Hey there, I'm Carla and I started this channel as a creative outlet and experiment.
My goal is to create a home I feel proud of, a body I feel good in and a wardrobe I love... while inspiring you to do the same! I’m excited to share as I makeover my little L.A. abode (one room at a time), curate my style (with capsule wardrobes) and heal my body (50 pounds gone so far). Let’s upgrade our lives together...one project at a time. Excited to see where this journey takes us. Subscribe for new videos every Sunday!

I don't have a dishwasher or standard washer and dryer so I have to do things a bit differently. I love my portable washer and portable dryer. It allows me to live in an apartment and do laundry in my own unit which is such a luxury.
Nothing like waking up or returning to a fresh, clean, organized, space
so true!!
I’m actually better at straightening up my house in the evening than in the morning. But as long as I do it daily, I guess that’s what really matters.
I feel like you have the satisfaction that it was clean for a longer period of time if you do it at night 🙃 at least for me since I have a husband and kids
yes!!
This was great and soothing to watch!!! I love how your apartment had transformed these past several months and now you get to enjoy the benefits of a clutter free apartment! I’m laughing at the ending with Samson he’s the best hahahaha
you're an OG if you watched til the end hahaha samson has to get his camera time lol. thanks natasha!!!❤️❤️❤️
@@TheCarlaProject Yas girl that's me OG HAHHAHAHA. Also I usually starting writing my comments in the last 30 seconds or so, so like I saw Samson and i'm like BONUS REEL!!
Love your stove! I'm 75 and picking up and cleaning up after myself is still hard, but I'm much better. Don't worry, in a few decades you'll get it right!
What a great feeling to walk out the door knowing that you have everything done and what an even better feeling to come home to a completely clean house!! Wow. Inspiring
I was laying in my bed in this Sunday afternoon feeling super unmotivated and maybe a tad depressed. Your video inspired me to get up and start tidying my apartment along with you. Your videos always motivate me and remind me that keeping house is a great way to make me feel loved by me. Thanks for making these.
This made my morning thank you right back!!
Many years ago I found it easier to straighten up before bed. That would cut down on your morning routine. And, it feels good to wake up to neatness.
im so lazy at night shauna hahahah
Hahaha 😅 the end.... you really understand what your dog is saying... Its my sunday routine to change the bedding... It is pure selflove, so I sleep in fresh silk and I feel then that I am ready for Monday... Part of my new learned selflove is also to avoid stress in the morning, I need 1.5h to get ready and I give that time to myself... I really love your channel and you have such a wonderful voice.. really nice to watch how you get things done 😊 very motivating thank you
yessss to your pure self love actions!! inspiring to me❤️❤️❤️
Very realistic morning…sheets get changed once a week🤗
It’s fun to watch people put their homes right. We change our sheets once a week so we only need 2 sets for us, and 1 set for the guest room.
I like your apartment options for laundry.
😂 the bit with the doggy at the end. I've been binge watching your channel. I think I have a few more hours to go. I love it here! So delightful 😊 🌸
Welcome aboard!❤️❤️❤️
I do fly lady, though I fell off after a move and need to get back to it. The thing I love about it is that it builds each habit over time rather than trying to do it all at once. For me that never stuck. I have had to make adjustments to some of it because I live in the country and we have four dogs and two cats. So that means dusting and taking care of my floors have to be done way more often. I change my sheets weekly, drilled into me by my mom. I do sleep with my dog but he's a yorkie so hair isn't a issue.
One thing I saw in the video is something I have had to work on myself. So when you are doing things in the kitchen and bathroom the reason it's messy is because you aren't "cleaning along the way". So let's say you are making scrambled eggs. As you finish using the ingredients put them away. And as you are finished using each dish wash it. So as I pour the eggs into the pan I immediately take the bowl and whisk and wash them. Same for getting ready in the bathroom. I pull out anything I will be using and as I finish using each item I put it back. Not gonna lie it took me a while to create this habit because like you I just left the room when I was done doing ANYTHING. My bathroom looks like it is about the size of yours but three people share it so we have to do this. Hope this helps. Your home is coming along beautifully.
