Thank you for being such a nice person who has it together and is willing to help a pet. I love your stitching. You always get so much more done than i do, and it is a joy to see your work.😊

[@Chrissie1609]

So pleased for you with the new job. And good to hear that your pooch's health is heading in the right direction. Fingers crossed for a less eventful and quieter December.

[@juliedyson3383]

Congratulations on the new job! I hope that you are able to get more rest than you were getting before, and being closer to home should help with that. So glad that your dog made such good improvement, and I hope she continues to improve. 3 new starts? Impressive plans for 2024.

[@mrsmiggins6435]

Good to see you and your stitchy progress Kim. That's great news regarding your new job🎉 less time/cost on travel too.😃. It's worrying when our pets are sick(if only they could talk) although saying that we do get to know what they mean most of the time lol. Yay three new starts😃🎉. I'm having two, one on my son's birthday 15th and one on Christmas day for my daughter.😃. Have a great Christmas with your family.🎄🥳. Enjoy. Looking forward to your WIP parade. Stay safe🤗🇬🇧

[@lynncordova8169]

I love how colorful your Randall Spangler piece looks. So glad you got anew job cloce to home that you like. The stress at Penske was unsustainable. I am so glad your dog is doing better. Have a blessed Cbristmas season!

[@ninahobbysite]

Congratulations with your new job. So scary, with your dog. I'm glad to hear she is better.

[@judystone3645]

Great progress! Wonderful news about your new job. No long commute, less stress. I hope your dog is fully recovered by now; it's always so scary when our animals and kiddos are ill. I like the 3 new starts for the new year. Merry Christmas to you and yours!❤

[@joannhicks1068]

Hello Kim, congratulations on your new job. I’m so glad for you ! I’m sorry your dog’s been ill. I know how it feels when you know there’s something wrong but you can’t determine what’s wrong. It’s great she’s doing better, I hope the trend continues. You’ve been running full steam ahead with your projects, despite all the troubles during November. Thanks for all the things you do.

[@connietatar7536]

So glad you chucked that job! It seemed so stressful. I am so glad you are happy with your new job and you are closer to home.I’m wishing the best for your dog. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@mirpaxvv]

Congratulations on the new job! I’m so happy for you and the girls. They are probably loving having their Mom with them more. What a blessing! Your stitching is lovely, as always. Great progress with a shortened time to stitch. I’m sorry about your puppy dealing with so much. I hope your puppy continues to improve. Happy Stitching!

[@msufly]

Thank you. Unfortunately Liesl got much worse again so it was a brain tumor. We had to say goodbye.

[@karinmonnich3310]

Love your progress on your beautiful wips. Happy stitching!

[@msufly]

Thanks Karin!

[@lisamunchausen7158]

It’s great to see you. So glad that you have changed jobs. You will be a great service writer and certainly move up with all of your experience. Take care of yourself. Hope you and your girls have a great Christmas! ❤️💚

[@msufly]

Thanks Lisa. Merry Christmas!

[@chelseaolesh9679]

Congrats on the new job! So happy for you! So glad to hear that your doggie is doing better and prayers for continued recovery. All your projects/WIPs look awesome! Merry Christmas! Happy Stitching!

[@msufly]

Thanks Chelsea. Liesl's improvement was temporary. She went downhill again so it was a brain tumor and not the minor vestibular disease that we thought.

[@stitchingbytheriver8666]

Enjoyed the stitching update and plans for some great projects in the future. Congrats on new job..it sounds like a good fit for you and your family. You know what they say...one door clises and another one opens. Take care and happy holidays.

[@msufly]

Thank you! 😊

[@clotheslinecraftscaroline2446]

Lovely to catch up. Congratulations on the new job, sounds like it is a much more positive place. Enjoy your December and Christmas with the girls. xx

[@msufly]

Thank Caroline.

