Trying (and Failing) to Be Productive at the ordinary | Productivity vlog Ep 1

My sink is full of unwashed dishes from days before

but that is neither here nor there for now

New routine: starting my day woth ginger shots

cheers

It's not strong which means I put less ginger

Back inside the empty fridge

The only way I can comfortably start this day is if i clear out the sink

Truly, does anyone know how to remove the stains from the chopping board?

How am I going to start my day if my burner is dirty?

My blender broke cos I was making the ginger shots

I bought this bowl for onions and fruits only... why???

sometimes I wish my house had more storage

That way, the counter would look more minimalist with my coffee machine🤗

Maybe one day , I'll stop bragging about my gift

but my life and time have been drastically changed by this

so i'll stay here for a while

for the first time in probably a year, or months, I'm having oats

I genuinely think that the chia seeds have gone bad.

they have a certain smell but i'll take the risk today

since I stopped eating oats, my raisins have been feeling neglected

let me not even get started on my almond flour

i'm watching sex and the city and these girls are hilarious😂

why did I even cut this orange like this??

My life in Kitui comprised of this breakfast- 3 years ago

because I stopped buying food in bulk, I'm forced to eat what I have left

I stopped sitting at my desk cos my tailbone hurt so much every time

Now that I'm not working, the couch could be better

I thought I should have added honey, but the oranges and raisins are ok

I bought a new pot and later realized that I didn't have soil

Welcome to the mess that I left when unboxing yesterday

This box contains my new ipad paper like covers

my soil less plants

It rained almost five days ago, why is this umbrella still here?

it is really things like these that make me wonder

If I have been busy or i'm just lazy

This stain is really irksome especially when I can find the solution on Google

I'm not sure I'll be buying a new chopping board anytime soon

As usual, get clean dishes from the dishwasher

My thing is finding fulfillment in the small things

Even when it looks boring or expected

more than seeing it as just a chore, i'd like us to find joy in the mundane

I wanted to make sweet potato wedges

but I realized too late that I had cut them into strips

I bought a new baking sheet and I thought it was like my old one

I'm cutting it into two to save some paper

I dont know how else to make this,

so I do what feels right

and throw it in the oven

and you might want to ask, 'Betsy, if it's sweet, why are we adding salt?'

but I like the taste😅

I saw my cousin posted an omelet and I got cravings so here I am

I feel like I have been eating this spinach forever

and I make so many only to end up with barely a handful

Here I am forgetting about my eggs 🤦🏾‍♀️

I almost forgot about the sweet potatoes as well

Now that I've become an ingredient only house, I am forced to cook

or order in but for financial reasons, I don't do that

ok so I was going all in on protein today.

cos i only had oats today with coffee

how am I going to eat again after this?

I've already spent a big part of the day binge watching

I've been putting off leaving the house for a while now

I'm not even changing, just putting on top of what I have

and the trash that desperately needs to be thrown out

I only have two hands?? how does this work?

I'm never putting this off again.

what about the glass bottles?

I put the bottles inside my tote bag. can you hear the jingle?

made it to the mall!! First activity; get some soil

it's at night so there's not many people

I could comfortable place my camera and walk around🙈

I also bought a plant supporter cos they tend to bend sometimes

came to Auchan and saw these wafers. ( I have been dreaming about them)

This is actually what I came to buy and it waas the last one

I contemplated hard but decided to go to the Asian store

I wanted to eat this badly in the tram but I'm back home

There was either strawberry or this milk so I'm not sure about the taste

it's actually nice, eating milk with milk

This ended up being my dinner

Am I up early or is it just a sunny day?

Probably not cos the sunrise is at 8:30am ish

I haven't opened my computer in forever and I need to check some emails

please pray for my tail bone😭

My productivity won't spike by sitting on this relatively comfortable couch

Yup turns out I still receive work emails

Even though I'm not going to work

This is such an uncomfortable position please

Why am I forgetting things?

chia seeds

I'm not sure what to have for breakfast, so I'm having the probiotic

it's sugar free so adding some jam

I'm pretty sure that this had gone bad but I can't see it yet soo

i have to finish it

so skip straight to lunch?

cut chicken into strips

Did I really eat the whole pack of wafers last night?

of course i'm hungry🤦🏾‍♀️

I've never made bok choy before so I'm honestly not sure what to do

scraping off the plastic

I've seen people putting it in whole? so i'll do the opposite?

I always see people waking up early and I get so much pressure sometimes

cos i've never been an early riser and my mom is probably right

I'll be poor if I sleep all the time. Guys, I dont want to be poor!!

I tried to wake up early without going to work and it didn't work

it's cold and gloomy and why should I ?

but I want to get comfortable doing the uncomfortable?

Channeling my inner Pepe Minambo 🧘🏾‍♀️

I made udon noodles 🍜

I'm out of toilet paper 🤦🏾‍♀️

so I'm going to try doing things that bring fulfillment

I'm really always trying to do things, aren't I?

I'm back from the supermarket and my house smells like food

why do I look so bulky with this coat on?

I bought enough tissue to last me a lifetime

some pineapples

bell peppers, kiwis,,,,

some period underwears from Lidl

more tissue

fish and more fish

Time to clean out my freezer

Diligently scraping the ice

I hope this video has reminded you that somehow,

lives are similar. Have a great weekend!🤍🤍
