Kathrine, in case nobody has told you.. you are enough! We all love you ❤️ thank you for all you do!
I was going to say the exact same thing. Love you Kat & respect the awesome person that you are! 🥰
Yes, thank you for telling her that. Katherine, you make this world a much better place. Thank you
I love this part of your video. I know you don’t really know me, but it’s still so nice to hear. I felt like you were a bit emotional at the end of this video. I’m so glad you’re realistic about cleaning your home and spending time with your children.
Soooooooo true!
i love that she always says "you are enough" more times than none it makes my day i love her and her videos💜
Love that saying “if it’s not dirty enough to slow you down then it’s clean enough”. I think I’ll keep that in mind when I’m overwhelmed by my house. ❤️❤️❤️
Yeah I like that.
That's a keeper phrase actually.
I love that phrase. Here is some advice my Mom gave me when I was a young mother overwhelmed with keeping up with my house. She said when the entire room feels overwhelming, just start in a corner and work your way out. This advice has helped me through many overwhelming situations, not just cleaning my house. ❤️
That is a perfect saying!
My sister had a small sign years ago. It said.... My house is clean enough to be healthy and dirty enough to be happy.
Kathryn, thank you for helping me see that I'm not a failure for having a cluttered house. Your quote, "If its not dirty enough to slow you down, it's clean enough" really hit home. I have 5 year old twin boys, a 13 year old daughter, a husband who works a lot, and I just transitioned to a new position working from home. I feel like I should be able to get more done now that I'm home, but I'm quickly seeing that's not the case. We are all busy and I try to not loose sight of what's important...my kids and watching them grow. The mess will always be there but the kids won't.
For the fridge baking soda: once it is “expired” and no longer absorbing odor, you could still use it for scrubbing your sink (just for abrasion) or keep the jar near your stove in case of a grease fire.
Great idea! Have an awesome day!
Right, would be wasteful to throw it away!
@@DoItOnaDime ty sooo much for an amazing video again
@@DoItOnaDime Hello can you do a video on Borax I use it an it works great. Also instead of Comet I use Bar Keepers Firend and it's GREAT 👍 thank you and have you good day 😊
Such a good reminder!!
I was just talking to my sister about the new O'Cedar system a few weeks ago. She's had the original one for quite some time, and changes her water out constantly, because she cleans up after 3 big dogs and a cat...but she can't afford to buy the new system with the clean water reservoir. I can't wait to tell her about the little trash can insert idea! She will be so excited! Thanks for that hack, lovely lady! And thank you for all that you share with us...especially telling us 'You are enough!' I always need to hear that! ❤❤❤
Yes, we she doesn't put a new video because life happens, I review on of her pass ones to hear her " You are Enough ".
Katherine can you give us a good source for the Oceader original spin mop heads? Wish Dollar Tree or DG carried them! Mine are on their last legs....
@@jimcandykollath8425 they have a head for the stick that has many different heads. One being a broom, an angle broom, a mop, a duster mop, and etcetera.
Ppl by
I couldn't wait to tell my husband about this hack. He has the original O' Cedar and loves it.
Honestly, Kathryn, you're the only person who can do a cleaning video of a toilet and still make it look good! You're also the only person who can make me look around my messy house and think oh yea I can do this! God bless you Girl, each one of your videos brings some sunshine into so many lives, my life for sure! Love and hugs from me and my two little mess monsters in ATL! (Too many exclamation marks, right? lol!)
Kathryn, you are so real! Thank you for always saying “You are enough.” It really helps in these complicated war and pandemic times!!
I’m part of the Take Your House Back on Facebook. 🙋♀️ 🦋 here! I’ve decluttered a whole lot. Now I’m in the organizing phase - which means, I’m also in the cleaning phase too. It will be my 1 year anniversary on May 1.
I love your videos! Thank you so much for contributing positivity TO so many of our lives!
You’re enough too, Kathryn!
