Hi Lindsay! Happy Saturday! I hope your dad is making good progress to coming home. I have a hack that helped my mom get over her post hospital stay pneumonia. A visiting nurse told her to do this every half hour or so. Take three quick deep breaths and then cough three times. It helps move the fluid in your lungs. It helped get her over it quickly. I hope your dad can recover soon. 😊🙏🏻
That is a wonderful tip, thank you so much for sharing!
That is a really good tip. My aunt who is a nurse gave me that tip as well. Another thing that is really good for a person is to sit outside in the fresh air and hopefully sunshine for at least 15 minutes. Even if you have to really bundle up it is so good to be exposed to fresh air.
Keeping you, your family and especially your dad in my thoughts and prayers - praying for a speedy recovery and relief of your stress. Hang in there!!
Thank you so much, your kindness means a lot.
Keeping you and your family in my prayers, take good care of yourself my dear ❤!
Sending prayers for you and your family that your father has a speedy recovery!!!!!
Sending love, comfort and healing.💜💜💜
Lindsay, I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad's health decline. It's so hard watching our parents become less sturdy than we grew up with. Here's sending you lots of love and strength and humour to get you through any tough times ahead. ♥
Thanks 😊
I look forward to Satchat all week, never disappointed. Prayers and good vibes to your family!
I appreciate your good vibes and prayers!
I’ll keep your dad in my prayers. I wish him a speedy recovery. Have a good weekend. As always I appreciate you.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that!
Good morning and happy Sat chat. Prayers to your dad on a quick and well recovery. I so look forward to the oil stick video . Have a great weekend💕💕
Thank you so much!
Hello Lindsay....praying for your Dad and the whole family. Thank you for taking the time to record a Sat Chat amidst all that is going on! Be well and take care of yourself ❤❤
I really appreciate your support, thank you.
@@thefrugalcrafterwe truly appreciate you and your generosity in sharing your time too!
I’m keeping your family in my prayers and wishing a speedy recovery for your dad. Big hugs.🤗
Thank you so much, that means a lot!
You and your family is in my thoughts and prayers. Watching you over the years has helped me through some uninspired times and pulled me through. Thank you for that. Liz
I appreciate it:)
Hi Lindsay!
Thanks for
Being here for us despite this tough time for you and your family! Sending hugs to you all!
Thank you so much, it means a lot.
And I'll be looking forward to the Harvest Bounty Gouache Class. You are so generous to share your talents with us@
It's going to be a fun one.
Judging by how you've described your dad, he must be so frustrated that he can't just go back to work. Sending lots of internet love and good wishes for his recovery, release from the hospital, and for you and family in your pain and stress.
The ink and wash class looks awesome.
The new classes sound awesome! I’m very excited for them!
I hope you enjoy them!
Hullo Lindsay, I have mentioned before that I learned watercolor painting from my Gran at 10 years old. I will confess that I was NOT excited about the summer time classes when I was told that was what I was going to be doing for most of my summer holiday! I was a little bit surly and my Gran said that I did not have to paint,I could just read. I found her Audubon field guide collection and I was mesmerized! I asked her the next day if I would be able to make pictures like those? She laughed and said that if I applied myself and really absorbed her instructions I would be allowed to try by the end of summer, I was hooked! Now my minks and the raccoon were not going to win any awards but I still love creating fauna and floral pictures! My first “best effort” was a tulip and they are still my favorite flower to create even today! Thank you for sharing your time with us, we all are wishing you health and happiness for you and your family and redoubled for your father’s recovery. I am tremendously interested in the oil sticks and water soluble oil paint sticks too! Please take care, stay safe and be happy!
Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot.
So sorry to hear your father is back in hospital, sending best wishes to you and your family, at this difficult time! Thank you for carrying on with the Sat Chats, it is appreciated! ❤❤❤
Sending healing vibes for your dad and family.
