(lighthearted music)
- So the first thing we're gonna show you
is installing a VPN service
using an anonymous gift card.
So, going to a store, purchasing a gift card
and running though that.
So basically this is just gonna take you through it
and Jack and I will go kind of back and forth
on these slides,
but we're loading incognito window,
which we didn't talk about before.
It's basically making sure that you're not caching
anything locally on the machine, cookies, et cetera.
So, as you go to these sights,
it's not keeping that information.
We're gonna go to privateinternetaccess.com.
There's tons of VPN tools out there,
this is just one that I know we both like.
- Although one of the reasons we picked it,
there's a website called TorrentFreak,
which lists kind of the top VPN providers,
and one thing we do like about privateinternetaccess,
you've gotta understand where the company's based
and what their country laws are.
The U.S. does not have a retention policy
when it comes to VPN products.
So, we like PIA, they are out of the U.S.
They do not have a retention policy,
so they won't hold any data whatsoever.
So understanding kind of what they're bound to.
Like UK, I used to use hidemyass VPN.
That's out of the UK.
Don't use that one.
Cause GCHQ's a thing and they do have data retention rights
that they have to adhere to.
- So here's an important part to keep in mind.
This is that paying with an anonymous branded gift card.
One of the things you can do is go to a store,
and get a gift card for 50 bucks,
and they have literally hundreds,
we're gonna scroll through them real quick,
of different gift cards that you can take,
turn in, and purchase.
That means your not listed,
your not connected to your credit card.
You're not connected to your home address,
you're not connected to all these pieces,
because you went and took cash,
traded it for another mechanism,
and then used that to purchase your VPN service.
It's making one more level, one more obstacle
for people trying to figure out who you are,
and what you're doing.
So we're gonna make that purchase now and blur this out,
because I wanna make sure
that's the data that's protected here.
- Because of security.
- Yeah, security's good.
So we're gonna enter in the card number data
off that gift card.
It's gonna go in, it's gonna check the balance
because they wanna make sure
that it's an actual gift card.
And basically we're paying 50 bucks
for 366 days of VPN access.
I'm gonna put in an email address,
that was created for the presentation,
jamesmadison@fourthamendmentservice.com,
and basically they'll email you a set of credentials.
So you're probably saying to yourself but wait a minute.
They're gonna email me credentials,
that sounds pretty easy to trace.
We're gonna show you in a video in a few minutes here,
10-minute, basically burner email accounts,
so you can get your credentials.
- I prefer Guerrilla Mail, because you can get the email
address at SharkLasers.com.
- Who doesn't like sharks with lasers?
- Exactly.
So now we're going into gmail,
this is gonna cut for a second here.
So basically your username and password,
and then you go back to the site,
and a little pro tip,
I actually ran into this making the video.
They will send you a link for the actual installer,
don't use the link in the email,
they haven't updated it yet.
Actually go to the page, and download the client.
I spent about 20 minutes beating my head
against the wall on that so,
a pro tip from me to you.
So basically you'll download the installer,
we're obviously doing this on a Mac.
And what we wanna show you here
is really what you should be getting from these videos
as we run through them,
is these are being done in real time.
This is how quickly you can go from
I'm just on the internet.
And notice, you may have noticed at the top of these things
there's an IP address that's blurred,
they show you what you're externally-facing IP address is.
They know, because that's how networking works,
they know where you're coming from.
Once we get this installed,
we'll actually select a different location,
and in the video you'll see
we actually select London.
So whoever is seeing us connect to their website,
or their VPN, know our termination point is London.
I am not in London.
I'd like to be in London, but I'm not in London.
So we'll take those credentials, and we add them in
to the client that was just installed,
and it takes a couple seconds here,
but then in a few minutes, or not minutes, a few seconds,
you'll see the actual drop-downs
here for the selections.
So we'll paste those credentials in,
and like I said, what I like about these videos
is that they are real time.
This isn't alright I'm gonna go home,
it's gonna take me 20 minutes of reading something,
and then I gotta go get it installed, et cetera.
You go from no VPN, to VPN in about five minutes.
- Zero to hero.
- So here we are.
Notice all these connection types.
We can come from Florida, Texas, Chicago, Montreal, Sydney.
And we can go more, Denmark, Finland, Switzerland,
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
So these are all ways that you can say alright,
I want this traffic to look like it's originating
from a different point.
And you'll notice here I call out the IP address,
so I'm gonna go connect to London,
and right now I'm on Bright House Networks,
many of us probably have Bright House Networks.
And you'll see the little robot connect,
and once the little robot connects,
we'll refresh the page and
hootcha, hootcha, hootcha, lobster.
- Green robot good, red robot means it's disconnected,
and gray robot means you don't have PIA turned on so...
- And there we go.
So now we're at Choopa, or Choppa,
I can't say that right, LLC,
and the IP address is out of London.
Our data is now encapsulated and protected,
and it looks like we're sitting
maybe on the River Thames, surfing the internet.
And that's it, that's the VPN service.

Anthony Joshua will be an easier opponent for Joseph Parker than Hughie Fury: Kevin Barry - Duration: 3:50.
Anthony Joshua will be an easier opponent for Joseph Parker than Hughie Fury: Kevin Barry
Anthony Joshua will be an easier opponent for Joseph Parker than Hughie Fury: Kevin Barry . Joseph Parker could face IBF, WBA and IBO champion Anthony Joshua in the ring as early as July next year, at Wembley.
Trainer Kevin Barry believes Joseph Parker will find it easier fighting Anthony Joshua than he did disposing of Hughie Fury.
Barry made the eyebrow-raising call after Parker struggled to put away Fury at the weekend, winning a majority decision in Manchester to retain his WBO heavyweight belt.
One thing is for sure, Barry told The Guardian, we wont have to go looking for Joshua. Hes going to be right there in our face..
Joseph Parker, left, had to chase Hughie Fury around the ring on Sunday.
Parkers chance to prove that premise could come sooner than expected with The Daily Mirror reporting that a Joshua-Parker clash is being targeted for July at Londons Wembley Stadium with negotiations between the two camps underway.
The stand-and-deliver style of Joshua would stand in stark contrast to the tactics employed by the twinkle-toed Fury, who danced away from Parker all night. While it wasnt quite the shades of Ali that his manager claimed, Fury certainly showed plenty of defensive skill.
The big Brits problem was his total lack of threat on offence, which Barry said, caused Parker to go away from their gameplan.
