    Nikki, just found your blog and channel and absolutely love it! You're right it doesn't take much time. I recently retired and can't get anything done. I seem to have forgotten the lessons I learned while working. The only thing I'd add to the work bag would be an umbrella and for commuters a change of shoes. Thanks again!

    Thank you. So glad you enjoyed. Both now and even when I worked our evenings were pretty open as far as time. We have about 5 hours each evening (5:30 to 10:30) to eat dinner, relax, do planning, bill paying, manicures, watch tv etc. Now that I am at home all day I now like to do my planning and things in the mornings.

    That is SO AWESOME! I think that cleaning jar system will work so great for your family, especially being a large family. Sure, I will do a quick follow up video for the chore cards or either send you a list. LOL...That is awesome that your craft room is the room that stays organized. Oddly enough that is the toughest for me to keep in order..LOL. Hope you have a beautiful weekend.

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    Thank you. I am so happy you liked the video. That is so awesome that your mom is able to utilize that and also to have drug store delivery. I wish I were like you and enjoyed grocery shopping.

    How awesome is Tesco! Oh how I miss my Tesco :). I also was very shocked to move back to the states and find that my area had no grocery delivery :( I hope one comes around my way soon. Thanks so much for watching and enjoying my videos. Hope your having a great weekend in the beautiful UK.

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    I am so glad you enjoyed the video and can use some of the tips. Isn't that crockpot a lifesaver. I used mines yesterday and it was so nice not around 5pm when everyone was ready to eat to not have to get in the kitchen..it was done! :). Well good luck with your new job. Have a beautiful week.

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    Thank you! So glad you enjoyed the video. I totally understand what you mean. I am the same way. As long as I keep the system going as planned it works great. If I don't then things get out of order quick :). Hope you have a great day.

  • @AtHomeWithNikki

    Thank you so much! I used the program on mac called "Pages" to make those. I simply used the rectangle (I believe) shape in that program to make the labels and filled them with the different colors. Hope this helps. Have a great day my friend!

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    Awww...Thank you so much. I really enjoyed making this video. If you do the cleaning jar with the kids, please let me know how they like it. I will try to make the next video my craft room tour. I so apologize. That video is so late. Hope you have a great night.

  • @AtHomeWithNikki

    Hello, 1st THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing. I'm currently a stay @ home mom of a 4yr old & 6 mo old, so anything that helps me keep track & be organized is TRULY appreciated. I'll start school in Jan 2013 & when I saw your 2nd tip, I thought-BRILLIANT! I plan to use it as well for that 1st job when I'm done. I saw a lady yesterday trying to juggle multiple bags as I have before & wanted to tell her she needed to see this video, lol. Thank you for sharing & I'm now subscribed!

  • @sofiagomez6839
    @sofiagomez6839 8 років тому

    I really like the idea of having a smaller bag in the big one so if you just need to go to lunch is just on the go . This is was a really big help

  • @mommaluff2132
    @mommaluff2132 12 років тому

    Love the one hour cleaning tip and the work bag. I will definitely be adopting both of those tips. I'm a stay at home mom, but always find myself needing 3 extra hands when I leave the house - purse, bottle of water, keys, shopping bags, snack, etc etc etc. Great idea to put together an everything bag so I'm not trying to juggle handfuls of stuff.

  • @AtHomeWithNikki

Just at the time I need you!!!! Some amazing tips in here that will make a massive difference to my daily life - thank you so much! (Sydney, Aust)

    I'm one of your UK subscribers and imagine my surprise to see my beloved Tesco pop up on your video! I love that supermarket. I have one 10 mins from my house and one across the road from work. I've never used their online shopping as I pop in after work on a Tuesday (my shopping day) and pick up all my groceries, but I know people who do online shopping and love it. I was very surprised that online shopping doesn't exist in the US! Love your videos.

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    Thank you! So glad you enjoyed. Great you have the online grocery shopping (I am so jealous:). You know that is the not so good thing about some companies who deliver(the delivery charge). The two placed I shopped in the UK had very reasonable delivery charges so I lucked up. Hope your off to a great weekend.

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    I have heard of safeway. l am going to check and see if there is one in my area.. BIG THANK YOU for that information. Hope your off to a great weekend.

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    So true. I am a big believer that all family members need to take part in the responsibilities of maintaining the home. I tell you, the work bag is a must isnt it. You sound like you have some real goodies in your work bag :) So glad you enjoyed the video. Hope you have a beautiful week.

  • @divinemzl

    Thanks Stacey. Someone mentioned pea pod and that is so great that you all have that! I wish we had them here. I know that is such a timesaver for you. Thanks for sharing. Perhaps they will get a location in my area one day :). Have a beautiful evening!

  • @MsSassyMT
    @MsSassyMT 12 років тому

    I have fallen in love with my crockpot and I work from home. So many days it has been a lifesaver because my teenager gets home and she's ready to eat and she can help herself and I can keep working. I'm about to transition back to working outside of the home so I know these tips will come in handy since it's been years. Always love your videos and tips.

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    Thanks...Glad you liked. I wasnt introduced to this cleaning schedule about two years ago my one of my co-workers. So no, did not ever use this system with my kids. My past career was in the social service field, human resources and management position.

    @18doves 12 років тому

    GENIUS!!! I am saving this video so I can refer back to it! The crock pot is great I've been using that for awhile now but thanks for the recipe ideas from the other youtubers! I am the bag lady I love handbags but I don't need to change them everyday!!! U r my yt mentor! I am going to pack my briefcase similarly and definitely will get the coffee mug I'm tired of the shout wipes from spilled coffee stains getting to the car! Thx so much!!

  • @TaajiRauf
    @TaajiRauf 11 років тому

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    So glad my video could be helpful and that you enjoyed. You know that 1 hour commute has to be exausting (especially by the end of the work week). I hope these tips can really help bring some stress relief to you. You know I use to travel a lot with my job so I can relate to coming home exausted and stressed. My wish for you is great success with these tips and a less stress work week. Have a beautiful week.

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    Hi Jane! This is the only video I have done explaining the cleaning card system. I do have the templates where you can print them out if you like on my blog. Hope you have a beautiful week.

    All of your videos are great and I have really taken advantage of them with unbelievable results! I am so forever grateful to you Nikki. I cant beleive how I am finally getting things done that I have been trying to do in some cases for years! I think this video is the one I have benefitted most from thus far. Its like my mom or some close family memeber whispered in your ear for me. We still use clothing lines alot here in the Bahamas. Honestly, there is something refreshing about it but the time it takes...ughh. Thought it crazy to do laundry everyday but I guess it makes sense. I'll be using dryer more often now. Bag lady at work, feeling overwhelmed from constant cleaning, feeling bad for family eating out too much, and dont get me started on those dishes! Lol... Don't think we have that grocery service here in the Bahamas but I am definitely going to find out. God bless you. I cannot bestow that upon you enough. A sincere and heartfelt thank you to you Nikki. I'm on a high now feel so elated like I should dress in a cape tomorrow! Hehehehehehehe

  • @AtHomeWithNikki
    @AtHomeWithNikki  12 років тому

    Sure thing! I do plan on doing some videos around Christmas showing that. Thanksgiving I am going to my brothers so I am not hosting that. Thanks so much for watching and hope you have a great weekend.

    Why am I only now finding this video?! Thank you so much! Packed with great, helpful tips (some I had fleetingly thought of, but never put into practice, and some totally new to me). I am definitely going to try the one hour a day cleaning! Using a timer should keep me disciplined enough to stick to it (I loathe housework). Again, thanks, Nikki!
