Thank you for this reminder. I’ve been taking care of a husband who had an awful accident in summer of 2022. I took a nice walk this afternoon and I’, getting ready to set my timer for 5 minutes and do nothing. I’m constantly taking care of one chore or errand and I need to just breathe. Blessings!
Hi Diane. I love your clothes. You have such great fashion. Its inspiring me to get out of my pajamas before the day is through, make my bed, clean the sink and get dressed to shoes. I am recovering from severe trauma that caused head injury, kidney injury, spinal injuries as well as external injuries to arms, legs. In addition from severe dehydration that led to kidney infection and kidney stones. I was attacked on August 21. I previously had head and spinal cord injury and have been disabled many years now. Head injury and spinal cord injury stopped my motivation and was so overwhelming I never knew where to begin. When another FLY lady, who is a friend sat me down to watch the first 21 days of your program three days ago, my world felt an instant cure in the brain. What seemed like a mounstain to climb as high as the heavens suddenly changed into something I thought I could actually accomplish. I had instant healing neurologically. It changed my whole life into HOPE. After watching the first 21 videos three days ago, I bought good sneakers because I have trouble walking. and, have always realized over the years the brain connection of shoes with ties and its impact to get something done. But, I am in a foreign country right now so I dont have much at all and am unable to return to my country due to the injuries. The woman happened to be selling beautiful dresses that her daughter no longer wanted. So, I bought a few so I could look beautiful instead of wearing pajamas. She gave me a journal and sticky notes, too. I left her home with the sneakers, the journal, the dresses and the sticky notes 3 days ago. I implemented making the bed, dressing to shoes, and shining the sink. But, I was too tired to do the dishes so I set them aside out of the sink to soak overnight. The next day, I did dishes, clean sink, and decided to get dressed in the beautiful new dress with the sneakers to celebrate my new journey as a beginner FLY baby. I am so very inspired and have been writing ways to adapt this specifically for head injury people or people with disabilities who have additional issues to manage every day. I found that your program really is a fantastic approach for head injury and people in trauma or disability who feel so much chaos its hard to know where to start or end. Nutrition, hydration and physical therapies, prayer time along with medication administration are all part of my morning routine and I am trying to find how to put it all in order. So, I am getting up, making bed, taking medications, having coffee, cleaning sink and then going to garden for physical therapy and prayer. After that I have to rest. I am tired. Then, I am dressing to shoes. Next, preparing my morning fruit smoothie and hydrating. It takes me a long time to do all this because I am in much pain and fatigue at this time. But, I told myself I will just do what I can and love myself enough to rest when I have to. But, my brain feels like it came out of chaos by watching your videos. Out of a fog and to a place I wanted to reach but just did not know how to. So, you have really served to aid me in a neurological healing. I have not had anyone in the 21 years I have suffered from head and spinal cord injury help me to find a way out of brain fog and back to order. I feel I came out of some coma...I mean a real healing. I am not exaggerating. I wish I knew this method many years ago. Thank you for all you share. You are an amazing person. and, your approach is so unique that it makes me feel I can do this and I am. I am a Catholic and believe in miracles. I want you to know you have served to do this for me by the grace of God. I wish I could send you some photos of me celebrating this in my new dress. Is there a way? God bless you. Peace and much love. I love you from deepest part for changing my world in one afternoon in the first 21 videos I watched.
Started the baby steps and am now on day 5, it's amazing, easy simple steps, and the energy that comes with it is awesome, I almost skipped some steps but I am determined to go day after day, to build on consistency without feeling overwhelmed, thanks Diane
Dearest Diane, I am a newbie and I am a 63 yr old widow. Today 5/5/17 is my Day 5. I've had a couple of very rough nights sleep-wise. So starting the morning well-rested and raring to meet the day is rough. I also work full-time. I'm shining my sink, swishing and swiping my own bathroom only, and laying out my next day's clothes. The sweet birds chirping in the background are not a distraction and you always look so pulled together and chic and fashionable. Always. You have a calming voice. So thank you for your time. It's appreciated.
Alice, hugs to you, I am also a newbie to this channel too and also a widow. Take care!
PJ D good luck to you!!!