I was so looking forward to the gouache 12 project class. I was gonna do one for each month and give it as Christmas gifts. But totally get the craziness going on. You are amazing and I will be looking forward to that class next year. Love all that you do and how real you are. Thank you for brightening my days when you post a video. I even watch the ones I’m not as interested in because of your personality. Been watching for many years now. Thank you again 😊
Thank you so much, you are so kind!
Best wishes for your dad and family Lindsay. Good luck.
That's so kind of you, thank you.
😮I did not see any wrinkles. Praying for your dad. Blessings
Prayers for you and your dad that he recovers fully and quickly and you weather this emotionally stressful time with love and support 💜
Hi Lindsay!Great SATChat! Enjoyed your vids this week and your ‘Drawing Course ‘, what fun. Yes wrinkles mean we are living and have lived! Try to have a swell weekend, and worry about your family and care for yourself! Say ‘Hi!’, to Dad for me🎉
You're so sweet, thank you! I'll give Dad your greetings.
Praying for your dad, your mom, and YOU. You are blessed with parents you love and who love you. Thank you for sharing your heart. 🤗
Thank you for your kind words!
So sorry to hear about your Dad. I wish him a speedy recovery and hope you get at least one more good holiday season with him. Just in the last week I received the first round of bad news on both my parents' health. It had to happen sometime, I guess. We know it's coming our whole lives, but when that time arrives, it's always such a blow. Virtual flowers and hugs to you both.
It’s never easy when it happens, I’m sending you both hugs too.
Sending healing energy to your dad! ❤ my dad’s in the hospital for pneumonia too! X.x thankfully he responded to antibiotics and will be discharged next week!
I absolutely agree with your decision to stop Inktober. I tried for a few days, but my hands acted up and I stopped. Your health, mental and physical, is more important than an art challenge. Your hair looks great btw, hahah, it reminds me that I need to wash my hair too. 😅
I’m looking forward to your oil stick experiments. I love your DIY projects! That’s how I found your channel all those years ago. 🎉
I hope you have a wonderful weekend and a good visit with your dad! Don’t worry about comments and focus on your family ❤❤❤
Thanks for the well wishes! I'm so glad your dad is doing better.
Best wishes for your father’s recovery. Your ink and wash botanical class sounds great! I’m looking forward to it. Flowers will be great to paint during the end of winter into spring
I’m really looking forward to teaching it!
Sorry to hear about your Dad. Sending you the biggest electronic hug Lindsay.
Prayers and blessings for your dad that he will get better soon. Have a nice weekend! ❤
Thanks so much
Sending prayers for your dad. Lindsay I hate any temp under 75 degree Fahrenheit, I understand. Thanks for the Sat Chat!!
Thank you so much, I appreciate it!
So sorry to hear your dad is back in the hospital. Wishing a speedy recovery for him. Hang in there. Hope you have a good weekend.
Thank you so much, I appreciate it.
Oh Lindsay, I am so sorry that your dad is back in the hospital. I'm sending him good thoughts for healing and strength to kick that pneumonia to the curb!! And sending you a big virtual hug!🤗💕
Thank you so much, I appreciate it.
Prayers for your father’s recovery. The St Louis set is really cool but I know I don’t need it. I have the DS split primary set that I purchased on sale a while back but the ceramic round pans are so cool. Enjoyed SatChat as always. 🙂
Thanks for thinking of my dad. I’m glad you enjoyed Sat Chat.
Wishing your dad strength and light,
May healing hands hold him tight.
In every breath, hope and peace,
May his health return with sweet release.
❤
That's so kind of you, I appreciate it.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family!!! We appreciate all you share... but family is first!!! We love you! ❤️ From a grateful California Gramma ❤😂🎉
Thank you so much, your kindness means a lot.
Lindsay, hope your dad heals quickly. Have a good week. Thanks for this week's video. See you soon! Looking so forward to the new class! I started the drawing class yesterday, and I am loving it!
Thanks, I’m really looking forward to it too!
Prayers for you and your family. Looking forward to the new class!!
Thanks 😊
My thoughts are with you and your family. Hope your dad is doing better and gets home very quickly.
He is doing a little bit better, thank you for thinking of him.
