Video

Hahahaha!! Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it. I Have way too much fun making these videos. Adding in the sound effects is the best part ;)

Thank you!! Some of the digitals are mine and some are from Etsy. I am going to be making my digital kits for Halloween this week or next. I am a bit slow with these this year sadly. I can let you know when they are done as the vampire kitty will be in at least one of the kits :)

@@ilaandalice oh that’s great !! Thank you ☺️

Thank you!!! :)

Thank you!! It was tons of fun...now, Christmas journals LOL!

Ooooooooh, good call!

Hahahahah!!! This one is almost ridiculous ;) As always, I enjoy pushing the limits LOL! Thank you! Hugs xo

Thank you!!!! I am glad that we could hang out while you were packing :) Hugs and try to enjoy it all xo

Thank you!!! Hahahaah!--> (not a real orange dress, that’s cruel) Now when I see an orange dress at Value Village I will think of you ;) YT won't allow clickable links in the comments but I added a link in the description to the glues sticks and they are on sale right now. Great glue sticks with a lovely smell LOL! I prefer a bigger glue stick like the Elmer's Extreme BUT these are very good and I have already been thru two packages of them. The glue is a bit soft but it holds really well :)

YES!!! I totally agree. Less can be more for our imagination. That is a really great point. Like I said, I LOVE the thrill of the find and then once I get it...Im over it and that is not good either. I have to admit, most days I look around and all my stuff makes me happy but then I think about how much there is and I wonder if I made the right choices. I try not to regret my purchases and make myself feel bad but instead learn from them and question what I am buying and why. I don't even have a very big space compared to others. Thanks Sandi for being here!! Hugs :)

@@ilaandalicegreat video and love your stories and chatter. Love your cat !! I’m so much like you 😂 I am all thrilled about the hunt and find; and then I don’t use it either ! Happens with digitals too😅 it’s a great intention to use your stash 😅 I wouldn’t write off shopping either 😂😂😂 🇨🇦

Awwwww, thank you!! That is how I feel when I am making the videos. Sometimes I get a bit down bc it seems that YT doesn't really push my videos out to very many people but then I read a comment like yours and it reminds me that I am doing just fine. So thank you so much for that :) AND! talk about kismet! My Granny was both a spinner and a weaver. I talk about (in one of my videos) going to the sheep farm w her and buying the wool fresh off the sheep and helping her wash it and dye it. I was very little when we did that. But right up until she was about 80, she used her loom. It was HUGE! A 6 foot floor loom. and just about every room in her house had a spinning wheel in it. Ill look for photos that I can show you. I am with you, once I make up my mind that I am not suing something anymore, it has to go. let someone else enjoy the thrill of finding such a great treasure :) Thanks Sandi!

@@ilaandalice oh yes I’d love to see the photos. I’m a knitter too, I just donated 8 large tubs to our local hospital, senior center and nursing homes. I still have 5 tubs left 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Ill do some digging. My Dad still has a small spinning wheel of hers in the attic. Hard to part with. WOW! They must have loved that. Good for you! Well, 5 tubs still might hold some inspiration for you. Baby steps, the struggle is real ;) xo

@@ilaandalice 💙💙

I love me some groovy music!! I grew up with the disco fever LOL!!! Next video I am going to go thru some drawers with you all and see what we can find ;) While we can't remember everything, I do think that if went thru my stuff on a more regular basis, my recall would be better. I need to enjoy my supplies and not sorry about whether or not Ill have money to more if I run out. I will. But the chances of me running out are pretty slim LOL! I think it is important to keep talking about it bc there is shame attached to having bought supplies we don't use. We can be victims of our success in that way. I so appreciate you being here, thank you! Hugs xo

Thank you Nancy!! I am glad that you found it interesting :) For me, I know that I reject orange bc there are aspects about that colour that I find challenging. Orange is a very emotionally charged colour and I am not very good at feeling my feelings. i like to talk about how I feel but I am not great a actually allowing the feelings to come up. So, after some reading it makes to me why orange is a challenge for me. I hope that if I work with orange and bring more orange into my life, it can me be better at feeling the feelings. If that makes sense. Red definitely helps make me feel more grounded if I am having a bad day or if I am mentally chaotic. Maybe the red card you picked wants you to see how you feel when you add red to your journal...if you find it in any way helpful. I LOVE this stuff!! I would be curious if you like a red/purple or if you are attracted to a more blue/purple. Enjoy the chart!! Hugs xo

Thank you!!! I have to admit, I dreaded going thru all the stuff and binning it all bc I felt bad about getting rid of it BUT afterwards I felt great ( surprisingly!) bc it was a relief not to feel bad about it all sitting there. Keep what really speaks to you and give thanks for the other stuff as it goes in the blue bin. It will be a great way to start the new year....which isn't THAT far away. Which is crazy in itself! Hugs!! xo

Thank you!! I am enjoying watching summer slowly end and autumn slowly emerging. Good stuff :) Glad you enjoyed it!

