I love that Omy so much!!!! Anyway, I'm glad my mom is feeling better too. Took her to the doc this morning and they are restarting the drug in two days. Eep. ~J

Thanks!! I'm so far behind on FT!!!!!! I'm not sure I've seen a video of yours recently. I'm going to have to fix that. ~J

You'll probably be the first to see it. Hoping we see each other before the retreat starts. Thank you for loving my peacock fabric!! ~J

Ooooh hopefully!☺️

Thanks for watching!! ~J

I'm so lucky I ran across it when I did. I don't really keep an eye on the stash unload pages. ~J

I'm glad you are still watching. Catching up is hard. Good luck!!!! ~J

Ha, ha. You are so sweet. At this point it looks like it'll still work. I'm waiting to hear back about one more meeting and also find out what is happening with my mom's schedule. She has had a terrible reaction to chemo and is currently not taking the pills. I should have a better idea next week. I'll text you later. ~J

I saw that in your WIP parade that I finally got to watch. I love that all the lengths are the same size, but then what happens when you don't use all of that length and you can't park it anywhere? Do you end up having to have another card with blends or do you separate and put shorter lengths back? ~J

@@stitchingatthecabin I used to keep a scrap of aida and mark the symbol on it and 'park' the blends in the scrap

@@stitchingatthecabin I used to keep a scrap of aida and mark the symbol on it and 'park' the blends in the scrap

@@tinastitches Oh, now I remember you said that on the video. I'll have to look for some scraps.

Thank you!!!! That really makes me happy. Have a wonderful week!! ~J

Thank you! The first one is Keto by Annie Stegg. I bought mine on Heaven and Earth Designs, but it's not there anymore. I don't know if it is available anywhere else. I should look. I don't see it, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I only searched for two minutes. ~J

Thanks! Looking forward to watching more from you as well. Have a fabulous week!!!! ~J

That's not good!!!! ~J

That's horrible! You should NOT have to go through hormone imbalance twice. Ugh!! You poor thing. Sadly, I'm not taking any new meds so it probably isn't that. I do wonder if my thyroid meds are off a little. That might explain some of the symptoms. Fingers crossed the doc knows what it is and how to fix it. I'm going to be really bummed if it isn't fixable. ~J

This is super exciting! Thank you!! As much as I love my apple products, I feel like it would be wasteful to get it for iPad and still have my android tablet for PK. But I love Apple. But it doesn't make sense not to get it for Android. But Apple. But Android. Ha ha. ~J

Thank you! Birds are odd creatures. I'm just thankful they mostly don't try to rip it out. If Tango sneaks up behind me on the sofa, sometimes he tries to pluck a few strands from the roots. ~J

@@stitchingatthecabin yikes! Chickenhawk used to climb on top of my head and get all entangled in my hair. He also likes to snuggle under my hair.

Thank you! She is super cute, but not quite as easy as Addy was as a baby. She's keeping Alyssa on her toes. ~J

Thank you! Love your name. Mmmmm...bananas. ~J

I didn't even realize we swapped sides. ~J

Yes!!!! I wish we were all completely open about menopause topics. It's crazy how it affects so much of your life. It's awesome you had an easier time of it. I'm thankful I don't have hot flashes (at least not yet). I made an appointment to see a doc at the end of August, so we will see how it all goes. Fingers crossed she will be helpful and not just brush me off. Fortunately I have backup plans if she does. ~J

Noooooo! I'm so sorry!! That must've been absolutely terrifying. I hope your cancer is under control and you never have to go through chemo or chemo reactions again. Hugs. ~J

@@stitchingatthecabin yes thank you. 10 years cancer free this year

@@sheryldoiron1834 That. Is. Awesome!!

Thank you! It's nice knowing I'm not alone or crazy. Or at least mostly not crazy. Good advice about calming down to remember. Looking forward to getting through this perimenopause portion. Maybe actual menopause is a bit easier. ~J

That sounds like an excellent book. I knew hot flashes were a thing, but you don't hear so much about the mental and emotional toll it takes. I will look this one up too. Thank you so much!!!! ~J

I love this! Yes!!!!!! I keep telling both girls they are going to love stitching one day. ~J

It sounds like you had a miserable time and it started so early!!!! I had no idea it could start fibromyalgia. That's awful!!! Thank you for the vitamin tips. ~J

Thank you! I'm definitely going to look up those books right now. I'm sorry you understand what I'm going through since that means you have been there too, but it helps so much knowing I'm not crazy and I'm not alone. Thank you, thank you, thank you! ~J

@@stitchingatthecabin no worries at all. I have also had the have to more all the time and my gynogologist prescribed vagifem. It doesn’t help right away but it does help significantly after 4-6 weeks. Also helps with dryness and mood swings. Because man. Can’t spend all day running to the bathroom.

