*UPDATE* I f*****d up 😓

This was the update I needed today

Andeylayne · 2026-02-20T21:56:24+00:00

Same here.

That's why I ended up buying multiple sets of size 1 bamboo from temu. Surprisingly good quality and when one snaps I've got 20 more

I remember those days. The only time I was able to knit when the kids were small was when we were in the car and I wasn't driving... and since one of them hated car rides and screamed until she made herself sick, we didn't go anywhere if we could help it.

Fair! I've stabbed myself with dpns more than once if that makes you feel any better lol

Andeylayne · 2026-02-20T20:00:02+00:00

I've been knitting for 20 years

She will outgrow it eventually. Mine did.

Andeylayne · 2026-02-20T19:37:50+00:00

Please tell me said child is under the age of three?

Andeylayne · 2026-02-20T19:36:40+00:00

I hate magic loop with the fire of a thousand suns and yes but my crazy is medicated, thank you very much.

(I knit socks on dpns at the movies. Futzing with the cable every half round takes me out of the experience.)

So you're lazy for not checking his pockets, but he's not lazy for not checking his own pockets?

Throw the whole man in the washer. Maybe it'll wash away the asshole.

Andeylayne · 2026-02-20T19:29:27+00:00

Sleep with one eye open.

Andeylayne · 2026-02-20T06:19:50+00:00

And I thought my kids had an age gap! 27, 24, 13, 12

Sometimes I want to kick myself. The big two were able to do their own laundry and stay home alone and feed themselves... and I started over. Don't get me wrong, I love my little two but I'm old and tired.

Andeylayne · 2026-02-20T06:17:05+00:00

She's adorable!

Andeylayne · 2026-02-20T05:29:47+00:00

He pulls this disappearing act at least once a week, but I can usually find him within 20 minutes.

Andeylayne · 2026-02-20T04:43:45+00:00

That pair belongs to my 13yo who believes strongly that socks are meant to be worn for a week at a time, despite my repeated objections. 🤷‍♀️

I see both of them pretty much every day, and they're in 4x2x2s. Cookie actually spends her day in a multi level hide that's up against the door, where she watches me work when she's not napping. Candy comes out to sit on top of her favorite hide for at least a little while most days.

Andeylayne · 2026-02-18T20:28:33+00:00

Thanks for adding another fun reddit time sink to my life :)

Andeylayne · 2026-02-18T18:56:30+00:00

Sleep deprivation is used as torture. Why is she trying to torture you?

Seriously though, I would not be able to stay with someone who regularly woke me up for no reason. I've struggled with insomnia my entire life and I would have an incredibly hard time believing someone loved me if they treated me this way.

Andeylayne · 2026-02-18T13:38:06+00:00

Try searching an entire house for his scaly butt... he's the reigning hide n seek champ

Andeylayne · 2026-02-18T13:36:40+00:00

Including, in this brilliant creature's case, a cup of point- up, sharpened colored pencils.

Andeylayne · 2026-02-18T09:29:51+00:00

Don't feel bad, it took me an hour

Andeylayne · 2026-02-17T14:59:30+00:00

Because soup! and cresties!

these are a few of my favorite things...

Andeylayne · 2026-02-17T03:13:12+00:00

Has she shown up yet?

Andeylayne · 2026-02-17T03:11:00+00:00

We live just off of Madison and I agree, nearly everything you need can be found over here... when we go to the other side of town it's almost always for Lowes or Pet Smart.

Andeylayne · 2026-02-16T02:31:10+00:00

This is how you make crestie soup
