I don't know what it is about these shows, but it always makes me want to clean, and get rid of stuff lol. Of course I know that Hoarding is no joking matter, but the show definitely gets me to cleaning.

Jaycee It's so sad to me when they're elderly and have family that hasn't bothered to step in and help them.

Jaycee Its raining and dark here too. I'm at work and the only parking spot when I got here was on the far end of the parking lot. Usually I'll run out and move my car closer after other people leave. Today I got caught up doing stuff and didn't do it before the rain...

A lot of you are coffee or tea drinkers, and maybe some of you are both. How many of you just take your coffee black and your tea plain? Or, do you load these beverages down with a lot of add ins? I’m neither a coffee nor tea...

Jaycee Tea I usually just add some local raw honey, sometimes a little milk depending on what kind of tea. Coffee I like loads of creamer and some sugar, unless its a flavored creamer and then I can usually skip the sugar.

Jaycee It can be really hard to get help for PPD. There is much less stigma than there used to be but its still there. You even said she shouldn't have her kids because she's mentally ill.

Jaycee I purged SO many shoes it was ridiculous. I seriously donated about 100. I still have too many left, but I'm trying to actually wear what I have so I know what I won't miss.

Jaycee I do think being able to donate rather than trash makes it easier for me. I actually donate through a local high school's band when they do their donation drive fundraiser. Until then its all stored at my husband's recording studio.

Jaycee Sadly she probably doesn't have people in her life to do these simple things with/for her. Its just a short drive for you, but it could be the difference between seeing the doctor or staying home and suffering. For you its a job, for her its her life.

I wanted to share a bit about ODD. It is, IMO, one of the most misunderstood illnesses. ODD affects the part of the brain responsible for impulse control and mood/aggression. Not all kids with ODD will be aggressive or violent....

Jaycee Very true. I usually recommend therapy for the family and parents of a kid with ODD, not just the kid. Not just to learn how to deal with it but to learn how to accept things the way they are and re-train your brain. A child who doesn't grow out of ODD is...

Jaycee When eating with someone else being on your phone is rude IMO. Unless its a true life or death emergency it can wait until after the meal and after socializing with your loved ones.