The have too pee all the time issue. Typos.

@@sabahmahmood7716 it's a horrible feeling!!!! Thankfully I was prescribed a different antibiotic and I am no longer experiencing that, but you are the second person that told me about Vagifem. I have never heard of that. I am hoping to find a new gynecologist very very soon so I can start getting some help. In the meantime, I appreciate the advice.

I second this, great book.

I never would've stitched those apples had I not seen someone's project on FB. Thank you for all of your kind words. ~J

Ohhhhhhh! I'm sorry you are starting to have symptoms too. I'll text you later to see which ones and if you have found any solutions. We can compare notes. Start all the things!!!! ~J

Well that love was 100% instilled in Addy. She literally walks in my house and I yell "Hi Bob" (that's what I call her) and she yells "Nana". I get my obligatory Old Baby hug and then she immediately grabs a book and says "Nana read". It's the first thing we do every single time. It's also the thing we do over and over and over and over for as long as she's at the house. She also looks to me for her "walk" needs. Papa is where she goes for food and pictures. Ha ha. ~J

@@stitchingatthecabin I love this!!

I don't know how I managed to get two such amazing grand babies. Thanks for watching and sharing your recent WIP. I may not have mentioned I put it on the wheel, but I did. ~J

You are awesome! Thank you for emailing me that link. I also cannot see your reply, so thank you for taking the extra time to email. Also, can I play in your storage unit? I'll bet you have lots of stitchy goodness in there. I'm willing to move boxes to get to it. :) For the record, I had tried looking up the designer, but she's not a stitcher so it was just the artwork. I can't remember who charted it, but I recognized the name. Anyway, you saved the day. Thank you! ~J

@@stitchingatthecabin Absolutely! Come swing by Illinois and we'll play with cross stitch. But, really, most of my cross stitch is with me at the house. I'm thinking it's mostly magazines that I put in storage.

You are so sweet. I hope life is calming down for you and you are finally able to get to all the things you've wanted to. ~J

You said so many nice things. Thank you!! Happy 4th of July!!! Well, I mean if you are in the US. ~J

@@stitchingatthecabin Happy 4th of July 🇺🇸

I didn't notice any hair. I think I'm immune since I had Taco all these years. ~J

Thank you! I just wish I got to see the babies more often. ~J

They are supposed to arrive today! Yay!!!!!!!!! I don't think I told you what charts they were for, now that I think about it. Marine to Life, French something (can't remember - maybe tapestry) and Addie's Window. At least I hope that's what I ordered. It has been a few months. Ha ha. We offer a military discount at all locations and we donate a percentage of sales to Wounded Warrior each year. We finally got the truck back. Hoping not to ever have to take it in again. ~J

@@stitchingatthecabin I just started Addie's Window (mini version)!

@@steffanicagazz2797 oooooh! I want to see it!!! Which corner did you start in? Or center?

@stitchingatthecabin Addie's window and Marine to Life are both cool pieces. I can't search "French something"...need more of a clue! Glad you got the truck back! And very cool about military discount & donations!

@@msufly It just arrived. French Coat of Arms. It's not my normal thing, but I think it'll look great in our castle-themed bedroom.

You are allowed to skip videos and never feel obligated to go back. We all have super busy lives and I totally understand. I do remember the convo about Keto's face. Man, that was a long time ago, wasn't it? Your comment about peri-menopause was like a lightbulb moment for me. Thank you so much!!!! I don't know why that didn't really click until you said it. You are absolutely right. That's probably exactly what it is. I tried to make an appointment with my gyn this morning, but she is no longer on my list of easy to email doctors. I will have to call the appointment center and see if I can see her directly or if I have to go through my regular doctor and get referred. Either way I will eventually get to her. Thank you! I think everyone around me will be happier if I get myself a bit more even in the emotion department. ~J

... and now it took me ages to write back 🤦🏻‍♀, even though I wrote myself a note to do so. 🙈 I know I don't have to watch all your videos, but there are some Flosstubers I enjoy and like to see and hear what they have been up to, your channel is one of those. 🌻 I think women still do not talk about their bodies and what we go through every month enough. If we don't even share with our friends, how are we going to share with others like doctors, spouses, colleagues, work mates & bosses, ... ? So I have started talking about issues I am having and therefore found out that I seem to have been in peri-menopause since I was about 38 or so, I am now turning 50 and the actual menopause is still pretty far away, but I have symptoms that I did not know what to do with until I took a whole list to my gyno and she told me that all (except for one) can be menopause related. If I had talked to other women in my life I might have realized that a lot earlier and been able to do something about it or just know what it is and not worry. I hope you get an appointment soon and that you get some help and information. 🤞🏻 Take care and happy stitching 🪡🧵🥰

