Have a lovely week, Katie! Thanks for keeping me company while I work. 🦋🦋
I love hearing about the boys and your life with Adam! I follow you because I love you as a person not just for diamond painting related things. I can put on your videos that I have seen a ton and just paint while I happily listen lol your voice is very calm. I hope that doesn’t make me sound like a werido 😂Thanks for another great video friend. 😊💙
Her voice was also what kept me watching her videos until I realized I stayed for her content and personality!
These WIP+chats I didn't realize would be so relaxing and a great thing to listen to and watch while diamond painting!! Thank you for sharing with us what has been happening in your personal life. 🐳
Hey Katie!!
Thanks for chatting as I work on my WIP. It brings me joy! 💙🦋🦕
Hi Katie, thank you for this weeks WIP n chat 💎 🦋
Nice video. 🥶it is finally getting cooler here.
You and the mods have been doing such a great job answering questions in the group! Whew! so much work! Today I was working on my drills and chills kit. 🐾🎁
🧢 Hi!!! Katie, hope everything is well for you and family. Love hearing about you all and what you all are doing. Please keep on doing what you are doing in making our days brighter. God Bless you and your family ♥️🙏🏻
🐳🐬🦕my favorite part of your wip and chart is when you talk about your family Katie 😊
I love hearing you talk about your family - your boys sound adorable! 🩵
💎💎 Hey Katie! Glad you had a nice family weekend. Here's to a great week!!
Always l💙ve your WIP and chats
Butternut squash mac and cheese!
People are so weird! I don’t even like kids and I like hearing about your kids. More than that I LOVE hearing how you talk about your kids. I didn’t get my autism diagnosis until a year or so ago. The way you respond to your kiddos needs is so kind and heartwarming. I’m basically healing childhood trauma vicariously from your stories about your boys lol 💙
The first time I got to the end was yesterday, when I feel asleep to the video 🤭💤💤
These are so calming, and really nice to listen to when my insomnia is particularly bad. But I always come back to watch then again so I can actually absorb the things you talk about! 💙🩵💙
🚙🚙🚙🚙🚙 Have a great day! 😊
Hey Katie, I don’t comment often but watch a majority of your vids for years now (catching up on WiP and chats I missed now) - I also have adhd and I always notice we have the same tendency to overly justify the things we do. All this to to say, I’m childless and still love hearing about your kids and your family. Your chats are great and you’re doing great 💜
🧡💜🧡💙
💙
I enjoyed spending time with you. Enjoy your week🎉
I’m happy you’ve been feeling better and getting out and about. 💙
Hi Katie! I just wanted to drop by after already watching this WIP to inform you that you are officially an influencer!!! I have now bought three diamond paintings from DAC, and two PaintGem mini sets (I used your discount code for this one - thank you!). My heart is happy but my wallet is sad lol but thank you so much for putting in all the effort in these WIPs and Drills and Chills, and all your other videos. It keeps me company when I diamond paint and opened up a kind and funny community to me 🩵
Oh my goodness. I couldn't finish 4 diamond paintings in a month if I tried. Even 4 of the Paint Gem minis. Definitely give yourself grace.💎🖌💙
🦋 glad you started this channel I’ve learned so much not only in the tutorials but watching you work in the wip and chats
I love those colors!!! All types of blue are my favorite 😍
Caramel tea helps me sleep
Looking forward to happy 📬
💎I saw that docuseries about the duggars and their religion, fascinating!
Thanks for another great video....
I appreciate you talking about just holding it all together. I feel like often I am trying to keep all of the balls in the air and not doing a great job at it. I. Actually feel guilty sitting down and diamond painting and not cleaning the house.
Yup! So I have a mid shift and my boyfriend has an early morning shift. The mornings before my shift start are either spent on crafting and chores 😂 candy apples are one of my go to fall snacks 💙💙💙
💙💙💙
Hi Katie!
I enjoy your videos so much. I am very new to diamond painting and you have helped me so much! Thank you! 😁💕
I didn’t do the tandem read myself in that series! I just followed the book order! I absolutely loved that series ❤. Sarah J. Maas is such a fantastic author!!!
Hi Katie
It's always good to hear updates on the boys.
Just working on my Chuck Pinson. thanks for info about the Doc on prime the Duggars. I watched them from day one. Have a great week. Watching this on Monday September 11.
Lovely to hear that both of your boys are settling back into the swing of things with school 💙 Looking forward to seeing what you’ll work on next for drills and chills. I’m currently working on the final row of Rococo Dream and have Spirit Lands - Castle kitted up and ready to go 🪼🦋🐳🫧
Always enjoy your WIP 🐦🐦🐦
Cheese prices in Europe 😂. I love hearing about your family, as an empty nester it's nice to hear mention of littles❤.
💙 💎
Looking great 😊. 🌏
Hi Katie. I enjoyed your WIP n’ chat and I always look forward to them to start my week off. I for one am a sectioner, thanks to you. It helps me feel like things are manageable in squares than the entire canvas at once. I’ve never used release papers. I also love sectioning because it’s a great excuse to use my washi tape.
Thanks for the reminder about the Duggers documentary. I too did not watch the show but know of them and even had it written down to watch. I am currently reading a book called “The Notes” which is part of the BTS universe. I am listening to the Deadwood series by Ann Charles. They deal with mysteries and ghosts and have humor as well. I’ve gone back and am rewatching Teen Wolf (the TV series). It’s a drama and quite different than the movie. I am working on “Oberon” from DAC for Drills and Chills. I’m almost 1/2 way done.
I hope the rest of your week goes great! 🧵
Loved the chat this week! I love hearing about Adam and the kids and all your crazy adventures 😂. I'm not a big pumpkin person but my dad loves the bars from Trader Joe's. " A Pumpkin walks into a Bar" I finally finished reading all of Sarah J. Maas books, and I started Fourth Wing.... KATIE you have to read/listen to this book. The dragons in this book, amazing! 🐦🐦
🌈 I'm working on my each tree has a soul-diamond art club kit for drills and chills and hoping i will get it done especially since its my first square and its pretty decent size
So many things to comment on today! First, yes, I do prefer cleaning when no one is in the house. I have no idea why, but I'm so much more motivated when I'm alone. Second, I have read the Throne of Glass series, and I did not read those two books in tandem. I read them without looking up any fan groups or anything, so I was on my own, and didn't know they were at the same time, till I got through both of them. I managed just fine with the cliffhanger 😊. Last, I enjoy hearing about your kiddos. Mine are around the same age (5 and 9), and it's just nice to hear from another mom going through the same things. I'm currently working on my drills and chills piece, it's a DAC - Spirit Lands Castle. Just love the colors in it! Hope the rest of your week goes well!🐾

