- Happy 4th of July, everyone! Just a quick video, the second in my "Organizing Your Time" series. I hope you guys enjoy it!
Check out my other TH-cam channel:
/ myhousewifelife
I'll be back in a couple of weeks with new videos...
@Couturegal123 I always knew I'd make a great housewife and eventually a stay-at-home mom. Some people do better in a work situation, others do better at home. I am a total homebody and relish taking care of my house and family. To me, it is my ideal "job" and where I am happiest. I think you just have to figure out what works best for you and do your best to make that a reality. I am always busy, happy, and never EVER find myself bored.
Please answer this! How can you keep yourself occupied while staying at home? My dad was a stay at home dad for a year after he lost his job and it drove him crazy! How do you keep sane?
I'm requesting an update of this video :) I like hearing about how and when you journal! I'm wondering if you have kept up with this, and how it's going. Thanks!
I would love an update from her on this too!
A 2020 update!
do u have a video about how u journal? i just graduated from high school early and i was really looking into journaling and i have no idea where to start. if you have any tips please help would be appreciated
hey! i completely know what you mean - some people thinkk it's wierd to schedule yourself time but i think it refreashes you! i couldn't get by without grey's anatomy and reading - just bought myself the kindle!! great video again -LOVE-
I just arrived home after taking some time to have a chicken salad sandwich and a treat frappuccino while I loaded a new book onto my nook. I needed to have a moment to breathe after a long hard day at my volunteer job. I love to write, and am so happy that one of my best friends makes me the most beautiful art collaged journals. They inspire me to write on and on...
That Day books sounds fabulous. I have an angel book which is basically the same principle. I try and journal everyday as well. I have a gratitude Journal. I should keep doing it.I havent watched tv in two years, we do watch movies and shows but I dont really care to much.
your hair looks so pretty right now!
@alittletweak That's a tough one. I really like Shape & Self the best I guess. It would be hard to pick one. I recommend going to your local drugstore or bookstore and spending some time perusing the women's health & fitness section. Maybe you could narrow it down to a few favorites to purchase and then take them home and consider which one you like the best? That's what I would do if I could only subscribe to just one.
@OurBump I have a skincare routine video on myhousewifelife channel where I describe my nighttime skincare routine.
@rprmlr772 I do travel with all of them (although sometimes I leave my food journal at home if I need a bit of a break from that). I often take a small travel journal with me, as well, to document for future scrapbooks.
@MeliMe2 of course! I actually give some to my Mom, leave lots at sirports and on planes for other people to read, and the rest I hang onto and use to cut out for collages and such and then I recycle what's left
@torr18 I don't know what I would have done without scheduled in reading & writing breaks in college. I was a bit of an intense student!
@southerncouponista No, it's just a regular day-by-day diary style kind of calendar. I believe it's by the company called Paperblanks.
@Lynnfrost31 I hope to do some book reviews soon, but I have so many videos I'm still catching up on uploading on myhousewifelife...I figured I'd wait to do those until I'm a bit more caught up.
Reading and Journaling is very important to me. After work (during the late afternoon) I go to Starbucks, order a coffee, and read and write. Works for me.
Hi Jen! As much as I am happy for where you are at in life now, I miss your old videos. Hence I am here revisiting old videos. Too bad some videos apparently have been deleted. Wish you and your family well. Thank you for bringing so much fun for the past 12 years? 11? God bless.
I have journalled since age 15, and I am 70.
@luvslagos it's been a really beneficial daily practice for me to end my day positively no matter what happened.
oh! wow! you have my very favourite book! Simple Abundance!
@thedrommerhausens I could do that, it would be on my other channel, though - myhousewifelife
@luckys49292 It's on my to-do list and will be coming up soon!
@Lisasteafanie It's on the list!
i like the way you think, tfs
@mostagreeable Heaven!
Hey Jen, do you take all your journals with you when you travel? I travel a lot as well but the only journal I take with me is my travel journal, which helps me remember things when I do my travel scrapbook.
