Hi Kathryn, I really enjoy your videos thank you!😊 I looked at the reviews for Thredup and they are not very good. Overall they get 3 stars out of 5, which is "Ok" but if you look at the comments people don't like it. One person said she got pennies for items. You said you had a good experience can you give examples here? Please and thank you Jennifer 💐
This was great, I been tryin to find out about "chronic disorganization disorder wikipedia" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Peyackson Illustrious Preeminence - (do a search on google ) ? It is a great one off product for discovering how to get rid of your clutter minus the headache. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my co-worker got amazing success with it.
Love the tip that if you talk about an item in a future tense (ex. "I might", "I may", "one day") and have no plan to actually carry that out it's time to let that item go. Makes perfect sense - and I'm so guilty of that future talk!!
I watch you all of the time, but seldom comment. So today, I want you to know how much I appreciate you, and your videos. You have so many helpful, and motivational tips. Thank you so much!! Many blessings..MaryEllen
I know what you mean. I found her watching a craft video, but her channel is so much more then that. She is still teaching and encouraging and leading by example. The times that she shares her struggles are so meaningful to me! 🥰
I have a ton of clothes that I can no longer wear (50# weight loss). Am donating to a local women's shelter. It warms my heart to know that these items are helping women who are starting over, after experiencing domestic violence.
I love how you pointed out all of the health benefits of decluttering! I definitely feel like I have more time for creativity and self-care with my space is clear. 🙌🏼😊
You masquerade as an organization and frugal living expert, what you really are is a practical life coach and sanity saver. Love your channel! Long time subscriber!
Katherine, I really struggle with depression but I’m a single mom to 3 girls. They are all older but still live with me. I have a 28 yr old, 19 & 17. Can you say hormone Favtory😱! I almost lost my oldest this summer she just couldn’t take the pain anymore. But we’re blessed we found her in time. They all suffer from ptsd. I say all that to tell you thank you for being an example of realness. You’ve shared the laughter, tears, pain & joy. It makes a difference! It gives me hope! Here’s to a happy 2020. Ps- I decluttered our bathroom closet after I watched this. 😃
I’m guilty of all the clutter... I love how you’re so upbeat, so motivated to be a better person, not only do you talk about how to clean but you insert the benefits of organizing, and the importance of self care! This is the one, the one video that has motivated me do BE better, to HAVE goals and visually plan them out. Thank you so much, never change who you are because you’re such a role model, I can have as many goals in life but all I want is to be as happy and content like you are in the future. ❤️
You are my first you tube channel I ever watched (2 years ago now). During that time I was sick now I have overcome Cancer by the grace of God and get to live in an organized cleaner house as I apply your lessons. Keep in mind....I really struggled maintaining the home due to my recent Autism diagnosis:). Your a blessing keep being you-you are enough!!!
Something you said in the first 2 1/2 minutes is really me.. I am living in a house I didn't want and my spaces are too small . Thank you for that! I feel better knowing I am not the only one that thinks that.
This video came out perfect timing. Im about to declutter and deep clean my house for the New Year. Thank you for the motivation and great tips! Happy New Year!!!🎉🎆🎇
I spent the day cleaning out our bedroom closet. It made me feel so good and I felt less stress. Watching your videos definitely inspires me to want to do more!
I woke up today, very depressed going into 2020. Unfortunately my husband lost his battle with cancer last month and watching it has inspired me to make the next year the very best year yet.
@@DoItOnaDime Kathryn your videos the last two month have really help me get through this difficult time. And like Charlie my husband had crohn's disease. And waited too long to have the colon removal surgery and they found his cancer earlier this year on one of his scans. I pray for you all every day that this never has to effect your family like it has ours. Big hugs to you and thank you for being here on social media for me. And I'm a long time subscriber here from the early days of making your homemade Clorox wipes. :) I just love how uplifting and positive you are. Much love to you.
Your humble heart is refreshing and encouraging. You don't pretend that things are perfect and have it all together. That's why I enjoy watching your videos!
