I was drinking water and nearly spit it out when you said, “when someone shows how they hold a phone like this and not like this, that’s when I knew I had to start using retinol.”
She's hilarious 😂
As a girly that lives alone, can i just say that these vlogs bring me so much joy. It's like i'm actually experiencing human interaction
Omg 🥹🫶🏻
for real, i also kinda live alne, my bf works 8 hours in an office, and im all by myself with my 2 chihuahuas, 2 turtles and 1 axolotl, but still feel like a lonenliness?
I’m a stay at home mom to my 2 year old son and I love your videos. It can be lonely being home everyday. But you make that so much easier. Thank you for your content ❤️
v happy to spend the day with you guys!! 🫶🏻
I’m so glad today was vlog day. I had a terrible panic attack today in public that lasted hours and when I got home I was able to take Mr meds and put this on and fall asleep and reset after really hard day and I needed that
I'm so sorry to hear about that!! I hope you're doing better today and are able to take some time for yourself this weekend 🌷💛
Omg take your meds with you everywhere and take care ❤
If I hear ABBA out in the wild, my mood boosts at least 150%. (I have a whole playlist of them for when I’m doing my adult job & I know I’ll be stress-free) 😂❤
Right!!!
I really appreciate your openness and honesty about grief. Having lost people close to me in my life, I also have always had the feeling that grief never goes away and disagree with people who say it does. I have to have a really close relationship with someone to discuss grief besides saying "I'm sorry" because I just never know what to say and everyone deals with grief differently, so I'd never want to offend anyone. I just love this community so much because I feel like I can talk about anything with you guys.
I'm so glad, this comment made me so happy this morning. 💛 Grief is weird and it's nice to have people who get it!
@@oliviareadsalatte Aww yay! For sure 💖
“What about people that… their bones always hurt. Can they? 🤨” LMAO ME TOO GIRL
🤣🤣
Lately I've felt like I've been moving on autopilot and I've been trying to slow down more and take the time to enjoy things - so what you said in this vlog about the things you noticed you don't do bc they take too much time resonated with me so much! I have felt such a difference since I started to really shift my mindset and start enjoying little things and taking my time. I have felt so much more present! Thank you for sharing this! Another lovely cozy vlog ❤️
thank you so much 🌷💛 I so agree, it does feel like I'm on autopilot. I know that a lot of people say it's silly to "romanticize" everything, but it really helps to slow down and enjoy every little aspect of life.
the red cardinals are actually a sign that your passed loved ones are nearby/visiting you! I always get so excited when I see one ❤
I love that 🤎
crows are 100% my animal that i see constantly whenever i'm having a hard time. such a comfort!!
I love watching tik toks about people going around to LFL and dropping/picking up books! I think that would be a cute shortish video!
I’m mapping it out 🚗
Thank you for blessing my wfh day with a 2.5 hr vlog ❤
I hope you have a good day!! 🫶🏻
@@oliviareadsalatte thank you, you too! 😊
I’ve deleted all social media except youtube and I do feel a huge difference!
By the way I love when you use your old camera, the quality is so nice ❤
Hope you have an extra lovely day Olivia 🐈✨
Thank you! I hope you’re having a great day 💛
Literally look forward to your vids each week ❤ love love love the 2+ hr vlogs. Absolutely needed.
Yay! Thank you! 🌷💛
The book you were thinking of is a marvelous light! Love that trilogy so much
I just finished the third book and loved it so much!😊
It's so good!
Love that you wrote a "ta-da" list instead of a to-do list. Usually I write down my to-do list after I've done all the things just so I can cross them off! 🤣
57:02 i got a Vera Bradley duffel for graduation in 2011 and that thing has SEEN THE WORLD. I’ll use it til the straps fall off!!
Ok I feel the "talking your hands when you get your nails done" and I feel called out 😂
But I think no matter what camera use, you still hit the facetime with a friend vibes 🥰
awww thank you, I'm happy to hear that!!
Hi Olivia. I wanted to let you know. I love your videos. I hace been bindge watching them. I take care of my mom full time. She lost both of her legs 2 or 3 years ago. So I am at home alot. 😂 but , watching your videos. I helps my depression and not feeling so alone.
