Me too! Thanks for your help, mama!🥰😘

You are amazing! I miss my mama. So glad B has you!

I can see where Bonnie gets her hard work ethics and determination from. Enjoy seeing you both help eachother and your exchanges together are just wonderful! You are an amazing mom and raised an amazing daughter! Thank you both for helping and helping the viewers too!

I think what your daughter is doing for all of these wonderful people is so admirable. She quite obviously cares with her whole heart. I suffer from PTSD and a lot of childhood trauma that I’m working hard on with a lot of help and I think for me the one constant on my journey is the complete absence of any kind of judgement because in reality, no one wants to be at risk and now at 39 and having severe degenerative disc disease and 2 botched spinal fusions and more surgeries to come. No one chooses trauma. We all deal with things in many different ways but at the end of the day we are all humans. I absolutely love watching these videos for what your daughter does and you as well ❤ but it also helps to not feel so alone. Very inspiring all the way around ❤ you’re all a true blessing

Mean people can just suck it. ;) You did a great job!

You are a mega cleaning machine 😊 I’d want you to clean my house, trouble is I live in England ! Good job Lisa ❤

Thanks, Lisa! It was fun working with you! You're a powerhouse! We'll do it again soon!!💜❤️🥰

you two have the golden arms

We'll spin kick em out of the room! 😂​@@jonfen1657

🥰🙏

IKR!!!!?💕🌟💕🌟💕🌟💕🌟

Yup, it's weird. At least for every criticism, there's at least 2 to 300 other people who are very encouraging.😊❤️

Love to watch you & listen to you explain the what, why & how of your process. In this video I loved that you had help. It's a lot to do for one person. Your mom is awesome. And, Lisa. It's fantastic that you gave her the chance to help a person also.

I find it weird that they criticize- the whole concept of helping others seems to escape these people

Me, too!

I agree with your statement about the human body and psyche not being "equipped to endure unending high levels of traumatic stress without periods of recovery." Very well said. I'm so glad you're in a better place and I hope "Julie" can get there. If you are just starting this series of her house, you will see by the last one that things did not end up very well as hard as we tried, but I'm still holding out hope she will get the therapy she needs to truly deal with this disorder.

😊❤️🙏

Also have a look at another channel in this circle of cleaning angels: Coline Cleans. She is in Holland.🇳🇱

Yes, I'm learning that is a big part in helping these individuals. They need to feel listened to and understood before they can really trust you enough to actually help them. I think so often people would come in and just toss everything out because it's not valuable to them, but that just re-traumatizes the person to whom it is valuable to. It's sad that so often their voice has not really been heard.

Absolutely right. We ALL fall short somewhere. That's what our Savior is for. 🥰🙏

@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp I most certainly know how hard it is to ask for help. My clothing has been in disorderly heaps for AGES. But tonight we (my hubby and I) grabbed a BIG trash bag and filled in all the clothing that I no longer wear (nor do they fit), but they were too good to trash. So tomorrow my friend gets TWO big bags of clothing to look at. (And I told her another friends name who can take, what she can't use). It feels SO good.

That's so awesome! It DOES feel so good!

Was I? I actually don't remember being that apologetic in this one, but it's very possible. Still getting that confidence. Thank you for your kind words!💕

True. Never complain, never explain.....no need.

​@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wpyou're doing a million times better with the not apologizing.

your mom raised a winner

Yes, honestly, all the talking was hurting my brain. 😬It has been better the last couple times I've been there as I have been working in the basement and more by myself or with one other person.

​@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp Would wearing noise canceling headphones (when the noise becomes too much) help? Maybe something you can try 🤷🏼‍♀️

Whos the other lady?

@@jeanchecefsky3791 that's Bonnies mom☺

I agree. Even with the video being sped up is driving me crazy 😮 God bless you for helping her ❤

Thank you so much!

Agreed!!

