    Nope to the single set of sheets. I have done that for years and moving into a new house, I bought 2 sets for each bed. One comes off and goes to the laundry and the folded set gets put on. When the 1st set is done, it gets folded & put up (and therefore there is always a backup set that matches, not an old worn set). I can suffer from pain any time of the day and I need to be able to lay down and I want sheets on the bed, I am tired of laying on my mattress protector. Only our bed has a winter duvet/goose down set and a summer comforter set because I get tired of looking at the same thing 365 days of the year. I will stay minimal in other areas like clothes and shoes, been great at that.

    The biggest killer of houseplants is underwatering or overwatering. Decide on a day of the week you will water your plant and put it in your planner or set a weekly alarm on your phone to remind you until it becomes a habit. Snake plant or pothos are hardy and can handle a bit of neglect if you forget a week. Also make sure to check the dirt of the plant you are buying to make sure there aren't bugs in it. Good luck!

    Terrific video. Started my decluttering journey in 2016 when we put our two-story house up for sale and moved into two bedroom apartment. Decluttered items were all donated. Once covid hit I started going through my clothes and accessories and donated a lot of good items. The problem I had was a lot of my clothes were in a dresser making it difficult for me to see exactly all the clothes I had. I gave away the dresser. Now all outerwear hangs in one closet except for coats which I have nine of. My closet consist of 7 pairs of jeans 16 pairs of pants three skirts and numerous tops. I no longer have "around the house" clothes. My more comfortable clothes I wear around the house yes but they're also suitable to wear out if I want to go to the corner store or downtown shopping, I can can because I'm actually dressed to go out. I love to shop and buy good quality. Now what I look at is whether or not the item will go with everything in my closet. I have curated an interchangeable year-round wardrobe. Everything can be worn for all four seasons, layering if necessary in Winter and Fall. Habits I've changed include no longer accepting samples when buying cosmetics as I won't use them. Getting e-receipts. Leftovers no longer get stored in the freezer but rather in the fridge where we are more inclined to use them. Using up, for example personal grooming products before replacing them. Reducing bank accounts to one institution. Using one bank debit card which can be used as a credit card too. Disposing junk mail immediately when I pick up my mail. There's so much more in your video which I found very relatable and which I could go on further about but won't lol. Love your personality!

    The break on your blender is in a place that doesn’t effect the seal of the lid. You could try to ask the company for a new part. Online it should have a “parts” list you can order from. Or you could take it to a jeweler and they can grind the sharp edge down for you. They also can do chips in crystal, china, and glassware.

    None of my first plants survived the two moves I've made to two other states. That's a story on its own.
    Now I am following what my mother did with plants. There were several around the house for us to water, and each week we used a damp cloth to "dust" the leaves. Many of the plants mentioned in these comments are ones we had, and I began a collection of mini cacti and succulents growing in a clay pot saucer. Another plant I had was a Norfolk pine, which I decorated with red ribbon.
    What I like most about plants is watching them grow, and they "clean" the air we breathe. Plus, they are restful to look at.

    I have a lot of house plants because I just love them. I think they add so much to my life. I would recommend you start with a Sansevarious Snake Plant. they are very minimal in the have only a few leaves (stalks) that grow upright. But they are great for any lighting condition you give them. The will survive in low light, but the will thrive in brighter (not direct) lioght. They come in many colors and patterns and sizes. From ones that will grow very tall to compact varieties. Also a ZZ Plant, and ANY Pothos varieties and trailing philodendrons. Any of these plants are pretty tolerant of various conditions. Only water when the soil is dry and they will be just fine. All are very tough to kill, but over watering will kill any plant. Just let them dry out and you will be fine with any of these plants.

      @@flowerpower2906 There are lots of different ways to save/hurt the environment. Heating bread on the stove instead of in a toaster is such a small thing, if it is even less energy efficient (which I don't know for sure). I'm not worried about it. Me buying another to replace a single use appliance when it wears out? That's not so good. Eating (raising, feeding, etc) the amount of animal products Americans eat is so much worse for the environment, but people still do it (I don't, but that's just me). GMO farming practicing using millions of gallons of herbicide? Getting huffy at a stranger on the internet for making a decision to let go of consumerism and to support their mental health? I think that's bad for the environment too. People with poor mental health don't make the best environmental decisions, after all.
      Overall, this decision is so tiny, and I do think it might be better environmentally overall. 👍🏼

    Start with pothos.’they are super easy to maintain and keep alive for beginners. I used to have a “black thumb”. Then a gardening lady recommended pothos to me. My interest in plants grew from that one pot of pothos. ☺️

    Get a ZZ plant! They dont need direct light, and in fact do better about 10ft away from a window. Water once a week (I've forgotten before and it always bounces back). So so easy...I've had my plant for years and have even propagated cuttings for family.

