 Well hello and welcome to vlogtober day 13. It's Friday the 13th. I got my laundry going in the background and I figured I would answer some of your questions and still do a laundry day Q&A even though I didn't call for questions because I didn't answer all of my questions last week. And if it looks like I'm hunching down I am because if I were to sit all the way straight like my eyeballs are kind of not in a frame. So I want to address one question I've gotten a lot which is how are you doing since taking time off and I'm doing really really well. I'm loving the time away. I have been vlogging every day. You guys will have seen those vlogs or maybe I'm gonna condense it into one vlog from Monday to Thursday but I'm not sure how I'm gonna do that. I literally haven't edited anything. So I know I had plans yesterday to edit and I just was like you know what? I have other things that I really want to do right now. So I did those instead because again I've allowed myself to have a little time off. So this weekend you guys are gonna see like a flurry of videos from me but I'm doing great. Thanks for asking and I have been able to share a lot more especially on Instagram. I've been doing a little bit on Facebook but mostly Instagram. If you guys want to follow me the links are always below. So anyway let's get into the laundry day Q&A. I'm gonna pull up the last laundry day Q&A video because I think there was a couple of questions that people had asked. So I'll go into that. I'll do some YouTube. I'll do some Instagram and I think I have some on Facebook still too. So I'll do a little bit of everything and we'll go from there. Someone asked what editing software do you use and what would you suggest for a newbie? I suggest using whatever comes with your computer. I have a Mac. iMovie came with it. I use that. I love it. It works really well. I did have a PC before and used whatever their video editing program was. I can't remember what it was. It was so long ago but I used that and that was great too. So I don't recommend ever really investing in any video editing software or program if you don't need to. So just use whatever comes with your computer first and no reason to invest in something that is probably already on your laptop or desktop. Someone says how did you pick Doyle's name? I think I've talked about this several times but he is named after Doyle Brunson, the famous poker player. All right so the last YouTube question I'm going to answer. There's actually a couple of questions from this individual. Doyle, get out of there. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, get out, out, out, out, out, out, out. I don't know what he is doing but he's eating something off of the floor which is gross. Okay so there are a bunch of questions from this one person. Are there any YouTubers that you used to watch but don't anymore and why? The only person that comes to mind just because she isn't posting as regularly is Christina Brawley. I love her like regular videos but she's been posting some vlogs recently. She was formerly pretty shiny sparkly on YouTube and I love her content. I just haven't seen any like regular like her regular video content that I am gravitating towards. She does a lot of like luxury handbags and makeup and you know things like that but she hasn't been posting as consistently. I know she's back in Texas. She was in North Carolina, well I guess she was in Texas, then moved to North Carolina, then is back in Texas and is pregnant and she's also an anesthesiologist so she's like a busy, busy gal. I just haven't seen a ton of videos pop up from her so probably her. That's kind of the only person that I can think of but honestly I subscribe to a lot of YouTube channels. I don't consistently watch every single video just because I have limited time and I want to watch what I'm interested in so like if I'm watching a specific channel for something and say they do like makeup, fashion and hair and I really only want to see the fashion and nothing else. I'll only click on the fashion videos so yeah I guess that's probably the only one I can think of off the top of my head. I'm sure there's a bunch but I don't know and this individual also writes do you have any hobbies outside of stickers, pens and planners? She says I totally have a stationary addiction. I would love to see everyone else's stuff. Okay so anyway yeah probably see that little green plant thing that's not actually a plant by the way it's fake because I don't like living plants but I just got that today at Hobby Lobby. I think I have like a home decor addiction. I love going out and finding stuff and not spending a ton of money like I got everything all of that was 50% off at Hobby Lobby. I love like home goods, marshals, TGMX, any place that has a little bit better of a deal like I get sick of things really fast so if in like two or three years I get sick of that thing it can just go away and then I don't have to feel bad about it because I used it and I enjoyed it and they loved it while I had it but maybe it's time to pass it on to another home so that's kind of how I feel about home decor stuff so I really like home decor. I think that's probably an addiction. All right so let's go over to Instagram and I am going to pull up the last image that I oh gosh I'm on my dog's Instagram. Hold on. I'm going to pull up the last image that was asking for questions. All right so