Leslie ♥️
As a mom of four, I love to see the clips where the kids are there. That's what my cleaning looks like every day! I love that you reminded us that it's ok to be "clean enough" and not to expect perfection at all times. It's very unrealistic to expect a perfectly clean house all the time and it sets us up for feeling like permanent failures. I agree that the we need to keep that perspective and celebrate what we ARE doing and focus less on what we haven't done . . .yet. We will get to those things when we can. ♥️
You hit the nail on the head-it’s enough. We sent out oldest at 18 to school and living in his own apartment 4 weeks ago-and our youngest is a junior in high school. It goes too fast- and it hurts. So don’t worry so much about cleaning-be present for your family. Once it changes it changes forever 💔💛
Thank you! I needed to hear this! I was literally just getting frustrated because my 2 toddlers just dumped out all their toys in 3 different rooms in a matter of 5 minutes and I was starting to feel really overwhelmed! But I feel bad because I feel like I’m constantly cleaning and not spending enough time with them 💔
Amy
You said that quite well. I thought I needed to keep my house like my mother did.
Wish I’d heard your advice when young and not be so frustrated.
Be present for your children. Best thing ever said.
@@gracieg5849 trust me-I wish I would’ve “gotten” it along time ago
Aww hun I know the hurt. My 2 oldest are now in college Not home our little 9yo is feeling the adjustment to. Huge hugs
OMG! Had to stop watching to tell you that this O’Cedar mop hack May save my life! I’ve been wanting to upgrade but now I won’t to!! And using a dish soap cap on Fabuloso?! Mind blown. Thank you Katherine!!
I use that on bleach and others too.
@@crybebebunny The dish cap fits on regular bleach bottles?
@@BbGun-lw5vi no I purchased a smaller bleach bottle because I don't want to drag the gallon size out to the laundry mat. I take all my mixture of powder detergents, smaller bottles of liquid detergents, softener, vinegar and bleach. The big bulky stuff I leave at home/apt. I take a bit more than needed for all my loads.
As a recent empty nester, I can tell you, the time flies! My kids remember most the moments we had together. Not how clean the house was. I so appreciate all these tips because even I still get behind with my cleaning. I always watch until the end so I can sweetly hear you say that we are all enough. I do try to remember that done is better than perfect. Thanks Katherine!
Oh my gosh! I'm an "imposter" crafter with a small cardmaking channel and I'm constantly second guessing myself and my creations. It's comforting to see established creators having those moments in their respected areas of expertise. I love your content and I've been watching you for years. Thank you so much for you kind, creative and budget friendly content. I always look forward to it.
I love your work I’m so glad I came across your comment 😊!
@@alunalovegood9703, thank you so much. You completely made my night. I can't tell you how much I appreciate that.
The message at the end! ❤ Especially when you have a chronic illness (MS) and you have to pick and choose what you juggle. Sometimes that means parenting takes precedence over prettying when it comes to housework. I always appreciate it extra when I see other people being real about this because it can be a struggle.
Remember to delegate! Your kids need to learn how to keep house too, and they can do alot of what you sometimes can't. Don't be a martyr or a victim about it, and they won't resent it. You are enough, and so are they! Your attitude sets the tone at home, whatever it is.
Yessss, from another Warrior 🧡…definitely need to choose battles wisely. It can be so so hard. 🙏🎗🙏 We get done what needs to get done! 🙏🐢🏆
I have MS and no kids. I think people should loan a few my way to help me clean…ha!
I absolutely love how real you are. You never give the excuse that you are a Mom of two boys for why your house gets in disarray. One CZcamsr in particular has to explain how she has three little girls that create messes in her house. But you are real and so personable. I love your channel.
Kathrine I understand how you feel. Your videos have really helped me and have inspired me to clean my house. My best friend gave words of wisdom that really helped me. He said, “ your house is not messy it’s just lived in”. Please continue to make these amazing videos that continue to help and motivate us.😊🥰💕🙏
Oh my goodness! You have no idea how much I love you! You are awesome. I have had my cedar mop for a year, which I got because of a previous video of yours. Last week I got a coupon in the mail for the new version with the separated water tank. I had been talking about wanting to separate my clean water from the dirty.... THIS HACK IS BRILLIANT! Sometimes you need someone to point out the obvious... lol.
I also really appreciate the encouraging words about if it doesn't stop you, it's clean enough. I think that's good to remember when the never ending tasks of house cleaning seem overwhelming. You are so wise, as always! Thank you!!
