Hey fam! Welcome to 12 days of Vlogmas day 1 ❤I truly COULDN'T BELIEVE waking up to over $5,000 donated for the Ali Forney Center. That is SO unreal to me since the fundraiser announcement has only been live for a day. I'll be posting about the progress on my community tab today, but just wanted to give a HUMUNGOUS thank you to everyone who donated or spread the word or even watched yesterday's video in support. You're changing lives. Here's the donation link for anyone interested: fundraise.aliforneycenter.org/chelsea-callahan ❤❤❤See you tomorrow for another video! Edit: I'll just keep raising the goal amount as we go!! Next goal is $7k!
@@ChelseaCallahan My kiddo came out last year, we live in the Netherlands where I feel there is more tolerance and acceptance - still not totally safe though 😔 Happy to donate: once in my name, and later on we’ll donate in her name as well ❤️
Also I saw some comments yesterday in hopes I brought back the coffee advent calendar!! I decided not to because it was too confusing for me for continuity haha. But I'll keep it in mind for another year if enough people want it! ☕
Please do as I am not a coffee drinker (thanks to perimenopause I've had to really drastically reduce my caffeine intake) so I live vicariously through people like yourself :)
This community is top tier, I truly love the content and reading the comments every week. We have to think of a name for our little corner of positivity!! Much love to everyone, hope you’re having the best day and if you’re not remember this is just a small splinter of time, you’re strong, you’ll get through it! 🧡
Thanks for this reminder... I'm going through a very difficult last week, and on, into this next, with a bad hospital experience for my elderly but otherwise healthy mother. She went into the ER last Saturday seeming none the worse for the wear, so much that my sister and I didn't even think she'd get admitted. Cut to: admitted, horrific reactions to badly prescribed meds, then choking on an applesauce medicine administration, leading to a frantic call at 2am one morning asking if I give permission to intubate her and place her on a respirator! 😭 It looked like she wasn't going to make it!! The stress of watching your loved one receive "care" that in fact is harmful is beyond fathomable. Shout out to anyone else going through such a thing. To advocate for our sick loved one is ... really hard. But thanks for reminding me. We will move through and forward out of the dark patches of time. ❤️ And wholeheartedly agree, Chelsea's Community is like none other! 🫂
@@megmulholland4518I just read your comment and am so sorry that you and your family have to go through all of this 💔 I take care of my grandma and can therefore totally understand how hard this all is for you. I’m sending you and your mom all my love and positive energy ❤
Excellent, so true! Think about your moment to moment...most of our lives are good/positive. But the human brain wants to focus on the negative. Life is moment to moment, that's why neither positive nor negative last. Everything is impermanent. Life is good.... Thanks, @Serendipitous69 and Chelsea!
Chelsea listennnn…. you keep putting out these “Living Alone” in NYC vlogs youre going to have to change them to “Chelsea & Company” becauseeee the vlogs are everything. I love the bookstore and cozy weather vibes. A move to NYC is looking real nice. TH-cam Coffee Shop Link up once we all move there. Calling it now.😆🤗😊
A perfect day for me is waking up early to go to the gym, drinking a nice café latte afterwards, watching some sports event like Formula 1, MotoGP or football (or Olympics), eating a good lunch that I've made (or order Turkish food :D), eating some nice dessert in the afternoon with a second coffee and then maybe going cycling if the weather is nice. Then just staying in for the evening and watching a movie with some snacks. :) Nothing crazy. I am in grandma mode. :D
I feel like my "perfect day" has changed over the years. Before it would have been going out and doing all the things. NOW that I am older and work a time consuming and demanding job. I take the rare chance of staying home and doing absolutely nothing as a rare jewel. A day of sitting in "comfy clothes" on the couch and just chilling. Resting my mind and my body.
Perfect day: breakfast out at Café Latté. I 2-3 mile walk with my dog, great sandwich at home for lunch, food on the grill at home for dinner (salmon, veggies, grill baked potato), good ice cream for dessert, and just chill at home reading or watching TV.
