I never noticed a problem with your videos. I think you do very well ❤

[@noraventresca3921]

Pat, I don’t think you should concern yourself with where you’re looking. I always feel like you’re looking at us.

Hello Granny Pat , U are an amazing storyteller. I always go to u tube to see if you're on. I disagree with whoever told u about where you're looking. To me, it seems like you are looking at us. Thank u again for all the stories. i love them, Robert, from Wisconsin

Hello Dear Pat! Happy Groundhog Day. I love this day. It means we are getting closer to Spring and I always love to see the Groundhog. Ours in Pennsylvania is Punxatawny Phil. What an experience you had 31 years ago. Im so glad that your surgery was a success and you are here for us all these years later. I love your outfit. I love that watch necklace and all your jewelry. You are so classy. I gotta keep in touch. I've been so busy lately. Your hair is gorgeous, very becoming. Love you Dearly. Have a great Groundhog Day. Shirley from Hanover PA

Granny Pat, I absolutely adore you!! You remind me so much of my beloved Granny. Remember that jealousy is the root of all toxicity ~ so rude commenters are showing their roots. Love you💖💝💖

Granny Pat, I agree with you on TV. We watch reruns of our favorite shows, mainly crime shows. And by the way, when I watch you, you appear to be looking right at me. Keep up your shows, a bright spot in my day.

[@trishb45]

Dear Pat- my mom always served meatloaf w/ baked beans and baked potatoes. One day when she was in her70’s, she asked me (me!!) to make my meatloaf for her as she loved mine and hated her own! So did we! We laughed. Now that’s a memory no one cares about but me. I love watching you and even more now that my mom is gone. How I love your pink lamp! Thank you for sharing you with me. You are needed, Pat! 💕Trish.

Good grief people will find fault with the silliest things. Pay no mind. You do you, Granny Pat. I like everything about your videos just the way they are. Home Goods is a great place to slip on in to. There's nothing wrong with that, either. It's much better than a trip to the emergency room anyday.

Very similar gall bladder story for me too. I don’t go to doctors, ER or hospital unless I’m at death’s door but glad I did then and got that out. The first thing I wanted after surgery was…yup, pizza 😂. You do a great job with your videos and I always feel like we’re right there with you chatting. It’s ten below zero here in upstate New York and no warm up in sight so I’ll be watching that old groundhog. Love your blouse❤

[@jeanpatterson125]

Enjoyed your show tonight Pat James was watching the program Bluegrass music and so I just watched you privately on my iPad as he watched Dailey and Vincent music. I have earphones that I can connect to my iPad and I can listen privately and hear the music too. Keep up the good work girl you’re doing good. What kind of camera are you using now? I just use my iPad. I don’t think I’ll ever get a camera. I’m too used to looking at myself. Make sure my hair is straight lol. Good night sleep tight. Don’t let the bedbugs bite. That’s what we used to say when we were kids.

Pat, you mentioned you don’t watch TV anymore and I know how you feel about that. So this is why I’m sending you a message. I have found something on KZbin you might enjoy, at least for a while. It doesn’t sound very interesting but I have found it keeps my interest for something to enjoy occasionally. It’s a woman named Cheere Denise who is reading chapters of a book titled “The Other Mrs. Kennedy”. Yes, it’s about Ethel Kennedy. I know it doesn’t sound very entertaining but it is. Give it a try. What have you got to lose?.. Oh, and I enjoy you and your channel very much and your stories 😊.

Maybe when you watch your very early videos again, it will spark a memory for another story. 😊 Also, maybe looking at the calendar date will spark a memory of something that happened on that day in the years past. Granny Pat, l think your friends here, including me, are happy to be *patient* for another video just whenever you want to post something you want to share. People shouldn't expect you to do more than that. Hugs!

You go on sharing with us about ground hog day and your beautiful watch necklace. Gosh that necklace watch and chain is gorgeous,and it's the perfect length on you.

Oh my goodness-we have such similar gallbladder attack stories…!!!!! I think it was in 2005, I was about 50 years old when totally out of the blue one morning at work, I got so sick. For the last 14 years of my career before retirement, I worked in at a very large hospital, so I was already at the hospital-LOL. I was the executive assistant to one of the senior administrators, who is also a registered nurse. I had gone in her office with my waste basket in my hand, to lie down on her sofa-it was early, so she hadn’t arrived yet. When she arrived, the second she saw me and looked in the trash can, she said, “I’d bet a million dollars you are having a gallbladder attack!!!”. She put me in a wheelchair and took me downstairs to the ER. After getting a shot for the nausea to get the dry heaves under control, getting some IV fluids, and undergoing a few tests, my boss was absolutely right-two weeks later, I had gallbladder surgery…!!!

Hi Granny Pat….first, don’t listen to whoever said you’re not looking at us. I have never felt that way, and many of your viewers agree, cause I’ve read a lot of the comments. About your gallbladder….My gallbladder story started the night I brought my 2nd son home from the hospital from giving birth. I put up with those attacks for 9 months, cause I was like you, not going to the doctor, not going to the hospital, I’ll be ok later or tomorrow. I went from weighing 145 to 85 pounds. Finally, I agreed to the ER when I was having an attack. I didn’t have gallstones, my gallbladder was bad, and because I waited so long, it might affect my spleen they said. They couldn’t do my surgery right away because a count was too high in my blood. That was back in 1987. I love listening to your stories and seeing all of the things you want us to see. Hope you’re having a good day.
