1:02
definitely been worse so don't think

that this is like the worst it has ever
1:06
been I've seen better days though so to
1:10
me it just feels like a disaster a lot
1:12
of things have been happening a lot of
1:15
changes for our family that we've kind
1:17
of just been dealing with so my posting
1:19
schedule was a little bit off um a
1:22
little bit slow and I feel like over the
1:25
past few weeks I've been adjusting and
1:28
then readjusting and I'm kind of still
1:30
like readjusting to just some of the
1:32
things that right now is just too soon
1:35
to talk about but hopefully I will be
1:37

1:42
the meantime I just need to catch up on
1:45
some things that have over the past
1:47
couple of weeks gotten out of place I
1:50
have definitely done my best to keep up
1:52
with like all of the cleaning in the
1:53
home and the chores and you know things
1:56
like that but sometimes as a mom as a
2:00
homem maker sometimes you know the best
2:03
you can do is just make sure that your
2:04
family is fed and healthy and that you
2:07
know all those things are in place and
2:09
then the chores and those type of things
2:10
come later I ordered some new cleaning
2:12
products from Grove so I'm super excited
2:14
to unbox those and try them out I used
2:17
their dish soap before and oh my
2:20
goodness it smelled Heavenly and so I
2:23
have been saying that I was going to try
2:24
a lot of their other products as well so
2:26
I am going to do that I've been wanting
2:28
to switch to more sustainable cleaning
2:30

3:04
so right now we are currently doing a
3:07
little bit of Home renovating so we are
3:11
switching up the kitchen a little bit
3:13
just trying to brighten it up some so
3:16
originally our kitchen counter tops were
3:20
a cherry wood color just like those wood
3:23
blinds that we have hanging over the
3:25
sink so we actually need to switch those
3:28
out and switch them out to like a cream
3:30
or white colored blind but because we
3:34
were redoing like the kitchen countertop
3:36
the kitchen was a mess so a lot of
3:38
things are out of place and the dishes
3:41
had gone a little while like just
3:43
basically piling up so I decided to go
3:47
ahead and just start in the kitchen I am
3:49
taking a load out of the dishwasher and
3:51
then I'm going to put another load
3:53
inside of the dishwasher and then I'm
3:55
going to just try to put some of the
3:57
things back on the countertops see what
4:00
type of look I'm going to go for I kind
4:02
of have to like redo this whole scheme
4:05
and there's still a lot of work we have
4:06
to do we still have to touch up and
4:09
repaint like the cabinets and we are
4:12
actually also redoing our family room at
4:15
the same time so a lot of things have
4:17
just gotten out of place but as always I
4:21
am starting inside of the kitchen
4:23
because the kitchen is the heart of our
4:26
homes so if my kitchen is a mess and I
4:28
feel like I'm a mess CU I need to use my
4:30
kitchen multiple times per day so I will
4:34
let the music play out a little bit it's
4:37
kind of like a relaxing theme going on
4:40
here to start and then I will show you
4:43
guys the things that I got from Grove
4:45
collaborative and if you have tried
4:47
Grove home cleaning products before and
4:50