So I found you this evening while I was relaxing after a hectic day at work (as a wedding coordinator) and binge watched the morning & evening routines and then onto the 31 steps and after step two I thought about the shiny sink and got up off my sofa and went and washed up the dinner dishes etc (in fact the whole days dishes!) Whilst watching the other steps up to here and now I'm sat down with a cup of tea and feeling very smug about my clean kitchen and not having to face the dishes tomorrow morning! :)
Enjoy your cup of tea! 🤗
You are so on point with everything it’s like you are in my mind lol. I used to get makeup and clothes on every single day and in the last 5 years have really let myself and my house go and I realize it can be quite depressing. Before my illness I was a very organized person. It’s hard when you have a chronic illness ( I have Rheumatoid Arthritis) to be able to get out of bed in the morning. I honestly feel if I start to get my appearance up to par daily it will really help
It helps if I set the timer, and then say to myself, “For ten minutes, I’m not allowed to worry.”
You are a breath of fresh air .my issue isn't sitting down it is getting up and doing things but I am determined to change this . As you say we don't have to love it or want to do it we just need to do it .we'll I am up and dressed to shoes . Shined my sink last night . Thank you 😊
👏👏👏😃
Hi Diane. I spent 20 mins in my garden this evening and it felt really good. I have been shining my sink and dressing to shoes. Love this series - something manageable, thanks Diane .
Mandy UK
I think you look beautiful! You always do! Thank you for doing these! They are so encouraging(:
Hi Diane this is wonderful!Getting organized.I get up early .. around 6am....shower then dress to shoes. Can you respond ....Thanks
These short step by step videos are great! I'm in Australia and I suffer from low Vitamin D. I find when I take 10 mins of sitting in the sun (with a timer and with as little as possible on, even here, in winter, that means it's only rolling up my sleeves) my whole outlook on life improves and I start feeling great! Thanks for all the little reminders, can't wait to watch the rest :-)
Hi K Bal - yes, all those minutes add up and start to snowball. Sending you some (alas, pretty feeble!) Danish sunshine!
Returning some Aussie Sunshine, many thanks :-)
Diane, I have just begun following FlyLady and love your videos! I am from Georgia in the USA, and this is the year I am going to reclaim my life! Thank you for your videos and encouragement! After nearly 22 years I no longer have children at home and want to have an orderly house and life. I should have started long before now!
Brilliant video. I’m a new subscriber. Enjoying your motivational but realistic ideas. I like hearing the details and ideas.
Thank you for being so warm and inspiring! Going through your first five videos has already changed my life. I have been embarassed of being terrified of my sink for a long time. It was always dirty. Now my sink is clean each day, I keep it clear of dishes, and I feel proud and empowered. So many other things in my life are flowing more easily. I have a young son and never learned to keep house. Thank you! PS I love the love birds.
Yay, go you, Charlotte!
I like you what you’re wearing. That’s exactly what I need to sit and forget about everything including UA-cam. Thank you
lol so funny...the person in the red shirt never gets to come back...lol hubby is a star trek fan. I really appreciate your videos!
These videos are amazing! I tried the FlyLady system a few years ago. However, I did not start with the babysteps like I was supposed to. I tried to jump right into the full routine. I crashed and burned (of course lol) because I didn't take the time to slowly build routines. I'm back again, trying it the right way! So far so good!
Great to hear, Sara - good luck!
Sara D
Same here!
So I am starting the baby steps too.
Learning to walk before I can run.
😅
I can imagine why this is so difficult. Most other tasks can be picked up again when we get interrupted, this one is so hard to get back to and ringing phones, doorbells, and children's needs are sure to interrupt. However, since I can see how necessary it is I will put it into my daily routine starting today. However, I think I will add a caveat- Because I live in a country of paradise I am going to force myself to sit on my lovely porch and enjoy the birds and flowers outside! Thank you so much for your videos. I did fly lady about 15 years ago and boy do I have some stories to tell. However 15 years later and living in a foreign country and I have found creeping chaos and my house has become neglected. So, I am returning to the basics which helped me so many years ago.
Glad that you are back with us!
Genial.. le da al timer para todo. Está muy buena la idea!
Thanks...it is needed so much.. time to breathe! Otherwise we never come to know we are actually breathing!
Vielen Dank für das Video.
This really spoke to me today, I struggle with negative self talk in my head. I will have to continue to work on this.. Thanks, I like the way you encourage. I love your Star Trek outfit, btw!
Thanks, Sharon! Live long and prosper!
