Jen, you have grown so much in the last couple of months you need to pat yourself on the back and say "well done". I stumbled on your video when you did a pantry reorganisation time elapsed and have since watched so many of your videos, I love them. But this one was very special. You were so relaxed and at ease talking to us about your hopes and dreams for the coming year - you made me mist up at the end because yes it is a wonderful life we have and I thank you for being in it. Hugs Jude x
My resolution for this year is to work on the organization in my house. I have already started in the basement after putting the Christmas stuff away. I look forward to the next year of videos.
My resolutions for 2012! Fitness: Music is also a big part of my life. I have the radio on all the time because we have no tv. So I when I hear a song I dance to it. Well they have this 100 day dance challenge. I have committed my self to 30 mins a day of whatever dance. Normally it's just funky move don't care dance. I am loving this! Organization: since I have been watching your videos it has changed the way I think. I have learned that I have to get up and dressed for the day even if it
First, I have to say, I LOVE your long videos :) I work from home (I crochet baby hats ALL DAY LONG for newborn photography) and I usually have my laptop in front of me as I'm working and I really love your long videos because they keep me company. I feel like I'm hanging out with a friend :) This was a great video and thank you for sharing so much of your life with us in 2011. I personally have gained so much by being a subscriber to your channel. Happy New Year Jen!
I have no doubt that you will achieve all your goals and more this year Jen, I love it when you do these types of videos, you are truly inspiring, you don't even know the impact you leave on us and I can't even begin to describe how much I appreciate every single word you say. Good luck dear, you are loved by all of us:) kisses, Iman
I got your card in the mail the other day and love it! My resolutions are to stay organized as I finish my last semester of college and move on to graduate school, keep healthy, and show a positive attitude at all times. PS -- your eye makeup looks great!
My new years resolutions are to work on our basement and hope to get that done. I'm also like you and I worry waaaayyyyy too much! Then I stress out and suddenly I'm in a bad mood. I've been trying different things to help me with this for about two months now. Its a working process but its nice to find different methods. I enjoy this channel VERY much! I look forward to new videos. I hope you have a blessed new year and hope many of the things on your list is done with out you stressing out :)
Great, great video Jen. Don't understand people who say they love your videos but they are too long- the detail and thoroughness of all your videos are one of the things I love so much. The longer the better for me! You have inspired me to make resolutions which I haven't done for years. Can't wait to see your new videos and projects for 2012 x
i can't wait to see your loftice! i love looking at those things... it gives me ideas on how to organize my home office/makeup room. i love your long videos, too! it just takes forever to upload them! LOL my new years resolutions video is currently being uploaded as i type this.
Geocaching is a real-world outdoor treasure hunting game. Players try to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, using GPS-enabled devices and then share their experiences online. My DH and I love it. But to be hounest... we only do it when the wether is good :)
Can you please talk about what you have done to prepare for your half marathon?? I will be running in my first one in September of this year, & I am sort of concerned about where & how I should preform moving forward! Many Thanks!
Jen! You are sooo blessed...I love watching your videos. I feel like i'm hanging out with you...your fun! I love the life you have made for yourself and I look up to you! I know your year will be filled with many more blessing!
Definitely go with Word Press! I use it for my blog The Grass Skirt and love it. If you're curious about the name of the designer I used for my logo and everything, let me know. She's really reasonable and specializes in female businesses and blogs. :) Can't wait for your loftice tour. Happy New Year! :)
Love, love, love the long videos! You have such a sweet spirit and you've motivated me to make some resolutions again! I've already started organizing different areas in my home and it feels so good! Thanks for all the inspiration! You rock!
I would love to hear you play Piano!....I use your organization "Projects" to do at my House.....So whatever you do I will do a version...So what is up for January? LO
Loved this video! Thank you for sharing! My resolutions are a long list, some that I need to do and some if possible to do. The focus is being a better me for me and also so I can be of help to others. Jen please do blog your crafting and baking, would love to be inspired!