Oh, I’m so sorry to hear that! I’m glad that my videos can help in any way possible 💛
I haven't watched yt in SO LONG and when this video popped up in my Watch Later I was beyond satisfied
Kitty humidifier and heating pad, pets snoring, fresh long nails, coffee, coffee, coffee, 2 1/2 hr vlog, books, sweet pup and tortoise, “off grid vibes”, Awesome!!! Must say…. making coffee the slow way…. I wash my dishes by hand… sounds crazy but so relaxing … bubbles, hot water, slow movements while drying. Give yourself the grace you would give others…. Especially when grieving in your time
thank you 🌷💛
I know it's gonna be a good day when I see big fluffy white clouds
☁️💛
Grief can be so isolating, even when you're surrounded by supportive, loving people. And for social media, it absolutely makes a difference - summer of 2020 I deleted Facebook from my phone because the controversies about returning to in person schooling were giving me major stress. And ever since I haven't really cared about FB at all 😊 Team Slow Mornings!!!!
yeeees, team slow morning! 🌷💛
liv i dont think you understand i could watch you recount a movie ive never seen scene by scene all DAY 💕 🤣
Hahahahha maybe it’ll start adding that to the vlogs 🤣
Thanks for sharing your review of the new Strangers! The first one scared the heck out of me. I remember seeing it by myself in the afternoon in theaters, and it did not matter at all that it was daylight outside when it ended. I was terrified, lol. I thought the new one looked good in the trailer, but you saved me the time! I am typically not afraid of the more supernatural horror because it couldn't happen to me. The first movie, when Liv Tyler asked why they were doing this to them and the woman said, "Because you were home"? ACTUAL CHILLS.
that because you were home line was so scary!!
You know what I find odd…I know every word to the “we can spend all day in bed” song but absolutely no idea what it’s called or who it’s by or anything…just from watching these vlogs. It’s a bop 😂❤
I just know the song from editing 😂
Thank you so much for talking about how summer is hard for you! I also do not thrive during this season and every time I say I’m excited for summer to be over people look at me like I’m crazy 🫠
Summer time is literally a FLOP
I am going to be honest and say that I have not seen every single one of your vlogs, but since you like movies: if you can still catch The Fall Guy (and haven't seen it already) I truly recommend that one. It is like the perfect bland of humor, action and romance. I am low key obsessed with it and while I am normally not a cinema person anymore I went and saw that one twice on the big screen. It's really fun.
I did got see that and you're very right, it was a super fun movie!
Hospitals being dark and empty always pull me out of movies 😂😂 like clearly the producers have never actually spent a night in a hospital lol
truly!
I love bones.
Also I agree grif doesn't go away it just changes...
It’s such a good show 🦴
I totally can relate on the grief train being hard and all of the overwhelming feelings. Just lost my mom memorial day weekend. I too am an early packer for trips
I'm so sorry for your loss 💛
I have done S.M. detox's whenever I need them. Although, certain ones I came off and have yet to go back on (FB I'm not looking at you. Tik Tok you too). YT, Insta, Discord, and Patreon are the only ones I still like. YT is the only one I never detox from... but I will have times I don't hang out in sprints or post videos because sometimes I just don't want to be perceived. Oh and now here I go on a rant 😂
Things are right with world when you get an ad for AMC while watching an @oliviareadsalatte vlog!
Omg yes!!!
If you Walden it up don’t forget your camera and books so us gorls can live our hermit lives with you 😂
Oh the camera and kindle will for sure come with
love how the vlogs keep getting longer!! will play in the background while working and then will rewatch and enjoy later ☺ 💖
hehe thank you! 🌷💛
Totally know the feeling of starting a book and knowing I’m gonna enjoy it. Like, wait, not me wanting to dog ear this page. Not me wishing I had a pen to highlight this sentence. Not me pretending I’M the main character in this plot. Those are the signs …
yes!!!
Amen to the no phone giving you more time! It's insane actually!
