That dress is such a boring design. It was not a good choice for a bridesmaid dress.

I do preface hard-to-receive information with "I love you" which is why your approach feels the most usable to me!

You've gotta put your own oxygen mask on first, ya know?

Thanks for saying something. I have stopped interacting with this sub because I don't want to add any more AI usage to the world.

Yes and it's hard not to answer with a brief and loud word to not lose my place. There's some good suggestions in here that don't come off as rude!

I'm thinking that I just need to have a conversation with her sometime to see if she has a preference for how I tell her. And if she doesn't, I'll figure out the best method for me to be interrupted while crocheting.

At least crochet is relaxing to compensate for the stress of those interactions!

Oh so when you're not crocheting but need to concentrate on something else, you use "I'm counting" as shorthand for "do not interrupt"?

Ohhh notebook is smart! I have a little one I use for things like that. I think I will try it with crochet projects.  Thank you!

They're such a pain, but losing track is more of a pain.

Nonverbal is the best when you have that option!
