    Midwest Magic Cleaning sent me over, so I'm catching up! I'm a little jealous of your water bill, where I live the water is the most expensive component to cleaning my house, so washing dishes by hand is expensive, I would give anything for a dishwasher!!!

      Water bill is low, but our electric bills in the summer can rival people’s rent. We keep it at like 78° in the summer

    I struggle with exhaustion, am often very tired. However, I try to keep up every day, I defy my mood. I do that because I know it helps my well-being in the end, because getting too messy so that you don't know which end to start at is nothing that would have helped my well-being. Small steps like making sure the dishes are reasonably cleared away every day right after meals is something I've gotten into the habit of doing and it feels so good afterwards. Make sure there isn't an overabundance of laundry. I'm not pedantic by any means, but I try to keep up with small things. I have been really down in my mood 10-15 years ago and then I couldn't keep up and it made the mood so much worse. From being pedantic to just wanting to stay in bed all day. I don't wish that on anyone! The little you can do every day helps! ❤️

      I have lived that exact pain, I 100% get it.
      I was diagnosed with cancer last year, and before I knew what kind, that news actually help jolt me back to life.
      I, Thank God, had a easier cancer to get, Basal Cell Carcinoma (skin cancer), a lot like a barnacle, just had to have it removed.
      It was on my forehead so I now have my very own Harry Potter scar 🤣
      I’ll go with that because it also borders on a Charles Mason one as well
      😳
      🤣🤣🤣
      🤷🏻‍♀️ oh well
      Your videos are kicking my a$$ to stay on top of my housework too, loving the challenge so thank you 🤗
      Thank you for openly talking about this too, I know it’s hard for people to understand, and it’s a real gem to find someone that really does. ☺️

    You are amazing. Your house is beautiful! I understand your pain. I feel exhausted and overwhelmed. I do not have children to take care of and my husband is very self sufficient and not needy… so my hat off to you for all you have on your plate plus your health issues. I want to have energy and motivation. It’s not that I don’t want to do anything I physically can’t. Don’t feel alone.

    I’m in your boat , have been for about 6 years now… after having kids , the house exploded with CLOTHES, SHOES , TOYS and CRAFT SUPPLIES.. I finally said the hell with this crap and I started purging everything that was taking over the house. Still trying to purge stuff but it’s already helped so much with me being able to maintain laundry. My best advice is to purge everything you don’t use or need or things that y’all haven’t used in a year. It’s helped my anxiety and stress so much . Good luck hun!

    • @Chrissyhappy
      @Chrissyhappy 8 місяців тому +1

      Same here! When I had too much stuff I really struggled to do anything. It was all overwhelming. Then I’d sort it and want to do nothing for ages. As soon as I got rid of all the rubbish it was so much easier. Now I’m definitely a minimalist and it is so easy to keep the house clean and tidy. Everything has a home and nothing is left out. It’s definitely a process though. Really difficult but I’m glad I did it. Good luck to everyone on their own journey.😊

    Not fan of the music, but I love your narration You're very inspiring, especially when it comes to forgiving myself for not getting stuff done right now. I have that same problem of not being able to do only a little bit. I always feel like I have to deep clean, when I finally got to doing anything. I'll definitely watch more! (once I get over my all-music-is-disgusting period)

    Issue in our house: Every flat surface collects papers, random items. I've been trying to practice if 'take it where it belongs', which has helped decrease clutter. If I set something on the couch table, I just have to pick it up again later.

    Good morning hun! So happy to wake up to a new video! I love the idea of tackling the mess before it gets out of hand... even when you have to force yourself to get up and do it. Lol! Trust me I get like that as well! I really need to clean the main floor of my house but we are in the last week of the basement reno and it's just chaos on the main floor of the house plus all the dust that does not stop coming! Omg I HATE when I forget to press record and realize it after I've done a task and just went to change the angle of the camera ... then I'm thinking "did I record anything at all???" .. cuz I don't remember when I paused it 😂😂😂. Ugh! Absolutely annoying! I hope you have an amazing week and I hope you had a fantastic Mother's day as well! 💐🌹❤️🙏🏽

    Great job! Unfortunately, my house needs a complete overhaul, so I'm tackling it a little at a time. We have a very sick little one, so I'll be disinfecting the entire house now. It'll feel good when I'm done, but I get the lack of motivation! I have rare moments where I am extremely motivated, but otherwise, it's a struggle!

    • @feraltradwife
      @feraltradwife  8 місяців тому +3

    I love videos where you clean that huge island with all that storage and built in electrical outlets!I live in a 1950 basic 3 bedroom ranch with a small kitchen and no island, so that island is my fantasy come to life. 😂 I was wondering if you have ever tried the Clean Mama cleaning method or Fly Lady or Organized Mum? I would love to see you try out those methods and see what you think of them. Thank you for getting my day off to a great start. Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica. 🤣

    • @feraltradwife
      @feraltradwife  8 місяців тому +1

      I LOVE that island as well. It was such a huge draw when we chose this house.
      I want to try a cleaning system! I keep telling myself when my house is clean I’ll start it to maintain. But usually I’m doing a huge all day deep house clean and then refuse to do ANYTHING for the next four or so days and then my house is messy and I tell myself next time my house is clean I’ll try a system 🤣
      But I really will try it soon. With or without a fully clean house.
      SAVE BANDIT!

    Come on sis, I notice you soap up your dishes and knives and put them in the dishwasher. That’s fine for the dishes but if you don’t clean out the sink b4 you start washing the dishes, putting soapy knives in a dirty sink and then rinsing them off, defeats the purpose. Wash out the sink b4 you wash the dishes if you plan to do that not after. Not a judgement call, an observation sis. Also, can you use something to degrease the bottom of your pots and sheet pans? You have beautiful stainless steel cookware, there’s got to be something out there to bring them back to their original glory.
