For those of you who don't drive, like Remi, and need a solution for your charity shop donation declutterings, I've recently discovered a UK based company called Anglo Doorstep Collections. You choose which charity you want to support when you book the collection on their website and they come and fetch it! You have to book when they are coming to your area, which can sometimes be a week or 10 days away so I book in advance of a declutter and use the collection date as motivation to declutter as much as I can before they get here. I've got it in my calendar now to book 4 times a year so I can do a declutter at the change of seasons. It's really helped ease up that "getting it out of the house" bit of post decluttering work, especially if there isn't parking near your local charity shops, like my local town. I'm jealous of the drive through donation stations they have at Goodwills in the USA, its just not that easy here in the UK is it!? It's an absolute pain to have to lug binbags of donations through the town centre, so Anglo are onto a winner here. The charities to choose from seem to rotate through the year too which is a great idea.
Love watching and listening to you sweetheart. You do an amazing job and no doubt you help many,many others. I remember when my 3 were young ,it was toys that caused the most stress but as they get older it gets easier . Less toys ,more gadgets. More space and less stress. ❤
@@remiclog Glad that's useful. Maybe there are similar services that others know of around the UK? I just have experience of this one. You can tell Charlie I've saved his bacon for next time you declutter now Remi 😂 He'll be off the hook for doing the charity shop run! Lots of love ❤
Oh, dear one, I'm so sorry you are going through this season of sorrow. My daddy's health is failing fast and currently resides in a nursing home. On my visits, I don't wake him if he is resting. Remi often keeps me company as I wait for daddy to open his eyes. It's easy for depression to hit, and hit hard. It is Remi's attitude of gratefulness and appreciation of the small things that keeps me coming back to her channel.
Hi, I am a school teacher in Mississippi in the USA. I just love watching your videos. You are so real. I love to watch you actually clean something that needs cleaning. So many other RU-vidrs basically just fluff pillows in immaculate living rooms. Keep on sending the motivation and being your true authentic self. LOVE it. Take care.
In this 43 mins I cleaned my kitchen, washed 2 loads of clothes and cleaned my toddlers room.. I NEVER get that much done in such a short time unless I'm listening to your videos so thank you very much for the long content! You are doing an amazing job!
I like your accent. I am 62 years old. I take care of my 77 year old brother. I watch videos at night to give myself me time. I do love how you explain things as you go. I'm in Missouri. I wish you the best of luck at keeping this going. Mothering itself can be a challenge right up there with keep the house at a manageable level.😊👍
I’m autistic so I really appreciate you talking about taking neurodivergent people into consideration in cleaning/organisational videos. I’ve always struggled to follow these and tips like “clean as you go”. your videos have been really helpful for me! I did a deep clean of the kitchen and I feel really proud of myself. I still have the rest of the flat to contend with but just achieving this first goal has been massive to me. Thank you!
Seriously. My favorite part is that her house looks like mine....it's not a super staged nice house with a lady who's telling me how to "just do a little bit a day!" As she manages to have the brain power to wash her all white pristine sheets, dry them, and put them back on in the same day hahaha
You should feel proud of yourself!! It’s still a huge achievement ☺️ I’m soo pleased to hear the videos have been a help, and you are so very welcome 😊
Thank you Remi for making us all feel human again. Life is hectic and your videos are a very bright and motivating nudge to get things sorted. You are the most real & honest RU-vidr! Take care of yourself and I hope life treats you well. ❤
What I love about your videos is that they are realistic. Not som rich super minimalist with perfect life. You're a mom with regular home with regular life. Like a firend.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your long videos because it's not just watching you clean and organize...you are touching our minds and souls...you are helping us with our own lives and for this, we are thankful. I kept your video on as you inspired me to do some decluttering. I went through my 2 shelving units with the many storage baskets and decluttered things I won't ever use or have any use for. I decluttered a kitchen drawer and organized my medications. I haven't even started my spring cleaning and am pushing it away every day because it's just so overwhelming, but now I realize I don't have to do a room a day and can do a bit here and there, slowly working up to a completed task. You rock girl. I love how you labeled the new little storage drawers for your kids, I love that...that is so what I love!!!! Bless you sweetie
I love how good I feel after watching your videos. Your friendly chats are so therapeutic 🥰💖🫂 Thank you so much for your kindness and being a blessing to so many 💯
Hey new here. Just love you. You actually inspired me to clean and declutter my house. Thankyou so much for being unapologetically yourself and so down to earth ❤❤
I also feel much better after watching your videos! Not surprising others feel this way as well- you are such a positive influence. Keep sharing- we need you! And we like you so much.💐
As a Wife, Mom of 2 and Music Teacher (48 years old) from Cape Town, South Africa, i LOVE your channel and your genuineness Remi Clog. On a Sunday morning you are helping me motivate to clean and just get on with it
This is the hard work it takes to maintain a clean home. Thank you for sharing this process. People think that once you do a massive declutter, you’re done. Not the case.
