    Your videos really take my mind off things and de stress me. I really enjoy them and say ‘yay’ out loud when I see there’s one to watch .thank you. I say the same for favourite shows like long lost family etc so it rated right up there with the great shows well done 👍
  • I am 45, have no kids, am not ND, and have no issues cleaning, but I love your videos so much. I put them on when I’m stressed or overwhelmed, and it feels like a hug and a cup of cocoa. I could listen to you talk about anything for hours, and sometimes I do. I know making content can be so much to juggle with a family and a job, but your efforts really make a difference in the lives of people you’ll probably never meet. ❤❤❤

    Remi, I have watched your videos since your first one and so love and respect the amazing mom, partner and person that you are. I’m a 65 year old grandmother and you are so inspiring, insightful and yet down to earth like most of us. Your humor and empathy for others is an added bonus!

    Thats it for me. The no rush mornings of not having to deal with the school run. No packlunches and water bottles to make up for them. No pressure to get uniform clean for next day. Just brilliant. Hope you have enjoyed the 1st week. I manged to get my daughter room decorated while she was at camp with the guides. She is so happy with it. And I'm proud of myself for finally getting it done.

    Remi, I love the screen free/screen limited Summer holiday idea. You're so right about this being a time for making memories as a family. I'm old enough to remember childhood before cell phones/tablets/video gaming systems were a thing. Summers were the best because we played outside from dawn til dusk, or if it was bad weather we built blanket tents, or played with dolls and toys and made entire worlds in our imagination. I also did a lot of reading and drawing because those were the things I loved. Summers were the best. ❤
  • It helps with older kids to have a space downstairs where they use computer. Keeps them out of bedroom and you can randomly check nothing inappropriate going on. Depends on family dynamics and personal space needs as well of course.your holiday ideas sound lovely. Pls adopt me though as a granny😂❤
  • Oooo your mom could totally do tutorials. I learn everything from YouTube. Piano, guitar, crochet, crafting, cooking, etc. YouTube is the best free learning space everrrr.

    Dear Remi, I wanna say a massive thank you for what you do! The other day I managed to get a desperately needed flat-clean done with one of your playlists in my ears that I´m sure I would´ve procrastinated once again otherwise. I try to watch every advert in order to give something back. Thank you again, and I hope you have a wonderful summer with your loved ones! xx
  • Well done on the garden!! You brought it back to life and it's looking smashing ❤
  • Your mum's sweet peas are just beautiful. And you did a beautiful job on those stains. I hated the school run. I had two boys, and each went to a different school, and one was 10 miles from our house. The one that was supposed to be left off first was always late (could not get up in time; we tried everything, poor soul), and so the second one was always late as well, which I heard about from all involved. Summer was wonderful; I was so glad. Thanks for posting, as always.
  • Remi!! I don’t really know how to word this, but I honestly feel so proud of you! Just so impressed with you, and so pleased for you. Despite all your challenges and the way your brain can work against you with regards to “being a tidy person” I can see before my eyes the huge progress you’ve made in turning things around for yourself and your family. The hard work you’ve put into yourself, the way you mentor yourself, understand yourself and keep making steps to work with and not against yourself, to grow those skills of being able to maintain a home, is honestly paying off so much. Your home is sparkling, and compared to when I first started watching your videos I can really see your home doesn’t seem to get the way it did before. I know you will have “set backs” of course, but truly your home and garden is looking beautiful and your ability to keep on top of it is honestly really growing. I wish I had the words the properly describe what I feel like I can see. But yeah I just think you’re doing an incredible job and you’re a real inspiration to me. Props to you. (I just had my fourth baby and feel like I’m on a downward spiral in terms of keeping on top of it all but your videos give me lots of help and lots of hope!) Can’t thank you enough for your honesty, vulnerability, humility, wisdom and insight. ❤❤❤
  • Absolutely love your speed cleans. You are so contagious. Can't get enough. Love your voice overs. Enjoy your holidays and the memories you will take home with you. 🥰❤
  • Remi, you are just delightful. I really enjoy watching your videos and hearing your commentary. I look forward to your videos very much.
  • I use the same sponge you use to clean my dishes. Before I throw them away I use them to remove dog and cat hair from furniture or pet beds. I am always amazed how well it works especially when the sponge is damp. Give it a go.. you're going to throw it away anyways. BTW potatoes last forever in the frig and onions kept in the frig seldom make me cry.

    It’s so amazing & I love to see when an area looks so jam packed & just reorganizing & repositioning makes it suddenly open so much. Love those sweet peas too. What beautiful flowers.

    My tip for dog beds is to wrap them in a sheet, and then put a fitted crib mattress sheet over it to keep the other sheet in place. Keeps all the grime off the bed and you can just launder the sheets as needed. You can do the same with cat beds and small dog beds by just putting them in pillow shams or pillow cases. Reduces the need to wash the actual bed, which preserves the bed, as well as cuts down on wear and tear on your laundry machines 🩷

    Flowers are absolutely beautiful. The colors are sooo pretty. As a mother you have to be the adult and show the kids how to balance the real world with the internet. Great video.
  • You have such a good attitude! I always got so stressed and overwhelmed when I had a mess to clean up with a young child. So wish I had you to listen to years ago. Keep being you!!!!🤗🥰
  • @mindyblack235
    I feel your pain with that potato bag. That's a terrible stench. Thanks for the inspiration. I love hearing your commentary. Your voice is so calming.
