But the sound is low somehow

You've got that right

So true! Now there is this whole minimalist movement - opposite ends of the spectrum!

@@shirleyrowe4078that is progress

@@shirleyrowe4078 I am a senior and I am experimenting with minimalism and I am getting rid of lots of things, just keeping what I use and love. What a wonderful difference this has made in lowering my stress load and my work load. I am really loving it.

So do people in the deep south (In the US)

Right? Everything looks good! The hair, makeup, colours

How did your challenge go?

@princessaeb44 I haven't been able to do my challenge yet. I think it will be after Labor day.

I'm eager to learn what you learned

I'm in uni and I don't even own a cell phone...but I do use my laptop for school (and youtube :P). As long as school was not ongoing, I would have no problem with this challenge. But most people wouldn't be ok I suppose. I sort of feel sorry for most people for that reason. They seem so helpless and dependent...and easily manipulated. As you say, they couldn't function if something went wrong with their phones. I'm just not interested in that life.

...the only way to know is...to try! If you REALLY want it, you CAN! Be brave! Go! Go! Go! helene :))

maybe he doesnt want it... these shows are draining and they will take a toll on you..its not all sweet n all

@@annegraham2015 If he doesn’t want it, then that’s his loss. If he rejected it, then I can’t believe that he was, and possibly would be stupid enough to make that mistake.

Perhaps those shows couldn't offer him enough money or control. Or his schedule didn't fit with their schedule. You don't know the facts behind his decisions.

@@TheLiberty1999 Peter was always a control freak by nature. I think he was always that way, because he was incapable of handling adversity, stress, obstacles, envy, grief, disappointment, tragedy, defeat or inconvenience. Plus he couldn’t stand to fail, get frustrated, or antagonized in front of his fans, friends, family and associates, and was prone to high blood pressure, ulcers, migraines, claustrophobia, and other health issues. Whenever something didn’t go his way, or he wasn’t feeling well it was always his way of getting around it. Now I am beginning to realize that he has an aversion to these (hoarding) shows. If he was very sincere about his aversion, then he shouldn’t be on television or in the media anymore, and should not have agreed to be part of that Clean Sweep show (and similar shows) in the first place, because that’s where it’s going to get him eventually, plus he should be automatically and permanently disqualified from having his own show and making further media and television appearances as a professional organizer, or behavioural psychologist, at least until he retires or pursues a career in something else. I don’t think he’s really in the business, because he likes decluttering, and helping people create a better vision for a healthy organized space at all, nor his interested in solving problems for families and married couples. He only gets involved in these types of projects for the sake of money, fame and power, for entertainment purposes.

@@ElChupacabra77BOUCH!😵‍💫

people had no problem growing up without those things at all

so we know that guy isn’t his dad.

to acknowledge the boy's father, who might still be in his life?

That would be encouraging to know :) helene

Ouch. I’d hate to look like him. Have you seen the documentary about the Duggar family? Not a nice man.

@@kathygann7632 Yes-I watched all four parts. “Creepy” doesn’t even begin to describe. Every time Michelle opens her mouth I feel like women take another step back. Luckily that one girl was able to learn to think for herself and marry someone supportive and escape. The others, I’m sure, won’t be so lucky

Clearly depressed and overwhelmed. I admire her strength to share her shame. I've been there.