The sticky note flag method for your calendar alone was worth watching the video for. I hate cross-outs and scribbles, but not everything I use is dry-erase, so anytime I have to cancel or move something, it bugs me. I will definitely be using this, and will probably use different colors to sort out different types of tasks (work-related, personal productivity, social, etc.). So thanks for sharing that, along with all your other tips. On the topic of decluttering: I can't remember where I heard this, but one person I listened to/read mentioned that every item you own comes inherently comes with a time commitment. You have to take time to decide whether to keep it, take time to figure out where to put it, take time to move it if it's in the way, take time to find it if it's lost amid the other clutter, take the time to clean/care for it - the list goes on. That went a long way towards re-framing how I think about the things I keep. I have to ask myself not only "do I need this?" but "is it worth my time?" So you can add "saved time" to reduced stress and better air quality as benefits of decluttering.
Literally nothing has motivated me this year to declutter the worst room in the house...except this video. Thank you always for the inspiration and motivation!
"All the stuff in the world doesn't look as good as clean and organized". Full stop. WOW. Truth bomb. And ThredUp is a great idea- replacing fast fashion and sale items at Walmart that fall apart quick in the wash with quality items is a goal I've had for a while. I realized today that a lot of my clothes are trash and need new stuff, so I will be using that code for sure. My days of this weekend will be well spent on my vision board and calendar, too. Thanks for all the inspiration!
The Thread Up idea is fantastic! I agree with the fact that decluttering decreases stress and depression, etc. I find that whenever I declutter, I feel much happier and lighter
I wanted to take a minute to thank you, your channel has become my new favorite. I love how genuine, honest and heartfelt your videos are. My 'normal' has been anything but lately and I couldn't have found your channel at a better time. Thank you for being you.
“All the stuff in the world doesn’t mean as much as clean and organized” - THIS is sooo true! Thank you! I started looking at this video and got distracted. Took forever to find it again Lol! Would you happen to have an old video on how you use your planner? If not would you please considering doing one in the future please? I just love your inspiration!
I collect dolls and I have hundreds of them. With all my hobby stuff and all those dolls your videos have really helped me maximize the space I have and how I can utilize everything in the best way possible!
I have been decluttering my sewing room for the last three days. I have gotten rid of so much junk. I am taking a 30 minute break so of course I am watching your video on organizing. I feel motivated already but I need to keep it going. Thanks for all you do!!
It’s so nice to see that you (the most organized person in the world!) have to declutter and organize too! We see you as always having it all together. Makes me feel like I can do it too!!
What I like about you Kathryn, is that you are sweet, genuine and caring. Thank you for your channel. I love the decluttering, designing and DIY's. Can you put any DIY's for refurbishing dressers or anything someone has already but needs a new face?
Oh I love you! I appreciate how you didn't recycle the same organization information and included reasons why it's important to declutter. My family makes fun of me because I get anxious when the house is messy. I have OCD and I have anxiety when things aren't organized. Thank you for validating it has physical benefits.
Thank you for taking a moment to talk about the organized parts of the house that are finally manageable! I get so down when I look at my house as a whole and think I'll never get there. So THANK YOU! I needed to hear that today and I'm sure I wasn't the only one! Happy new year to you and your family!
I have never commented on a video before. However, your videos are motivational for me. I wanted to express appreciation for the time and effort you put into your videos. I enjoy that you discuss the emotional aspects of decluttering. Very helpful!
Oh my! So many great ways to get started today! I can totally relate to stalling out when I get overwhelmed with decluttering. I do feel the best when my spaces are clean and organized. Thank you for the motivation!
Oh my goodness. The encouraging words spoken on this video had me crying! So inspirational! Thank you, you are like my own personal cheerleader..Go Me! I can do this!
I read the comment form Mary Ellen and thought the same,I watch you and never comment. I would like to tell you how much I enjoy watching your videos,always upbeat,great tips on home organizing -and letting us know it's a great feeling!! You also impress me with the piano playing,Spanish speaking,creative touch to so much! You brighten the day !
You are an incredibly beautiful person with a kind hearted soul! God uses you to bless so many people. Thank you for helping me change my life for the better, from one Michigan native to another. I love and adore you.
I don't know how you do it, but I'm feeling motivated 2 minutes in. Usually I have problem with watching whole thing I want to do something so quickly 😁 thank you!! 😊
I like to clean out things every season. That way we find things we do not need and can donate. It also allows me to look over the list of things I need to get for my house. Making list helps me a lot.