I've got a great question. What is your next big purchase outside the couch? So you guys know that I got my sofa actually yesterday and my next big purchase is probably fingers crossed if no appliances break um doing some electrical upgrades in this home so that's my next big purchase um it may include a couple of new fixtures it may not I'm gonna have my electrician friend to come over here and talk about what I would like to do and then start ordering things or maybe going to the store together and buying a bunch of stuff but there are a few different things that I want to get plus I want to talk to him about some things that I want to do uh where there's not electrical currently to see if we can you know pull electrical from another area and all that kind of stuff. Hi Doyle hi hi oh my goodness this dog so that's my next big purchase but I will let you guys know when that happens. Another question is what baby step are you on? I'm currently on four and six but to be honest I'm not doing either right now um baby step four is 15 percent of your income going into retirement I don't have that happening right now it will be happening come December 1 and then um I you know pay off your mortgage early which I haven't been making extra payments at all to um just because I'm trying to get settled in and settled into the new job but as of the beginning of next year 2018 um I have plans on um you know making extra payments or paying more on my mortgage every month. Someone asked have you ever tried or thought about dating? Well I have dated several people in the past so yeah I guess I've tried it and I've thought about it and she says is there any anyone you've met that you may be interested in currently no um I'm not that into that I don't know how to answer that question I would need to meet somebody that is um worth my time I know that sounds kind of crazy but I for as boring as I seem I'm really busy a lot so I just need to find somebody that like sparks my interest enough to make the time for I guess and I haven't met that individual so no I don't currently have anybody in my life that uh I'm interested in and last Instagram question I'm gonna answer is what is your favorite scary movie um I wouldn't say it's scary because it's actually my favorite movie of all time which is silence of the lambs it is amazing and I love it um I'm not into like the scary like jumpy movies like movies um I am more into like the psychological thriller like kind of movies to make your brain work a little bit more so now let's go over to the Facebook the book of faces is I like to call it shone calmed and um let's see I think there was a couple of other unanswered questions on this social media outlet let's find it gosh I post a lot of things let's see so the first question on Facebook is going to be what do you put on your monthly planner spend well I have my monthly planner spreads here and I will show you exactly what I put on there it's really freaking boring you guys you want to see what April of 2017 looked like this is it absolutely nothing nothing exciting um I put in birthdays that's it and I don't know I don't know how I'm gonna set up my 2018 to be completely honest I just don't I just don't utilize it in the way that it probably should be utilized all right and the last question I'm gonna answer today um is this is kind of a long question but it says kind of a serious question I saw your post where you said your instagram account was hacked and a while back I saw the video where you cut up all your credit cards she says congratulations on that so I was just wondering if you signed up for the identity theft protection program uh Dave Ramsey recommends and if you think it's a good value honestly I know nothing about that I do listen to his podcast I know you can buy it through Xander insurance I think you know to be honest I've never looked into it I don't know what the price is I don't have identity theft protection maybe I should get it I don't know but honestly identity theft protection would not help me with social media they they would help with like banking issues and things like that so yeah um and by the way my account was hacked again after that too which I didn't post about because I got my account recovered very very quickly like within an hour or two but um yeah it's like people stop being stupid like leave other people's accounts alone like I don't under I don't understand why they care because then they got in there and they did nothing they didn't do anything so I'm like I have no idea people are just dumb sometimes but yeah I think that is going to be it today for the Q&A if you guys have any more questions for next week feel free to put them down below and I will get to as many of you guys as I can next week and you guys did see Doyle he was over here earlier but um we're not gonna do a big Doyle challenge today because yesterday with the sofa it was like all Doyle challenge the entire vlog because he was just so excited about the day sofa but anyway I'm gonna finally make some dinner because it is super late it is 7 14 it's hard to see but it's 7 14 p.m and um I'm really hungry and there's no light in here at all which is why there's like this weird overhead light and my face looks really funky but you know you do what you gotta do but I am in a jet thank you guys so much for watching I really appreciate it and I will see you guys in the next vlog bye guys
