Cleaning motivation! Resetting the house for Easter

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 เม.ย. 2023
- My house was starting to get on top of me again so I thought I’d try and get on top of it so I didn’t have to think about it over Easter. I hope you enjoy. Also, sorry for anyone who’s already watched this on my other platforms, gotta repurpose it as it makes less work for me overall! 🐣
You shouldn’t have to justify things as you go along, the beauty of your videos is that they are realistic and honest That makes people feel so much better ❤
Thank you ❤️
Exactly please don't I love ur videos
❤.totally agreed
I absolutely adore and appreciate your content. Please don’t let some make you feel as is you have to justify. You’re wonderful!
Не надо засираться. Надо во время уборку делать, а не копить кучи неубранного
Hi Remi...I am 71 and I think you are doing a WONDERFUL job, taking care of your home, yourself, your babies. The time goes by so fast, and they grow up. I love housework, but with 2 children, years ago, who were 13 months apart, I never had time for cleaning, etc. Now I have more time than I know what to do with. I love love love your channel. You just be you, and do the best you can. Love you and take care! Jeanie from Florida. Watching your channel is very therapeutic!
This was so lovely to read! Thank you! ☺️
All mums can relate to that. It is really sad that we worried so much about tidy houses, work, all the other things that took us away fom our babies. We would love to have even five minutes with our babies again....Hopefully our love kept them close to us and we now rely on them for help and comfort (I know I do!).
I've just found you and you have motivated me. I'm 69 with a 40 yr old daughter and a 10 year old grandson who has autism and ADHD. My daughter was diagnosed with ADHD when she was 14 yrs old and struggled throughout her school years and beyond. She's married now and home schools her son bc he's had a tough time in main stream school. He's a handful but quite high functioning in some aspects. I could go on forever talking about me and my family. I am really impressed with your channel. You remind me so much of my daughter. You have a special way of speaking which is very engaging for me. I can only say that I hope your wishes come true and keep going with your TH-cam channel bc I know you do help ppl and that includes me. I can't do a lot these days and as I used to get very house proud it's a kick in the teeth. Oh, I forgot to say I was born in Birmingham and emigrated with my then husband in the late 70's. I live in Perth Western Australia and after all those years this is my home. I still have 2 brothers in Brum. I am so glad I found you and just know you are very good on your channel especially your speaking. I don't expect a reply but I hope my comment finds you and your family well. Kind regards, Linda (or as everyone here calls me, Nanny) that includes my daughter and son in law, extended family and friends. Take care my dear.
A rule my mother had which I have reinstated for myself is no eating or drinking in the bedroom, except for water and tea. It's helped me a lot. 😊
Precious woman, these are your busiest days having little kids. I LOVE how you are with your kids!
Please do not feel the need to justify yourself. You are helping soooo many people and that is a good thing. Ignore the haters. You are an inspiration to many. A mixture of long and short vids suits me. ❤
Breastmilk is a great cure for pink-eye.
A busy, full time employed mom, who spends quality time with her kids, works opposite shifts with her partner, has no dryer or dishwasher, lives in a smaller house with limited storage - is never going to have time for a perfect house! But you sure can clean :)
I used to be VERY messy, but I learned, and part of it was forming new habits, and part of it was learning not to be a perfectionist.
You'll laugh, but my indoor /leash cat sits on the mat when he comes in wet or dirty to get toweled and have his feet wiped!
Hilarious to watch you make the bed and fold the clothes around the baby. Such a good little sleeper.
My favourite sheets are either white so I can bleach them, or burgundy so the stains don't show ;)
Love the video.
I love the understanding you have. The way you reframe a strangers comment about what is actually true. My home gets messy so quickly as well. I'll clean and it's amazing! But I also want my child to enjoy her toys , have room to grow and enjoy her belongings by laying them out on the living room floor. Then it's messy all over again. These are temporary memory's, before we know it, our dear children will be grown and we'll be by ourselves again, no mess but our own to clean up.
So I've had this friend who I always thought she had a spotless house, and I was embarrassed anytime she was at my house. This past weekend, we stayed at her house for the first time.
Turns out she is human too and has dust and dirt in similar places to me. I learned not to be so hard on myself. Your videos help too, thank you
Progress not perfection. I like that
I remember wash days when it rained and rained, when the washing line broke and the wet sheets fell in the mud, My Mum used to sit and cry.
I hope people understand that this young lady has to have many clothes around becaus she has no electric dryer.
To cut costs in France I have washing lines in the cellar where I hang laundry to dry off a bit before using the dryer, but at least I do have a dryer , thank goodness. They are not common in England because of the cost of electricity and lack of space.
Remi does have a washer which is a godsend with kids, but work is terribly hard without all the wonderful labour saving things American houses have.