I wanted Joe to work the double jab a lot more. We actually spent the whole training camp throwing thousands of body shots.
Joe sort of went a wee bit away from that. I think Joe actually got a little reckless in the early rounds.
He realised as soon as he got out there that Hughie never had the power to get his respect. Hughie was never going to be able to hurt him..
Now Parker is eyeing a warm-up fight, possibly against Japans Kyotaro Fujimoto, before what he hopes will be a unification bout with knock-out artist and IBF champion Joshua.
I think Joseph matches up very well against Joshua and styles make fights, Barry told 5 Live Boxing. Ive also thought his particular style will suit us.
Thats a fight we would love to be involved in. Joshuas last appearance at Wembley Stadium, when he beat former champion Wladimir Klitschko in the fight of the year, drew a capacity crowd of roughly 90,000 to the huge outdoor venue.
Joshua must first get past Bulgarias Kubrat Pulev (25-1, 13 KOs) on October 28 at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales. The 27-year-old Joshua (19-0, 19 KOs) also owns the IBO and WBA championships.

MY SUMMER'S COME TO AN END | September Vlog pt. 1 - Duration: 6:08.
Hey guys, it is September 3rd which means it is the start of my September vlog!
I'm waiting for Allen. We're gonna get some brunch and
yeah
we'll just see how it goes.
So we just wandered into the Waterstreet Cafe
and it looks super cute.
Esther: I am here with Melissa and James.
Melissa: We're just gonna be reading like a bunch of
questions and we're gonna see if we answer it right.
Esther: First question is
What's her favourite colour? You go first, what do you think?
Melissa: What I think of you?
PINK!
Yeah
Melissa: okay I think it's really obvious for me
Really? Oh, I actually think I know what it is!
BLACK.
Melissa: Yeah! Esther: OMG!
Ohkay I think Melissa's kind of like a basic b****.
No I'm just joking.
So I think she might want to go to like...
Iceland?
Melissa: NOO
Mine is like Italy or something.
Ohhh Dang it
Melissa: That's more basic than Iceland.
I think yours is Korea. Esther: yeah yeah Asia
Esther: Oh! Um...
Does she eat raw fish?
I forget. Oh you do because we went to Sushi Mura and you had sushi.
I think your favourite food is...
McDonald's!
Melissa: I mean McDonald's is great, but it's not my favourite.
Melissa: Yeah!
Esther: I almost got it!
Melissa: You went from like sushi and then you were like
McDonald's.
I think it'd be like...
spicy Korean...
KIMCHI!
Esther: No!
My favourite actually is sashimi as well
and also steak.
MEDIUM RARE STEAK
*laughs*
Esther: Do you even sport?
Melissa: I don't know
Esther: Sure, let's skip that one.
What is the score?
Oh, I win!
Hey guys! We are at Mal Li Sang...Mal Li Sang?
Dad: Mal Li Sung
Esther: Mal Li Sung, and it is a Korean-Chinese restaurant at Aberdeen.
Shonnah: We're getting Snowy Village. It's Korean, she's Korean. Let's go.
Esther: I love patbingsoo (Korean shaved ice), it's one of my favourite desserts ever.
I am at the Starbucks near my Academy
and this is THE Starbucks that I've always gone to as a young child.
So I am at my studio and this is my very first student!
Hannah: Hi guys, my name's Hannah.
Esther: So I just finished my day of teaching. It was really exciting.
Everyone in the orchestra was well behaved.
My younger brother wanted to watch 'It' which is a horror movie and my brother, Peter, bought us these tickets
so we're gonna watch...*scared sigh*...we're gonna watch it.
We're gonna watch 'It'.
ha ha ha ha get 'It'?
The movie's gonna start soon.
Omg
Are you scared?
Andrew: Not really.
Grace: Hey guys! It's Esther here.
So today we'll be heading out to Willowview Farm
where we're gonna be picking apples. So exciting, yay!
Esther: Omg. You even got the 'yay' part right.
We are finally here at the Willowbrook farm.
We are ready to go pick some apples, eat some apples and drink some apple cider.
Grace: Hi guys, so it's Grace here. I've taken over Esther's vlogging camera because
she's busy calling someone for something. What the hell is with this lens...it's so weird...
hi guys so we got that weird angle off my face. Anyway, we're at Willowview farm now.
Esther: I'm gonna feed my favourite goat. No I'm just joking. Grace: I named my favourite one Konstantine.
It is nearing the last few days of summer so I decided to be a tourist in my own city.
I am here at the bird sanctuary in Delta and I'm gonna look at birds.
I am here with the birds and they are eating out of my hand right now as we speak.
I hope they're enjoying their food.
(I'm scared) AH They're gone!
So that is the end of my vlog.
More things to come is
I'll be going on a BC tour at the end of this month.
which is really exciting. So I'll show you guys all the beautiful parts of
British Columbia. If you guys want to see more updates about my life be sure to

Quorum: An Accessible Programming Language (Audio Described) - Duration: 8:21.
[music]
>> Instructor: If you're a camera, a 3D camera,
and you're looking at her,
and she's pointing in that direction,
the question is
what do you call X,
what do you call Y,
and what do you call Z?
>> Student: I would want to take
all the knowledge that I've learned throughout this camp using Quorum
and maybe develop my own game maybe later down the line.
>> Student: I really want to teach others.
That's sort of what I like to do
and with Quorum I can do that much easier.
[music]
>> Instructor: We're now going to say "box."
>> Narrator: Technology jobs are in demand
and an understanding of computing and coding
are important for anyone pursuing these opportunities.
But learning programming languages can be difficult for any new student
including some students with disabilities.
That's why Quorum was created.
>> Andreas Stefik: My name is Andreas Stefik.
I'm an assistant professor of computer science
at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas.
I invented the Quorum programming language at first
then my wife and I
actually created several versions of it together.
It was originally designed to try to help
blind or visually impaired students learn to program more easily.
The reason is because at the time a lot of computer science
was moving toward very visual content
and that in general makes a lot of sense,
however, not if you're blind.
>> Richard Ladner: I'm Richard Ladner,
professor in Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Washington.
>> Richard to student: So you really need similar code
to what you have there already.
>> Richard: Children who are blind, who can't see,
can actually program in Quorum
and make things that talk or have sound or have music
so they're not always so visual.
If you look at almost all the tools that are out there for children,
they're all super visual
and this one is visual and auditory
so that makes it much better for everybody.
