My squirrel brain finds fun, useful stuff🐿️

I started a series this summer by accident! I shared a few things we loved from our kitchen renovation (like our smoothie station), and it was so popular that I decided to keep going. You are curious like me and kept asking questions and loving it, so I kept going. That’s how Secrets in Our Home was born.

It was fairly early in my content creation journey, so you’ll see the episodes get a little better as I went lol. One day I’ll have to redo some of them! I hope you find some ideas and things to watch for if you’re doing a home renovation or a build, and you can reach out with questions anytime.

All 12 episodes plus the bonus episode are in my highlights under Home Renos, so you can easily find them and binge watch them. go in and watch them. I’d love to know what your favourite feature from this series is. I’m curious too!!

I know exactly what my squirrel brain needs after a mentally taxing day. So when I got home, I went for a walk in our garden with the dogs (they’re always happy to come out with me). Walking in nature always slows my brain down and makes me appreciate life, and I love walking in our backyard.

We started this garden when we moved in almost 17 years ago. It’s stunning in the summer, however I think it’s still so beautiful in the fall with all the different colours and interesting textures. Every year we add to our garden, and while we have curated the look, we have always made sure to keep it very natural looking to blend with the forest behind us. We also like to keep adding a few unexpected Dr. Seuss twists. We have some big plans for a problem corner of our garden next year, so make sure to follow along as we take you through that journey.

The song on this reel is about not waiting, and the older I get the more I believe that, ’cause we never know how much time we have.

Tell me in the comments what you’ve started later in life or what you’ve been putting off. And this is your sign to quit saying “someday” and go do the damn thing 😉

Most months blur together, so I use the 1 Second Everyday app to save one second of video from each day. It might be dinner with the family, a walk, a coffee or something completely ordinary. I’ll be truthful, I don’t always do it every day, and sometimes I’m catching up near the end of the next month, like I just did with this September one at the end of October! At the end of each month I have a little reel like this one, and watching it back reminds me how much actually happened in a month I would have sworn just flew by.

At the end of the year I put all twelve months together, and it turns into five or six minutes of my whole year. Follow along so you can see my 2026 when it’s done in December!

And if you want to remember your 2026, it’s not too late. Start today and work forward through October, November and December, then go back and fill in the rest of the year from the videos already on your phone, and you’ll have all of 2026 together. One second a day is the easiest habit I’ve ever kept, even when I’m catching up, and I promise you’ll love watching it back. Tell me in the comments if you’re starting, and I’ll cheer you on ♥️

Apparently my daughter has been listening to me all these years. ❤️

We were talking this weekend about why people save the good candles, fancy soaps and all those little things for a special occasion.

Here’s your reminder: You don’t need a special occasion to enjoy the things you love.

Life is happening right now.

What is something you’ve been saving for “someday”?

The best building or renovation decisions are often the ones people don’t even notice.

This episode starts with thinking about the space planning needs of your family and if you entertain. It then moves to thinking through a major part of the inside of the walls, which is your electrical, and ensuring that you have plugs and switches where you’ll be using them. The fifth one is a little tip if you have teens or tweens coming up. 😉

We have custom-built three homes and survived a major renovation. With each project, we have learned things we would do again and things we would change. It has been fun sharing all of this learning with you over the last 11 episodes, and I hope you save these and come back to them for your next renovation or build.

Stay tuned for next week where we share some of our favourite things in our house.

What other questions do you have about building or renovating? I’d love to share what we have learned.

Another episode of Life with Michele and Doug. 😂

So Doug woke me up at 4 AM yesterday to say goodbye before heading to the airport , and my brain decided that was the perfect time to discuss Thanksgiving dinner. 🇨🇦

More specifically, the turkey he was supposed to buy.

I didn’t even say good morning. Just opened my eyes and went straight to “You were supposed to buy a turkey!”

I have absolutely no idea why THAT was the first thought my brain pulled out of its filing cabinet at 4 AM. 😂 There are 37 tabs open in there and the turkey one was front and center.

The funniest part was his text later that morning. He wasn’t upset. He was more concerned that I had so much on my mind that TURKEY was the first thing out of my mouth at 4 AM. So he told me not to worry about it, he’d take care of it.

Then he informed me that he’d already filled in the missing parts of our conversation. You know, the good morning, I love you, I’ll miss you stuff.

And he got it exactly right. ❤️

I have a habit of jumping from A to D in conversations, completely forgetting that the other person wasn’t inside my head for steps B and C. I only found out at 58 with my late diagnosis that there’s an explanation for some of this.

Doug’s had 33 years of practice. He doesn’t even need subtitles anymore. 😉

Send this to the person who has to translate your brain, or the one whose brain you’ve learned to translate. And give them a little extra love today. They probably deserve it. 😂❤️