Talking really is your thing 😊 and that's what we love about you! Your soothing, relaxing voice and the therapeutic 'anti-guilty' way of looking at everyday life and struggles! Brave and kind, rare and lovely combination! ❤❤❤
I have been friends with Mack, from Midwest Magic Cleaning for around 30 years. I always start with your videos, to get into the calm mindset that my neurodivegent brain requires, so that I can overcome the task paralysis that is everpresent. Then, if go watch Mack spin kick everything into shape! I tell you this, because without your calm, considerate, and kind insight, I couldn’t even begin the tasks in front of me! I so appreciate you, and the time you devote to your channel. I appreciate your family for supporting your journey, and being so understanding as you devote time to us! I live across the pond, and look so forward to having with me on Saturday mornings, as I prepare my mind and soul to give my family the parts of me that they need. You definitely feel like a friend! Also, as a special education teacher, I can say that the insight you provide is absolutely on point. Sending love from Illinois! ❤
I was listening to Mack right before I started on Remi's video. He's doing the Lord's work, that's for sure! The things he does for people are miraculous. I would love to know how he has all that energy!
I love when you talk to us. I watch other videos and most of the time I hear music which is fine but you're just a joy to listen to. Thank you for taking us along on your cleaning, reorganizing journey.
Dear Remi, I wanted to thank you for being a safe space for neurodivergent people! 💐As an late diagnosed autistic woman, I feel understood and good while watching you videos. It's like listening to a friend with similar struggles. I am glad that I am not alone with this. The art folder for your son's drawings is a wonderful idea! I really appreciate your work and your uplifting spirit. Thank you!
I did all my dishes I didnt't do in the last few weeks because I am horribly depressed while listening to you. Now my kitchen is usable again and it was actually kind of fun :) thank you!
Same here, this is very calming to people like us, it's methodic and there is a payoff for her and for us. Plus, I end up tackling a cabinet or drawer afterward! It's self care, that seems to be the key. Hang in there, I think life gets better, or at least it seems to be better!
I'm the same. Plus I'm recovering from breaking my ankle in 2 places and now have 2 metal plates holding it in place. Depression is horrible, and it doesn't help that I'm beating myself up. I found FlyLady to help start cleaning, but this channel is so encouraging.
I love watching your videos and listening to you talk about your life. We all have things we struggle with and aren't great at, but I think as long as we try, and we are kind, then that is enough. Thank you for your honesty. It is so refreshing.
I am 65 and live in the US. I love your videos and watch daily for a new one. Your "chatter" is so friendly and calming. It feels like I'm talking to a friend. Watching you clean gives me some great ideas and lets me know that I'm not alone on getting motivated. Thank you for welcoming me into your home. Please keep them coming and give my best to your dad!