>> Lauren Milne: I'm Lauren Milne and I'm a graduate student
at the University of Washington in computer science.
I work with Richard Ladner
and I do a lot of research in programming languages,
specifically for blind students.
It has full support for screen readers and Braille displays
and it has a lot of features.
it's very easy to incorporate audio in programs
and a lot of things you can play around with in audio
so it means you can make really accessible,
you can quickly and easily make accessible games
or whatever you'd like using Quorum.
>>Narrator: Quorum's features are universally designed,
making it an easier language to learn in general.
>>Andreas: One of the reasons why Quorum is easier
in some cases for people to learn and grasp
is because the language is simpler
which impacts people with learning disabilities.
For example, if I was to tell the computer
to do something over and over again
in a language like Java I would say
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
Which "obviously" means that we should do something 10 times.
In Quorum, I say
repeat 10 times.
>>Richard: I find personally reading Quorum programs
a lot easier than reading C programs or Java programs.
That I can understand them more easily and so I feel like there are some
major advantages from the get-go.
Just that simple elegance.
Most languages after every single line you have to put a semicolon.
Why you have to put a semicolon, it seems to be just tradition.
It doesn't need to be there and Quorum has no semicolons.
>> Lauren: I hypothesize it could be really good
for certain students with learning disabilities
that Quorum doesn't use braces; it uses sort of indentations
and it uses the word, keywords instead to indicate the end of loops.
>> Andreas to students: I want you to type the word "model"
and then I want you to type the word "box."
Now there's a red underline here because we haven't added...
>> Narrator: Over the years, Quorum has gained popularity.
>> Dominic: I'm Dominic and I'm really into computers
and really enjoy using Quorum
and have used other computer programs before like C++ and Java.
One of the things that stands out to me in Quorum is the punctuation
and it's really easy because you don't have to add in
all the semicolons and all the annoying hash tags and "@" symbols and everything.
You just use words basically which is way easier
than using all those confusing symbols
and I think that makes it easier for me to program in Quorum
than other languages.
>> Alyssa: Hi, I'm Alyssa.
What makes Quorum easier is the way they wrote,
the way they program for us to write the code.
So we don't have to add semicolons
and brackets and parentheses and all the stuff.
They made it easier.
You can just type in a word, "output" let's say, for example,
and then you could write in quotes
whatever you want the computer to say
and that's what makes it a lot more unique than
other programming languages like Java.
>> Mary: I'm Mary.
You can do a lot more things in Quorum with less lines of code
than in some other things I've used before.
>> Narrator: Quorum is evidence-based,
using the results of scientific experiments
to determine how to make the language easier to use.
>> Andreas: Quorum provides two primary benefits.
One is everything is free
and then number two: at the end of the day
all of the materials that we use and that we give to people
are vetted both by teachers and students
and are vetted in experiments through the scientific method.
>> Narrator: The result is a programming language
that is creating a more inviting environment for computing students.
>> Lauren: A lot of people - I've seen in intro classes that I've taught.
They come in, you know, and they get really intimidated at first
when they start programming and there's all sorts of bugs
and it can be very frustrating.
People drop out and very often the only people who stick around
are people who have come in, who come into the college course
with previous programming experience.
Anything that lowers that initial entry
is going to bring a lot more people, a lot more diversity, because of that.

How to Make an Autofill List in Excel and How to Change an Autofill List in Excel - Tutorial - Duration: 6:30.
Hi. In this video, we'll go over what an autofill list is, how to create a new autofill list in Excel that you can be reused in different worksheets
and we'll also go over how to edit your custom auto-fill list.
So, first, what is an auto-fill list in Excel? So, sometimes called an autocomplete list, an autofill list is a list that can be automatically
filled in your spreadsheets simply by typing any of the words contained in the list and then dragging the cells over to complete the list.
For example, I can type the word January into this cell and, as I type it, you see that the bottom right corner of the cell has a slightly
different shape than the other corners. Well, if I put my cursor over this, you'll see that it changes into a +
Well, if I drag this over while I'm holding down my mouse button,
you see that there is a preview that shows you the rest of the months of the year. Now, you can
drag is over and stop at any point. I'm going to keep going until we reach December
and then once I let go, the months of the year autofill in my spreadsheet. And this is an
example of a list of items that we can auto fill in our Excel spreadsheet.
There a couple of different ways that you can create an autofill list, but to do either you'll want to go to your File tab and scroll until you
find Options. Click on Options and this brings you to your Excel Options.
Once here, you'll want to click on Advanced and then scroll until you find the section that reads General. And then once you're here
you'll want to choose "Create Lists for Use in Sorts and Fill Sequences: Edit Custom Lists".
So we click on this. And this brings up all of the Custom Lists stored in our Excel software.
Once here, you can go on to create your new custom list. So, to do that, make sure that New List is highlighted and simply type your
entries in. So, let's say I want to type in a list of my Items Sold. So I would type Shirt,
Pillows, Pants, Bread, and Eggs. Now, one thing to keep in mind is, your autofill list will always
populate in the order that you type your list in. So, once I do this, I can click on Add,
OK and then we'll click OK again in Excel Options and we should have our new list of
Items Sold. So, to test this, let's delete these Items Sold
and we'll type the word Shirt. This should trigger for Excel that this is part of a Custom List and, if
we want to, we can drag down, and you see how this autofills the items that
we included in our list. Now, one thing to notice, if you continue dragging the list will repeat itself. So if I dragged this down, you see
that it starts over again with Shirt, Pillows, Pants, Bread, Eggs, Shirt again and it would go on forever if I continue dragging.
So let's undo these extra list items that we dragged down. So, another way that you can
create a Custom List is by using data that's already in your spreadsheet. So, for example,
let's say we want to create a Custom List for our sales associates. We can come to the File menu again / Options /
Advanced / we go down to General and we'll click on Edit Custom Lists
and this time, where it says Import List From Cells, we'll delete this because we don't want to do that one,
and let's say we want to import our Sales Associates, or Sales Persons.
So we highlight this area
and once we do that, we'll click Import and this automatically adds my entries as a new List. Now, notice one thing that we did differently
here, and this is up to you how you need to do it for your specific project, is I included Sales Person in my list.
And, not just did I include it, but I included it as the very first item. So, once I do this, this will let me start off my list by typing Sales Person
as the trigger. And, this way, I don't have to remember the names of my individual associates.
