I didn’t realize my husband was also listening while I watched you…the other day he came up to me at work and said “one of my patients was talking about learning to can and I told her she needed to watch RoseRed Homestead because she’s the best”. I thought you should know that even in a busy medical practice you are loved!!!❤

I love to see someone else talk with their hands! My husband says if you tie my hands behind my back I won’t be able to speak!!

I love it when you laugh during your videos, gives me a huge smile.

When my mom died, I wanted the ancestral Junk drawer. When she remodeled her house, she took the junk drawer from the old kitchen, and moved it into one of the new cabinets. Just took that drawer and put it in a shelf. When I got it, I did the same thing. It wasn't organized, but it had so much important useful stuff in it!

I grew up in a very loving family of 13. Organization was part of survival. It also contributed to harmony in the home. I sit here as a widow and retired banker at age 73 watching you with my day planner and notebook close by on my coffee table. Some habits die hard. 😉Very much enjoyed this video. 👍🏼

I so wish this and finances were a part of school curriculums. I had to learn this as an adult. Thank you for doing this .Your videos are so good.

I grew up in a house without a functioning kitchen. We ate out or used the microwave. I was looking at the garlic and ginger thinking…”I hope she shows me how to peel and cut that! I love fresh ginger!”

I love seeing you both together teaching. Thank you so much. ❤❤

About five decades ago, my dad taught me a fairly simple way to steer a backing trailer the way you want it to go. Instead of placing your hands at 10 and 2 on the steering wheel, use your dominant driving hand to grab the center BOTTOM of the steering wheel. Now, to make the trailer go to the right while backing, move your driving hand to the right. Same goes for moving it to the left. Putting your hand at the bottom of the steering wheel automatically reverses the resulting direction of the trailer, so it goes the way you want it to without thinking about it. Your mutual enjoyment of doing things together is engaging, so fun to watch! Thank you. (PS to Pam, I also have about 75,000 emails built up…)

😂 Old RV fulltimers here, your chat about trailer backing had me in tears!! If you stay married after backing a dozen times you will never divorce! Watching others backing up into a site is great comic relief! You two are SO adorable..love the duo videos!

I absolutely love your classes!! I’m so grateful that I found you. ❤

Making lists for me eases my mind.

Thx for the Handout, for doing this, filming it and sharing it with us.

I love RoseRed Homestead. Thank you for sharing this wonderful video. God bless

When you organize your pantry, you might consider over the door organizer racks like those sold at The Container Store. It increased my pantry capacity by about 30%, which is great!

Good timing. And like you both I planned to move. My whole house was packed except the essential things I needed until my home sold. With prayer I found that right now I am to stay where I am. So I won't get overwhelm with things lying everywhere, every week day I open two packed boxes. And on the Saturdays' I open four pack boxes. I put everything away that I love and need and the rest goes to charity.

One thing I learned over the years of cooking is get all ingredients before beginning to cook instead of looking for things as you cook…it is imperative to a successful meal. Now I have to apply that to everything else I do …thank you for this video.

I love the happy music at the beginning!!!!!😊 I’ll have to watch later because I’m at work and only on a 10 min break 😁

Rose , that black jumper looks so nice on you , maybe the aqua jewellery sets the black off .

Jim and I have a similar experience with our military fathers, "do as I say' My father did give me discipline which served me well all of my life. I learned from others as well. I also was a factory worker who got paid by 'piece work' so I developed techniques that got the work out and carried this attitude over to my home to save time. Time was the factor to 'getting organized'. I was working, raising a child, building a home, I was forced to get organized. Yes, I used a list, It is amazing how much more work can get done with a list.

THANK YOU for being wise enough to NOT show us you cutting your vegetables!!!! I HATE channels that show cutting, unless they are professionals who do it super fast and accurate. You just earned a subscriber!!!!

The variety of topics in your videos never ceases to amaze me. It’s always something useful and timely. Thank you… and the camaraderie you share makes me smile. Jim, your description of backing up a trailer hit close to home…I remember many times that I stood behind our trailer giving sometimes incorrect hand signals and praying to the good Lord that we didn’t take a tree down as it was backed in.😊 I appreciate you both!

My husband learned to back up a trailer by placing your hand on the bottom center of the steering wheel and turn the wheel ( keeping your hand and not moving your hand) the way you want to go. Keeping your hand on the bottom and if you want to go right, turn your hand to the right.

