I didn’t think you were very excited last video over the new doll, but she is beautiful to me. I am so glad to hear you say you are excited over her. That was so sweet of Jody getting her for you. He is so good to you. I sure hate you are feeling so badly.❤
Lama moma Kalma it’s a great day to praise the Lord ! I have multiple sclerosis and diabetes and edema in my left leg . But,when you said it’s a beautiful bay to crochet all ways makes me smile. You and big daddy are in my prayers ❤❤
Prayers for you. I'm in bed with really high blood pressure. It's OK in bed. But when I go to another room and lie back down it's crazy high. I'm sorry you are ill. Hang in there. The Lord has you ! ❤❤
I really love the Grandchildren, they are so cute. I can't wait to see the outfits. Love hearing about your childhood memories with Angela, they crack me up. I love hearing them. I am crocheting a pony leg. I work on all the pieces and then at the end put them together.
I went to my quilting club today, and worked on my quilt. I will post a picture on the fb page when I get it finished. I am close now. I named it Autumn Reverie, and I started writing the story of my journey from starting it 25 years ago to finishing it this year! It's a quarter century project!!! I am going to work on the quilt tomorrow. I have one more corner to embroider, then I will start on the binding. So close!
I have been crocheting, cooking dinner, and cleaning as much as possible. Surgery recovery has been slow but steady and I am "trying" not to over do it. Praying for you and Jody.
Tomorrow is my birthday, I will be 71. God gives good gifts to his children, I ask him to give you peace and relief from pain, a time of resting that is my birthday wish God bless you
So happy you are able to chat with us. I needed you today. I was yelled at by a so called friend ( actually a friend’s husband) last night and still am feeling just as abused as I was by my first husband. Your picture today, the little girl has full lips like Sadie. We stay home with the garden hose each 4th of July, always have. Younger days we would block off the cul-de-sac and have a real block party 🎉
Hi Kayla you enjoy your dolls everyone needs something to take our mind of Chronic pain and your dolls are beautiful ❤ I'm knitting while i watching you sometimes im crocheting or cross stitch i try anything i enjoy to take my mind of hard days and you and big daddy cheer me up xx
My WIP Wednesday was spent in bed sick. I slept most of Wednesday. Today, Thursday and I trying to stay awake and get stuff done despite how I am feeling. Sinus infections are no fun at all! I am crocheting on the Americana blanket for my mom while I catch up on my videos. Have a happy and blessed 4th. Love from Southern California ❤🤍💙
Love visiting with you. I've been sewing my red dress. I hand sew my clothes so I can still work in bed. I have started a jelly roll quilt so I can practice sewing in a straight line! Know what you mean about feeling under the weather. You don't know what to do with yourself. I just give myself 1 thing to do per day and then I feel I have accomplished something. Rest up and enjoy 4th of July.
You are blessed with your Jody, so thoughtful and always making you happy. Sadie is adorable, as well as the others. We went to my daughter and son in laws for a crab boil, it was delicious! I’m not good at cracking the shells, but got it done , without starving, lol then went home and later listened to all the fireworks around the neighborhood. Sounded like a war out there! Have a wonderful evening! ❤🤗🎉🇺🇸🎉🇺🇸🙏🙏
I haven't Crocheted in over a month. I want to start something soon. A vest or a shawl. Have yarn for a blanket or two. I'm working the 4th. It a fun job only 7 hours broke into 2 shifts. 3 in the morning and 4 in mud afternoon. Fix supper. So enjoy watching you do anything. You keep me company. .. Jean. R.
Hi Kayla, when I'm feeling rough I don't like to be in bed, I get up and pretend everything is OK. I think if I pretend everything is OK then it is lol. I love Sadie, she is so cute I hope you feel better soon
So many colors!!! Beautiful!!! Working on crochet earrings for a local store for WIP Wednesday! Normally I sit on the front porch, but it was too hot and humid to do that today, urgh! Your girl looks so patriotic! Love you Mama!
I'm one that thinks dolls are creepy. I loved stuffed animals as a kid. However, I like that they help take your mind off pain. I think everyone should have a hobby to help take their mind off things. No matter what you like I support it. I don't care if I like it or not. I might not watch the dolls but I'll play it while I go and do other things.
Dolls seemed like they were staring at me as a child. They creeped me out. I hated Barbies too. I wouldn't mind one of those dolls that look and feel like a real newborn now. But I can't spend that kind of money. I never had kids. That's probably why. But some of her dolls are gorgeous. Both really long haired dolls are beautiful.
You explained brilliantly what it's like on a rough day & the games we play to try to trick our bodies into co-operating!! Thanks for your honestly! It helps me to know that others understand.... though I'm really sorry that you go through so much each day, Kayla! 🥰Sending hugs, prayers & blessings from South Australia💕🐨PS. Hubby & I often pray for you, Kayla.
Hi kayla I enjoyed watching the video today, I love hearing about the beautiful dolls and look forward to seeing pictures of them. Take care and I hope you are feeling better really soon 😊
