Praise the Lord u r better! So many people r sick right now! I agree, I don’t do winter decor, I let my house breathe for a while. God bless Anna! John 3:16 🙏
That’s too bad that you were sick. I hope you’re feeling better every day. Thank you for not being one that decorates for every holiday. Home decor is enough. I only decorate for fall and Christmas. Fall decor for me is just changing out lighter colored linens and such for the warmer colors. Honestly I just can’t stay interested in channels where the creator is constantly buying cookie cutter decor . Your house always looks beautiful and thoughtfully put together. I don’t see kitschy trendy in your house. Your home is beautiful and reflects comfort and quality . It doesn’t look like everyone else’s house.
Hi Anna, so glad to see a RU-vid channel that agrees with me that it is silly to put out "Winter" decor! Who wants pine stems, snowmen, & trees in your home. I like a clean slate after Christmas too. I was sick from Christmas Eve until just 2 days ago, also. I believe the good Lord has a way of telling us, enough is enough, go rest! I really enjoy your channel. You clean and garden much the same way that I do. I am 71 years old and just do not have the same energy I use to because of chronic illnesses but you inspire me to always keep doing new and different things in our 1937 home!
Lol…..I feel the same as you. Besides every day decor the only other decor is Christmas…..I’m 63 years old and the past five years I’ve become more of a minimalist…..I’m much more intentional about what I buy these days…..I move my decor around a lot and create new looks….thanks for the motivation….❤️👍
So good to have you back on RU-vid again. We all missed you. So sorry you had the crud. Why can’t our houses be nice and clean before we get sick? You had been so busy and look how much work you put into decorating your home so I think you’re right that God wanted you to rest. He does work in mysterious ways. So glad you’re feeling better. Looking forward to your next video. Blessings.❤
So good to see you, and so glad you are feeling better. Please don’t push yourself too hard. One thing I’ve learned is if I want to bring something new in, I ask myself is this a want or a need? What two items will I donate to make this new item worth it? Can I remake this with something I already have? That has helped me considerably. I donated so much stuff and I’ve not missed anything I have donated. So glad Ernie will be home for a little bit, enjoy yourselves and both of you relax.
I agree 100% about decorating for every seasons can spend so much money.I rather see a video with ever day decor and just rearranging.Glad ur feeling better.Happy New Year.
I’m so sorry that you were sick and I’m so happy that you are feeling better now. You were sorely missed by me.😢 I always spend Christmas Eve with my youngest daughter, my granddaughters and my son-in-law. This year they were just getting over being sick and I didn’t want to take the chance of going over there😢 the following day I went over my middle daughters house and spent the day with her and my grandchildren❤ we played games after we ate, which was so much fun; my grandchildren are all over the age of 19 now so they’re not little anymore, but I relate so well with all of them as adults❤❤ you did a great job focusing yourself on the camera😊😊 I am so glad you don’t do every holiday decor, especially winter😮 that makes no sense to me ❤❤May the Lord keep and protect you and Ernie every day🙏I’m so glad you’re feeling better! Welcome back my friend❤❤ love and hugs from me and Otis🐶 Massachusetts
Thank you, Faith! I'm so happy you were able to spend some time with family! It really makes a big difference for the holidays! Happy new year to you both!
Hey Friend, Happy Saturday. I have been missing your videos and I’m excited to see your 2024 videos and content. ❤ I had the stomach bug for new year eve/new year day as well and now I’m getting a cold. 😢 We all need some motivation to clean our house or to get something cleaned/done so lighting a candle is great motivation. For me I try to watch cleaning motivation on RU-vid to help me. ❤ You’re always able to get the motivation/energy to tackle what you need to in your house and I always enjoy watching. ❤🥰
Hi Anna. Hope you feel better soon. I agree with you about decorating for every thing. I do not do Valentines. I do a little Easter (very little). My favorite is 4th of July and Christmas but mostly I like doing tired trays. I haven’t even put a tree up in at least 6 years. I would enjoy watching you cook up some Mexican food. Have a great weekend and don’t over do it.
Yay!!! Ur back… Glad you are feeling better. Just don’t overdo it. I was ready to take down all my decor the day after Christmas and I havent taken out my regular decor yet. I’m loving the minimal stuff right now. Haha!! I’m not one to decorate for every holiday, but I do enjoy seeing everyone else’s decor. Hope you have a great week and take care of yourself!!
Glad your feeling better. I still have to put up our Christmas . Hubby is under the weather. Trying to help him also. I didn’t put too much out for Christmas. Take care and God Bless. ❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Sorry to hear you were sick, So glad you are feeling better! It is a good feeling to get the house back to normal after the holidays. Takes me several days to get everything undone and put away. Lots of trips up and down the stairs. And then to give it a good cleaning! I am really looking forward to your recipes coming this year!
Hi Anna! Great video - very motivational! I don't know if I ever told you but I live in Portugal and here no one takes down Christmas decor until the day of Kings so only this weekend does Christmas come down. Normally I take down everything that is Christmas but I leave my evergreens and garlands simple with just lights. It's so dark and rainy here in January but the green and the lights brings some warmth. I don't buy anything new a decorate even - just leave the greens and some lights. Anyway, I think everyone should just do as they please and it is important to not give into pressure and spend money unnecessarily.