Love the way y’all interact with each other❣️

Thank you for introducing me to Steramine. My son is immunocompromised. I cook all his meals and wash all his vegetables. He has never gotten sick from any meal eaten at home. Restaurant food has not been so forgiving.

Any time I'm organizing a project or event my motto is Think It Through! And list out every little detail. Great job Rose & Jim!

Gosh… I’ve been watching you guys for almost a year… You’re adorable… Additionally, you have a really good basis, it’s obvious you research things before you give the information out… I just wish more people would understand this… I would love to meet you both… Are you considering having guests on your channel? If so, please let me be your first… I can promise you I am your biggest fan.!!!🎉

I so enjoy seeing you both smiling and laughing. The act of organizing/staying organized is a real challenge for me. Growing up Iwas not given chores nor was I really taught any organizational skills. Doing my best to learn at a not young age lol. Enjoyed the lesson and got the printout. TY!

I’m definitely a list maker, started as a kid. I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult. Love your ten principles

I enjoy your classes I learn so much. I re-watch them and take notes. My mother always taught us you need to have schedule she believed it gave children a sense security and accomplishment. It was the way I was raised and I raised my children this way. People always comment to me how did get my children to do chores without arguments I just answer they know what there responsibility are and they know what is expected of them. It simple concept.

Great class! Decades ago I was told by my Managing Director that I was an organizer and a planner! I took that as a compliment! Now, after having been retired for a long time, I realize that I have let some of those patterns go! I want to get the organizing and decluttering going!! Thanks for the reminder on how to organize! Be blessed!

I have a 32gal junk tote. I have been organizing with totes, but I can only get a couple at a time. So the big sort tote really helps, and will be repurposed at some point. It'll likely be replaced with a small tote, because there's always "junk".

I am enjoying your classes. The two of you are so funny. Love your classes.

Thank you so much for taking the time to make this. You are both so amazing. Such a generous and perfectly delivered piece of work. I am trying my best to be more organised and one of the things that has always pulled me back was trying to be perfect in everything that I do. I discovered that striving for perfection is good but that it has hindered me so badly in my work to the point that I wasn’t being very productive at all. I resonated with quite a bit of the things that you mentioned, even the smaller things like getting into the habit of making the bed every morning. I am so thankful for this video.

This is an area where I really need help on!! So I’m very grateful for your video! Thank you to the both of you ❤️💕🙏🏼

What a treat. You are both so smart. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us. I love organization. Fellow list maker here. ( and addict)😅😊😊😊❤

I LOVE that you experiment! My husband and I enjoy watching as you come up with answers! It’s helped us to learn and make decisions for our household. I, too, MUST have a decluttered kitchen to function. When I was studying for my BSN degree, I had to have order to my immediate environment in order for my study time. If my counters are cluttered in the kitchen, I can’t cook until everything is cleaned up and in its place. My husband evidently has a mission to dirty every knife, pot, and dish while cooking and has no problem working over the mess! Did I mention he doesn’t do dishes!??? Needless to say, I stay out of the room until the dust settles! He’s a pretty nice guy and handy to have around….he’s 6’7 and knows how to fix things so, guess I’ll keep him!😂😂😂

I am taking notes and putting it on the wall! Organized environment, organized thoughts....

Needed this! Raised in an organized household….being trying my best all of my life! So hard.

This is very appropriate! As I'm listening to you, I'm reorganizing my pantry!!

I agree with you about having the counters free of clutter when making a video and having your food already prepped. One thing I don't like to see when others are cooking is having a dog or cat in the kitchen. Thank you for this video.

#4 our saying is not to let the excellent get in the way of the good. Seeking impossible or very longwinded perfection means you may not get the benefit of settling for just ‘good’. Because I do that !

I needed this class. Thanks very much!!!

Wonderful video! I too am a list maker for Everything, especially on my daily to do's.

I have heard it said that organization is the key of highly effective people.

I love your energy. I M THE WORLDS BIGGEST PROCRASTINATOR.

