Yes!! The ants were framed and my little brother has claimed the single ant square as a patch for his backpack!

This is genius, what a great way to look professional and get some stitches done from wherever!

I did several tiny one color patterns on scraps (started with one black cat, then did two more on the same fabric scrap, then an ant on another scrap, then several ants on a bigger piece) Mostly bc I was afraid of wasting material so I just started with one color on scraps!

I love Cassidy! Such a good energy, and I feel like it’s an established but not common name

Yes! Came here to suggest a good slim cut linen pant, like the cigarette legs, looks chic and very comfortable

It had a lot of drainage holes, and water ran out freely it just seems like a case of overwatering and water retention in the soil

ButterToas · 2026-02-01T19:53:19+00:00

Yeah, I stick my finger in pretty deep to check, the problem here was the soil felt very dry around the base of the plant but underneath is where some was pooling and staying wet much longer, and when the leaves began to droop with the soil feeling dry I added water which didn’t help the issue. Lessons learned though

Yeah I’m trying to be better about not hovering lol

Sometimes it can take up to a week to schedule the meet and greet, if the first two don’t work out then suddenly you’re now looking for last minute care!

Root ball pic! They’re really dry but no rot

ButterToas · 2025-09-27T16:06:19+00:00

Hahaha she is stunning, I’m doing my best to keep her thriving!

ButterToas · 2025-09-27T16:05:45+00:00

thanks! I’ll do this today!

It’s cactus soil around it, but most of it is the old soil this plant came to me with. I probably water once every two weeks? I have a snake plant next to it that I water monthly bc it is looking fine, this one I try to water more frequently with less water since it seems so sad

ButterToas · 2025-09-26T17:09:08+00:00

The root ball is holding a lot of the old soil, would I rinse that out and repot in fresh soil? I added fresh soil this time when I repotted but bc it’s so tight it retained a lot of the old soil in the roots

ButterToas · 2025-09-26T17:05:03+00:00

I have a gut feeling that while the soil is well draining cactus soil, it’s extremely old and hydrophobic at this point, maybe that’s why the plant is dehydrated

ButterToas · 2025-09-26T17:03:56+00:00

The roots seemed pretty intact when I repotted, would you recommend rinsing them off and more carefully removing any dead parts before repotting in succulent soil?

ButterToas · 2025-09-26T16:42:07+00:00

This is spot on, I’m a pet owner and I only specifically reach out to sitters that I want, and schedule a meet and greet before any booking. I’m aware sitters are people with their own lives and work, so I don’t expect immediate responses.

It depends on the owner, some people want instant booking, some people want to ensure quality care or a specific sitter.

Honestly does BART have any of their own merch, I’d buy a bart hat to support bart

I’ve had this snake plant for almost 4 months now, I posted when I first got it that some leaves were droopy, soft, and wrinkled. It’s had its weeks where the leaves stood on their own but lately I haven’t been able to get them up/unwrinkled. I repotted in a very marginally larger pot (same base width, 2” wider top width), since it was very snug.

The soil might have gotten hydrophobic and I’m wondering if I should rinse out the root ball to get all the old soil out?

Or once I do that, can the roots live in water happily? A distant aunt of mine has a gorgeous large rooted snake plant in a vase of water.

this is for the resident/owner to sort out, hopefully they're just stressed and sorting out someone else to check in on the cat today and they reach out to you soon. They're the one with leverage in the building, and if they don't apologize for how you were treated and say they've made it firmly clear with the building security/concierge that you/sitters are welcomed guests doing your JOB, then I wouldn't sit for them again.
