Oh wow!!! I just found your channel. Today I am grateful for you! In the last 4 months I have a lost 2 aunts, my 42 year old nephew, and my mother. My mother lived with me the last 2 years and I was her primary caregiver. I am 63, will be 64 by the end of the year. You are speaking to my heart right now. Thank you!

I am SO sorry for your loss... I can still feel the loss of my mother, you will never get over that. I'm sending you a BIG HUG right now, I hope you can feel it. And loosing aunts and a young nephew on top of that, so heartbreaking. Please stay with me here and I hope when you feel up to it you will try something creative, it really does help to keep moving. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I am 68. Love listening to your ideas. Wish you were my neighbor! I am no longer in the work place but I believe there is discrimination against older people that are working. I struggled with all the technology that kept changing. I discovered slow stitching a couple years ago and absolutely love it! I enjoy making things for other people. I knit hats etc for charity. It is what gets me up every day. If you did a video every day I would love it. Thanks for all you do.❤

LOL, I wish I had a neighbor like any one of you! And technology, don't get me started! Seems like every day I go to do something, I see the platform has changed, it's so frustrating! My mom made hats for the homeless! PS if I did a video every day it would kill me! LOLOLOL But thank you for wanting to be with me each day! 💜 Take a gander at some of my older videos, you will see how I've morphed over the years.

I have been sewing the funky patches shown on the video .Last week was the first time I came across your channel and was so excited to have a new project to follow. At 82 I have been thinking that last year was the last I made handmade Christmas gift for the family (about 25). Most of these were craft , such as bbq apron, pillowslips, scrunchies headbands cosmetic purses. The list goes on. So seeing you make those funky square rectangle patches gave me a new lease on life. So far I have tried to make 2 a day. However that reduced to 1 some days. It doesnt matter! The enjoyment and creativety that these little squares give me is all down to you. Thankyou you special angel of art.

Oh goodness I can sure relate. When I was 54 (I’m 60 now) I decided to get married to my fiancé of 15 years, quit my job and go back to school to study physical therapy. Well, during that time we got a direct hit by a cat 5 hurricane, then trying to dig out from that Covid hit. I struggled to finish school via zoom and survived the hellish clinical trainings only to be told I needed to be faster. I managed to pass the licensure but in the end I just ran out of steam. Not sure if it was me changing but the world seemed so weird post Covid! (And still is in my opinion). So now I’m a stay at home person who loves to garden and do crafting. I am fortunate to have a loving and supportive husband. Not sure what the future holds I’m just taking things one day at a time. But I look forward to each day and have a vague idea of what I’d like to be doing in the future. You’re videos are wonderful. I’m really happy I found your channel. 😊

Hi Jeri. I just came back to watching YT after several months away. At first I just needed a break and then my father passed away on Feb 1. Then my pet, a parrot, died at the end of March. So lots going on. I am 65 and COVID did me in. It took me a few years to get out of the funk and in October of 2023 I started back to church and it made all the difference. I do a fairly good job at keeping busy, and sometimes I like to just sit and read. Thanks for this video! ❤️

Oui, Arthritis that hurts.... my friend has that pretty bad and she started out slowly but started walking and little by little she noticed some improvement. Is it hard to feed yourself because of the pain or do you just hate to cook? I am not overly fond of cooking but I do like to eat so I do it. I'll share some of my weirdo recipes.

Ive made some machine sewn quilts and a few hangings. It was really hard! I also have autoimmune diseases and was terribly ill with one of them a few years ago. I get terribly fatigued. Making those dots will be great on days where i dont feel able to do anything! Thank you for your videos.

I ran across your video about dots, and then wow. . . I love the slow stitching project, which fit perfectly with using my mom’s old yo-yos but I was drawn to your openness and honesty. I’m a 52 year old . . . ____(?), wife, mother to four girls, and lawyer. My biggest challenge is not feeling like it’s worth having goals. I thought of switching careers to find more meaning. I almost went to nursing school 2 years ago, but worried whether cognitively and physically I could do the program and now I’m wondering if it’s worth becoming a teacher. Right now I don’t want to get older 😢 because it feels like there was so much I wanted to do. Again, thank you for being here.

Uh, Melanie, I feel your pain. Compared to me you are still pretty young! My hubs, Brian, you'll hear me talk about him, is 12 years younger than me. He's always saying he's too old and I have to laugh at him. But I was in a funk for many years and felt it was too late to start anything new. Don't let that influence what you do now. You could live to 90 and that's 40 more YEARS! Just think of what you could do with 40 years!! Please press on and try new things and so what if you drop dead in the middle of that, at least you were living your life to the fullest! Sending you HUGE HUGS right this minute! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Wow, I think you just sang to my heart. I have been going through "something"...I turn 60 this December. I have accomplished so much in my life, and although I am proud of that I do have something that weighs on my heart. My "self-image", my body, and what that looks like as I age. I have had 2 significant injuries and people tell me all the time they would never know I am so down on myself for letting myself go! I have gained weight and I just feel horrible in my skin because of that. That said, I am now on a journey and I hope "this" time I can do this. It is a lot to go into but I would love to hear your view on this, if you can relate?

But I stayed here because you are so nice to all of us, always sharing your feelings and experiences in life. The last years had been really hard for me, both physically and emotionally, and crafting has saved me from drowning into that situation.

I'm 67, a widow, mother of two, grandmother of two amazing grandchildren and caregiver for my homebound sister. During COVID I put on extra pounds that I cannot shed which makes me feel horrible physically and emotionally. A few health issues too, though I am extremely blessed. But enough self-pity!

This resonates with me. I care for my parents who are nearly 90, I care for my grandchildren, and I am 60 and starting to get health problems. I do not feel worthless yet, but my father does and it depresses him. I love caring for my grandchildren but I am glad it is for just a day in the week, because it is so tiring. My mum has dementia and it is so scary and sad. So I subscribed.

