Being a Night Owl and Embracing Night Time Routine

If you can buy or make some stretchy synthetic bags with zips, you can separate the clothing that pills (the correct word for the little balls) and anything you don't want other fliff on, and put them in the wash with the other clothing. It works for me.

awwwww❤❤❤❤kitty.... you could never be a failure. You always do so well and take such good of your children and your husband and friends you even moved in a different country to make a better life for them and yourself ❤

I grew up on kefir, even more than yogurt. It's the easiest to make! I love it. It kind of feels like a treat even if it is good for you. I'm wondering if you ever deal with SAD in the winter when there is not much light in the northern hemisphere. When I moved to the NE USA, it is much much darker in the winter and I noticed less energy and my sleep was worse (I have always been a night owl but this was a lot worse) so I started using a therapy light for 20-25 minutes in the morning and it has helped a lot.

The little fabric balls we call pilling 😊

Hehe I worked in a summer camp in Siberia for a few months and every single night we had kefir and bulochka before bed ❤

I have the same fabric shaver and agree that it's the best thing ever! I can make the clothes look like new again

How have you managed to learn English so good?

I’ve always been a mix of night owl and early bird, this video is so calming. Love from Alaska! ❤️

Am is night (after midnight) and up until lunch time. Pm is post lunch. I remember it as I’m French and A for me stands for ‘avant’ (or before lunch) and pm, post lunch. 😅

How do you survive with less sleeping? My baby is falling asleep at 7pm and waking up at 6am. With several waking ups in between. Im so tired 😢

They have Kifer here at the grocery stores in the US. They have the plain ones as well as fruit flavored. I like the plain ones, because growing up I drank dough. It is a middle easter drink similar to Kefir. Dough is a carbonated sour/salty yogurt drink (not sweet at all). My husband on the other hand prefers the flavored Kifer.

My husband and I are both night owls, I've always been one, even as a small girl. He works afternoons/evenings, so we get up around 11 and go to bed between 2 and 3. I work from home so that helps. You're right, getting up earlier doesn't help, there's nothing virtuous about it if you're exhausted.

What a great video and I love seeing your kitties. I’ve made my own raw milk kefir for years. Here in the USA, it’s considered a drinkable yogurt. It’s amazing for digestive and immune health…so great for your health.

iam night owl but im just kinda on a lil extreme side of it , sometimes my girlfriend gets pissed off about it specially when we go traveling

We night owls kept the rest of our sleeping community safe at night and kept the fire burning back in the days of cave dwelling. Then in the daytime the refreshed sleepers would go out foraging for food and share it with us after we had slept. We are valuable in our own right. We just don't fit into modern schedules. .

I’m a night owl myself but I have to go to bed at a certain time otherwise I won’t be able to fall asleep. I’m curious- were you able to sleep well after staying up until 1:30 AM?

We have kefir in the US too

The light on windows, you get black out blinds that stick to the windows

"It's not that late actually" - girl, I'm dying at 9pm

Where i live we call that milk 'amasi' i like it alot , its also nice with grated ginger , lemon , honey or even mint - i like how real you keep things like keeping the part where the "baby safety"? Plug fall out ... :)

I stay up until 3 am about every night. Then I take a sleeping pill and I'm go to go until l wake up at about 10:30 am. 😊😊😊

My grandmother and I used to drink Kefir (with sugar) as a kid. It is such a precious childhood memory! <3 I love Kefir!

I can't believe how long your hair has gotten! It seems only last week you cut it short. Gives me hope my hair will grow out quickly too lol

(BTW, the little fabric balls are called "pilling". Like the clothing is covered in little fabric pills) 😁

I was a night owl until i did two things : started not opening any bright lights ( just candles and night stand lamp ) and leaving the windows without a curtain or shatter.. so within one year my body learned to wake up with sunrise and start to get sleepy with sunset

I always suffered from insomnia all my life and the bad thoughts were hunting me all night my mind just doesnt calm down and it gets worse as the hours go until one day i decided that since i dont talk to anyone and i just overthink im gonna start sleeping before midnight mostly 22h or 23h it was a miracle because aint in no way someone would have convince me and i tried for years i just dont know what happened that just like saying thats enough i could change or deblock something in my head now i cant stay up after midnight i am so happy it was lufe changing and i am also more stable mentally not completely but mostly

Just finished drinking blueberry Kefir right before I watched this! Pretty common in the USA from what I have seen.

