 Well, hello everybody and welcome back to my regular Monday video. This is the plan with me. Today we're working on Monday, November 7th through a Sunday, November 15th. Let's look back at last week as normal, or as usual I should say, whatever. This week, Monday was the 31st, which was Halloween, so I did kind of more of a Halloween-y kind of a theme. So yeah, this is kind of how my week turned out. My mom was in town and she is now back in Florida. I've had a few fun things happen this week besides my mom being in town. I actually hit 4,000 subscribers here on YouTube on Tuesday. Like, that's insane, you guys. Like, thank you so much for all the internet love. And if this is your first time here, make sure to subscribe so you don't miss anything. But yeah, it's kind of crazy to think that I didn't think when I first started this channel that really anyone would want to watch. I mean, I don't know. It was just kind of one of those things where I wanted to put myself out there. I wanted to share, and if someone liked my stuff, that was cool. Like, maybe I thought like 50 people would watch. But yeah, you guys are like totally rocking it, and thank you guys so much for wanting to see what I'm up to every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. So yeah, I had a lot of good things happen this week with that. And then I had dinner with a family member on Wednesday, more dinner with family on Thursday. And then my mom and I had a lovely, lovely dragon house on Friday, which was a delish. And then, um, yeah, so that is it for this week. Let's go back and talk about this upcoming week. So let's get into the plan with me. It is election week. I'm not even going to want to talk about that. But anyway, it's also Veterans Day on Friday. So I figured I would, I don't need this anymore either, trying to like pull things off that I don't need. I figured I would use these military strips. And I actually got these from Chrissy and Designs quite a long time ago. I'm pretty sure she still has them in her shop. I will leave the links down below for you guys too. But I figured since it is Veterans Day on Friday, and the election, that I would put these in. Because I never really get to use them, so yeah, I just don't know. Yeah, they're like not long enough, but that's okay. That's fine. These are actually meant to be used in the vertical, not in the hourly. So it gets kind of, it gets kind of dicey. Yeah, like it gets a little, like it's a little short, whatever. I don't even care. Okay. Um, all right, so let me put in, so my plan with me is going here. I literally don't even know what I'm going to do on Wednesday. And I'm pretty sure the Friday video will still be the October photo page for the Polaride zip. Um, I got to fill that right after this. So let's put in the work. And I'm pretty sure that I need a little ruler to cut my washi. Got the ruler. And actually, let me zoom you guys in a little bit. I feel like you're really, really far away today. Here we go. A little, a little up close and personal. Um, yeah, so I decided to go with these two washes. This is just like a red and blue chevron. And then this, you'll be able to see it better when it's on the paper, but it's just a silver foil. I don't know because obviously this is like rounds and greens and blacks. But since it's the election, I figured let's just, let's just go crazy. The election's crazy anyway. Let's just keep it crazy, right? Okay, so I work from seven to three. And I'm pretty sure I'm working from seven to three every day. I don't think I have any weird days this week. Sometimes I'll have a funny day if I've got to leave early or whatever. Oh, speaking of weird things. Okay, I put this in here so I could talk to you guys while I was doing this. It's always nice to have kind of like a little bit of a topic of conversation, even though I'm literally sitting here, rolling out washi and talking to a black box that's recording. But I were. So I wanted to talk to you guys. I did post on my Instagram. My Instagram link will be below. It's just favorite daughter Emily on Instagram. However, I have a question for you all. Would you be interested in doing me doing Vlogmas? Okay, so Vlogmas would be vlogging every day in the month of December. This would not hinder the Monday, Wednesday, Friday videos. Those will still go up as scheduled at 9 a.m. Central St... Is it 9 a.m.? Yeah, 9 a.m. Central Standard Time. It won't hinder the Monday, Wednesday, Friday videos. Those will still be going up. So my question to you all is if I did Vlogmas, would you be interested in watching? The reason that I ask is because historically my vlogs have probably been the least viewed out of all of my videos. Not knocking it, but I'm just saying. I just want to make sure that if I'm going to do it that, you know, the people that watch will respond, I guess. So I don't know. I mean, it's a big undertaking just because I work full time. And I also, you know, film at least three videos a week, sometimes more. And then, you know, all the editing and uploading. I don't know what my upload schedule would be for the vlogs. I can guarantee that it will not be just one video a week. If anything, it would be like either it's going to be every day. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, uploading, but just at different times of the day. Or it's going to be on my off days. So essentially you'd get a video for me every day, if that makes sense. The videos will probably not be that long. I'll tell you that just because I'm working from seven to three and I can't really film too much while I'm at work. So really it'd be early in the morning to this little chunk in the evening is what you're going to see. So I, you know, I think that the actual vlog, I mean, I don't know how long it will be. You know, I usually have a kind of a guesstimate of how long videos will last. But I'm thinking that, you know, it would probably be anywhere from maybe like five to 12 minutes long. I don't think that it would be like an incredibly long video. I mean, I'm just trying to be honest here. And now I've realized that I need a scissors. So I'll be right back. Got my scissors. Okay. So what was I talking about? Oh