Vlogmas 2023 :: Episode 2

[@marticote3442]

I have to remind myself often that getting outside in nature can be so rejuvenating. Glad you took the time for yourself.

I, unfortunately, was completely overwhelmed after Thanksgiving. I’ve been listening to your advice and decided to back waaaaay down. I saved many of my vlogmases to watch after the big holiday chaos was over. I am so very happy that I can now sit down and watch all your vlogmas episodes one after another. Christmas is not easy for me, so watching vlogmas in December just makes me blue. Now watching them from the future gives me nice warm vibes. Thank you for being who and what you are. I enjoyed this episode, and I’ll watch the rest of your series while I’m knitting in the next day or two. salam wa sa’aadah

I’m watching vlogmasses late because my daughter was very poorly earlier in the autumn. Fortunately she is doing much better but everything is behind. I do the same thing by setting up a bag for each new project. That’s a job for ‘tomorrow Helen’ to sort out but she will be using one of your red bags which arrived last week and which I absolutely adore. That combination of red, coral and pink is to die for ❤. Sending love 🥰

So happy to hear your mom is doing well and that you were able to get into the holiday spirit after her procedure ❤ You’ve had so much going on this year and you took a much needed break. I hope you can have more down time during December. Your coffee looks amazing. Love your Tolsta tee and your Christmas tree 🎄

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thank you, Sabrina! And yes, downtime is on the horizon!

Thank you so much for the bag and yarn, I love them very much.

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

You are so welcome!

This was exactly what I needed to hear today, Joanna. Thank you for your thoughtful message. I was thinking about all the changes you made this year - maybe you are just feeling unsettled because you are in that “messy middle” stage between the old and the new. Everything is going to be fine. 2024 will be a great year for you! ❤

Happy Vlogmas Joanna! I loved seeing that yarn cake up. It was so fun watching it change color. Sorry about your ornament but I think your tree is really pretty. Glad to hear you are taking care of yourself, always. Its a great reminder to all of us.♥

This was just what I needed tonight x

Thank You Joanna Dear….as You remind us it OKAY to slooooow down…..our lives have to be lived in the moments of our family first….our work which in your Chosen career path is one of alway looking and planning AHEAD …..which we know can be exhausting……just when You hit a GOAL….the next one creeps up…..giving Yourself GRACE to grow your business forward and yet firmly must become a mantra of sorts…lastly your walk as afternoon becomes dusk brings back so many memories of growing up in Sacramento during the 50’s and 60’s…….the coloring of the sky….enough said…..

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thank you, Sherry! And so glad I could bring back some good memories of Sac!

Love your music selection while decorating your tree and the pine cones are such a neat touch. Happy holidays ❤

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thanks! Happy Holidays to you too! 🥰

[@bighairedbookworm3578]

so lovely to spend some time with you! The holiday box looked beautiful xxx

[@lauramartens5516]

What type of coffee maker do you have? The drink looked amazing. Enjoy your podcast so much, thank you!

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

It was so yummy! I have a Nespresso Citiz

[@Melissa-he3lo]

Joanna, thank you for your gentle and joyful clogs. I was starting to get anxious with the passing days which seem to be passing more quickly the closer we get to Christmas, but your example is a good one and it has helped me remember to slow down and savor the moments. I hope your mom continues to do well. Merry Christmas!

[@KitchMakes]

Glad your mama is back home and recovering well, wishing for the best/simplest results. What a great reminder this vlog was, that we probably all needed to hear as we hit the home stretch of the festive season & calendar year.

[@GATeacherfriend]

I have a lot of Chiaogoo both fixed and interchangeable. I love hiya hiya's stabby tips! Hit me up if you're serious about destashing yours!

[@MKathyONeal]

I sure love your channel!! Your content is so interesting and looking forward to more!!

[@JennyFleming]

My sister ripped her pants at school 😂😂

[@bethpaschal7859]

Beautiful message and podcast Joanna. I’m glad your mom is doing better. I pray all the reports come back good as well.

[@thizizliz]

Caregiving is HARD, but for most of us, we don't really want strangers caring for our loved ones either. May your Mother get good results you can celebrate throughout the end of the year. Happy Holidays - there is an embarrassment of holiday riches this time of year - we are so lucky on so many levels. Sending good wishes for all of your worries.

[@sarahlovesdonuts9601]

I hope that your mom’s recovery goes well and that no other interventions are warranted. I can see how you would crash after this week, month, season and year. All of the ups and downs really ware us out…even more it seems once we enter “middle age.” Keep doing what you do and being you!💗
