welcome to Monday I hope everybody is
having a great start to you guys this
week okay excuse me I woke up sick this
morning thanks to my husband my throat
is so raw
it is so raw I have been taking lost
in-laws Lodge endures I can't even say
it
throat medicine has been helping but it
feels very raw like itchy raw I love my
husband to death but why do you have to
share anyways it's um you know cloud iam
a little little rainy but I guess that's
what you get when your kids are on
spring break they bring the springs what
is it May showers bring spring flowers
isn't that the same well but we're not
in May yet we still have a month and a
half before then oh no little less than
month in half time is fine too fast
um but anyways so I hope everybody is
having a great great start to your
guyses week um I ended up calling into
counselling this morning you guys that's
how sick I was
for the first time in two years besides
when my counselor has either taken the
day off or are like had like a vacation
or because of snow this is the first
time in two years
well almost two years that I have
literally taken off a day because I just
woke up so sick and so that must tell
you something amy is not feeling very
good but it's okay I will survive all he
had to take off and go
mmm so his friend I haven't talked much
about this but his friend that's here in
Salem his brother
so his friend's brother lives in New
Zealand and he was one of the brothers
he was one of the men that got shot in
the terrorist attack along with the
brothers son was shot and killed and so
his friend is actually flying out today
to go be with family he owns a business
so he couldn't go back right away so he
is flying out today so Ollie is helping
run his lot for the time that his friend
is gone so that his friend can you know
concentrate on what needs to be
happening over there
so prayers would be greatly appreciated
during this time for Ali's friend and
you know for all of us it's just a sad
situation you know in hand it's just
really sad but you know anyways okay
enough of that I guess I'll start
watering up here something I needed to
address is something that I needed to
bring up because of the fact that if I
forget then I won't say it well of
course I wouldn't say it if I forgot if
I don't mention it now I'm going to in
African ain't by the end so I wanted to
explain really quick
so I am going to be trying to avoid
putting the kids on camera from here on
out as much as I can they might make an
appearance here and there but YouTube
actually is going around and disabling
comments of channels that have children
involved and I don't want that to happen
because I love talking to you guys and
so I don't want that to be a situation
that happens so the best thing that I
can do is to try to avoid putting the
kids on camera as
just possible like I said they might
make it appearance here and there I know
that you guys enjoy watching them but I
also don't want YouTube to disable my
comments so that you guys cannot talk I
don't know what exactly why they're
doing it I'm not really sure exactly
100% but I just know that they have done
it too quite a few of the Qi well I'm
not gonna lie quite a few I've seen it
on a couple of my channels that I follow
they have disabled the comments because
of the children that are present on the
channel so it's something to do with
anti bullying and bullying or something
I don't know I I have to do a little bit
more research and find out why but some
of these channels would be channels that
you'd be like why are they disabling
comments like nobody would ever say
anything bad about their children but it
happened and they've said it's because
of the children being present in the
videos so me and Ollie had talked about
it and I was like you know I don't know
what I should do because my kids are
clearly always in my videos and all he's
like well you know let's just try and do
it to where the kids aren't in him as
much and hope that YouTube doesn't go
and take them out so I mean you guys
will probably hear them in the
background and stuff like that like
right now I hear mr. Omar walking by but
I'm just not gonna have them up in the
videos which I'm not I don't always have
them in the videos but just trying to
avoid him as much as possible but yeah
that was a little bit of a bummer but
yeah what it is I guess another thing I
wanted to talk about was um I think what
I'm gonna do is because I've been
clearly my channels growing which we
lack in those numbers going up but
clearly I'm having a really hard time
getting back to all my comments because
I've got messages coming through email
through Instagram through Facebook
through YouTube and I love reading them
oh but if I sat and it's you know like
red and
responded back to everybody oh my god
I'd be here all day which I would love
to do but I don't think my family
wouldn't enjoy that very much so what I
think I'm gonna do is I'm gonna pick two
days a week and I'm not sure exactly
which days but what I'm gonna do is take
a little bit of ba-ba-ba-ba take two
days a week and I'm going to do a
response video to messages so I'm gonna
write that down response video to
comments
now if their email messages I will not
respond back on video with those because
usually the email messages are typically
pretty private Instagram if I feel it's
one that you know can be read out loud
then fine but most likely I will be more
of my YouTube messages that I will do my
videos on but I'll probably do them like
probably Wednesday and let's see
probably let's say Wednesdays and let's
see Wednesday Thursday Friday and Sunday
yes honey okay so on Wednesdays and
Sundays to be watching for the videos
that will be a separate video that will
go up off of my vlog they will not be
with my vlog but those will be response
videos to comments that is how you guys
are gonna get responses back to your
guys's comment so make sure you guys are
watching those videos because that's how
you're gonna see what my message is my
responses to your messages are once in a
while I might still pick up my laptop
and read some of the comments on my blog
and if there's one that really stands
out
I might do it on my vlog but otherwise
I'll probably just do it that way um
another thing I think we're going to
change up see I make changes on my
channel clearly all the time another
thing is I'm going to actually do my
lives two lives okay so I'm gonna do two
Thursday's a month I'm writing this down
as I'm telling you guys to Thursday
because I these were things that were I
was thinking but I forgot to write them
down
I will go live to Thursday's a month so
I was gonna do live every week but with
summertime gonna be kicking in life gets
kind of busy and hectic and that I don't
want that to run into an issue so what
I'm gonna do is I will do two lives so
I'll do the first Thursday and the third
Thursday of every month I will be doing
a live so and then if I want to do an
extra live somewhere then I'll just
throw an extra live in there but yeah
I'm gonna definitely change something
yes
first and third Thursday's will be the
the times that I'm gonna go live so I
will do my response videos to comments
on Wednesdays and Sundays I will be
going live to Thursday's a month which
would be the first Thursday and the
third Thursday of every month I will
make sure to do a reminding video like a
commercial video of what the live you
know will be typically about or whatever
um and yeah I'm thinking that's it boy I
had a lot to talk about
I'd love to talk about today um I wanted
to show you guys my newest my newest

need to take but that would I need to
really take to heart is that's yeah
mm-hmm yeah well let's do that one again
when my but well when my mind and body
say enough I will honor them by
listening and resting just because I can
grind 24 hours a day doesn't mean that I
should and that is so true like you know
it's hard it is really sincerely hard to
sometimes it's hard to say no and not
enough and or not not say not enough but
say no and knowing that it I've got
enough going on hmm
and for me I I can go and go and go and
I can work my tail off but at the end of
the day how honestly respectful to my
body of my being by rushing myself and
doing so much and taking so much on when
I really need just some down days in
like today today is a complete down day
like I am dressed in comfy clothes and I
am relaxing all day I'm not doing
anything I'm gonna watch a couple
Netflix movies when all he gets home

just gonna relax like that's what I want
to do today I have been on the go every
day this week I have went out with the
kids I've I've just been going and going
and today is just one of those days that
I'm saying you know what I need a down
date and I really do so I'm gonna take
advantage of it and I'm gonna do it
because that's clearly what I need to do
um but anyways yah I think that is it
for today because my throat is on fire

that I hope you guys are having a plus