I clean as I go but it's harder with breakfast because everything is cooking at once and it all cooks pretty fast. It's pretty easy with dinner and baking.
Oh good point I really need to work on cleaning as I go. Agree though that its easier for lunch and dinner since breakfast cooks so quickly I’d definitely burn something 😂
Hi Carla - after I watched this video, I got up and vacuumed! 😄. You’re right about the struggle to finish things 100%. But it really does feel good to not have to go back and finish something later on. Thank you for the inspiration! I hope you have a great week. 🌷
thank you susan so happy to hear this!! have a lovely week too xo
We change the sheets 1 time a week. With 3 kids, 4 cat, 3 guinea pigs and 1 Syrian Hamster, I'm ready to have it done.
oh my gosh hahah full house i love it!!
@@TheCarlaProject Plus my husband.
I change my bedding once a week. I have a cat who occasionally likes to sleep in the bed so changing sheets is non-negotiable, unless I want to lie in cat hair, lol.
haha i relate... samson used to sleep in my bed and the hair was everywhere!!!
Finally I see someone wash the dishes the way I do. Water running instead of soaking them. 😊 Thanks for sharing your morning routine with us. I think starting the day out with some quick cleaning is a great way to jump start the whole day!
dishes soaking in water always grossed me out as a kid haha so now i just wash em with the running water lol thx for watching!!
I hope Samson gets you a roomba for Christmas 🥰
😂😂😂 it's the least he could do
I love coming home to a clean house. Thank-you for sharing. 🌸
Yeah, nothing feels better than heading out and knowing, when you come back, everything is in order. I love the little hanger that says "Bonjour". It is such a lovely little detail. I work in rolling shifts so my routine is a bit different. When I have the day shift, I get up really early and see, that I get ready for the day. Not much housework done since I work 12 hours shifts. But the evening before, I have everything ready and orderly already so I can leave without thinking about it. When I have the night shift, I get up in the morning, do, whatever needs to be done (laundery and so on) and see to it, that I am done until noon(ish), so I know, I can either sleep for a few hours again or relax. If I have two night shifts in a row, when I get up between night shifts, I see to it, that there is nothing lying around and all the dishes are in the dishwasher or in the closets and maybe I do one or two little tihngs. The days I am off duty I do the cleaning and other tasks that take longer
thank you i love that little bonjour sign too...your home sounds lovely xo
@@TheCarlaProject Thank you, but honestly, I'm only just starting. I don't live alone, but by now, I'm dragging my husband along.
Wow! I am really impressed by your desire and efforts to get into the habits of having a clean house. It's so rewarding and mind calming to live in and come back to a tidy and clean home. It's a habit that took me almost 2 years to master, and I can't see myself doing otherwise or without. Even on periods where life is hectic and I don't have much time, the house remains tidy because everything has a place to go back to and my routines are automatic. I don't even have to think about them. For me, that's peace of mind 😌
Super inspiring! That’s my goal! Even if it takes two years I’m excited to have that kind of home one day🙏🏾😍❤️
What I get from your vlog is an experience of mindful cleaning. Having a plan and being intentional helps to make all the cleaning tasks more satisfying. I think it's always surprising how long it takes however the results speak for themselves. I'm loving your journey and am inspired to continue mine. Thank you.
yes keep going it gets better and better!!
Hi Carla! It's so good to see you! I change my sheets 1time per week. Thank you for all of the inspiration! Have a great day!❤🙏🏼
Hi Karla, Thanks for watching!!❤️
You are going to be the best declutter and organization person on your videos.
yes!! thank you!❤️
Hello, thank you for your video! I really don't know about top loading washing machines, but in front loading ones I got advised not to use lemon juice or vinegar, since it can eat away on the rubber inside. Aaaaand my personal tip: always change the room. You go to the toilet? Stash some item away. You get a glass of water? Put something back on the shelf. It makes a difference to the length of tidying left to do if every time you do ONE thing! I change the sheets every 2 weeks, but if the kids leave their marks on them, I will change them more often. You have to remember that you don't have so much laundry every day (I do a full load per day for a family of four), so not every day has that much laundry. Not every day is your dog food prep day. See it this way: our ancestors didn't have a "job" but we're busy with food and work around their home/cave/clothes all of their time. Keep it up, you have achieved so much! Be proud of yourself! Greetings from Luxembourg
Oh I’ve been doing this lately!! Those little things add up thx love!💕
I love your apartment. It is much more home feeling than apartments I see on utube.
