety after an operation and could not drive nor have a job. Therapy helped him tremendously. He eventually had to gets meds. He really enjoyed therapy. You are beautiful inside and out! You and your family are just so sweet to watch. I feel the love.❤

[@valeriehughes5726]

Oh Karrie, you're going through exactly what I went through in my 30's. I had the numbness, pins & needles, feeling like I couldn't do the things I needed to do (raising 3 boys) and it was awful. The drs didn't know as much about anxiety in those days and they thought I had MS - had the symptoms. Anyway, long story short it was anxiety and I had it through the years - no therapist and I'm sad because I know they would have helped me so much in those days. I'm so happy you have reached out and gotten help - I know it will make a big difference in your life. Anxiety mimics many things - and it's hard but as you now know, there is help. Thanks for talking about this, so others won't feel so defeated if they are dealing with anxiety.

[@Autumncolors247]

My doctor thought i needed high blood pressure meds i said let me test it at home for 30 days & it was from anxiety causing it to rise but now i do these calming breathing & mind exercises & no meds needed i try to do supplements too instead of doctor meds for cholesterol & my doctor put me on fish oil supplements & they're working & yes anxiety is a sneaky issue can mimic all kinds of health issues i was glad i did my research otherwise I'd be on meds & karrie i'm gonna tell my doctor to test my blood for vitamins i'm lacking like u did for my next yr visit for my annual i never knew about that till u mentioned u did that thank u 😉 hope ur all safe from the hurricane sending u prayers 🙏

[@gaillangford280]

Karrie I like your first choice for your daughter’s bedroom. Every child needs a desk. That choice has both window seat and desk . Love it! You are doing an amazing job. Have a great day!

[@barbbrooks1591]

I am so happy to hear you discuss therapy on your channel. It is something that still has a stigma that causes people to suffer alone. I've been in therapy off and on for years as needed. It wasn't until the last few years (I'm 57) that I felt I could talk about it to others without being judged. Thank you!

[@letitiajohnson6987]

Talking to a professional on a regular basis is so helpful as a mom! I only talk with my therapist once every 2-3 months now and I can always increase as needed, but it's like she goes in my head and rearranges the chaos in my mind and throws out the unneeded thoughts. I'm ready to get back at things when I'm done. Even when I think I didn't need a session, turns out I did.

[@09mlucas]

I'm so glad u told us about Better Help. Almost 2 years ago, October, I lost my mother.... I am an only child & my dad was never in the picture. I have really been struggling to move forward, I have absolutely no motivation .... I want to either sit in my recliner or lay in my bed... I think I will look into this & I can let you know how it goes. Thank you again about telling b us about them Misty

[@CoriNagy]

I used Better Health eight years ago. The therapist I had was amazing. Good for you, we all need help sometimes. ❤❤❤

[@CathyH-xd7xb]

Zoey is the cutest dog ever!!! Love the way she looks at you. Glad you are all doing ok. and nothing serious with the hurricane.

[@katherinehedges1946]

Anxiety is definitely no fun. I'm glad you're seeking what's best for you. Loved the video. You are an inspiration.

[@laurahapp9840]

Karrie, I enjoyed hearing about your new projects and know you will get them completed. You have so much positive energy! When I was in my thirties I had anxiety, too, and got help. I think it is part of being a perfectionist. I mean, look at all you have accomplished and your lovely family and pets! Your love and energy just shines through the screen. Take care of yourself and thank you for sharing your life with us. You always inspire me to get up and get things done and I look forward to checking back in with you often!

[@dawnparker3485]

Definitely love the desk idea. Having a girl, the desk was good as she got older. As for reading space, bean bags or comfy papasan chair worked for us. Just want to say that I think you're doing a great job with what you can do. Thanks for sharing your life with us. Hang in there. 💕

[@moniqueboudreaux]

I love the built in desk & the bench by the window idea in that first picture you showed! It doesn’t seem like it’d be too much in that space it’s the perfect reading area & she can even do homework there

[@lfuentes4098]

Me too, but I be worried I would bump into the stand alone bench. Maybe the second option with one bookcase being the desk space?

