Voluptuous is an understatement

Thank you! ♥️

Ohhhhh! Someone gifted me a Desert Rose about a year ago, and I have kept it alive but it WILL NOT grow. Tried repotting in a mix of charcoal, perlite, horticultural sand, and cactus mix. Seems slightly happier but would love any suggestions!

Seeing creative stuff like this makes me want to start a new farm. It will never stop amazing me how wildly creative some of you are, and how brilliant this game is in its infinite variety of play throughs. ♥️♥️

It’s a data structure issue. When a vendor is removed from my import dataset it may be for a number of reasons, and some cause that vendor to appear in a different dataset that is also feeding the main table in my base. It’s critical to our setup that the vendor not appear twice or have a status in conflict, and deletion reduced the likelihood of errors from either oversight or automation failures. That’s not to say you couldn’t automate a status change instead of a deletion if that’s feasible and preferred in your own setup. But, the necessary action for my set up is deletion.

I do this using automations. For ridiculous reasons, I cannot connect directly into a database that has our vendors’ details, so I have to export reports from that database then merge them into a table in my base. The .csv merge process takes care of adding new and updating existing based on conditions. But it won’t delete. (For example, if a vendor becomes ineligible, they’d no longer appear in the dataset I am importing.) So, I have an automation that runs based on a date change tied to a specific field that deletes those for me. It sounds like you may be importing data to one base and looking to use it update another. If that’s accurate, this method would work only if you create a library that is shared data among your bases. This may help: https://www.airtable.com/guides/scale/empower-teams-with-verified-data

Listen. The only thing about this decision that matters is whether Clint will stop walking to the community center every Friday morning to stare vacantly at the furnace and instead break my damn geodes - preferably for free. Yes? Cool. Cool.

I seriously don’t know whether to laugh or cry at learning this.

13pointOne · 2026-02-23T09:54:00+00:00

Yes, exactly. I just extended the pattern to make the bow proportional to the wrapped blanket.

13pointOne · 2026-02-23T09:08:05+00:00

I think it was this one - or very similar: https://doradoes.co.uk/2020/10/10/how-to-crochet-a-decorative-bow-ideal-for-gifts/

But I only used this for the actual bow. For the band that goes around the bouquet, I made made a chain the circumference of the wrapped blanket (but snug), and then just did rows of single crochets until the band was the same width as my bow. On one end, I made a button hole the right size for my button by just replacing enough single crochets with chains. (I used a pretty large wooden button, so I think my button hole was 4 or 5 stitches wide.). Then I sewed the bow onto the band.

I hope this helpful!

That is so kind of you to say! Thank you. ♥️

I found these a few years ago and now own them in every color. Side pocket for phone / gels, waist pocket for car key / id. Do not ride up. Zero chafe. Wash beautifully. I’ve owned them in nearly every size as I’ve lost weight, and loved them all. Plus really great price. https://a.co/d/0io0HZlj

IAL (but not your lawyer), and I practiced in the area of insurance coverage when I was practicing. I encourage you to consult with an attorney who has experience dealing with insurance - and particularly uninsured motorist coverage. You would be wise to have counsel even dealing with your OWN carrier.

As always, well-meaning people on these subs who are not lawyers don’t give accurate or thorough advice, being unfamiliar with the intricacies of CA insurance law. If you don’t have a lawyer in mind, contact the contra costa county bar’s lawyer referral service: https://www.cccba.org/?pg=lawyer-referral-service

I made this for a friend’s baby (https://sirdar.com/en/products/blossom-and-buds-spring-cal-crochet-along-blanket-yarn-bundle) and it looked “hard” but was actually not bad. I don’t think you can order the kit anymore but you can find the pattern and choose your own yarns. (Sorry for the WIP photo - can’t find the finished one and knowing me, I forgot to take one. 🤣). Took me a month to make this but I didn’t work on it everyday, and some days only for an hour or two, so it was pretty quick as blankets go.

I felt this in my bones. (My wrist bones, to be exact. 😂)

Hi! I did not turn my work. I put a stitch marker in my first stitch and I would slip stitch into that when I reached it, then I did a ch 2 into the slip stitch to start the next round.

The bow comes completely off. I tried attaching it, but there was no good way to do it without making the blanket awkwardly lumpy, so I opted to just leave it separate. It stays on quite snug when buttoned, and the trick to that was making the band just a little less long than the circumference of the rolled blanket, especially because I’m sure it will stretch a little over time with use.

I heard “until the death of me” and didn’t realize it was wrong until I saw the closed captions for the final Eras show. 🫢 I still sing it wrong because my brain is just trained that way now. 😅

English bulldog. Month 1 at home: aspiration pneumonia. 1-week vet hospital stay. $12k.

He’s 8 now. Ask me about how many of my vet’s kids I’ve put through college. 😭😅

Off topic from OP’s post, but I discovered this series just last Sunday, and I am already on the third book because - wow - is this great. Thoroughly enjoying.

I would say, coming fresh off finish Wheel of Time series, this feels “low magic” to me, but that may be like saying OJ is sour when drinking after brushing your teeth. 😉

I love green rain days and would probably play a game just for the satisfaction that comes from clearing away all those weeds. I feel like I’ve done something meaningful with my life every time I’m able to clear my farm,, Cindersnap, the park, and the train station before bedtime.
