- Hi, I’m Mo.
I'm feeling intimidated and excited about this series! I'm looking forward to a time when it's second nature to document my life in this diary format.
It's been a rough year so far! I'm not usually one who says this is a bad year. I've never done so before. But this might be a bad year! It's certainly had it's ups and downs.
But I do believe in positive thinking, and although that can't change every situation, it can change some. I can't wish away my depression with positive thought, but I can use it to help me motivate myself to declutter my space. Giving me actual space to find more space in my mind!
This is a pretty ramble-y video, but that is def where I'm at the moment. Sometimes, I don't know if I'm coming or going.
I touch briefly on loss of a pet, a loved one, and how I'm dealing with grief in this video.
How is 2024 treating you?

Thank you so much Ana for the shout out! I truly appreciate it 💞. Also, love this series. There is such a huge gap on youtube for this kind of content/series.
Thank you! I really enjoy your channel!
I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoyed this video. It is so nice to get to know you better. I am so very sorry to hear about Flounder. It is always so hard to say goodbye. I think you did a great job decluttering. I struggle with that so much. It seems the more I do the worse it gets. I feel like I am drowning. I want to make my home safer as I age. I don't want things in the way that could trip me up. Congratulations on the standing desk. Let us know how you like it. I would love to have one. I use an old dining room table that belonged to my husband's grandmother. It is horrible. I sit too much. I need to make some changes. Thanks for inspiring me a little bit. Always good to see you on the tube!
I'm so glad you liked the video!!
I feel exactly the same way! Like drowning. I cannot get ahead of cleaning, decluttering, or basically anything. I recently realized, I don't know how to clean properly, but also that I hate to clean!
I know that having too much stuff is part of what is overwhelming me. But I also know I'm not ready to get rid of things, let go of things, yet.
So I guess I just need to plug away at it, cleaning and decluttering where I can and be mindful of learning how to do those things better, or to better serve me.
It is important to safeguard your home! For physical reasons but for peace of mind, also! I hope you are able to make some headway in that process.
My husband uses our dining room table as his office. It's nice in some ways, but I do like to have a separate space. I haven't stood at my standing desk, much, but as I use it more, I'll let you know how I find it!
Thank you so much about Flounder. We miss her, but we had a long lovely time together.
Hi Ana, it was nice to come across your video today. I appreciate what you do. I hope you are doing okay.
Thank you! I hope you're doing ok, too!