So, we'll click OK,
OK again. And, to test this, we'll do the same thing -
we will type
Sales Person
and, once we do this, we'll drag down and this automatically enters the name of my associates.
Just have to unbold that.
Now, we can also make edits to our Custom Lists. So, to do that, we'll go back to our Excel Options location / Advanced / and General.
And when we're in the Lists, you'll notice that you can choose any of these lists. Now, some of these are grayed out. These lists were
already included with your Excel program and you can't make any changes to those, but you can change the ones that you've created.
So, let's say we want to change some of our Items Sold from Eggs to Pasta. Well, I will just delete Eggs and type in Pasta. Now, please
note, I'm deleting the word using the Delete button on my keyboard. If you use the Delete button on
this box, it will delete the entire list for you. So, we type Pasta in,
click OK and click OK again.
And then now if I were to drag this down you see that Eggs changes to Pasta.
And, lastly, don't forget that these Lists that we created can be used with any workbook. So, let's say we want to create a new workbook.
And I type in Sales Person,
for example, I can drag down and, even though I'm in a new workbook, my List is still available to me. So, I hope you found this tutorial helpful
to learn how to create a new Autofill list in your Excel and how to modify an existing Autofill list.

8 Reasons Everyone Should Have an Introvert in Their Life - Duration: 6:02.
8 Reasons Everyone Should Have an Introvert in Their Life
Despite what others might said about introvert, the reality is introverts can make incredible
friends and partners, and even one of the best.
For that reason, I believe everyone should have an introvert in their life in some capacity.
And with introverts making up 30-50 percent of the population, there are plenty of us
to go around.
Just make sure to give us our space, we are introverts after all.
In this video, I'm going to share with you the reasons why everyone should have an introvert
in their life.
Likewise, if you find this information is helpful to you, make sure to like this video
and subscribe to our channel so you won't miss any interesting update in the future
guys!
1.
Introverts give you the stage.
Because we tend feel more comfortable listening than talking about ourselves, we'll gladly
concede the spotlight.
That means when you need to get something off your chest, or better yet, talk through
your deepest fears and dreams, we'll be there.
We'll listen empathically and probably ask questions that help move your thoughts along.
This tendency of ours also translates to us not overshadowing you when you wish to hold
court.
While you tell a riveting story or a belly-busting joke to a group of friends, we'll laugh
and smile along in support, rarely stealing your moment of thunder.
2.
Introverts will push you intellectually.
That's because introverts love learning and adding to their vast stores of specialty
knowledge.
They also tend to examine issues from many perspectives, so they won't, say, simply
tow the party line or believe what everyone else is saying without investigating for themselves.
Having an introvert in your life may mean you will grow intellectually in ways that
you wouldn't experience if your friend or partner were more extroverted.
3.
Thoughtful and analytical, introverts give good advice.
Trying to lose weight?
Introverts have researched the top five diets, their pros and cons, and which ones work best.
We've got charts, spreadsheets, and peer-reviewed studies to prove it.
Struggling to sort out your complicated feelings about your ex?
Forget the Cosmo article.
We've been silently analyzing your situation for a while, plus we've got great insights
from our own experiences to share.
4.
Introverts will bring a depth of intimacy to your relationship that you may never have
experienced.
Many introverts value depth and meaning, and their relationships are no exception.
Rather than talking about the weather or your weekend's conquests, introverts value conversation
that is mind-to-mind and heart-to-heart.
How are your thoughts and feelings evolving?
What's playing out in your private inner world?
This means you may develop a closer, more personal relationship with us than with others
in your life.
5.
Introverts bring a chill vibe.
Compare it a little with extrovert who couldn't stand silence.
At home, extrovert may turn on the TV for background noise, no matter what he or she
doing.
In the car, extrovert will more likely to turn the radio on.
This is not the case with introverts.
Introverts are perfectly content to pass a long car trip in silence, each person staring
wistfully out the window, lost in their own thoughts.
Also, our homes tend to be calm, sacred spaces that allow us, and those who share them with
us, to recharge.
6.
Introverts are low maintenance.
You don't have to text us every day.
You don't have to make plans with us every weekend.
In fact, we'd prefer you didn't.
This goes back to that whole "introverts need time alone to recharge" thing.
And don't think that spending time apart means our relationship will deteriorate.
For introverts, absence usually makes the heart grow fonder.
After some time to ourselves, you may find that we "show up" better for you.
7.
Introverts cherish the relationships they have pushed themselves to make.
For many introverts, finding love and making friends isn't easy.
To do so, we have to push ourselves past our comfort zone, which can be uncomfortable and
exhausting, to say the least.
Plus, we tend to be unique, independent people who don't click with just anyone.
If you're in our life, you're there for a reason.
We may not be great at saying it, but know that we deeply cherish your presence in our
life.
8.
Introverts will remind you to stay balanced.
Extroverts inherently understand the value of making connections, but introverts understand
the value of slowing down and turning inward.
Rather than constantly chasing popularity and status, introverts tend to value the simpler,
more meaningful things in life.
A thoughtful conversation with a good friend over coffee.
A quiet morning all to yourself.
The confidence you gain when you feel fully whole in and of yourself.
In a noisy, fast-paced world that is always telling you to reach for more, your introverted
friend or partner will remind you to slow down and listen.
All in all, that's the Eight Reasons Everyone Should Have an Introvert in Their Life.
Really cool information isn't it.

5 Signs You May Actually Be a Narcissist | Be The Light - Duration: 3:50.
5 Signs You May Actually Be a Narcissist
We've all heard the term narcissist and we all know it is mainly associated with a negative meaning.
But what does being a narcissist actually mean?
Well, according to the Psychologist's manual DSM-V, there are nine criteria for having Narcissistic personality
disorder (NPD), but you only need to have five out of the nine traits in order to be diagnosed.
But beyond the official criteria, there are other traits that show you have NPD,
so how do you know if you're a narcissist?
1.
If you get angry when someone disagrees with you
Narcissists may react to contrary viewpoints with anger because they have deep-rooted insecurities and anxieties that
are brought out when somebody disagrees with them.
If you're more likely to assume the other person is definitely wrong because you can't possibly be,
chances are you're well on the way to being a narcissist.
2.
If you project onto others
Projecting certain traits about yourself onto others is a non-official trait of a narcissist.
You can't stand that you may hold a certain trait, but somewhere in your psyche,
you recognise it – so when arguing with others, you claim that they have the trait automatically.
3.