[@vanessaross3589]

I think the first picture option would be good because there’s still a desk space too! Excited to see the refresh videos! ❤

[@gailfenander223]

Oh Zoe!! She's not ignoring you .... she spends all day with you and then shares the night with Dylan. Equal time!! 😊

[@karrielynn]

Haha true 🤣🤣 she does favor him though when he's home 😭😭

[@sandybuchanan3479]

I like the window bench, desk, and bookcase idea. Love your channel.

[@almariekuit56]

A window seat with storage is perfect.

[@3CandiesInTX]

I think you made a right decision about the pool. I have a HOA pool and we rarely go there. We do set up sprinklers and splash pads. Very easy to maintain them.

[@j.christian6801]

Everyone loves you!!! Great ideas on the bench and shelves!!!😊

[@robinsnell7249]

I had a window seat when I was a young girl and loved it. Adding the bookshelves would be a bonus! I still so love the color of her chest of drawers and bedside tables! You will do a fabulous job no matter what you decide.

[@normaguerra7081]

You need a she shed 1/2 office 1/2 workout room 😊you have the back yard space 😉

[@oursweetcountrylife9041]

😍Zoey totally listening to you when you're talking to her she definitely understands her mama🤗❤❤❤

[@bonniehodgson8776]

Venting relieves a lot of built up tension 😊❤️ A work out space outside sounds wonderful 😊

Hi Karrie 🌺the built in looks so pretty. I am glad you are healing well in your therapy. Much Grace💜🌺💝

[@cynthiaslebodnik6945]

Glad you have found a solution to your health problems. I know I always feel better after I talk to my therapist, so I hope yours brings relief for your anxiety.😊

[@ashbmom]

So happy to see this post. Was praying for your family when hurricane made landfall today.

[@dawnpatrick7334]

The first pic is my vote. It provides function & storage w/o crowding the space & is beautiful. The 2nd option isakso beautiful but I think it w/make the space feel over crowded w/all the 'stuff' on the built ins.

[@petro3441]

My daughter also loves collecting rocks and it was always in her closet. So i gave her succulent plants and she built a cute garden and used all the rocks in the little rockgarden

[@kyleekuhl2981]

I have health related anxiety too. And it’s been solely based on I lost my dad when I was 19 so I navigated life after loss of a parent early and I never want my kids to feel that hurt.. I was an adult but still had a lot of kid in me.. so I’m thankful that you are able to use your platform to speak of it and make it known. Knowing why I have it has helped tremendously on easing the strange symptoms and now I’m able to look into each symptom and figure out if they are actual issues or my body’s response to fear or anxiety and it helps soooo much just having the knowledge! I feel like I related to you so much in this video!

[@debbiejansen555]

I like the first picture with the windowseat and desk with shelves next to it. looks so pretty!

[@sandypeters3238]

Same!

[@bwifey23]

Zoey looking at you giving you the side eye 😂 so sweet!

[@sheilascobee4530]

I like the bench under the window idea the best. 💞

[@barbiebrannam233]

It's all gonna work out,don't stress about anything. Your daughter's room will be great,pics are gorgeous. Take care!!!😁❤

[@cherylgreene2252]

I like the idea of the reading seat with a nice bookcase for her books,I also like the desk idea.

[@denitadevereux7724]

Always remember that there is healing for you when you share things in how you feel about yourself. Love you beautiful continue on doing amazing job for yourself and your family 😊

[@candiceobando-crsb6486]

I think you should do the second bench pic with the two bookcases for extra storage and then I would move the desk out of the closet and put the toys, books, shoes in the closet

[@mabelcampos3492]

I am just like you 😊 I will de cluttered all the time but I will bring more items again to replace what I took out ☺️ I am glad you are getting help with your anxiety problem. I had an anxiety attack once and it was awful 😞

[@becky8683]

Karrie...I just love your videos! You have such a positive, pleasant, and beautiful soul. I just know we'd be the best of friends if we lived closer. Your little family is precious. Thanks for being open about your struggles. We can all relate and hopefully you have encouraged someone who is struggling in their own life to seek help. Can't wait to see what projects you tackle as you're so talented. Have a great weekend! 🙂

[@rachelbolick]

Hey Karrie, Happy Friday. I have really bad anxiety and I have been wanting to get help for it. I just didn’t know how to take the next step or where to go to find someone. This sponsorship should help me reach the next step of getting help for my anxiety and I hate talking on the phone or doing video chat so I’m glad they have multiple options of communicating. ❤ Thank you for sharing your story of why you needed to find help and explaining that it helps you a lot. ❤ I love how understanding you are about rearranging your rooms around again and not having an office space anymore.