@@DianeinDenmark Diane Are you the expendable crew woman? Say it isn't so.Im a fellow crewoman from West Virginia USA.I LOVE your channel.You've made this process so much more accessible to me.
Thanks
Got dressed to shoes .I have got in a habit of taking a coffee back to bed and then I get up and get dressed .maybe days I am writing I should not do this.
Thank you Diane, I am doing the program. Already I see some amelioration in my home!
Today is my day five. I have found your videos so very helpful in understanding the system.
I live in Japan with my husband's family. Just yesterday, my husband told me how impressed his father was that the sink is so shiny in the morning. This really pays off.
I am figuring out the shoes part of dress to shoes, because Japan has its own culture. I asked my husband what he imagines a high-class house wife in Japan wearing on her feet, and now I am going to get me the kind of footwear I need. Dressing up has helped a lot, but my normal bare feet makes me feel half-dressed. I used to play all the time outside in bare feet, so it just doesn't have the impact on me mentally. Socks don't work, either, so it is a pair of comfortable slip-on house shoes that won't leave mark on the floors and still adhere to the Japanese culture that I will purchase.
On the plus side, I have gained the habit of sitting by myself for 15 minutes and relaxing since last year, so that part is down :)
I have been looking ahead to prepare myself mentally (and sometimes get a room or a thing ready that hasn't seen love in a while). Can't wait for day 6. Unofficially started on it, but am waiting for the day to add it to my list.
Thank you again for these videos. They are so helpful.
Looking forward to hearing how it goes with the indoor shoes, Michelle! 👏😃 And I'm dreaming back to Japan (have visited several times and a highlight was Kinosaki Onsen town last summer - I have a UA-cam video of it 😊).
@@DianeinDenmark I will hunt around for it ^_^ I don't think I have been to Kinosaki yet--I live more near the Gero hot springs :)
@@michellearakawa1282 Forgot to add the link for you, sorry! 😁 ua-cam.com/video/6v-bCXabFIc/v-deo.html
@@DianeinDenmark Thanks!
"You can bet your biffies..."? That's hilarious! I've not heard that before, but you can bet your biffies I'll use it now😂!
Let me know what kind of reaction you get! LOL
Bet your Bippy is an old American expression from Laugh In.
I'm old, remember it fondly.
Oh my goodness! I loved the birds!!
Love that you’re a Trekkie!
I am glad you said you could call pampering "self care" instead because I had never really thought about it like that and I didn't really buy in to the concept of pampering myself, it felt silly. Now I will think of it as "self care" instead and that makes a lot more sense to me!
I've always taken most of my time for myself--thus the messy house. Raised two lovely sons, and the house always came last. Now I am housebound due to illness, not old age, and I need a clean home to keep me sane and happy. Even still, most of my time has always been for myself, but I need to have a clean home since I never get leave it! And I can't do a lot at once, so "for fifteen minutes you can do anything," even me. I love LOVE your videos more than anyone's! You are such a good communicator, believable, and down to earth. Would be fun to know you. I love your clothes too--they are just my style!! Keep these videos coming please, because you have a way of making it possible for me. Your cheery ways are such an encouragement.
the birds are cute! they're not overpowering and it's s happy noise 😉
+Flylady Diane Denmark: 100 points to your house for the Star Trek reference! ^_^
Willow Murdock love her Star Trek references!!!
This is what drew me to flylady in the first place. Knowing that there are other women struggling like I am who think awful sad things about ourselves but don't want to anymore. It's not just about a clean home. Anyway, I love your Star Trek comment. 😆 My husband and I love that show.
LLAP, Christina! 🤗🖖
Hi Diane, I watch you from Sydney, Australia and I am absolutely loving your videos. I started flylady a few years ago, but then I stopped and feel like I'm in chaos again. Your baby steps videos are so warm and encouraging which is just what I need. I'm glad you mentioned the 'love birds' in the background as I was wearing headphones and I thought they were outside in my back yard. I even asked my 8 year old son what that bird noise was and he looked at me strangely and said "what birds?" hahaha!
LOL!
Oh I'm going to love the task for today. 5 minutes to myself...cant remember the last time I did that!
Yay, Twinkle Mummy! Yes, we all need to sit down and take at least 5 minutes for ourselves. Hope you feel recharged afterwards!
I really like these videos. Keep them coming and the "squeaks" made me smile.