I'm not through my first year yet when it comes to grief, but weirdly, the one thought that's helped is realising I'll never not be grieving. I kept thinking that I needed to 'get over it' but that made me feel like I was almost betraying the person I'm grieving for. Realising that my grief will always be with me, but that it will change over time, just seemed to take some of the weight off. Not sure if any of that made sense 🤷♀️💜
that totally makes sense! 🌷💛
We are here to hear the rambling because you are interesting and fun. Im 40 and I dont give a F! You do you and do not apologize. If Eminiem can blip in and out of the public, piss people off and leave again, you can do anything!
hahahahahh yes 😂
My sister is reading my copy of Honey Witch and she’s not even hundred pages into it and she says it amazing , so I’m excited to read it when she’s finally done x
I’m going to be honest I just adore this woman (and her children obviously) ❤❤
P.S. UK books aren’t as fragile as they seem (this is from a uk reader ) Atleast I haven’t found they are fragile xx
Oh that makes me excited to read it! It looks so cute. And that’s good to know, I just get so nervous to break them because my UK ones are my favorite editions usually 💛
Fantastic to see you back in another vlog 🎉🎉 loving it so far.
Romantasy box arrived here in UK today…🤐 I am going to give it a go is all I will say, parts of it fab, others not so.
oh no 🫢
I moved out of TX in February (back to Canada and now I'm in Massachusetts) and tbh I miss HEB hahahah it's my fav grocery store in North America!!!
It’s a great store!!
I enjoy your long vlogs ❤ I also used to like your coffee reels but just do whatever you like! Which - did you guys like the favor meals? We were thinking about getting them.
Awh thank you!! Are you meaning the Factor meals we got a few weeks ago? If so, I loved them! We talked about how when we aren't working from home again, they are the perfect thing to bring to work
@@oliviareadsalatte lol I did mean factor 😂 thanks for knowing what I meant and the info!
I just cleared out over 100 TH-cam channels. You are staying ♥ and I can't wait to see Jake the storm chaser ☺ It sure rains a lot there. I can't wait for the end of summer monsoons in Phoenix. 113 and sunny 🏜 Its hard watching you with your sweatshirts, but they are cute. Lynn
It does storm a lot this year! I'm definitely keeping this thermostat low, that's why the sweatshirts are out 😂💛
Just got my first box of Liquid IV to try (lemon lime). We are now selling them here in Canada at Walmart and Save On Foods grocery stores at least, plus Costco. But only certain flavors. I want to really try Concord Grape, White Peach, and Pear). I'm going to be in Seattle, Washington, in September. So, plan on hitting Target with my list. Which includes them❤
My current read also detaches and wobbles and i didn't stop reading it bc it was thrifted anyways but so far is completely ok and I've been reading it all month
I would recommend the Wild Robot by Peter Brown. its a younger kids read but sooo good about this robot named Roz who learns how to survive on an island and winds up befriending and helping the native wild life survive.Theres a movie coming out soon based on the book and im really excited and its a perfect survival read for summer!
Coffee berry actually is a real thing!! Coffee Beans are the pits of little cherry looking berries lol
👁️👁️
Olivia I love your vlogs so much 💖
I can relate to your "blinding forehead" because my cousins call me 5 head 🙄 oh well. I only use Instagram to follow people. Kind of creepy but it's what I do 😆 I don't have people follow me back, I always delete them. No social interaction here. But I understand why socials get too much. I mostly use it to stalk my favorite brands, people and what not. Oh and I don't have the sound on unless I want to hear what they have to say. Also creepy 😅 I love Bones. Seeing Booth and Bones on your TV has me wanting to binge ALL the seasons 🥰
For gardening my brother uses coco coir instead of dirt
that's a super popular tortoise substrate, maybe that would help 🤔
I am very behind on your videos but I am going to catch up I have just had a very bad couple of months with my mental health and we are grieving over the loss of our dog😢 just wanted to say your videos do help when you talk about mental health 💛💛
I’m so so sorry for your loss 💛
Hi Olivia!!! I was wondering where you got the lamp by your bedside? I’ve been looking for one like that for ages! So lovely ❤️
From Amazon actually!
@@oliviareadsalatte thanks for getting back to me love! Your vlogs have been keeping me company these lonely summer months ❤️ now I have a mission to find this lamp! 🥰
@lindsaym.4795 of course! I just looked up Tiffany lamp and they have so so many!
Your videos are everything - truly feels like a FT with my bestie (in a nonparasocial way)!
