Bonnie please don't apologize for sharing your emotions. People who follow you on UA-cam do so not only for the cleaning, but also for the person you are.
One thing I realized after my husband died, I had too much unused stuff. As a Senior, I slowly purged my kitchen, I only have three fry pans, wasn't using my crock pot, thank goodness I had a friend to help me and take things to a thrift store.
@lightgiver7311 I had a housekeeper for a short time & she suggested I get rid of a large amount of silverware, pans & cereal bowls. Not all at once just small amounts & I have had to go buy a few things like forks when the grandkids are here. It has helped some but I think I need to get rid of some more. Baby steps, baby steps.
As an 8 year widow from a 42 year marriage, who uses her warming drawer to hold all my lids; the grieving depression is real. The excess of kitchen essentials is because she moved out of her home and had to downsize into the apartment. Loosing her home after loosing her husband is alot to bare. So many others advised me to move from my home, but I'm glad I stayed put. I hope your client finds a therapist and starts to find some peace. Helping her clear her space will help her clear her mind.
The clutter looks like ptsd to me. That is, her current situation is the stressor. Mourning is best done in one's chosen space not somewhere someone else has decided.
@@SierraNovemberKilo exactly. everything in my house was sacred after he died, and i didn't want anyone touching anything until i was ready ... his favorite plates, cups ... his favorite frying pan and spatula. The towels he chose and his brand of toothpaste ... everything has a memory attached to it. Others cant relate unless they've been through it 🤷♀️
You are about one of the sweetest, greatest people I’ve ever seen, you such a precious person, to help others, I feel like this lady you are helping, I couldn’t believe it happens but I found out the hard way, I lost my hubby after 40yrs, I miss him so much, I lay here and cry, can’t think of any thing elas I’m so lonely, don’t have any close friends,I’m disabled also, hurt all over can barley walk. I Talk to God, he’s my friend, it’s so nice to have a friend like you,God Bless you everything is looking amazing.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Lost my mother this year after having lost my dad the previous year. This is my house right now. It is so overwhelming and distressing! I can't have anyone come into my home!
You do a fabulous job. Keep up the good work. I think it’s wonderful how you give your time and effort to help those in need. You’re very sensitive to the people’s feelings and need. ❤❤❤❤❤
There are now many free cleaning channels. Every one has a specialty. Yours is organizing. And you have an honest heart. For me, I really liked this episode because you did everything yourself, no helpers. Wising you many, many more subscribers ❤
I'm so glad you haven't quit youtube. I love your channel! I hope people understand how important it is to watch the ads during your video, so that you're making money and can continue.
Thank you, Becki! I wish I could tell people to watch the ads because, you're right, that is the main way we make money on UA-cam, but I understand being bugged by the ads. It's nice that UA-cam has made some non-skippable ones so we usually get paid at least a little bit even when people skip the other ads. I do try to watch as many ads as I can on the channels I watch because I know it helps them and it's only a minute of my life. I usually just have their videos going on in the background while I'm doing something else anyway, so it's no big deal to let the ads run. I really appreciate you knowing that and appreciate you putting up with the ads because I know they can be annoying. 😜Every once in awhile I do find one that hooks me.😄
I learned from another UA-camr that all you have to do is watch 30 seconds of an ad and that counts towards getting paid. (This is how I understood what they said).
Please don't apologize for going "off the rail". I appreciate everyone keeping things real. You and Mack are different people and you explain things well. Keep up the great work. We love you! Audra
Remember Bonnie - part of Mack’s allure is he is a 6’4 man who cleans - you are a tiny little thing who also helps people - though she is tiny she is fierce- Shakespeare- also don’t underestimate how far you have come
Indeed. It is very different for a man, especially of his size, to have a cleaning channel, so he definitely stands out in this niche. I love that Shakespeare quote! I am trying to focus on how far I've come from now on. I am very grateful. Thanks so much for your kindness!
I just want you to know I appreciate what you do and have not a clue who the guy is you are comparing yourself to so YOU are much more valuable to me than whoever he is! Thanks for pushing through and making people’s lives better!
@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp also I think men are expected to be funny and sarcastic but there are people out there who just take a woman being funny or sarcastic as that woman being negative or something.
Your videos are very therapeutic & you have a beautiful heart. Sometimes, it's ok to take a break from giving of yourself, your time, your energy... so that you can take time to care for yourself & to let others care for you. Otherwise, you will get burnt out. I'd not let any negative Nancy's/Ned's get into your head or under your skin. There will ALWAYS BE those few who will judge, criticise & try to bring you down. They are not worth your attention, time, or energy. Hitting delete on those types of comments & messages can be VERY GOOD for your heart & mind...quite liberating. 🙏☝️💪💝
Oh Bonny. 😭 Thank you so much for allowing yourself to be vulnerable here. Your message about making someone else feel special is SO important. If you touched one person today with your wisdom (you did) there are endless ripple-effects of joy you are responsible for.
Trashing someone is called making a Splash. It's really bad how many people are negatively affected. It is exponential how it spreads or ripples before things calm down. If one person does it because of their disorder, I'm thinking NPD's, they are compelled to trash people. We must be No Contact with NPD's because they cannot exist and not make Splashes. They are not fixable, so No Contact is the only way. It's not you Bonney and btw Mac deletes anything but simple praise comments and you can too.