Thank you so much for your videos! Yesterday I made two trips to Dollar Tree. I have organized under the kitchen sink, bathroom sink and my awful pantry--that I now really like. What you said resonated with me to change the limiting beliefs that we have about our house. I've decided that this is the house that I am going to stay in and I need to make it my own. Thank you for reinforcing that for me. Now on to my home office--waiting for my Freedom Filer from Amazon.
I just have to tell you, not only do I love your Motivation to clean videos, but I love YOU!! You make me smile every time I watch your videos. Just want to let you know, you touch hearts along with helping us feel better about our Homes. Thank you for sharing your life hacks and Your life with us. :)
I have 3 toddlers and a cluttered home. I cant seem to get ahead of myself and have been filling a pinterest board of minimalism, decluttering and organizing! You have inspired me to get focused!!! ❤❤❤❤
Thanks for the advice. I do have some plans for our apartment that I have had on my mind for a while. I think in 2020 those ideas need to come to life. Thank you for doing videos and encouraging me to do so.
I have already watched this video 4 times now and shared the link with others. You managed to capture precisely the things I have been working on, including a single notebook for my goals/go to info. Thank you for the inspiring and uplifting videos you always create! They make me so happy! 😘
Thank you so much for the inspiration as always. My family and I live in a small space and I have to be mindful of what I bring in and how I set things up. You always have ideas that are just what I need to get started. Thank you 🤗❤
Honestly, your videos feel like they go so fast because I enjoy them so much! I finished this one and was like “that was 8 minutes?!” Thank you for pouring into other families and helping us stay on track. Have a happy new year, Kathryn!
Nice! Thank you I like your tips one thing I learned from living in apartment when you can't have a chalkboard wall/door is: Use clear contact paper available from the Dollar Tree or Walmart and just slap it on your wall, then your wall becomes like a whiteboard. And you can even use different colors for the dry erase markers.
Although I watch, enjoy & gain valuable information & motivation from your channel, I never comment. However, in this New Year, I wanted to say THANK YOU! You truly inspire me!! I agree decluttering has decreased my stress level. Here's to an organized 2020!!!
love your videos. you got me motivated to declutter. I bought LOTS of baskets & bins. I have 2 rooms done so far. love ya. thank you!!! I never would have done it without you!!, truly.
Yes , organizing and decluttering has helped through depression and feel more happy, little by little im getting rid of things I don’t need and it feels good
This is perfect and right on time!! I have spent the entire week de cluttering my entire apt because I felt so depressed coming home to clutter. Now my space is CLEAN, airy and clutter free. I feel fantastic!!
This is the exact kind of positive motivation I need for this year! I’ve already decluttered significantly, but managing what I own seems to always be difficult, especially when it comes to putting things back in their home.
I just wish the Dollar Tree here had the variety and volume that yours does. Ours is so tiny! Kathryn, you truly have inspired me to get motivated and clear stuff out. I may have to look into that journaling and vision board.
There are so many reasons why you are my favorite you tuber, but seriously, THANKS for keeping your videos short and to the point! You even keep my brain decluttered this way! ;)
Love this video Kathryn! I'm working on cleaning with clinical depression. There! I said it!! It's been challenging and I'm trying to remember self love... For sure the mess is stressful and the exhaustion some days make it next to impossible. But your videos with taking small chunks of cleaning and organizing help me stay a bit on task. Thank you for all you do for us on your channel Kathryn! I love your little family and wish you much health and happiness in 2020~ 🎉💖
Lots of New Year goals! Love the idea of a vision board. I live in a small apartment (just my husband, daughter and myself) and sometimes I wish I had a bigger place. But I remind myself that this small apartment (my husband is a live-in superintendent) gave me the ability to quit my job and raise my daughter, homeschool said daughter and now being able to get her through her college years with very little to no debt. And that means EVERYTHING ☺️. Wonderful video - Happy New year to you and your family.
Yay!!! Thank you for sharing. I’m so ready for 2020 and to be more organized which means My mind is less cluttered and I’m less stressed and a lot happier! Wishing you and your family a very blessed and happy New Year!❤️
Decluttering is SO hard for me.... I have a really hard time letting go of anything... even things I KNOW I should... I always fear regretting it. (because I've regretted it many times before). But I know it would improve my life greatly ... if I DID let go, de-clutter, rearrange, and organize.... and in my experience... what you said "the little things make a BIG difference". - is very true.
