This vlog just seems more comforting to me this time around. Your other vlogs are lovely as well, don't get me wrong! This one just hits a sweet spot and is extra lovely. I hope you have a great evening/morning!

Also thank you for linking the Oodie store! Never heard of them but I think I'll buy!

Love opening YouTube to wind down for the night and your video pops up as uploaded 42 seconds ago 🥹 it was meant to be!

I do that with recipes too!! At least if you vlog them here, then you can go back and be like "Oh yeahhh" I need to track my recipes too!!

Honest review on Macro Mike flavours pleaseeee?

Needed your vlog today!
My little one had another seizure Sunday morning, and Sunday afternoon we had to say goodbye to one of our beautiful puppy dogs!
Definitely what I needed tonight ❤❤

I have 2 of the candle warmers on my sideboard and I love them. The candles last much longer and they smell just as good as when you light the candle. As a person with mobility issues it feels much safer for me and I always use the timer as I can fall asleep at the drop of a hat! 😂 Really enjoy your videos 🤗

Hey Ella, people do spend more money on a credit card every month than we would when we use debit cards/our own money. Since switching to our debit card we’ve shaved off around $1500 from our monthly expenses. Credit makes us think about collecting rewards/points which makes us spend more.

Come to Queensland for a coffee 😉🫶

It is hard making friends as you get older! I’m no longer friends with most of the people I grew up with and have made all new friends in my 30s and I really love my new relationships🤗🌸

Love the vlog. I just bought the same hair oil as well! Let us know how you find it, I'm yet to use mine but I bought the hair scrub from the same brand and have liked that the one time I used it!

In your monthly reset, I noticed that you had a date for your mid-year reset, I was just wondering when that will be uploaded.

I started watching YouTube on my Tv but it doesn’t make it easy to comment lol. Intrigued by the candle warmer am I right in thinking you don’t burn the candle using that? I use wax warmers at home scentsy ones I love their scents they are such good quality I have a warmer in every room of the house and my kitchen ones are on all day everyday ❤

We purposely got a credit card at a time we would be spending more money (to get more points) and it took us a couple months to get into the groove of having a credit card. We’ve had it for 3 months now and our spending is back to “normal” because we have completed all of our planned purchases. I would say give yourself some grace and just be sure to keep an eye on the trends!

We also did the calculations and it’ll save us $1000/year using a credit card due to being able to keep that money in our offset for 2 months! (And then points on top!)

[rebeccachurchgerhardt]

I think it’ll just take you a while to adjust to the mindset of having a credit card! For me, cash is fake money and swiping my credit card and seeing the balance go up is what feels painful

You got me onto the salted caramel protein yoghurts - I'd been having the mixed berries one for the longest time but salted caramel is superior (with granola and banana? *chefs kiss*)