Hi Diane, I would just like to say what a lovely smile you have and how smart you always look. My absolute favourite so far (I'm new) is dress to shoes. So glad I found your channel
Thank you, Linda - dressing to shoes really helps us to get things done!
You have the best ...bar none ..channel on the Internet 🥰🥰
Diane thank you so much your so inspiring, I have young kiddies which are taught to take shoes off at the door and that slippers are allowed, when I mentioned fly lady to my husband and the shoes thing and hour later he had ordered me some hard bottomed (with proper soles) completly enclosed like shoes slippers is this ok? They still have the feel and look of shoes yet it's not confusing to the children? X x
+Jemma Spanswick What a lovely hubby and, yes, those indoor shoes sound great!
Jemma Spanswic
I’m starting my journey to a better me using you as my guide! Wish me luck!
I liked the birds in the background, not a problem, if you went outside you would hear birds too! Thank for sharing your video's.
You are very welcome, PJ D!
Should we be looking at the zone videos, or just get through the 31 says first?
I would concentrate on the 31 Babysteps - they will get you off to a FLYing start. You are free to delve in to my other videos for inspiration/background, but promise me that you will set your timer for 15 minutes and go and do something else afterwards! LOL
You are bright & beautiful! Thank you for being you. I find your videos so encouraging ❤
Love you and your outfits!
Aww, thanks so much, Suzy!
I love the sound of the birds. No apologies necessary.
Diane, You are so lovely! This is the toughest step so far, taking time for myself doing nothing. May God Bless you!
I love that you made a Star Trek référence in your video. And thank you for going through these steps in video format. For some reason that seems to work better for me.
day 4 done...reporting for day 5. I will make a list of things I can do for myself and take on this 5 minute relaxation challenge.
Thank you
I been looking for a change and how I was cleaning
Love your videos. "Looking like a monster" LOL 🤣
I had breakfast, washed my hair and dressed to shoes.
Three times to breath: one at lunch time, one at my job after work and one after my homework at 23.30 h.
I have to go to bed at a decent hour but that is a very big problem since 8 y.
I prepared my outfit for tomorrow and I shined my sink.
I was in the coffee shop of the bakeries and had a cup of peppermint tea and a little bread with fish and tomatoe and gurkin. At home I had a nice cup of hot chocolate and I will take my special perfume in the car (as it is no longer hot in the car) and at home it is too intensive for my DH. So I take it at my job.
I love your sci-fi references! Just found your channel- loving it!
Welcome here, Isabelle!
I love that she shows her shoes!
this is so so important ... No1 can give you the love and the apriciation (sorry 4 wrong spelling) that your heart yearns ...except so pls take care of yourself get dressed to shoes and take some time for yourself if nth else jus a glass of plain warm water
Love your voice. Are you Irish? I am part Irish but haven't been there yet! Please help. I only lasted 4 minutes relaxing. Please give more ideas Diane and others. Should I shut my eyes and listen to music?
She is Scottish
Question: Does the 5-15 min "down" time need to be doing ABSOLUTELY nothing? I love knitting and I find it relaxing and nurturing but is that for another time.... not to be done in this slot you talk about in the video?
Love love the birds... very restful, peaceful and joyful!
Thanks for these amazing tiny bites to get my life out of chaos.
From sunny Sydney, Australia
Do whatever you like to relax. The message to do nothing was for people who are constantly thinking that they should be "working" on cleaning etc and running themselves ragged.
Hi Diane,
I just have one problem. I get sidetracked very easily. When I take a break, and believe me I do.....it ends up that way for hours and before I know it, the housework isn't done, cooking isn't done .......
I get sucked into the internet and I just dismiss my timer
Would be great if you could guide me. I started watching your videos last week. I binge watched all 31 videos in one day and then realized how overwhelmed I was. So, I started over from day 1....And hanging in there
To avoid dismissing my timer while I am on the internet, I don't use the timer on my phone or laptop. I set the timer on my stove. That forces me to get up to turn it off. Usually that is enough to bring me out of the hypnotic state and do something else.
I also will drink a lot of water, which will also force me to get up.
What I do with Diane's videos is watch only one video at a time, then go do that task.
e.g. Watch "Day 1", then shine my sinks. Then watch Day 3 and work on building my control journal for 15 minutes. etc.
@@Nyx773 thanks so much. The timer idea is great.....let me try it.....