Hi Katie. I was watching a current WIP and chat lol and left it running as I was having a mind wander. Well i ended up on this video. I came around or remember you talking about reading 2 books in random and I nearly choked as I have a problem reading one and remembering what has happened. Was it this wip and chat or this year's where Adam has hurt his eye?? 🤔 oh boy I can see me having to watch all again. I'm not having a good day/week infact I could do with jumping forward to 2025 and hoping the year is better. I hope the boys have a lovely summer at home and summer school x Ellie x x

💤 - me after staying up way too late last night working on my Drills and Chills project
Hi Katie, Thanks for the WIP 'n' Chat. While watching your video I am working on "Think Of Me" by Mandie Manzano. Wishing you and your family all the best from Australia.
I've been working on my drillsnchills dp. I just got it in a Sunday. So I'm late participating in the event. 😂🎉
🥶 it is cold here in Minnesota but next week we are in the 90's again. I'm working on my #drillsandchills2023 only my 2nd time joining in on the fun. I also have started a new Afghan blanket. I just learned how to crochet almost 1 year ago and love this crafty hobby alot as well as my diamond painting.
Love your content & hearing about the kiddos! 😊 Was working on my Drills & Chills 💙
Have you ever heard the TSwift songs Safe &Sound and Crazier. They are both from soundtracks . You probably have cause you're a mega fan💙
I had to laugh when you said how you get extra energy when the spouse leaves because you kept me company as I did dishes. My fiance took the car to get inspected 😂
I enjoy your WIP & chats! I'm still working away on Tis the Season by Abraham Hunter. After that, I'll be finishing Tiger Mantra by Christopher Lovell, and then I'll be trying to decide what to work on next! Hope you have an amazing week, Katie!! 💙🩵🐦🦕🪼🦋
🦋🦋I’ve never been a huge fan of Taylor Swift, I didn’t dislike her but just wasn’t a Swiftie. But the last few months that she’s been on the Eras Tour, that is all my FYP has been and I think I’m crossing into Swiftom 😆 I love you’re videos, hope you and your family have a great week!
🦋 I’m doing well this evening I’m working on my first crystal canvas for drills and chills 😊
Love the colors! 🩵🩵💙💙
I enjoy hearing about you and the your family.. I am working on DAC Tennessee River sunset.. 💠🐦💙
I’m working on DAC Halloween Cat for drills and chills. Thanks for the updates!🌎🫐🧵🧢🦋🪺
The Shadowhunters show is based on the Mortal Instruments books. I've read all of them and I really liked them. 💙
I always watch any CZcams videos in 2x speed so I can relate haha my bf is always asking how I can listen to it like that but anything slower feels so slow now 😅💙
Hi Katie. Blue, huh. Well. I’m working on a blue snowy owl snack size from DAC for claws and paws. And it’s so much blue. 🙃 Also I am halfway through ACOTAR. Love it. I’m back to reading in bed at night and I’m so happy that this is a series. I love it. Thanks for mentioning it often in your videos. I’m gonna try The Fourth Wing too but maybe after I’ve finished living in this series first. I used to read voraciously (real books, not audio not that there’s anything wrong with that lol) until I started diamond painting. My reading just dropped off. Anyway, thanks. Im finishing my last few drills on the Rainbow Edition of Paint Gems so I can start my new Summer and then Fall editions I just got. Take care. Have a good week. ❤
😎
💙I’m working on my little red riding hood painting from DAC for drills and chills
Thank you for the WIP and chat, Katie! Love hearing about the boys and how they are doing! Also, I love hearing that you're in a great space and that you all had a great weekend! Hope you have a great week!💙🔷️
🥶. Hoping for cooler weather soon!
🏰
👗👗👗 I began reading Assassin's Blade the prequel to the throne series, Katie. I LOVED it. It provided me with context. After that audio book. I bought 4th wing. OBSESSED with that book I only havw 7 hours left & the next book is called Iron Flames, I think & that's being released in November😭 So now I have to make the 7 hours last!!! A chapter everyday maybe?!?😂😂 I'm working on Corpse Bride from DAC for Drills & Chills!!!❤
🦋🐳🦉
💙 Working on Tree House by Sara Burrier. Finally past the half way point.
Katie, PLEASE tandem read EOS and TOD. 1000000000% worth it. I did the tandem read via audiobook and it is definitely challenging but there are ways that you can mark where to end on the Audible app if that's what you use! :) 💙
🐦💙🐦💙🐦💙🐦