Bonnie you need to know you are a great person with amazing intentions! You never need to apologize for being your authentic self. I know sometimes the bad comments can be the loudest. Just know the rest of us are here cheering you on!!!!!❤❤❤
Bonnie, I enjoyed this video. First time viewer. Don’t apologize for the rambling: sometimes it’s asked to talk to strangers than loved ones. You did amazing work in this kitchen! I look forward to viewing other videos! Glad bless you and be safe! ❤😊
So sad what a depression does to someone physically and mentally Bonnie you are a great human being for helping her. I hope Nancy will keep it as you left it For a widow she has to much stuff I hope she donates it . Looking forward to Nancy update If she gives you full reins please convince her to donate as you mentioned 75% of her stuff
Joyous organising! My favourite parts were the plastic dishes and baking cupboard and the drawers. Lovely work, as always, and when you feel low, know that there are thousands of people out there who can see that you are making the world a better place every day.🥰
We are always so hard on ourselves. What I see & hear is a caring, understanding young woman with a great husband & kids, a close family, lovely house & the intelligence to figure out youtube! Everything is relative. We need that reminder once in a while. Mac has been doing this a while plus he has his son helping him. You are right. We can’t compare ourselves to others but I guess it’s in our nature to do so. Stay well! And do what’s good for you.
Thank you for sharing your high school story. I was that way in middle school. All it takes is one positive event to understand and believe in your self worth.
Thanks for sharing! Yeah, the girl I talked about was always very nice to me and would say hi whenever I passed her in the hallway, but I never knew that she actually knew my name until the experience that I shared. That meant more to me than anything. It's too bad it was near the end of my senior year and I wish I could have had that experience sooner to realize that there are some people who actually noticed me and cared, but better late than never and I will always be thankful to her for that. ❤️
Bonnie, I’m trying to get this episode to your HS story angel. She’s a couple years younger than me, I went to WX with her brother. ❤ I know she’d love to hear this.
Oh my! This is me.....what a good ole slap in the face. Thank you. I needed this. I did donate a bunch of blankets and cleaning supplies to my local animal shelter. This is a great wake up call. Bless your sweet heart.
I admire what you do so much. You are using your God given talents to bless those who need love and help so much. My mother always used to say, “You really gave me a boost.”, when I did something to help her. God bless you.👍❤️
I watched this earlier today. Don't you realize how rare your services are? Your clients are very greatful. You are a very good person, please don't doubt yourself
Bonnie be proud of how far you have come! I look forward to your videos! Your victim mentality show helped me more than you will ever know! I was the outcast in school too Part of being an introvert! No need to apologize! You have a caring heart! Please keep doing videos!
Do you also have dreams about redoing High School as you are now, knowing that everyone has their own issues even when they look like they have it all together, even the popular kids? I would be so much less concerned about my awkwardness and try to go out of my way to find those who are struggling. I always try to remind my kids that everyone is too busy worrying about how to fit in, so however awkward they might feel at this time, everyone else is in the same boat and it gets much better after high school. I guess I should say for most people it gets better. There are still quite a few adults who are bullies and need to grow up and they can make life difficult for their peers, but, generally speaking, adulthood is better than High School.😊
Ahhh! There’s nothing better than enjoying a hot cup of coffee and the sights and sounds of Bonnie scraping and scouring! Why is that? I love what you do and your clients are so fortunate to have such a lovely caring person helping them thru difficult times.
I love your gentle warm voice. You care about people and I love that about you. I love that you shared about HS. It made me feel like I should and can reach out to shy people too. I get social anxiety and don’t feel seen. This helped me, so thanks😀❤️Great video 👍
As Mel Robbins says, “Don’t swim in the toilet of comparison”. You have a unique inner genius of your own. You do wonderful work!! I used to hide out as well. 😢 I love the Maya Angelou quote.
I'm sorry to hear about this situation. Nancy must have loved her husband a great deal if losing him causes her to be depressed. I hope the clean home will at least ease her burden a little and give her some space. Thank you for helping her.
Bonnie, you are adorable and have such a sweet spirit. I love your ministry to others. I think you are doing a great job. You be you sweetness...Mac is certainly being Mac! lol We need both your personalities in this world.
You are so right...treating one another with compassion and empathy will always be what resonates...not the superficial stuff. Be the best you...that's all you can do. Take care!🎉🎉🎉
Oh and also! You are so so so right, a small number of dishes for one person is waaaay easier to keep clean! I say this from personal experience! But this is a truly stunning amount of dishes for one person.
I can’t understand that in my mind. They still dirty the same amount. Is it because they are “forced” to wash them because they have run out of clean ones? Not hating just trying to understand.
I admire your ability ro help someone who has chronic grief. You need to be super proud of yourself. You are the brave, loving, caring soul who is a problem solver. Ignore the negativity. None of those critics are donating theit time and resources to help the client out or most other people for that matter.....Rock on!
This poor woman has four times more kitchen items than I do and I have a family of six. She really needs someone to help her purge what she doesn’t need. I can’t imagine how hard it might be for her, but it will be a huge relief when her home turns into a tidy comfortable place to live that she can keep clean on her own. I hope that since it’s been almost 10 years since her husband’s passing that this will be the turning point where she can begin doing the inner and outer work to move forward.
That’s exactly it! The relief she would feel would be tremendous with less stuff. It’s overwhelming for someone without her challenges, so once you add grief and depression, she’s not giving herself the best chance for calm and success.
What a GREAT JOB!❤ Sometimes, things come out because they need to come out. You’re an amazing human being ❤God has given you a gift that you are fully utilizing. Thank you for sharing such a special moment. It can be very intimidating to let yourself be open and vulnerable. I think you did more good for yourself and others that can glean from your experience and deep emotions. I wish you came in a bottle. Thank you for all you are and do. God bless you.