A perfect day… snowed in with no obligations…good food, coffee, doing some art, reading and romping in the snow. And no obligations.. did I say that?? 😊
Perfect day: sunshine, lunch at the park with a book, a chance to work on some knitting, then hot tea, grilled cheese sandwich for supper, finish with a funny movie. Somewhere in there a conversation with my friend of almost 60 years. Perfection comes from lots of things, but always the people and thinks you respect and love.
I find myself reminiscing about weekend mornings when I was single. I would wake up and make coffee and breakfast and take it all back to bed. After I was done I’d sit and read through my cook books trying to decide what to make for dinner. Then I would close the books and burrow back under the covers for a snooze before getting up and going to the store to get whatever I needed for the recipe I’d chosen. Those were the days!
I just got engaged and you’re already making me miss my cozy slow single Sunday mornings… I’d bring my book du jour or laptop to a coffee shop to read/work for a couple of hours. Hmm I guess I can still do that!
I don't consider myself a 'city' person per se, I'm more a fan of natural landscapes and such (even though I do live in a small city lol)...so, it is always SOooo interesting to me to watch your 'day in the life in NYC' videos like this. New York City is not on my list of places to go, but it sure does look lovely as seen through your eyes. So much is relatable like the book shopping, journalling and meandering through cool neighborhoods and of course all that delicious food! Looking forward to see what you film for us next. P.S. Perfect day for me: good coffee, books, lighting candles in the morning and afternoon, since it gets dark at 4 pm. Crocheting, knitting, reading and/or watching Gilmore Girls with my fireplace on, and a cozy blankie. Getting so engrossed in my book that I lose all sense of place and time, and every now and then I look up and glance out at the snowflakes on my window sill. Fall into a deep dreamless sleep, wake up and do it all over again. That's my idea of perfect day. Cheers. :)
I think you are one of the very few young ones that I am happy to see you are doing this TH-cam for a living. I'm old at 55 and never would have thought this would be the way of the world today. To put that in perspective we had 4 computers in my school and has floppy disks.
When I was in high school, there were no computers. I had to type my term papers on a MANUAL typewriter, no erasures allowed. Boy, I'm glad those days are over.
My perfect day for me is waking up super early, working out, exploring the city or walking in my neighborhood, grabbing a cup of coffee and feeling the cold air in NYC.
I make myself sit down and read at least 15 pages a day. Maybe setting yourself a page goal will help you to get back into reading. I’m currently in the last 100 pages of the final throne of glass book - it’s one heck of a journey, enjoy!
What a great video!!! Seriously. Looking forward to these next 11 days with you. You help me relax after a long day of work and being a mom to a toddler. Love your vibe, love your realism, love you!! See you tomorrow. 💙💙
I love your videos Chelsea! Living in the French countryside, a perfect day for me starts with coffee, then a long sunny walk with my dog and my partner, strolling in a charity shop, eating at a nice restaurant, more walking under the sun and then getting back home, getting cosy with a fire on and watching the new episode of a series I love, or the new videos of a youtuber I love, like you 💗
A perfect day for me starts at the Crack of dawn and includes a lot of time in nature. It ends with an evening with good music, yummy food and surrounded by people I love
A perfect day for me is a snow day. Being in warm, cozy clothes, and reading throughout the day. Then at night watching a movie, and having dinner with a glass of wine.
My perfect day is a cozy cuddle puddle on the couch with my dog and my 2 cats, watching cheesy movies, drawing on my iPad, and sipping hot happy beverages. Aaaaahhhh thanks for helping me decide what to do today! 🫶
I watch your videos all the time I think you're amazing. I was supposed to be going to move to New York for work around February at this coming year I want to say thank you for showing me New York. Thank you for showing me that New York can be cozy and have a small town feel in a big city. Have a wonderful day and keep being you!
Thank you Chelsea for taking us along to Manhattan. To me, a perfect day is picking a neighborhood in Manhattan and just exploring and enjoying what the area has to offer. Especially the food.
Happy Vlogmas from Arizona (former New Yorker) ... I miss NY so much. Thank you for always bringing a bit of home back to me. Your vids always make me happy. Thanks for being you, be real and so down to earth. Merry Merry.🌲
A perfect day for me is a day I can play with my take my kids to the park, come home and watch a movie or TV show with my wife, and end the night playing video games when my family is sleeping.