Just a quick tip on using the lint remover: try not to use it on delicate clothes, or if you do, be very gentle. Also be careful not to accidentally touch your skin with it. Thanks for the videos…greetings from UK.🌹

Hi Victoria - I’m also a night owl but I have insomnia. It started when I was my late husband’s caregiver during the time he was sick from his lung cancer. I had to give him various prescribed meds during the night hours - help him to the washroom - and make sure he didn’t go outside in the cold in his pyjamas. The cancer had affected his mind (like some people who have dementia) and he wanted to go outside in the dark. Though this was several years ago - I still have it plus my brain won’t shut down at normal bedtime. I don’t want to take drugs in case I have to wake up in a hurry. I enjoy your interesting videos as they are about everyday life. Take care. Cheers from 🇨🇦🍁

Lint is what some call the little fabric balls.

Fellow mom and night owl here, and I totally get you on doing stuff at night. I've tried to be a morning person and it just doesn't work for me either. I'm most productive at night plus it's nice to have the alone time.

Signing in as a night owl too!

Oh my, I am also a night owl girl, married to an early bird boy! It is sometimes difficult to have such different rhythms, but we've also found it handy for dividing work between us! The society generally treats night owls as lazy (and this is very stupid), but I have also been a night owl ever since I was little and so was my mum. I did a gene test on 23andMe recently and I felt really validated - it showed that I am genetically as night owl as you can be! So I do not fight with biology, but use it to my advantage and work when others (the non-lazy ones!) are snoring in their beds!

Kefir sounds like buttermilk. I used to like buttermilk when I was younger but I don't know if I could drink it anymore. I should try sometime

Laughing because here I am watching this about 1 am . My husband is also a morning person and I am a night owl . We have been married for 41 years . My most productive time is between 12-3 am . Especially when my 3 kids were small . I love your content Vika !

💛

the cats are soooooo cute

I could never get up early at your age. I even worked night shift. Now I am older and I wake up very early on my own, no alarm clock! It is 7pm here and I can't wait for bedtime, 😂

I usually go to bed around 1AM then get up at 7AM - set my alarm. I generally end up taking a nap in the afternoon.It's easy to get a lot done after husband goes to bed.

We’re those orbs flying around you at the end???

Its so refreshing (and validating) to see other night people proclaiming as such. I think by now society needs to change their views toward those that arent ready to hit the ground running at 7am for a day job along with the 'early bird gets the worm' mentality. Night ppl are far from lazy. Its just biological. Also i highly commend your considerate behavior towards neighbors. Here in the US esp in multi cultural city environments-NOBODY respects the right to live peacefully.

Cats and rats 🤣🤣

I'm just a mom of little ones, watching this vlog at midnight 😁 It's so nice and peaceful when everyone else is asleep!

Oh I love Kefir!! I have IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), so I constantly am looking out for food/drinks that rich in probiotics.
Sometimes I add salt to it so it can taste similar to the Turkish aryan drink (salty yogurt drink)... which I find is really refreshing in the summer!

I’ve made Kefir. It’s fermented dairy. You can even make it with water. Great for digestion and tasty with overnight oats. I used to be a night 🦉 owl, but that switched in my forties. Now, I’m up with the birds and I love going to bed.

You could also use those throw away razors for depilling your clothes.

South African name is mague. Like sour joghurt. I do enjoy it a lot.

Conheci seu canal essa semana..sou do 🇧🇷 Brasil..estou amando sua simplicidade. Seus vídeos. Tô vendo desde o primeiro 🤦🏻‍♀️. Parabéns pelos vídeos. Que seu canal continue crescendo. 🤗

Thank you for sharing that time with you. We have kefir sometimes there is a slight fizzy taste. I wish all occupants of apartments were as thoughtful about their neighbours as you as noise pollution is a huge problem. Bless you and family.

I also like kefir! My husband on the other hand, he once told me... "babe, I think the yogurt you bought has gone bad" hahah I said, "no, it's supposed to taste like that" 😂