Awwwww, thank you! I am so glad that you find these videos helpful...cuz that really is my hope. This moving and organizing never ends. Which is great bc I LOVE to do that too. Have a fanatic week and thank you for being here. Greatly appreciated, Lisa xo

P.S. We need to see the wolf gloves! LOL

Thank you!!That is the key, to really be able to pinpoint which things you really want to keep and what stuff you keep bc you think you should or have to. Sometimes that is a fine line but at the end of the day we can't keep it all. My feeling is, if it isn't making you feel overwhelmed or bad or weird that keep it. If it inspires you, that is key. But the moment, it feels out of place or a burden, let it go. By leting go, you make room for something else...better :) Thanks so much for being here with me. Hugs, xo

I will show you in the next video, promise xo

WOW!!! That is so exciting!! You must be in heaven :) Yeah, as a pack rat, I need to know my limits and we don't live in a huge house. I love to memory keep but at some I think, I don't need to remember everything AND if I )hopefully) live another 30 years, that is a lot of stuff to hang on to and journals to hold it all. I know, the irony of my issues w orange are not lost on me. I do enjoy a good pumpkin and autumn leaves but don't ask me to wear anything orange LOL!

Yay! Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it. There is an 86 year old woman who lives inside my head that loves a corny phrase ;)

That is very sweet of you! Thank you! Email sent :)

Awwwww, thank you Sandi! This means a lot to me. Yes, we certainly are. No, we would never talk this way to friends...it's crazy that we do it to yourselves. Yes, in the end I was too hard on myself and I ended up using the papers and enjoyed doing so ;) I am so happy that you found this video from last year and no worries...it's all still very relevant. I am thrilled to have you here :)

Ooooooh that is interesting! I think brown gets a bad rap bc it is a very rich and luxurious colour. It is calming and does bring us a sense of calm and peace. I have to admit, I wouldn't decorate w it and I most likely wouldn't wear brown but maybe I need to rethink my attitude towards this colour. I don't get outside as much as I should either. I had better hurry up bc it is going to be winter soon LOL!! You are very welcome! I am glad you liked the, I hope they are fun for you. OMG! Paint chips are the BEST!! Hugs xo

Awwwww, thank you! That is very kind of you. We took colour theory too and it was fascinating. Right now my colour is red but I lean heavy on purple or turquoise as well. I struggle w orange as I mentioned but I do incorporate in many ways in my day. I have an orange water bottle that I use to remind me of the glory of orange LOL! Thank YOU for watching and being here. Yes, the response has been good and ill do more of these colour videos for sure :)

Awwww, thank you Sandi!! I will for sure. I should look around and see if there is a colour course out there that I could take to refresh what I learned in college and read on the internet. It is so much fun and VERY interesting. Colour effects so much of our lives. It makes me sad just how much live live their lives in greys and beiges. It's not good for the soul. Have a great week!! xo

@@ilaandalice what about the people that Only wear black always. ? You can tell so much about someone by what that wear can’t you?

I had a boss once who wore black everything. Even her pj's were black. I think she thought it made her look sophisticated and "rich". It is fascinating what people are attracted to and why. If you saw me on the street you would think I got dressed in a dark room and had no sense of style. It is one thing I have let go bc I work at home. BUT! I have been thinking a lot about this. I went to fashion school and spent the majority of my life enjoying clothing and expressing myself that way. I need to get back at it. I just hate how the fit in clothing now is so poor. Anyhow, I have been thinking about what colours I would like to wear. Definitely not orange LOL!

@@ilaandalice my ex daughter in law wears black All the time. All black always. And she wonders why people never talk to her like they do me., It’s because she appears to be unapproachable, which I told her and apparently she wants to be that way. Urgh. Lol

Hmmmmm, you know what they say, be careful what you wish for ;) If that is what she puts out there....

That is veeeeeeery interesting! I think you are the first person to tell me that they don't like blue. Fascinating!! Do you have any clues as to why?? I am all over reds and pinks too. Now black...yes. It's mysterious and deep and very enchanting. What's not to love??? Thank you for your kind words and support. Ill will do more of these xo

@@ilaandalice the only things I can think of is that we painted our bedroom blue in our house we lived in as well as the bathroom and after 15 years I got tired of it. Now, we’ve been in our custom built home and the only thing that is blue is our son’s old bedroom. We plan to have our carpeting redone soon. The blue will be gone ☺️

Awwwww thank you! That is very sweet and kind of you. Glad you like them :)

Thanks so much! 😊 It's getting so close now!!

Thank you!! Oh yes! I hadn't thought of that but you are right. LOVE his movies :)

Very kind, thank you :)

That is a resounding endorsement, thank you! It is a spiral binding machine. This is a 1;2 pitch machine. I bought mine about 10 years ago from an office supply place and it was about $450 way back then. When I bought mine, there weren't any for hobbyists so I have to pay a lot of money. W R Memory Keepers has a domestic one that is about $100-120 I think. Hope that helps!

Thanks so much!

Thank you!!!

Awwww, thank you Nancy!! I am grateful for the two of you and your ongoing support. You are very sweet to me and it means the world!! Hugs xo

Awww, thank you!! I am really glad you found it helpful. Yes, exactly...there is no rule that says you have to keep it as it is. Thank YOU for being here w me xo