Love watching your videos! I love how realistic you are and how your apartment looks like an average apartment (like mine). Also, can I just say how naturally beautiful you are, I loved watching you do your makeup. Keep up the hard work, the apartment is looking great!
Thank you thank you thank you so sweet😍
Samson's guilty look when you are cleaning up his fur...poor little guy. I absolutely love the transformation of your apartment it is so cozy and comfortable. I do all of my laundry every Monday and change my sheets but I'm lucky enough to have a laundry space which makes it easier for me since I don't have to move it around...even though it is in the super hot and humid garage. I live in Florida :(
Love your view from the bedroom window but can't help but think of the spider hotels there 😂 😂 😂 Growing up, we lived in a house for a short time that had huge trees outside the window and one morning quite early, I was coming into the living room... my mom had fallen asleep there the night before and as I was walking, I saw this piece of newspaper moving and freaked out thinking it was a mouse or something. I said in a low voice, "Mom, this newspaper is moving" and I said it in such a low voice that my mom knew immediately and jumped up from a dead sleep. She ripped up the newspaper and saw a HUGE fox spider. It was massive and still gives me chills thinking about it. Suffice to say, that was the first of many visits from spiders and we moved shortly thereafter.
girrrrrl why you got me googling fox spider and scaring myself 😂😂😂
@@TheCarlaProject Oh no, I'm so sorry! LOL. Well, if you haven't experienced any spider issues maybe the spiders don't like the trees outside of your window...
I love your morning cleaning routine! Sounds relaxing :)
*listening to the video*
Carla: "Gave up coffee."
Me: Oh no. That is like giving up sunshine. I'm glad its been reinstated.
Carla: "has to be decaf"
Me: oh no oh no oh no no no no noooo
I have never heard of a portable washing machine that's so cool. The windows in your bedroom are gorgeous!!!
😂😂😂 oh no no no no no that song is now stuck in my head 😂❤️
I do fresh sheets once a week, usually on sundays. I like to take a bath on sunday night and then put on clean jammies and lay down in clean sheets. It helps me chase away a bit of the end of weekend blues. (I get these pretty bad but less so since I work fully remote and don't have to commute any more)
that is so funny i'm opposite and always got the end of the week blues...working at home alone means making sure i get out of the house on weekends and treating myself to a dance class on friday nights helps ❤️
Such a productive morning! Samson is so adorable 💗 I’ve actually managed to declutter my storage cupboards, and 2 of the kids rooms! Have even decorated one of them, it feels SO GOOD! Thank you Carla for the inspiration and motivation! 😊💗✌️
ohhhh how fun!! decorating is the cherry on top after decluttering isn't it. congrats jane!!xoxo
Pro organizer here First, LOOOOOVE the relaxing music. I refuse to watch the videos with the techno pop crap! Second I’ve been doing flylady since 2008 or a variation of it and recommend it to clients. I think what you are doing is your weekly clean. A morning routine shouldn’t take 2 hours. Also. If you do the morning and evening routine you won’t be spending 20 min on dishes. If you wash sheets every day then maybe it does take 2 hours lol. Either way, your progress has been amazing to watch and can’t wait for the closet video.
thanks april! the 20 min on dishes were just from the ones used in the morning (no dishwasher) and then shower hair clothes makeup added an hour for sure plus cooking eating feeding samson...but laundry part is definitely not a daily occurrence with rolling out my machine etc. closet declutter coming sooooon!:)
Carla, you are keeping your apartment so nice and tidy especially your living room closet. I thought it would have been difficult to keep that in order. I just love how Samson just follows you around and watches what you do. He is a good dog. :-) his feelings were hurt when you left without saying goodbye. As a side note, isn't there something to be said about the feeling you have while your gone knowing that when you get back home your house is going to be all clean and fresh. I love that feeling. Great job Carla
Best feeling ever yes!! Coming back to a clean house :)
The ending was everything! 🐕
my fave part hahah
Yes!!! Love this so much! Nothing better after a long day than to come home to a clean space.
true!! thank you!❤️
I wash the sheets every two weeks unless I was sweating a bunch then once a week. My morning routine is making sure the kitchen is clean and the bathroom wipe real quick.