I have used the "febreeze" knock off for 5 years now. I take care of parents (94 & 92). Their house smells like old people some days and this helps. I also use the oxy knock off instead of bleach. I am going to buy the mason jar flower lids and make my own fridge and freezer deodorizers. Thank you for the reminder each time that I am enough ❤️
You are great human being.
My heart goes out to you, girl! I’m a caregiver to my dad (along with my mom and brother) and it’s not always easy. You’re a wonderful daughter! Your parents are blessed to have you!
@@paigeschmidt1506 thank you. I know you understand
@@corinnemontgomery8325
I read your comments. It's great that you take care of your parents. You are a good daughter by doing that and giving back. Please never forget that these moments are ones you can never get back.
Just remember to love through all the hard times and frustration.
Good times too!
I was my Dad's caregiver and he recently went to go be with the good Lord Jesus Christ. God rest his soul.
Please don't ever feel bad or pushy for advocating for your parents. You are the best advocate for them because you *know* them.
They told us that Dad died of covid, but the death certificate, (when we finally got it) said natural causes, which makes waaaayyy more sense anyway. I always doubted that he had covid-19 and it just didn't add up.
Anything you want to know about your parents or about their life or about yourself, ask them right now if they are in mind to tell you, if not, just love and care anyway and make peace with knowing that some things you won't know, until you go be with God.
Please know that God loves you and your parents and that He wants Heaven for us all, but we have to repent and accept Jesus Christ and obey him in order to get there. It's called having salvation. We must follow Acts 2:38, that's the scripture in the Bible that gives us instructions for salvation.
In Jesus name, receive salvation and your parents too.❤️❤️❤️
@@paigeschmidt1506
God bless you. Keep going strong and receive salvation from the Lord Jesus Christ. Instructions are given in the Bible in the scripture Acts 2:38. That's the *only* way that we'll make it.
I was Daddy's caregiver until he went with Jesus just recently.
Forgive and receive forgiveness right now.
Love, literally, like you never have before. Time is too precious.
Take time to do what you want to do for your Dad now. Don't wait.
Enjoy your family and love even more.
I’ve been watching you for a long time! I love the way you explain things. Thanks for your words at the end of the video and helping us feel like we’re enough! Means so much 💕
I agree Jessica , Catherine’s focus on being enough is her trade mark 💕
I just left a comment regarding what you said. Felt it today. I really needed to hear that.
Agreed, first time i heard that, i teared up.
I agree! Those word and your smile sure can be just what's needed. I still tear up.
I just want to say, I've been watching your videos for almost two years now and every time I hear you end your videos I cry. I've struggled with my mental health my whole life and hearing you say it feels so sincere 😭 thank you for all your tips, tricks, and sharing your life with us through CZcams. And thank you for reminding me, each time, that I am enough. ❤️
I just love how real you are. If nobody has told you today, you are enough.
The large glass surface cleaning hack with a Swiffer is what I use on the outside of my non-opening windows too. Especially for windows that have the basement window alcove under it that you could fall into. A Swiffer of the dollar store mops like it do wonders.
A trick to know if the windows are really clean is to clean horizontally on one side and vertically on the other side that way you know which one still has streaks that need attention.
That's a really clever idea, thanks for sharing!
Ah, I teared up. The best part of every video is you loving your husband and children!! Yes, you are a great decorator, and organizer, and I appreciate your cleaning tips. They make cleaning a lot more enjoyable. But, what's better, more important than love ❤❤ You are more than enough!!
I appreciate your positivity! I have a massage therapy business and have tons of positive affirmations and quotes hanging down from my ceiling that are like thought bubbles so as clients come in or when they leave they are walking right under or even into some of these thoughts...and so many just LOVE them. It's what we all need now. So I appreciate your effort to uplift. Keep it up Sweet Sister. :)
Aww! That hug at the end made me cry! What a sweet mama you are 💕 those boys are blessed to have you
Love how you mention doing the best you can. I have 3 girls, two are almost 15 and a 4 year old. I have been homeschooling since my oldest two started Kindergarten. I get so overwhelmed cause we full time live/school/work in our house it’s not always the neatest. But it is usually as neat as we need it for every day life. Love all your tips!