You're so right about Big Daddy's support and devotion to you. Give yourself a pat on the back for reciprocating! Like you, I have to decide if I'm up to pushing through a bad day and taking a chance of paying for it afterward. It's always a crap shoot!! Keeping you two in my prayers. ❤❤
This morning I had dental surgery that ended up being longer and more complicated/ painful than I planned on. Now I'm watching you and trying not to cry because my jaw/ mouth hurts so bad😢 tomorrow is the 4th, we're having a family BBQ & I'm praying there's something I can eat & that I'm not miserable the whole time:/ Hubby has been sweet, he's a lot like Jody, we're both blessed to have our guys❤
Just chillin after working on my vegetable garden. Got some zucchini, cucumbers and marigolds planted. I've heard that marigolds are a natural insect deterrent.
I am watching you on the 4th. We went over to our younger daughter’s home for a cookout. We brought fixins to make homemade ice cream. Guess what---the motor on the ice cream maker finally gave out……😫😥. After 30 years of service, it retired! But the mixture became like a runny shake, so people still ate it! It didn’t ruin our day--it was still good to be with family. Hope you have had a restful day, Kayla. ❤️🤍💙 Brenda
I am working on a crochet blanket for my granddaughter. Went to grocery store. Came by bank at 530 pm & it said 99 degrees out! So muggy here. Hope you feel better real soon. Your new doll is so cute! Jodi is so thoughtful!❤❤ Love watching you color & chat!😊
I love your videos and are my favorite to watch and listen to!! You keep me company during my long days. Thank Kayla!! I'm still working on the blanket I'm crocheting for my sister. We're staying home for the 4th of July too as far as I know. ❤️🙏🙏
Auto immune sucks for sure, I take my meds for UC, then it reduces my immune system and I get shingles.... such a bad cycle....I feel ya!... push through another day, that's all we can do... HUgs~ Lea
I'm sorry you're feeling so lousy. I have Sjogren's (I believe that's one of your many autoimmune disorders.) My eyes have been blurry lately, and it's aggravating. I need to be consistent with using my eye drops. I love dolls too, but my daughter always found them creepy. One of my granddaughters loves dolls, so that's been fun. My daughter and grandchildren were over today making things out of clay. What a mess! Then we took the 10-year-old to her art class. They are working on art journals, and she is loving it! I think tomorrow will be a quiet day for us! ❤🇺🇸
Hi kayla, hope you feel better soon!. Sadie is a beautiful doll for your collection. So sweet of big daddy to buy you her as a surprise!. He is a good man!. 👍 I like the picture that you are colouring kayla and the positive quotes!. Are you giving her yellow hair or wellies?. Enjoy your colouring!. See you in your next video. Mandy uk 🇬🇧 xxx😊
When I have those days I try to do stuff and if I feel super low energy I stop. I hear ya, Kayla, its super hard to know! Yesterday, I did things I had to then sat but today I pushed through and thankfully the funk seems to have passed. Its so weird, I go for months feeling "normal" then, Boom!, back to crap again. It cycles and its so frustrating! It's like I'm feeling really well but in the back of my mind I wonder how long it will last. I anticipate what's coming and I hate it. I don't want to think like that but its my reality and it stinks on ice. I am crocheting a Gabby doll, from a children's show my grand likes, for her birthday.
Hi Kayla, I am working on a small cowl with premier hipster yarn, a 3 weight yarn, very pretty. I think I might use it as a headscarf, the kind the Polish used to call a babuska?! Works for me! 😂 I can relate to your pain, too, I manage my migraines pretty well with medicine, but now my lower back is acting up, and I have so much I want to do, but I have to sit or lay down. 😤 I am happy that most nights I can sleep without pain anyway. I know the emotional part of the pain management can get tricky, too. I might go back to journaling and my meditation tapes. (Yes, I’m that old, I have cassette tapes and even records.) Music soothes the savage beast. I love mo-town music. And it would be fun to color with my almost 2 year old granddaughter. I’m sure coloring with Alana won’t be anywhere near as peaceful as your session is, but at least I won’t be thinking about pain! Your husband is wonderful to you, so sweet and loving. You enjoy your dolls, and Happy 4th of July. Stay safe, stay cool! compared to your 99 degrees, I can say that it will “only” be 88 degrees up here in MI tomorrow. 🥵
I had my yearly Dr appt this morning. It wasn't bad except for traffic - everybody else apparently are going somewhere else for the holiday! Not me, I was glad to get back home in one piece. Then I stopped & got groceries. I started some new physical therapy yesterday for my left hand, they think it's just arthritis but it sure is a pain. I have problems grasping and closing my fingers. And it sure doesn't help my crocheting. I know you understand that! I keep hoping that it doesn't get worse. Glad to see you're happy with your new plastic grandchild!!! At least you have a quiet one!!!