[@tammyaswell4562]

Love your videos, Karrie Lynn. You can vent and talk to us anytime about anything. ❤

[@lanenessaboo]

Bench with storage is always a nice option.

[@linmurray436]

You need a she shed for your office and workout space, I know you would make it so cute!!

[@christinesandywell9123]

I think if you make a sitting nook in your bedroom you could make it with a hidden storage unit with a cushion on top xxx

[@leanneadams2804]

Karrie, prayed for you and family while hurricane was hitting Florida. Glad u are safe, no damage to your home. ❤

[@kathylezcano8793]

Karrie loved the way Zoe was. Looking at you, she loves you. My dog The same thing So glad that you and your family are doing better. I like the first picture. Can't wait for you to finish the projects in. Your daughters are right, it's gonna look Amazing. You do such awesome work. That all your test results came back good. Can't wait for your next one.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ God bless you and your family❤

[@alicelove738]

Hey Karrie, I love the built-in ideas!! Since you love both inspo why not have the best of both worlds?! Bookcase on one side and the desk/bookcase on the other to frame the window. That would be gorgeous 😍 with the creamy white walls. I'm on board. I can't wait to see what you decide!!

[@barbarawood6008]

Absolutely one of the built ins . The desk would likely be most practical

[@jgg7377]

Karrie, I want you to know how much I love your videos and look forward to each and everyone of them no matter what you do.! So glad you and your family are safe from the hurricane. Was super worried and so glad to see this post. I also want to tell you how beautiful I think your house is . Everything looks amazing, love all your choices of colors, furniture etc. I am so curious to see what you are going to do in the carport for your new workout space. Will you still be able to park your truck in there after? Love both of the photos for your daughters room. I was thinking, maybe you could get a different shed ( a bigger one and use that for your laundry/ workout space. Then the other could be for storage for tools, lawnmower ect. Excited to see what you end up doing anyway!

[@amberr737]

Zoey is adorable!! I have 4 Dogs and yes I baby talk them all day long 😂 thank you for All the motivation!!

[@Allioop_1]

Karrie, I had huge anxiety as a mother raising my son, church activities, sports, scouts, work, and my husbands needs… there’s so much put on a mother, wife, sister, daughter, etc., it can be overwhelming. I would eat and had trouble swallowing food, I would literally cry into the dish water doing dishes… that’s how bad it got. I hope you get the help you need. You’re not crazy! It’s what a lot of us Mom’s go through. On another note… after seeing the devastation left by Idalia, you are all in my prayers. 🙏🙏🙏🙋🏻‍♀️❤️

[@tdelf]

Lol! Zoe’s look when you say she was breaking your heart everyday! I laughed out loud!

[@naomi9723]

Thanks for the video . We’re all humans and not perfect . ❤ don’t ever stop your smile. 😃. You got this 💪

[@lindacallis9941]

So glad you got the help you needed. I like the second option with bench under window.

[@barbarapratt5682]

Hey Karrie…I’m glad you are getting some therapy and I hope it continued to help with your anxiety. Looking forward the the bedroom makeovers. I like the window seat with just one shelf next to it. I love the way Zoey looks at you…you are her person!! 😊

[@terrieaves1682]

Karrie, you are an inspiration and a motivator to me! Girl, you have the best decorating ideas and the skills to bring them to life and on a budget! I love the built in with the desk idea! I love the chest/ dressers that you painted. So impressive! I believe you can do anything! I have been in a funk. I haven't wanted to do anything for a while. It seemed that every way I turned was a stumbling block. Well, you have helped me to get up and pull myself together. You are the sweetest person! You have amazing talent! I'm so glad the hurricane wasn't bad for you all. We all love you and your sweet family.

[@IrmaDiaz-h1l]

Hey Karrie, I don’t think you’ve ever put out a video that I haven’t throughly enjoyed💪🏻You’re doing a fantastic job.🙌🏻. Thx especially for always keeping it real. 👍🏻 Watching from Michigan…Ki

[@dianemarino4860]

I like the window seat, desk and bookcase more. That way, she'll have everything she needs in one cute space.