I watch, Barbie & Mack’s videos also. You are all 3 very different in what you do. I have been motivated by Mack to declutter & cleaning & by you with organizing & cleaning. I hope I never need Barbie’s service. lol But her videos make me aware of how far people can sink into a level of depression that makes you unable to function even on a basic level. So all that to say, Please keep doing your videos. You are appreciated & needed.
It's also so nice to hear the voice of an autistic woman in this space. As someone whose struggle with neurodivergence has affected my ability to keep my house orderly and clean using NT approaches, it's so helpful to see and hear someone with a perspective closer to my own talk about cleaning and organizing. Mack is great, but he's too tall to see things from my perspective, lol. 😜 Seriously though, the absolute joy you derive from making things clean, and your wholesome kindness and openness are a comfort and inspiration. Keep being you.
Women are usually criticized harsher for things where more grace may be extended to men, for the same things. In my experiences anyway, school, family, workplace, maybe You Tube?
I love the "going off the rails" because now we know you more intimately. Keep doing a little of that every video because cleaning is so restorative and helpful and the personal touch allows your viewers to feel more connected to you.
Energizer Bonnie, I love you for who you are. I look up to you for your helpful, positive, determined spirit. You are one cool person and a brave one at that. It takes a lot of have the gumption to start a UA-cam channel, put yourself in front of the world, and figure things out on a whim, a plan, or a gut feeling. Plus you have skills so many people are not born with. You are a business starter and owner for all your adult life. You know how to start with a mess and completely transform a strangers life. Im always beyond impressed. You mean so much to so many people!
Bonnie my dear, I believe you come into the lives of your clients because you were meant to. The support you provide lifts them up and puts them in a good place. So, you can count on us to support you and lift you up and keep you in a good place. It’s what friends do for one another. I am proud of your perseverance. You are not a quitter so keep your head up and keep on keepin’ on!❤
First of all, I just wanted to say thank you so much for your hard working and caring about people who have been through this experience. You are the hero in their lives. I know is not easy, but God gave you the ability to do that. And your kindness and caring for others is what a lot of people don’t have. I hope you’re channel growing up to be able to help more people. I wish you the best of all. God bless you and your family.❤🙏
Thank you so much Bonnie for sharing your heart!! I know a lot of us have felt that very same way you did back in high school! Hopefully, we can take that going forward and help someone else!!
Don't sell yourself short. You are a very good speaker, I enjoy listening to you, and I am sure everyone who watches you feels the same way. Love the cleaning, love the conversation, love the enthusiasm you give out about your work. Keep it up.
Oh how wonderful Bonnie, God knew just who to send this lady - you! All your experience with Mira now goes right into helping her!! Scrapbook heaven 😍 Let her watch one of your videos with Mira, maybe it will give her ideas for her own space. Love this so much!!
Thank you so much for sharing yourself with us - it was really very poignant - I remember trying to find some place I could look like I fit in in high school - I am so glad you have a memory like that of someone who was kind and that was a great lesson to share and something Mack could never do - that rawness cuts past the front we all try to put up. ❤❤
It is very nice of you to help people who needs help. Getting out of the "victim" spot can be a very tough thing to do, especially for those who have been beaten down one way or another, be it by life or other people (or, as is also the case at times, by themselves). I am very happy for those you're helping, that they're having someone willing to do this. I know for sure that your work is very important to people, and hopefully, it will help them to turn things around. :)
You are an angel to help people. I can't believe what you have done. Amazing. I am a widow of 13 years. Lost my husband when I was 50 and I can tell you the struggle is real. I understand how the woman feels.
One of my peers would always smile at me while in the halls. Her brother was in my class. Yes saying high to someone verbal or non verbal can make a difference in a person day.
Can't wait for next week and you are free to say things it gives us more understanding of you. I am so happy you do this for people I really need it myself I am 70 years old and disabled but watching you it inspires me to do as much as I can do at one time. I have too many things in my kitchen and this has inspired me to get rid of most of teh utensils I am working on sorting today wish me luck
Oh Bonnie, you made me cry too😢. You have such a big and beautiful heart, we need more people like you in this world. I can't wait to see the pantry video so much to do. Have a wonderful holiday weekend😁
I know I would not be the only one that would seriously miss it if you no longer made videos. I enjoy your videos a lot! Please know that many UA-camrs struggle over staying motivated due to discouraging analytics. What I have found is: as long as they remain authentic, that if they do what makes them happy UA-camrs, people are happy to watch. As for views and subscribers, you should be aware that UA-cam has been experiencing technical issues across the board. One UA-camr I've watched for years suddenly had videos disappear, another had 100's of videos that suddenly showed ZERO views. Please don't always assume it is you and your content Bonnie, you do a great job!
Thank you for sharing that. I am also hearing that some people are being inundated with political ads, which are never fun to watch, so they click off of those as soon as they possibly can, so that may be part of the reason for the drastic drop in ad revenue is because of this being an election year (here in the U.S. - not sure where you're at). Super frustrating, but at least there is a little validation in knowing it's not just me and I just need to stick with it and hope next year will be much better. Thanks so much for your support!
I was watching a video that said it had zero views that had 41 thumbs up how is that even possible so you know it’s messed up. For the viewer it doesn’t matter that much if it’s messed up but for the content creator that’s revenue, that’s money in their bank, so UA-cam get it together! I don’t want to lose any of my favorite UA-camrs like Bonnie!
