    Dear Benita, several month ago my husband of many years passed away. Still in shock, I am trying to start minimazing and getting rid of those countless posessions nobody needs or wants. It is exremally difficult task…thanks to you , your calm and friendly vocal leading through part of your peaceful life, I am getting better, so thank you from the bottom of my heart. Keep up your very helping work.💖

    I was curious to see your laundry routine. Now I know why you love the laundry in the basement. You can wash all your clothes at the same time and then also dry them afterwards, in one go. That’s very practical. You can’t go wrong with a cleaning video, we all seem to love them! Thanks. ❤️

    Hello from Texas! I enjoy your videos and appreciate all the work that goes into it. Recently I had to hire a cleaning company due to my own health issues plus I am a full time caregiver to my husband who has dementia. After 9 years of caregiving I will enjoy three weeks of respite care and will see my family in Europe. The highlight for me will be a 3 day stay in Stockholm starting August 13th. A dream come true. Thank you for all the ideas on what to do in Stockholm. I hope they offer shipping to the US! Thanks to you I have a long list lol. Please keep posting your videos. I use them as an escape when times get tough. All my best!

    Cleaning routine 🤣oh well, I have more routine than I think I have. It stormed here, and the cats came inside with paws full of mud. Cleaning my floor it is. I have solar power, so wash and dry it when it is sunny, and put it away the same moment it is dry and folded. I don't like a dirty kitchen, etc, etc. I must admit my routine is made by my schedule, cats, nature, and life. 😻 thanks for the video.

    Thank you Benita for creating what I know will be a video I rewatch to get myself in the mood to clean. Love the Cody Francis music which I discovered on your channel as you have used him before. I will often put on the same music as you just to keep myself going in cleaning mode! I recently went through my apartment and did a nice decluttering/cleaning which was great (due to company coming of course). I love it but the hard part for me is keeping it clean and organized. I get a lot done waiting for the water to boil or for something to come out of the microwave -- that's a big part of my strategy. I've been watching your videos for years and have to chuckle at how many I've been inspired by, and have found within them items that I've purchased that I love. It's wonderful indeed to find joy like this in life's simple things.🤩

    Hello Benita! 😃 It has been a very hot and humid summer - my plants are loving it! ❤ I give them their evening shower and they are so beautiful right now. I have a scheduled laundry day, but I actually would not mind having to do my laundry outside of the home - having my washer/dryer makes extra laundry during the week. I typically am doing the laundry on Saturdays, but I do some 'mini' loads during the week. Saturdays is a general day for cleaning and tidying up - then having my Sunday to rest or do other things feels good. I do make a list for cleaning because I like to tackle the big jobs in 'chunks' - I am someone who really enjoys cleaning. Thank you for another video - enjoyed this very much! Have a great week! 🌸💮🌸

    Well, I try to get my washing dried outside, so the routine there is checking the weather app 😂. I borrowed the "little and often" spot clean from an earlier cleaning inspo from you 🥰. I aim to vacuum and surface clean upstairs on one day, downstairs another. It's all about the consistency, people! What ever works in my book, as long as the end result feels good and makes you 😊 🌼

    Dear Benita! Thank you for sharing your cleaning and washing routine! That’s makes total sense to me☺️I have a weekly room routine, like you described it in your video, on mondays I always do extraordinary tasks, for example cleaning the laundry room etc…. It helps me to stay focused and calms me down…Inwish you a good week full of nice experiences and by the way I do use the same Dyson and I love it, we have a lot of staircases in our house and as the V12 is not heavy it’s a huge help! So cheers! 👋🫶☺️🌸

    I love how clean and minimal your place is. While others say mine is empty I often feel like there is still too much going on. I recently moved into a much smaller space so I'm still figuring out how much colour, plants and pictures on to wallls it can take. I think it's the orangy-parkett flooring that kinda makes my living room too busy. I do have a tan/camel leather couch that I got in 2018 and that I love but this and the floor is a bit too warm for my taste. I do my washing once a week as well and I usually have 1-2 loads. 1 clothing (always), 1 bedding anf towels (every other week) and one darks that need to washed at 60 degrees like undies, socks and cleaning rags (every other week). I hangdry most of my stuff except for towels. I tidy and clean as I go. Especially the kitchen needs it like twice a day 😅

    Lovely, inspiring and simple.
    I have never had a washing machine. When I recently built a small home just for me there is a space for a stackable washer .. but no. I use the space for the cat box!😂😍
    I love the laundromat..every 2 weeks I do 2-3 loads all at one time.. dry all at same time.. so in the time one load would be finished at home, I’ve done multiple. Fold up and done! .. no daily torture. Plus, while things are going thru the cycles, I read, get a snack near by or just take a walk around the block.
    I wear mostly black clothes (my preferred..or gray). I like to hand wash black. It stay’s perfect and my items last forever with the color intact. I just hand wash an item when I take it off and hang to dry in the shower.
    I watch these videos of women always complaining about laundry and never had an issue. With 2 small kids, I made it a part of our week. Seems like a washer in the home just causes problems!😂

    • @Barb6106
      @Barb6106 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@jeanetteh.9240 interesting.. and I might do that IF I wanted a washer. But, I live alone, do a lot of my clothes by hand to preserve the color (o wear mostly black), and enjoy the time out doing this small chore. On the property my home is on, we ( my daughters and family live near me)
      have well water and with the drought issues I also don’t want to put an additional strain on the system.
      I know people who have the convenience of a washer can’t understand my enjoyment of the laundromat experience, but the few dollars I spend are well worth it for ME. And, since I was 19, I have not known any other way, raising 2 kids and all-snd judging from the videos I watch of women with families CONSTANTLY frustrated with laundry, I consider myself lucky because I have never felt bad about this job! (I’m 76 now, so I got this!😂)
      And my little treats make the day special.

    As a single person how often do you use your dishwasher? Do you run it half full? If you wait until you accumulate enough to run a full load, how do you manage the dirty/ possibly smelly dishes waiting in the dishwasher to be washed?

    I deep vacuum once a week and the rest of the week I vacuum with the robot vacuum for maintenance. The day I deep vacuum I dust and wipe down surfaces and mirrors. I wash my clothes in the weekday and my linens and towels on the weekend. The days I do laundry I clean my bathroom and do some personal grooming that takes longer, like exfoliation and shaving, face masks and deep conditioners. So basically I only clean twice a week and only for as long as it takes to do laundry. The laundry is my timer.

    It's absolutely essential to clean for guests. Tidy and dust the guest room and guest bath (or the apt bathroom) and I like to add a little guest basket for them. Nothing too fancy but things we tend to forget at home like a toothbrush, some deodorant, a tooth mug, mouth wash, tissues, charger for phones, tiny shower gel and shampoo, a bottle of water and of course fresh towels. I have a washing machine in the apartment and a communal dryer in our apartment complex that comes in handy when washing big things that need to be fluffed up like down beds or down winter jackets.