Another inspiring video...thanks for reminding me that when things aren't going well, I should still be grateful for my life. :) 2011 was a rough year, so I'm looking forward to 2012 with renewed hope. Because of your video, my 2012 resolution is return to my gratitude journal and remind myself how much I really do have to be grateful for. Happy New Year!
Great resolutions, Jen! Mine are 1. Keep a Gratitude Journal, 2. Read Simple Abundance Daybook, 3. Drink water, 4. Continue my weight loss journey (43 pounds so far), and 5. Be happy & content with my life & what I have!
My NY resolutions are. 1. Find a job 2. Loosing as much weight as i possibly can without following a real diet. 3. To be happy 4. Find a good thing that happened to me every day... 5. To scrapbook, making cards, sewing and Geocaching as much as i can...
Scentsy is awesome!! It's warmers that you plug in with wax and it melts and makes your house smell wonderful. You don't have to worry about fires like you do with candles. It's also safe if you have kids or pets. Scentsy offers over 80 scents. I started selling Scentsy back in November 2010 and I love it!!!
@sol8sol I understand how some could want a quick snippet & move on in today's A.D.D.-like media world. However, I love how detailed Jen's videos are & appreciate everything she includes on any particular topic & that just takes time. The good news for those in a time crunch is you can watch ten minutes, minimized the video, move on to other things, come back expand the video, watch another ten minutes, minimize... etc. Something for EVERYONE! Great job Jen. Look forward to your detailed videos.
Great Video. NY resolutions are great but need to be mangabale. I can't see how you possibly comment back to everyone, if you want to do all of this as well. Pace yourself! Lovely loftus btw.
@luvslagos if it was painful, why did you watch it? Jen can make vids as long as she wants to, about any sibject and can go one for hours if she wishes. You have a choice. Turn it off, skip bits. If was obvioulsy all pertinant to her. Why you be mindful of being so rude?
@sol8sol I kind of like her videos being long because shows I would watch on television are about 30-60 minutes long and so her videos are like another show I look forward to watching each week. :) And plus the more she talks the more we get to know her and see that she is real and not just posting to impress people, but to help people by explaining more. So I agree that they are long, but I wouldn't say they are too long. Just sayin'
Jen- I think we have the exact same resolutions this year! You remind me so much of someone I know and it's so weird how I found your channel this past summer. I think we have the same personality and same goals in life and it's nice to come watch your videos or look thru your old videos to help myself stay on track. I too have problems with anxiety and things like that but being organized and centered has helped me so much! Please keep making these amazing videos- happy new year! xox-alex
@organizedlikejen Her name is Renee Demming and her website is Studio Bold. If you want to see her work, you can also Google my blog (I cannot post the link for some reason). It is The Grass Skirt blog (a health and wellness blog). She did my logo and everything and also the website for my business (which is under my Health Coaching tab on my blog). Anyway, she's just the sweetest! :)
Scentsy are these scented little cute lights that smell good. My mom has been having Scentsy parties and buying them for the house, only reason why I know. Thought you would want to know because of no respond of the other person. Personally, I think its useless but others disagree. They are very nice in bathrooms though, cute and smell great.
@luvslagos Painful? Seriously? If you only want the facts, perhaps a book on organization. And when exactly did you PURCHASE this instructional course on organization? Wow... unbelievable. Grateful much? Just so you know, this is a lovely lady sharing HER LIFE (which happens to be pertinent), HER PERSPECTIVE (pertinent again) & her organizational style (you got it, also pertinent). Serious introspection is needed here. "Simple Abundance" is a great start! Hope you find what you're looking for.
Have you heard of Scentsy before? I feel like it would look SO SO SO cute in your house and smell so yummy. Feel free to get in touch with me if you're interested :)
@organizedlikejen You would LOVE LOVE LOVE it! They offer other options but basically it's a warmer with scented wax to put in so it's safe and smells amazing. My facebook page for Scentsy is listed on my profile. I would love to mail or drop off the new spring testers and a catalog if you want to be the first to smell them :)

@Dietcokepat It's a website that you join where you can create "boards" (categories) where you "pin" pictures - either your own or from the internet.

Would love to see a video on how you organize your marathon and food journal

@Imanthepeep Aww thanks :)
Hey Jen I love your videos but they are just too long
Maybe shorten your videos, 30minutes is quite long.
@kimberd03 omg, best job ever :D