Hugs, sorry you are having a hard time. The chronic illnesses are so hard to get it right. I so get what you say. Every time I insist on pushing through, (against my better judgement from past experiences) I lose a day or two to sleep because of the stress I caused my body. So in the end I am worse off then if I had just been patient and stopped when I was ahead.. Yeah those bad vision days are so annoying. What I have found by chance has helped keep them to be less often has been drinking some sort of Japanese tea with matcha added. It is processed different than Chinese green tea. For some reason it helps my vision, and it is just a small cup once a day.
I can stay in when it is too hot or cold!! I worked on my Diamond art coasters earlier today and after supper I worked on my Debbie Muller color book. Praying for you to get better quickly!! Happy Fourth of July to you and Big Daddy!!
I am having big eye dramas this week too, ontop of my usual eyesight issues.🤓 Optometrist appoint this am and I have a severe posterial vitreous detachment and I have to take it easy as I have an increased risk of a retinal tear or retinal detachment in the next few weeks.( Not that I can ever do much with my chronic conditions). Need to have regular check up now so we make sure we catch any more issues quickly. Like u lovely Mama Kayla, I personally just do not need anymore issues but of cause we always get something piled ontop of our load.🥴 It is said that God only gives us what we can handle but I really do struggle to handle my load. I always try to think, I could have something worse but God is protecting me from that. 💗🙏 Love and prayers 💗💗💗🙏🙏🙏
Its about the intent I think, when pushing forward. If you do it the wrong way your body will rebel. Ive learnt we must lead the way with the brain, you have to lead it to safety and to good, positive things. It doesnt work the other way around unfortunately, if we give in and baby the symptoms they can become permanent as our lives shrink around them. We must instead forge ahead, forging new neural pathways. Doing the opposite of what we feel. Slowly, over time things start to ease up. Never push, do things with love and compassion for yourself, keep doing things you love and spark joy. Theres a whole world of fascinating stuff to learn about pain and how we feel! Bottom line is 'fake it until you make it!'. Sending hugs.
Hi Kayla, I'm working on a new lovey design. Trying to figure out what to do with all my cozy toes sock yarn. Idk. I may sell it. Fighting TMJ today 😢. Much love and take care❤
Hi,I hope you feel better soon🌸. Do you like coloring grayscale books?Ive never tried it but I guess it’s cool and different from traditional black and white line art.
Hi Kayla I’m crocheting a rainbow blanket for a little boys birthday! I hope he likes it! I’m almost done. Then I am crocheting a baby blanket for my nurses baby not sure what colors to use because I don’t know the gender of the baby a parents don’t want to know what the gender it is! Don’t know what color to start with! Can you help me out with this please.
Hi Kayla and Jody I am so happy to see the love you have for each other. Your grandchildren are so much fun to hear their stories.. I do enjoy your different projects that you have going. PLASTIC GRANDCHILDREN. Lol so funny and interesting voices. Till the next vedio lots of love and hugs to you both
Spring green, light yellow, and white look nice together. Variegated blue and pink and white are also nice. So thoughtful of you to make blankets for others. 😍
sometimes i try to push through and sometimes i just lay around.SADIE IS BEAUTIFUL ALL OF YOUR BABIES ARE SO PRETTY. IM COLORING AND LISTENING TO YOU. WHEN I WAS LITTLE I HAD SO MANY BEAUTIFUL DOLLLS.I WOULD LINEBTHEM ALL UP IN MY ROOM AND I NAMED EVERYONE.I WAS A ONLY CHILD SO I TALKED TO THEM AND TOOK SUCH GOOD CARE OF THEM. NO PLANS FOR TOMORROW ITS TOO HOT. LOVE YOU HOPE YOU START FEELING BETTER.
I don't understand why docs can't get your pain under control. There are so many drugs out there that must be effective and help people feel good since there are so many addicts. It's too bad pain doesn't have a specific test to measure it and help docs understand what level of pain a person has in order to alleviate it. I'm sure if they had the same level of pain themselves, they would take care of it right away. I'm so sorry you are suffering like this and pray for relief. 🙏💖
Jody is a very thoughtful, loving man.
I didn’t think you were very excited last video over the new doll, but she is beautiful to me. I am so glad to hear you say you are excited over her. That was so sweet of Jody getting her for you. He is so good to you. I sure hate you are feeling so badly.❤
You are a sweet blessing to the TH-cam streets and you encourage me daily. Thank you for that..
Lama moma Kalma it’s a great day to praise the Lord ! I have multiple sclerosis and diabetes and edema in my left leg . But,when you said it’s a beautiful bay to crochet all ways makes me smile. You and big daddy are in my prayers ❤❤
Prayers for you. I'm in bed with really high blood pressure. It's OK in bed. But when I go to another room and lie back down it's crazy high. I'm sorry you are ill. Hang in there. The Lord has you ! ❤❤
Thank you !
Today I slept in. Now I am doing simple for food and working in crocheting. I have a migraine. When my OH flares up I have to slow down for safety.
I bought some Kalour pencils thought I bought 72 but ended up with 180. I have more colors than I know what to do with.
Crocheting blankets to donate. Thanks for everything you share.
I really love the Grandchildren, they are so cute. I can't wait to see the outfits. Love hearing about your childhood memories with Angela, they crack me up. I love hearing them. I am crocheting a pony leg. I work on all the pieces and then at the end put them together.