4:55

5:00

[Music]
6:58
n
7:00
[Music]
7:06
okay guys let's go ahead and get into
7:09
this unboxing with Grove collaborative
7:11
sustainable home cleaning products the
7:14
first thing I ordered was the Grove dish
7:17
soap dispenser as well as the reusable
7:20
cleaning bottle and another reusable
7:23
cleaning bottle for glass cleaner the
7:26
dish soap dispenser came with two soaps
7:30
so I chose the lavender scented it is
7:34
lavender Blossom and th orange Citrus
7:37
glass cleaner concentrate as well as two
7:40
lavender and Blossom thyme multi-purpose
7:43
cleaner concentrates I also got this
7:46
free Grove collaborative cleaning caddy
7:49
for free because I ordered $20 worth of
7:52
products and I also got their W nuts and
7:56
cellulose scrubber sponge and and some
7:59
of their lavender Blossom and time
8:01
laundry detergent sheets this lavender
8:04
scent is my favorite so far purchased
8:07
this one before from Walmart and this is
8:10
the scent that I was telling you guys
8:11
about that I pretty much fell in love
8:13
with so I had to get this scent again so
8:16
here I'm just filling the dish soap
8:19
dispenser with the dish soap and then
8:22
for the cleaning products you make it
8:25
yourself using the concentrate so you
8:27
fill up majority of the bottle with
8:28
water and leave enough space for you to
8:31
add your cleaning concentrate I'm using
8:34
the filtered water dispenser that we
8:36
have because we do have hard water and
8:39
even with our water softener and our
8:41
whole house filtration we still have
8:43
like separate filtration system for like
8:46
drinking water so that's the water that
8:48
I'm using for mixing the cleaning
8:51
products so you mix the concentrate with
8:54
the water and just give it a really good
8:58
Shake
8:59
[Music]
9:09
it has like a rubber label on the bottom
9:11
and you can change it depending on what
9:13
type of soap you're going to be using or
9:16
cleaner you're going to be pouring
9:17
inside of your reusable bottle and then
9:20
the same thing goes for the one that I
9:22
ordered for the glass cleaner so I'm
9:24
going to do the same thing just fill it
9:26
up with filtered water and then I am
9:30
also going to add the Citrus and orange
9:34
glass cleaning concentrate to this
9:36
bottle and then give it a good Shake as
9:43
[Music]
9:58
well
10:04
[Music]
10:28
n
10:33
[Music]
11:12
[Music]
12:01
[Music]
12:19
[Music]
13:19
okay so so far I think that this is a
13:22
lot better kind of got to like redo like
13:24
the whole style I feel like of the
13:25
countertops since we changed we had like
13:28
that wood look like the Cherry brown
13:32
wood look top but we kind of went with
13:34
like this like I don't know if you guys
13:36
can kind of see so we got like the
13:37
little gray and black Speckles inside of
13:40
like the creamy white with like hints of
13:43
like
13:44
gray like I don't want to say marble
13:46
look but just something a little more
13:48
modern so we're trying to just update
13:51
the whole house the blinds that's the
13:53
color that our countertops were for now
13:59
I need new blinds and I need to get the
14:01
color that's inside the family room so
14:02
like just white one a new microwave and
14:05
I want to get a new dishwasher to match
14:07
the stove and the fridge and you know
14:11
but basically this is the state of the
14:13
family room so I kind the reason I say
14:17
it's a disaster is because for one like
14:19
I feel like our kitchen has been like a
14:20
little bit out of place as we're trying
14:22
to get everything together and then the
14:24
family room we took a lot of stuff out
14:26
of here so that we can redo this we're
14:28
going to repaint all the walls to a
14:31
light gray color which is the same color
14:33
you guys can barely see but like the
14:35
same color if you guys can see that's on
14:37
this side in the kitchen this like
14:39
platinum silver color in the kitchen is
14:41
what we're going to do in the family
14:42
room and then we're going to re remove
14:44
all of like the trims that are old and
14:47
have paint on them and make those white
14:50
trims and then we bought new floor
14:53
everything that I moved out the family
14:54
room the desk I put it back in here it
14:57
was in the family room my son's like
15:01
toys like that little wicker Bean has
15:04
his toys in it and then he has like the
15:06
Cub shelving over there with his toys in
15:09
it as well as a little basket like
15:11
everything is in here and we still have
15:13
to add the couch into here and we still
15:15
have to put the coffee table so in here
15:20
it's like it's a mess I'm going to tidy
15:21
up like pick up like stuff off the
15:24
floor and dust but that's pretty much
15:27
the best I can do for now basically I
15:30
kind of just feel like the house is just
15:32
out of place right now and it's such
15:34
terrible timing because I'm ready to
15:36
begin decorating for Christmas I want to
15:39
have some things
15:41
decorated like before Thanksgiving I
15:44
pretty much just need to pull everything
15:46
out and see what I have at this point so
15:49
that I know what I still need to get to
15:51
decorate this year because I'm going to
15:53
be using some of the things that I had
15:55
last year and then purchasing a few new
15:57
things we have been trying to figure out
15:58
what Noah's budget is going to be for
16:00
Christmas this year because I want to
16:02
start his Christmas shopping with
16:04
probably next week as well so just a lot
16:07
of different things right now that I'm
16:09
trying to figure out I got to do some
16:10
toy rotation and toy donation before we
16:13
start getting new Christmas gifts or you
16:15
know at some point so it's like this
16:17
year has flown by it's the end of
16:19
October we only have two more months
16:21
left in this year it's crazy to think
16:22
that my next grocery haul is going to be
16:25
a Thanksgiving grocery haul and then the
16:27
one after that is going to be Christmas
16:29
grocery haul and then New Year so it's
16:31
really crazy to think that there's only
16:32
two more months left in the year with a
16:34
ton of things left to do and then all of
16:38
the the changes that like has been
16:40
happening with my family so a lot of
16:42
things which is kind of good because I
16:44
like to stay busy um especially during
16:47
this season this is normally my season
16:48
of rest but within that season sometimes
16:51
I get a little sad and down so staying
16:54
busy helps me to deal with like the gray
16:57
skies the rain the cold weather not
17:01
having a lot of sun and not being able
17:03
to go outside a lot it helps me to deal
17:05
with that by staying busy and then just
17:07
using that time of rest in between to
17:09
just be grateful and thankful even
17:11
though like the hous isn't shambles in
17:12
the meantime it's a blessing to just you
17:15
know have our home to be a homemaker to
17:17
be a homeowner all that stuff so that's
17:20
my little like
17:21
[Music]
17:27
rant
17:29
[Music]
17:37
[Music]
17:45
so right now marks the very last time
17:48
that I will be vacuuming this carpet
17:52
this carpet has been here since we moved
17:54
in and we just moved in here last year
17:57
last summer we have shampooed it so many
18:01
times we had it professionally cleaned
18:03
and steamed we've done so much but
18:06
carpet is just so much harder to clean
18:09
it holds so much more dust so much more
18:13
dirt and sometimes even if it looks like
18:15
it's clean on the surface if it's old
18:18
it's probably time for it to go so I
18:21
don't know how old the carpet is because
18:24
when we purchased the home we didn't ask
18:26
the
18:27
homeowners and we had to replace a lot
18:31
of the floors in the home we had to
18:32
replace all of the floor upstairs
18:34
because it was carpets in the bedrooms
18:36
and we didn't want to have like used
18:39
carpet in like our sleeping quarters
18:42
upstairs hallway basement floors the
18:45
bathroom floors we did a lot of painting
18:48
it was a lot of Home renovating that we
18:50
had to do because of like budgeting and
18:52
things we're just now getting to the
18:54
family room carpet and I'm so happy that
18:56
we are finally able to to switch it out
19:00
I just feel like oh my goodness it's
19:02
going to be a lot more cleaner it'll be
19:05
a lot better for our allergies and it's
19:07
going to last a lot
19:11
[Music]
19:27
longer
19:32
[Music]
19:43
[Music]
19:47
so I know I already cleaned the stove
19:50
top but now I'm just polishing it the
19:52
glass part of it with glass
19:54
[Music]