Hi I enjoy the wip & chats some times I will work on my diamond art piece sometimes I'm doing house work but whatever it is I'm doing it's more fun with you along I always listen to the end my blue emoji is ...💙🩵🐦🪺....I hope your week is wonderful ❤😊
🧵great whip and chat
Heia 🤗 I'm working on "Free the house elves" by DAC, and Dobby is looking amazing!!! I'm also trying to decide what to work on next: "the Solar System" or "Superman" ? I can't decide... Keep up with your energy and great work ❄️ We sadly had the first snow off the season last night 😮. Best wishes from Norway 🤗🤗🤗
Hi Katie, good morning. Enjoyed your WIP and chat. Sounds like you and your family had a great time going to San Diego. Did you visit Old Town San Diego?
I just got back on Saturday from the island of Maui. My friends suggested we take a drive. I didn't realize they wanted to go see the fire damage in Lahaina. Whatever you saw on the news is nothing. Think Hiroshima instead 😢. People were cremated. So DNA is being used for identifying ashes.
You are like me, in regards to motion sickness. I used to suffer from motion sickness when my Mom would drive through Laguna Canyon Highway. Luckily now there is the 405 Freeway. We would go to Laguna for the annual Art Festival. If you have not been, go and also get tickets for Pageant of the Masters.
You mentioned your cover minder was one you could put your own quote on. Which company was that?
I want to enter Drills and Chills, but my Psychiatrist, and two Therapists said I will have to fiinish Dashshund Puppy first before starting anything else. This is because my ADHD wants to go all over the place. I have more than one I would like to do for Drills and Chills, but at 66 years old I am unable to remember the DP kits names. Oh well, I will check my walk-in-closet and my late sister's bedroom.
Have a great day😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
When I read through the ToG series I just read them one book at a time. Reading in tandem sounded confusing, plus I was reading the paperback copies and didn't want to lug around two giant books haha! It didn't really bother me, I found the stories both interesting enough on their own.

I am finally getting through my first Chemo treatment, still things don't taste great. Drills and chills has helped a lot with side effects of the chemicals going into my body. 💦been raining here all day 💙🐦🐟
✨🎇🎆💙💙💙💙💙
💠💠💠💠💠
😇
I listened on audible too so decided it would be too confusing to tandem read. I tend to listen while driving so it wouldn’t be possible to keep swapping. I loved the books but there was still an adjustment starting tower of dawn to ‘go back in time’ almost. Either way…. Well worth the read. X
💤 - working on Scary Hall from Dreamer Designs. I need to go to bed after this section….
Not pumpkin but Aldi has sweet potato cinnamon
chips. I may or may not have eaten a whole bag😂
just wanted to chime in about TOG - i have read the entire series 3 times total i think. first time i made it to book 4/5 and then second time i read to book 6 (i used to reread a lot before a new book in a series came out). the third time though i did the tandem read. i personally really enjoyed the experience. i think if you really like chaol, then you would probably be fine to read them separately, but if you're not super into chaol and his character arc, i'd do the tandem read. it is VERY HARD to read about chaol and the new characters after EOS if you are not a chaol stan lol. if you get a little off track with the chapters, it won't matter too much since they're still very different stories :) i've read all of SJM's books multiple times (except CC2 since it's so new but will likely reread CC1/2 before 3 in jan) so i feel like i can give some good input!

Since so many people do this event now, maybe add a 3rd peraon to help with the burden of keeping up
Hello

🇸🇪
I guarantee I ended up on the same ao3 video. I’m a shameless ao3 hp reader and read more of that than real books. Have you downloaded voicedream and started listening to the stories? Also, tons of people read the stories on podcasts 😊

So glad all is going well! Geeat way to begin the Autumn season! 🪺. 😁❤️👍🏻