Those windows are also my favorite part of your home. If I went to a beach house I would expect windows like that if not better
agreed!!
What's going on, girl? People are waiting for your videos, really!!! Believe it and do it! Never stop! ❤️
New one coming will have it by this weekend🥰 thank you Kristina❤️❤️❤️
Just a tip Carla …… put a dry hand towel into your dryer and the laundry dries much quicker as it soaks up the steam. A game changer from England👋👋👋👍
ooooo i am so going to try this thanks christine!! xoxo
I have 2 cats and 3 dogs …..the shedding is real! I am loving the swifter PET sweepers…amazing!
was thinking of getting one of those!!
Wow! This felt more like 2-3 days worth of cleaning for me! Hahaha.
I'm more of a clean-as-I-go kind of person. During my bathroom routine, I use one item and put it right back without setting it down (usually). When I cook, I take out the ingredients and put them away as I finish using them.
My laundry routine is a load every 3 days. Day 1 is wash and dry. Day 2 is fold and put away. Day 3 is catch-up or rest (more like do another chore). I have a toddler and wash my husband's stuff, too, except his hockey gear, but I have chosen to have duller whites over spending the time to keep them separate. Unless we're talking about my curtains! 😜
I gifted myself a Eufy robot vacuum two years ago and a mini robot mop this year and they are some of the best things I've ever bought. Holy cow. I struggle with low energy and they are just life saving.
I loved your idea to use a cloth to catch the extra espresso grounds! What a great eat to contain a mess.
Thanks for sharing this! I'm not finished watching, but I hope you'll share what a sustainable routine would look like. There's no way I can spend 3 of my most productive morning hours not working for my job. I'm curious to hear what you'll say at the end. You comments about not leaving the mess for the evening are 100% true.
yes i can't clean like this daily i have to go to work lol but still trying out different things. your routine sounds so good!!
Well done. 🥰 Coming back to a clean home, after a day out. Just kick off your shoes and relax. Great feeling. 😍
Wish I could get myself into a good morning routine!! Congratulations!!
I love your sense of humor & energy.
Thank you so much!!🤗
We change our bedding every 2 weeks, if necessary then of course also more often, for example when someone had a fever.
My morning routine including general grooming for me, fixing and eating our breakfast, preparing lunch snacks for my daughter and getting dressed to leave the house lasts 1h 15min.
I do my cleaning in the afternoon and evening, maybe 15 -30 min each day and my partner does his bit as well, maybe also 15-30mins. Deep cleaning on the weekend is 2-3h.
sounds like a solid routine!
Hugs for Samson ! 🥰
🤗
Nothing Better them coming home to a clean House!!!
amen!!
I love that your washer has a lint trap! I wish the full size ones had that, I can only imagine how poorly mine likely drains with my long hair and all the pets!
The Samson part was great! 😂💕
My favorite part of the whole video 😂
You're apartment looks amazing!! I've been watching since the start and you have worked so hard and now you are reaping the rewards ❤ such am inspiration!!!
thank you jenn!! it really is shaping up around here!