And yes....now I am following Diane's video one day at a time......😃😃😃
Day 6 today!!!!
Yes, I use a physical timer so I am forced to stand up and turn it off 😃
Thank you so much Diane for your channel. You and FlyLady are such helpful inspiration! A FlyBaby again...progress not perfection. :) Edited for typo.
You are so welcome, Amelia!
Dear Diane,
greetings from Germany. I found your channel some days before. I love your motivating manner.
I also bought the book and started reading. It fit good together.
I thought I need 5 minutes for me at home and I especially need 5 minutes for me (for example looking through the window) at work. I often don't give me the allowance to have a break for a minute. I need it so much.
Welcome here, Ulrike!
I love the star Trek joke, I laughed so hard at your red shirt joke, that was unexpected and awesome. Does the take time for your self have to involve doing nothing? Does working out or yoga not count?
Of course, Rhiannon! Anything which is "you" time and not "cleaning, stressing out" time 😍
We're still going Diane...this is the one habit I am absolutely rubbish at! I just forget to be purposeful! I probably do sit with a cuppa and it would be rare for me to not read before bed...but I'm not thinking about it, it's autopilot, which means it doesn't feel like a treat, so I'm going to try and be more mindful...oh, there's that try word! As Yoda says...do or do not, there is no try!! I shall do better!! Thanks Diane xx
You have birds, like me! You're dressed so pretty! Thank you!
I quit here (done my time to breathe with my DH in a restaurant in the town)
and I will follow the 7 days challenge now.
Bye for now.
I had quitted here 4 weeks ago and done the 7 days-challenge 8 or 9 days and I wanted to stay there for some more weeks but unfortunately I got a severe flue and quit all my 31 baby steps and quit the 7-days-challenge. Now I feel like starting again with the 31 baby steps here, where I quit before. Hello Diane and hello all the baby steps-people again
31 babysteps day 4
Oh I just recognized the new Bahookie camp and I prefer following this as to have a fresh virtual start
every day with a brand new flylady video, dear Diane
The Bahookie camp is too difficult for me, I will continue with the 31 babysteps. Hello again
Hello Diane! Day 5 can I sit and knit?
Of course you can, Diana - that is a great way to relax and destress! :-)
I have made it to day 5!!
Woo hoo, go Jennifer!
Hello all. I am new and I missed the point somewhere. The sitting down and resting for 5 to 15 minutes takes place win. Is that a morning routine before I go to work is that an evening routine before I go to bed I’m not sure
There is no specific or set time to do it, Kathy - just make sure you are taking a break "just for you" everyday. It's so easy to feel that we have to keep going all the time and we only end up getting tired and angry. When we take time for ourselves we are recharging our batteries.
Diane in Denmark Thank you for responding. I just want to be sure that I get it right because so far it is working.
“...looking like a monster.” 😂😂😂😂
Hi Diane! On day 5 and can see a difference in my kitchen and my attitude already! Can't believe it actually. May I ask what time you get to bed and wake up if that is not too personal. I am a nighthawk and find I don't normally go to bed early, but as all these other steps are making a difference, I am wondering if getting started earlier in the day and therefore having to get to bed earlier will help with my overall schedule. What do you think?
Hi Christina! Yes, I often talk about my Routines/timing. Here are the videos 👋 ua-cam.com/play/PLxIYCyTLBED8WSsh-WS_o8qTf15-4ja0Z.html
@@DianeinDenmark Thanks Diane..will have a look. 😀
I took a nap; does that count? The neighbour's dog keeps waking us up (too) early in the weekend mornings so my DH and I take a short nap in the afternoon.
Newbie here who loves the sound of birds. They only enhanced this video. I'm off for 15 minutes to myself. I can do THAT with no problem!
I have done nothing (nearly nothing) for 5 mins. After 2 mins I only unplugged the telephone to not be disturbed. That was all.
And in addition this late morning I got my pampering basket after having done my morning routine and I took some little mini bottles and samples and perfume and I did some blowing of soap bubbles for fun. Greetings. Idi
Good for you! I've been blowing bubbles for the last 45 years for health (asthma, pneumonia, etc.) and I still think it's fun! Nicole
walking the dogs :)
Hi Diane I am enjoying this process with you. I subscribed to The Flylady and I would have been happy with receiving one email a day but five emails a day!!!!!!!!!!!! I am not going to read all of these emails. Is it necessary to subscribe or should I just enjoy this journey with your videos?
