    I love the term "essentialist" !! Minimalist can sometimes evoke preconceived judgement from people, as this can be an aesthetic or a lifestyle or even an ideal that can be "preached" to others - but "Essentialist" immediately gives that background that I am not wasteful, or frivolously consumerist, but I don't have to live in a stark white empty home.
    Essentialism feels like it would allow for a perfect union of Kondo "joy" items, essential for your soul, and minimalism, essential for a functioning home and budget 😁

    Great baby. I didn't even notice him at first. And he was so content to sit there with his mom.

    As a Minimalist Lite, I too have hobbies like home canning, gardening, crochet and embroidery. I do not take on new hobbies without great thought because I need to know what I am willing to give my most precious commodity-time too.

    I use my notes app for shopping lists, or Christmas lists, anything I need to refer to later and in the moment of action (i.e. purchasing)…..so WHY did I never think to use it for a daily/weekly to-do task list?!?! Brilliant. I’m literally pausing the video and setting it up now!

      I set two alarms on my phone - one before I sit down to watch local news and one an hour or so before bed. The alarms remind me to check my notes and I have routine lists for both times. Really helpful for me to stay on track.

    I really appreciated that "would you buy this at a thrift store" insight. With that in mind, have piles of craft projects and supplies that I'm finally going to give the boot!

    My husband's mother would not buy her kids anything new whatsoever, he said she made him wear used shoes and it ruined his feet. If you think about it, the way someone walks, makes the shoes wear in a certain way and someone else wearing them afterwards, makes them wear walk in a way that isn't natural to them. When he was a teenager, he worked and saved his money, he was obligated to pay utilities and pay for food, he spent 40$ on a new pair of shoes and his mother had the biggest fit you ever saw. She acted as if he had spent her money, so wrong!!!

      This is a really important comment because some of the people who are able to read your comments will have good information about the importance of good shoes that are new. It is equally important to not buy shoes/boots that are too big knowing that kids grow so fast. Footware that is too big adversely affects children's hips..

      Requiring that he contribute to the household bills seems out of place. But. Is it any different than young children being required to daily work on a family farm or any business like a hardware store or bakery? We do not know enough. How does it affect his choices now? People say to "live below your means" have enough means to live below!

      @@Joce123 my husband worked as a child, sorting and burning metal, he mowed lawns, had a newspaper route, and all the money went to bills and groceries, his stepdad was an alcoholic, so he would get drunk, buy things that weren't needed, the money wouldn't be there for bills, hence, they would go for months with no heat hot water. He had no childhood

      My kids have used shoes and their feet are just fine, my kids wear used clothes and they look just fine. No offense but don’t take the extreme and blow it out of proportion

    New shoes are important, or I should say shoes that haven’t been worn in by others. Having shoes that have the inside imprinted with someone else’s wearing just is not good for you. It is similar to wearing someone else’s prescription glasses, unless you miraculously have the same prescription (or foot and walking pattern) it can permanently hurt your health. I believe that new shoes is one of those things that should be put in the more important column.

    • @MinimalistHome
      @MinimalistHome  2 місяці тому +1

      Usually yes! Also, when you have 8 kids and you’re looking for ones that look pretty new, it seems like there’s some wiggle room needed.