I so enjoy watching the evolution of your apartment and how far you’ve come in your journey🤍
As for bedding, Saturdays are our linen washing days. I have littles who need them changed more often though so it feels like a daily thing around here lol
hero status for doing all that laundry!! ❤️
It looks so good… you will be so happy walking into that at the end if your day. My FlyLady morning routine takes about 30 minutes, but before I decluttered and got in the habit of cleaning up after myself throughout the day, it took a couple of hours!! It gets easier every day after the first one! (But, I do only start a load of laundry and move it to the dryer later and fold and put away later in the day. )
Dear Carla, this is soo inspiring!!! Congrats for keeping your house so clean 🥰
Thank you!! 😊
Hi, Carla. I don't have a dishwasher, either. I have found it is really hard to do the dishes consistently, too. My teen and I have made many attempts in making routines. We just now have one set of silverware per person, one cup/bowl/plate per person each day. We are responsible for keeping our sets clean. We both work on the dishes after each meal. It's a constant battle. Currently eating all three meals at home each day! Great job on your kitchen. I watched a video a while back where you had decluttered. I was shocked at how tidy it is looking now. Wow! Great work!
thank you christine i am really proud of the kitchen! and yes dishes are a constant battle!! especially eating all meals at home. bravo to you!!
Loved the video, the mood/vibe! I am currently decluttering my home and it feels so good to be on top of things and simplifying things. It’s crazy how much time we use on daily tasks, but it makes sense.
yes to all of this!!thank you!❤️
In the morning, I get up.in just enough time not to be late. I only eat breakfast sometimes when I'm off work. I'm going to try to take my meds early and get up and moving.
i've had many of those mornings myself haha
I change my bedding/linens like every other Weekend. Or let me say I try.. 😅
But what I love to do is vacuming the matrace after stripping off the linens, before putting new ones on.
hahah i relate to the "try" part of this. i'm thinking of getting a mattress protector to go under my mattress topper which is supposed to keep things even cleaner. thanks for your lovely comments!
Every Saturday (or Sunday this week) I tear my bed apart and wash the sheets first (so bed is ready for nighttime if I get behind). Once a month I wash my thin bedspread. Then I do my darks, brights, whites and lastly towels. During the week I HAVE to make my bed before leaving and I keep my morning routine super simple. My mirror gets cleaned daily with my Norwex window cloth because the steam provides the water to wash it and the bathroom gets wiped down weekly and scrubbed monthly. I clean off my area of the table and clean out my purse and work bag weekly as I am doing lesson plans and weekly school prep. Everyone else at home has their responsibilities to keep our house livable.
Idk why i want to watch u clean your house over and over again but i just do! lol. It's insane how much time i spend cleaning up after myself when i cook, and make coffee. Isave so much money doing it, it's such a great habit, but its really exhausting the clean up after and def lowers my life energy and ability to go out into the world and do other things. If i lived in LA i would just eat tacos breakfast lunch and dinner and never cook.
Very nice and easy to watch. Love your new routine. Agree with Fly Lady….easier to clean as you go.
thank you!❤️
Of course. Been looking fir new videos from you. Please keep them coming. Also…hope your Thanksgiving was great. Remain blessed. 👍🏽🙏🏾🥰😍
There is nothing like Flylady system adapted to your needs. I do a light version of it almost every single day.
We wash our bedding every 5 or so days, more frequently during summer months or hot days. Love hanging out sheets on line to dry. I’ve got 3 cats here, one seems to be moulting on a permanent basis (yet remains super fluffy and cute!) and vacuuming/sweeping daily is the bane of my life but she’s gorgeous so I don’t mind. At least she’s clean and washes herself every day unlike my kids who have to be nagged to wash their faces never mind having a shower!
😂😂😂 at cat vs kids self cleaning. also... i dream of hanging linen on a clothes line to dry. the sun makes the sheets even brighter!!
Very calming video, I change bed on Sunday mornings. I give myself an hour to get up and out the door on all the other mornings for work. I do couple odd jobs each evening if I don't fall asleep after dinner. Sunday has to be my full house clean up day, never enough hours. Deep clean done during annual leave. Your dog so cute.
it really does feel like never enough hours...i have a lot of deep cleaning to catch up on :)
I love how gentle and soothing your voice is!! And I also saw that boricua sign!! 🥰🥰
Thanks hun enjoying your videos as well!!
Had to pause the video and start cleaning my kitchen. Thanks for the inspiration!
Yay I’m so happy to hear that!!