I have just bought a "*issel steam mop which cleans and sterilises..a big improvement on the bucket and mop ! I wish that Remi could get one too!
❤️❤️❤️
Oh what a lovely comment!
Here in nz ,dishwashers and dryers aren't in every home and I know the struggles remi faces,but she's so beautifully greatful and positive ❤
I hope your channel grows 100 times bigger! You are fab!
Oh how lovely are you! Thank you so much ☺️ x
You are such a blessing to me and such an answer to prayer. I didn't know anyone else like me. Thank you! Thank you!! Thank you!!!😊
New subscriber here.
I totally get what you mean by your dog just flying into the house. My three do the same and though the little fella is alright, his bigger and much younger brother and sister make a total mess. They ran into the kitchen, do few laps around it, shake themselves off and only then sit down to have their paws done. Since I live in the countryside you can imagine the mess they create 😁
Girl I found your account yesterday and all I can say is wow! You are just the most amazing person ! Honestly tho you work you have 2 kids and you find the time to tidy all the mess after being exhausted probably, I'm a mum of two aswell mine are the same ages as both your kids and it's so hard to keep ontop of the mess especially after a long day where I'm exhausted after getting everyone in bed, I'm so proud of you for coming so far in your journey!! No matter what you post I'll watch it either way cheers to you girl ! ❤❤
👍👍👍👍👍👍 I like both the short and long videos. But, if I really had to pick, then it would be the longer ones I prefer.
Nobody has it all together all the time. I refuse to believe there are people that are on top of things 24/7
Girl, you motivate me to GO clean and declutter. ❤️
I love the long videos thank you
I salute you for realizing that the more wound up a little one gets, the longer it takes him to calm down. Incredibly, some parents never get this. 🙄
Longer vids! Just found you. Thanks! You are on my computer as I organize my horrific home office (garbage room) Love your channel. Love your honesty. Thats rare on social media.
I know, I clean alongside of her! and I need the long video!
When I watch your videos I am taken right back to when my two were little. I wish I had had your videos then! You are doing so great and it really will get easier. ❤
Myself…I enjoy either 💕funny how easy it seems to be ….to criticize people on utube who put themselves out there, like you do with your videos. God bless you. I always heard it said walk a mile in the persons shoes before you judge…keep up the good work❤
Long ones for me, but happy with whatever you've got time for. Loving your channel. You deserve the growth that is happening I hope you're getting paid now by YT.
LOVE white bed sheets cuz they're the only one's I can bleach! lol. also, we keep a wicker basket at the bottom of our stairs. If something goes up, put it in the basket. Then one child each has the responsibility of carrying up the basket at the end of each day, and leaving the cleaned basket at the top of the stairs to be carried back down in the morning.
"don't put it down, put it where it belongs"--what I say to myself when holding something
and Im about to put it down somewhere
It’s a great mantra! X
Love the long videos. I think they relate to more people, i know they do to me😅
I love the long videos I hope they aren’t so much more trouble for you. Don’t worry too much about the voice overs. We love whatever you say and you don’t have to find words for the whole length of time. ♡
I like the longer videos but also enjoy the short ones. It is just so nice to see someone who is so honest about cleaning. It is an ongoing process and at times it makes me wonder how it got so messy…didn’t I just tidy up that room?! Keep the videos coming!❤❤❤
Love all your content but the longer ones are my favourite ❤️
Love long and short vids. Just keep them coming 😊❤xxx
Both size of video. You do a wonderful job
I really like the way you do things. I'd like to say my house isn't messy but it is, mostly my 2 kids mess. I understand it's not easy to keep clean. Your videos make me realize I'm not alone in this mess.
Love you videos, the voice overs are so interesting. You are an excellent cleaner, I’m hooked on your videos. ❤
Love both lengths of videos! I find them refreshingly honest and motivating. Your baby is beautiful too!
I love how you are talking through your videos! It's helped me realize I'm not the only one thinking the same way. So, the haters can just stick it up their bums 😊
I love ur videos however u want to talk or say...u do u. I love them!
Love whatever content you want to provide! You have such a great narration - funny, wise, self-effacing, supportive, cheerful, clever. And, whats more delightful than clean sheets, dried on the line?! I love hanging out wash 😊
I like the long ones!!!
I’d listen to you for 60 seconds or 2 hours+ - what ever you are able to do.
I love both forms of videos! Long and short. More content up overall is always best hah
I love the long and short ones! You motivate me with each one!!
Love to hear this!! So pleased they’re motivating ☺️ thank you x
I’m hoping you have access to comments made from previous posts but I think you’re awesome! Between videos, I’m doing different things around my house because you’ve motivated me! Thank you!