Only feedback - whatever the recent song you used in b roll that went “we can stay all day in bed! We’ll have a Netflix marathon etc etc” girl - that song drove me NUTS 🤣 in the grand scheme, not a big deal at all - turned the volume down at those parts. But you mentioned music in b roll so here I am to give my unsolicited opinion.
Love ya, mean it!
Thank you so much!! 💛🙉
And hahahahah omg noooo, I actually love bopping to that song but I’ll make a note about it for next time 🤣
Your SD holder just brough back Nintendo DS nostalgia
🤣🤣
Loved!
☕️💛
thanks for being my poolside podcast today🫶🏼 I heard you talk about the importing footage/timestamp thing & I use multiple SD cards (+iPhone clips sometimes) for my videos. Whenever I import into Final Cut Pro, they 99.9% of the time sort themselves into the right date even if the footage all in one folder doesn’t always line up in the right time order. Keep renaming if you enjoy it🙈
hahahah, I simply do ✨not✨ enjoy renaming them, but I do like it whenever it comes to having them super organized on my external hard drive. When I try to import directly on final cut, it always throws them in willy nilly, I have a theory it hates me 🤔
@@oliviareadsalatte that is most definitely the only logical option🥲 FCP can really get an attitude sometimes. I’m curious if it’s a camera setting or a SD card thing.
And When did u start driving? And What year? Bc I really want start driving for the first time P.s you are inspiring me to drive x Love your videos :)
I'm waiting for the day we have an Oppenheimer duration vlog. Also, ABBA? God tier.
Hahahha one day
Ginger the enthusiastic drinker of water❤
she loves her water 🐈
I also don't play horror games, but I don't mind watching someone else play them. One of my fondest childhood memories actually involves Resident Evil. I can't remember which one in the series. My brothers and their friend went out and hired the game. They played it during the evening and night, then continued the next day, and I watched them play it. At times it was stressful, gee wiz, but it was entertaining and fun.
That game scared me!
Definitely need to start doing movie review videos. I was giggling during your review
hahhaha thank you 😂
Omg where is there an HEB plus in Dallas?
Ft worth has a couple, Waxahachie, and Plano , soon to be frisco if it’s not already there. On my side they putting a Joe T’s who they say is from heb as well….
I had a schoolmate in grade 2 that was so short. He ran into the classroom doorknob one day.
Can you please share the heating pad link? My back needs 120 degrees of heat!😅
hahha it's technically a cat heating pad, but here you go! amzn.to/3VIDSNK
I watched "The Strangers" last weekend and omg I feel the same way! WTF
It wasn’t good 😭
we all need to remember, or be reminded every once and a while, to enjoy the little things.
🌷💛
not me convinced to do a Bones rewatch after only seeing a 2 second clip
Hahahaha yes 🙌🏼
♡♡♡
Love your content.
Spending the day reading my booky book as well.
Behind Her Eyes by Sarah Pinborough
i've deleted from instagram, tiktok, twitter, facebook for like 4 years. it had an immediate impact on me. the only social i have is i use youtube. it does make me feel a bit superior to others tbh because i've escaped the clutches of the algorithms but more importantly it makes me feel less mentally cluttered and less anxious d
feeling less cluttered is so accurate!! I feel like I'm getting used to the stillness that comes with not being as attached to my phone and it's such a change, but I like it a lot 💛
Girl, if this is helpful... one shot of espresso has around 65mg of caffeine in it, so 100mg is less than 2 cups of coffee (if you want to try the energy IV). ☕️☕️😘
I know, I just get weird about energy labeled drinks--I can't explain it, it's just my brain 😂
2:16:14 yes i can feminism! 😂😂 i really want to put together a shirt with all my fav olivia quotes.
🤣🤣🤣
TikTok is so bad for me I would spend hours after work and just feel bad that I wasn’t doing as much as everyone else or at least it felt that way. I have no will power so my account is now a “teen” account that my husband has control over. I only get an hour and a half a day 😂 but it works and I have so much time to actually do the stuff that others online were doing!!
that's a good idea!
An Other amazing Vlog Love it girl love it!!! Do u have Pinterest? :) It's okay if you don't x
I listened to the audio of The House that Horror Built and it was lacking the entire time for me. Truly couldn’t tell you anything about the ending
honestly, looking back, I now feel very much the same
8:33 i 100% got caught in the tornado 🥲😂
🫢
I quit Instagram and Reddit years ago, and I am a happier person for it. 😊
it's makes such a difference!
