Frustrated With This - Furloughed Flight Attendant Life

[@shey0000]

I was debating on whether or not to write this comment at the risk of sounding wierd or creepy. Here goes.. I randomly stumbled upon your videos about a year ago. I can’t really pinpoint what led me to your videos being that I’m one of “those “ people that believe the equivalent of flying is dying. I mean without a doubt if I ever got on a plane I was done forever. Nonetheless, I was somehow led to your videos , loved the bubbly personality and the insight and subscribed. In September my father passed away and one month later, my sister unexpectedly passed as well. I live in South Carolina and she was from.. Seattle. The sadness was immense, I knew I wouldn’t be able to say goodbye to her. The fear had me frozen. 1 week prior to her funeral, I watched one specific video, Vlog 4 2019. You were on a 3 leg flight. I watched it over and over until I realized, Stella does it all day long, she’s been doing it for years, she’s safe... you have to do it. I just wanted to point out the irony, how someone who never travels stumbled onto a video she would soon be using to overcome an obstacle. Had you not been so bubbly and charismatic, I probably would have kept scrolling and I would never have boarded that plane to fly across the country . Thank you for your vlogs and for inadvertently helping me to say goodbye to half of my heart... my sister.

omg Shey - am in a puddle of tears and am looking like Alice Cooper. I too am a flight attendant (a different airline, but we're all united by wings) and my heart goes out to you. BTW, I watched her videos forever and decided to become a flight attendant because of Stella. Keep you chin up and know you're in prayers while receiving "air" hugs from above. xx

[@shey0000]

@@debbycolon6824 thank you so much for the sweet response. With great appreciation I send you back a heartfelt hug. Stay safe and happy holidays.♥️🎄

I love how supportive and positive Bart is! The tree looks great.

I absolutely love how you have a picture of you and Bart over Francis' bed LOL. That's cute!

[@sophiajoyceferry7150]

Yeah that's so cute isn't it with the pic of mum n dad above Frannys bed, he's their baby .

Girl!!! I have had the same couch set since I was single living in an apt ‘06! It has been with me through the apt and 2 houses! Now I’m married with 2 kids. These couches are comfortable and still holding on strong!! Hope you find your forever couch and I have been watching your videos since you lived in Germany!!

[@lisagyouknowme]

Stella, your positive energy and inspiring words have gotten me through some tough days, so I’m here to return the favor! Sometimes you have to believe that you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be. This year has been a tough one but I truly believe hope is still alive. I can’t wait to tag along on your future trips, but until then I am enjoying just getting to see your day. You’re keeping me inspired with my fitness journey! I’m down 10 lbs! I don’t have a Peleton but I have a similar bike that is helping! I hope you have the most amazing day and I’m excited for the new couch!! Cheers!

[@dondash8921]

So nice to see you getting excited about Christmas. Merry Christmas to you, Bart & Frannie. Stay safe.

[@roxyg7]

Aw Stella that was so cute. Your tree looks perfect. Hope you both have a wonderful holiday!

[@FlyWithStella]

Wising you and your family a happy holiday too! 😘❤️

[@sabinabirnie3761]

Hi there both, the finished tree looks so lovely but for future reference, remember you ideally need 100 lights per foot of tree. Yes it sounds mad but it really does work and it avoids all those plugs with the socket situation. Ask an interior designer and they will tell you that it’s all about the lights being the focal point. Wishing you both and Franny of course a lovely and safe Christmas and the best of health for 2021 xx

[@sheebamoqueem252]

So beautiful. Very decent decoration

[@heavenlyhashbrown1]

Most fun my hubby and I have at Christmas is doing the Christmas tree. Yours looks great. Merry Christmas to you, Bart and Frannie.

[@staceetownsend3947]

Beautiful tree!!! I love real trees for the smell but the clean up after the new year is always a pain!! Can’t wait to see what the new couch looks like.. the saga continues!!! 😀😂

[@anniBrich]

That’s definitely a Stella tree!!!...so cute!💓🎄💓...I can’t even with the couch chronicles!😂😂😂...Merry Christmas to you all!Xx🎅❄️☃️

[@gennieseaview3656]

Hi Stella, Great to see what fun you and Bart had with getting your tree. When you were at the lot, you should have asked for the cut off branches from your tree to take home (after all, you've paid for them). You could have then made some wreaths or just made some Christmas swags with them, to hang on your walls or doors. So easy to do and you then get the scent of the tree all over. Your tree looks lovely, and the most treasured decorations are the best, as they contain memories. Love your card. Take care and keep safe both of you. Give Frannie a cuddle from me. Merry Christmas to you all, from the UK x

Why do I love the fact that you got another couch?💕 It makes my heart happy 😊 I get to see all of these styles in real life 🤣

I wouldn't get excited. By March they'll have another one.

The tree is perfect! Georgetown Pike is a scary drive in that section. It is a designated Virginia Byway and will always remain that way, no matter how many McMansions are built there. Merry Christmas to you, Bart and Franny!

Your holiday card pic looks fantastic-- you all look great. The tree turned out lovely -- so pretty. Whatever sofa you get-- cozy up next to your awesome honey Bart, Franny and enjoy the sparkling tree lights. Look back on 2020 as a university of life lessons and look to 2021 with hopefulness. Have you or have you not a new airline contract in 2021 I know that you will find your place in the proverbial sun dear. Much love from your old hood in Queens! 🎄Merry Christmas!🎄

[@peggyberger6403]

Stella, as a retired nurse, you can fix the fog by putting your glasses over the nosepiece of the mask. You will still have to adjust the mask due to slippage. I can get very annoying. Try it. Hope it works for you. Your tree is great, I did not know that you could return couches. Something for me to remember in the near future. We are planning to move within the next year, Fran Fran is adorable with his toy. Love love your tree. Absolutely perfect. As always, love you both. #bartella

The only thing the Lysol app doesn't tell you is where to find Lysol aerosol spray!!!!!! Stella, what's with you and the couches? Do companies take them back just because you changed your mind? Anyway, can't wait to see the latest one you pick. The tree came out great. You could have mixed in the color lights too and it would look pretty too. Merry Christmas to you!
