Feb 28, 2025
Join me for a raw and real glimpse into my life as a stay-at-home mom, as I tackle cooking lunch and dinner, working from home, cleaning up, and the never ending laundry pile. Along the way, I share my struggles with seasonal depression and how I cope with it during the day. If you're a mom (or parent) who can relate, then this video is for you. Let's get through this day together!

if you are new here then welcome and if
0:02
you are not new then welcome back today
0:03
is going to be a very raw and real Day
0:07
in the Life Vlog probably the most
0:10
vulnerable and transparent Vlog I have
0:13
ever done yet it's like 12 1 o'clock in
0:16
the afternoon and I have not even gotten
0:18
my day started yet I'm standing here in
0:21
front of this window and it's so great
0:23
outside it snowed yesterday and it's May
0:27
and by now I am just ready for some
0:30
sunlight
0:32
it's been spring since March and here we
0:35
are in May and it's snow that's not fun
0:38
for me at all and today is one of those
0:41
days that I'm definitely feeling some of
0:44
the seasonal depression that I talked
0:45
about in one of my previous videos and
0:48
so during this time I typically like to
0:50
kind of just hide away tuck myself under
0:53
the covers go to sleep
0:55
and just do nothing I recognize that
1:00
that can affect the people around me my
1:02
husband and my son who are so very
1:04
important to me I feel like I need to
1:06
get up and move around and do some
1:08
things there are a ton of things that
1:09
need to be done just not a lot that I
1:12
want to do but I'm going to force myself
1:13
to do some things to just get my day
1:16
going and get moving around and try to
1:19
distract myself so I did pick up the
1:21
camera today I need to become more
1:23
comfortable in front of the camera
1:24
vlogging
1:25
um and things like that that's what I'm
1:27
gonna do today just try and have just a
1:30
typical day in the life so here's what
1:32
The Homeschool Room is looking like
1:34
right now my husband had been doing some
1:37
work upstairs he had been storing things
1:39
up here so I kind of let this room go
1:41
into shambles and then besides that Noah
1:46
came in through a lot of like little
1:47
Lego booklets and pieces around the
1:49
floor it's not as bad as it could be but
1:51
it's pretty bad so I'm gonna try and
1:53
start here and tidy up this room to that
1:55
we can be more productive
1:57
[Music]
2:16
this is better for now and deal with
2:18
this in our Homeschool Room
2:21
much better
2:22
stinky hi
2:27
[Music]
2:58
so I got myself together and came
3:00
downstairs my husband just took my son
3:03
out to the store so I'm going to use
3:06
this time to prepare some lunch it's not
3:08
about to be anything big I'm about to
3:10
make pizza and salad for lunch and then
3:13
I am going to move on to preparing
3:15
dinner because it's 2 30 in the
3:17
afternoon now so I'm gonna go ahead and
3:20
just prepare dinner so that we can have
3:22
dinner you know around six o'clock seven
3:24
o'clock whatever kind of typically don't
3:25
even cook dinner until like six or seven
3:27
and then we eat dinner about eight
3:30
o'clock but
3:33
um today I'm gonna just get it done
3:34
early because I know I'm feeling like a
3:36
little more on the tired side so by six
3:39
or seven I don't know how I'm gonna be
3:40
feeling so I'm gonna just get everything
3:42
out of the way the earlier the better
3:45
and so that way I'll have a head start
3:47
on
3:48
tomorrow
3:51
[Music]
4:03
all right
4:05
[Music]
4:17
[Applause]
4:18
[Music]
4:25
[Applause]
4:26
[Music]
4:38
so
4:40
I had to do some cleaning before I could
4:42
cook anything and so now
4:45
I just have this little pizza it's like
4:48
this thin crusted Pizza that we got from
4:51
the grocery store we never tried it
4:53
before so I'm hoping that it'll be good
4:54
and it has been in like a pizza phase
4:56
these days like he's just been one pizza
4:59
so I'm gonna make this pizza because I
5:03
got a late start today and we're gonna
5:04
have it with salad for lunch and then
5:07
I'm just gonna go ahead and cook dinner
5:08
early and I'm doing stuffed pasta so
5:11
some jumbo pasta shells and then I'm
5:14
just gonna stuff them with like meat and
5:17
cheese and sauce and vegetables and
5:20
basically the look kind of something
5:22
like that so that's what we're gonna
5:24
have for dinner with this little Texas
5:27
toast
5:29
[Music]
5:35
[Music]
5:37
please
5:41
[Music]
5:56
[Music]
6:08
thank you
6:11
[Music]
6:30
thank you
6:32
[Music]
7:00
I pray
7:04
there's the bread the pasta shells and
7:08
the meat is done as well so now I'm just
7:11
waiting for these to cool off and once
7:12
they're completely cool I can stuff them
7:15
with the meat and then I'll be done with
7:17
my dinner so these are just the stuffed
7:19
shells they're super easy to make all
7:21
you do is put sauce at the bottom and
7:23
then you put the shell stuff it with
7:25
like meat whatever kind you want some
7:28
sauce some cheese I got onion and bell
7:32
pepper in there
7:33
and then you layer them in a pan and
7:36
then you top it off with more sauce
7:38
more cheese and then a little bit of
7:40
parsley and then you just put it in the
7:43
oven so that the cheese can melt on top
7:45
and it's just that simple but then the
7:48
bread was just like some frozen garlic
7:50
bread that I got from the store that
7:52
pretty much that is dinner for tonight
7:55
so dinner is done and it's like 3 30 now
7:59
[Music]
8:03
mm-hmm
8:06
okay so I have actually for the past
8:09
hour just been working and blogging
8:12
putting out some articles doing like
8:15
some keyword research and Analysis and
8:17
things like that so I have completely
8:19
gotten like lost in my work was going on
8:22
five o'clock now and
8:24
it has thus far just been a pretty chill
8:27
day
8:28
since getting up and getting everything
8:30
done
8:31
um but you didn't see in the Vlog is
8:33
this morning when we got up and we
8:36
homeschooled and then just sat around
8:39
for the rest of the morning and then I
8:41
picked up the camera and decided to go
8:43
hide and just start vlogging the rest of
8:46
the day has been pretty chill like I
8:48
said we're probably gonna eat around
8:50
seven o'clock today so it's going on
8:53
five I think I'm gonna spend a bit more
8:55
time working and then wrap that up
8:58
around six o'clock and then get us all
9:02
ready for dinner like babe didn't
9:05
showered and things like that and
9:07
prepared to like set the dinner table so
9:10
that we can just eat and pretty much
9:12
just end our night so I am happy that I
9:15
picked up the camera today and just
9:16
showed my face and hopefully you guys
9:19
were able to spend some time with me and
9:21
just see how you can just turn around a
9:24
day if you're not like feeling the best
9:26
and you know just maybe urge you to
9:29
still get up and do some things move
9:31
around get some things done and that can
9:34
do a lot for like being a distraction
9:37
and helping you stay productive and busy
9:40
and you know just not you know sitting
9:42
around and wallowing in your boredom and
9:45
things like that so hopefully it was
9:47
helpful in that type of way and if you
