    Dear Gayle..I am so thankful you mentioned your take on wearing masks during this crisis. With 38 k+ subscribers who respect and admire you, you have a platform to reach folks who might otherwise not think about this. I fail to understand why it should even be an ‘issue’ but gently persuading folks to be kind to others as well as themselves is very important these days. Thank you for your voice of common sense 😘

      And thank YOU for understanding the situation. Unfortunately, so many are taking advantage of the medical exception clause by just breezing through door security with a medical-exception comment with no proof. My offspring works retail and tells me that the personnel knows some people are lying just to get out of wearing masks and as a disabled person myself, this makes me so mad. They would change their tune fast enough if they had to wear their exception papers around their necks similar to the way we have disabled placards for our cars to park in certain places.

Those cones are the worst aren’t they? For everyone! We would take it off while they ate and drank and just watched them. Some were better than others at leaving their stitches alone.

    I have breathing problems but I still wear my mask, because I have other health issues. What I do when I can't breathe is find an aisle in the store where no one is at and pull out the bottom of my mask to catch my breath. So far I have been kept safe. I agree we need our masks. I also keep hand sanitizer in my car.

      rachelle e. I always thought the cone was so that they don’t lick their stitches and get infected. It’s been a while since I’ve had a dog fixed but I remember the cone but I’m sure it wasn’t for two weeks and I always took it off when I could watch him and only put it on him when he wasn’t in eyesight.

    Good afternoon Gayle. If you don’t have project life cards, I use lined index cards that I coffee dyed and I just round their corners with a punch. When we had our puppy fixed the vet used a collar that looks like a neck brace, and she was able to eat and lay down comfortably, no crashing into things. Jimmy Joe will be clumsy until he gets use to his cone, poor baby. We’re mandated to wear mask, even at the beaches now. I just go out when needed, been ordering things online. I miss my thrift store shopping 😢.

    Hey Gayle! I have a little time to watch a few videos this morning and was so happy to see you making an altered journal. They are so much fun to do and the results turn out so great!
    I just loved the embroidery panels you received in the last video. I can just see them making some great covers for journals already. Can't wait to see you use them.
    I must tell you a story about what happened this past weekend. We have so many critters around our home. Lots of bunnies, which we love watching. But we also have others that can be a nuisance. One being groundhogs, which are plentiful in PA (the reason why Feb 2 groundhog day is done from PA). Groundhogs love tearing up and eating gardens. They also like to dig holes in the worst places around your house. So, my hubby uses live traps to capture them and then relocate them in a better place, away from people. Well, we have seen a small groundhog running across our back porch and so, my hubby set up the trap last week to try and catch him. Well, the first critter in the trap was a bunny and he let him go and reset the trap. On Friday, we had come home from grocery shopping and my hubby said he smelled something. But I didn't smell anything, so he shrugged it off. Well, Saturday morning, I'm in the kitchen and I hear a shout from upstairs bathroom, where you can look out the window and see the trap..."Oh no!!! I think there's a skunk in the trap!! Nooooo!!! What the heck am I going to do!!!" I called up if he was sure. And so he went outside to check & sure enough, there was a skunk in the trap. I actually started laughing about it...just the thought of having trapped a skunk...what a fun adventure this was going to be, right!? Well, my hubby was in a panic about what to do with this thing, but did notice that the critter was laying down and not really moving. He could see him still breathing. The trap was in a shaded area, but Saturday, temperatures were in the 90s and so, very hot outside, even in shade. Anyway, I told my hubby not to worry, it would work out and I looked up on TH-cam videos on how to get a skunk out of a live trap. You have to hang a blanket in front of you, so they can't see you and then cover the trap. I guess they won't spray anything they can't see. So, my hubby followed the directions and got the trap with the skunk in the back of the truck. No problem there. We have an area just a few miles from here that is actually a wildlife improvement area and that's where we too it. My hubby was able to get it out of the cage, but he thought he wasn't alive anymore. We think with the heat or maybe it died of a heart attack from fright. The critter had scratched the ground out below the trap trying to get out, so possibly got dehydrated doing that? We felt bad about it as we both like skunks, even with their little defense mechanism. They are so cute! My hubby really hates to hurt anything, too, as do I. So, we felt really terrible and wished we had to of looked when my hubby said he smelled something on Friday.
    Speaking of skunks, did I ever tell you about the summer we went RV camping with my daughter and her family. We were all sitting around a campfire, starting to eat dinner, when we noticed a skunk coming up to where we were. I mean, this skunk was not frightened of us at all. And then, we saw another one & another one & another one...there were about 5 skunks that came up to us; a whole family. I guess they smelled the food and wanted to invite themselves to dinner. LOL Well, we all scattered and tried to figure out how to get rid of them without them spraying us or our camper, of which they eventually were under. I was especially worried about them spraying the camper. (This had happened to my family, when I was a teenager, when we were camping and the skunk smell does not go away too quickly.) Finally, my brave son-in-law got out a hose and started to spray them with water. Well, it worked and we were saved from anything stinky happening. It was funny and still is a good laugh amongst us.
    I agree with you about the masks. Why take the chance? Plus, there are some of us who are at high risk if we do get it.
    Well, Gayle, hope you are having a good day. God Bless. Sue