I havent had a perfect day in a long time. It would start with sleeping as long as I'd like, then a nice breakfast or brunch. Id probably snuggle up on the couch and watch a comfort show or movie and then have a nice dinner that gives homecooked vibes 🥰
with vlogmas back that means i’ve been watching for a year now! so much of both of our lives have changed in 2024 and for the better, glad to be here (and get inspo for a nyc visit)
Last year Vlogmas pushing Chelsea over the 100K mark. December was such a good time to focus on yourself and pour your heart into this work. It paid off!!
Burrowing and staying in thank you for validating my brain. Conserving and using your energy else where, winter is great for that. Plus kitty cuddle time and din din time! 😊
I love the concept of sharing your ideal 24 hours! I used to ask guys this question on dating apps if they had a free 24 hours to themselves, no responsibilities, friends are busy, what would they do to entertain themselves!
AWWW, love to see a Veselka shoutout!!!! I'm Ukrainian and also grew up going to school in that neighborhood, so it feels extra special. Perfect start to Vlogmas. :)
I'm so very excited about Vlogmas!! Your vlogs are so interesting. I ❤ them so much. Also, I'm really enjoying when you venture outside in the city because I just love NYC. A perfect day for me is staying inside in pajamas all day, just eating and watching TV. 😊Take care and have a wonderful day!
I had the prefect reading a book on the couch with my female cat laying on me, purring the whole. The vibe was sweet with my electric fireplace on and light off.
this is such a perfect video. The cozy vibes are coming through the screen! My perfect day includes a hot chocolate and a brownie from my favourite cafe, walking along the water and reading a romance book :)
Ah this is so cozy! I think my perfect day would have to be cuddled up under some warm blankets with a cup of tea, my cats and working on my novel. Looking forward to all your vlogmas videos! ❤
YAYYYY VLOGMAS!!!!! My family and I always have cinnamon rolls on the day we celebrate Christmas, so this made my heart so happy watching you start your day like that! 🤎
On the first day of Vlogmas, our dear Chelsea gave to her community: her perfect day in NYC 🥰 First-time subbie and commenter here! Thank you for doing this vlogmas - I'm building a business and look forward to each of your awesome videos to remind myself I'm not alone 💝
Thank U! For making these type of videos. I also live alone in NYC, just moved here, and it’s so nice and comforting to know others are also having solo days that are so fulfilling ❤
Chelsea!! I’ve been a silent viewer for a while and have been following your journey for a few years. You’re one of my comfort youtubers and I’m so excited you’re doing vlogmas this year again 🩷 Take care of yourself and happy holidays~
Whenever I’ve hit a reading slump I turn to YA books to get back in it. It helps me get the habit back and build my stamina back up. I’m so amazed at your ability to vlog in public. Just the thought makes me queasy lol Great day one of vlogmas 🥰
Thank you for your warmth, kindness and awesomeness! Over the last months you’ve been cheering me up and giving lots of inspiration and support:) you are great! And very excited for your vlogmases💓
Hi Chelsea, thanks for sharing a great day with us! Also, many thanks for choosing Veselka, a truly homemade and authentic Ukrainian place for lunch! 💙💛
My perfect day. Is a nice warm Epson bath. A good book. And hot coffee with good comfort food with a good movie and napping. Blessings to you and you wonderful channel ❤
I was so excited to see you had posted this! I was hoping for the coffee calendar.😏 I just think it’s wonderful to see you for 12 days you are so soft spoken and kind you make me smile. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and life.
so excited for the next 12 days!!! i always look forward to your vlogs and LOVE that the start of vlogmas was your ideal 24 hours 💓 i feel inspired to make some cinnamon buns and do all the cozy things now haha
Good morning Chelsea and happy Sunday. My perfect day is being off from my job and just chilling at home. I try to sleep in a little and drink my coffee looking out at the man made pond in our apartment complex. It sometimes has ducks. I love to look at them 😊.