I find that i eat slower if i read or watch youtube vids while i do so.... i guess its diff for you. but you are right its better to eat slower so ur body feels the food so you dont overeat
Another great video. Still working my through your older videos. I'd love to see how you organise a typical day or week. That's something I'm really struggling with yet know a daily routine would make everything much easier. Hope you're having a great time at WDW.
@organizedlikejen awesome! Hope it didn't sound like a criticism..lol My mom used to get loads of magazines too, and I just cringe at wasted paper! She would do the same and try to find ways to recycle..but it became so much easier when the city started curbside recycling! :D
Nice video, I would love to know more about what books you read! I am a magazine addict, even though I allow myself to get two magazine subscriptions at a time.
To relax I love to read, read read! I love to read before bed each night. I am a teacher and also a grad student and it helps me calm down and get ready to go to sleep. No matter how tired I am I try to fit in at least one chapter a night. In the summer I try and read a few books a week.
Please please please could you do a What's in my school bag video/organization for school video?? I know it may kinda hard to do since you are not in school but it would help me out A LOT!! Love your videos-3 x
I'd also love to see a daily routine video. Even though I know my routine would be a little different since I work outside the home.
while doing other things! I have almost 700 audible books, newspapers etc on my pod/phone/computer. you can put the books on all your electronics! I am planing to make a video one day on grandma wisdom!
I wish I could be like you. I am housewife but my energy is not grounded and clam like yours :( but I am glad i watched your Video .. Kepp it UP!!!
I make time for my reading everyday too! Magazines and books that I like! Since I have so much reading to do for school it does take up most of my free time so I make sure to set a little time aside for my own interests. Oh and I love the gratitude journal idea! I think I will go out and get a nice journal to write in daily and maybe even get my kids to do it too :) Thank you for all the great ideas!!! :)
Thanks for the video, it was a pleasure. Your very sweet and I love watching your videos. I hope you also take time for yourself and don't worry so much about the youtube videos it's not a high priority. But I am very grateful for what you have posted, they really got me thinking. Thanks so much. :)
I was in love with the idea of the Gratitude journal when it first debuted on Oprah years back. Like most of my great schemes, I fell off the wagon. I have now recommitted to the idea of keeping the journal and writing things down in another notebook. It's been a week and I already feel compelled to do it daily as does my daughter--so we do it together and support each other in the quest for a fulfilling life. Thanks as always for the inspiration--you rock!
I love your videos on all of your channels. You inspire me so much. I only recently found them, but I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos. I want to be organized like you:)
Love reading MSL...I do keep them and each month I will haul all the January issues out from the past and re read them and get inspired to do a project from one of the books. I love the gratitude journal idea! Positive energy is always a good thing! ;)
Jen, can u please do a video on what's in your car and how u organize it :-) Thanks and keep up the good work!
Could you make a video on how you keep your house clean, especially with the dust. Please. Happy Day 8o)
I don't like to eat and drink at the same time either... :)
Thanks for the video!
I have that Simple Abundance book too! I never went through it all but I enjoyed the parts I've read. :)
Is your gratitude journal the one that accompanies the Simple Abundance book?
Wow you read as many magazines as I like to read. Where did you get your basket at?
I also have that simple abundance book and I love it..it us so helpful from day to day.
oh wow I was bout to be 34 on July 4th when this video was posted. cool
Ran into this older video, too. I have a 'magazine problem' and I'd love to hear an update on your subscriptions and reading. I really have a drama about tearing out craft ideas, recipes, decorating and clothes stuff and WHAT TO DO WITH ALL THOSE???? Help!
Talk about a magazine problem...lol. I have magazines 20 years old I still am going through reading one by one. I will not throw away until read. I have Rolling Stone magazines from 1992-1994 I still need to read. It's fun to read through old magazines to see the old news stories and see the old ads, including when they still had cigarette ads in magazines lol
Jen, this is such great advice! Hope you know your appreciated for all you put out there.
you're my role model and my inspiration. i wanna be you when i grow up
Thanks again another wonderful video. Thankyou for sharing.
I love your show, for you are so kind and positive! You nevera
please tell me you recycle those magazines...;o)
do you have any packing tips videos?
can you give a tour of your gratitude journal??
you are awesome
❤️❤️❤️
I can't tell if this is a joke or not.
she seems manic.