    I like the idea of using our many digi kits to decorate the altered book. I can get tired of a theme pretty quickly and here when one might be tired of one kit, it’s time to use a different kit. Genius!

I am happy JJ is home ok, poor thing, he deserves lots of kisses and love! To me, wearing a mask is like putting a shirt on now. If I go out the door without it, I feel naked! We are doing so far good here in MA. I hope it stays this way! but you can tell everyone is on the edge, it is like waiting for something to explode and not knowing when!

    Hi Gayle, I just want to thank you for your videos. I've been watching for awhile now, but usually I'm crafting along with you and so I have to hit pause a lot so I haven't seen everything. I just wanted to tell you how much I love you and your channel. You are so uplifting and sweet.
    My husband is a pastor and we will be moving to our new church - it's a few hours away - over the next few months. Our move was delayed, quite a bit because of some of the COVID and other house stuff. Anyway, my community is really far away and I love it, it's just a little more difficult to connect with people right now. You have been such a gift to me during this time.
    Nobody else in my family really gets my papercrafting. They're sweet and supportive, but just don't get it :) That's one reason I really enjoy hanging out with you. I grab my water bottle and craft away with you.
    You do such an amazing job making this personal enough that people feel like your friend. That's not easy to do either. My husband and I have done some FB Live chats for the church and it's fun but can be challenging.
    Anyway, super happy to have found you and your channel.
    Thank you for all you do!
    Oh, BTW, I am doing my first altered book with you and learned a very big lesson (that you also mentioned) for the next one. I grabbed a book at the dollar store and I was so excited because it has the uneven edges, etc. However, I didn't think to look at what the book is about. So many awful words! I didn't even realize it until I was already partly in .OMGoodness! I need to make sure I cover this book well. LOL

S9 anyways we all had to sign a paper saying were NOT ALLOWED to ask a customer to put a mask on! But yet were all required to. I said i bet ya if it were the other way around that same person coming in refusing to wear their mask wouldn't appreciate if our server took theirs off to serve them. Im no stickler by any means i also have asthma and in my 100 degree kitchen there are times when i need to step back and take a breather. The crazy part of it is im the only cook back there im only around people when i bring food out 🤷. but i love the seat belt comparison. Its one thing if you want to endanger yourself but people need to be more considerate of others.

Spent 10 hours in the ER, trying to get the nausea and dehydration under control, along with scans and other tests, and then another 4 weeks not being trusted to walk by myself. My husband is still with me every time I go out, because, I can get unbalance so easily The diagnosis was an inner ear infection. I hope you feel better soon. I hope Jimmy Joe heals quickly.

Have him step into the sleeves and button the shirt along his back. It worked for my dog. Also, I have heard of people putting basketball shorts on their dogs instead of the cone. Just a thought. :) I love hearing the affection in your voice when you talk about him. Best of luck!