back in my safe space (your videos and the comment section) this sunday!!!!🎄🎄 and 12 days of vlogmas?! what a TREAT! This vlog was so cozy, exactly how i'd spend a perfect day off too ❤ love ya see you next time xxxxx
That part of the video where you talked about making your perfect day by taking things slow enough to enjoy what you’re doing really resonated with me. I’m trying to get to a stage where I can do that more. Right now as I watch this, I was eating my breakfast, sipping on kombucha and drawing. And in my mind I felt like I was rushing myself to do all these things but I’m trying to do them mindfully and really savor these activities instead of checking them off of an arbitrary list
Wow Chelsea, I’m glad to hear you talking about slowing the day and fully embracing the moments, just perfect ❤❤❤. Love the markets and the food, all looked fantastic. My perfect day is; up early about 6.30pm and off to a strength training session. Meet friends for breakfast/brunch or high tea. Pottering in my raised garden, talk g on the phone and preparing a delicious dinner. Into the shower at 5pm ish and bed by 9pm ❤❤❤
I’m so happy you are doing vlogmas that makes it fit for you! Since finding your channel shortly after the brunt of Covid I’ve always just connected to your aesthetic… yes babe you are a vibe- believe it! I’m here for your videos regardless of vlogmas, you’re the little sis I always wished I had…. I’m the youngest and my brothers and I have just been disjointed for decades now and definitely miss the feeling of belonging somewhere (within family) and maybe that winter arc theory makes sense and I can find a way to make it work for me. I am excited to be a silent watcher & excited to see what adventures you take on next, keep smashing it doll! 💕
Hi Chelsea, I love your blog channel. You really inspire me to get out and do things on my own and live this crazy messy life to the fullest like no one's watching so thank you for that ❤
The eating the cinnamon roll raw is so real, when those sweet cravings kick in I truly will eat just about anything. Also when my attention span just isn’t doing it for reading, I love an audiobook, I have the Libby app which is through the library so it’s completely free and you can get them through there!!
Hi Chelsea! My perfect day is just getting to go home from work or where ever I'm at. These past three years I have been learning to sit still and just breathe and enjoy my peace. Three years ago I ended a relationship of 16 years full of anxiety and stress!!! And me foolishly tolerating it cause I didn't want to be alone! It hasn't been easy but I love what I have now! Take care!
The perfect day starts with a Chelsea Callahan video, of course! I coud almost smell those cinnamon rolls. Must admit, my reading has exponentially declined now I've discovered TH-cam, but loved The Strand and their book Christmas tree. Looking at all the unhoused books covering my floor ... hmmm.
A perfect day always includes good food, either making it yourself or treating yourself to go out. Being somewhere in the nature would also be a part of a perfect day. Then getting home and have some snacks and watch something nice (like your vlogs).
I’ve always been a silent viewer. But its always so nice to step into a bookstore and get books hehehe 😝 you can never have too many books, there’s always “some” time to read - something I keep telling myself but yet adding on to the never ending pile 😂 yay to vlogmas ❤
So many scenarios could make a perfect day for me. Ahhh I can’t choose. You’re right it really is about what feeling we’re wanting to get out of thr day plus I love being home alone (even tho I love my husband) sooooo something fun for a couple of hours outside and then uninterrupted time at home for the rest of thr day!
Oh God, Veselka how I miss thee!! Nostalgia galore!! Please go back and steal one of their plates for me. Shhh! ☺️ And then go to Fish’s Eddy (more nostalgia!) and buy a fabulous plate for yourself. And then pack up The Strand and ship the whole damn thing to my house!! Nostalgia on steroids!! No, I’m fine. I’m just a Midwest gal with a New York heart but fortunately I’ve got your vlogs to keep that part of me alive. 🙌 Oh, and it was incredibly challenging for me to get any reading done this year too. But my poor broken brain (menopause + ADHD is no joke, world) is finally getting better. WooHoo! Sorry, I’m oversharing today! Haha! 🤣 Congrats on the new books and the perfect NYC day! Clink, clink! ☕️🗽☕️
Hey fam! Welcome to 12 days of Vlogmas day 1 ❤I truly COULDN'T BELIEVE waking up to over $5,000 donated for the Ali Forney Center. That is SO unreal to me since the fundraiser announcement has only been live for a day. I'll be posting about the progress on my community tab today, but just wanted to give a HUMUNGOUS thank you to everyone who donated or spread the word or even watched yesterday's video in support. You're changing lives. Here's the donation link for anyone interested: fundraise.aliforneycenter.org/chelsea-callahan ❤❤❤See you tomorrow for another video! Edit: I'll just keep raising the goal amount as we go!! Next goal is $7k!
