I just love seeing your mugs! James does a lovely job on your hair! Whooping cough is no fun at all. Praying you & girls are much better real soon. I have had health issues also and ready for them to go away! Love seeing your pets. Gary is adorable! Love your projects always. I don't know why you haven't come up in my feed lately. Yes, I had the notification bell on...sigh. ❤❤😊
You need to talk about wc and how you feel. It's part of dealing with an overwhelming health issue. It's actually therapeutic to a degree. Especially when this community who loves you is so supportive❤
It’s always so lovely to see you. I’m so sorry you’ve been ill so long. I’ve had the whooping cough for a bit also here in St Louis. It just hangs on and on and on, doesn’t it. I so appreciate you podcasting.
Hi Paula..good to see you..I remember having a coughing fit in the hairdressers.. mortifying !!..no wonder you were hesitant..I hate going to the hairdresser anyway..after around half an hour in ,.my toes start curling in annoyance..your hair is looking lovely....loved the colour of those socks..and your shawl is beautiful.. Gary is such a cutie..the Gary stopper made me laugh😂,.☘️XX
Love your hair! Looks great. ❤ when you are sick you have no energy. I just got over Covid and it was horrible. Still have a bit of residual coughing. 😊
Hope you feel better very soon.Considering you have been poorly you have accomplished so much.The mosaic shawl is gorgeous and your sock finishes are such beautiful colours.The bags are such beautiful fabric.TFS
It was so lovely to see your thumbnail pop up - I’m ever so sorry that you’ve been so poorly - at least the weather has been kind so you can sit out and enjoy reading in the sunshine xxx
So sorry to hear about all your health issues. Don’t be hard on yourself, try to be kind to yourself. I hope you get better soon. Love the haircut. James did a great job.
I hope you continue to feel better each day! Thank you for taking the time to make a video. I hope you are spending a lot of time reading and knitting outside with your animals. That is the perfect way to feel better!❤
Hello, Paula, I'm so glad you are on the mend! And your hair looks lovely - that James does a great job in return for the amazing socks you knit him! I hope your healing continues in a straight path!
I think whooping cough is a horrible thing to have to deal with, just terrible I hope you all feel better right away. You’ve had 3 nasty things in a row, hopefully that’s it for 10 years now. Lovely to see a video from you today, I love hearing all about what you’re making and how the family and pets are doing, lovely socks and all your other knitting. Take care , be safe and well. 🥰🙋🏼♀️
So happy to see you back! I hope you start to feel better soon, what a month with covid AND whooping cough you poor thing! Lovely to see you! Thanks for sharing all your wonderful crafty projects, you are my fav! Jay :)
Missed you so much! Lovely to see you here - it must have been so frustrating feeling so poorly. Hope that you continue to feel better….. sit under your tree, knit, read, drink tea - that’s good medicine! ❤
Hi Paula, so happy to see you today, I am a day late watching, but very excited nevertheless. Wow, love how your socks turned out, very beautiful colorway. They look amazing, you are so talented. Love all your creations. Thanks so much for sharing. Love you bunches.
Awww bless your little heart Paula.. ❤ hoping you feel better soon.. I’ve been poorly for quite a few weeks luckily like you I love being home and doing my crafts..if I have the energy xxx
I've had whooping cough since early July and I fully understand how you feel and how it has affected you and your family. I have only had two full night's sleept during these last two months and it has been exhausting. I had what they call a blue tongue, which is caused by swelling. That lasted for 3 weeks and I have experienced the coughing until I am sick plus the other sympton you mentioned! I do seem to be getting better but progress has been slow. Hope you all get better soon. Gary is so sweet!
Hi Paula sorry to hear the Whooping Cough is still troublesome in your family hope you lasses are soon fully recovered All the crafts are beautiful sorry can’t choose a FAVOURITE 😆😃🥰
Wishing you and the girls all the best for a full recovery very soon. Love your bags, so much work in them due to all your patchwork and appliqué. Beautiful handiwork! I have. One already and it’s one of your Christmas ones. Brings me much joy…simple things. Hurry back xx
Lovely to see you Paula. You can talk about WC as much as you like. So sorry that you have been having a bad time.Did they give you an idea of how long it could last? Your knitting and sewing are gorgeous as usual.Sending hugs,X
Oh Paula I’m so sorry the WC is still a bother to you. And Lizzie as well! I’m glad Meg didn’t get as bad. And the men in the house are well. Gary is so cute. I’ve been doctoring so much this summer.. Nothing important just an ear issue. I’m 70 …things are more difficult to mend. Thanks for dropping in It is good to see your lovely socks, shawls and bags. Start that black cardigan in the summer light. It will just get more difficult as the light of winter arrives. I hope your running starts up soon for you.
Your hair looks lovely, so p,eased you are starting to feel better. I think I’d call the brown chestnut lol. Those green sock are gorgeous, my granddaughter who’s 5 thinks so too. Hope you continue to to get better and the girls, stay safe love and hugs xx
Paula, I am so sorry that you are still suffering with the wc! You have had a rough time lately! I have had two teeth removed recently, so I can completely sympathize with you! ❤ I love your projects especially the socks! ❤
Ahh Paula, it's always a treat when you give us a video to watch! Fingers crossed you make a full recovery soon, sounds like you've had a rough time of it ❤
Lovely to see you again but sorry to hear you’ve had some health issues! I love to see your socks and shawls and of course hear about the animals. So glad cute Gary has settled in so well with you all x
I have every sympathy for you having pertussis, I lost two great uncles and nearly lost a third to it, it's not a small thing. I wish more people were taking up the vaccines.