I've never wanted to cry while watching a cleaning video. Thanks for all the tips and tricks to try but also for the real, raw advice. Thank you Katherine!
Really needed this today. I’m so overwhelmed. Piles everywhere. Omg I’m crying!! I went back to work on the overnight shift. Works better for me to work nights in my household. Been so tired with the adjustment that my house is out of control. Thank you so much for all the tips you’ve given us over time. Love love love you. One of these days I’m gonna find someone who can do my pantry laundry room like yours so I don’t have goods in my floor. lol and still crying. Thank you honey
The nicest thing about your content is it's realistic, we don't live in Pinterest moments, we LIVE in houses with real people and pets. It gets messy and dirty. I live with 4 adults and 3 dogs and have what I call a 24-hour kitchen, I've made my peace with cleaning it for the last time when I retire for the evening knowing that the "night shift" will come in and fix something to eat, it's life. The people are more important than the mess or dirt... Love your videos I love trying new items at the dollar store. Thanks so much
Just love your channel! You are so creative and your positivity during these wild COVID times is so refreshing. I recently delivered my son, 7 wks ago, and you’ve given us such great ideas for cleaning and organizing our home and his nursery. Our kids love tuning into your videos every week. Our dollar tree, like many others said, is not at all stocked like yours, but you’ve been an excellent resource for us, and we love you and your channel! God bless and keep making great videos!
Congrats on baby boy!! Huge hugs to you.
@@DoItOnaDime thank you Katherine. We started a big purge & ran out of steam mid way & now the house is wrecked. I needed your encouragement today.
As someone with ADHD/autism, my executive functioning is, well, dysfunctional, and I have long lived on the motto of "clean enough; i can get to it later." I don't know something about hearing you, someone with a wider audience than me, and someone I respect, say the same thing...feels good
Love that message about your own personal house not being all tidy every minute of the day - it’s sooo easy to get down on myself for not having it together
Love her, so honest, simple and makes you feel she is for real, not perfect. Thanks.
I really needed to hear that today. After having a sinus infection then covid in January I've struggled to regain my full energy. I got behind on the house cleaning while I was sick and I can't seem to get ahead of it. Thanks again!
Don't ever feel guilty about how untidy or unclean your house might be - nobody's house looks like a magazine cover, even the most popular CZcamsrs and TikTok-ers who promote home organization/cleaning! We are all doing our best, and if we're happy with our homes, that's all that matters!
Most people start feeling guilty the progress to not happy.
Mad respect for the honesty sweetie. I feel like sometimes people just enjoy making someone feel bad about not having a perfect life. I clean the way my Grandma did. One day a week I clean one room thoroughly and then straighten the others. Like Monday will be the kitchen and laundry room. Tuesday, the living room etc. It saves me being exhausted and still makes sure I'm not ashamed to have guests. Thanks for the great hacks as always
My house used to be clean and organized like yours. Life happened and chronic illness kicked in for several members of my family. They’ve never once said “Remember how clean and organized our house was?” They remember the fun times we’ve shared together. You can clean up things when it’s convenient but you cannot replace that time when one of your children wants to just sit and talk. That time is precious and limited. Take it from me who has been a super cleaner most of my adult life. You aren’t going to take your labeled cabinets with you or the smell of a freshly cleaned house. You will take with you the memories and love that you shared.❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh my I needed to see this comment.🥺 I have a 10 year old and he is growing so fast. I will never get this time back once it's gone. You're right , 5 years from now, no one will remember how clean my home was kept. I've got to stop being so uptight about cleanliness. I will never get back these years once they're gone and sweeping and organizing are not as important as memories made.
Thank you stranger
@@KaylaNicK you’re welcome. Cherish your time together. You don’t get it back.
My husband had to go on an emergency deployment, because of the Ukraine situation. I’m at home with a 5,3,1 year old, and I was loving all the tips but needed to hear that it’s ok for my house to not be perfect right now. Too much clutter gives me anxiety, but shoving things behind closed doors until I can deal with it really helps. And seriously the end of your videos makes me cry every time
Sending love to you! I can’t imagine how difficult that must be. Do what you need to do to get by, shoving things in closets works for me sometimes too lol I feel you on the anxiety. Bless your family and your husband for his service ♥️
Praying for your husband and everyone involved to help defend Ukraine. Just do whats best for you. we all have those seasons in life where you're too busy to keep things up and super clean. I hope your husband can come home soon.