If you see others as an extension to yourself
Narcissists often see others as a way to fulfil their own needs and reach their own goals – rather than own people with
their own feelings and needs.
They generally expect things from other people and feel as though they are entitled to certain things,
reacting badly when they don't receive them.
4.
If you can't take criticism
If you're offered a piece of criticism and it makes you angry or defensive, you may have some traits of a narcissist.
They often have inflated egos that don't like to be told anything negative about themselves,
which can mean constructive criticism can be hard to hear at times.
5.
If you don't feel empathetic
Lacking empathy can be a trait of psychopathy or many other personality disorders.
But if you don't easy feel empathetic towards the feelings, needs and wants of others,
chances are you could be a narcissist.
These traits may be fairly hard to self-analyse but if you recognise some or all of these traits in yourself or others,
you may well be a narcissist.
However, this article is not a psychiatric diagnosis and unless you are diagnosed by a professional using the DSM-V
guidelines, you shouldn't take this article as professional advice.
Try to research ways to use narcissism to your advantage and turn it into a positive rather than a negative trait.
Do you think you have any narcissistic traits or do you recognise any of these traits in those around you?

How to Crochet A Cowl: Textured Sprinkle Cakes Cowl - Duration: 21:40.
Welcome back to The Crochet Crowd as well as my friends over at michaels.com.
Today we're going to work on the Textured Crochet
Cowl.
We have two pictures but they're both the same cowl.
One's done in Caron Sprinkle Cakes and the other one is done and Caron Tea Cakes.
Both are exactly the same and you'll need a 10 mm, size 'N'
crochet hook in order to play.
It also comes with a free diagram and we're gonna review that next in order to play.
This video has sound alerts added.
When you hear this sound
it will be your signal that the segment is finishing up.
Press stop and crocheted the instructions
and then press play again to continue along in your project.
So, this cowl only needs one ball.
So whether you choose to do the Caron Sprinkle Cakes on the one side or the Caron Tea Cakes
on the other you'll have the exact same cowl.
So let's look this up, and there's the colors that we're looking at today.
You can see that you can have some really fun colors
and you can see what colors you'll get involved in in your entire cowl.
Make sure that you remember that the colors that you see are not tied together
but it's actually a dyeing technique and it abruptly changes from one to the other.
So these are the Caron Sprinkle and Tea Cakes.
So here is a smaller reduced pattern of what we're going to be working on today, and it
is the Crochet Texture Cowl.
So we're gonna start off with our chaining of fifty-six
and we're gonna go all the way around and then join it back up
and then we start the next one.
So in between these puff stitches there's always gonna be five single crochets
that you see.
So it doesn't matter which one you're on in the rows
it's always gonna be five.
So the only thing that changes is the location of the puff stitches.
So for three in a row just like you see so for three rows
you'll see that the puff stitch lines over top of each other and on the fourth row
we just switch spots and go over.
One thing that you'll have to pay attention to is that you'll see that you'll have a single
crochet over this one, single crochet over this one
but do you notice that the puff stitch is over this one here?
See this one, and this one are not included in that so you have to watch for that,
that's where I made a mistake during my prep to tutorial.
So what we have today is that we have coming across and then we have to skip one
there as well and do our puff stitches as we begin.
So once you get these laid out you'll just see that it works out
pretty good, pretty good.
it's always the first one of the puff stitches that you have to watch out for in order to
skip the appropriate stitches and we'll cover later on in today's tutorial as well.
So it's actually really quite an easy pattern.
Let me show you my little sample that I've been working on and then you can get
going from there.
So here's my sample that I'm working on and we did our chaining of fifty-six.
We went all the way around and then we started our puff stitches, and they line up over top
and there's always gonna be five single crochets that separate them before you hit it again.
So once we get to row number four the switches places and therefore you'll see that.
It looks like it's awesome right.
So it's offset for three more rows
and then it comes back to where it was for the next three rows, and then it shifts over
once again.
So you'll see that it's actually really quite awesome
and it's really, really kind of neat.
If you would like to improvise on this pattern you can also keep the puff stitches is going
straight up if you don't wanna offset them you won't run
out of yarn because it's the same amount of yarn if you want to do
that.
So here on camera what we have is the Caron Sprinkle Cakes
and this is the Birthday Cake flavor as you can see the flecks of the color are very quite
colorful and for myself I don't wanna waste this yarn, and I'm gonna
finish this for myself for my winter attire this winter.
Okay, so enough chitter chatter, let's get at it her.
We're going to create a slipknot, so let's begin and this is classified as an easy pattern
it's not beginners but it is easy if you just follow along.
So we have our slip knot on the hook and I'm gonna show you a quick technique as well
and I want you to only chain ten out of the fifty-six.
So we're gonna go 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10
and what I want you to do is pull the hook off
the loop and I want you to insert the hook into the first stitch on the back side of
the chain where we started and then put that other one back on.
So now what you can just do is that you can continue to chain so we have ten done now
so we can go 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20
and then you can go all the way to
fifty-six and by doing this you're keeping the chain from tangling on itself and that's
a really neat way to go.
So please go all the way to fifty-six for me, meet me back here in just a moment.
So now I have my fifty-six on so what I'm gonna do now now that I have fifty-six
I am going to then pull the loop through, so just wrap the loop and pull through that
one and through the beginning one right, right there, and then this loop will
here will not be all twisted up.
So it's a neat way to do it.
So we're now going to move up to row number one.
So remember what I said, everything is in groups of five when it comes
to the single crochet as we start and then we do puff stitches.
Here, this one here, I want you to pay attention to that because
I get confused when I go all the way around where
the beginning is because it blends, so well.
So leave that out there so that you can see when you have gone all the way around.
So you're going to start up and you're gonna chain up one and you're going to single crochet
in the same one that you did the join.
So you're going to single crochet into the chain.
So 1 and then do the next chain for 2 and then the next chain for 3,
the next chain for 4 and the next chain for 5.
So there is your five single crochet in a row.
So now what I want you to do is that I want you to skip the next
set here and go to the second one over and I want you to puff stitch.
Now the puff stitch is not the popcorn and it's not like three together or anything like
that.
It's a puff stitch.
So you're gonna wrap the hook first, and then you're gonna go to the second one over and
go in and
pull through and now you got three loops on the hook.
So this is a puff stitch making up three of these.
So you're gonna wrap the hook again going into the exact same spot and then going in
pull through and hold it.
So now you have five loops on the hook.