I’ve missed you! Soooo sorring about the WC😢…watching you and just bought my bunting bag❤ Wishing you a speedy recovery recovery ❤️🩹 😊…beautiful shawl!
Hi Paula, so good to see you! You have been through the mill ! I hope the end of your W.C 😅 comes to end soon it must be very exhausting also along with the Covid . Gosh Gary is adorable, love his colouring, missed seeing Ian but he has better things to do with his time during the summer 😁 poor Pam came off worse with Ian 😮 James is a TOP hairdresser 💇♀️ looks good as always. Beautiful Patchy patchwork bags😁 hope to see you again soon Paula, take care, Hugs Suze 🤗 x
Lovely to see you back Paula but I’m sorry to hear about everything that’s been going on, the whooping cough sound’s horrendous. Hope you, Lizzie and Meg are recovered soon and you can enjoy the school holidays and the sunshine (.while it lasts)
Hi Paula so lovely to see you today ❤ I’m so sorry to hear you are still feeling unwell. I was like that a few years ago when I had double pneumonia it took forever to recover. Just take it easy. Love all your projects. That shawl looks amazing in that wool. I love the socks. I’ve been using the paintbox yarn it’s lovely I knitted a pair for Mark in a denim blue, I have a pink, minty one and a rainbow one xx
You have every right to moan all you like, especially if it helps! What a difficult summer you have had. Isn't it great to have knitting and crafting at such times. You do look well, so maybe you will be back to normal soon. Your knitting is beautiful and I appreciate all your pattern advice.
Your shawl is lovely. James’ socks are looking nice. I like the color he has chosen for the next pair. I’m sorry to hear about all your health issues. I hope you are fully recovered soon !❤
Hi there Paula; I'm just so glad to see that you are back on. I have missed you and your family as well as the lovely pets. And I'm glad to hear that you and the girls are doing well now. I hope that nothing else will happen to you and your family.
Hello Paula, it’s so nice to see you back and hopefully on the mend. You are a ray of sunshine and always make me laugh. James did a brilliant job with your hair and with no hairdressing bill you have more money for yarn 😂. I love all your makes and very tempted with the latest shawl you are making. 😊
I love your podcast you always make me laugh. So sorry you’ve been so unwell. You don’t deserve that. I love the dress you have on the top of it looks so nice and you are slim so you wear it well. Love the new puppy he’s adorable. I love you bags but can never get one in time. Can you let me know if you are doing these ones again and I’ll pay in advance? I’m in Australia and would love to get one around Christmas time or earlier if possible. Take care ❤
Nice to see you again Paula! Glad you are getting better but what a pain the whooping cough is hanging around for so long. Gary gets cuter every time we see him!!! Love all your socks, I recently made my first pair of DK socks and they were soooo satisfying. The choose your house pattern looks great to combine with a speckled or variegated yarn that the pattern and colours will compliment each other nicely and not compete for attention. I think Kay Jones has lots of good patterns like that.
Oh poor thing!! You have such a beautiful mug collection. I love to find a mug when traveling to take back home. Gary is a kisser/snuggler so adorable. He seems like he might be a little talker also. I have a new thought now as I get about and shop, I think,” Oh Paula would love this”. Little bits of Liberty or vintage, Lace and ribbons.
I do hope you get over the Whooping Cough soon. It must be so draining for you, and the girls too. You’ve had a real rough patch with health. Hope you are all back to full health very soon! I received my basket from your last shop update, and it’s just gorgeous. I have three now and love them all. ❤❤❤
This summer's been rough for covid. My family spent a couple weeks in England and Wales in June and when we flew home to the states, we all got Covid! I hope your cough and chest improve. All that coughing is so hard on the muscles of the chest. I love James' new socks.
Blimey Paula! What a catalogue of maladies! Thank goodness the worst seems to be over 🤞🏼. My mum always says things happen in threes - both good and bad. Take care lovely! ❤
Hi Paula great to see you again but sorry to hear that you still have whooping cough I'm glad I don't remember having it as a baby in 55 when I was 5 Months old. Great video as usual love your stories and all your knitting etc can't knit socks take care get well very soon sending love and hugs to you all xx
I am glad to hear you are feeling better, you have had quite a run of health issues. I must say you did make me laugh when you described what you have to do when you cough. 😂It was great to see Gary, he is so cute. 🇨🇦
It was a lovely surprise to see my shawl pattern, I had to pause and call my husband to see. I am so pleased you are enjoying the pattern 😊 I absolutely love your Florescense Shawl, I definitely need to knit that one ❤

I'm so glad to see you!! I had WC once, but it did not last three months!! Maybe a month. The coppery yarn--Red Maple Orange or Burnt Sienna, like the crayon color. Get well soon. Being sick is no fun.
Glad to hear your are on the mend! Whooping Cough to me sounds like a barking seal! It seems really deep! Hopefully they can come up with a better vaccine! James does a fantastic job with your hair!! We all need a James!!