Thank you for your support of our military and your sacrifice that makes it possible for your husband to serve. I pray for his safety and your protection (Psalm 91 is a good example, and you can personalize it to your situation and language comfort. I'm sure God is okay with that, because He knows your heart, and that's what He wants--not rituals or empty rote!). Thank your husband and yourself for me!
Prayers for your husband and thank him for serving for me. Yes, this is time for you to spend with your kids as they need you now more than ever. Stuff can wait!!! Hugs to you❤️
I'm absolutely gonna be using the ocedar clean bucket hack! Ive been thinking about getting the new one but this is way better than spending almost $50! Thank you Kathryn for looking out for us!!!❤
Yes me too! I was going to get the iMop system, but not now because I'd rather use a string mop.
I LOVE my o’ cedar mop & bucket! Have had it for several yrs & it’s perfect for me since I have RA.
Katherine, I LOVE LOVE all your advice, hacks, & your channel!! I’m so happy you tell us the truth about what we can buy at Dollar Tree that really says us money!! I need motivation so bad!! That’s my big problem! I’m retired bc of RA & other health issues & it’s all made me depressed w little or no interest in anything & we all know when our home is clean & organized we can look around & feel much better about it!! I need to see more of your videos to motivate me! Thank you thank you a million times for what you do!! I thoroughly enjoy each & everyone of your videos & your sweet & handsome sons that are usually in your videos helping!! Such sweet boys & Charlie too! You have encouraged me a lot but I think if you had more videos per week that would encourage & motivate me even more!! I love how you always have the best hacks! Always sharing things w us that actually make cleaning easier & fun to do! I love you & your channel so very much Katherine!! I do believe God is using you to do his work! God bless you!!sending you & your family lots of love, big hugs & many prayers!! Love you so very much!! One of your #1 fans from North Carolina!!
♥️♥️♥️🥰🥰🥰🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
loved the personal story you shared about feeling like your house is not organized enough to be considered an influencer.. it reminds each of us that we are only human and its not possible to have it all put together all the time. I have the same feeling at times where I start doubting myself and your story seemed so relatable
Hey Katherine, I love your videos and I've been a fan for years. Just a heads up, fabuloso isn't a disinfectant. It is a great multipurpose cleaner but if your intention is to kills germs it's not going to do that. I'm not just pulling this out of nowhere. It states this on their website "It's a great deodorizing multi-surface cleaner. The regular fabuloso doesn't sanitize or disinfect, but there are other fabuloso products for that". If you want a product from this brand that does, they have the Complete line that does disinfect and kills bacteria and viruses. Sorry for the criticism, I just figured you would probably want to know and your viewers should know as well since your video claims it does.
Caitlin B
Your comment about Fabuloso was NOT criticism, but a VERY helpful FYI. I wasn’t even aware it had a disinfectant item. Thank you for sharing. Take care.
@@gailmiller6333 You too!
I was thinking the same thing! I’m glad you mentioned it because I’m sure there are tons of people that don’t realize that it’s not a disinfectant. I didn’t realize until I actually started reading the bottle not long ago. 🥰
I came here to say this too because it’s important to know if you’re actually disinfecting or not!
@@melissamosey4606 It really is with everything going on. At my work, we had it to clean the floors and that's when I first realized it. I am glad they make one that does disinfect though.
Every day may not be good, but there is something good in every day. Never stop believing in hope because miracles happen every day. Have a Beautiful and Blessed day and week. See you next video.
Thank you Kathryn ❤️❤️ I really needed to hear it!! Binge watching cleaning and organisational videos make you feel guilty and anxious about not being enough, not cleaning enough which plays tricks on your mind and mental status. So, simply thanks for reminding us we are only humans and we can only do what we can do!!
You're a genuine positive person and I appreciate you being there for us.