So glad you are back to feeling better and filming. We are dealing with the same stuff. Sounds like it will be with us for a little while. Congratulations on your new video setup. You look awesome and are looking in the right spot. God Bless Ernie....... Here's to the New Year.......
Glad your starting to feel better, while you were off I went back and watched all your videos you made before I found your channel, I started watching right before you moved out of the house and moved to the apartment with Ernie, I really enjoyed them all!
So glad your feeling better Anna I have been keeping you in my prayers. I agree with you about not decorating for every season. If I go shopping for house decor I give something I no longer want to some of my friends. They are so happy to get my hand me downs. Take care of yourself 🙏♥️
Anna, I am so glad you are back. I appreciate the effort you made to make this video, while you were still recuperating from being sick. Please take care of yourself.
My Christmas decor is a lot of trees and winters nature. I take down the red items and Christmas trees but leave my greenery and add white items for winter because I live Florida and we don’t have winter really. I keep it up until mid to the end of January so I can enjoy it for little longer. Then I go to spring which I keep up until mid may adding things for valentines day and Easter. Mid May I do patriotic until after the 4th of July. I keep a lot of normal decor up until Christmas just adding small touches for the holidays until fall.
Glad you’re feeling better! I feel like everyone has it right now. I definitely understand not decorating after Christmas. I’m having similar feelings and not wanting to buy this year but that might just be the new year, new me talking. lol 😂 Thanks for the inspiration as always.
Happy New Year. So good to see you again. Hate to hear you’ve been under the weather, glad you are on the mend. I love this time of year, when my home is a blank slate. Clean with lots of live plants throughout, fluffy pillows and throws and that’s the extent of home decor for me. I look forward to your cookbook❣️
Happy to see you back. I don't like to make negative comments on the creators channel I will just unsubscribe however I enjoy your content but I wanted to say I do not feel it is silly to decorate for winter in my opinion I just remove the reds and keep my snowflakes and winter decorations up just rearrange them with touches if blue therefore I get Christmas and winter use out of them silly is a hard word. This year is a new spend for decor in my home.
Happy New Year Anna! So good to see you back. Good to hear you are on the mend. Don't over due it now. I had lapryoscopic surgery for a meniscus tear in my knee on 12/19. Doing so much better now, but my tree and some of the other decorations are still up. Christmas chaos here as well. Hoping to get everything down and put away tomorrow. I want to give the house a thorough going over and chance to breathe. I too won't be decorating until maybe spring. God bless.
Yay your back and you were definitely missed! Saddened me though to hear you were sick. Glad you’re feeling better. So happy you and Ernie had a wonderful holiday with family! How exciting about the cookbook! Bounce makes dryer sheets that specify for pet hair. Thank you for the motivation girl!
Ah! I knew there was something for the wash or dryer for pet hair. Although, I'd need something for wash. Urg. Thank you Lisa! I'm happy he'll be home to help!
Hey Anna, great job on getting your Kitchen done and I am glad you are feeling better now. I do not decorate for Winter and use what decor I have. Thanks for sharing and take care.
So glad you’re feeling better Anna. I agree with you about winter decor although I might leave out a few things that don’t scream Christmas I don’t go out and buy special winter decor.Glad Ernie will be home to help you ,it’s a lot of work.Happy New Year Anna❤Barb
Good morning Anna and Happy New Year! Glad to hear you are feeling better. I agree with you and so many others with no winter decor. I like a fresh start for the new year. Glad you are back and look forward to your next video! ❤
Hi Anna, Happy New Year. I have to tell you, for years I have tried to figure out what to do with my coffee filters. I wanted something pretty to put them in by the coffee pot. When I saw yours in the little glass dome, I said, that’s it! I was so worried I wouldn’t find one, but I did. In fact, I also found a white glass canister with a honeycomb design on it for the coffee. I also have the honeycomb soap dispenser you have. I like honeybee decor. I found both at Dollar General. I’m finally happy with my coffee center in my Kitchen. Thank you.
Happy to have you back and feeling better. Your video's are always an inspiration. Continue to feel better and I look forward to your continuation of your home reset. I agree with using what you have and not decorating for every season.
Hi Anna, I am so happy your back. I’m new to your channel and you have quickly become my favorite Utuber! Go slow, take it easy. Happy New Year from NJ!!
Happy New Year Anna and Ernie! I haven’t taken my tree down but I will later today, I always wait til after the 5th! No I don’t decorate for winter decor I just go back to normal decor. Love your glasses and this was a great reset. Feel better soon! 🤗🥰
Anna, so happy to see you back on your movies. I’ve missed you. ❤. so glad you are well and feeling much better. My same opinion about decorating for every season and holiday. It gets expensive! Your kitchen looked great. Shiny! 😊 Happy New Year to you and Ernie 🎉.