    Don’t know how far ahead you are with filming or if JJ still has the cone, but go to Petsmart and get a collar that you blow air into. It’s so much better than the cone. It fits around the neck, fills with air, and the shouldn’t be able to reach what they are to stay away from. Seriously makes a HUGE difference and makes life so much better.

    I’m so enjoying the altered book, I haven’t made one for probably 15 years and I never finished that one. Maybe I should just pick that one up and continue with it. I always wear my mask when I go out even though I have asthma and it’s hard to breathe, it keeps me from staying in the stores too long. I always figure I wear an uncomfortable bra when I go out, not for me, but for you. I wear pants when I go out, not for me, but for you, and I wear a mask when I go out, not for me, but for you. The people that think it’s taking away their liberties are probably the same ones that don’t wear a seatbelt with their kids riding on their lap in their car instead of in a car seat. Anybody who wants to call me a sheep that’s fine Baaaa, baaaa. 🐑 🐑

    what a wonderful idea to use the digitals Gayle - this is going to be a beautiful altered book - i have made two altered books within the last year - much different than this tho - i have cut out windows, doors, brads, eyelets hinges etc - grungy lol - this is so very pretty and i look forward to watching this series - and Yes please continue wearing masks - my goodness its so important - its the only way to keep it under control - my son has been an Essential Worker throughout the Pandemic and i want to scream at those who oppose wearing them - its very scary as well as sad - i am in NY and we suffered terribly - but blessings to you Gayle - be well as spread the goodness xx

    Gayle it cracks me up when you call Jimmy Jo a " little guy". I'm so glad he came through ok but 2 weeks noooo. I have never had a dog I had no idea they had to wear a cone that long. Thank you so much for your beautiful work with my digi. This is going to be a treasure for someone. Hugs, Amy💕😺

    Just watching this video ( it is March 21 by now) and liking your comments about wearing masks very much! By now it has become automatic, like standing 2 meters apart, when talking to somebody! At least the masks kept our faces warm during the winter. I like your book tutorial, I bought a book to start my own.

    I wonder if your middle ear has been affected by covid? Wearing masks indoors is mandatory in New Zealand. We had to give up elimination once omicron became prevalent. I pretty much have been in isolation since February except to go to the doctor or chemist. The chemist will deliver. I have PTSD and had to practice wearing a mask at home because the feeling of something over my mouth triggered flash backs. Now I am use to it and wouldn't dream of going out without it on. My doctor says wearing a mask and my glasses is very good protection. I am about to have my 2nd booster. I watch you every day Gayle and am getting lots of ideas from this altered book project. I hope the little fur grand baby survives the cone of shame. Poor fellow. Lots of love from Aotearoa New Zealand. 😊

    Poor Jimmy Joe, the cone of shame for a whole 2 weeks! That's what we called it whenever my little man had to wear it. If Khan didn't eat much while he had to wear it, I used to take it off just so he could eat unencumbered. Hopefully he won't do you too much damage with it. Loving seeing the book come to life.

  • @junebamburg1704

    Hi Gayle, loving this journal. I like that you are using different people’s digitals. I still can’t print but I thought I could use thin scrapbook paper. I haven’t made an altered book before. I just make journals as giveaways for family, friends and me. I hope JJ feels better today. Sometimes Vets. let you take the cone off while they eat and hold them with their leash putting it back on quickly after. It might be worth asking. Stay safe and well. ❤️🐶

    i love how eclectic this altered book is, what a great idea to use different digital kits. i was thinking the same thing, to use the scraps from kits to decorate/collage cards. i'm going to see if i can pick a favorite page when your all done... nah, never mind, i can't pick just one even now!!! poosr jimmy joe :-( he must be so confused with his "new normal" thankfully it will be over soon. just keep lovin on him, and stay out of his way! hugs xo

    That’s really weird you’re having the dizziness going on, I just started having a problem with it too yesterday. It’s very annoying and I think I even fell last night when I got up to run to the restroom...I don’t think I dreamed it 🙄.
    Poor Jimmy Joe I feel bad for him but I did laugh out loud when you said Mike said “hi cone head” that was hilarious. Have a good day!