vlogmas, right. So yeah, I mean, I don't know. I'm toying with the idea of doing it. Everyone that I talked to on Instagram or left me comments. Everyone said positive things that they wanted to see vlogmas from me. So yeah, I passed here, but then I never ended up doing it obviously. But I always feel like I love watching blogs. I love watching vlogmas for some people. And it's like, I don't know. I feel like I maybe want to try it and see if I like it and you guys respond to it. I don't, I don't know. I mean, I'm kind of torn as to what I want to do. But I really want to get your feedback. Positive, negative, neutral, whatever. I don't know. I just want to know what my audience thinks because obviously I don't want to do it if you guys don't want to, don't want to watch. I mean, and I know that sounds really stupid and I'm sorry. I mean, obviously I can put videos up of whatever, whatever. But I mean, I value your guys's opinion and you know, I make these videos for me, but I also make them for you. So I want to make sure that, you know, I'm staying true to what my audience wants to watch. So that being said, let me know in the comments. Like I said, the only issue that I think one person had sent me a message and was asking about the Monday, Wednesday, Friday videos, if those would go away in lieu of Vlogmas. And I said, no, those would, those would remain the same. So they were like, oh yeah, yeah. As long as the Monday, Wednesday, Fridays are there, I would still watch Vlogmas. I'm like, okay, cool. So I don't know. I mean, I don't know. I'm like at a crossroads and I keep saying, oh, I don't know. Oh, I don't know because I literally like, I don't know. So yeah. Okay. So let's see here. I've got what? Is it recycling? No, it's just garbage this week. Gosh, it's like every other week. So I get like confused. Is it? Yeah, that's the recycle one. Okay. Sweet. All right. Garbage out. So now I need to do some other things. Okay. So let me put in this birthday situation, birthday in there. There is a meetup on November 12th. However, I know I didn't go to the last meetup either and I'm just like a horrible person, but I might be working at a SNAP planning, but I'm not sure yet. I'm supposed to be helping Christy do some admin stuff and whatever on this Saturday. But I haven't heard back yet, like for certain. So I'm going to leave my Saturday kind of sticky notes and nothing actually written down because I might be working there. If I'm not working there, then I'm going to definitely go to the planner meetup because it is at 1pm. So it's kind of in the middle of the day. So let me just write work in here and then we'll get rolling. Okay. And then let's see. I'm going to film for part of the day on Sunday. I'm going to use some of these strips to kind of signify that. I don't know if I just really like filming on Sunday mornings because honestly I don't do too much on Sundays. I just kind of chill out and whatnot. Put a little green camera here. I'll just write film. Okay, I'll put this right here because I'm not really sure what's going to happen yet. It's my kind of question mark day today. All right. So and then I actually got these. These are like my new favorite things you guys. Like I can't handle it. Look how cute this is like put in backup videos. Like isn't that the cutest freaking thing? So I actually got these at Coffee Break Planner. I believe they're listed in her shop now. I did ask her Catherine and I are good friends that she owns the shop Coffee Break Planner. They actually just had their one year Etsy birthday which is awesome. There was a really good sale. Sorry, the sale is not happening anymore because when you see this it's going to be Monday, November 7th. However, there is a coupon code down below for 20% off any purchase. So check her out. She's got really great stuff. But I asked her. I said, hey, do you have any clip art that is like USB like thumb drive things? And she's like, yeah, I think I have something. So anyway, I had placed an order and then she snuck these little bad boys into my order. I'm like, darn it, Catherine. I would have just bought them. But anyway, so she, I think they're up on the website now. But I love the way that these are because you can backup files or backup documents or whatever. Anyway, but I usually do that on like Saturdays or Sundays whenever I film to kind of get rid of my last week videos on my computer. Like I don't save, I save all my footage kind of. But I save all my saved footage if that makes sense because all the raw files, it just kind of bogs down your external hard drive. And it just seems like, I don't know, I just don't keep that. But I do keep my thumbnail and I do keep my completed video if that makes any sense to you guys whatsoever. So I'm going to put this in. I'll put it on like Saturday morning. It's just kind of like a reminder to do it, I guess. Let's see. Backup videos. Sounds like backup dancer or something. Backup videos. Do you guys remember pop-up videos? Pop-up videos. No? Just me? I'm old. So I don't know if they even have that anymore. If you know what pop-up videos are, leave a comment below because that would be amazing. If you all knew what that was, you might not know. And it's okay if you don't know. This is such a weird like jacked up week because I'm having an identity crisis. It's like patriotic, but then it's also like military but also like fall colors. Like I'm so confused. So Tuesday evening, I need to go vote because I start work at seven. So yeah, that's a whole nother situation. But and I work so far away from where I actually live that doesn't really work. So I'll just wait till I get home and the polls are open for a really long time. So I need to find some event stickers down at the bottom so I can put my videos in. I think I'm going to do a what date Wednesday on Wednesday, but I think I'll film it on Monday. So I'm able to come home on Tuesday and like edit and upload everything and then Wednesday. I don't know. I'm still not sure. I'm pretty sure I'm going to do this one though on Friday. So the videos, you guys, the videos. Okay. I need to find different event stickers. When I don't know what I want, I just go into my Christian