@@LynsAlteredArtsexactly. That's also why WHEN it IS possible we need to support a creator's alternative revenue streams so they are not reliant on ads alone. 💓
I really really relate to what you were saying about the challenge of only comparing yourself to yourself and appreciating one’s own growth. Sometimes UA-cam feels like a terrible popularity contest. Which really is no good because some folks have 55K subscribers and some have 105 subscribers. And those numbers rarely tell the truth about the most creative, entertaining, inspiring content. You are funny, interesting, and super smart about how to clean and organize things!!! Thank you for being exactly the way you are!!! ❤❤❤
You are so kind and such a great organizer! I could have been your bestie in high school as I was also an extreme introvert and avoided people. I also became a house cleaner to earn money for college, so I love watching your channel to motivate myself to clean my own home. ❤
A HUGE thank you to all of the "Angie Greers" out there! 🙏 I'm so proud of you for letting yourself be vulnerable. By doing that you're being transparent and showing the rest of us that it's OK to open up. I think that even though some of us had it tougher AT school then others, you just never know what happens behind closed doors. People aren't born mean, they learn it somewhere and from someone. Keep putting out great content and keep being YOU! Even Mack would tell you not to compare yourself to him. We're all different people. Just because you do the same type of "thing" as Mack, doesn't mean you don't need to keep it about you... GOOD LUCK 🤞, here comes 100k! 👍🤟
Comparison robs all of us of joy. I have to fight it a lot. I am proud of you for sharing this with us. You are doing a wonderful job and are really helping people.
I’ve had the conversation with my husband about the amount of dishes we should have on multiple occasions. 😂 He thinks we should have considerably more than we do so we don’t have to do dishes as often, I like that we’re forced to do dishes daily to keep up and that there are never more than about a day’s worth to wash.
Yes! I recently got rid of a lot of our extra Tupperware because now if we ever run out, I know that's a sign we have way too many leftovers sitting in our fridge that have not been eaten and that it's time to clean out the fridge and get back some of those Tupperware containers. An inconvenience for just a few minutes, but overall, it's a lot easier than having piles of dishes everywhere and nowhere to store them.😁
Shuddering at your husbsbds idea. Dishes should be washed after every meal. Otherwise they will attract bugs, rodents, and smell 😮. You're correct. Please show him this. Eewl.
In general, these things are not very expensive. If you happen to run out of Tupperware one day, you can simply buy some. I now throw away containers without lids or lids without containers. No more “Oh, I could use this at some point”. If the plastic is discolored or smells strange, I throw it away too. There's one drawer for Tupperware and if something no longer fits in there, I have to decide what can go. It needed years until I realized that I'm not that poor to be forced to keep everything.
This is my first time on this channel (which I’m really enjoying) and so much of the clutter in this video really made me think of Dana k white from a slob comes clean and how your cleaning would easily tie into her decluttering method. A key concept she taught me is that I can keep anything, but not everything, and whatever I keep has to fit in the container or space I have. So if the cabinet for pans is too cluttered that things are not easy to put away or get to then it’s time to declutter. It’s not that those things aren’t useful, I just don’t have room. Same thing for blankets, or clothes, or craft supplies.
Yes, Mac has a different style. He works with different people and different needs. He also has been doing it longer. I have been watching cleaning, lawn care, etc. videos. They are addictive. One lawn person had to take a break but he has inspired people from all over the world. They video their lawn businesses. It should be a great feeling to be an inspiration to others. You are an inspiration to me-😅😊
Bonnie ... I just discovered you today, and I loved this video! And particularly warmed to your honesty and vulnerability. You're touching people's lives, and you'll never know just how many or how much. Keep doing you, I see magnificent blessings and success ahead for you! Watching from Sydney, Australia. All subscribed and looking forward to more! ❤🇦🇺
Bonnie please don't compare yourself to others! There's no need to apologize and the people who can understand your words with the kind intent they were meant with, are the people here who stay to come back and watch you! We could all learn tremendously from your kind heart and selfless acts that you share. I promise that your work is not going without recognition and support, it is truly invaluable what you do Bonnie! The mental health awareness that you spread is also so important to so many people and to the amazing community you've built on yt. You're making a kinder world and one that sees people through less judgement.

Remember Bonnie - part of Mack’s allure is he is a 6’4 man who cleans - you are a tiny little thing who also helps people - though she is tiny she is fierce- Shakespeare- also don’t underestimate how far you have come
Indeed. It is very different for a man, especially of his size, to have a cleaning channel, so he definitely stands out in this niche. I love that Shakespeare quote! I am trying to focus on how far I've come from now on. I am very grateful. Thanks so much for your kindness!
I just want you to know I appreciate what you do and have not a clue who the guy is you are comparing yourself to so YOU are much more valuable to me than whoever he is! Thanks for pushing through and making people’s lives better!
Don't worry many would prefer your serene calm disposition way of doing it compared to others @@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp
@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp also I think men are expected to be funny and sarcastic but there are people out there who just take a woman being funny or sarcastic as that woman being negative or something.
Your talents are amazing! Do your best and keep going! You can only compare you with you. You make people feel better!❤
Thank you so much!!
Your videos are very therapeutic & you have a beautiful heart. Sometimes, it's ok to take a break from giving of yourself, your time, your energy... so that you can take time to care for yourself & to let others care for you. Otherwise, you will get burnt out. I'd not let any negative Nancy's/Ned's get into your head or under your skin. There will ALWAYS BE those few who will judge, criticise & try to bring you down. They are not worth your attention, time, or energy. Hitting delete on those types of comments & messages can be VERY GOOD for your heart & mind...quite liberating. 🙏☝️💪💝
Oh Bonny. 😭
Thank you so much for allowing yourself to be vulnerable here. Your message about making someone else feel special is SO important. If you touched one person today with your wisdom (you did) there are endless ripple-effects of joy you are responsible for.