Just follow the babysteps and you'll be fine 😁
I took time out today to learn some French! I haven't done it in 39 years, so it's a lot of fun and will probably become quite challenging as soon as we pass the easy stuff. But I decided not to feel guilty about it. I've done a lot of other good things about the house and my Babysteps too, so why not?! :-)
Anyone who can’t handle seeming me in sweats should not come over.
Because of a chronic illness I’m a lot at home. I have less energy than an average person and I have more time for myself. This is difficult to handle too. I never know ‘how many spoons’ I have in a day and it’s not easy to make a structure. Being tired and being bored can sometimes feel the same. And the structure of doing tiny things in 15 minutes will help me to do some things even on my very bad days. So, in the better days I can enjoy them more because there is not so much work I have to do than.
Welcome here, Yelena!
@@DianeinDenmark thank you!
I have sit down for 5 minutes, before I worked in the kitchen: my sink ist clean and empty and I have dressed to shoes rather soon this morning, I fixed some sticky notes "early to bed", "sink clean and empty", "get dressed" and I limited my screen time this evening!!! As a reward for all this, I will watch the video of day 17: go to bed at a decent hour
I dressed to shoes, my sink is clean and I relaxed for 5 minutes
I did nothing for five minutes, except a little bit of praying
I relaxed for 5 minutes, did a PC virus cleaning and drank my water, habit of this month :-)
Should I also make a nice post it for daily pampering/me-time?
+Hepziba de Vries Yes, great idea!
It's been day 5 and you didn't start cleaning yet. I got lots of clutter.
As the mother of 5 small children (soon to be 6) I have found it virtually impossible to take time for myself every day. I have been trying for a few weeks now, but have only been successful a few times per week.
Can I hear pet birds in the background? If so how do you deal with the poo? My much beloved parrot’s poo is the Bain of my life and one of the biggest cleaning problems I face - necks freerange in the house so it’s never-ending!
I have eaten an ice cream in the evening after an exhausting day
this was a pampering, yes. But today I read the 11 commandments of flylady, looked for my former pampering basket, put it right beside my pillow in the bed and did a pamper session. Oh, how I feel refreshed now
Where is day 6?
Hi Jann! Are you using the playlist? Here it is for you 😀 ua-cam.com/video/11_wvZoQPTc/v-deo.html
🖖 Don't beam down, then. We'd miss you.
I don't understand why not to wear flip flops. I live in Florida. That is about all we wear. Flip flops or sandals. When I go outside, I wear crocks because we have chickens that free range and poo everywhere. In the winter, I wear sneakers in the evening to go outside. It's just too hot to wear them during the daytime in the summer.
I would make sure that the soles of the sandals have good structure, including arch support and cushion.
Almost all flip flops are bad for the feet (and knees and back), ask any podiatrist.
Good support leads to less fatigue and more accomplished.
Those birds tho !🤩very distracting for this topic.
This video did not say when you take 5-15?minutes for yourself whether or not that means you get on your phone and start looking on Facebook. Not that I do but I’m trying to help a loved one and I know for certain that’s what she will do.
15 minutes of time for you, whatever you feel relaxing (read a magazine, put your feet up, snuggle with the cat, do a crossword). I always suggest setting a timer before you go on the internet/Facebook/Pinterest because we think we will just take a quick look and then three hours later we are still sitting there! LOL!
Love your vids but the birds are little distracting in this one
Yes, I'm still looking for the 'off' button on Tweet and Sparky! LOL
The birds are lovely!
Can we mute the birds ? So pulls my attention away from you..😔
So, like, where are the people you live with when you are doing all this stuff? Cause I can guarantee in 15 minutes I will be interrupted 15 times. I literally yelled at my spouse tonight , "Can I just clean the f'ing kitchen???" Only I didn't say f'ing. I can't put up a post it. It will disappear like magic. Good ideas but....
@@Nyx773 Thank you for answering my question and being so supportive. Righteously indignant much? Sounds like you need to take your 15 minutes today.
goodbye
Love you...but those birds. (Sorry. Guess I'm in the minority.)
+queenannes lace Dont worry, the birds 🐦 drive me nuts too! Where is the off switch? 😉
Anyone who can’t handle seeming me in sweats should not come over.
