  • Starting daycare slowly… just 2 days a week for a few hours at a time. This boy is growing too fast!
    Thanks to Sixpenny for being so generous and sending me a couch and coffee table. You can find them here:

    Good luck with your exams and with Benji's accommodation at daycare :) It is nice to see a youtube channel of someone who works, studies and also is a mother :D I am a mother myself and I know that combining the 2 roles - full time work and career + motherhood comes with different challenges. I was previously using your study with me channel and now I am glad to see this other side of you, dealing with issues that are familiar to me too. Keep up the good work ;)

    The fact that you had to sign up for daycare before he was even born blew my mind just a little bit.

    Thanks for sharing your day! Preschool teacher here - I’ve seen parents use all sorts of labels for water bottles/bottles -- the one that’s worked best is sharpie directly on the bottle/cup, labeling both cup and whatever screw top piece so we know what bottom goes with which top. 😊

      It’s from Target! It’ll come up if you search “Moroccan Shag Tufted Area Rug Cream - Project 62” - but honestly I don’t recommend it because it sheds A LOT. I just kind of tolerate it bc I brought it all the way over from NYC & it’s big lol

    Hi ive been following ur channel for a while
    I remembered u went for eye surgery a few yrs back n noticed that you are still wearing glasses
    I intend to get eyes done too however am quite sceptical after seeing some of my friends still relying heavily on their glasses for reading watching tv driving
    What do u recommend

    • @TheStrivetoFit

    I got a lot of help through your study video, and I also sympathized with your daily life. And your cats, Candy and Ellie, were unforgettable in your video. However, I am worried and curious that Ellie is not with you right now. You can often find people asking about Ellie's current status in the comments. But you never mention Ellie. As if Ellie never existed... You may not be ready to comment on Ellie's current situation. Hopefully one day you will let us know.
