Crystal, I starting watching this and what you were saying, and it brought me back to 2 years ago and what happened to me in similar circumstances. We downsized and built a new house. We moved in, in June 2022. I can relate to the boxes stacked to the ceiling. After raising our boys and being in a much larger home for 35+ years, and then moving...... yes, I can relate and it is terrible. It is supposed to be a happy time, moving. But it is so much back breaking work, never mind the emotional stress. But I don't want you to have any of the health problems that I had. I wasn't feeling well, either, after the move. I was dead tired, and laboring going up and down stairs to the basement. I started wheezing at night while in bed and thought I had bronchitis or pneumonia. I went to the doctor and found out that I had artrial fibrillation or afib. Was sent straight to the hospital that day and was there for 11 days because they overdosed me with a med that was supposed to lower my heart rate. Long story short, moving is really awful and very taxing. The overly tired stuff worries me, so make sure you stay in contact with your doctor office if you are feeling worse or the same. You are much younger than I am (I am 71), so I am not trying to scare you. But honestly, I did not know what was wrong with me, and went a couple of weeks before I called the doctor. I could have easily had a stroke.

I wish I lived closer to you. I would meet up and buy the Gingerbread items from you. I'm starting over with all my Christmas decorations. Please don't stress so much about decorating. Do what you need to do for you to enjoy because there's always next year. Happy Holidays to you and your entire family! 🎄⛄🎄⛄🎄

Crystal, I'm so proud of you! It's not easy letting go of things we once loved. Plus, the fact they cost money, lol. I must say donating can be so freeing. Someone else can benefit from it and speaking from my own experience a lot less stressful than holding on to something we won't use no more.

Love, love, love the kitchen! It looks gorgeous with all the MC and the MC dupes. Always enjoy your store tours, but I really like your vlogs, feels like we're hanging out and chatting. I'm so glad you're donating stuff, you're decluttering and you'll get some of your money back with the write-off.

I love watching you decorate and you finding your pieces. Because we just moved, I'm finding Christmas piecemeal. I know this might be another trip to some place crafty, but about Mackenzie Childs type ribbon or material and p around your gingerbread figurer.

Hey there, Crystal Sweetie why stress yourself even more by worrying about decorating for Christmas ? Everyone knows what you and your hubby are going through right now. Just put what you need to unpack for life out and forget about it all until you come back from your trip? Please take better care of yourself. Merry Christmas. Get some sleep. Love from South Carolina

Decorating for Christmas seems to be a must for your mental health. But for your physical health can be dangerous. Please take it easy. There are situations that you cannot control. There is always next year for Christmas decorating. After you vacay at Disney World you can start decorating for Valentine's Day. Merry Christmas and a prosperous 2025!

Good job with purging Crystal. It’s a pain and can be really hard. You can keep it simple like making a point to go through two boxes a week. That’s it. Then you don’t feel so overwhelmed. I will going through all my Christmas stuff and purging things too. I am waiting till it’s time to put it all away so I can pack the storage bins better. Ugh.

Hi Crystal! Love the black and white decor with your Makenzie Child items. Very beautiful!!! Perhaps you should just do a little bit of Christmas decor this year. You have lots on your plate, so maybe you can decorate a little and relax lots. I love your videos and enjoy your cheerful, happy, humorous personality! Thank you!!! 🎄🎄🎁🎁👍👍😃😃🙏🙏

Hello Crystal, it’s very stressful moving. I literally hate where I’m living as the area declined drastically, however I take care of my sister who has downsyndrome and I’m diabetic so I know a move would STRESS me out dramatically so I’m really between a rick and a hard place. PLEASE take care of yourself and try your best not to over exert yourself. I know it’s easier said then done, although take a little each day slowly:)) Thank you for ALL you do. It’s SO appreciated 🎄🎁🎄

Is it an option to postpone your Disney World trip? So you can get your place situated and decorate your condo. You deserve to enjoy Christmas 🎅🏽 🎁🎄