    Definitely get yourself a houseplant. Get an easy one like an arrowhead or spider plant and go from there. I have lots and I do not plan on decluttering any because I love how they make my home feel. It’s super calming and I think it would add to your lovely home.

Also, I kill all plants too and somehow I currently have 5 that I’m keeping alive!🤣 by far the easiest one I have is the pothos plant! I have 2 now and no matter what I do I can’t kill them!

    The Pothos plant is so easy to grow. You wait until it tells you it needs water. When the plant gets a little droopy, take the plant, put it in the sink and water it thoroughly and it will perk up again. You can find them everywhere too. Good luck, you’ve got this. 🥰

    House plants tip: get many, at least 3 different ones. One of them will end up being the one who droops leaves so you notice it and water them all. Group together and take care of them on the same go, my minimum is once a week. If one or two dies, it doesn't matter, you will find one that is suitable to your style of "gardening".
    Thank you for inspiring me in decluttering, you make it seem so cool!

    Aloe plant would be a great one to start. Easy to care (plus bonus if you have a cut you can break off a piece and rub on cut)
    I have an instant pot which I bought in 2021 it too intimidated me for one year until I bought a pork roast that had directions how to use with instant pot and so I followed between the back and a cookbook that came with it and made the best tasting tender roast I ever made. But since then I have not used it and realize I do everything by cooktop or oven because that’s what I am comfortable and used to because growing up I never had that. I have friend or two who use theirs all the time!
    I moved out from an apartment in with my grandmother (one story and basement bungalow house) in May 2013. She went into hospital Feb 2014 and sept to a nursing home then died (oct 2014). My dad refuses to get rid of her stuff or his he finds and brings over. So it’s been a struggle. (If I get rid of her stuff or his, he is type to get rid of my stuff)
    I used to have three magic bullets. One was mine then my dad found two but he put it with mine and I couldn’t tell which was the found and which was mine (that upset me) they all worked well then one day I pulled one out - didn’t work. Pulled second out. Didn’t work. Third one worked but touch and go. So two left the house and now I have one working one tho sometimes it leaks and does not turn on. Also three blenders they stopped working except one which I use often.
    I have one mcmuffin maker (dad found) the bun goes on top and bottom the egg cracks in centre and a place to add meat, close lid, egg cooks and slides onto the bun) which I rarely use.
    I have single sock pairs - no two are alike with different picture or designs on them.
    Oh and I only have one popcorn maker (I got from dad) it looks like from 1970’s.
    Everything else I have multiples or duplicates of - knives, pots, irons, laundry baskets, hampers, tea towels, dish rags, aprons, blenders, standing mixers, pantry food items, sheets, pillow cases, keychains (tho not on keys in general as a lot have broken but still sentimental), tvs (3 - only one is mine) I have different coloured pants, pink, grey, black, light black, green, dark green, light green, etc
    If I get rid of stuff maybe it will light a fire for my dad to get rid of his stuff (old ceiling lamp, three wheelchairs, two hospital rolling bed tables, Walker (or put it somewhere else then basement) many pictures in frames he has found, mismatched chairs that were my grandmothers, 1950’s dining and chair set, swing machines (5), two non-working washing machines and one from the 1940’s wringer, three microwaves which he has already rotated with me that don’t work but other day ( his memory is going so he argued that they were never upstairs and I had never used them) which I have and they stopped working so he won’t get rid of them. I have donated a lot already but I have boxes by door that I am not able to leave out in my neighbourhood for Canadian Diabetes(CD) pick up because my neighbourhood is sketchy and I had one box stolen from my porch while waiting for CD to come collect.
    Also I have multiple mitts / gloves as I too have left mine on bus or other and glad I had backups (most were birthday or Christmas from an out of town relative) and our weather changes and sometimes goes down to -40’c (104’F) some winters so I have mitts for all degree of temperatures and ones I can double up so I can’t go with only one pair plus I ride bus and we sometimes stand 10 to 15 mins between buses and in -40’c weather our fingers would freeze off in one minute (this past winter 21/22 was mild so it was great and not that cold some days so I only needed a lighter though still thick for preventing fingers freezing)
    Great video to remind me to look and see what I really need to keep or donate as I have too many of some stuff.
    Thank you for another inspiring video of reminding us we should only have one of everything!!