Thank you so much for your “It’s clean enough” message today. I needed it! 💕
So glad you remind us that not everyone’s home is perfect…even the CZcams moms! ❤️
Love the "If it doesn't look dirty ...: understandable about your doubt, shows your humbleness and integrity about your mission. Look at yourself in the mirror and say I'm more than enough 😁 also so appreciate your 'home keeping ' skills and enthusiasm. A home keeper is about family and love, respect to your husband. Way to go ! 👏
Thank you for all of your helpful videos! You are enough, as well. Thank you for keeping it real and showing us that a home can be messy but it’s still full of love. The most important thing is for your family to know that you love them!
I really don't like to use a lot of chemical cleaners in my home. I basically stick to baking soda & white vinegar for cleaning. Then I invested in Norwex cloths for the windows/mirrors-just using water & NO STREAKS any more! But always love your refreshing spirit & encouragement to take care of our homes!
Though chemical cleaners can save time, they are toxic for our pets. (Same goes for air fresheners, candles, incense, and essential oils). I try to stay with steam, vinegar and baking soda.
I have a question; I heard only good things about cleaning with vinegar but, Is the vinegar smell lingering afterwords??
I too love your comment, "If it's not dirty enough to slow you down then it's clean enough!" I want to cross stitch it! Growing up, my every Saturday chore was to dust whole house. When I became keeper of my own home, I decided that dust really protects the furniture & best not to disturb so often! Well, of course, there is a balance. I join the chorus of those who love & appreciate & admire all you share & do. Time with the kiddos ( & hubby) ALWAYS comes 1st.💕
You are amazing, uplifting, kind. I can see the goodness in you and the glorious light you emit. God Bless you sweetie!❤
One great tip I got from Tik Tok was for under cabinets (especially sink cabinets). A landlord was showing how to protect sink cabinets from water damage in rentals, but it works so well to make them easy to wipe down and keep clean! He used peel and stick vinyl tiles in sink base cabinets to make them water resistant in case the sink leaks. Simply clean the bottom of your cabinet really well, lay them out like you would for a floor, install, then caulk around the edges! It worked SO WELL and I have done our large kitchen sink cabinet and two vanities with one box of tile!
I have that spin mop as well, love it! I have a couple of extra refill pads that I use to clean the baseboards and walls. So much easier on my 71 year old back, lol
As always love comes pouring whenever I watch your videos ❤️ today's highlight was "if it's not dirty enough to slow you down then it's clean enough" loved this. Thank you Kathryn for such helpful tips
Katherine, you are one of just a handful who are REAL and actually show us that your home is like ours.
Thank you for the positive vibes! We spend so much time beating ourselves up for not being perfect in other people's eyes.
Thank you for all that YOU do girl! This touched my heart today ♥️
Putting the scent needs in the fabric sheet is a great tip! Also, the wedding section has mini organza draw string bags you could put them in for a nice visual touch.
This is one of my new favorite videos of you, the tricks are great. But actually, what touched me the most was you sharing real life at the end. Sometimes we forget that, cool youtubers like yourself, can be struggling with the same issue than we. Kate, if nobody have told YOU today: you are enough :)
We have been spending a lot of money at the dollar tree, and we love it! Thank you so much KATHERINE!
Cleaning the mirror with the Swiffer is genius! I always climb on my countertop to get up there. Definitely using that tip. Thank you, Katherine!
Clicked on this so fast lol. Love your tips
Katherine,
Thanks for always being real with your DIOAD family...I ❤️ that about you!!
Your videos motivate me to organize and clean.. and just get out of my depression! It's such a delight watching your enthusiast it is so contagious... thank you for making me smile today😀🌹🌹🌹🌹 from texas
Thank you Kathryn for these tips and tricks. I especially love the mirror cleaning hack and the DIY baking soda fridge deodorizer. I really needed to hear that about getting overwhelmed about cleaning my house. I've been so stressed because it seems like everything is everywhere and I don't know where to start. 🤯 I'm just going to take it one room and one day at a time and do my best.👍🏾❤
I run around more than 8 hours a day. Get mad at my husband when he gets home and his day is done. I start my day at 4:50 am and still going till about 10 pm. I do take breaks here and there, but my home never looks as clean as Our Beloved Katherine's home. In the sense of clean and organized. I am a "stay at home wife & mommmmmmy." That's what my children tend to call me Mommmmmy, not just mom.🤙 😜🙃 My husband works 12 to 16 hours days/ 6 days a week sometimes 8 days a week. He is a very hard worker and his work is labor intense. He often offers to help. I get mad at him if he even thinks of using the microwave, cooking is my job so, I'll put the food items in the microwave for him. So the poor guy can't win. When I got chronicle sick everyone started to help me with our home, I stupidity felt uncomfortable and unnecessary. So my family ask if it's OK to help with anything so that they don't take over my job.
