Good morning, guys, and welcome back to my channel and to a power hour speed clean. Just dropped the
kids off at school. And this morning, it was a mad rush to get out of the house.
So there's still breakfast everywhere, all the beds need to be made. This is my current wardrobe
situation. There's just quite a bit of mess in house. So this morning, I'm just going to spend
an hour just cleaning as much as I possibly can, just organizing a few things as well. So I thought
that I would film it. Hopefully, give you a little bit of inspiration. And there's also
so many builders here today. All of our windows and doors are going in
on the extension, so I might also be able to give you a little update, show you how our new bedroom
is looking. So excited. But yeah, hopefully, you enjoy this. I'm just going to run around.
I love this way of cleaning. I feel like if I put a time limit on something, it really does
speed me up. So I'm going to hopefully turn on an audio book, do as much as I can. And hope
you enjoy this video. If you do, give it a like. If you're new, please subscribe. And let's go.
Okay. So first off, I'm starting out in Fraser's bedroom, but this isn't actually Fraser's bedroom
at the moment. He's been sleeping in with his brother. And then me, my husband, and my youngest
son have all been staying in this bed, in this room because of the renovations. We have got
another bedroom that my youngest could stay in, but he'd rather sleep with us. And to be honest,
I'm just enjoying it at the moment. He's five years old, so I don't think it will last for much
longer. But anyway, I just organized the pillows a little bit, and I'm going to give them a bit of
a spray with some Febreze. Our dog Kiki loves sitting on the window seat. It's her favorite
spots because she can watch the world go by, bark at people running past, and stuff. So she really
likes to sit there and have a little lookout. Just going to make the bed, open the windows, sort out
the pillows, and then give it all a little bit of a wipe down, and vacuum in here as well.
Okay. So now I've come into Caleb's bedroom. This is where he and his brother have been
sleeping. I'm going to quickly make the bed. He has a coverless duvet, and I really love it
because it makes making the bed so quick and easy. Also, the cover inside the duvet never
moves, so it's pretty much always ready to go. So I am actually quite enjoying it. So I'm just going
to put that on with the throw cushions. I love these throws as well. If you want to see a whole
room tour on this room, I'll link it down below. This, I think, it is my favorite room. I love
cleaning it. I feel like it's so quick and easy to clean. I'm just going to do a bit of a Febreze,
and then, again, vacuum, and just do a really quick wipe in here. The two bedrooms really
only took me 10 minutes each because they do needed like a tiny bit of tidying up.
And while I'm up here, I'm just going to quickly go into the bathroom. This is what we've all been
using at the moment. And it doesn't really look dirty, but there was loads of lint, and bits,
and toothpaste, and stuff in the sinks. So I was just going to quickly give it all the wipe down.
I also dusted the soap pot itself because it was a bit dusty. Basically, everything's dusty in our
house at the moment because of the renovations. But once I've done that, I'm just going to go
downstairs and just clear up a little bit from breakfast. Sorry. It's a bit fuzzy at the moment,
but as you can see, I'm just loading up the dishwasher, wiping down [inaudible 00:05:48], and
then I'm also going to wipe down the other surface as well, which is my old desk that we're using
in here. I also have a load of snacks out. The boys actually had packed lunches today,
and they were helping me pack the lunches, choose what they wanted. So ended up getting out all the
crisps, basically, to choose them. I'm just going to wipe that down. Just clear this up, really,
so it's just a bit more presentable. And then I'm also going to go our main
living room. This is where we've pretty much been hanging out most of the time.
Got loads of throws. Basically, when we come down in the morning, the boys are always quite cold,
and they always want to have a blanket on. So I've got loads of throws in here so they can
put them on. The dog lives in here as well. So I'm just going to straight in everything out,
wipe down the table. They were doing some coloring before school as well. It's just
a little bit messy in here, and also needs a bit of a vacuum because this is where we eat,
and just it's got like a high traffic in here. Also, going to vacuum the couch. Basically, I
put a little throw on it. I actually took the one off that was on it a minute ago because I'm going
to wash it because the dog hangs out on here, the kids hang out on here. They have snacks on here.
So I'm just swapping that out, and then, going to clear the table, wipe it down, and then vacuum.