This was so soothing and simplistic✨
I love your little kitchen too
Thank you ❤️
Me watching this, whilst trying to declutter a cluttered house 😆 I need the break and inspiration
that is what i am here for!!:)
love watching you cleaning and organizing, therapeutic. I change my bedding once a week or every 5 days if I am feeling productive. :P
hahah yes i love hearing the range...very realistic!
I wash/change bedding once a week, change pillow cases after two sleeps. I have allergies and was always waking up with a puffy face/eyes. Being consistent with this has made such a huge difference and my skin has improved as well. Also Sampson is SO handsome in his bandanna 💛
i need to try this cuz allergies here!
I do the same thing I change my bedding once a week on Mondays
Your bedroom windows are fantastic!!!!
Thank you ❤️☺️
I really like you videos. Watching you get organized is calming.Flylady save me from CHOAS.
I'm so glad!!❤️
I am about to move into a downtown apartment without a washer and dryer, so i really loved watching you use the portable.
it's amazing if you have the space i recommend for sure!!
Hahahah loved that Samson bit at the end. Lololol. Habit of completion? I do not know such a thing. Loved the video. Thanks for the inspo yet again.
YES jack canfield talks about it in success principles. i think it's called the cycle of completion.all about not leaving those nagging final things hanging. thanks jen isn't samson hilarious!! 😂❤️
The big bedroom window you have privacy with seeing the trees......
it really is the best!
I switch my bedding once a week. In the summer sometimes twice a week if I am really struggling with the heat.
that sounds totally reasonable!
Always love watching you so refreshing and relaxing ☺️
Hahaha, Samson scolding you at the end.. I love it 💜
Could have been my dog too.. YOU sit down! Haha 😂
Wasn’t that the best part hahaha I love translating his barks 😂
@@TheCarlaProject And you are SO on point with that translation! My boy is a big communicator too, telling me excactly what to do..
Samson-lol! l change my sheets every 2 weeks (usually). I do the Fly Lady method as well. In the morning I swish and swipe and make my bed, in the evening I shine my sink and do one load of laundry. That's about all I can manage working outside of the home. I split up the weekly home blessing over the weekend. I kind of suck at Zone cleaning, but if I can squeeze some of that in, I find my place stays mostly clean.
This was great! Very motivating. 😄 I wash our sheets every week to 2 weeks. 👍
Love it!! Same!❤️❤️
Great job ---and the best feeling is coming home to a clean house. Samson is ADORABLE! I hope you both have a great week!
it makes living here so much nicer :)) thank you friend!❤️
Hi Carla. Loved this video. Something that motivates me is doing laundry at night to cut on time taken in the morning. I don't have a dryer but have a rack where clothes dry. Drying at night means it is ready for ironing in the morning. Also, I start with a cup of coffee 😉 and open all the curtains and windows for that lovely cool air in the morning. 💕💕
Love these tips!!❤️
Kudos to you! I do have a morning routine, but it's very scaled down in comparison to your routine 😂...I don't usually hang out in other parts of my home during the work week AND barely cook after work, so the spaces outside of my bedroom are usually already neat and tidy...I only make my bed, vacuum my area rug that is in my bedroom (I live 90% of the year in The Middle East and granite flooring is very popular in homes here, so area rugs peppered throughout the home are a must) 🤗...I clean the tub, toilet, and sink in my ensuite bathroom after washing but a large portion of my morning routine is around my prayers, meditations, and devotions. I work in an International School and am usually clocking in around 6:00 am, so set my morning alarm for 3:00 am. I will light an incense and have a large mug of black tea with milk and sugar, then I meditate and pray and read my morning devotions for about 90 minutes...Then I'll start preparing for my day...The last thing I do before leaving for work around 5:30 am is vacuum my area rug in the bedroom...I am not a breakfast eater, so rarely cook breakfast. Thankfully, I wouldn't be able to keep up with all of that if I did 🤣...My Friday morning looks a lot like your video here...Fridays and Saturdays are the weekend days here in The Gulf Region, so I usually do a deeper clean during the weekends...God Bless You with your many efforts to control the piles of hair from your dog's coat...My SEVERE OCD just cannot allow me to own a pet that would shed hair at that rate 😕.
