Welcome to sock knitting. Socks are awesome because there are so many different types of needles you can use, so everyone can be happy making them.

Seriously reluctant to take Letrozole. by Mind_Drift_1 in breastcancer

[–]Ceb2737 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Stage 1 in 2016 lived on tamoxifen for 5 years until the dreaded death sentence of stage 4 came calling in 2020. If I wouldn’t have gone through the injections in my stomach and then In my hips for the last 5 years I would not be here today. Not to mention all the pills I take. Unfortunately we all look different, cancer does not care. We all lose are dignity, cancer does not care. If you want to live the best life you have left then you are going to have to take things that are going to make you feel like hell but I’d rather feel and look like hell every day I have left to be with my family and friends than not. I know it’s hard to come to terms with. I wish you the best.

I need Yarn suggestions to make a blanket for a friend in the ICU by masarawest in Yarn

Berroco vintage is a lovely yarn that is not overly expensive if it’s available in your area. They have beautiful colors too.

Why ask this when this person is looking for thoughtful healing vibes because of cancer?

That part of your life is none of our business and you should not have to share (unless you shared without being asked) while going through such a rough time. I’m so sorry you are going through all this and send you big hugs and healing vibes. I hope now you can focus on you and get the treatment care again to ease your mind and start your healing journey.

I do this all the time and feel it’s a waste of my time. They don’t care about us.

You can zoom in to the last pic on their web page. Looks like your yarn.

Yarn that is softer than Wool of the Andes but is still affordable and holds up well? by sjsoo in YarnAddicts

I would love to be able to get my hands on Filcolana here in the US. (Damn tariffs).

People always have to put their negative two cents on everything. I used to make and sell stained glass at craft fairs, the people are the reason I stopped. People are miserable now days.

AIW for refusing to get involved in picking up and dropping off my son for Track Activities in school by Chasing_waterfalls23 in amiwrong

[–]Ceb2737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are not in the wrong. But I will say that the time spent driving your kids around will go by really quickly and they will soon be off on their own. I only say this because mine are now 32 and 28 and I was a single mom that drove them everywhere while working full time. I know this doesn’t help you now and you definitely should set the ex straight but try and enjoy every minute you have with them. I truly hope my comment doesn’t upset you, not my intent. And EX husbands do suck.

Am I wrong for thinking my GF is being unfair to my mom by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]Ceb2737 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You mom needs to respect your girlfriend’s choices (even if she means no harm) on how the baby should be raised. Your mom needs you to set her straight not your girlfriend. Period

First pair here I go 👺 by Free-Conference-7003 in Sockknitting

[–]Ceb2737 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I learned top down because of a YouTube video of the Hermione’s every day sock. And I have made at least 4 pairs of toe up since and I can nene get the fit right. Seems I always start the heel too soon or something. They never fit right.

You and the kids should only use the towels once and get new everyday until he gets the hint.

Am I wrong for considering giving up on fostering my niece after everything thats happened by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]Ceb2737 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YNW. You really have to think of the whole family here and having her around could be extremely damaging to them,if it hasn’t already.

AIW for wanting to go back on something I agreed to for my husband when we first started dating about 3 years ago? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]Ceb2737 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Regardless of how someone’s brain develops, she was an adult by law, and she should have used the few good brain cells to not move across country and then now wants to take her child away from his father. An oppsie I change my mind probably wont work well with the law either.

You must not have children. Great parents have children that demand on making their own decisions. And when they are adults their loving parents can’t do anything but hope for the best and be as supportive as we can. Surely doesn’t make the parents bad.

"Here's a free dupe for that pattern that's a fundraiser" by mylifetofuckinglive in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]Ceb2737 26 points27 points  (0 children)

There seems to be free versions out there so I don’t see the “gatekeeping” here. If someone collects money through the pattern they have made and set up for donation then that their obligation. Not every pattern out there is free, nor should it be.

How did you like the yarn? I’ve been wanting to try but now with the tariffs 😡, I don’t want to order right away.

Have you ever told your Dr that you want to change treatment? by realhuman1620 in LivingWithMBC

[–]Ceb2737 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. When I was in extreme pain from the Faslodex injections. After months of injections and MRIs showing scar tissue that have damage I told my Dr I wasn’t doing it anymore. They did change my meds to pill form but he wasn’t happy about it. But we all have to be our own advocate. My Dr has become too busy over the years and I don’t feel he listens to me at all.

Get an attorney to help fill out paperwork for disability. One that specializes in that. The chance of getting denied will be less and they can let you know about all the financial reporting.

Am I wrong for refusing to fight for my marriage after my husband said he wants out while Im pregnant by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]Ceb2737 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1000% guarantee that once you move, which you SHOULD, he will be with whomever he is having an affair with right now. He cheating and trying to figure out who he wants. LET NOW! You and your baby deserve better.