Praying for your father and family. 🙏❤️
Sending best wishes to your Dad for a speedy recovery, and to you and your family for comfort and strength. It's very stressful when your parents get ill, so don't forget to look after yourself too. 🙂
"Buying when you don't have the time to do" is the story of my life. I realized I was doing that a few weeks ago. Whenever I was overwhelmed with work (I work many hours a week in a high pressure job), I'd start hoarding art supplies. It was like "Ok, I don't have the time do make/create but I can at least click a few times and buy. Takes a minute." And then of course, I would get that high from a purchase and the possibilities and the colorful shininess of it. All the best to your father.
It’s funny how our brains work that way, isn’t it?
Sending love ❤️ from Texas!
I enjoy your artist gift guides so much!
Me too, I’m really looking forward to making the next one!
Sending you a big hug Lindsey and prayers for your Dad for a speedy recovery, full recovery.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that!
The new botanical class sounds lovely! Prayers for your father. Thanks for all your Sat chats to brighten our days. Funny stories about making the oil pastels.
Thank you! It was fun to make the pastels.
Wishing your dad all the best Lindsay, hope the rest of the family is doing OK.
I also bailed on inktober this year, i was forcing myself to do it and finding no joy in it so realised it didn't make sense to keep going. Sounds like you're being sensible and taking care of yourself. Keep your energy for the most important things, you and your family.
Hi , Lindsey! I always enjoy your lessons and conversations, You look marvelous! I hope your dad is better soon! Love you, best to your family too! By the way your hair is always lovely!
Thank you so much, it means a lot to me!
You sound so busy. I get it about the older folks and hospitalizations. We just hang in there and do what we gotta do. We are thinking of your Dad, you and your family. ❤❤
Thank you so much, your kind words mean a lot.
HI Lindsay! Wow! those are some BIG oil sticks.
I'm so sorry that your father is back in the hospital. Sending more positive, healing energy to your dad.
TFS 💕
Thanks! I'm trying to keep busy and focused!
Your hair always looks great! Best wishes for your dad's speedy recovery and drive safe!
Thanks, I appreciate it!
The line & wash class sounds lovely. I was looking forward to the Gouache harvest class too, glad it's still coming! 🙏🏻 prayers for a speedy recovery for your Dad, and for your strength and peace of mind, as it's so difficult when you can't fix things when your loved ones are ill.
Thank you so much for your kind words.
Lindsay, the pen and ink botanicals are beautiful!!!!!!!
Thanks 😊
Thinking of and praying for you and your family with your dad’s health issues.
When my husband was going through his cancer journey, I kept a bag of colored pencils and a small adult coloring book with me. It helped me calm my mind and center my spirit in the midst of a horrible time. Just a thought as you spend time w your dad. Coloring doesn’t necessarily require much thought- you can be present with him and not get overwhelmed with the gravity of the days. ❤❤❤
Good idea, I always have my sketchbook but I have not used it there.
Wishing your dad a speed recovery Lindsay. ❤
Thank you so much!
Hi Lindsey, thanks for the sat chat it always make me smile you should have a stand up comedy routine…
I hope that your dad makes a speedy recovery… make sure he gets lots of chest stimulation to keep those lungs free ❤
They have a bed that pounds on his back daily to loosen stuff up.
@@thefrugalcrafter excellent news.. I do wish him well and he’s back home again soon x
I have wrinkles too ! That's life ❤! You're great 🎉
Thank you! I’m glad I’m not alone!
Praying your dad is well soon. Your hair never looks bad. You're beautiful, talented, caring, and an awesome, good person. Take time to care for yourself. ❤
Thank you so much, that means a lot to me.
Sending love and light to you and your family, and your dad especially💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Thank you so much!
Thinking of you and your family. You are always enough. I am keeping myself busy with your drawing course, which I am enjoying more than I expected since I love painting more than drawing. Thank you for the fun course. Looking forward to the botanical course, which will allow me to practice my improved drawing skills 😊.
I am so glad you are enjoying the drawing course!