Loooooove reading your morning routine it’s wonderful! Inspired!!🙏🏾💕
Wow!! Way to go. You are a great influencer.
I love the flylady routine. It helps so much. I see you live in cali. I used to live there. Miss San Diego so much.
Enjoyed your video. Once a week, I change the bedding. I love your windows in your bedroom 💕 .
they're the best!!thank you!❤️
I just found your channel a week ago & love your videos ! You keep things real & inspire me to further de clutter my home & have a better morning routine. I love Samson as well ❤️ I have a Golden Retriever so understand the struggle is real with our pets hair…
I'm so glad!! Thanks for watching Lisa!! ❤️
Thank you for sharing . You are doing so well. I totally see why you agreed so quickly because of the windows . 💛🤍.
thank you!❤️
I love watching your videos! They're so calming. I did a personal challenge a while ago where I made myself clean and tidy everyday for a week. It felt so good to have a clean kitchen in the morning (I'm naturally not the tidiest person...) but I realised that people who have clean houses all the time is because they are cleaning all the time... I couldn't keep it up because there was always something else I preferred to do 😅 BUT I am so much better now, though I'm not perfect, I don't leave mess anymore like I used to. You inspire me!!
you inspire me with your comment!! i soooo relate!!
I was gonna comment on how much I loved the bedroom windows with the green view and then you went and said everything I was gonna say 😆
hahah they are the best!
New subscriber here. Great video and very motivational. I try (try is the word here) to meal plan for the week on Sundays. This helps with my morning routine because I generally don't cook in the morning. I make a few breakfast items (sausage & egg scramble in muffin pans, boiled eggs, etc. Since I work from home I also make enough meals for lunch and dinner. I change my linen weekly and have tried various cleaning g methods over the years and the fly lady works for me. I meal prep on Sundays and nothing else, I leave the rest of the day as my time, to read, sleep, go shopping, basically anything I WANT to do, no work or cleaning though.
Have a great week!
you just gave me a great idea! i have a muffin tin and can totally make little egg bites on sun night for my breakfast and keep in fridge (maybe even freeze🤔). thank youuuu!!!
My morning routine takes an hour. Because that's the time I have after I get up before kids get up and we all got to go. I could have more time, and a longer morning routine, but I don't wanna get up that early! You mentioned it in the cleaning vid, but I really like the way the navy couch looks with the chartreuse tv shelf! I know it's a crazy combination, but it makes me happy! Great vid, Carla!!
I change my bedding every Sunday. I have allergies and doing it this way makes it better since I have a dog who sleeps with us at night.
aww lucky dog!!
I change the bedding once a week
that sounds like the norm!
Samson is too adorable! Love and enjoy your videos!
thank you!❤️
Absolutely love the windows in your bedroom! So peaceful 🤍
The best!
Inspiring me for a new morning routine over here! Thank you ♥️

You're the best!thank you 🥰🥰🥰
Your videos are calming☺️
thank you diana!!❤️
I feel like this is a crystal ball of what life would have been like without kids lol 😂 so calm, so quiet. Thank you for sharing. I love the fly lady but I don’t always stick to it. My life is just a little too hectic
Exactly I have 2 kids a toddler and a newborn! Having 3 hours to tidy is a luxury!
Chaos toddlers and kids sounds wonderful ☺️ y’all deserve a medal lol
Samson had me fooled! Here I thought he was very quiet!!! Huh! He sure let you know where you stood😂😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏 Love it!
Great routine. I felt very accomplished after watching your home become so lovely so I can only imagine how great you felt. My morning routine...hhhmmmm. I'm retired so have nothing to rush to. Every morning I make a big cup of tea and watch youtube. Then I make breakfast and read the Bible. Sometimes I have the washing going early. I make my bed Monday to Friday and leave it on the weekend. That is my easy and loose routine lol
Love the peacefulness of your morning routine! And yeah Samson had you fooled hahaha he crazy 😂