[Music]
22:26
prayer so now I am going to work my way
22:29
through the laundry mostly it's clothes
22:32
that I need to fold and I think that I
22:35
have to do my son's laundry and blankets
22:38
so yeah I have some laundry to do so I'm
22:40
going to work my way through that catch
22:42
up on laundry I think it's been a week
22:45
since I've done laundry and normally I
22:47
would do laundry if not every day every
22:49
other day just to stay on top of
22:50
everything and to make sure that I don't
22:52
have a lot to food so one day I might do
22:55
mine the next day I would do my
22:56
husband's laundry the next next day I
22:58
would do my son's laundry then towels
23:00
then blankets then rugs um me just like
23:03
a repeat cycle of that so that I don't
23:05
get behind but I was getting behind um
23:08
last week I had the flu so that slowed
23:10
me down a little bit and then besides
23:12
that um I've just been kind of just
23:15
behind on everything already so I I'm
23:18
going to catch up on some laundry and
23:20
get that stuff taken care of and then
23:22
I'm going to sit down and really try and
23:24
figure out I'm going to go about like
23:25
the whole like decorating schemes and
23:29
the timeline that I'm going to do this
23:30
stuff and how I want everything to look
23:34
um and hopefully in the next hopefully
23:38
in the next Vlog things will be more in
23:42
place as far as like Renovations and
23:44
things like that go um one more thing I
23:46
made a new channel just for travel and
23:49
Disney content I'm trying to decide if
23:51
that's the route that I want to take um
23:54
it's I've been a little bit unsure about
23:56
it since I've started it it hasn't been
23:58
feeling like it's been coming to me just
24:00
like
24:01
naturally or with the enjoyment that I
24:04
thought that I might get from it um I
24:07
love traveling to Disney World and I
24:10
love talking about it but I don't want
24:14
it to become a thing where I no longer
24:17
enjoy it because I made it a job you
24:19
know I don't know I don't know I don't
24:21
feel like that with this channel so I'm
24:23
kind of wondering if I should just find
24:25
a way to incorporate it here so if you
24:28

24:29
that if you watched any of my Disney
24:32