I wanted to quickly talk about the vacuum that I'm using because it's relatively new to me. This
is a Dyson Omni-glide. As you can see, it's quite small. It's really light as well. It's perfect for
any hard floors that you can use also on wooden floor or tiles as well. So I love to keep this
downstairs, and just use it for quick cleans. It's great with dust as well. Some of the Dysons don't
like dust, but it's brilliant for that or any crumbs. It can literally suck up Cheerios as well.
So I've really been enjoying using it. They gifted it to me, but this isn't part of any of that. I
just wanted to talk about it because I've had about three or four Dysons in my time. I've got
one upstairs for carpet, and I've got that one that I keep downstairs as well. And apparently,
there is a Dyson robot vacuum now. So I would love to maybe get that one day for our open plan
area. Let me know if anyone has that because I'd be interested to know.
Anyway, found this on the door. Jackson got a new bow and arrow toy, so he obviously was
shooting at the front door. But anyway, as you can see, I'm just tidying up the hallway as
well. There was some dog towels, and shoes, and stuff that needed to be cleared up. And then,
I've come upstairs because this was where I was keeping all of my clothes on the landing
because we don't have a bedroom currently, but I need to now move all of my clothes
into Jackson's bedroom because that door to what will be our room, sorry if this is confusing,
we have to access it because the builders are going to have to start coming into the house
now that our bedroom it's nearly done. I'll show you it in a minute, how it's getting on,
but all the windows and door to the balcony, they're all in.
So basically, I'm just quickly moving all of my clothes out of the way so that everyone
can access it if they need to. It's also a good chance for me to just have a bit of a clear out,
fold things, go through my clothes and stuff, sort out my shoes, and just generally clean
up the landing because it hasn't been ideal having all my clothes out there. Matt managed
to squeeze all of his clothes into Jackson's ward drove, so I've had mine here. It's been fine,
obviously, but I'm just going to move it across so that we can easily get to our new bedroom.
Okay. So that is all of my clothes moved across to the new
place where it's going to sit. There is a little bit of dust in the hallway, obviously,
coming through from that room. So I'm just going to quickly vacuum in here. I'm not going to go
too crazy because, obviously, the dust is just going to keep coming
while we're doing the renovations, and I'm sure we will. Jackson's just come in while I'm voice
recording. You want to say hello? [inaudible 00:12:46]
You're a baby now? Anyway, I'm just going to quickly vacuum. Not being too precious because
I know it's going to be nonstop, isn't it? Anyway. Now that I've cleared this foyer, I wanted to show
you how our room is looking. Right. Okay. So if I take you through to our new bedroom, it is so
bright in there. I know it's the camera as well, but this is going to be our new room, guys. A look
at that beautiful picture window, vaulted ceiling. I've got [inaudible 00:13:19], and
then they've started to plaster, which I showed in the last blog. Our bed's going to go here.
Then, going to have a vanity unit here. That's why there's power. Probably have a big mirror here.
Then this is the door to the balcony. It's in. But the balcony,
what's it called? Balustrade or whatever it's called, it's not in yet. So I probably won't
take you out there just yet. Ms. Jackson. You can see Caleb on the trampoline.
I can see the dog ah Fraser as well. Yeah, it's going to be so nice because even if I'm upstairs,
I'll be able to look out at where the kids are up to, also enjoy the view from this room. Then,
directly across from the balcony door is what will be our walk-in wardrobe. So that is going
to be plastered quite soon. And then this will be our en suite. So if I take you in, it's still,
obviously, a bit of a mess, but I wanted to show you that we've actually changed the window in
here to match the door and the picture window as well. So again, you get the view in here.
Beautiful. We are, obviously, going to have a blind put in because it's a bathroom,
and they're not frosted window. So yeah, we didn't have to get frosted, which is a bit of a result.
So I can't wait. Honestly, it really feels like it's going to happen now. For ages,
it just felt like plans, just felt like a bit of a dream, but now we just need to start painting,
carpet, finish the plastering, get soft furnishings in, and then, yeah, we're
getting there. I'm just so pleased with how this turned out. Getting a big blind for this as well.
This is my new bedroom, guys. I'm literally editing this video right now, and
I realized that there was no outro. So I thought I would just say thank you so much for watching.
I hope you enjoyed it. I hope it motivated you a little bit, and I hope you enjoyed seeing a little
sneak peek into our new bedroom and. Thanks again. And I'll see you in my next one. Bye, guys.