Thank you for my Saturday morning routine and everything you share. You are lovely in any lighting! Prayers for your dad and your family.
Thank you for your kind words and prayers!
DIY Oil sticks sound like a lot of fun to make. Best wishes to your Dad.
Keeping prayers for your dad and family and you. You always inspire my creative side. Thanks
Thank you so much, your kind words mean a lot.
We all have wrinkles ...or will have...What a good idea to use parchment squares to make tubes!! So sorry your dad is not doing well.
Thank you so much for the kind words, I appreciate it.
I missed you last the weekend, life seems to busy these days. Don't worry about us Lindsay, you have a lot on your plate these days... we do appreciate all that you do. Take care of yourself. Thanks . 🥰
I appreciate you saying that, you're very kind! I did post lat weekend tho:) I've kept up with my channel because I have stuff prerecorded.
Sending love and light to you, Lindsay.
Hey Lindsay, I haven’t even watched full sat chat yet but I had to come here and say this, just breath.! Long inhales, extra long exhales… inktober and challenges can wait and classes too. We’re here whenever the class comes out, we’ll always be here. Just don’t worry.. you seem stressed, just care for yourself, family and parents. God bless you. Take care ❤😊
Thank you so much, you are so kind!
Oh Lindsay, you are obviously suffering and worrying about your Dad. Be kind to yourself. Thank you for taking the time to tape the sat chat for us when so much is going on for you. Prayers for your family 😘
It's a tough time but I'm so glad I can still connect with you all.
Lindsay, prayers for you and your family, especially your dad ❤
That’s so kind of you, thank you.
Hugs to all of you!
Thanks 😊
Praying for all of you. ❤ Thanks for the video.
Sending prayers and love. 🙏❤️🙏
Wishing the best for you and family! Remember to take care of yourself and don’t beat yourself up for not doing it all. And kudos for not doing Inktober, sometimes we get so frazzled by all the “I shoulds”, and it’s not worth it. I’ve had a rough month too and just went back to my fun art projects to relax and let myself play in response. It helps! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks, that’s great advice!
Hello, Lindsay. Thank you so much.
I'm glad you liked it!
Praying for your Dad and family🙏🏻
Oooh Lindsay I want the line and wash!!! Oooh I can't wait! The florals are absolutely stunning and I love the colors!
I’m so glad you like the florals!
Boy we must be on the same wavelength this week. I pull out supplies for an idea I have and stack it on top of yesterday’s supplies. And then I decided to really purge my cabinets as I have too much stuff. So my book room is all pulled apart and it just makes me tired to look at. I’ve gifted a lot to a school teacher friend, but there’s a lot left. Ugghhh. I’m now more resolved to not buy anything this year. Maybe next year too! Take care.
I hope your father is doing better. My dad dislikes hospitals too. He also dislikes making a fuss, especially if he has to involve others. He’s from that generation when the fathers always solved the ppproblems and didn’t “put others out” (my mom worked equally hard). He informed me he was going to an out of state hospital for a procedure while standing at the front door with a suitcase in one hand and the doorknob to the opened door in the other! I was flabbergasted! It took a while, but I finally got him to be more forthcoming. He’ll even ask for help - after exhausting every other option. 😆 Lindsey, please focus on your family and yourself. We absolutely understand if you don’t respond to comments, because - priorities. We’ll be here. We can do a “Second chance Inktober” in spring or whenever.
Sending prayers and hugs for your family, especially your dad and mom. Can't wait for the Line & Wash Botanicals! Did you take chemistry? If so, I'll bet you were a handful. I love all the Lindsays; please take good care of them! 😘
No, I never did.