I took a week off work so I could clean, but between my newly diagnosed adhd and chronic pain I feel like I've barely gotten anything done, and I'm already half way thru my time off. But I watched your video, and just sat and enjoyed some fresh coffee and looked around at the little I actually have been able to do. It's not as much as others could have gotten done, it's not as much as I could have gotten done a few years ago, but I did stuff. And I'm proud. And it makes me want to do more. Thank you for your videos Remi. I'm a new sub but already have been helped by you. 💜
Tape the bubble tube to an upright fence post/washing line stake/table leg on the patio at their height. Then they can dip the wand and not spill! Life changer and saves a gallon of bubble juice a day 😅
@lesley: Not gonna lie, I cringed at your comment. Toys that replicate weapons only encourage violence. There are plenty of shapes that squirting toys can be made out of that children would find fascinating and super fun while not imitating violence. People wonder why children find a real gun in the house and decide it’d be fun to play with and shoot at someone else. But when they’ve been taught that guns are toys, what do you expect?
@@xradelox we're in the UK, we don't have guns. I understand it's a problem in the US. I agree though, kids being socialised that violence is a game and guns are toys is weird!
Hey Remi, I am from Australia, NSW. I have 4 children, 11, 8, 4, and 2. My two eldest children are Autistic with other Dignosis. I also have my own Mental Health Issues, anxiety, Depression, Dyslexia and ADHD. When I came across your videos, I was inspired by your words, wisdom, and humour. I look forward to watching and listening to your video's as they have really helped me. Keep being you! You are a breath of fresh air. Thank you. 😊🩷
So happy to hear the good news about Ike!🥰 I cannot wait to see your garden video! Every time I watch one of your videos is like I’m visiting with a good friend!😊
FORTY THREE MINUTES???? i am so excited THANK YOU, i swear you time your videos perfectly i just finished my last assignment before the mid semester break and needed to take my mind off of it bless ❤❤
Dear Remi❤ I adore your channel. Thank you for your this long video. It's a treat. I got my driver license at 37 yo. Now at 40 I'm a happy satisfied driver) You are ready when you are ready. That's for sure
I love your sweet English accent, it’s so calming. I find organising and keeping things neat is so easy for me. I just look at a mess and my brain just knows what to do. I can help my family and friends with their homes and I don’t judge I feel so satisfied after a good clean and organise.
You are so adorable and you know what? You don’t give yourself enough credit for all the things you have figured out what most people in a lifetime can’t figure out! ❤😂
You are an actual ray of sunshine. Thank you being real & a beautiful soul. You are so wise and kind and your channel is more motivating than any I have ever watched. You make me feel less alone. Thank you gorgeous woman xxxx keep being brilliant xxx
I love watching your videos while cleaning ❤. I'm 22 years old and I recently lost my mother. It has been hard for me to keep my belongings organised, especially after moving to a different city and taking my mother's cat with me. I also enjoy your accent, which is so cheerful. Thank you for creating wonderful content ✨️ Greetings from Poland from me and 🐱🐈
I'm so sorry you have lost your mother, especially since you are so young. Bless your hurting heart for taking the cat with you. It does get easier over time, but it is still painful to lose one's parents. I'm thinking of you. ❤
I am from North Carolina, USA. Thank you Remi for sharing your life with us. You are such a joy and I love hearing you talk. You and your family are adorable ❤
I have multiple chronic illnesses including spinal endometriosis which make cleaning very painful. I always listen to your videos when I have to clean because it distracts me and feels like I’m cleaning with a friend. I got two bathrooms cleaned today and I’m so proud of myself ☺️
Thank you for chattering! Really appreciate that I don't have to be actively watching to still get the sense that I'm not cleaning alone. I'm getting better but it really helps to feel like I've got company that gets how hard it is to just clean.
