I love this topic Anna. My daughter and I have been discussing this lately. I worked in a high stress job for 31 years for one of the worlds largest chemical companies and I got so accustomed to pushing all the time. Now I’m retired and I set so many goals and standards for myself that it stresses me out. My daughter says, “ mom you are retired slow down and enjoy life.” I have had to slow down so much because of my health that when I feel good I want to get so much accomplished. But since my daughter has told me that I have been purposely trying to slow down and stay in bed a little longer if I want to and it makes such a difference. This was a great topic. Love in Christ
For the first time in 3 years I’m not living by the clock! It feels like a revival in my soul! My husband & I have been riding our bikes, waking up when we wake up, eating when we r hungry….makes us so greatful! God bless, John 3:16
In my family we get together near gatlinburg, to and rent cabins. We gather at someone’s cabin for breakfast and split off doing different things we want to do. Then we gather together again at someone’s else’s cabin. It is so much fun.
I’ve never known anything but Southern time. I guess I never really thought about it, the fact that not everyone in America is living on Southern time. Makes me feel sad for them. Loved this video, it’s my life 💯, wouldn’t want it any other way! Happy 4th ❤️🤍💙
I'm not able to retire just yet, but I have been off work this entire week and it has been such a blessing. Cooking meals that I want to cook, working in my garden, organizing my home... feels so good.❤❤
Anna I absolutely enjoyed this video ,you are so right!! For me I still need to live by the clock tremendously,I work a lot and I do everything around my house which is a tremendous amount of work ! But I certainly hope when I retire which still is years away that I will do what you do ,take time to enjoy life ,and not live by the clock,oh how I wish that to happen to me !! I love the swifter,isn’t it great,I used it constantly!!You have beautiful legs Anna ,you are beautiful!! I love your videos
I’m a lot like you. I take pleasure caring for our home. It’s so hot in Phoenix the past couple of weeks, I get up extra early to spend a bit of time outside. I have a hard time allowing myself to slow down but I promise to do so this summer. Like you, I have to force myself to stay in bed but I do love early morning. I really enjoyed this video as I drink my coffee this morning ❤
I retired 3/2017❤ My little man came into my🐶 three months later fast-forward 7 1/2 years I still haven’t slowed down and him and I live are the only ones in our home😂😂 I take so much pride to my house. I’m always redecorating, refurbishing. I’m also very active when I walk and my weights. I am my Church’s financial Secretary/treasurer so that keeps me busy also. I have four children and 12 grandchildren are grown so they keep me busy. Also I just love the days when I can just go for a walk, come home, piddle around the house and relax. I’m usually up at 5 o’clock, but I’m upstairs in bed with me and Otis by 730 but I don’t go to sleep right away obviously. I like it that I can get the vacuum out at 3 o’clock in the afternoon and vacuum all downstairs if I want, or do a wash at night. Tommy and I look forward to retirement, but unfortunately with his stroke at 56, he passed away at 64. I am so blessed that I found your channel, Anna my friend ❤have a blessed fourth to you and Ernie, stay safe🇺🇸 God bless America.
Anna, this was one of your best videos. Loved your message and music. I have been retired for 5 years now and still catch myself doing, doing, doing; maybe all the wrong things. I am going to dollow your advice and remive yhe clock 2 days a week and see how it goes. I dream of going on my deck and just enjoying everything around me first thing in the morning and then go for a walk (for exercise). Am going yo make it happen. ❤
Great advice, summer moves so fast I will be intentional on removing the clock and enjoying the moments, I love the early morning in the summer I water the plants and do outside work before 9am and the heat of the day, then move inside and do a run through and a few loads of laundry. The video was so peaceful great food for thought!
Hey Friend, Happy Saturday. I agree time goes by fast so we need to enjoy and embrace our days. Looking at the clock just discourages us but being able to take our eyes off the clock will truly please and benefit us. 😊🥰
Good Afternoon Anna...you've discovered the secret of southern living..slower pace, easy days...my son lives in Ohio, when we visit I've noticed it's a faster pace there..I've lived my entire life in South Louisiana, we take everything easier (except hurricane season !! ) ..love seeing you embrace this slower pace of life, better for mental and physical health ..have a great July 4th and lassiez les bon temps rouler !! ⚜️🇺🇸⚜️🍷⚜️🎆⚜️
I will try. But I don't have a husband like yours. And my husband (retired) is home all the time. I don't want to sound bad, but i enjoy days when I can be alone. Spending time outside is kinda like that. But i will try to relax. Thank you Anna!