Sorry to hear about your dads return to the hospital. I sure hope he improves quickly. About the Inktober thing, I was very disappointed in the prompts and didn't even draw the backpack. Next year, make up your own, and we can call it Lyntober! ❤
I can tell you're not doing well with your Dad's current health condition and I understand. I decided to do the zentangle prompts for Inktober this year, trying to learn the basic patterns. I am also doing Bloomtober, learning about poisonous plants and practicing my botanical drawings from reference photos. So I was excited to hear of your line and pen botanicals coming after the holidays. I will definitely want to make those cards. I wonder if you'll ever move away from Maine, you're going into another winter that seems to be coming faster every year. I, of course just went through 2 hurricanes in 2 weeks, but its not really the same. My summers are getting hotter and I don't know where else I'd want to live. My family is scattered across the country and my parents have passed. Also looking forward to the Michael's class. Hope your Dad gets out of the hospital soon, have a better week.
There are so many plusses to living in Maine, winter is really the only negative.
I’m sorry to hear that your Dad is back in the hospital. Sending love and healing thoughts for his speedy recovery
"My life's a mess and it's manifesting on my hair!" 😂😂 that is so classic and so relatable. I'm having the exact same problem and my hair is just not cooperating with me either. But on a serious note, sending love and prayers and may your dad get better soon. ❤
Thank you for your kind words!
I hope your father recovers fast. At least we have a beautiful view when we have to drive far in Maine. So much yellow Ochre out!! LOL 🤩Sending you many prayers and happy wishes.. 🙏🙏
Thanks for the kind wishes! Maine is definitely beautiful.
I have everything bought to make your journal, all I need is a kick up the butt
Sending good wishes for your dad's recovery. Your idea for a live class sounds really exciting. Local people are lucky tonbe able to acces it!
So sorry to hear about your dad, we will keep you and your family in our prayers. I hope you have a great weekend.
Hey Lindsay! Don't worry about your lighting, you look fantastic. My best wishes for your dad, hope he recovers soon. Have a good weekend!
Thank you so much!!
I liked the lighting you had before. The colors were so much better and you were more colorful! Love your videos.
I'm glad you liked the colors!
You are the busiest person I know. Yes, it can be really disruptive to have a person you are supporting in the hospital. These days it seems that many local hospitals have closed and you have to drive a far distance. Love and prayers to you.
My parents live an hour away so the hospital is closer to them but in the opposite direction than me.
Hugs, Lindsay.
Hi Lindsay, Sorry to hear about your dad. Sending really good healing thoughts and prayers his way. I don't know if you've seen it or not, but Jerry's is now selling water soluble oil paint sticks. If I remember correctly, they are SoHo Urban Artist.
Thanks for thinking of my dad! I've seen the sticks and plan to review them!
It's finally down to 63 in the morning here in the Phoenix AZ valley! What a relief!!!
You’re a hard worker. I’m sorry your dad is feeling so poorly. It is worrisome and stressful. You love him so. I hope you get some solid sleep and rest this weekend.
Thanks 😊
And btw your hair is always lovely. Please don't think any of us get on here and think "ugh look at her hair today, how dare her get on here with that hair!". Never have thought that and doubt anyone else has. You always show up beautiful. My prayers and healing thoughts are with your dad.❤
It is cold in Minnesota too, and foggy, and damp. It is going to to be a cold wet winter according to my Mom so get ready.
I hope all is well with your Dad. It is good that they caught the pneumonia early. Travel safely.
Thank you so much for your kind words, I appreciate it!
🤣your hair is absolutely beautiful, I kept thinking how healthy it looks.
Thanks 😊
Prayers for your dad and family. I hope he recovers soon. I've been sick with Covid for over a week now and every day is a different adventure, but I think I'm getting over it pretty well. At least I'm hoping so. Just no energy. But you make sure to take care of yourself in the midst of everything going on there. Your floral paintings are beautiful. That was fun to hear your process for making the sticks, too. Thanks so much for the Sat Chat. You're always wonderful. 😊
Thanks so much, I hope you feel better soon!
@@thefrugalcrafter Thank you.
Sending love and hoping for speedy recovery for dad.
Don't beat yourself up over inktober. Now (perhaps more than ever) you need to put YOU first. Take care of yourself! ❤
Thanks 😊
sending best wishes for your dad, i will say a prayer for him, and healing mercies. 🙏
I would ❤ the line and wash class