Just found your account, and you are so relatable! Yes, my house is constantly a disaster! Yes, my 1yo does gymnastics while nursing! Yes, I feel your anxiety and frustrations! Greetings from NC, USA!
I loooove thé long videos 😍 i just love sitting down in the evening with a cuppa watching your videos the longer the better heheh!! But love both so much!!!
Oh bless you! Thank you so much! 🥰
So sweet he’s helping. I need help too. What a sweet child. Just like Mom. You seem so sweet too.
You and your auntie have the same sink where the drainer is one piece with the sink. I love that. I’ve never seen it before
Long videos! Thanks!❤
We are having a lot of high temperatures with very little rain. Our lawn is all dead. My house was like yours when I was raising my daughter and working full time. When she moved out, I was able to keep the house looking half way descent, but I am still a visual person and need all my stuff where I can see it.
I love the long video.
Remi, keep being PROUD OF YOURSELF! You have earned it!!
Long or short, I like all of your videos.
I have to admit I absolutely love your videos ❤ they have really helped me give myself the kick up the butt I needed so badly! The “15 mins per room” rule you have used in the past vids I have adopted and it’s truly helped me manage to get my house under control again. Keep being you love, you’re awesome! Xxx
Thank you so so much! I love that the timer thing is working for you! ☺️❤️
@@remiclog can I just ask what is it you sprinkle on your rugs before hoovering? Your rugs look brand new once you’re done and I’d like to try what you do please xxx
Your place looks wonderful even when messy!means u are blessed to have a family!!
I loooove the long ones - Soooooo motivating :)
This mom hurt her back, not moving around the greatest these day's. Can't be sick or hurt for 1 day and my house is a wreck. Someday these kid's will be grown and gone and i won't have their messes, so for now I take deep breaths and enjoy my time with them. I use to be a clean freak and it came with a very ornery mom. I find now that when i start deep cleaning, that my mood changes from good to bad almost instantly. Working together as a family getting things done does keep me happier, but if not, then I just do the mandatory things and stay happy because that's the kind of mom i want my kid's to know. ❤
Rewatching u again ❤🎉
Looove the longer videos esp for the weekend when I clean lol the shorts are handy for in the week. Also love the chatting through, feels like I'm not cleaning alone😅
I think ur great and hve pulled me out a rut thank u
This was massively motivating for me, thank you! And thank you for your honesty and for sharing how you told yourself you loved the mess and chaos. That was such an eye opener for me and who I am and what I want as a mom during a difficult season of motherhood. And you are so sweet and funny, and your videos are such a joy! While it was your longer video that brought me to your channel (How to clean when you're overwhelmed), I do enjoy the 60 second motivators as well. Mostly, whether it is in 60 seconds or 20 minutes, it is your honesty, sense of humor, and dedication that are the biggest help for me. Thank you so much!
I literally just found you half an hour ago, you’re an absolute breath of fresh air. Unfortunately you’ll always get criticisms & the nay sayers on social media, but for the love of god don’t listen to them. I don’t trust anyone with a show home 24/7 when they have kids & / or animals, completely impossible! A house is meant to be lived in. Juggling work, kids, day to day living, cleaning, illnesses.. it’s rough! You’re doing amazingly Remi & don’t let anyone tell you any different. Your boys are gorgeous too 🥰
Sending lots of love & blessings xx
What an absolutely lovely comment to find after a pretty bad morning. Thank you so so much 🥰 ❤️ x
@@remiclog Oh bless your heart 💗 Nothing like a reminder of what a great job you’re doing when things have been rough, & I only ever leave comments I genuinely mean, unfortunately I inherited my mums straight talking 😂 I hope your day has improved, & if it hasn’t, slob out on the sofa tonight with a ruddy big choccie bar, tomorrow is a new day 💗 xxx
Remi i like the long ones😊
Me 2 !! ❤
Progress, not perfection! Also, it's must be nice to be someone who doesn't have these sorts of struggles. I can't even imagine! 😄
I like both long and short (longer is my favorite) but as you say you got to do what’s best for you so if short videos are what’s best for you then go for it!
I like all the videos long or short! Your house is a home! So cozy!🎉
I prefer longer videos but i appreciate whatever u post
I’m cleaning with you today. I love both short and long videos. Keep up the great work!!!!
Love to hear this! Thank you 😊
Thank you for existing and uploading!! I can see myself on your videos, I’ve had always the “need” to do the same (TH-cam) and sharing that we are not alone, but I’m scared… but at least now my kitchen counters are clean and my dining table (we only have one) is clean too just because I watched you. Thank you!
Those might be the most beautiful stairs I have ever seen in my life.
Your videos are so satisfying
Remi - your TH-cam channel is wonderful! Thanks for your great content!!