Remi, this was wonderful! I enjoyed everything and thank you for all of the work that must have gone into making the video... It feels like I am cleaning with a girlfriend and we are sharing as I watch your channel and do a task at my desk simultaneously. I appreciate the subjects you talk about and find you so relatable: it's almost like you have stood in my shoes and seen what I have to deal with each day. Helps me feel less isolated and more capable as you give me many ideas, inspiration and positive coping to absorb and practice. THANK YOU!!! Looking forward to each thing you produce and wishing you well. K
I’ve found the way I’m keeping my house clean is by a schedule of clean a room a day. Sunday is my kitchen day Monday is laundry Tuesdays is bathrooms Wednesday is bedrooms Thursday is living room So that Friday I can get whatever I missed or just craft. Saturday is my day to spend time with family and rest. It’s helping to keep my mind calm and something to do in the day while my kids are in school. So proud of you for getting so much accomplished. When I purge my house I tend to go through everything one room at a time, I don’t move on until I have the room done from the closet to the door. Growth happens one day at a time. No pressure just let it happen naturally. 😊
I am a person who has always been very organized and able to keep things clean. But you have taught me that people who have a hard time with doing those things that come so easy yo me is because we are all different. You are an encouragement to many people because you have shown your progress and how you get through the challenges. I just love watching your videos and hearing you chatting away as you go! I am happy to know that watching your videos has helped you and your family.❤
Same here Joyce. 😊 I really enjoy cleaning and and organizing and like to keep my possessions low because clutter brings up my anxiety, but I LOVE spending time with Remi. She definately is an encourager and she has taught me so much.
I love listening to you. It's like therapy to me. It feels soooooo good to see someone else, struggling with the every day tasks, the way l do; and not being ashamed of it. But finding a solution, and even sharing with others.❤
This channel is my #1 choice for when I need help starting my cleaning. I have no body doubles in my life, and I also have ADHD and severe depressive disorder. I love these longer videos, and you are so non-judgmental and supportive of complete strangers! Thank you for keeping up with this channel 💚💙💜
I just love your style of cleaning, we all get overwhelmed most of the time and you just get on with the cleaning. Thanks for making me feel a little more normal.
I migh say something a bit out of pocket here but its only because you Remi have made me really comfortable in your virtual presence. And its this : sometimes as I listen along I've had the thought that I wish my mother could have been more like you. Your kids are really lucky to have someone like you as their parent Remi
I love your honesty! I don’t have children in my home anymore but at 72 my energy levels are not enough to have long stretches of cleaning. However, I appreciate how you inspire me to do what a I can and enjoy what I’ve gotten done! Thank you!
Yay top 64 and top 24 likes and comments. Love this channel. Best to you and your family. Thanks for making this video. Clicked on video 9 minutes after it was uploaded. 7:08 a.m. Saturday April 13th, 2024. Watching from Maryland.
same here. clicked and watched right away. Love your work and talk! Thanks for putting all your work into making such an enjoyable vid. Your fan in Tokyo. xx
Some of the things you talk about in your videos resonate so much with me. Your channel helps me get into the cleaning mood when my executive disfunction kicks in. As I write this, I'm surrounded by piles of clothes for washing, but I've tidied my room while you've tidied in your video. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. Content like yours makes me feel normal. ❤
I felt so bad for laughing but that story of when you failed your drivers test immediately, because you pulled out of the test centre on the wrong side of the road?! That had me on the floor!! That was so funny, girl!
I just found your videos recently, and I can tell you that I do not at all mind your chatter. Makes me feel like I'm having a conversation with someone! I absolutely love your voice, it's so soothing! I love how kind you are, how you go out of your way to make other people including your fellow neurodivergent people feel as understood and welcomed as I did! I don't think I've ever felt so comfy watching a video before, thank you for making me smile today! God bless! Thank you for being real!
Love your videos 🌹 we all suffer from mum guilt, I think but when we have a little cleaning community and we can talk about it, it's a bit of a relief......and honestly I think that the best parents probably are worried because it shows we care so please, let's share and feel better. All the best 💛🙂
I'm 40 and I still feel like a teenager too. It doesn't stop happening, but you get better at faking your way through it the older and older you get lol
Two things went through my mind as I listened to you today. 1 - I recently read that in children with ADHD, the development of the frontal brain is delayed by up to five years,(while the motor cortex may even mature faster) so yeah, it kinda takes a bit longer for us, to 'grow up'. and 2 - to all those who give you the well-intentioned advice to teach your children to tidy up after themselves...here, too, there are findings that children simply have no concept of tidying up. This is not something that is intended at their stage of development. To me it's amazing how persistent these common opinions are. You're doing a great job, Remi. I'm a fan of yours and I'm happy for you that your content is so successful. Yor content is really motivating for me. My closet is tidier than ever.😅 Keep up the good work!👏
I can’t believe this was 43 minutes! Time just seemed to fly by. I’ve been waiting for your newest RU-vid. I enjoy all of them and look forward to your garden ones. I really appreciate you taking the time to do these.