So then you wrap one more time and going into the same one and pull through and now that's
it.
So you now have a total of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 loops on your hook.
I want you to wrap this yarn and pull through everything
but the final one.
So just pull through all of the ones right in front of the final one
but not all the way through and you may have to wiggle and get used to this as you go and
once you get more yarn onto your hook Into your hands it's easier to manipulate
that as well.
So now you have two loops pull through the final two that is a puff stitch, and we'll
review this a few more times.
So the puff stitch, there's two into the same stitch.
So you have to chain one first and then going into the same one and do another puff.
So wrap the hook going into the same one pull through.
Then wrap the hook again, same one pull through and
do it one more time.
So wrap the hook and going in and pull through and
you now have your seven loops back on there so pull
this yarn all the way through.
So wrap it and pull all the way through except for the final one leave it out and
then pull through the final two.
So because we're on the starting chain, we're gonna skip the next one and
we're going to single crocheted the next five in a row.
So we're just gonna do that, so 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
So I'm gonna show it one more time, and then I'm gonna have you do the rest of it on your
own.
So you're gonna skip one and you're gonna puff stitch into the second one over so wrap
the hook and going into the second one over pull through.
Wrap the hook, second one over which is the same one pull through and wrap one more time
and there you have all seven.
So wrap the hook pull through all of it except for the final one and then wrap and pull through
final.
Now that the puff stitches are separated by a chain and do another puff stitch into the
same one and you will speed up because it's pretty
easy, and you're gonna pull through everything but the final and then pull through the final
and because you're on the starting chain skip one and the second one over
begins another group of five in a row.
So you put five and then skip the next one and then do this.
You're going to notice that the puff stitch is gonna happen
on the opposite side of the work so what I want you to do is
repeat the same pattern going all the way around.
I'll see you at the end of this round.
So now coming up all the way around I'm skipping one and the puff stitch is the final thing
going in and the beginning chain in order to get it to go.
So remember that it's grouped of two together.
So there's one chain one and puff again.
Now the trick is, is that this is your first revolution.
You wanna make sure that your project is not twisting in any weird way because then you'll
end up with an infinity cowl instead
where it has a permanent twist to it.
So you get that done and you just gotta look at the project and
let me zoom out the camera and just show you what I'm gonna do.
And so I wanna lay it all out and I wanna follow the top edge.
So follow the top edge around and make sure it stays on the top as you go all the way
around.
So there it is there and there you go.
So once I have confirmed that I want to join it to the very beginning of
the one that I had started with right in the very beginning with the slip
stitch just like that.
So just verify one more time that there is no twist to it
and then you're gonna begin again the next round.
So what I'm gonna do is we're gonna move on to round two.
I like to work on it so that I'm coming around the outside of the
project.
I don't like to work across that the project is in front of me, so I'd like to work like
this.
So I just kinda turned it inside out.
So we're now gonna begin the next round.
So this is round number two.
So you chain up one and the first five in a row are all gonna be single crochets.
So 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 and once you have your five done
you immediately jump to the space that's in between the next two puffs and you're gonna
puff right into there.
So I've already show you it's the same stitch, it's just you're going right in between and
you do one puff, chain one to separate it and do another puff.
So when you do puff stitches the all the texture ends up on the back side of the project therefore
this side here is the good side when you're wearing it.
So then what you have to do is that the next five in a row are going to
be single crochet.
The first one is down right beside the puff and
just count it out.
There's gonna be five.
So 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Just like that, so then you can see that the next one puffs are in the way
which is what you want.
So then you're gonna puff into that one again right into the space between them,
chain one to separate the two puffs and finish it off and then you begin again.
So the next five in a row the first one's right down beside the puff
and then it's gonna be five in a row and I want you to do that all the way around.
So this is gonna be 2, 3, 4 and 5 and then you do your puff again.
So on the other side of this work is all the beautiful texture happening on the other side.
So continue that all the way around for round
number two.
I'll see you at the end of round number two.
So I'm now coming all the way around number two.
Now what I was doing when I was doing my sample I kept screwing up and going further because
it looks like a blends really well.
So the only time it doesn't blend well is that the changes the color and you're shifting
up.
So, so it becomes very obvious right.
So what I'm using is this as my marker that is the beginning tail to show me that
I've gone all the way around.
So I end with the puff stitch just like you'd seen before and then I just
join it to the very beginning with the slip stitch just like so.
So that was round number two.
So then we start round number three.
So chain up one and the first five in a row again are just single crochets.
So there's 2, 3, 4 and 5.
And you really technically probably don't even need to count it at this point because
it's obvious and then you just puff into the next
beginning of the next puff.
So what I want you to do is go around again what you already know and
then I'm gonna meet you back here and we're gonna change the location the puffs are going
to switch over and slide over a little bit to the one side
and then there're gonna be three rows to that and then we just shift it back from that point.
So what I want you to do is just continue to do this and then I will meet you on the
next round where I'll show you how to do that shift over.
So I'm coming up all the way to the end of round number three again this marker showing
me, I actually kinda went a little bit further
because I wasn't supposed to and then I saw that and I thought yeah
I gotta stop.
So now I'm gonna now join to the very beginning, and now we're
going to shift over.
So let's go back to the diagram.
Let's see what we're gonna be doing now because we have to change the locations of where the
puff is just offset it.
Let's bring on that diagram now.
So in the diagram right now we've finished round number three and so you
can see that the puff stitches are gonna move over.
So this time when we chain up one the first two are going to be single crochet.
We skip the next one, we do our puff situation in the next one, skip one and then
the next five in a row will be single crochets and then we're gonna skip one and do another
puff, skip one and then another five in a row.
So once we get this round establish is that the next two will just build
on exactly what you know and then what we're going to do
then is that we're going to change the location then again in number
seven as we switch over and then it becomes the very beginning like so.
And then what's gonna happen is that you'll end up
back here at number ten which is the same as around number one once again.
So you see that it just goes up on an angle just like this.
So let's that begin again and let's continue for round number four.
So round number four we're gonna chain up one and we're gonna single crochet only the
first two.
So 1 and 2.
So now we have to shift our puff, so instead of being way over here we're gonna be earlier.
So we skip the next one and we puff into the second one over and we do our puff
configuration and then pull through, chain one and then puff once again into the
same one.
Your tension really matters for these kind of stitches so pull through and
so now what you're going to do is the next five in a row are going to be it.
So we have to skip the next one, and then just go to the next five.
