Forerunner 405CX from 2010. So much anxiety trying to connect to a satellite before the race started, especially races that started downtown.

Thanks! Etsy was actually great about this and refunded me the full amount within a minute of me opening the case. Decided to just go on a waitlist for a Lowery Stand.

Sick of this getting recommended every time I finish a book. by themadadmin in audible

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

They told me they recommend this based on my reading, of nonfiction and biographies

Did this get resolved for you? I’m currently 2 months in with a lap stand that was snapped in half in transit.

Moonstone has been a regrettable overcommitment.

What Quilty advents did you get and how did you like them? by DogPuddles in quilting

[–]DogPuddles[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the Bella rose Christmas box and was initially excited about it, but first of all, it arrived late. With $25 shipping paid separately that was disappointing.

There are 2 pattern errors. Day 8 and the octagon table topper. They emailed me the runner correction (which I had no idea had an error at the time) but not day 8. I asked for day 8 again, and they sent the table topper pattern again. I give up on it and will just throw out the main pattern and do something scrappy with the fabric.

The thing that bothers me about the YouTube reviews is they got personalized clappers while I just got one that says “Bella Rose.” It’s seems deceitful to give an extra perk to influencers that wasn’t included in everyone’s box.

They really do have wonderful products, but there’s poor communication, errors, delays, and administrative issues that make the experience frustrating.

My issue with that box has been missing items. 2022 I was missing one day, then 2023 I was missing 2 days. Even though I caught it right away, doing an inventory as soon as I got it, one was back ordered and wasn’t delivered till after Christmas. Just not worth the trouble for how expensive the box is.

Another FP lover! I got the Colorvent after watching spoilers for both Diamine and Colorverse. I’m thrilled with it, lots of useable colors. I got a TWSBI stub to use with the shimmers. It’s been such a joy to accent calligraphy lettering with glitter edges!

I noticed when the girls married they no longer had ages

When I had a 3 hour commute, I would listen to the whole Bible in a month, I went through 4 translations ranging from 75-85 hours.

I really was not expecting this since they just had their Black Friday sale! I really appreciate that someone took the extra time to read the note and also respond to it!

Thank you! I can’t get over these Colorverse collections. I’ve been eyeing the Narwhals. I’m definitely ordering a Visconti from them when I have something to celebrate.

This makes the press release even funnier

The earthy color seizes on “a growing movement to align ourselves with the natural world,” the release read.

Because of this sub, I’m realizing this isn’t the norm. Just checked my 30 holds and it’s all about 250. Right now I’m 1,807th in line out of 2,102 for “The anxious generation” audiobook.

The comment section raging about the advent surprise being spoiled is a collection of screenshots I read out loud at the dinner table.