I was dreading the cleaning I had to do today, but then remembered your channel and realized I was going to get to listen to you while I do it, and then I was okay with the work I had to do. Love your videos! "Mess is Morally Neutral " gets me through a lot of days.
@@kerridavis86 hope you're ok now and I agree 💯 her voice is comforting 💎✨💫 My daughter who is 13 has subscribed too because she also agrees her voice Is calming 💛
Definitely besties! 💕🌸 Always enjoy our time together, cleaning and organizing, Remi! 😃 So happy to hear Ike is well! ♥️🎉 What a relief! Blessings, my friend!
I'm watching this from Nebraska while curled up in bed at 6am and not wanting to go to work. I love listening to ur voice, ur accent, and what you have to say. Thank u for all u do! U inspire me to be a better person.
I love that you put all his art into a folder to keep, that's such a great idea. As a fully-grown artist, I wish I'd kept a bit more of my childhood art!
I happen to enjoy your so called chattering. I like hearing your snippets of wisdom. As for the people telling you that if you taught your children to pick up after themselves, your home wouldn't be so messy, I say it's none of their business. Until those people walk in your shoes, then they need to be kinder in their remarks. Your videos are inspiring and delightful.
Where I live, it's too hot to keep chocolate outside the fridge. They will always be melted and hard to eat. However, if that wasn't the case, I would probably keep it in a cupboard, too. Thank you for this video! It's going to help me deep clean my office and living room! It's hard to stay motivated when my spouse isn't home. It's so easy to do a chore, see how little it did, and get defeated. Congratulations on your monetization!! And best of luck with your housing lottery!! Edit: I had to mention that watching these makes it feel like I understand your family more. You are all creative and enjoy crafts. It's wonderful to see all of the things your boys have made and how they are treasured.
What a fantastic video,as always! Thankyou so much, because of you I found the courage to stick to my guns and I'm now waiting for an appointment to be assessed for autism...at 57!!!! I'd never heard if executive dysfunction until I discovered you so THANKYOU ❤
Felt very important to tell you that your channel brings me immense joy and has helped me a great deal as a single mother. I've been with you since the beginning and it's been a joy watching your channel grow. I hope it doesn't stop and that you get all the things you've been dreaming of.
You are doing a great job! Being a Mom with small children and living in a house with minimal storage space is not an easy thing. Love your videos, and love the time you spend with your children. God Bless You!
If anyone else was to talk through a 40 min video itd do my head in, but i love listening to what youve got to ramble about as you put it!! Thankyou for the awesome vid.
I cleaned my whole home today and have booked the junk people in for tomorrow, thanks to you and your motivating videos. I am thankful for you and the time you take and wanted YOU to know that we appreciate all that you do. Thank you, from one anxious person to another. Youve made my little life a little better. xo
I love these long chatty videos! They keep my company while I work. I got all my laundry folded while watching today. You did a fabulous job on your declutter Remi! Can’t wait for the next video!
Remi, I'm two hours south of Chicago, I love your verbal rambles. For one so young - you understand so many important things - attachment theory, neurodivergence, empathic parenting, etc... 'So glad you plucked up your courage and made a community here for us messies. Just wanted you to know I got a hard water stain finally scrubbed away while I listened. It's been buggin' me for months. 'Glad to have you along with me for the victory! Also, I bought some Cif on your recommendation. I'd never seen it here in the US. Just came today - Woohoo! You're a blessing, Remi! Sarah
Aww I love your videos and would be glad to be your best friend 😂 you remind me so much of you in so many ways. Please never stop making your videos. I'm not on Tiktok so don't follow you there, but love watching and listening to you. You really motovate me to clean but also relax me knowing that I'm not alone in the chaos of a house full of boys and the chaos of a mum mind too
Of all the videos in reference to decluttering and straightening, I can say I enjoy yours the most. You talk to the screen like they are your best friend or a friend that doesn't know what your doing. You are a wonderful person and so sweet. Take care and be safe
You are amazing!! I love the ten removal idea!! Helps keeps things from piling up!! I am so inspired by your energy and thoughts on how we all function differently!! It's OK if things get a little messy as long as you acknowledge that things still need tidied up before it gets way out of hand!! I also believe that sometimes we all need a little help!! Especially with the bigger projects like painting, new lighting, etc.!! Owning a home is a commitment. Keep up the good work!! Proud of you and your lovely family!!!