Katherine you are amazing. In days that chemo and other things are hard, and I feel like I'm good for nothing, you telling me I'm enough helps more than you will ever know. My house is pretty much a disaster. But I'm working on it. I just got behind in it after months of not being able to do things. Ty for always having great ideas. 🥰
So glad you're here!
I just love your empowering and kind message in the end "My friend, you are enough ". Thanks!
What you shared in the second part of the video almost made me tear up. I feel like that often too. Thank you for your encouragement and for keeping it real and relatable. Thank you for being vulnerable and honest. Thank you for always reminding us that we are enough. You are too, Kathryn. You are more than enough - you’re super duper amazing! ❤🤗
I bought my O Cedar Mop based on your recommendation a few years ago and I love it!! I got mine at Costco and it came with two extra mop heads. I have used so many of your cleaning and organizing tips. Thank you for sharing! 😄
I got an O'Cedar mop this year. I loved it so much that I ordered one for my mom. I love your videos. Thank you for always bringing a smile to my day.
You are so happy and positive ❤
While I don't want anyone to struggle, I appreciate hearing about other people's worries and anxieties. All anxiety can be unrational, so hearing about it makes me feel more normal when I get overwhelmed with things that I know aren't big things, but feel big at the time.
Kathryn, I really LIKE you💜 you are so relatable, you make me tear up. I always wait for the part, “you are enough”. I love that. Thank you, you are more than enough for us.
I had to take a entire day to sleep from being run down you are enuf and so am I dagnabit! Even if I have to sleep an entire day once every six months we are worth it and always great enuf! God bless
You’re a wonderful Mom and wife! I love your energy and enthusiasm! Thanks for all of your valuable lessons!
Awe! ❤ What a loving mama. Happy Mother's Day!! You deserve a wonderful happy day along with your beautiful family. God bless y'all! ❤
These tips are fantastic!!! Love the swiffer window cleaning trick!!! My dollar tree offering: in the automotive cleaning area they have blue and yellow stubbley gloves that are actually microfiber material for washing cars. I dampen those and use them to clean everything. They are great for countertops, tubs, floors, window seals, walls, doors, you name it. You can use any kind of cleaner then throw them in the wash.
I use the gloves as well!!
i use those for the interior of my car. i've had to wipe up a spilled water bottle more than once and they're great at getting everything dry.
Thank you
MIND BLOWN🤯Using the swiffer to clean mirrors and windows! I absolutely LOVE you and your video's. If no one has told you today....YOU ARE ENOUGH! You are amazing!
Thanks for being REAL! So appreciate all you tips and tricks.
The dish soap lid on my fabuloso hack is 100% mind blowing! I'm about to use up a soap bottle just so I can do that TODAY!!!!
It makes a huge difference!
You’re awesome! Love your transparency and great tips ❤️I’m a mom of two and I also get
Overwhelmed and have to remember to just breathe and enjoy the ride. Kids grow so fast…like you said if the mess isn’t enough to slow you down then it’s clean enough. Today I decluttered two cabinets and it felt amazing. Thanks for reminding us of what really matters. God bless you and your family.
I always love your videos but the best parts about them for me are when your family is around...your boys are so sweet and getting so big and I love your relationship with your husband. You are good enough and more, I was very depressed this week for some reason but there is a reason I try to only watch positive things and that is to get me out of whatever funk I may be in. Your positive attitude and loving words always pick me up.
Thank you!
Thank you Katherine for keeping it real!! No ones house is completely clean and organized!! I think you are doing a great job balancing home, and family!! You diffinately are enough!!