I have honey witch on my TBR but really skeptical to read it, let me know if anyone has read it and still recommends ?
I’ve heard good things so far!
I haven’t read Under The Done by Stephen King yet but you should read Fairy Tale it’s really good. I think you might like it too 🥰
I thought I was the only one that didn’t like romance in audiobooks 😂❤
It makes me crinnnnnnnge
Great vlog. 🍄🍉🍨🍓🌈🥤📚
Thank you! 🤗
No because when I set my instagram limit to 15 minutes a day it was great because I could still do a quick drive by of my friends or send a message but it wasn’t enough to doom scroll. Anyways the biggest change was that I realized how much crap I wouldn’t even care or stress about if it wasn’t for social media. For me it was parenting especially but it applies to everything. Like I wouldn’t care or even know if moms were out here making snackle boxes or if my fridge all had acrylic containers. Those would just not exist in my universe when I stopped scrolling and suddenly I only cared about things that mattered to me for real reasons
It is such a good amount of time because it doesn’t give you time to get into that comparison game while scrolling! I don’t find myself doom scrolling on TH-cam like I will on IG, which is kinda interesting.
Under the Dome was hella traumatic. I'd rather recommend The Mist or Needful Things. The Mist is a quick short read and Needful Things was a really interesting concept.
Why was it traumatic? I've heard good things about it and the show! The only one I've read by him was IT and half of the stand, so I'm definitely wanting to read both his older and newer works.
@@oliviareadsalatte there’s some pretty graphic scenes in it. Specifically against women. I loved the show and the book wasn’t necessarily bad but the horrible scenes are seared into my brain. I’d just read the trigger warnings before you jump into it. To me it was long AF and I didn’t get much out of it but horrible flashbacks.
You should check out the finale episode (S1E6) of Fantasmas (HBO Max), they have some hilarious Real Housewives satire skits mixed in there starring Emma Stone.
Just used my new milk frother to mix my water and liquid IV. And it splashed all over me😂😂. Lesson to self don't fill with too much water
I’ve done that so many times too!!!
Definitely a shock for sure 🤣🤣
What is the app you use to log your reading?
beanstack!
@@oliviareadsalatte thanks lovely!
I started reading Nettle and Bone (UK) and the papers fell apart
Oh no!
Are you doing summerween this year??
I am not 💛
🎥Movie reactors I watch consistently are Ashleigh Burton, Rob Squad Movie Reactions, Nikki and Steven React, and Scene'crly KSO. I admire all the work you put into your channel, particularly the editing part. I do eight a week, all lives because I don't want to look at myself (would be inviting being hypercritical and who wants that, not me) and it takes away from reading time. Do a live, get on with my day is my motto (which doesn't fit on a Tshirt without looking weird and people staring at one's chest). Time suck-wise, when I watch BookTubers or binging (currently Blue Bloods, 14 seasons oh yeah), I'm crocheting so I can actually say I'm being productive. I just started last year so I'm not that great but I'm learning. Currently working on a wedding afghan (wedding in October). As a gift, it keeps me from having squirrel moments and dropping that puppy like a hot potato (mixed metaphor and no puppies were dropped nor squirrels injured in any way )
Fairytale by Stephen King was soooo good!
I haven’t read that one 🫢
❤❤❤
🌷💛🐕
Under the Dome isn't one of his good ones. If you want a fantastic fantasy ... read The Eyes of the Dragon, he writes excellent fantasy.
I'll have to check it out!
@@oliviareadsalatte It's so worth it, and it's one of his shorter ones, you could probably read it in a day or two max, depending on your mood. lol
🐈🐈❤️❤️❤️
🌷💛
Instagram is more stressful than anything. I'm so sporadic with it and I don't mind
Good afternoon my dear friend

I’ve set time limits and down time on tik tok and insta and I delayed Twitter and I’ve been so much more focused I finished so much reading art and movies/tv that I wanted to. I’m going to continue bc I really believe I was way to consumed by them
I definitely agree with feeling like I was too consumed by them, too! I feel so much better being off of them so much more.
I know this video is hella old and I'm so behind, but the "Never work from bed" people are ableist. I said what I said. 👏
