    It is really nice to see a home that isn't all gray and white. It is a beautiful home that we can tell is loved. I suggest that you rent a floor sander to sand the poarch. It will save your knees and back.

    Your videos are influential and inspiring for me because even though I'm a 28 year old guy I still have things in common with you...I'm a hot mess who is challenged when it comes to keeping things clean and organized and I love antiques and odd knickknacks ❤

    My Auntie still boils her tea towels! Before washing machines, my Grandmother had a 'copper' which was a huge pot that had a fire underneath. She washed everything in that copper and she had a wringer. It was fascinating to see. My mum had an automatic washing machine. We always hang washing outside in the sun in Australia. In winter I use the dryer and hang things next to the fire. If you add vinegar then dry in the sun they become sanitised. It is interesting to watch how you do sort and clean because you do things in your unique way. I have enjoyed the DOC series. I love the random 'surprise' aspect. I started my own! Thanks Sophia, it's a GREAT idea. I would love to hear you share what you've been doing for your weight loss. You look wonderful x

    When I discovered your channel maybe six months ago, I binged all of your decluttering videos in the order you filmed them and I would get SO FRUSTRATED because it was like you were saying the right things and not really taking the actions you needed to, but WOW!!!
    You've really found what works for you from multiple systems and you're getting so great at this that it doesn't seem as exhausting and hard on you as it used to be.
    It's great to see you perked back up. You were looking a little droopy like a plant that needed watering. You're back and even better than ever. So happy for you!

    You are looking good, Sophia! You sure have lost weight and you seem so much happier. It's nice to see. For someone who claims to be such a mess you sure have your act together. You need to give yourself more credit.

  • @diannamcbride1607
    @diannamcbride1607 4 роки тому +3

    I always learn something by watching your videos. This time it was realizing how just because we wash something in the machine it doesn't mean it's clean. I'll be boiling my dish towels and such very soon. Thanks, Sophia. xx

    I love this series - you have reinforced for me that I achieve more then I break down my decluttering into smaller projects that I can manage and feels great to get on top of the piles etc. Thank you. PS: I love all your videos - so happy I found you, look forward to all your videos.

    What does that say about us that we love watching Sophia sort her rags? 🤣🤣 What can we say? We’d watch you sort and clean anything! 💕🌸 Great motivation! ... Borax & Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda work wonders for stains or just brightening whites. 😉 You’re looking great, my friend! 🌻 Love the old radio you found! 💗💕

    Watching you boil your cloths took me back to memories of me watching my momma do the same thing. It brought a smile to my face. You always are a great motivator for me because of your drive. Your fearlessness in the DIY areas are so wonderful. I so look forward to your videos.

    When my towels start thinning and fraying they go in a cupboard in my laundry room for use in the garage or cleaning up messes. Usually I take my bath towels to our local animal shelter. They are always in need of towels and blankets.

    You are so motivational.
    Today, I cleaned off my deck of the tree limbs I've been breaking down to smaller twigs and small logs so I could fit them in my car and I hauled them off to the community yard waste place. Woo hoo!
    Now, after I scrub my deck of the debris, elm & maple seeds and mildew (it's composite decking) I can get my dining table out of the shed so I have a surface to work on as I declutter the adjacent indoor dining area and thoroughly clean that room.
    It's all a progression.
    I REALLY need to cull my dish towel collection.

    I’ve watched you declutter for years. When you said 27 fling boogie I didn’t think you would be able to find enough from your kitchen, you must of really dug deep to get that many things. Your kitchen is so much more streamlined than it used to be. I remember when there was overflow on the top of your fridge and cabinets after you decluttered. You give me hope.

    Just a suggestion, I organized my kitchen washcloths and hand towels using the KonMari method, folded and stood on their ends and the drawer is pretty and very functional. I change out the washcloth and towel every morning and it's easy to pull them out and also to put the clean ones away.