Trashing someone is called making a Splash. It's really bad how many people are negatively affected. It is exponential how it spreads or ripples before things calm down. If one person does it because of their disorder, I'm thinking NPD's, they are compelled to trash people. We must be No Contact with NPD's because they cannot exist and not make Splashes. They are not fixable, so No Contact is the only way. It's not you Bonney and btw Mac deletes anything but simple praise comments and you can too.
Agreed 💯 percent.
So true- those 'ripples' are powerful and positive!
I appreciate that. Thank you. 🙏💞
Agreed!!!
Bonnie you need to know you are a great person with amazing intentions! You never need to apologize for being your authentic self. I know sometimes the bad comments can be the loudest. Just know the rest of us are here cheering you on!!!!!❤❤❤
Bonnie, you are making a difference in the world of those that you help. One person at a time. We all could learn from you.❤
🙏
@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wpwho in the world would leave you negative comments??? How terrible.
I bet it takes 1,000 good comments to override the negative effects of 1 mean comment.
Boy, I’d love to help this lady declutter if she was willing. Soooo many duplicates!
It is nice to hear that you would help her.
Not many people do what you do. My son is not much of a talker either so I understand. We love you for your heart and humanity. ❤😂
Bonnie, I enjoyed this video. First time viewer. Don’t apologize for the rambling: sometimes it’s asked to talk to strangers than loved ones. You did amazing work in this kitchen! I look forward to viewing other videos! Glad bless you and be safe! ❤😊
I firmly believe that the measure of success and accomplishment is not where you are but how far you have come.
One time someone told me “comparison is the thief of joy” and that has stuck with me for many years now.
Yes. I love that saying. I actually had that written down to share before the quote from Maya Angelou came to mind. It's a very true statement.
I love that.
Wasn't it Teddy Roosevelt who said it first?
So sad what a depression does to someone physically and mentally Bonnie you are a great human being for helping her. I hope Nancy will keep it as you left it For a widow she has to much stuff I hope she donates it . Looking forward to Nancy update If she gives you full reins please convince her to donate as you mentioned 75% of her stuff
Joyous organising! My favourite parts were the plastic dishes and baking cupboard and the drawers. Lovely work, as always, and when you feel low, know that there are thousands of people out there who can see that you are making the world a better place every day.🥰
Thanks so much! 😊
Lovely to hear your thoughts not only about cleaning, but about life and situations, feelings ❤❤❤❤❤❤thank you
😊🙏❤️
We are always so hard on ourselves. What I see & hear is a caring, understanding young woman with a great husband & kids, a close family, lovely house & the intelligence to figure out youtube! Everything is relative. We need that reminder once in a while. Mac has been doing this a while plus he has his son helping him. You are right. We can’t compare ourselves to others but I guess it’s in our nature to do so. Stay well! And do what’s good for you.
I'm often struck by how smart Bonnie is with the technology etc.
Well said. Thank you!🙏
You’re really good at cleaning. So many people need help and can’t afford to pay. God Bless you
Thank you for sharing your high school story. I was that way in middle school. All it takes is one positive event to understand and believe in your self worth.
Thanks for sharing! Yeah, the girl I talked about was always very nice to me and would say hi whenever I passed her in the hallway, but I never knew that she actually knew my name until the experience that I shared. That meant more to me than anything. It's too bad it was near the end of my senior year and I wish I could have had that experience sooner to realize that there are some people who actually noticed me and cared, but better late than never and I will always be thankful to her for that. ❤️
Bonnie, I’m trying to get this episode to your HS story angel. She’s a couple years younger than me, I went to WX with her brother. ❤ I know she’d love to hear this.
Oh my! This is me.....what a good ole slap in the face. Thank you. I needed this. I did donate a bunch of blankets and cleaning supplies to my local animal shelter. This is a great wake up call. Bless your sweet heart.
I admire what you do so much. You are using your God given talents to bless those who need love and help so much. My mother always used to say, “You really gave me a boost.”, when I did something to help her. God bless you.👍❤️
Thank you so much! And your mom sounds like a sweetheart. ❤️
I watched this earlier today. Don't you realize how rare your services are? Your clients are very greatful. You are a very good person, please don't doubt yourself
Bonnie be proud of how far you have come! I look forward to your videos! Your victim mentality show helped me more than you will ever know!
I was the outcast in school too Part of being an introvert!
No need to apologize!
You have a caring heart!
Please keep doing videos!
And all the introverts say amen, we know what Bonnie's been through.
Do you also have dreams about redoing High School as you are now, knowing that everyone has their own issues even when they look like they have it all together, even the popular kids? I would be so much less concerned about my awkwardness and try to go out of my way to find those who are struggling. I always try to remind my kids that everyone is too busy worrying about how to fit in, so however awkward they might feel at this time, everyone else is in the same boat and it gets much better after high school. I guess I should say for most people it gets better. There are still quite a few adults who are bullies and need to grow up and they can make life difficult for their peers, but, generally speaking, adulthood is better than High School.😊
Amen!
Ahhh! There’s nothing better than enjoying a hot cup of coffee and the sights and sounds of Bonnie scraping and scouring! Why is that? I love what you do and your clients are so fortunate to have such a lovely caring person helping them thru difficult times.
