New to this so likely to make a ton of mistakes and sound like a fool. Will do my best to share Temu hauls and progress on diamond paintings. Occasional cat videos and other life events may occur. Have a seat, grab a drink, and let’s get me through this together.
Thank you Sherri. I cannot believe I am so close to finishing that big one. Most of the ones I am ordering now are bigger. Really like the detail on them.
I also buy from 2 small shops here in the US. The thing is a lot of premium companies get their stuff from China. It doesn’t all originate from the US which is why I stay away from shops like DAC and instead get my premiums from Raven Diamond Art and Rokkari. But in the end it IS my money to spend how I can.
@@Diamondz_and_Katz dude I don’t care. Don’t support massive overseas bull sellers like this. It ain’t rocket science. All this justification you’re doing is pointless.
N aw I still don’t believe in too many. I have like 292 actually logged into GemsFlow, but my spare room looks like Temu vomited diamond paintings. I need to get them logged and put away.
Anytime!!! I listen to WIP and chats at work while I am sitting here sorting through these boxes. It helps pass the time. I got a bit distracted last night, but my brain was bouncing more than usual lol
Hi sis, I ❤see you found the tee shirt. I guess you didn’t find one in Gary’s size. Stick with the therapy, it is helping me a lot with balance so I don’t fall as much. ❤❤❤❤
I found one for him as well that has a different saying on it, but he was wearing it that night. I am doing my at home exercises. Next week I will start therapy twice a week at least until I go back to see the doctor September 13th. Will see what he says from there.
I think diamond painting would be fairly easy to teach, people would just have to match the symbols to the canvas. I'd also say that for a cross stitch conversion start small if you want to try it out before committing to something huge 😂
I will work my way up to a conversion eventually no rush. I am not a good teacher…at least in my mind. Right now I really don’t have the time to volunteer. They close shortly after I get off work. Maybe when I go back to my regular hours.
Hi!! Thanks for the mention and shoutout!! 😃. I LOVE that dragon!! I have looked at it a couple of times, but I actually don’t have it (yet!)! 😂. Now rhat I can see how gorgeous it is, I will actively seek it out! Thanks again! Have a great day!! 😃💜👍🏻
What? A dragon you don’t have? Say it isn’t so!! lol It is really nice….a lot nicer in person than I expected. I just couldn’t do a video that displayed a dragon canvas like that without bringing it to your attention. Glad I could be of service! 💖
I hope to get started on my RDA ones soon. Have a big one this month and another big one for Horror Crush planned. Then hoping to get caught up on WIPS and start busting through the stash. Want to do The Poet in October as well for the Break The Silence event, but not sure if I will have the time or not.
I get great stuff, but the problem is I forget I ordered said stuff and order it again! lol. I have a drawer full of keychains and coasters waiting to be done. I just finished my coasters tonight that I was working on while watching tv so now I need to go dig out another “while I wait for hubby to go to work” project. I feel like I am ignoring him if I am in the other room, but one of my canvases is too big to work on in the living room. Small off canvas projects work perfect!
Thank you, and thank you for subscribing. I absolutely love your videos so am constantly trying to send people your way. I finished the gnome this evening and should be able to show him during a haul video.
Hi sis, nice to finally see your face. I think the give a hug take a hug is a great idea. Temu has lots of cute bags for that. I order them all the time. Sorry to see the pain you are in. Hope you get good results from your test. Love you❤❤❤
Yea I plan to check Temu for bags, and to reach out to Nicole at Monarch to be sure it is ok. I really like doing the smaller off canvas stuff, but have no where to keep them all. If I can put a smile on someone’s face then it puts one on mine. I am not sure yet if he will order the recommended CT for the bone marrow edema or not. He has my MRI disk to review prior to my appointment so he may see something the comp APRN or the radiologist wasn’t able to. I will let you know what he has to say. Kind of hope to be put off work to rest and to do physical therapy, but at the same time I really cannot afford the decrease in pay. But I guess with lost hours for PT it would all average out anyway. I REALLY HATE going through old nasty boxes, and am about done with them anyway. Not real sure what else they can find for me to do. Guess we will find out.

Your words do help! The kindness of others goes a long way with me. I know I can be cranky and gripey when I am not feeling well, but hopefully it will pass so I can get back to my normal job. If only they would pay me to sit there and diamond paint all day rather than empty records out of files and put them back in boxes for shredding. Tedious, tedious work! I need to take a notepad and pen to work with me. I am so bored I think of all kinds of stuff to talk about on here, but forget all of it as soon as I hit record! I am a mess and a half! Again thank you for the prayers and vibes. And again….they really do help! 🥰
I love Disney as well. Haven’t been in many years, but I would love to take my granddaughter one day. Thank you for the prayers. My family is safe and sound!
Thank you Ilene! Glad to see you survived Debby in one piece. I was thinking about you as well as my family I have in Zephyrhills. Those hurricanes scare me more than the tornadoes here in AR.
Thank you Sherri. She and the family are good…just wind and rain thankfully. Always worry whenever there is a hurricane even though she isn’t right on the coast.
@@Diamondz_and_Katz thank you for letting me know. I didn’t see a video from her today, but just got home from church, so haven’t looked again. I was worried! I appreciate you so much, my friend!🤗❤️💕💕💕
Hopefully! I will get my Steampunk Johnny Depp done before then. He is a 50x80 and I have a LONG way to go on him. The drill field is not real clear on it, and I constantly second guess myself if I am placing the right ones. This is with using a light pad. Cannot imaging trying to do it without one!
Thank you! I am still in the learning phase of the whole thing and my nerves get the better of me sometimes, but I am trying. I appreciate the positive comment! You made what has started out as a horrid day so much better! 🥰
Thank you Laura! Normally I would have let it go, but the timing and number of negative comments was bad. I see the orthopedic specialist Friday afternoon so will hopefully get more answers on healing time and other questions. You rock as always!! 💖
I have several canvases that are round that look like that. They just don’t have guide circles. On rounds the color outside the drill shows through to help cover the canvas. The ones I’ve done that look square like that came out good. Have a great end of your week! 😊
These have what look like square guides instead of guide circles. I am used to the colored backgrounds on the round canvases, but on these they are actually square shapes. I may try to place some drills on one and see. I do have some actual square kits that I can compare to as well.
I can relate to the being alone at night and panicking. I've been a hawt mess since Sundown left. When Leah goes to work or to bed and I'm alone i start unraveling a bit. It doesn't help that we're out in the middle of nowhere lol