I loved and appreciated everything you said Anna. You are so right, I unofficially retired from working in the Property Management field. I am very much a person that thrives on having a routine, everyday has something that needs to be done. However, this summer something has changed, not being lazy. It is okay to sit in the enclosed sunroom and watch the birds flutter around the bird feeder, to take the furr babies on a extra long golf cart ride, it is okay NOT to have a 4 or 5 course meal at night for my husband and I. What is most important, is time in the Bible, and some sort of exercise, and spending time with those we love.
I did something I haven't done in a long time...I got out a jigsaw puzzle. My husband and I worked on it for about a week, off and on., and finished it today. What a shame that we so rarely do something so rel.axing
I wish I didn’t have to follow a clock …2 1/2 more years till I retire. Maybe then I can remove the clock. But I completely understand what you’re saying I get it.
Great video Anna! Will definately try the idea of removing the clock on a day I don't babysit. Watching your video made me feel relaxed. Do you mind if I ask what kind of kitchen wash clothes you use? They seem thin which I like. I haven't been able to find something like that anywhere. Love your coffee area in your kitchen! It is really pretty, love that wallpaper!
Hi Anna! I love this idea of removing the clock! During the school year it would be impossible but when I'm on holidays I can definitely do this. I think I can definitely give it a try. Thanks so much for all the inspiration! ❤
Hi Anna I’ve been retired for almost nine years .I stopped following a clock and a schedule the day after. I do still wake very early a habit I guess after doing it for so many years If I don’t feel like doing something I say there’s always tomorrow. 💕
I’m so happy to find your channel we have a lot in common my house is blue and white and have hydrangeas are my favorite I’m a widow now lost my heavenly husband to Covid will be 3 years this December I miss him so much
This is a completely normal struggle for women. Usually takes place when there has been a dramatic shift in life. Taking the clock away from your day and creating a purposeful day for yourself indulging in whatever you please will help dramatically. It may even open a new door for you!! ♥️🤍💙
I'm going to try forgetting about the clock; great idea! I'm retired from my job as a secretary at the City planning, building and Public Works depts. I'm a terrible clock watcher; but now I really don't need to; just like you said; we need to slow down and appreciate life and God's creation. I love to watch the birds; Clock watching is a hard habit to break but I'm going to try very hard to do it starting today. God bless 💛
Well I was watching this on a day that I was hopping around like a flea! My Mama is really sick and I’m feeling shattered right now… this helped me slow down a bit… ❤
I'm so sorry to hear that your mom is sick. I clean when I'm nervous, too. And it's a frenzy clean..fast and furious. I'm glad you slowed down a bit. O pray your momma gets better quickly. ♥️
I don’t live by the clock either. The few times that I do, I feel stressed. Great advice Anna! Love your tan by the way. Now that I’ve moved and don’t have my pool anymore, I’m not as tan. I’ll have to get out to the lake and get some rays and do some swimming. Blessings Anna. Oh, my hubby was a huge jazz fan. Miles Davis was one of his favorites.
@@homeandgardenwithanna I had to watch the Clock before because otherwise my meatloaf would have burned. Lol. I wanted to wish you and your hubby and the rest of your family. A very happy fourth Fourth of July. God bless. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I love this video. I needed to hear that it's okay to slow down and forget about the clock ⏰️. I feel guilty if I'm not doing something around my home. I need to enjoy my days. I will try not to live in such a rigged schedule of my everyday life. Thank you so much for talking to us about this topic 🥰 . Happy Independence Day to you & Ernie ❤🎉🎇!! God bless America 🇺🇸 ❤ 🇺🇸🎉 🎇 🙏!!!
Something that I have been doing,staying in bed until 8:30, prayers,answering texts and email,then breakfast and whatever comes.I have back injuries so I have to limit my chores, the Lord has a way to slow us down,he did me and of course age does a good job of doing just that. Have a blessed 4th of July.
