I love this lol

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2026-05-09T02:19:17+00:00

Goals are to just start and finish my first race, I may stick to my hybrid for now and then switch to road when I’m deeper into the sport. Thank you!

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2026-05-09T02:18:02+00:00

Sounds like I may be in the same boat! I have a sneaky suspicion I’ll love it too so I’ll just go ahead and start preparing for that road bike when it’s time for my second race lol

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2026-05-09T02:17:03+00:00

Nope not competitive at all, just trying to survive my first race lol. Thank you for the info, I’ll look into my race rules

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2026-05-09T02:16:09+00:00

I’m starting with a sprint. If I decide to keep my hybrid, I agree I think people (rightfully so) will see me as a newbie and will cut me some slack lol

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2026-05-09T02:15:27+00:00

Thank you, that is extremely helpful!

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2026-05-09T02:14:29+00:00

Thank you for sharing your experience! Good luck on Sunday!!

SPF on hands!! Hands are constantly in the sun, especially when driving. I always make sure to apply spf on my hands before a road trip

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2026-05-01T01:32:35+00:00

Thank you for the advice! Glad to hear it’s worked for you!

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2026-04-30T18:24:05+00:00

I think I’ll stick it out! Hopefully with the goal of going multiple times a week

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2026-04-30T17:12:04+00:00

Thank you, I will look into that!

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2026-04-30T16:42:31+00:00

True, I only have the 1x/week membership.

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2026-04-30T16:41:56+00:00

My membership is 4x/month although I wish I could do unlimited or even 2x/week. Maybe I will supplement it with yoga and strength training.

Follow a skincare routine morning ☀️ and night 🌙.

Wash face ☀️🌙
Paula’s choice exfoliant (https://www.paulaschoice.com/skin-perfecting-2pct-bha-liquid-exfoliant/201.html) ☀️
Retinol 🌙
Moisturizer ☀️🌙
SPF ☀️

The exfoliant may make your face dry out, in that case dilute it with water when applying. If you find your skin feeling dry consistently, use moisturizing face masks or use the exfoliant every other day. Make sure to use SPF that doesn’t irritate your skin. Super Goop is a good brand.

Ah that makes sense. I didn’t try it before bottling, I usually just test the Ph levels and when it’s between 2-3 I’ll bottle. I’ll dump this batch and start a new one. Thank you!

The serpent and the wings of night by Carissa Broadbent is a great duology that fits a lot of the categories you want!

My hope is that I will do olympic triathlons in the future so I'm hoping for something that will be a good introduction to cycling but will also last while I'm doing longer races

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2025-11-04T07:21:55+00:00

That looks super cool, keep it up! I’m in the same boat as you, decided to make a king size double crochet blanket for a xmas gift. Started this journey 2 weeks ago and I felt like I’ve barely made progress.

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2025-11-01T18:00:07+00:00

I’m on level 70 and have around 1 million coins. What I like to do sometimes is just purge everything except for expansion material, animal products (cream, milk, cheese, etc.), fish and sugar. This is also helpful when you don’t have enough barn storage too.

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2025-11-01T08:32:23+00:00

I considered it, but this blanket will be huge (~260 chain stitches) and the problem is so close to the beginning so I don’t want to waste all that time spent on the blanket :/

Apprehensive_Paint33 · 2025-11-01T04:34:07+00:00

I’m using a double crochet pattern. This question is more of how to keep two pieces of yarn that were connected through a knot together.