@@FrostyXStitch I'm glad your doctor listened to you. I'm a bit worried mine won't but mainly because the two doctors I trust are missing. I mean I'm sure they aren't really truly missing, but the appointment people said neither has a schedule and they don't see when they will be back. One of them I have been trying to see for like 3 years. I guess I will have to give in and find a new one. That didn't go well before. I think I will avoid men (not being sexist but have had some horrible experiences with male gynecologists). I'm super thankful you pointed out this perimenopause thing. I don't know how long it would've been for me to realize on my own.

To me it sounds, as if those two doctors who seem to be missing, have actually left the place they were working at. I have had some bad experiences with women gynecologists, but would still always chose a woman over a man in that department, if only for the reason that they actually KNOW what a period can feel like! I hope you have found a new doctor in the mean time.

You are so sweet!!! Thank you! ~J

Thank you for the pep talk. I'm going to do what I want! Ha ha. Actually my material packs are scheduled to arrive today so definitely some new starts in my future. Woohoo!! ~J

Happy belated birthday!!!! 62 is still young. When I was a kid, 62 was so old. Now that I'm 48, old is like 96. Maybe. Maybe 100. ~J

I will gladly show storage if I ever figure it out. Ha ha. They barely cleaned the truck. Sigh. We will be doing a more thorough cleaning ourselves. We will have to go back at least one more time for service and then maybe we will switch to another dealer. I suspect it may happen at others too though. You should start all the afghans too!!!! ~J

@@stitchingatthecabin I still would love to see what you decide to do because I’m struggling with storage issues for my stitching too. Love to see all the ideas. That’s nuts that they did that bad of a job on cleaning it for you after all of that. Ugh I want to start all the things, but I want to finish all the things too. I love startitis, but then I get overwhelmed. Lol

@@noelwilcox9989 the service guy was at the doctor so he didn't see the completed job, but I'm horrified that this was the best "detailing" they could do. I feel you with startitis.

@@stitchingatthecabin right, it seems like someone who is blind could do a better job. That’s really bad service from them. What about taking it to be cleaned and then giving them the bill since it’s their fault? Or is that bad to do?

@@noelwilcox9989 There is no smell. They replaced the carpet at the time they fixed the leak. That just leaves the seats which they say they cleaned well before. If I could smell things, I'd be more concerned. We will just do some sanitizing and all should be right with the world. Or at least the truck.

It took all my will power not to message you the other night. I was watching On Patrol which is like Cops only it's live or at least close to it. Anyway, someone had been attacked by a machete. I had no idea slapping someone with the side looks almost more painful than the slashing/stabbing wounds. ~J

😱

Welcome!!!!! Thank you for such kind words. I hope you stick around and see all the projects (there are a lot). ~J

If they all get stolen it totally wasn't me, luckily for you there is a rather large ocean between us 😆😆

Oh. My. Goodness. You crack me up. I will be your neighbor dragon curled up on my fabric horde as well. But I will breathe fire in your general direction if you try to steal mine. It's probably good there is an ocean between us. Ha ha. ~J

Thank you!! So far I'd say she's a keeper. Ha ha. ~J

Congratulations!!!!! Is she doing well for being early? I assume you spent some time in the NICU as well. ~J

Actually she was considered the premi but really wasn’t she was born at 8lbs and we just stayed in the hospital for three days. She’s doing wonderful

@@themadstitcher13 8 lbs is the largest premie I've ever heard of. ha ha. I'm so glad she's doing well and that you are too (I assume). ~J

Is it returnable? Bah ha ha ha ha. Love that!!! I set it up yesterday so I think it's officially mine with no givesies backsies. I think it'll be nice to have the option of home or office. I've worked from home for over 20 years now. It has some definite pros, but now I think I'll be able to get the best of both worlds. I appreciate how lucky I am. Wanna come over and we can go to dinner at the place with the creepy guy? You can ride in the back of the truck! ~J

I suspect this was my last deal. I don't have the space or the need for anything more. I imagine there will be more babies though. ~J

I vote yes on staying home and stitching. Somehow I feel like weird people would still somehow find a way to talk to me though. I am a magnet for that. ~J