So 1 and then this one is going in between the space
of the puff, 2 and the next one is the top of the next
puff, 3 and then 4 and 5 and then we do another puff again.
So skip the next one and then we're going to puff into the second one over,
chain one to separate the puffs out and then puff into the same one once again
and then we skip the next one and then the next three to the top of the puff,
between the puff, this is 2, the top of the next puff which is 3 and the next one 4 and
5 and then you do it again.
So skip the next one puff and do all that in the second one over, skip the next one
and then the next five.
Please do that all the way around for round number four.
So I'm getting close to coming all the way back around.
I can tell that the tail where I am.
So I've just done a puff and I'm skipping one.
So there's only gonna be three left.
So 1 and
then I go into the space 2.
That's between the puffs and then the top of the puff is 3 and then that's it.
So then I join it.
So we have to make sure that whatever we do here
is that there's three single crochets here but there is also two here before the puff
which gives you your total of five.
So what I want you to do is that I want you to do now the rounds number five and six
exactly the same way.
So you're gonna chain up one, two and one
single crochet in the first two and then puff and then do your five and then puff.
So you're gonna keep these puffs building on top of each other and I want you to do
that and then I'm gonna come back on
round number seven and show you how to shift it one more time to get, get closer here.
So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna bring back my other sample that I've been working on
because I'm actually at that height there
and I'm gonna show you how I'm gonna be able to shift it so you can see that the shift
is going up on an angle
just like this.
So let's continue along.
So get that down round five and six the same as what you already know and
just make sure that you keep these puffs on top of each other, and then I'll see you back
here in just a moment.
So hopefully you've got arounds number five and six already done
and now we're gonna start with number seven and you'll see that the puffs start right
away and then there's five and then puff and then
et cetera and you do those three rows like that.
Just like there
and then we switch back to what you already know back in number one which you can reverse
the video for that if you need to review that one once again.
So now we're gonna start up round number seven.
You'll see that there's a really big loop here
so you pull up a large loop and then you put your
puff in, chain one and then puff in right into the beginning, and then the next five
in a row and then puffs again.
So let's begin round number seven.
So let's begin round number seven.
So I'm at the point where I'm about to start.
So I'm going to pull up on a chain.
So just pull up, up like this just an extra a little bit longer than normal
and in the same one that you've done the join I want you to do your puff.
So you already know how to do your puffs at this point
and then get that in, chain one and then puff once again and the same one that you did to
join.
So it's the exact same stitch and now the next five in a row are each going
to be one single crochet.
So don't forget you have to skip the next one so go to the second
one over and do 1 and 2 this one's between the puff, 3 is on top
of the last puff available 4 and 5 and
then you do the puff again, so skip one and go to the second one over and do your puffs
and then what you have to just do then is skip one
and then next one over is that you're gonna do five in a row.
So 1 go in-between the space for 2, top of the last
one that you see here and then 4 and 5
and then you skip one and do another puff.
So that's what I want you to do here and you notice that the puffs are then going to be
then in sequence and if you turn it over like so
you can see that your puffs are now gonna grow up even on a more angle that you see
happening here.
So what I want you to do is finish this round and we'll just review one more time
and then we'll be good to go.
So once I get back around I've got the puff stitch in here.
This is the one that I'd started with so there's gonna be five in a row.
So I'm just gonna do the final two so 1 and 2 and then it's like skip one
and there is the top of the puff.
So what we want to do is that we want to join it to the top of
the puff here but we have to because of where we are.
We have to start in the next round.
So every time you're in this situation you have to start the next round between the puffs.
So in order to start the next round which is round number eight you're just gonna slip
stitch over and now you're in between the puffs
just like this, so then you pull up a large loop and then you begin to puff once again.
So you have three rounds of doing exactly where the puff is right now
and then you switch back to where you were back on row number one or round number one
and two just like where those puffs were originally
were and then you continue again.
So because this is not the starting of time of moving the puff over
we just immediately come to the next one and we do the next five.
So 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
So you only worry about skipping over anything when you're moving the puff from one section
to another just like you see here.
So then here's the next puff you go in between and
so on.
So what I want you to do this is all that it is and you keep switching every three rounds
to be able to move these puffs over to give you the textured
look and it turns out to be quite amazing
and I think it would be a great accessory for your winter decor or even fall and et
cetera.
And I want to finish this one for myself as well because I just love the color and
continuing along.
So let's turn it around and see what we are, we got ourselves into.
So you can see once I pull this out is that you can see that
the puffs have been moving over as you see here
and it's been quite awesome.
And I think that you'll really truly enjoy this project.
So you can see it's gone up on an angle just like it shows in the diagram and
more.
So that's it for now, and you can just finish your cowl and you're good to go.
So on behalf of michaels.com as well as The Crochet Crowd.
Have a great day.
Don't forget to post your photos on Facebook.
We would love to see your creativity.
Have a good one.
We'll see you again real soon.
Bye, bye. 👋

How to Declutter Kids' Toys and an Organized Playroom Tour - Duration: 10:48.
hey it's Abby and if you can't guess by my surroundings today we're going to be
talking about purging and organizing my boys playroom. A couple weeks ago we
showed it all nice and neat and picked up on our home tour but today you can
see that it definitely doesn't look that way all the time so today I want to walk
through the process that I try to go through every six months or so to clean
out and purge as much as we can from their playroom get rid of anything
they're not using anymore anything that's broken or stained or old just get
their playroom in tip-top shape so they can really make the most of the toys
that they have and play with things that they really love. Before we get started
make sure you subscribe so you don't miss any organization inspiration and
get our free bonus by going to abbyorganizes.com/bonus.