[@Brenda-fs1ow]

I would choose bench/desk but regardless of whichever one you decide to go with it will look good either way. Cant wait to see the results!

[@tinacorrell9930]

I like the first idea with the desk/vanity and the bench seat. I think that will look really cute and it's something se can grow into as well.

[@deborahodonnell5420]

I love the window seat with the desk I think that would be amazing. I would consider a different colour for the room. White appears like a non colour and would make it pretty plain for a young person. Ask your daughter what colour she would like. You maybe surprised.

[@carriekowal5123]

Hey Karrie 👋 You are so relatable! Love the dog voices 😂 Always a pleasure ❤

[@karentoclean]

I absolutely love the ideas you have for your daughters room. Honestly, I'd go with making a bench sitting area with the built-in look.

[@ginadacquisto]

I like the first picture with the bench seat.

[@pamelab1175]

I have rocks of all sizes from the land we live on. I use some as book ends. I have quite a few out on my porch railing. If I find a pretty one I put it up there. I would go with a desk. She might get more use out of that. Well, after seeing the second picture. I like the seat with the built ins. So do what you and your daughter will like.

[@brookedore6296]

So glad your tests all came back good! I struggle with health anxiety as well. It can be really exhausting on your mentally. Sending love and hugs your way!

[@bethm8967]

Growing up I had a room that I shared that had the bench window seat in the middle with two shelves and desks on both sides. I always loved sitting on the bench seat and looking out the window growing up 💗 So I would say go with the bench set bookshelves for her room

Stay well💕

Love you, Karrie Lynn, and i love sweet Zoe.. she melts my heart ❤️

[@deborafranklin7469]

Hi Karrie. Im so glad your are getting help with your anxiety. I have had it for so bad that I had to go on medication for anxiety/panic attacks ❤❤

[@Stephanie-lg1cm]

I’m a retired mental health nurse, I never experienced anxiety until just before I left my job. My husband had an accident and had some health issues following that and I started worrying about my health ( will I stay healthy enough to care for him if he needs me). I over breathe sometimes which makes me feel as though I can’t get enough air, I don’t even realise I’m doing this until my fingers start to tingle, side effect of this. I tense all over causing muscle fatigue….and the list goes on. I started using a beta blocker (propranolol), when I needed it because I realised my body was often in fight or flight mode and this has helped a lot. It doesn’t work for everyone but in my case I feel it made a difference. Health anxiety is more common than you know and is often triggered by a life event so therapy is a great idea. Often just recognising that what you’re feeling is in your head, can take away the physical symptoms and therefore the stress.

[@katmarano2347]

I went through the same exact thing you were going through. I have been in the emergency room several times because I thought I was having a heart attack but it was all from anxiety attacks. They can truly mess with your head and entire body. I too sought out a professional to help me cope. They have gotten better but I still have them once in awhile. I get them a lot when driving. I wish you the best with that, it's a tough ride for sure. You got this!

[@margaretmuenchau5450]

Love your videos Karrie! We appreciate you!

[@amberwest1671]

[@caracampbell1715]

Definitely do a window seat with built-ins. We just installed one in our breakfast area and it’s my favorite place in the whole house. Ours opens for storage, and I have all of my kitchen appliances in there. There’s nothing like a window seat. Maybe hang curtains that she can close for privacy while she sits there to read. All kids love a hidey-hole.💗💗💗

[@melissalorden5789]

Oh my gosh I forgot to say I’m so extremely happy and proud of you for reaching out and getting help for the health anxiety. I am so happy that it’s helping you too. ❤❤❤❤

I love her too. Had to put my older dogs done six months apart. Zoe made me realize I needed a dog again. Now have two. She is a ham for the camera.

[@kathylezcano8793]

The same thing happened to me. But I waited a year before I got a dog and I'm so happy I have him. He brings me so much joy. Animals are your best friend. God bless❤

[@jos-1994]

Karrie, I'm glad to hear you are doing much better physically and mentally with some external resources as a therapist. TFS with us. Loving the changes to the rooms and both options for your daughter. She can grow into either set up as well but if I had to pick, I'd say the desk on the side with the window seat where you can add more storage. The room is a nice size and it would still allow room to grow or switch up👍🏽

[@angelarobinson5261]