Thanks, Tracy! I'm glad it inspires you. 😊❤️

Yep, you described perfectly the type of scenario that I envision when people leave negative comments. I never feel bad for deleting those remarks because they didn't even take the time to watch the video and I can tell from their comments. So...buh-bye! 😊

That's the best reason to pause a video.😄 I love that it motivated you! I also will put on one of my favorite cleaning channels while I am cleaning to casually watch and listen to because it helps to motivate me. It's kind of like I'm cleaning with a friend.🤗❤️

I carry my phone around with me while dusting room to room while playing cleaning videos and set phone on mantel, hutch ect... great company and motivation and get to watch in between dusting pictures and knick nacks ect., folding laundry, doing dishes, ect. , I end up looking for things to do to finish a video! tks Bonnie! (Mack, Barbie, Mira!) (Coline too!) You each have your gifted Super Powers that motivate us, but you are all incredible making the transformations happen! Gives us all hope looking at our weekly, daily, monthly, yearly messes and awesome cleaning tips too!

Thank you! I think next time I work there, I'm going to try to pick an area to work on with some earbuds and music on because I definitely have had a lot of anxiety with all of the constant chatter while working there, but I knew it was kind of necessary especially in the beginning to have that much help and that much input from the homeowner, but now that I know a little bit about what our goals are, I feel like I can work a little bit more on my own and get a lot of organizing into categories done.😊

Thanks so much, Coline. 💜I think we wore her out this last week, so we may need to take a break this coming week and then get back to it. I certainly wouldn't mind the break either. This has been a big job. But I also don't want to lose momentum, so it's a tough call. I guess we will play it by ear.😊

Right?!😄

"Irrationally excited..." 😅 I love it!❤️

Thank you so much!

Lol... thank you!😄

Love that!

Thank you, Caroline! 🙏💜

Thank you, Lisa.😊❤️

Wow, thank you

One thing you can be sure of is that messy people or hoarders do not want to live like that. It’s just overwhelming and it’s hard to make decisions where everything should go. The clutter is part of their disorganized mind. (. Speaking about myself here. Not really a hoarder but very much a clutter bug. Also many work long hours and are exhausted when they get home.

Oh, thank you so much! I'm glad you're here!

Thank you so much!

Oh thank you! I haven't even thought of magnets in a merch shop. That's a great idea! Thank you for sharing that idea!❤️😊

While we're on the topic of merch ideas, you might want to use this one from my dear mom... "I just love work -- I could watch it all day." 😀 Thanks for all you do, Bonnie. Keep being you, and God bless you! 🙏🕊

Of course. It is a hard thing to understand and I still don't completely get it, but I'm trying.

I was actually losing my mind a little bit with all the chatter. I had to make other arrangements the other times that I went over there to make sure that I wasn't surrounded by so much talking. It was kind of necessary those first couple of days just because we had limited room to work in and a lot of people helping, so just discussing how to do things was necessary. It wasn't easy though.😬

I like watching Mira too

I appreciate it!🥰

Good morning!

Quick win!😁

Midwest Magic Johnny...LOL! Thanks for being here!

😄

That's the hardest part about this is figuring out what to do with those parts of the video because, I can leave the video sped up and mute the clip, but nobody likes it when I add music and I don't have enough to say with a voiceover to be able to talk the whole time. So, it's either just complete silence or I tell everyone to not talk while we are cleaning. It is a lot easier to edit video when I am just working on my own, which is why I usually prefer that, but I can't really do that with this house. Figuring out how to make videos that please everyone is so hard. That's why I apologized right in the beginning that there was going to be some sped up voices because I knew that was annoying to a lot of people, but I just don't know what else to do. But, thank you for the feedback. If I ever quit youtube, it will be because of the editing and trying to please everyone. I may need to take a poll to see what most people prefer...sped up talking, music, voiceover about something random, or silence. Or maybe I leave it at normal speed and have a super long video...or cut out even more. 🤷‍♀️I know I am way overthinking this, but that's what my mind does with feedback. I just want to make good videos! 😓 Time to create a poll...

Unfortunately, I have to agree. It actually made my anxiety spike. But, I do love what you do. Great job!