I have three dogs and no way am I wiping their paws every time they come in from being outside. So help me that would like 8 -10 times a day! Only sociopaths wipe their dog’s paws. 😂
Also, I have adhd and dysthymia and I completely get how people just can’t keep up because they do not have the energy. One thing I have found that saves me is minimalism. Only having what I absolutely need and not having extra things cluttering up my surfaces and hidden areas really keeps my brain as empty as possible. Did you know that clutter causes a constant state of low level anxiety? Like a low hum in the back of your mind whether you acknowledge it or not?
Having less makes cleaning faster and easier because you can skip the whole tidying part! Of course, this is coming from someone who does not have children.
Also, Remi, have you thought about trying a bin or two on the stairs and running them upstairs if you happen to go up there during the day or nightly? Less trips and hopefully less hazardous? I used to follow a mom that used wash baskets like that around the home and then put away the stuff nightly.
Anyway, I love your videos and never apologize for the way you are. You’ll never please everyone, but you will find your people by staying true to yourself and authentic.
- newly subscribed! ❤
I love your comment Lindsey, maybe I need a basket in my living room for my child's toy collection. Quick nightly reset
So tired of the perfect Instagram ready channels. What you do is authentic and you’re chatting is lovely. Still think you need a dishwasher though 😊
Dishwasher is not a maid. You have to scrape, rinse, load, remember to turn it on, then unload. For me, I prefer to clean up as I cook and just wash by hand. No waiting for clean dishes, no melted plastic, no baked on crud the dishwasher missed, no broken glasses, etc.
@@serenakoleno9338 everyone is different..I have three kids and a hungry husband. I don’t scrape or rinse plates . Just clean the filter out from time to time. It saves me more time than the vacuum cleaner which I use less often.
All lengths are great!
Personally, I like the longer videos!
I love the shorts AND the longer videos lol
Thank you so much! 😁 Pleased to hear it!
Ощущение ,что целый месяцами не убираются ,а сейчас решили показать, какая она чистоплотная😂
Love the longer videos. Please keep chatting all the way through, love hearing about what you're doing and how your day is going. I use the term 'reset" too. :))
Both, Remi. I like them both❤❤❤
New to your channel an I feel so much better to see that Its not only me with a messy home every single day ni matter how much i clean
As to how it feels to have clear stairs....
Absolutely No frigging idea! I thought they were a storage area 🤔 😂 Hx
I figure which ever posts you have time for makes me happy. I just want you to know you're not the only one. I have same problems
You are amazing such enthusiasm for something you don’t find easy ten out of ten you can accomplish anything without energy and enthusiasm welldone
May I suggest you ring out your mop really well, which makes for a floor that will dry in no time. Be sure to keep all doors and windows open so as to let the air in to help dry faster.
Please be careful about straining your body (on your hands and knees for example) because you will feel the pain in years to come. It’s not worth it. And don’t worry, as a 50 year old with ADHD, please know that I’ve been there too (messy room and all).
Just being conscientious about making an effort is enough. It does get easier with age, as you find more strategies for time management, and executive function. The magical thinking is diminished and you tend to be more realistic in goal setting.
Your channel is the best!
I didn't think about it until listening and reevaluating my lifestyle.
Cleaning really is my hobby and laundry, too. My child told me one day, laundry, was my hobby. I felt odd and bit boring.
They only meant to say I'm good at it.
I love the longer videos
My boyfriend never throws his clothes into the laundry basket and he's 66!
Lol😅
I love the longer ones! I put them on to motivate me! I had a shower and deep cleaned the bathroom at the same time! 🩵
I may be old enough to be your mom, but we could have been identical twins. You are me!!!!!! 😂
I love the long videos
Both length videos are great
Love your video's. I love long ones. This is perfect but I could definitely watch more of them ❤xx
Ahh thank you so much ☺️ xx
I solved the problem with stairs. 😉😉 I don’t have any!!!
Lol 😆
Longer videos!!! ❤
I loved another vid and couldn’t find it or you again. But now I have. And subscribed. I am enjoying the comments on how your life and family and house are doing. Carry on! And keep on!
Do y’all have swiffers in the UK? The sweepers and the dusters make weekly dusting and sweeping, mopping so much easier..I cleaned houses for years and had my own business. I’m not able to do it anymore so I love watching your videos they definitely give me motivation..🇺🇸😀
No judging at all, I can give you an advice is whenever you’re picking up stuff around the house, grab a laundry basket with you from room to room and pickup what doesn’t belong there and take it with you to the next room, that will save you a lot of going back and forth, especially with the stairs, you can pick everything up in one go. I hope that helps.
Love your videos long or short so real only came across one of your shorts the other day now I've watch all of them looking forward to more
Thank you so much! I’m so pleased you’re enjoying them! ☺️
I am exactly the same type.
Me too 🤷♀️
I love your videos any length.😊