Aw, you're so sweet. Thank you 😊 💓
I love your gentle warm voice. You care about people and I love that about you. I love that you shared about HS. It made me feel like I should and can reach out to shy people too. I get social anxiety and don’t feel seen. This helped me, so thanks😀❤️Great video 👍
As Mel Robbins says, “Don’t swim in the toilet of comparison”. You have a unique inner genius of your own. You do wonderful work!!
I used to hide out as well. 😢
I love the Maya Angelou quote.
😘🙏
Bonnie!! You are amazing 🎉 Funny, caring, hardworking, intelligent
🙏💓
I'm sorry to hear about this situation. Nancy must have loved her husband a great deal if losing him causes her to be depressed. I hope the clean home will at least ease her burden a little and give her some space. Thank you for helping her.
Bonnie, you are adorable and have such a sweet spirit. I love your ministry to others. I think you are doing a great job. You be you sweetness...Mac is certainly being Mac! lol We need both your personalities in this world.
You are so kind.🙏
( Midwest Magic Cleaning told us to go check out your channel ) What a transformation you did a really good job. Keep up the good work Bonnie
I think there are times we discredit ourselves. What you do for others is so inspirational. Your heart shines through of what you do for others
I appreciate that, Beverly.🙏
Don't apologise for showing your emotions, you are human. And so so kind. Amazing job on this kitchen too Bonnie. 👏
Thanks so much.❤️❤️❤️
I love it when you clean and organize for someone in need. This one is quite a puzzle as she owns so much. Time for her to lighten the load.
You are so right...treating one another with compassion and empathy will always be what resonates...not the superficial stuff. Be the best you...that's all you can do. Take care!🎉🎉🎉
Absolutely!!🙏
Oh and also! You are so so so right, a small number of dishes for one person is waaaay easier to keep clean! I say this from personal experience! But this is a truly stunning amount of dishes for one person.
I can’t understand that in my mind. They still dirty the same amount. Is it because they are “forced” to wash them because they have run out of clean ones? Not hating just trying to understand.
I admire your ability ro help someone who has chronic grief. You need to be super proud of yourself. You are the brave, loving, caring soul who is a problem solver. Ignore the negativity. None of those critics are donating theit time and resources to help the client out or most other people for that matter.....Rock on!
We love you just the way you are!!❤
🙏💞
This poor woman has four times more kitchen items than I do and I have a family of six. She really needs someone to help her purge what she doesn’t need. I can’t imagine how hard it might be for her, but it will be a huge relief when her home turns into a tidy comfortable place to live that she can keep clean on her own. I hope that since it’s been almost 10 years since her husband’s passing that this will be the turning point where she can begin doing the inner and outer work to move forward.
That’s exactly it! The relief she would feel would be tremendous with less stuff. It’s overwhelming for someone without her challenges, so once you add grief and depression, she’s not giving herself the best chance for calm and success.
Out of all the cleaning channels I watch, yours is my favorite❤
That's so nice of you. Thank you!💞😊
What a GREAT JOB!❤
Sometimes, things come out because they need to come out. You’re an amazing human being ❤God has given you a gift that you are fully utilizing.
Thank you for sharing such a special moment. It can be very intimidating to let yourself be open and vulnerable. I think you did more good for yourself and others that can glean from your experience and deep emotions.
I wish you came in a bottle.
Thank you for all you are and do.
God bless you.
Oh, thank you.❤️
So many pots n dishes...you are my hero🎉🎉
I watch, Barbie & Mack’s videos also. You are all 3 very different in what you do. I have been motivated by Mack to declutter & cleaning & by you with organizing & cleaning. I hope I never need Barbie’s service. lol But her videos make me aware of how far people can sink into a level of depression that makes you unable to function even on a basic level. So all that to say, Please keep doing your videos. You are appreciated & needed.
Aw, thank you! Yes, Barbie is definitely in a class all her own. 😜
It's also so nice to hear the voice of an autistic woman in this space. As someone whose struggle with neurodivergence has affected my ability to keep my house orderly and clean using NT approaches, it's so helpful to see and hear someone with a perspective closer to my own talk about cleaning and organizing. Mack is great, but he's too tall to see things from my perspective, lol. 😜
Seriously though, the absolute joy you derive from making things clean, and your wholesome kindness and openness are a comfort and inspiration. Keep being you.
@@jlaurelcLOL! Yeah, Mack's too tall to see things from most people's perspectives. Glad I can represent a shorter ND population!
Women are usually criticized harsher for things where more grace may be extended to men, for the same things. In my experiences anyway, school, family, workplace, maybe You Tube?
Please don't quit UA-cam!!! I look so forward to your video content. You are such a sweetheart.❤
Aw, thank you! I'm not going anywhere. I'm sure I'll stick it out. Some weeks are just harder than others.
Love seeing you Tetris everything into the Tupperware cupboard.
I love the "going off the rails" because now we know you more intimately. Keep doing a little of that every video because cleaning is so restorative and helpful and the personal touch allows your viewers to feel more connected to you.
Energizer Bonnie, I love you for who you are. I look up to you for your helpful, positive, determined spirit. You are one cool person and a brave one at that. It takes a lot of have the gumption to start a UA-cam channel, put yourself in front of the world, and figure things out on a whim, a plan, or a gut feeling. Plus you have skills so many people are not born with. You are a business starter and owner for all your adult life. You know how to start with a mess and completely transform a strangers life. Im always beyond impressed. You mean so much to so many people!