Awesome video and it just so happened to pop up while i was thinking about organizing the barn. That was a very productive hour for me. 😂❤ i also cannot cook with a dirty kitchen, i literally refuse and will clean it .. eat whatever, i dont care. Lol. The seasons make the barn kitchen active..and i had all these different fertilizers, grilling stuff, animal foods.. everything in total disarray. Feels much better already. Thank you! ❤

Pam, I’m in my 60’s and still working on these skills. I’d love to have my pantry as organized as yours is… likewise for the junk drawers. It is truly a gift to be a natural organizer. My ADD brain is all over the place. I love things to be organized, but struggle with getting them there. I have not given up, though. A big part is letting go of doing it the ‘right way’ and just finding what works.

Emails. I have different emails for different things. It's great when you dealing with bills, families, subscriptions, job.

Love your beautiful necklace!

You are both such great educators, thank you! But Jim does have you beat Pam on talking with his hands😂😂

Yup…I’m one of those organically Natural organizers …. … not sure I could teach anyone how to do it as I don’t think twice about it.. 🤷🏼‍♀️ ….it’s not even goal oriented…it’s just who I am and how I roll…although I can navigate through it, I’m not comfortable in chaos but challenged by it just the same and I’m continuously sorting and organizing along the way… it’s almost like a game to me lol… I love to multitask and see how many balls I can keep in the air 😉…. I don’t analyze things as a whole..I just do as I go with the flow… I may be organized but I’m not anal about it. 😐

This was fun...thanks!

It is nice to see Jim joining you for this video. I need to learn new habits. I am one that can find order in my disorder, but with age I am now forgetting where in my disorder are the things I need. My pantry is the first that was organized but still working on it so this class is perfect timing.

I love your lessons and learn so much. Organisation’s calms me down but I never knew where to start and how to continue. Now after your lesson I got the tools how to do it. Osnat Laster israel

My lists are groceries, and daily to do!

Great topic. I typically be myself as fairly organized and, like you, when shut upon a task, I tend to be hyper focused on it until it is as complete as I can make it. However, I have been struggling to apply these principles, especially habit building, at the big picture scale , particularly relating to how to turn many of these preparedness activities into a regular lifestyle. Having the time to do things like make freshly baked bread or can can or get out of the garden. Seems to be more of a treat because my everyday life is so busy. And on the occasions when I can try to dedicate a big block of time to getting something done, my wife sometimes gets mad about me dedicating some free time to these things It would be interesting to see these principles, especially habit building for a preparedness mindset, applied on A real world lifestyle, especially for those of us who work a typical 9:00 to 5:00 job with two kiddos at home, and still having the time to dedicate to family and relaxation

In reference to backing a trailer and this comes from backing my boat trailer. I use my side mirrors on the vehicle for one and I have found that I turn the steering wheel toward the tire that I want to turn. So I don't have to look over my shoulder I just look in my side mirrors and the tire that I want to turn I turn the steering wheel toward that tire basically that side of the trailer.

My husband and I try to park our motorhome where we can watch people back boat trailers in the dock! It is so funny! It takes lots of practice! And it takes a team working together! sometimes we have to back our 42 foot motor home into our spot, we have learned how to do it well! We Talk on phone , me outside and him driving motorhome. We work well Together . Some People do not!

I was doing some organizing today. I’m having knee surgery in a month and want everything ship shape lol. Perfect timing for this video and lots of good info!

Oh, Ms. Pam, I sure NEEDED this video. I took my sons bedroom, after he moved, and made it into a formal pantry. And, then moved, and moved stuff, until I was ready to cry. When I finally stopped and said. Bread/Grain here, Veggies, HERE, and meats/proteins here etc., was when the mind boggling craziness, stopped. It just came together. And it was fast. But, my kitchen pantry, - grab and close the door 😆. You just inspired me to get it done. But, this time, in order-ish.

Thank you both for sharing this video. Love the playfulness between the 2 of you.

Love a well-crafted checklist! So satisfying to check off the completed tasks. ✔

I love this class. Thank you for the information

FYI… You probably know this already, but I would want to know this if it was me. When you went to your first cooking example, your audio changed. It was much richer before. Love this class!!

Yes! Organization and routine are key. Im always surprised when people say they don't how to do it.

Good class with good ideas! I, too, need to have no dishes when I awake & I have to make my bed. The lock downs drove me crazy because of trying to store some emergency supplies plus hurricane readiness so at this time I feel still overwhelmed. Thanks😊

Thank you Pam and Jim! A great topic

Great class! Thank you.

Team teaching at its best.

Love your channel. Jim you’re doing a great job. ❤

Thank you for the inspiration.