I have a child and 2 nieces in the LGBT community so I was thrilled to donate to this cause. Thank you for choosing them ❤
@@ChelseaCallahan My kiddo came out last year, we live in the Netherlands where I feel there is more tolerance and acceptance - still not totally safe though 😔
Happy to donate: once in my name, and later on we’ll donate in her name as well ❤️
um at 1:04 the phantom be looking a little off
Happy Vlogmas Day One Chelsea 🎉
Would you be able to do an episode for ppl who are interested in running and how to get things started?
Also I saw some comments yesterday in hopes I brought back the coffee advent calendar!! I decided not to because it was too confusing for me for continuity haha. But I'll keep it in mind for another year if enough people want it! ☕
@@ChelseaCallahan coffee segment was pure gold please consider bringing it back for 2025 vlogmas!!
I vote for an Advent calendar back! They have all different kinds besides coffee if that helps.
Please do as I am not a coffee drinker (thanks to perimenopause I've had to really drastically reduce my caffeine intake) so I live vicariously through people like yourself :)
I did love the daily coffee!! Notes for future Chelsea :)
Could you at least bring back the santa cup. I miss him!
I'm SOOO EXCITED we get a video from you every day for 12 days 🥲 such a treat
❤❤❤
This community is top tier, I truly love the content and reading the comments every week. We have to think of a name for our little corner of positivity!! Much love to everyone, hope you’re having the best day and if you’re not remember this is just a small splinter of time, you’re strong, you’ll get through it! 🧡
@Serendipitous69 We could call it the "Callahan Club of Positivity"!
I agree completely ❤ love from Melbourne, Australia 🎉❤🎉
Thanks for this reminder...
I'm going through a very difficult last week, and on, into this next, with a bad hospital experience for my elderly but otherwise healthy mother. She went into the ER last Saturday seeming none the worse for the wear, so much that my sister and I didn't even think she'd get admitted.

To advocate for our sick loved one is ... really hard. But thanks for reminding me. We will move through and forward out of the dark patches of time. ❤️ And wholeheartedly agree, Chelsea's Community is like none other! 🫂
@@megmulholland4518I just read your comment and am so sorry that you and your family have to go through all of this 💔
I take care of my grandma and can therefore totally understand how hard this all is for you. I’m sending you and your mom all my love and positive energy ❤
Excellent, so true! Think about your moment to moment...most of our lives are good/positive. But the human brain wants to focus on the negative. Life is moment to moment, that's why neither positive nor negative last. Everything is impermanent. Life is good....
Thanks, @Serendipitous69 and Chelsea!
Chelsea listennnn…. you keep putting out these “Living Alone” in NYC vlogs youre going to have to change them to “Chelsea & Company” becauseeee the vlogs are everything. I love the bookstore and cozy weather vibes. A move to NYC is looking real nice. TH-cam Coffee Shop Link up once we all move there. Calling it now.😆🤗😊
Haha you're right, I can't keep leaving out my cats like this 🤣A coffee shop link up would be so fun
@@ChelseaCallahanI’m down!!
Agree, "Chelsea and Company" sounds like a positive vibe. what a great suggestion.
@ Thanks! She has the cats and TH-cam fam. She keeps us company and We (Cats & Us) keep her company.☺️

i’m living vicariously through your cozy vibes from a disgustingly hot australian summer!
I had the prefect reading a book on the couch with my female cat laying on me, purring the whole. The vibe was sweet with my electric fireplace on and light off.
this is such a perfect video. The cozy vibes are coming through the screen! My perfect day includes a hot chocolate and a brownie from my favourite cafe, walking along the water and reading a romance book :)
Ah this is so cozy! I think my perfect day would have to be cuddled up under some warm blankets with a cup of tea, my cats and working on my novel. Looking forward to all your vlogmas videos! ❤
YAYYYY VLOGMAS!!!!! My family and I always have cinnamon rolls on the day we celebrate Christmas, so this made my heart so happy watching you start your day like that! 🤎
On the first day of Vlogmas, our dear Chelsea gave to her community: her perfect day in NYC 🥰 First-time subbie and commenter here! Thank you for doing this vlogmas - I'm building a business and look forward to each of your awesome videos to remind myself I'm not alone 💝
Thank U! For making these type of videos. I also live alone in NYC, just moved here, and it’s so nice and comforting to know others are also having solo days that are so fulfilling ❤
aww my 9 y/o says Gilmore Girls makes her day perfect. I'm a single mom so I extra love how much she loves the show, it's us!
so cute!!!!!