designs binder situation. Let me stay here. I don't know what I want. I'm having an identity crisis today. Maybe I want these two red ones at the top. Maybe. That'll work. That'll work. Okay. Also found my KB sticker code YouTube play buttons. So we're going to put those on here. All right. What do I got? Plan with me and this together. Oh, that's like not center at all. Come on, little friend. Let's make it happen. No. Oh my goodness. Having all the struggles today. There we go. Well, whatever, you know what? It's just going to have to work because I cannot get that right. That's okay. My play button looks a little drunk, but that's okay. Sometimes there's some drunkenness going on on YouTube. There we go. All right. So it was my other video I'm for sure doing. The October Polaroid Zip. So it's that memory page one. So we'll do the plan with me on this day. The memory page. Like I said, I don't want to put the Wednesday one in because I really don't know what's going to happen. What I'm going to do for the Wednesday video, but that's okay. So let me do my list of to-dos, which is not much. At some point I need to go grocery shopping. I just don't know what day I'm going to go yet because today is actually Sunday and I'm going to possibly go grocery shopping yet today. So I haven't really decided yet. But I do need to go to Petco even though I went last week. My dog has been like getting out of his collar on walks. I don't know why, but he has been. He's been like pulling it off of him. And he's kind of a bolter. I mean, he's getting better. Well, he's gotten better over the years because he's so old now. He's almost 10. So he doesn't really run too much anymore, but still it's just kind of like a stressful situation. So in the last week when my mom was here, he actually got out of his collar twice. So I think I just need to get him a new collar because it's like a nylon collar. And I think the collar has like, either it's stretched over time or he's like lost fat rolls in his neck. Like I don't know, if you've ever seen my dog, you can see how chunky and fluffy his face is. I don't really know. So anyway, I need to go get him a smaller collar size at Petco. And I need to... Oh, I need to go to the post office as well. I need to send something to my friend, my one friend, you know, because I've got one friend, right? I don't know why. I think that's funny. So those are the only random to-dos that I have this week. And then I don't know you guys. This week is such a weird week. And I know it's going to be a super weird week with the election. So if you're in the United States, go vote. This is not a political channel, but just go vote. If you want your opinion to be heard, go vote. Just go vote. Just go and vote. And I'm very, very, very looking forward to all of the political ads going away after Tuesday on television and on the radio and whatever. Not that I don't really listen to the radio, but still it's like I'm so sick of it, you guys. Like everyone's made up their mind of what they want to do and go and do it. That's fine. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and that's why this is America. However, have your opinions be heard. I know that I will be exercising my right to vote on Tuesday evening and I know who I am voting for. So if you know who you want to vote for, just go vote. So I'm done with my little soapbox talk. Sorry about that, you guys. But yeah, so okay. Now that I'm ending on a little bit of a political rant, not really a rant, but you know, just go vote. That's just the message. Just go vote. So anyway, okay. I am going to end this video because now as soon as this video is over, I am going to do my October memory page on this bad boy. So I usually do it right there and then I fill this up with a bunch of stuff. So yeah. Okay, so I'm going to let you guys go for now. Thank you guys so, so much for watching. Make sure to hit the like button, the little thumbs up button if you like this video. Also make sure to subscribe. Thank you guys so much for subscribing that already have. I really, really appreciate it. Thank you so much for giving, getting me to over 4,000 subscribers. That is just like amazing. And at some point I will be doing a giveaway once I hit 5,000 subscribers. So if you haven't already subscribed, make sure to subscribe to the channel and then you will see when I end up doing a giveaway which will be part of a video at some point. So I've got a long way to go from there, but you never know. I have no idea if that will happen within this year or if it's going to happen next year. So hopefully fingers crossed, you guys can get me to 5,000 subscribers by the end of the year. That would be awesome. That would be so cool. And also the thing I talked about at the beginning of the video of Vlogmas, please leave your thoughts and comments below whether they be positive, negative or neutral. I'm just very curious as to what you all think about me doing Vlogmas. So, so yeah, I'm going to, if the resounding answer is yes to Vlogmas, I will try to make it a little bit interesting for you. I will be planning on doing some things that I wouldn't necessarily normally do, like a normal daily vlogger because I'm only doing it for one month. I will be traveling in the month of December, so that'll be kind of fun. I'll be going to Florida for a period of time and I will also possibly be going on like a girls weekend too in the month of December. So there's some things going on that might be a little bit interesting to you all. So anyway, leave your thoughts and feelings down below. I just am very curious to know your thoughts. Okay, so that is it for me. I'm going to stop rambling. Thank you so much for hanging out with me today. I really, really, really appreciate it. As always, if you have any questions, feel free to post them below. As always, there are links below for you guys as to some of the planner shops that I used in this spread. There are some sneaky little coupon codes there too. So make sure to use those if you want to buy something because who doesn't love a coupon code? So that is it for me. Thanks for spending some time with me today and I will talk to you all in my next video. Bye guys.