I really needed this! I love all of your videos! My favorite is when you laugh! Also you look really good in black!

Thank you so much! I have been hoping for a video on this. I was so organized at the beginning of the year, but life happened, and now I have to reorganize some things. Your advice will help.

I just love your videos! Thank you for all that you and Jim do. I absolutely agree with Lists. I too do a food/menu/shopping/packing list for our camper trips. The first one is always a doozy, getting them back together after de-winterizing is quite the list.

great class, thank you

I need to organize my preps! Everything is in bins! Not even sure what I have!

I so agree and am thankful with every aspect of this video. You both have a wonderful sense of humor with each other:) I love Jim's 2 pens in his shirt. In my life and younger days I have known several engineers as well as brilliant Aspergers who always had pocket protectors full of pens, pencils, slide rules etc. LOVE it!!!! +JMJ+

love your videos!!!

Thank you.

Thank you both. I really enjoyed learning just love you both

I LOVE love love the entro 😄💗

I ❤ YOU! Your pantry looks like mine. Two of my three junk drawers are similar. I reorganized one and decided the other two didn’t need to be.

Thank you for sharing . I very much enjoyed this video , thank you both . 🇬🇧💛🤍

This was a very good step by step how to...but (referring to myself)...there is an emotional and mental component to accomplishing organization. My mother was a bit of a hoarder and you don't throw things out because "someday, you or someone may needed it". I lived in hidden piles of clutter of stuff in extra rooms, closets, and storage units. Trying to make a decision on what to save, throw, donate, or preserve to pass down causes extreme anxiety and possibly a panic attack. My personality is that of a severe minimalist, but I live in clutter. My strong ADD issues affect the mental component, my mother-in-my-head dictates the emotional component. Any ideas on how to conquer these issues? I can't be the only one.

Excellent, thank you

Helpful! Enjoying your channel!

I went through the same thing after our kitchen remodel. We gutted the whole thing and even removed a wall. Our pantry, that was outside of our remodel. It became a huge mess. I only have 4 drawers now so I had to downsize the junk in my drawers. Gave lots of stuff away!

Great information

You and Jim are a hoot together. 😅 A suggestion on backing up a trailer ... put your hand on the bottom of the steering wheel. The trailer will turn in the same direction as your hand. Also, when we camp with our longer trailer, we use two-way radios, especially when it's getting dark. 😊 Tell Pam that I wish my pantry looked as nice as her disorganized one 😅 Time to put that chore on my to-do list. Guilt by association. ❤

I love lists. I make lists of lists to make. ❤

This interesting! I just got in from trying to clean and organize one of my sheds. I had to move fast so things were thrown into boxes by many friends so I have no idea what is in what box. We put all that into the shed and after barely moving in I moved again so more boxes then surgeries and I have been procrastinating getting all that sorted. Many things have been replaced. I just worked till I wore out and will attack it again tomorrow. That is hard because organizing around such disorganization it tough! I got part of the floor clear so one step in the right direction! This is a job that no one else can do. Darn!!!

If you haven't already heard it, I think you both would really get a kick out of the song "The Kitchen Junk Drawer" by singer-songwriter Michael Longcor. Very cute song! A video of him playing his guitar and performing it is available free on YT. 🙂

I love your music

You left the second R out of the appropriately on number 6. Oops sorry. I spent too many years of proofreading at a local newspaper. Love the video. Great strategies for organizing.

I love your video's and am in the midst of cleaning out a middle room. Funny in a 1930 house closet space is non existent, but I bought for the Moldings, floors and charm. Picture a Main Bedroom with no closets and on the entire 1st floor 1 closet. I made the downstairs closet into a pantry over the winter, but I will watch this video as Middle room has 2 closets but I need space. Thank you

😊🎉

Thank you for reminding me to make lists, that works best for me. The sound is difficult with this video, never experienced that with your videos before.

I used to have nice clean house until I met my future husband who is a hoarder and has a lot of anxiety in an uncluttered space, so he promptly started surrounding himself with trash that it frustrated me to no end. I started trying to pick his mess which only increased anxiety for both of us. I stopped picking up after him, now our house is a mess because he can't let go of old car parts that he no longer has the car to put them on. He had them in a storage unit until he got laid off. So he moved the junk into my den and now I can barely get into the room to use my computer.

Very nice presentation. Shared with others. Thanks