Thank you so much! I needed to hear that today. It's been one of those days.😮💨 Thanks for cheering me up with your encouragement.🙏❤️
That’s a good motto. “I do what I can in the time that I have.” That belongs on a shirt. Or a cape!!
😅
U are amazing. Keep up your good deeds and great work. Enjoy all your daily adventures.
I can’t wait to see what you do to the pantry. I’m a fan of seeing a pantry transformation.
I loved finding your video! It helps motivate me watching others clean! I think its wonderful how you help others!!
Bonnie I love your personality ❤️ You are real be proud of who you are
You are so amazing and kind!
The older I get the more I sometimes think we're all a beautiful mess on and off throughout life, or maybe always. You are a lovely soul.
Bonnie my dear, I believe you come into the lives of your clients because you were meant to. The support you provide lifts them up and puts them in a good place. So, you can count on us to support you and lift you up and keep you in a good place. It’s what friends do for one another. I am proud of your perseverance. You are not a quitter so keep your head up and keep on keepin’ on!❤
Thank you. I appreciate that!
First of all, I just wanted to say thank you so much for your hard working and caring about people who have been through this experience. You are the hero in their lives. I know is not easy, but God gave you the ability to do that. And your kindness and caring for others is what a lot of people don’t have. I hope you’re channel growing up to be able to help more people. I wish you the best of all. God bless you and your family.❤🙏
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Bonnie for sharing your heart!! I know a lot of us have felt that very same way you did back in high school! Hopefully, we can take that going forward and help someone else!!
Bonnie, I'm glad you talked about the victim mentality. I feel the same way and hearing you made me feel better. Thanks for being genuine ✨️ ❤️
Don't sell yourself short. You are a very good speaker, I enjoy listening to you, and I am sure everyone who watches you feels the same way. Love the cleaning, love the conversation, love the enthusiasm you give out about your work. Keep it up.
Oh how wonderful Bonnie, God knew just who to send this lady - you! All your experience with Mira now goes right into helping her!! Scrapbook heaven 😍 Let her watch one of your videos with Mira, maybe it will give her ideas for her own space. Love this so much!!
I told her she needs to watch Mira's channel. She would relate so well with her.😊
Thank you so much for sharing yourself with us - it was really very poignant - I remember trying to find some place I could look like I fit in in high school - I am so glad you have a memory like that of someone who was kind and that was a great lesson to share and something Mack could never do - that rawness cuts past the front we all try to put up. ❤❤
It is very nice of you to help people who needs help. Getting out of the "victim" spot can be a very tough thing to do, especially for those who have been beaten down one way or another, be it by life or other people (or, as is also the case at times, by themselves). I am very happy for those you're helping, that they're having someone willing to do this. I know for sure that your work is very important to people, and hopefully, it will help them to turn things around. :)
I love to watch you organize! Like conducting an orchestra 💕 you make beautiful music 😉
🙏
You are an angel to help people. I can't believe what you have done. Amazing. I am a widow of 13 years. Lost my husband when I was 50 and I can tell you the struggle is real. I understand how the woman feels.
It does sound like you can relate. I'm sure that's very difficult and a huge life change.🙏
I would be so overwhelmed cleaning that kitchen. Bless you for helping people who desperately need help. You’re such a kind hearted lady. 🥰
Hi you are a great human being❤❤❤❤
Oh, thank you!
What a wonderful person you are 🇬🇧🇺🇸🌸🌸
One of my peers would always smile at me while in the halls. Her brother was in my class. Yes saying high to someone verbal or non verbal can make a difference in a person day.
And they probably had no idea how much that meant to you. Such a sweet, small gesture.😊
I know that Mira is much more cheerful since you helped and befriended her. You change lives. I love your videos.
You are so kind! Thank you!
Can't wait for next week and you are free to say things it gives us more understanding of you. I am so happy you do this for people I really need it myself I am 70 years old and disabled but watching you it inspires me to do as much as I can do at one time. I have too many things in my kitchen and this has inspired me to get rid of most of teh utensils I am working on sorting today wish me luck
I am disabled also and only use Correllware now. It is light and doesn't break. Much easier to grasp especially when wet.
Thank you, Evelyn. And, good luck!!😄
You are so relatable. You have no idea. Keep going ❤
Thanks for being a caring person. You are a lifeline for those who are in need. ❤
You are a kind and compassionate person. No need to apologize for who you are. Love your videos! God bless you. ❤😊
Oh Bonnie, you made me cry too😢. You have such a big and beautiful heart, we need more people like you in this world. I can't wait to see the pantry video so much to do. Have a wonderful holiday weekend😁
Thank you, Teresa!❤️❤️
I know I would not be the only one that would seriously miss it if you no longer made videos. I enjoy your videos a lot! Please know that many UA-camrs struggle over staying motivated due to discouraging analytics. What I have found is: as long as they remain authentic, that if they do what makes them happy UA-camrs, people are happy to watch. As for views and subscribers, you should be aware that UA-cam has been experiencing technical issues across the board. One UA-camr I've watched for years suddenly had videos disappear, another had 100's of videos that suddenly showed ZERO views. Please don't always assume it is you and your content Bonnie, you do a great job!
Thank you for sharing that. I am also hearing that some people are being inundated with political ads, which are never fun to watch, so they click off of those as soon as they possibly can, so that may be part of the reason for the drastic drop in ad revenue is because of this being an election year (here in the U.S. - not sure where you're at). Super frustrating, but at least there is a little validation in knowing it's not just me and I just need to stick with it and hope next year will be much better. Thanks so much for your support!