Thank you for saying that we deserve to feel good about ourselves. I'm working on trying to to feel that mom guilt this year for taking care of myself.
Whenever I see you have a new video, I smile because I know I will not only get the info I need, & also will feel lifted up by your joy. Have a wonderful New Year!
Decluttering may not take long, but with ADHD most things take me longer. This makes inspiration super important for me, it's my key to resilience! Your videos always put a smile on my face and gives me the motivation I need 😁
@@Nan-59 My mother in law and sister have fibromyalgia too, along with chronic back pain from degenerative disc disease. I was just talking to my sister about it, she said its like having a pain "allowance" and you have to choose wisely when you want to spend it
NessaOfDorthonion I also have chronic pain from degenerative disc disease I’ve never heard of calling it a pain allowance I’m going to use that to explain why I can’t do certain things to people
Thank you so much for this video, I feel really inspired. As soon as my holiday guests leave my house I will begin to declutter, sell and donate. Minimalism is my 2020 goal 😃😃💪🏼
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your videos!! I've never left a comment, but I just want to thank you for your GREAT ideas and DIYs!! The way you present your content is wonderful!! Your "to the point" style is wonderful, and you're always "UP" and positive, so that keeps it interesting and fun! Again, thank you and keep 'em coming! May God bless you and your family in the new year and new decade, and wish you an abundance of all things good and blessed! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Happy New Year!! Good timing on this video!! I am aiming for more peace in my life this year and have been watching minimalism videos. I am ready to start living more and taking care of stuff less!! Thanks, as always, for the great inspiration!
I know for me the clutter is overwhelming...glad to hear there is science behind that! Thank you so much for the motivation to make simple changes to make my home a better place ♥️ you are always so inspirational!
Yes thank you! I'm motivated to go clean under my bathroom sinks now which I have not done since the summer. They definitely need it! Love the idea of talking about items in the present. Oh and I love Thred Up! I've used them for a couple years now and love all the pieces I've gotten from them.
Thanks for the inspiration! I tackled my laundry room and pantry today after watching this. I would love if you did a more in-depth video on your common place journal.
Came at a time I needed it. Synchronicity. You're such a joy to watch and how cute is your son! Simple techniques are so helpful. We need these decluttering inspirations like you don't know. Love your channel & you. Have the best NEW YEAR ever. Greetings from Montreal, Canada.
Seriously love you so much! You have motivated me so much you have no idea! As a twin mom anything I can do for myself to help me is awesome so thank you for sharing your tips !!
I thought I was the only one who gets so stressed out when there's clutter/disorder all around me! When I moved out some years ago, I got rid of nearly everything. It was a small studio, so I had to save space. I was SO HAPPY! My mind felt clear because I could see everything I had, all in one glance. No piles/boxes/drawers/cabinets/closets of unknown "stuff" that weighed on the back of my mind! It was glorious. I'd give anything to have that again. Alas, joblessness has me stuck at home. No end in sight.
Gosh my daughter Olivia and I just love ALL your videos! Keep me’ coming, after watching this one, we are off to clean our rooms and get ready for the last day of 2019. She said, your voice even sounds tidy ☺️
Yay! Get 30% off your first thredUP order with the code DIME30: bit.ly/DIME_thredUPDec19
For items thredUP doesn't accept, do they ship it back or donate it elsewhere? Do they take baby clothes/toys as well?
Hi Kathryn, I really enjoy your videos thank you!😊

Old fashioned habits that'll make our lives better in 2020
• Kindness
• Reading books
• Modesty
• Writing letters
• Homemade cooking
• Keeping promises
• Eye contact
• Long walks
• Sharing knowledge
• Listening
• Fixing what was broken
• Face-to-face socialising
Love this. Wish that more face-to-face socialising could have happened in 2020, but at least now we won't take it for granted!! :)
"All the stuff in the world doesn't look as good as clean and organized." Love that

I have 3 toddlers and a cluttered home. I cant seem to get ahead of myself and have been filling a pinterest board of minimalism, decluttering and organizing! You have inspired me to get focused!!! ❤❤❤❤
I have two small kids. It's such a struggle! There is stuff everywhere!