Hi, Anna! I’m glad you’re on the mend! Just subscribed. ❤ I am enjoying a clean slate after Christmas with minimal decor. Less is more for me right now. Happy New Year!🎉
So glad to see you!! I got sick Christmas and we were traveling. I'm gradually getting better. I understand the want and will. I'm finally out planting the tulips in containers. At least they are planted. 😊 I agree so much with you on a simpler change. At least you have a husband that doesn't mind changes. Take care. We love you.
Hey Anna!!! I am so glad to see you back but so sorry to hear you were sick and still not quite yourself. It’s good to know Ernie’s home to help and lift your spirits. Your kitchen looks sparkling clean and beautifully decorated. Take care of yourself and enjoy Ernie being home. 😊❤😊
Happy New Year Anna! I like the new camera, seems like a better picture/video. I agree with you on not needing additional winter decor, I would rather spend money on outdoor pretty spring/summer plants and landscaping.
Hi Anna, new subscriber here. I’m so happy I clicked on your video. We have some things in common. Recent empty nester, sold our 3000sq ft home June, 2022. Living in small rental until June, 2024 when we retire to sunny So Cal desert from the PNW. Can’t wait to see more videos. I love your style. PS, I don’t decorate for Winter either. 😊
I’m glad you’re feeling better and I’m totally agreeing with you on home decor for every thing. After all the Xmas decor I just want to get back to the simple decor.
Yay Anna’s back! Missed you but so glad you had a wonderful time with family. Sorry to hear you were sick - you wore me out watching everything you completed today. Have a great weekend! Good job Ernie on the tripod and camera - video was so clear!
Hi Anna! I really enjoy your videos! I have only been following about two months. You have motivated me to clean and organize. 😊🤗I am glad you are feeling better! Happy New Year! 🙏🤗
Happy New Year! Good to see you! Sorry to hear you were sick, I ended up the same way for New Years & just getting back on my feet. You are so right about digging deep, did that today, cleaned, & took the final decor down. I'll reset later....lololol
So happy to see you back Anna!!!! Glad you are feeling better❣️ Taking down Christmas is a beating 😅 ~ It’s funny how it doesn’t bother me to take my client’s stuff down 🤷🏻♀️, but my own absolutely wears me out!!!! 😂 ~ I got the interior done two days ago and the outside yesterday. Today I cleaned and organized the garage because everything had just been dumped in there!!! What a PROCESS it all is!!! Sending lots of ❤️ to you in Tennessee from me here in Texas 🤠 ~ HaPpY New Year Anna!!!! 🥳
Welcome back! Happy New Year to you! Everyone has been sick lately I'm glad you're feeling better. So glad to see you, but take it one step at a time. My theory is that the mess will always be there when you're ready...not sure if that's helpful! Glad you had a wonderful Christmas!
Thank you, Jen! I just watched your video! Thank you for using stuff you already had. I'm inundated with people showing all new " winter" decor. It was nice watching you as usual!
Happy New Year, Anna...sorry to hear you're sick...I know the feeling, been sick since the day after Christmas !! Nothing serious just a bad sinus infection and our south Louisiana weather isn't helping, rainy cold yucky !! Lol Welcome back , we've missed you !! ❤️⚜️🥰
@@homeandgardenwithanna. I don't do winter decor either...here in south Louisiana we celebrate Mardi Gras which officially starts on the twelth day of Christmas, Kings Day !! Lassiez les bon temps rouler ( let the good times roll ) !! ⚜️💜⚜️💚⚜️💛⚜️
@@homeandgardenwithanna. ..the New Orleans crowds are huge, especially for the Super Krewes..but where I live , south west of New Orleans, is more family friendly with smaller crowds...the suburbs of New Orleans are also family friendly with smaller crowds..you can watch some of the bigger parades , what we call the. Super Krewes, on RU-vid... there are content creators in New Orleans who film the parades..I usually watch the local news who have reports from the parade routes.
Happy New Year Anna. So happy you are up and moving.....even if it's slow. Just take each day. I know it upsets you, but don't make yourself nuts. I just pray you stay well and each day you feel stronger my friend. ❤🙏
Happy New Year Anna, everyone seems to be sick this week! Take care of yourself! You were missed! Looking forward to 2024 and all you intend to do, soon the outside will be a priority once again! Love your gardening ideas and plans from last year, this year should be fantastic! You cook book sounds like a great idea, I look forward to it since your dishes look so good!
Hello again. Thank you for the Get Better !! I also have a question. I've probably missed one of your videos.... We have LVP flooring (Luxury Vinyl Planking) . I see you are vacuuming your floor in this video. How do you and what do you use to clean your floors? We have a Bissel Crosswave and I use water/vinegar combo cleaner. I don't feel the Crosswave does a very good job and am not sure what type of a cleaner to use that won't just buildup over time. Thank you for all information you share. A deep cleaning is in line for us too. ♥
Hello and thank you! I have a spin mop I use pinesol and water with. I also Have a mop vac I use just water with. Both work great and I haven't had any build up! Hope that helps.
