Sunday Vlog | Organizing our closet with items from the TikTok Shop

Introduction

On this special Sunday, we're thrilled to celebrate our beloved golden retriever, Hillary, who's turning 8! As we reflect on how Hillary has been a part of our lives since I was just 19 years old, it's a poignant reminder of both her age and our journey together through my twenties. This marks her birthday, and while we’ve tried to make Carter's days special as well, today is all about Hillary.

After our heartfelt morning, I greeted everyone with a cheerful "good morning" and shared about our daily lives. For those new to our vlog, I'm Sean, and alongside my partner Tyler, we document our journey, including our exciting plans of expecting a baby soon. Today is November 3rd, a day filled with mixed emotions as Hillary celebrates another year with us.

Closet Organization Project

Throughout the day, we engaged in some much-needed organization. I decided to embark on a closet-cleaning mission, focusing on our bedroom closet. We've purchased some cute storage units from IKEA and TikTok Shop, so the goal was to sort through my hoodies, jackets, and an overwhelming amount of sweatpants and find a better system for everything.

  • Cutting Down on Clutter: We've developed a system where our hoodies and white jackets will reside in our main closet while the sweatpants will be placed in a different spot.
  • Sweatpants Inventory: As I sorted, I discovered I have an extensive collection of sweatpants and even some with tags still on. Despite their original price, I couldn't let go of any just yet.

Later in the day, we paid a visit to Dunkin'. Tyler wanted to try the cookie butter latte, and after our stop, we picked up my grandma. We spent a lovely afternoon together, listening to her stories, and celebrated her upcoming 82nd birthday.

Back at home, the cleaning spree continued. We used new bins we bought to organize our laundry room, making it look far more presentable. Tyler also surprised me by tackling some parts of the closet project as well, and we managed to set up a shelving unit we purchased from TikTok Shop.

Evening Routine

As the day wound down, we took some time to engage in our nightly card game. Each day, we've been working through our 365 questions for couples, which has led to interesting conversations. Tyler and I both shared our responses about what brings joy to our lives, emphasizing simple pleasures like our pets and shared moments.

To conclude, this Sunday was full of sincere moments, organization efforts, and the realization of how much our lives are about to change soon with the baby on the way.