So excited to see that you raised so much money! I love our little community ❤️
My perfect day is being at home vlogging and phantom bud and seeing my favorite youtubers like u
Chelsea!! I’ve been a silent viewer for a while and have been following your journey for a few years. You’re one of my comfort youtubers and I’m so excited you’re doing vlogmas this year again 🩷 Take care of yourself and happy holidays~
What a nice way to start my day lazy Sunday
Coffee and Chelsea!
I love this for me. For us! Happy first day of vlogmas, yall
I couldn't agree more - perfect way to start a Sunday!!! YAY US! Wishing you a great day 🥰
I am so excited for your vlogmas, i love your videos they are so comforting keep it up. :)
Whenever I’ve hit a reading slump I turn to YA books to get back in it. It helps me get the habit back and build my stamina back up.
I’m so amazed at your ability to vlog in public. Just the thought makes me queasy lol
Great day one of vlogmas 🥰
Thank you for your warmth, kindness and awesomeness! Over the last months you’ve been cheering me up and giving lots of inspiration and support:) you are great! And very excited for your vlogmases💓
Hi Chelsea, thanks for sharing a great day with us! Also, many thanks for choosing Veselka, a truly homemade and authentic Ukrainian place for lunch! 💙💛
Ooh the coffe advent calendar was really cute last year🥲😭
Love watching your "best day" videos! Honestly, the sights, the music and the foods you share makes me just drool ❤
My perfect day. Is a nice warm Epson bath. A good book. And hot coffee with good comfort food with a good movie and napping. Blessings to you and you wonderful channel ❤
I was so excited to see you had posted this! I was hoping for the coffee calendar.😏 I just think it’s wonderful to see you for 12 days you are so soft spoken and kind you make me smile. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and life.
so excited for the next 12 days!!! i always look forward to your vlogs and LOVE that the start of vlogmas was your ideal 24 hours 💓 i feel inspired to make some cinnamon buns and do all the cozy things now haha
A perfect winter day is getting all my running around done on a Friday, and enjoying exactly what you're doing in this video for an entire weekend😁
Good morning Chelsea and happy Sunday. My perfect day is being off from my job and just chilling at home. I try to sleep in a little and drink my coffee looking out at the man made pond in our apartment complex. It sometimes has ducks. I love to look at them 😊.
back in my safe space (your videos and the comment section) this sunday!!!!🎄🎄 and 12 days of vlogmas?! what a TREAT!
This vlog was so cozy, exactly how i'd spend a perfect day off too ❤
love ya see you next time xxxxx
Loving the Christmas vibe. A perfect day for me in winter is the open fire and cool music.
Girl, those carrots 🥕 from the Christmas market. Yummy. Nothing is better than a carrot that has the root on it. ❤ that streak looks amazing.
That part of the video where you talked about making your perfect day by taking things slow enough to enjoy what you’re doing really resonated with me. I’m trying to get to a stage where I can do that more. Right now as I watch this, I was eating my breakfast, sipping on kombucha and drawing. And in my mind I felt like I was rushing myself to do all these things but I’m trying to do them mindfully and really savor these activities instead of checking them off of an arbitrary list
This video was the perfect start to december!! It has very much inspired me to do my own perfect winter day soon 🥰
I love a book haul! Yay bookstores!!!!