So believe it or not the process of purging this space actually started a
couple weeks ago I pay close attention to what my boys are playing with what
they're not using so much anymore and kind of how the systems are working in
their room while they're in here playing and so when I've kind of identified some
things that I don't think they're really using and could maybe be donated
somebody else who could appreciate them I start bringing that up with the boys
ever so subtly and saying, "you know Caleb I haven't seen you play with your
Imaginext toys in a while. Do you think that's something that another kid would
be able to get better use out of or do you think that's something that we could
pass along for now since you're more interested in Legos these days?" and that
gets them used to the idea that some of their toys might be on their way out. Of
course I don't try to do with anything that they're still loving and using all
the time definitely those things are I feel like they're outgrowing or not
using anymore I try to plant those seeds early so it
makes it easier for me in the long run. I usually try to do the first pass of
cleaning out the playroom myself while maybe the boys are at school or just
when they're downstairs because that allows me to just pull out anything, any
junk, anything that needs to be thrown away, anything that's broken. They're not
here saying no I need that little piece of yarn that's really trash and needs to
be thrown away so once I mean my first initial pass then I bring the boys in
and we dump out each bin we look through every one and we decide what to keep
what should be thrown away what we can donate or sell on Craigslist or a
Facebook yard sale group or something like that and we try to go through every
single thing they've gotten pretty good at recognizing you know what's important
to them what they're really gonna use and what we can pass along to somebody
else who will appreciate it more of course there I would probably still get
rid of a lot more things than they're willing to part with but that's okay you
know we make progress and we pare down their items and it works well for us to
go through it together okay so know you know how sometimes when you start a
project it's just going to be this little small thing we were just gonna
declutter in here but once I got all of the toys that we
didn't need anymore cleared out I realized that we could really have a
better configuration for the playroom that would give the boys more room to
play and make more sense from an organization perspective as well so
let's take a look and see what we came up with
so as you can see it looks quite a bit different in here than it did before we
rearranged just about everything but what I love is that with the exception
of one of the Lego towers and these two chairs that I'm standing next to we were
able to do everything with items that we already owned so we didn't have to spend
a lot of money to get our playroom organized and working in kind of the
best way possible so that our boys could enjoy it so right when you come in the
room you'll see the tower with our big toy storage
this was just an Ikea piece I whitewashed it we actually used to have
two of them in here but once we went through the toys with the boys they got
rid of a lot of their larger items so we were able to take it down to just one of
these units to hold their bigger toys now in the corner we have a small little
bin for the stuffed animals that the boys love and just couldn't let go of
and then we have a kolaks shelving unit from Ikea if you remember
in the before pictures we actually had two smaller units like that and this one
actually used to be in Donny's office which we are redoing at the same time he
wanted to get it out of his space so we brought it up here because it works a
little better with the setup that we were going for in the space. On the
bottom shelf we have our bins. They all have a little adhesive book plate on it
with a label that I stuck in it I try to put on the labels both the word and a
picture because little Caleb isn't reading quite yet so that the boys when
they're cleaning up know exactly what goes into each of the bins on the row
above that we have some board games we have some plastic bins that have
different types of toys that we kind of wanted to keep together all their
Imaginext stuff and one, all their connects in another etc and then we have this
little divider it's divided into three parts I found it at the Container Store
and it holds all the ammo for the boys nerf guns which are right here in this
taller Striped bin on the third shelf we have more games we have the books that
Caleb is more interested in down a little lower so he can reach them and we
also have a little cubby that has all their Pokemon which they're really into
right now and finally on the top shelf we have all of Connor's books which he can
reach easily because he's a little taller then above this unit we did
a little art project that the boys helped me with we took some of their comic
books that they already had and some 8 by 10 frames that were just sitting in my
office and we framed each of the comic books putting a little colored piece of
paper behind it to make up any space that they didn't quite fill in and then
just hung them on the wall so it was free it was easy art and it's fun for
the boys because they are things that they love to look at and are interesting
to them. In the room before we had a big card table in the middle of the room the
boys needed some sort of surface because they're always doing art or putting
together Legos or something where they like to be on a surface but I
didn't love that they didn't have a lot of floor space to play on so we got rid
of the card table we brought in this desk that I already had in my office it
was gonna extra just sitting in there and we created this little art station
behind me with the desk these chairs were from Ikea I found them in the as-is
section so I got a really great deal on them I used the rolling cart I already
had to hold all the boys art supplies they're nice and neat and organized
everything has a spot. It's a little rolling art station they can move it
around if they need to to reach something they can take the little bins
out and put them on the desk so everything's really easily accessible
the white magazine rack is also from Ikea I just put some colored duct tape
on it to make it look a little prettier we already had that from the boys
playroom in our last house and it holds all of their coloring books and paper
that they can use to color on and then finally we hung up some of these wires
these are certain holders again from Ikea. We used them in our last house as
well but they are the perfect thing to hold the boys art so we can display it
proudly and they can show off their artwork once they're finished with it
then finally this side of the room is our Lego area Legos are one of the main
things that the boys are playing with right now so I wanted to make sure they
had plenty of room to store the Legos they have and we wanted to make an area
where they could display all the LEGO sets that they put together so first we
have the towers that hold their Legos I could probably make a whole entire video
about my theory behind LEGO storage so let me know in the comments
if you would like to see that if that would be helpful right now we just have
two towers the Legos are just all thrown together from the different sets that
the boys have already put together and then disassembled the only bin that is
separated is I did go through quickly through each bin and bring out all the
Lego guys because especially Caleb our youngest really loves the Lego guys and
so it was easier to have those separate that's the only one that's labeled so
they know all the guys go in that bin and then they can put the other Legos back
in any of the other slots where there is space. In the closet we use the IKEA ALGOT
system to create a Lego display area for all of their completed sets we
didn't really have something like this before so they would complete a set
there was really nowhere to put it inevitably it would get broken and they
would get upset so we really wanted to make a dedicated space to display their
items where they could be proud of them and enjoy them for a little while after
they spent all the time building them along with the Lego display we also have
some boxes that hold some of the boys keepsake items I'll probably do a
separate video on how we handle the boys paperwork and those boxes are part of
that system so that's our new set up. Obviously it's not going to look this
neat and clean all the time we want the boys to enjoy it and to use it and to
really get the most out of it in fact the other day I was at Target
and Donnie texted me and said Caleb has rediscovered so many of his toys and
it's true because when they're toy room is uncluttered and they can actually see
everything that's in here they are more likely to come up here and play with it
because they know what they have and they can easily find what they want.
There are going to be times when the playroom gets messy. When it's time to
clean up they have a spot to put everything back in and it's easy to get
it back looking neat and clean now this setup that we have in this room is
perfect for our specific kids at this specific stage of their life we only
have two kids they're six and eight so they're pretty self-sufficient at this
point they're heading out of the little kid toy phase a little bit so
I'm sure that we have less toys than some people and way more toys than the
other. Every family, every situation, every kid will be different so it's all about
taking whatever space you have and making it work for the needs of you, your
family, and your kids. So I hope seeing our set up and our systems were helpful
for you if it was hit that like button and let me know in the comments what
systems you're using that have been really good for helping keep your kids
toys organized.
