I had my dream job. I did 20yrs,.. my whole life was great, i was told i should retire and enjoy. So i did... then it hit me. I loved my job, coworkers and the connection to my hobbies and activities. I lost my seniority position i earned,.. wasn't able to return. I had stress, ... turned into anxiety and insomnia. Eventually sank into severe depression. Now, i hate life. I just suffer. The regret, guilt and self blame. Depression, i didn't know this could happen. It is so inhumane 😢,

The Oura ring is amazing - dump your big bulky annoying and distracting Smart Watch and get a cool - minimalist Oura Ring. It rocks !!

My fave smoothie recipe: frozen banana (has to be frozen!!), peanut butter, unsweetened cocoa powder, a date, almond milk.

I so love theReal Lime

Maybe a second book is in your future?! Tidy space, Tidy mind? I would love to read it!!

Chips! 🙌😂

♥❤♥

I love these kinds of videos hehe! This motivated me to go through some things in my office that were long overdue. Ugh why is there always so much paper haha

I just want a piece of your watermelon now.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video! I needed to hear this because your journey into dating is similar to mine. I’ve taken 3 years of healing and being alone to finally starting to date. This year I feel very much ready, but I am feeling emotional when I think how will it be to hold someone’s hand again, or kiss someone new, or just start something with someone? It’s all really overwhelming to know how it will be. But, thank you so much for your words, your honesty, and your grace. ❤

YAY a 30 minute vlog! I really look forward to these ❤

Hi, MARE, I just want you to know that you have taught me so much. I am totally crazy about your book. I have read it four times in one week. I just got it last week and I’m now reading it again. Like you I am also a widow. My husband was in a motorcycle accident he had way too much brain damage and they said he could not sustain life that way. And so his mother decided to pull life support although I didn’t want to do it she did. I said no she said yes, and it was a big fight. Anyway, two days after my husband died I lost my son. He was born dead he was born with only half of his brain. I miss them both every single day of my life. They said I could never have any kids anymore because my bod is too small to carry them and they would die, which is true because two years later, I miscarried again well miscarried not again, but I miscarried, so I unfortunately had to have surgery to prevent me from having kids again. I tried adopting they said no to me and my honey because he is half deaf. He’s blind and autistic too. I am blind autistic, and I also have epilepsy as well and slight CP. So they said definitely not that so several years later my current sweetie pie and I got our first special reborn son. We call them kids not dolls. His name is Richard Thomas. He was named after my brother and my granddad. All of our special reborn kids have a special needs like us like our second one Lonzie, named after my sweetie. He is blind and deaf like him. My sweetheart has a hearing deficit that’s pretty bad. He has a cochlear implant just like Thomas, does. So believe me we know about the cooker implant. It’s not been easy road for my honey, but he’s trying so hard. So our second reborn son Lonzie has the same thing that his daddy does. But I just want you to know that you’re amazing. And a good friend and a good sister. We both have adopted you and Thomas and the unicorn in our family. Every time you post I get happy because I know it’s gonna be good. Question for you do you know of any vegan substitute for eggs or bacon? I love both of them, but I’m trying to lose some weight and also trying to make myself a bit healthier. Hope you have a great day, my friend and if you ever need somebody, we’re all here for you OK oh, I forgot. Do you know any type of vegan chips? Yes I know crazy right? Anyway have a great one.

I have the same Pampered Chef garlic press, love it. Yes, the company still exists!

I struggle with motivation which is why I so enjoy watching you. I am always hoping some bits of your enthusiasm will rub off and cling onto me. 👍🏼♥️🇨🇦

Amazing day wow

I see you and I still completely feel everything you feel about constantly having to reschedule, postpone or cancel plans with Elise's journey. Thanks for bringing light to this.

I'd also be curious about everyone's to-do list for the today. On my to-do list today: - collect laptop from IT place - reply to external supervisor's email - pick outfit for work tomorrow - clean our Airbnb guest house - laundry - meal plan - food shop - text clients - take fish out of freezer to thaw

I definitely feel this. The major change in my routine messes with me so much every year and while it feels like everyone is so excited for the summer, I almost dread it. I am also trying to make to do lists and a list of things that I would like to do this summer even if it is something simple like sit and read in the park. :) I tried to make a to do list on my phone but it was just not satisfying at all. I need to cross it out when its done! Check! (Monica Gellar style). I looove that mirror in the upstairs bathroom! :D

Love the bathrooms! You are not flaky and anyone who knows you totally understands that Thomas will always be your priority. Anyone who doesn't understand that you don't want in your life anyway, and that is a FACT! List and schedules have helped me in everything my whole life so no intent to change that now 🤣

I appreciate you. My ex completed suicide 2 days ago.