Wow Chelsea, I’m glad to hear you talking about slowing the day and fully embracing the moments, just perfect ❤❤❤. Love the markets and the food, all looked fantastic. My perfect day is; up early about 6.30pm and off to a strength training session. Meet friends for breakfast/brunch or high tea. Pottering in my raised garden, talk g on the phone and preparing a delicious dinner. Into the shower at 5pm ish and bed by 9pm ❤❤❤
Chelsie bake them in glass, it's a game changer, glass bakes more evenly and yes its magical. Your welcome. 😋
I’m so happy you are doing vlogmas that makes it fit for you! Since finding your channel shortly after the brunt of Covid I’ve always just connected to your aesthetic… yes babe you are a vibe- believe it! I’m here for your videos regardless of vlogmas, you’re the little sis I always wished I had…. I’m the youngest and my brothers and I have just been disjointed for decades now and definitely miss the feeling of belonging somewhere (within family) and maybe that winter arc theory makes sense and I can find a way to make it work for me. I am excited to be a silent watcher & excited to see what adventures you take on next, keep smashing it doll! 💕
Hi Chelsea, I love your blog channel. You really inspire me to get out and do things on my own and live this crazy messy life to the fullest like no one's watching so thank you for that ❤
James Patterson is gripping, easy reads. He has so much out there, can always find him second hand as well.
The eating the cinnamon roll raw is so real, when those sweet cravings kick in I truly will eat just about anything. Also when my attention span just isn’t doing it for reading, I love an audiobook, I have the Libby app which is through the library so it’s completely free and you can get them through there!!
I think my perfect day is the same.
Oh my gosh Gilmore Girls is my comfort show too. Like a huge hug 😊
This was like a warm hug. Big love from Sydney, Australia ❤
Day 1 of the fundraiser and you already surpassed the goal ❤❤❤
So glad your place of choice for the first vlogmas was Veselka 😊 greetings from Ukraine 💙💛
Hi Chelsea! My perfect day is just getting to go home from work or where ever I'm at. These past three years I have been learning to sit still and just breathe and enjoy my peace. Three years ago I ended a relationship of 16 years full of anxiety and stress!!! And me foolishly tolerating it cause I didn't want to be alone! It hasn't been easy but I love what I have now! Take care!
I love Gilmore Girls and cozy home vibes!! I must have watched it 500 times lol
The perfect day starts with a Chelsea Callahan video, of course! I coud almost smell those cinnamon rolls. Must admit, my reading has exponentially declined now I've discovered TH-cam, but loved The Strand and their book Christmas tree. Looking at all the unhoused books covering my floor ... hmmm.
I love how you edit and I look forward to your uploads. 🫶🏻
Everyone looks so happy and joyful at the Christmas market 🥹
Happy 1st of December and Vlogmas❤️🫶🏾🍀 Thanks for being here, Chelsea!! Much love from Germany.
A perfect day always includes good food, either making it yourself or treating yourself to go out. Being somewhere in the nature would also be a part of a perfect day. Then getting home and have some snacks and watch something nice (like your vlogs).
The book the Assassin’s Blade is so amazing 😍 you will not regret it.
I’ve always been a silent viewer. But its always so nice to step into a bookstore and get books hehehe 😝 you can never have too many books, there’s always “some” time to read - something I keep telling myself but yet adding on to the never ending pile 😂 yay to vlogmas ❤
I'm about to have twelve perfect evenings because of vlogmas ☺️ so excited.
So many scenarios could make a perfect day for me. Ahhh I can’t choose. You’re right it really is about what feeling we’re wanting to get out of thr day plus I love being home alone (even tho I love my husband) sooooo something fun for a couple of hours outside and then uninterrupted time at home for the rest of thr day!
As if NYC couldn't be any dreamier. The winter holidays in the city looks like a beaut.😍
Oh God, Veselka how I miss thee!! Nostalgia galore!! Please go back and steal one of their plates for me. Shhh! ☺️ And then go to Fish’s Eddy (more nostalgia!) and buy a fabulous plate for yourself. And then pack up The Strand and ship the whole damn thing to my house!! Nostalgia on steroids!! No, I’m fine. I’m just a Midwest gal with a New York heart but fortunately I’ve got your vlogs to keep that part of me alive. 🙌 Oh, and it was incredibly challenging for me to get any reading done this year too. But my poor broken brain (menopause + ADHD is no joke, world) is finally getting better. WooHoo! Sorry, I’m oversharing today! Haha! 🤣 Congrats on the new books and the perfect NYC day! Clink, clink! ☕️🗽☕️
I’m so excited you’re doing your December videos again that’s where I became a big fan of your videos!