I love watching your videos! Not only it puts me in a good mood, but I start enjoying cleaning and decluttering my place. Love from Canada 🍁
I just love how upbeat you are it makes me happy
Thanks for the advice. I do have some plans for our apartment that I have had on my mind for a while. I think in 2020 those ideas need to come to life. Thank you for doing videos and encouraging me to do so.
Hello my friend
I have already watched this video 4 times now and shared the link with others. You managed to capture precisely the things I have been working on, including a single notebook for my goals/go to info. Thank you for the inspiring and uplifting videos you always create! They make me so happy! 😘
Thank you so much for the inspiration as always. My family and I live in a small space and I have to be mindful of what I bring in and how I set things up. You always have ideas that are just what I need to get started. Thank you 🤗❤
Honestly, your videos feel like they go so fast because I enjoy them so much! I finished this one and was like “that was 8 minutes?!” Thank you for pouring into other families and helping us stay on track. Have a happy new year, Kathryn!
Nice!
Thank you I like your tips one thing I learned from living in apartment when you can't have a chalkboard wall/door is:
Use clear contact paper available from the Dollar Tree or Walmart and just slap it on your wall, then your wall becomes like a whiteboard.
And you can even use different colors for the dry erase markers.
This is a brilliant idea! Thank you for sharing! 😄
Although I watch, enjoy & gain valuable information & motivation from your channel, I never comment. However, in this New Year, I wanted to say THANK YOU! You truly inspire me!! I agree decluttering has decreased my stress level. Here's to an organized 2020!!!
love your videos. you got me motivated to declutter. I bought LOTS of baskets & bins. I have 2 rooms done so far. love ya. thank you!!! I never would have done it without you!!, truly.
Yes , organizing and decluttering has helped through depression and feel more happy, little by little im getting rid of things I don’t need and it feels good
Already started decluttering this weekend. Still have lots to do but feeling so much better about it already! Happy new year's 🎉!
This is perfect and right on time!! I have spent the entire week de cluttering my entire apt because I felt so depressed coming home to clutter. Now my space is CLEAN, airy and clutter free. I feel fantastic!!
This is the exact kind of positive motivation I need for this year! I’ve already decluttered significantly, but managing what I own seems to always be difficult, especially when it comes to putting things back in their home.
Your videos are always the right encouragement at the right time! Happy New Year!
Thank you K.. am hooked on your videos! Ordered the bags for my clothing purge. You are a blessing to so many viewers.
I just wish the Dollar Tree here had the variety and volume that yours does. Ours is so tiny!
Kathryn, you truly have inspired me to get motivated and clear stuff out. I may have to look into that journaling and vision board.
There are so many reasons why you are my favorite you tuber, but seriously, THANKS for keeping your videos short and to the point! You even keep my brain decluttered this way! ;)
Love this video Kathryn! I'm working on cleaning with clinical depression. There! I said it!! It's been challenging and I'm trying to remember self love... For sure the mess is stressful and the exhaustion some days make it next to impossible. But your videos with taking small chunks of cleaning and organizing help me stay a bit on task. Thank you for all you do for us on your channel Kathryn! I love your little family and wish you much health and happiness in 2020~ 🎉💖
I have enjoyed ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS! Pray that you continue them bc they sparkle up my day&adding the children was very special😊
I love when you go into other peoples house and do a project. Also when you do DIY with your bestie
I’m so glad I’m not the only journal addict! 😂
Lots of New Year goals! Love the idea of a vision board. I live in a small apartment (just my husband, daughter and myself) and sometimes I wish I had a bigger place. But I remind myself that this small apartment (my husband is a live-in superintendent) gave me the ability to quit my job and raise my daughter, homeschool said daughter and now being able to get her through her college years with very little to no debt. And that means EVERYTHING ☺️. Wonderful video - Happy New year to you and your family.
Yay!!! Thank you for sharing. I’m so ready for 2020 and to be more organized which means My mind is less cluttered and I’m less stressed and a lot happier! Wishing you and your family a very blessed and happy New Year!❤️
Decluttering is SO hard for me.... I have a really hard time letting go of anything... even things I KNOW I should... I always fear regretting it. (because I've regretted it many times before). But I know it would improve my life greatly ... if I DID let go, de-clutter, rearrange, and organize....
and in my experience... what you said "the little things make a BIG difference". - is very true.
