 Hey guys, welcome back to my channel. So I have a ton of cleaning motivation for you today as always and you know what, it's been a little bit since I've done a more so normal cleaning video just tackling the mess and I do all kinds of content here on my channel and it's just been a busy month. For sure. So today I just wanted to get a general clean done. I did recently get some Christmas decor up. So if you guys missed that video, I highly recommend checking it out. I've got a fun idea for Christmas morning for breakfast. I'll leave the link in the description box if you missed it. Lately, I have felt like I'm kind of in what most would call the sick of motherhood. I have a two, three and four year old and I don't know what it is about this season of life. But it's definitely gotten way more complicated and way busier. They just are so into everything and need me a lot. So there are days that I go to bed and the dishes do not get done, which the day before this, obviously that was the case. And so I just end up having to tackle it the next day. But I have been learning to pace myself. And if you guys watch my videos a lot, you've probably been hearing me say this a lot. But I just really have been looking for balance in life and learning to let things slide whenever they need to be and just keep the most important things as a priority. Also, I got a lot of questions about my blue plates and bowls that I use for my daughters. And they're actually from Target. And if I remember correctly, I think they're like 69 cents a piece, something like that. Every once in a while, I pick up a few more and they've actually have some that have dividers and then some that are just a regular plate. And yeah, they are super durable. And there's something that I've been able to use for a couple years since my oldest was really small and I use them in the dishwasher all the time. And they really do hold up well. If you guys are cleaning along with me today, I did throw some energizing music into this video. So I hope that you can get up and get your to-do list done as well. Actually filmed this over two different evenings. As you guys know, I like to break up our house into kind of two different sides. We have a mostly one level house. And so one side is more the living spaces like the dining room, kitchen and living room. And then the other side is kind of the bedrooms. And that was kind of the case with this cleaning. The one day I did the one side. And then this was the second day I did the bedrooms and bathroom side. And unfortunately, this just makes me cringe. But the first part of this video, I actually lost some footage of me doing the dining room and my laundry room and stuff. So I guess you guys will have to catch that the next time around. But I decided to go ahead and put up the video anyways, because there was still a lot of motivation in it. And if you're curious about the cloths that I'm using, they're actually Norwex cloths and I actually purchase most all of my cleaning products from Grove. These are the only things that I don't. I get them from Amazon, but they're really cool. They actually have something called colloidal silver in them, and that kills bacteria. I will let you guys Google it. You can research it and find out how they exactly work, but they do work really well. I love using them on windows and mirrors and just to wipe things down. They just a microfiber cloth and do a super great job. Also had to do my Aaron Williams towel flip. Let me know in the comments if you guys know the joke on that one. This was perfect timing. I actually used up the last of my fall Mrs. Meyers sent from Grove because the Christmas stuff is in the mail and I'm excited to get it. I love, love, love the Christmas sense for Mrs. Meyers. It always makes my home feel so festive and I love the change from the fall to the Christmas ones. In the shower, I actually used a mixture of the daily shower cleaner from Method. And then I also used Grove's bathroom cleaner, the one that comes in Concentrate. I get questions about that every now and then. If I like that stuff and yes, I do and I do use it. I'm actually right on the tail end of the pack I had and I need to reorder in my next order. And of course, if you guys don't know what Grove is, they provide a lot of natural cleaning products. And right now, if you check out the link in the description box, you will get the entire Mrs. Method Christmas set for free with your first order, which is totally worth it. And even if you already have it, it's a great gift to give away through the holidays because I believe it comes with a cleaning caddy. And it's just kind of like a gift set in itself. As homemakers, I know that sometimes it feels like all the things that we do around the house goes so unnoticed. But I tell you what, I remember my mom working hard at cleaning and honestly sweeping her floors. I know I get comments now and then about the fact that I use my broom instead of my vacuum cleaner on my hard surfaces. I do use both, but I think I get the broom thing from my mom. She often swept her floors and all the scoldings we would get for walking through her dirt piles on my word. We all laugh about that now. But just know that someone probably is noticing that you keep up with your house. And especially if you have kids, you're teaching them to, you know, keep their spaces clean and orderly and just to live a healthier lifestyle. So a big thank you for watching this video today. I hope that it motivated you to get up and get your cleaning done or whatever you're tackling today. And just remember that you are valued and everything that you do is definitely worth something. I hope that you have a wonderful day and if you're new around here, don't forget to hit that subscribe button. Give this video a like for me and I will see you guys in my next video.