I have been crocheting, cooking dinner, and cleaning as much as possible. Surgery recovery has been slow but steady and I am "trying" not to over do it. Praying for you and Jody.
Whatever floats your boat, then I say keep paddling. We are all unique, so you don't have to like what everyone else does.
Tomorrow is my birthday, I will be 71. God gives good gifts to his children, I ask him to give you peace and relief from pain, a time of resting that is my birthday wish God bless you
Happy Birthday blessings!
Happy birthday !!❤😊God bless you. I hope it is a wonderful birthday 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🍧🍰🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎀🎀🎀🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Kayla sorry you haven't felt great. Hope your pain will lessen and you start feeling better soon.❤😊
Hi Kayla. Sorry to hear you weren't feeling well. Hope you start feeling better soon.
Feel better🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💕🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️ Feel better!
very beautiful like you You always let your light shine
You're so right about Big Daddy's support and devotion to you. Give yourself a pat on the back for reciprocating!
Like you, I have to decide if I'm up to pushing through a bad day and taking a chance of paying for it afterward. It's always a crap shoot!!
Keeping you two in my prayers. ❤❤
This morning I had dental surgery that ended up being longer and more complicated/ painful than I planned on.

Happy coloring! Prayers that you feel better. 🙏
I love Cabbage Patch Kid dolls. I'm way into them. I love Care Bears too!!
I have a pencil holder exactly like the one you have!! Daisies are my favorite flower!!
Just chillin after working on my vegetable garden. Got some zucchini, cucumbers and marigolds planted. I've heard that marigolds are a natural insect deterrent.
So happy you like your new doll from big Daddy ❤
I am watching you on the 4th. We went over to our younger daughter’s home for a cookout. We brought fixins to make homemade ice cream. Guess what---the motor on the ice cream maker finally gave out……😫😥. After 30 years of service, it retired! But the mixture became like a runny shake, so people still ate it! It didn’t ruin our day--it was still good to be with family.
Hope you have had a restful day, Kayla.
❤️🤍💙
Brenda
Cute coloring book. Hope your feeling better soon❤❤
When my pain flares for more than a few days, I just give in to it, relax and only do the things I need to do.
Thanks for your share! I tend to do the opposite and push through to do more to prove I can do more!
Forgot to mention I am crocheting an Afghan for my little granddaughter
Working on making glue books
I am working on a crochet blanket for my granddaughter. Went to grocery store. Came by bank at 530 pm & it said 99 degrees out! So muggy here. Hope you feel better real soon. Your new doll is so cute! Jodi is so thoughtful!❤❤ Love watching you color & chat!😊
Just stay cool, stay indoors and work on your FAIR projects. Question: does PHOEBE like or dislike the heat?😊😊
I went out to the mailbox a few hours ago. It’s oppressive out there.
I love your videos and are my favorite to watch and listen to!! You keep me company during my long days. Thank Kayla!!
I'm still working on the blanket I'm crocheting for my sister.
We're staying home for the 4th of July too as far as I know.
❤️🙏🙏

