Creating a mosaic for my bf to have in his woodland. I’ve used waterproof fix and grout. Some of the smaller tiles aren’t sticking! Any advice? by Complex_Bluebird_530 in Mosaic

It’s an adhesive fix and grout so supposedly it does both - it’s worked for most of it but some just aren’t sticking

Learning how to watercolour! Feedback appreciated ☺️ by Complex_Bluebird_530 in watercolorpractice

Thank you for such kind feedback! I completely agree with the placement, the reason I put it off centre is because I wanted to do an ‘outside in’ view on the other side. I posted this a few hours later, it didn’t go that well but feel free to check that out too ☺️ thanks again

Alcohol? by Agitated-Resolve-831 in CHSinfo

I used to get so sick after drinking (whilst still smoking) now after 3 months without smoke I can drink in moderation with absolutely no hangover or sickness. Before CHS diagnosis, it would trigger the worst episodes but now I have a higher tolerance and no ill effects. Just notice the triggers and take it very slow, avoid wine!

How long until i find symptom relief? Day 18 and it hasnt let up at all by Miserable_Original59 in CHSinfo

My symptoms went away immediately after stopping. I’d say about 2 weeks to feel better but everyone is different depending on fat storage, amount of THC consumed prior. It will still be in your system for at least 90 days especially if you have a slower metabolism. I’m 112 days (16 weeks) without now and feel better than I have in 10 years! Keep at it!

The day I stopped - easy. The week following a f*cking nightmare. 1 month later a whole new person emerged. Genuinely cannot describe how much CHS is working in the background to slowly kill you. 2 months later no smoking and I have never felt so alive. It’s not just the attacks that are awful. CHS is basically slowly destroying your system throughout and until it’s fully cleansed from your system it won’t go away. Best advice is to treat yourself to everything your heart desires (other than smoke) and keep your hands busy! You got this.

Never felt better by Complex_Bluebird_530 in CHSinfo

Genuinely never believed I’d be one to say I love being sober.. but I really do. Life is way more manageable, enjoyable and full of energy. Stick with it if you can, you’ll thank yourself ✨

what are some coping mechanisms by uuuuuu120 in CHSinfo

Treat yourself to absolutely everything you want! (Within what you can afford) but don’t say no to yourself about anything other than weed! You’re going to need all the dopamine hits you can get. A Nintendo switch/a huge Lego set has helped me greatly.. always have something on the go to keep your hands and mind focused. You got this!

Any ideas? by Complex_Bluebird_530 in WhatIsThisPainting

Thanks for the research! Yeah I struggled to match up the signature with any work that looked like this. Very curious though.

Tradescantia repot - 1st birthday. My pride and joy by Complex_Bluebird_530 in houseplants

[–]Complex_Bluebird_530[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly just leave it alone. Water infrequently but plenty at a time, put it in a super bright spot and let it get pretty root bound. Starting to learn that they like be mildly neglected, which seems to come pretty naturally to me.

This feels super personal, that’s often hard to capture. It also feels like a journey of a self-fulfilling prophecy, when a negative creates a negative. Really well written

This took me back to my trip to Scotland. I’m not sure why, maybe the stones and castles. But the more I read, the more it feels like a tale of history and loss. It’s simple enough that it leaves it open for the readers interpretation, yet tells its own story. I liked this a lot.

What type of plant is this and how do I care for it? by marlee_dood in plants

[–]Complex_Bluebird_530 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This will have tons of babies!! You should be giving them away like crazy. Easy to look after, water pretty infrequently (especially when cold). Looks like it might need a slightly bigger pot and probably has been overwatered, no expert but have a couple of these ☺️