I went to your channel and sub'd!! I want to watch you draw & stuff!! I love art, painting, collages, coloring, drawing, etc. So your channel looked liked sonething I might like!!👍👍💕

Thank you!

Oh, yes! I remember saying, "Angus?" on the live because I wasn't sure if I was reading it correctly because I figured you were female, and that just didn't fit. That makes sense now.😅 Well, I'm certainly not going to call you "that old lady from the live."😁 So, what is your name?

Me, too. Thanks!

I have decided it is up there with schizophrenia as far as one of the worst mental disorders. It really disrupts so many things and, not only is it usually caused by trauma, but it can traumatize all of those involved in the hoarder's life. I totally understand going the exact opposite direction growing up in a house like that and yet I also understand how that just becomes the norm and you just continue living like that. It's such a difficult thing to treat and so sad to watch what it does to the hoarder and their family.😔

Love mom saying…shouldn’t we put the stuff with tags on in a separate bin? She’s in my tribe. Lol

Bonnie, I saw a cleaner use a pool noodle to fill her dish tubs. It worked! It’s like a faucet extender!

@@LaurelChinnRealEstate-Fairfax 😂

Aw, thanks!

Even getting on my knees is painful and I'm 46! She is having a harder time getting up from that position, but she's still doing amazing!

Boy you sure said it! I am from Canada too and can’t stand paper bags! But even worse, I have totally boycotted paper straws, and wooden cutlery! Once I start venting about it I can’t quit! lol I am all for keeping the earth safe but the whole straw thing , it drives me crazy! You get an iced cap from Tim Horton’s with a paper straw! Come on! Just ridiculous! ❤❤❤❤ Ok I am done! Lol

Very true!

Thanks for sharing!😊

Thank you so much!

😁

Yes, absolutely. I do my best cleaning when I'm just alone and in my zone, but in a situation like this, you have to take all the help you can, which unfortunately, can be super overwhelming to my brain and sometimes it's hard to even think straight to know what to do next. But, I'm sure it's even harder for Julie to let people come in and touch all of her things, so I can't complain about not being able to work alone. I think I will suggest next time I'm there that I just take a room, put in some earbuds, and just work on that space so that I can really focus well.😊

Ty for the tip... I have iridescent on my fireplace glass doors forever now! I've finished glass off for years this way. At least I know why now! I will be sure to pass this along to others! Thankyou!

I didn't know that. I'm sure many people have ruined their fireplace fronts by doing that because it is, after all, glass. Who would have thought you can't use glass cleaner on it? I'm trying to remember if I have ever done that. I don't think so as I usually just wipe it real quick with my dusting rag after I have dusted everything else. Thanks for the tip!

Yes, I'm sure that had a lot to do with my frustrations on editing this one particularly. I wish it was just limited to that one. Unfortunately, even on smaller projects, it has been super slow since they updated their software and added in AI tools... which I don't even use. And they won't downgrade me to the old version like I asked them to because I'm on a subscription plan.😞 What software do you use for editing? There are a lot of them out there, but only a few that I can actually use on my PC since most of the simpler ones are meant for editing right on your phone and that just doesn't work with what I'm doing.

When my dad was 80 he was on my roof cleaning my gutters. Amazing what they do right? 😊

That's amazing! I do think being outdoors is just good for your soul as well. ❤️

Thanks so much! 😊

Thanks so much! It has been a rough couple of weeks, but it's finally out.. haha! Thanks for the support!

Thank you! And, no, her dishwasher didn't work. I forgot to mention that in the video. They really just use it as a drying rack.

Great analogy!

Absolutely. Somebody can be on top of the world one day and then get sick or have some traumatic event happen and it turns their life upside down. That's why I encourage people not to judge these situations because, this lady used to be pretty neat and tidy until all of the multiple traumatic events. So, you just never know. I'm sorry to hear about your covid complications. My best friend is still dealing with long covid and it has been a nightmare for her. It's been almost 3 years and she is still nowhere near what she was like before covid. It really did a number on some people.😢

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much!

I hadn't noticed the burn spot looking like a dog, probably because I was so focused on the burned center looking like an "outty" belly button.😁