With no structure I become a turnip and with a little structure I turn into a snail. It is partly my own personality and partly my early existence that has taught me the fine art of accomplishment through lists.👍🏼♥️🇨🇦😊

GREAT VIDEO! So happy to see this. I notice the ring light for sure, awesome :) Moving sounds exciting and a wonderful change if it helps your son in the future <3

Great to catch up. The ring light seems to be a great addition, you look wonderful, healthy and glowing.

Took me a second when you said T is going to highschool wow! The Owala is life changing honestly hehe enjoy! 😄

Sorry no tik tic😂 So happy to see this❤️❤️❤️ I enjoy the RUclips, Instagram and the interaction with other members on Facebook but you know what's working best for the group. Only been gone two weeks and miss that drive already!!! Love that Thomas is still enjoying the horses. Reminder for any members that belong to Prime and use a Kindle you can sign up to get a free ebook through Prime for your Kindle, I get an email the first of every month reminding me 👍 The lighting definitely makes a big difference it looks really good. Nice haul🙂 Miss you❤️

Hi Mare and Thomas...Sooo good to see you. You mentioned TicTok. I do watch it but in reality if Canadian it really seems like there really is no benefit. Most Canadians are pushing Facebook and Instagram hard where they do a couple lives a month and it seems more beneficial to you and the followers. The last light in you kitchen from your ring light was great lighting. Very excited to be watching you in the Summer Series and can't wait to do some catching up. Hope you and the family are doing well.🥰🥰🥰

This was such a nice surprise catch up! I was watching a different video while on my break and saw your notification pop up and switched right away 😃 Definitely noticed the nice light especially in the kitchen so I'm sure it'll come in handy. Excited ahout the Summer Diary series! ☀️😎

Great to see you and Thomas again and so delighted you are starting a summer series. 👍🏼♥️🇨🇦

Well! What a nice surprise 😊

Its a subconscious thing tho we dont “want” to build ourselves up and be upset thats why we here to learn not too 😢, I feel more grieving toward my mothers death anniversary then ever before 😢

Wow, walking on eggshells, YES! What a throwback, it really was the best color! So great to catch up with you 😊 God bless!

I'm so sorry for what you're going through! I would be interested in a trauma experience video from you. My brother (35) just started having seizures out of the blue this year and is going through testing, it's been very difficult and scary. Sending lots of love and healing your way.

I lost my husband 6 months ago, so tough!!! I can't believe 😢 he is gone. yesssssssss you are a different person, God bless😢 !!!

This dose of Thomas absolutely kept me smiling... he is such an amazing young man.

This is beautiful. Thank you

I could not stop looking at your Apple Watch bands!!! Did you mix and match the sides?

The Crown latest season so bad! And I am very sorry about your Mom Mare. I haven't been here in yrs. And didn't you get married? ❤

I love the new look of the office. The couch is awesome! Also can we bring back the mareathoner book club?

Thanks so much for sharing. It has encouraged me to and given me confidence that I can stop using sleeping pills also.

🥰

Brooklyn 99 is so good like you said the perfect comedy. That and friends got me through med school 😂

Great tips in this video! I have been really struggling recently when it comes to meal time and decision fatigue. Ive been thinking a lot lately about hiring a nutritionist as I feel like I need help in this area, but being a vegetarian I haven’t found any meal plans that have really worked for me. What you described in this video is exactly the service I was hoping existed out there somewhere. Any chance you can share the info for the nutritionist that you’ve been working with?

Even if I dont build it up in my mind, my body still remembers. I will start feeling funky and then ill remember what time of year it is. Its been 28 yrs.

You can actually buy a glove that prevents cuts, might be a thought with your mandolin history❤️ Love the office, filing in the closet is awesome!!!!

What brand of walking pad do you have?

Oh no! Use a clean work glove when using those mandolins!!

Was wondering where you got your couch in your office.

The office looks great!

Easy question….easier answer. The single socks have found a way to get across the lake using your Tupperware! 👍🏼♥️🇨🇦