Lots to say about all this... I'm making notes to address some things in other videos. I was a caretaker most of my life. When my mom passed I said, I'm done. I advocated for the elderly for YEARS too. But your dad... He needs a purpose. Do you have a box of photos somewhere? We mostly all do, get them out, get some photo albums, and ask him to do you a big favor and put them in the albums. They don't have to be in order, just have him get them in albums. He'll enjoy looking at them and he'll have a purpose. If this doesnt' resonate with you, think of something else. Above all else take care of yourself! You are no good to anyone if you don't. Sending you hugs! 💜

Oh my, you hit so many emotional and physical points for me! The least is turning 65 last Dec. In itself was and still is mind-blowing! Also, dealing with an adult depression from a long, long-term relationship. I did not recognize it, and then living on my own was impossible. I now live in a quiet, calm home now with my son (for now) because on my own is impossible! I love learning but currently struggle with motivation (depression), I crave hand sewing, but following directions interferes with that freedom after 55+ yrs of following patterns. I do knit simple blankets for a calm mind, but I do crave more, so here I am following slow stitching (not embroidery) and the critical voice will not shut up (as in that is NOT a straight line). The thing is , I am decent at following patterns and creating good clothes to wear with minor creativity, but going rogue is what I crave, I am my worst critic! SO, yes, I am going to follow along on your journey of learning about older/elder creativity. I am ready to give up yet, but i do struggle daily,

I want to say so much to you! You are making me think, I am going to address your comments in a video(s). Meanwhile, keep moving, and get up when you don't want to. Make those knitted blankets and donate them! Helping others is a HUGE part of feeling better. As for projects, most of mine are free-form. I have to work hard to figure out how to break them down into steps so others can follow along. Don't worry about your stitches! Start a project with the intent to just PLAY, NO RULES. It is very freeing! Sending you hugs! 💜

I am also 68, and lost my husband 10 years ago. I miss him every day, sometimes so much it hurts. My particular problem with aging is that I am physically handicapped, virtually bedridden, and I desperately need to lose weight. Though I eat very little, I cannot exercise at all, and I’m really tired of doctors trying to get me to. I also run into a lot of problems when I am out in the world, due to the fact that I use an ECV. The world is really not as handicapped accessible as people think. On the other hand, I meet a lot of people who are very considerate and want to help. Depression has been a part of my life since my teens, but I have a lot to be grateful for, and I try to focus on that. Much love to you. You do beautiful work.

Thank you for sharing. I look forward to hearing your insights. 💜 I'm approaching 60 and wondering how that has happened. I've suffered burnout from caring for a mother with dementia and a son with complex autism. Having taken medication for depression, anxiety and low self esteem for most of my adult life I am now looking into the possibility that im not actually depressed but neurodivergent, my daughter has recently been diagnosed with ADHD while at university aged 21. Nevertheless, I get up every day and enjoy being creative.🙏💜

What an amazing talk from your heart. Being prematurely physically challenged and suddenly finding myself out of the workforce I'd been what seemed life forever...I suffered the worst depression, hopelessness, worthlessness and so forth. I didn't know what to do with all judgments from people either. I do have worth, I can give value and wisdom and I've made it through only by my stubborness and love for all things creative. Autoimmune challenges kept me in the house for 14 months...so I had my 5th shoulder surgery and then the very next day the hospital went into lock-down. I always loved to write, letters, poetry, anything, but my journaling days have came to a stand still and I cannot figure out why. All your fans Jeri are here for you! x's lj

Can you type? or does that motion bother your shoulder? I tore my rotator cuff last September and had to make adjustments, but so far, PT has helped and I don't seem to need surgery. YIKES, it's always something. One idea leads to another... and I have a suggestion for you. Do you want to journal again? Get out a recorder (one on your phone no doubt) and sit quietly, and speak out loud to your recorder. You would be AMAZED at how awesome it feels to get it out of your system. It's just like journaling! And you don't even have to go back and listen to it! Try it and report back! And judgments, I'm sorry to hear that. I'll address this in a video. Sending you HUGE hugs! 💜

@@JeriBellini Yes I can keyboard with my arthritis fingers, wrists and elbows. I had a revolving door into PT and knew everyone there. I do PT everyday and will for the rest of my life...just to maintain so I can keep on keeping on. 5 shoulder surgeries, but two on left due to a torn rotator cuff, same two the right but a third one because I got the 2nd surgery torn out so I have a hip replacement in my shoulder...nothing really left to attach things too. 4 back surgeries and 1 hand reconstruction...other than that I am groovy LOL Great idea ! I appreciate you very much 🙂 And my first funky square I made my body very angry at me...but the result was joyous!

@@JeriBellini Oh bless you dear. That's a lot to deal with (ED) and still look how happy you are. I try to smile through the pain of my CRPS, lupus, etc. We're tough ladies - I knew there was a reason to turn in to your first video. Sending you sunshine from NM.

I will be 74 next month and….i hear ya. 😊. Aging isn’t for sissies but finding things to be grateful for each day certainly helps. I would love to hear more about your routines. 💖💖💖

OMG Jeri, this is great, such great topics. Any one of them is fine by me, hopefully all of them. My You Tube name isn’t “Invisible” for no reason. We become old, like everyone will be eventually, and we become invisible to most people who aren’t old. It’s hard to fight back against that. Keep up the good work! ❤. And those patches??? Gorgeous!

Your YT name intrigued me right off and I figured it had some deeper meaning. Before you know it you'll be changing it to LookAtMe, or BrightStar or some such funny name! Sending hugs and Purple Hearts for April! 💜💜💜💜💜