Thank you for saying that we deserve to feel good about ourselves. I'm working on trying to to feel that mom guilt this year for taking care of myself.
Great ideas. I agree getting organized is a massive stress reliever.
3:56 your kitchen in white looks so much better than in brown. congratulations
I love your videos. You are inspirational and always kind ❤️ you make cleaning doable
Happy New Year! It warms my heart to watch your channel. You are wonderful.
Whenever I see you have a new video, I smile because I know I will not only get the info I need, & also will feel lifted up by your joy. Have a wonderful New Year!
I can see how your videos getting better from year to year. You are brilliant and lovely soul. Great wishes for 2020.
Decluttering may not take long, but with ADHD most things take me longer. This makes inspiration super important for me, it's my key to resilience! Your videos always put a smile on my face and gives me the motivation I need 😁
To NessaOfDorthonion I understand!! Everything takes me longer, too. I have fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, chronic pö
@@Nan-59 My mother in law and sister have fibromyalgia too, along with chronic back pain from degenerative disc disease. I was just talking to my sister about it, she said its like having a pain "allowance" and you have to choose wisely when you want to spend it
NessaOfDorthonion I also have chronic pain from degenerative disc disease I’ve never heard of calling it a pain allowance I’m going to use that to explain why I can’t do certain things to people
Have you read organizing solutions for people with adhd by Susan Pinsky?
Nan Branham me too. I have had several medical procedures and another surgery. But not giving up.
Thank you so much for this video, I feel really inspired. As soon as my holiday guests leave my house I will begin to declutter, sell and donate. Minimalism is my 2020 goal 😃😃💪🏼
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your videos!! I've never left a comment, but I just want to thank you for your GREAT ideas and DIYs!! The way you present your content is wonderful!! Your "to the point" style is wonderful, and you're always "UP" and positive, so that keeps it interesting and fun! Again, thank you and keep 'em coming! May God bless you and your family in the new year and new decade, and wish you an abundance of all things good and blessed! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
I have really high anxiety.... this will help me..actually all your videos help me..
Happy New Year!! Good timing on this video!! I am aiming for more peace in my life this year and have been watching minimalism videos. I am ready to start living more and taking care of stuff less!! Thanks, as always, for the great inspiration!
Your Michigan buffalo plaid shirt made me squeal with excitement! Love it and love Michigan!
Happy New Year!
2020 = Vision

I know for me the clutter is overwhelming...glad to hear there is science behind that! Thank you so much for the motivation to make simple changes to make my home a better place ♥️ you are always so inspirational!
You always do a lovely job and your work is inspiring and practical. And your boys are so precious!
Yes thank you! I'm motivated to go clean under my bathroom sinks now which I have not done since the summer. They definitely need it! Love the idea of talking about items in the present. Oh and I love Thred Up! I've used them for a couple years now and love all the pieces I've gotten from them.
Thanks for the inspiration! I tackled my laundry room and pantry today after watching this. I would love if you did a more in-depth video on your common place journal.
1:03 use the calendar on your iphone girl! your planner will always be with you, and you will have a back up in the cloud!
Thank you for always bringing such light to TH-cam. I have implemented so many of your tips into my life. You are such an inspiration.
Came at a time I needed it. Synchronicity. You're such a joy to watch and how cute is your son! Simple techniques are so helpful. We need these decluttering inspirations like you don't know. Love your channel & you. Have the best NEW YEAR ever. Greetings from Montreal, Canada.
Seriously love you so much! You have motivated me so much you have no idea! As a twin mom anything I can do for myself to help me is awesome so thank you for sharing your tips !!
I thought I was the only one who gets so stressed out when there's clutter/disorder all around me! When I moved out some years ago, I got rid of nearly everything. It was a small studio, so I had to save space. I was SO HAPPY! My mind felt clear because I could see everything I had, all in one glance. No piles/boxes/drawers/cabinets/closets of unknown "stuff" that weighed on the back of my mind! It was glorious. I'd give anything to have that again. Alas, joblessness has me stuck at home. No end in sight.
Gosh my daughter Olivia and I just love ALL your videos! Keep me’ coming, after watching this one, we are off to clean our rooms and get ready for the last day of 2019. She said, your voice even sounds tidy ☺️
Happy New year !!! 2020!! Perfect timing !! Thank you 😊
