    Hi Nikki, I always enjoy your videos so much and they always inspire me. In todays video you mentioned that everyone is different in their age, their seasons of life, and energy. The tears started to roll down my face. So very true about your comment. I am 65 and my husband and I are retired and I am in a wheelchair. In 2018 - 2019 I dealt with knee replacement, breast cancer, back surgery, and then a DVT. I have been in a wheelchair since 2018 and I look at my home and it is over whelming. I am depressed as to the state of my my home. Especially since I can't walk yet after my surgeries and the non organization of my home brings on anxiety and depression. Your video's help me with that and gives me inspiration to not let it all get me down, but strive for my home to become my respite place again. We all need that wonderful feeling about our homes where we feel in control and not the house in control of us. Thank you again Nikki for your sincere, and inspiring videos.

    I clean quickly our two bathrooms each morning, I make the beds, tidy and then...have a good coffee with a book. It is my reward. And then I take care of the living room and of the kitchen when preparing lunch. After lunch, I clean kitchen sink and floor and my house maintenance is done for the day 🎉

    Thank you for this video, it was so nice to see what the everyday view of your home looks like. With so much comparison and things like social media it can be so disheartening when our homes are not meeting the perfect standards set. I have adapted the lady of the house method for a while now and I can say that it really does work and makes all the difference having the “leave a space better than you found it” mentality. One thing you pointed to today that I love is the fact that your house doesn’t have to be perfect before you go to bed- it’s ok to wake up and tidy if that’s what works best for you- I know I used to get so mad at my kids for wanting a snack after I cleaned the kitchen because it “had to be cleaned before bed”. All that did was make me the mom who wouldn’t let her kids have a snack- and guess what between the hours of 8pm and 7am no one saw it because we were all sleeping 😂. Once I took on that mentality it really helped me relax a little and you know what, my house is still clean! 🤭 thank you for all your inspiration! 💕🌷

    Thanks for sharing your routines - I'm continually learning new and better ways of keeping my family's home, the skillset
    needed is so huge! My daughter left those sorts of trails of mess and clutter all through adolescence, but as an adult she and her partner keep their home clean and tidy. Your kids are soaking up what you're teaching them and the routines that give your home life structure, however many times you find dishes in the sink in the morning, after you left the kitchen clean at your bedtime.

    I know how you feel about the Thursday morning mess!! I have four children, ages 9 - 17 and they ALWAYS need more to eat when we get home from Bible study on a Wednesday night. It’s usually 8:45 - 9:00 by the time we get home, and I’m completely wiped out by that point. I tell them to stack their dishes in the sink when they finish and put away any food they get out, and I go get ready for bed. It’s easier to just deal with the leftover mess in the morning! I much prefer to wake up to a clean kitchen, so I’m glad this scenario usually only happens once per week. 😄

    It's refreshing to see a content creator show a realistic view of what homes look like with people living their day to day lives in these homes. I agree that the daily tidy up is essential. Your little puppies are just so adorable. I love it when they make an appearance! Is the little brown one a toy poodle? The colouring is stunning. I have a silver toy poodle and have always dreamed of having a brown one some day.

      I thought that would be best to share. The truth is, by the time I've gotten around to filming most days, I've already done my daily tidy. It's hard to begin working with a mess or clutter around. My mind can't function properly. Of course I don't mop a mopped floor or wash clean clothes or wipe clean counters but much of the dirt and grime is washed out by lighting and never seeing a true before with the clutter around can be deceiving. Lady is a mini poodle. She is an apricot color, at least that's what I've read about her coloring 🌹

    After cleaning up the kitchen at night, I was wondering what others do when someone (me in this case) wants a late night snack or little meal. I usually rinse the dishes off and leave them til morning. Setting a curfew like, "Kitchen is closed after 7pm" doesn't always work. I also have a workaround situation with the shower and tub. The tub downstairs has only the hot water faucet working. To take a bath, which I have tried, takes a bit of work. So I shower upstairs. My son takes care of his situation. That leaves me with 2 bathrooms to clean.

    • @TheLadyoftheHouse
      @TheLadyoftheHouse  9 місяців тому +1

      “The kitchen is closed” is a nice thought, but not practical for growing children, movie nights and a variety of other scenarios I’ve come to find out. Rinsing your dishes is perfect. There are always those ideals but rarely is it real world. Doing our best in each moment goes a long way🌹

    Hello Nikki, We have routines and responsibilities for everyone in our home; with 6 children 13-27, it’s just a very busy household with lots of different job schedules, out of town events, and meal times. I like having the kitchen tidied after each meal but know someone might come in right afterwards and make their meal. Our children make their own breakfast, lunch and snacks; each child makes a dinner once a week. Sunday meals are a team effort.
    I definitely wipe down the toilet with some tp before my shower; a wipe the counter down with the hand towel that is headed to the laundry; each child does their own laundry and one extra load: cloth napkins, kitchen cloths, bath towels, rags, shower curtains, blankets, etc. Teaching children these responsibilities is simple life skills preparation.
    Our home isn’t always tidied but it’s been picked up 2-3 times each day.

    Hi, Nikki-you’re home is beautiful just like you. I love your heart and channel so much and the ladies that follow you. You certainly are a lady with so much composure for waking up to disarray after you tidy it before going to bed.
    I struggle with paper and junk drawers and just in case items. My home is all white with some beautiful antiques and gorgeous antique French chandeliers. My decor is antique with white French Madonnas, antique candlesticks with white beeswax candles and French mirrors and bowls.Yes, most everything is French; except, me. Haha I’m Italian. I feel it is pretty, minimal, and elegant. . But back to my issue: I stuff all those things in closets, drawers, basement, and spare room. It looks like a tornado blew through. It’s incongruent with the rest of my home. I tidy daily as well. I’m glad to know that I’m not the only lady who cleans the bathroom before I use it. My husband leaves early. And I just have to clean the the bathroom; except, the tub in order to feel like a lady.

    • @TheLadyoftheHouse
      @TheLadyoftheHouse  9 місяців тому +2

      Thank you so much! I love all this lightness you describe. When those things which are unseen look as beautiful as what is seen, everything may be in harmony. It can take effort to work on those areas and have that self control, which is really what it comes down to. When you master that, you will look forward to opening those spaces and the peace you will feel....indescribable 🌹

    Thank you so much for this new video which inspire me. But I have a question. All the mess you show is made by other people. Do you say to us that they can also tidy behind them? I'm a fullworking mum and when I go back at home I don't want to see a messy home. Do you have some friction with kids and spouse for that?

    • @TheLadyoftheHouse
      @TheLadyoftheHouse  9 місяців тому +1

      It’s always unfortunate when able bodied individuals don’t pick up after themselves. The majority of people don’t do this simple task, just look at society as a whole. It’s a priority for the lady of the house to teach this skill to her household but know that it will often be met with resistance. Praise the considerate behavior when you notice it and share just how much you appreciate it because coming home to a clean and tidy home after working a full day brings you peace and happiness. Some pick up these thoughtful skills early on while others really struggle with selfishness. Constant reminders in which case will likely be the norm. Some will say, “it shouldn’t be that way!” but I’ve yet to see even those have a perfectly run home with all members of the home pulling their own weight 100% of the time because the only one we can control, is ourself🌹