Auto immune sucks for sure, I take my meds for UC, then it reduces my immune system and I get shingles.... such a bad cycle....I feel ya!... push through another day, that's all we can do... HUgs~ Lea
Hi Hun, I hope you had a happy and blessed 4th of July..... We had a blessed day ourselves. I love the picture you are coloring it is so beautiful.
I'm sorry you're feeling so lousy. I have Sjogren's (I believe that's one of your many autoimmune disorders.) My eyes have been blurry lately, and it's aggravating. I need to be consistent with using my eye drops. I love dolls too, but my daughter always found them creepy. One of my granddaughters loves dolls, so that's been fun.

I got mice in the kitchen but think we caught them so I have to super clean the cabinets...ugh. Doing laundry and now working on a Halloween blanket.

I’m working on an amigurumi bunny for wip Wednesday. Your grandchildren are so cute❤
❤❤ wow so wonderful
Hi Kayla, I am working on a small cowl with premier hipster yarn, a 3 weight yarn, very pretty. I think I might use it as a headscarf, the kind the Polish used to call a babuska?!

Hey there Kayla and Big daddy good afternoon ❤❤😊😊
Please try and take care, your body is trying to recover from that last lot of treatment. Be kind to yourself ❤❤ much love❤❤
Yay I am glad you came on 😊

Its about the intent I think, when pushing forward. If you do it the wrong way your body will rebel. Ive learnt we must lead the way with the brain, you have to lead it to safety and to good, positive things. It doesnt work the other way around unfortunately, if we give in and baby the symptoms they can become permanent as our lives shrink around them. We must instead forge ahead, forging new neural pathways. Doing the opposite of what we feel. Slowly, over time things start to ease up. Never push, do things with love and compassion for yourself, keep doing things you love and spark joy. Theres a whole world of fascinating stuff to learn about pain and how we feel! Bottom line is 'fake it until you make it!'. Sending hugs.
Happy 4th of July ❤sending hugs 🫂 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Then I am crocheting a baby blanket for my nurses baby not sure what colors to use because I don’t know the gender of the baby a parents don’t want to know what the gender it is! Don’t know what color to start with! Can you help me out with this please.

PLASTIC GRANDCHILDREN. Lol so funny and interesting voices. Till the next vedio lots of love and hugs to you both
Spring green, light yellow, and white look nice together. Variegated blue and pink and white are also nice. So thoughtful of you to make blankets for others. 😍

I don't understand why docs can't get your pain under control. There are so many drugs out there that must be effective and help people feel good since there are so many addicts. It's too bad pain doesn't have a specific test to measure it and help docs understand what level of pain a person has in order to alleviate it. I'm sure if they had the same level of pain themselves, they would take care of it right away. I'm so sorry you are suffering like this and pray for relief. 🙏💖