[@crossstitchchaos]

I definitely said "GOOD!" out loud when you said you weren't with Penske anymore. It sounded like it was becoming toxic and you always seemed exhausted while you were working there. It's awesome that you'll have more time to spend with your girls thanks to a shorter commute! I worked in a car dealership (on the sales side) many years ago, and I will say that it's been some of the best coworkers I've had. I think the nature of the work ends up creating a pretty strong and bonded team. Can't wait to see your new starts!

[@margaretbaker623]

Wow! What a month! Congratulations, Kim, the job sounds great. Poor Liesl's turn must have been terrible for you all; I'm so glad it worked out ok. Moldy tack! Oh no! 🤣 Lovely stitching as always. Hope you have a merry Christmas and enjoy your new starts. ⚘️ PS: might a monthly stitch-with-me increase your viewing hours? You could talk about movies, books, which needle you use and why, whether you've tried silk, and so on.

[@msufly]

Thanks Margaret. I'm considering stitch-with-me videos.

[@juliamansour2072]

Hi skim, me again, doing a binge Kim flosstube watch to help with recovery. Love your Ronald Spangler piece midnight munchies the best. I have to say that one got my vote. You tube rules…. Hmm! Congratulations on your new job. Great that you have less of a commute. Less stress on the road! Sorry about your dog what a worry you had

[@lorrainelee597]

Congrats on the new job, I hope your dog continues to recover and do well. I’m a February baby, but not a Leap Year birthday but am thinking of a new start. I have a few Spangler charts and you’ve inspired me, so I think I might start the village bookstore. Thanks!!

[@msufly]

That's a great chart! Happy early birthday!

[@MandyParker]

So glad to hear you no longer have that long commute! Congrats on the new job. Hope all is well with your dog, sounds like it’s been a bit of a roller coaster.

[@msufly]

Nope, she went downhill. Brain tumor. We said goodbye.

[@MandyParker]

@@msufly oh Kim I am so sorry 😞

[@thesteadfaststitcher]

Congrats on the new job and so glad your dogs okay. Was thinking about you, got my hands on Macintosh Mill for a great price, will start in 24. That Blue Flower is great, she had a great meet and greet on the Jingle Ball earlier today.

[@msufly]

Very cool about Mac Mill - you'll enjoy it.

[@TheCraftyCataloger]

Hi Kim, so behind as normal… it was great to see all of the progress on the projects you’ve been working on. Congrats on the new job … that sounds like a win-win all the way around not having to drive so far and be closer to home if the kids need you, etc. Glad it sounds like your dog is going to be OK … that sounds like a very scary situation.

[@msufly]

Hey Katrina. Unfortunately my dog was not ok. She got really bad a few days later. Brain tumor. So it's been a tough few weeks.

[@TheCraftyCataloger]

@@msufly oh Kim, I’m so sorry to hear that. Keeping you and the girls in my thoughts and prayers. ♥️

[@stitchingatthecabin]

I love Sundae Delight so so so much. I'm going to be sad when you finish it and I don't get to see it anymore. I'm glad you are starting all three new projects. Not having that commute is HUGE!! Please move by us and be our service tech. Alyssa has had some horrible dealerships experiences in the last couple of months. You would be amazing!!!!! I can tell you from a lot of experience with UTIs lately with Taco that the best way to tell is if the urine smells like musty fish. If so, UTI. The balance/eye thing was fascinating. I thought you were going to say it was vestibular disease. I think they call it old dog disease? I can't remember. It sounds to me like vertigo. The eyes do that wobbly thing and they tend to be very unbalanced. I'm so relieved your fur baby is feeling better. I hope it's not a UTI, but at least that's easy treatment if it is. Well, I mean assuming they give you the right medicine and enough of it.

[@msufly]

Yes, they thought it was vestibular disease since she seemed to get better so "quickly"...which is relative because 35 hrs was a long time for me to worry. At least with me starting Midnight Munchies on leap day, I'll still have a fun Spangler dragling piece on the go after Sundae Delight is finished in 2025.