How do you deal with your husband or kids when they don't want to clean? I need some suggestions.
Lol! Boy, do I feel ya on that one! Go on strike! See how they like not having any dishes clean when they want to make a bowl of cereal or something else to eat, or how they like it when they don't have any clean clothes to wear, or how they like having to take a shower or use the bathroom in a dirty bathroom! Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Short of having an absolute hairy conniption fit (yep, I'm from the south, lol), and making them think you're a total b!+@h, I think the best thing to do is make them responsible for their own stuff...make them do their own laundry, wash their own dishes, clean their bathrooms, etc. This takes a lot of the burden of cleaning off of you and makes it much easier. Good luck!
I'm 69 years old and sure wish I had the energy and git to it like you do Kathryn. You are enough and loved! Wished I could get my apartment organized like you do your home.
Ive never heard anyone with such a big smile in her voice like Kathryn. Thanks 😊
I love that you say “Fabuloso”the correct way! Gracias amiga!
I need to tell you the best advice my mom gave me 23 years ago...spend every moment with your children that you can. They will be gone in an instant. I'm glad I found you!
You are such a sweetheart. Thanks for keeping it real. Life can get really stressful especially with kids. Everyone could use a little encouragement now and then, and it may seem that others have it all put together, but we’re all in the same boat. Thanks for the reminder and know that you too are enough.
Hi Kathryn, thank you so much for your message at the end! It’s so hard to feel that you are happy enough or good enough. I loved that glass cleaning trick that you showed with the Swiffer! I can’t wait to try that and show my kids that as well so that they feel empowered to do things! Thank you for showing us your money and time-saving tricks and tips!
Thanks for your encouragement at the end! We appreciate you being “real” and bringing joy!
I must say, I am a new subscriber and I can’t tell u how pleasant, kind, humble and real I think u are. I teared up just watching u tear up in that video. I, just like many here, think u are simply awesome. We are all human and we all have our bad days. God bless you and your beautiful family!!!
I just love you!! I’ve been working from home since the pandemic and have two small children. Most days it’s just “get through the day and get dinner on the table” kind of day. I constantly feel guilty for not having a tidy home. My mental health has been struggling because of it. But I will have plenty of time to have a tidy home once my kids are all grown up…keep trying to tell myself that they would rather have a present mom then a clean house! Thank you for the positivity you put into your videos!!!
I appreciate your honesty and realness. In this social media driven world, it is a rarity. Thank you for making it ok to not be perfect.
Girl please, Catherine-you know that you are an influencer and thousands of people look up to you. Just look at your subscriber base!
If your local news is coming to your house then you know that you doing something right!
People only _wish_ they could be as half as you so don't get down on your self.
Plus, you're educated and you came from the working poor class on a teacher's salary, and look where you are now, so DO NOT get down or insecure about yourself!!
Much love. ⭐❤️👏
Kathrine, I’ve watched your videos for years and just today I had this thought “do they really live in that house or is that a sound stage?”, of course I know you really live there. It was so ironic that I had that thought just before you told us you sometime question yourself. No one would wonder if we really live in our house unless it was to wonder how do we live in our house? It’s really a clutter mess! Not unhealthy, nasty, dirty but clutter. There are always a few loads of clothes to be folded and put away, dishes to put away. Thank you for all your inspiration!!
I read somewhere that “your kids will remember the fun not the mess” and with 4 kids in 5 years I told myself that every week. I love your videos and find everything you say helpful!
Hands down that spinner mop bucket is the best mop I've ever used. It's even great for cleaning walls to get up high with not too much water
Happy day to you Catherine I just love your zeal for taking care of your home and your family and the DIY‘s and the dollar tree hacks they’re spot on! I use my old cedar mop the same way I put a bucket in the side of it for the Fabuloso cleaner and then the dirty water goes and when I ring them up out, I also use my old cedar mop to clean my paneling in my home any cleans the baseboards wonderfully cleanAnd I use a few drops of essential oils such as peppermint or tea tree oil to the Fabuloso to enhance the antibacterial properties of that product, keep up the good work young lady and you are enough! And the fact that you have a lot of self-worth you are loved and you are so important because Jesus loves you
