Massive amount to still sort

[@zoebrindle7269]

Doesn’t it mean the world to us when the workplace has a total understanding and compassion for a colleagues needs . Little pieces of kindness seem huge when life’s roads are rocky . I bet that took some getting over ? Regarding your daughters room maybe those boxes could go under her bed and her Laundry basket next to the book shelves ? Clearing the way to the drawers ? Just a thought . Thanks again for another fab video 🌸💐

[@gettingtidy2495]

Compassion is the best word.... Small things mean so much. Yes I think we could move the furniture around, going to encourage my daughter to lead in this change :-)

[@feraltradwife]

I love that you are helping your daughter balance her life instead of pushing her to tackle on more and higher levels. ❤

[@gettingtidy2495]

Thank you, life is so busy xx

[@shawndaniels-lr8mx]

Hi there Emma wow you’ve come so far !!! Your daughter’s room is looking so much clearer, giving space for inspiration and orderly direction to exist. What a gift to your family you are giving 👏 keep eliminating instead of organising. The goal is easily tidied not always tidy. Keep getting rid of something. Lots of somethings. The answer is always less. You should be immensely proud of yourself. Happy belated bday to you and various followers who’ve recently celebrated. Garden is glorious. Neighbour sounds horrendous. Good riddance - decluttering that too 🎉

[@lisamalone5988]

Your daughter sounds like a very busy young lady. It is good that you put off the flute exams. Sets a good example for her to slow down and not feel the need to rush everything. I find all the different words we use interesting. Some of my favorites are boot for a car trunk, and lift for an elevator. I was wondering what you call a carbonated beverage. In some states they are called pop, in others a soda and still others they are all called coke. It is fun to learn things from different countries.

[@gettingtidy2495]

Thanks, that's what I thought. Less pressure I felt. Fizzy drink? 😄

You are a good mom. Mine was a type 'A' personality, and the house was immaculate. She never stopped cleaning, and everything was on a schedule.

[@gettingtidy2495]

Thank you for your comment. That must have been really hard if day and night was a schedule!!

That's a sweet story about your husband's Manager.

Yes still makes me feel emotional. Showing that kindness in such a difficult situation.

As my Mother who would be 100 this year if she was still with us would say, "never leave a room empty handed" my Mum was very houseproud we may not of had the modern up to date furniture, but my God our house was clean, but then we only slept in our bedrooms, we didn't play in them as we hardly had any toys anyway, ( always out playing) I love how you kiss the dolls, I'm the same, pleurisy is very painful I've had it 3 times. 😷 you poor thing. 💐

[@gettingtidy2495]

I must remember this "never leave a room empty handed"

Great how you are all painting the fence panels, great work

In the US we call a tracksuit top a sweatshirt or hoodie (if it has a hood). The tracksuit pants are called sweatpants. A tank top is similar to a sleeveless t-shirt but often a thinner material and it usually has a deep scoop neck in the front. Your daughter’s room is looking great. I remember seeing my mom mop and vacuum when I was a kid. I liked when she mopped the kitchen because she would put the kitchen chairs in the living room and I’d climb on them and make up games. 😊

[@gettingtidy2495]

Sounds like fun. I remember making a house from tables, chairs and blankets!

For an American jumper, google "catholic school uniform jumper." You should get images of a plaid, sleeveless, knee-length dress, often with a pleated skirt. A blouse is worn underneath.

[@gettingtidy2495]

Ah yes what we'd call a tunic 🤣🤣

[@teres469]

Another lovely video Emma..Would it not be easier to cook your potatoes and fish in Oven on a tray with a little olive oil? To save you standing over it? 😁...looked yummy by the way!

[@brookhowell8841]

You can also roast your broccoli with the fish and potatoes!

[@teres469]

​@@brookhowell8841I meant to say that aswell 😅

[@gettingtidy2495]

I don't think you can bake the fish with the way I do the "batter"?

[@teres469]

I'm sure you can, if you perhaps heat oil on oven tray first and then place breaded fish on it and turn after 10 mins or so?

[@teres469]

Oven baking is the same as frying. As long as you heat your tray with oil initially x

[@judithwoomer7747]

Great video Emma. I hope you get nice and friendly new neighbors. Perhaps you can go to the realtor and explain what is happening so the new buyers know the correct boundary. That way they won't think they are buying more land than is actually being sold. In the US when you buy a property it is surveyed before purchase and when you close on the house you are given a copy of the surveyed property. It is very clear and detailed of property lines. I'm so sorry you have this trouble. The fish looked delicious, I love fish especially Salmon.❤❤🦋🦋❤❤🦋🦋❤❤❤❤🦋🦋

[@gettingtidy2495]

Legally they have to declare any issues/problems related to the boundary so we'll see what they write! Fish is very good for us. I like salmon too. My daughter likes salmon in sushi 🍣🍣😋😋

[@carolynoquinn4573]

We call them sweaters, also!

[@brookhowell8841]

A jumper is longer than a tank top, usually a dress. We generally don't wear a shirt under a tank top. I believe it's similar to what you call a vest.

[@gettingtidy2495]

A vest comes to our waist usually

[@dawnysdennumber10]

An idea ?... id lay the bookcase on its side and ut under her bed. And then fit her wicker basket stand under too xx

[@lauramitchell6725]

I also suggested laying the tall one on it’s side under the bed but the one with the four wicker baskets is actually quite attractive and calming,I would leave it where it is with a wicker trash can and laundry basket next to it.Practical and pretty!🙌🏻

[@brookhowell8841]

As a former teacher, I am so happy she stops you and asks what words mean. Up until recently I used to keep a notebook of new vocabulary words I learned from my reading. Concerning the furniture, this weekend or sometime you have more time, I would ask your daughter to be in charge of moving that for cube bookshelf under her bed. Of course you can help her, but it's another way for her to take responsibility for her own room. Then if she doesn't like it, she can men be in charge of putting it where she wants it.

I think American English is different from England is because we don’t just have British influence on our language,we have every other countries language influence.

Thank you for the explanation regarding the fence. Wow. Your neighbour is a real prize😢. My home and gardens growing up were always immaculate. When I first got married I was reading the paper on the couch. I put the paper onto the floor. I looked around and realized I had to clean it up. I was so used to my mom doing everything. She helped me many times tidy my house and sort my garden. She was the best. I miss her very much😢❤loved the video!!

That sounded like quite the long or deal with your health, Emma. How long did it take you to feel like yourself again?

[@gettingtidy2495]

It affected me for a while. I could feel the scarring on my lungs and every time I got a cold it went to my chest. The Dr said there was nothing that could be done. But I researched alternative medicine and that's why I got interested in homeopathy. After my treatment all issues were resolved 😍

Can your daughter take a baby aspirin at bedtime just to get over the first 30 minutes of wakefulness? Sometimes when they get over-tired just need to wind down for 30 minutes.