I was watching a video that said it had zero views that had 41 thumbs up how is that even possible so you know it’s messed up. For the viewer it doesn’t matter that much if it’s messed up but for the content creator that’s revenue, that’s money in their bank, so UA-cam get it together! I don’t want to lose any of my favorite UA-camrs like Bonnie!
@@LynsAlteredArtsexactly. That's also why WHEN it IS possible we need to support a creator's alternative revenue streams so they are not reliant on ads alone. 💓
I really really relate to what you were saying about the challenge of only comparing yourself to yourself and appreciating one’s own growth. Sometimes UA-cam feels like a terrible popularity contest. Which really is no good because some folks have 55K subscribers and some have 105 subscribers. And those numbers rarely tell the truth about the most creative, entertaining, inspiring content. You are funny, interesting, and super smart about how to clean and organize things!!! Thank you for being exactly the way you are!!! ❤❤❤
You said that perfectly. It really isn't a measure of your worth as a person. I'm trying to remember that.😊 Thank you so much for your kind words!
I can honestly say that I watch a lot of “other” cleaning videos with the sound off because of the crazy narration. I always listen to yours. 🥰👍
😊 thank you❤️
Your personal story was for me. I’m still that way, and I’m in my 60s.
Thank for what you do. I will always watch and share as I can.
I appreciate you sharing that. 🙏
We love you, Bonnie! You are changing lives! You're amazing
How many rice spoons/paddles can one person use? She had SO many kitchen ‘stuffs’. Bless her!! 😊
You are so kind and such a great organizer! I could have been your bestie in high school as I was also an extreme introvert and avoided people. I also became a house cleaner to earn money for college, so I love watching your channel to motivate myself to clean my own home. ❤
I loved watching the cleaned utensils etc. being put back in the drawers and cupboards. Well done on your Tetris skills.
Thanks so much! 😊
Wow what a difference you make!!Thanks for your kindness and hard work! You be you- unique and special.
You’re such an amazingly lovely human. Please don’t loose sight of that. WE LOVE YOU FOR YOU ❤
🙏🥰
BLESS you pulling out the stove!! Why does no one do this?!!! I swear, it's the yuckiest place in ANY kitchen! Thorough is thoughtful!
A HUGE thank you to all of the "Angie Greers" out there! 🙏
I'm so proud of you for letting yourself be vulnerable. By doing that you're being transparent and showing the rest of us that it's OK to open up.
I think that even though some of us had it tougher AT school then others, you just never know what happens behind closed doors.
People aren't born mean, they learn it somewhere and from someone.
Keep putting out great content and keep being YOU! Even Mack would tell you not to compare yourself to him. We're all different people. Just because you do the same type of "thing" as Mack, doesn't mean you don't need to keep it about you... GOOD LUCK 🤞, here comes 100k! 👍🤟
Thank you! I really appreciate that. ❤️❤️❤️
Comparison robs all of us of joy. I have to fight it a lot. I am proud of you for sharing this with us. You are doing a wonderful job and are really helping people.
Thank you so much.😊🙏
Enjoyed watching.
I’ve had the conversation with my husband about the amount of dishes we should have on multiple occasions. 😂 He thinks we should have considerably more than we do so we don’t have to do dishes as often, I like that we’re forced to do dishes daily to keep up and that there are never more than about a day’s worth to wash.
Yes! I recently got rid of a lot of our extra Tupperware because now if we ever run out, I know that's a sign we have way too many leftovers sitting in our fridge that have not been eaten and that it's time to clean out the fridge and get back some of those Tupperware containers. An inconvenience for just a few minutes, but overall, it's a lot easier than having piles of dishes everywhere and nowhere to store them.😁
Shuddering at your husbsbds idea. Dishes should be washed after every meal. Otherwise they will attract bugs, rodents, and smell 😮. You're correct. Please show him this. Eewl.
@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wpPerfect System!🙌🏻👍👏👌
In general, these things are not very expensive. If you happen to run out of Tupperware one day, you can simply buy some.
I now throw away containers without lids or lids without containers. No more “Oh, I could use this at some point”. If the plastic is discolored or smells strange, I throw it away too. There's one drawer for Tupperware and if something no longer fits in there, I have to decide what can go.
It needed years until I realized that I'm not that poor to be forced to keep everything.
This is my first time on this channel (which I’m really enjoying) and so much of the clutter in this video really made me think of Dana k white from a slob comes clean and how your cleaning would easily tie into her decluttering method.
A key concept she taught me is that I can keep anything, but not everything, and whatever I keep has to fit in the container or space I have. So if the cabinet for pans is too cluttered that things are not easy to put away or get to then it’s time to declutter.
It’s not that those things aren’t useful, I just don’t have room.
Same thing for blankets, or clothes, or craft supplies.
Thank you Bonnie for your honesty. I love your videos, please don't give up UA-cam. Sending hugs 🤗 and love ❤️ from the UK 🇬🇧
Yes, Mac has a different style. He works with different people and different needs. He also has been doing it longer. I have been watching cleaning, lawn care, etc. videos. They are addictive. One lawn person had to take a break but he has inspired people from all over the world. They video their lawn businesses. It should be a great feeling to be an inspiration to others. You are an inspiration to me-😅😊
Thank you, Barbara!❤️
Bonnie ... I just discovered you today, and I loved this video! And particularly warmed to your honesty and vulnerability. You're touching people's lives, and you'll never know just how many or how much. Keep doing you, I see magnificent blessings and success ahead for you! Watching from Sydney, Australia. All subscribed and looking forward to more! ❤🇦🇺