I just found you and had to laugh because I have been struggling to get myself motivated to declutter and clean. Your words about just starting and the motivation coming with action rang SO TRUE! I have no motivation anymore. Between being terrible ill during the pandemic (pneumonia on top of Covid for a month and I couldn’t work), my depression, and then starting perimenopause, my desire to keep my house in order disappeared. My husband has been a trooper at helping more and my kids aren’t terribly messy now they are teens. I finally just started in my room in one small area. I stayed in that spot till it was done! I’ve got two more areas to go and I’ll be done decluttering it! Thanks for sharing your journey!!
I am sooo surprised how many people keep their chocolate in the fridge! But absolutely did not take into account the amount of people from places where it would literally melt if it wasn’t 😂
I also use the top bunk on boys bed as somewhere to put things and when i declutter it 3 months later its back to the same way 😊 but its all a learning curve xx thanks for making my day xx Also can i ask where is the storage from on the back of the bathroom door near the end x
Something you said really resonated with me- action leads to motivation. Yes! I agonize over getting started, to the point of paralysis. If I just start, without thinking, I get so much more done. I love your videos😊
I love your videos and the chats, I feel like we are best friends from different continents!! 🇱🇷 You have helped me tremendously to understand I'm not lazy, even though I feel that way. Having a benign brain tumor zaps my energy and the simplest of tasks can be overwhelming at times, so my house suffers; but you've helped me to see that's OK. Remi, you are so real and compassionate and a great mom- I follow you on IG. You deserve new PJs every day!!! ❤❤❤
Oh bless you! That must be so difficult, wanting to do lots more than your body is able to. And thank you so much, nothing better than a new pair of pjs! ☺️
Watching you clean is so therapeutic! It's almost midnight here in Arizona (US), and I'm listening to you and things bouncing around outside because of the wind we're having. I'm glad I'm inside! 😂 I decluttered when I moved, and now I need to get better organized!
I saved this video because I had a procedure done on my back today and knew I would enjoy listening to you chatter as you tidy and declutter, while I'm forced to take it easy for a few days. (Truth is, the local anesthetic has worn off so I'm quite sore atm.) This was like having a little visit from a cheerful friend. I watched til the end so we're besties now, right? 😅 Thanks for the lovely chat. You got so much accomplished and your home looks cozy and inviting! I'm looking forward to the next long-form video when you stitch all of the shorts into one. 🩷
Oh wow, my under-sink area is always such a mess. I use a basket and have to hunt for what I need. A lazy Susan! (I don’t know what you call it.) Brilliant! I even have one because I use them everywhere else. Project for today!
@@remiclog try it on your next break 🫖🍫 thank you for your video(s). I’m watching from FL came across this morning while cleaning out my garage - cheers from Sarasota
Thank you Remi..'Action manufactures motivation' ''push myself past that initial mental block and motivation will build as I start to do the thing !' Good to be reminded of this. I just woke to hearing your friendly voice on my watch later list...you are like ASMR videos to me and calmly get me relaxed enough to get inspired...wonderful to watch too. Back to sleep now - I can feel tomorrow will be a busy day! Grateful to youf quirkh mature honesty and wisdom.❤
I wish you knew how much you’ve improved my life and taught me effective skills. Especially with regards to my guilt and shame around not being able to keep my house in order. You’re a gentle beautiful soul.