Anna, love this topic. Me and my husband both are retired, living the laid back lifestyle. My husband seems to have took it to heart. Lol We bought our retirement in 2018..1 payment and done. I on the other hand is having fun decorating it. Doing projects from thrift store to make it my style. He on the other hand, rolls his eyes at me so much. But you know he always likes the results. Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed the video and motivated me to keep moving.
Anna, I thoroughly enjoy watching you clean your home, it is just calming and relaxing..I'm done for the day, 2:40pm and it is 110° already in the Phoenix area...next 10 day's will be 112°+, we are done with the summer, bring on the Fall with the cooler mornings and day's, were we enjoy gardening..I do have a question tho..what type of cordless vacuum do you use? We have hard wood, floorcloths and area rugs and your vacuum looks perfect for all types of floors. Thanks for the info, Anna..stay safe from Arizona 🌵
Thank you Anna for the info, your little Shark looks like the perfect size, to get in and out of tight spaces..It is bloody hot here..June was the hottest on record and I think July will break the record for the hottest day's over 110° and 115° ..plus no measurable rain since March..very dry and windy..perfect wildfire weather..🌞
Unfortunately, wildfires in North Scottsdale, Wickenburg (destroyed home's)..these are the closest to Phoenix, the rest are throughout the state..basically manmade..as basically no rain, except along the New Mexico boarder..I keep telling my husband, Alaska looks good for a summer home..cool day's and no humidity..perfect..😁
Retirement....ahhhh....looking forward to that day but for now, Full time work, retiring is still about 10 yrs away, UNLESS we win the Lotto! Then its on like Donkey Kong :) I am loving our long summer days here in Cali ❤
Love exactly whaylt you said..No clock!!! My husband and I are retired!! I was a teacher for over 27 years..Always on the go with my students or my family!! Yes!!! I promise I will try this..Im excited!! My husband and I will do this together..Living life to the fullest!!!😊
Anna this is the best You Tube video I've ever watched. At 58, I have always lived by lists and the clock. Watching this video made me realize how uptight I am, because I'm always 'doing'. I promise my husband and I are going to have a 'Remove the Clock' Saturday, and actually enjoy each other, and the blessings that the day provides, but we often miss. Thank you. We are lovers of Jazz music also. Your music gives Vince Guiraldi vibes❤
Lynette, thank you so much for this! I am so happy to hear you are going to do this! M favorite Saturday's and Sunday's are waking up and laying in bed chatting until we feel like getting out of bed. Who cares if breakfast is at noon! Enjoy each other!
Hello Anna I'm a fairly new subscriber and I just want to say that I absolutely love your content. And this 40's jazz was right on time, simply wonderful ❤
Such an important message. I just retired (I’m 60) and I’m trying to de-stress from a 25 year career in Healthcare. It’s wonderful not having to work but I’m trying to be more mindful with self care and finding my new routine. Thank you for sharing! I loved this video.
Thanks for this beautiful video Anna! We love the slower pace here in Texas. Growing up on the East coast it was go go go! Life goes way too fast & before you know it, it’s just you and your husband again. Look… it’s already the 4th of July! 🇺🇸
Hi Anna I love all your videos I’ve seen all of them, but this by far is my favorite. I promise that I will try this. This really gave me something to think about. The music was amazing! Thanks for sharing your life with us!
This was absolutely The Best Video I have ever watched on You Tube! It literally brought tears to my eyes. Such a profound message and one we all need to live by. Thank you, Anna, from the bottom of my heart.
I agree with you. I hate schedules with people. Roland and I are best friends and we know what we like and do it when we want and vacations should be fun not stressful over a schedule
Being retired, my favorite days are days that I can be home the whole day and no phone calls. I completely love my family, but there is nothing like a quiet day at home

Thank you, Anna, from the bottom of my heart.
Thank you so much, Wanda! I'm so happy you recieved the messege!♥️🤍💙
I agree with you. I hate schedules with people. Roland and I are best friends and we know what we like and do it when we want and vacations should be fun not stressful over a schedule
Yes ma'am!
Being retired, my favorite days are days that I can be home the whole day and no phone calls. I completely love my family, but there is nothing like a quiet day at home
Yes!! 🩷
