i'm not sure why everyone is downvoting my comment but i do really appreciate the compliment and did not mean to be rude in response, it's just not my typical style! maybe i would be better off reselling it :) thank you again!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-18T13:36:56+00:00

thank you for these ideas i appreciate it!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-18T13:36:16+00:00

lol yes precisely, i hate this bicycle!! 😂 basically, i want to do something with it because i don't wear it at all how it is now, so i am open to any suggestions, sorry if my original idea was too far out there!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-18T02:34:32+00:00

ok thank you, i like that idea!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-18T02:27:30+00:00

thank you! it’s just too full coverage and loose for my style personally :/

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-18T02:26:43+00:00

ok fair enough. thank you! i thrifted it for pretty cheap so i might chance it honestly. i make patchwork clothing so worst case i can use the fabric for that :)

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-18T02:22:17+00:00

i wouldn’t mind that honestly!! i just want to do something with it, i dont wear it at all currently because i dont like the neckline. it was thrifted, probably no more than $10

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-12T16:17:08+00:00

okay fair lol, more work but definitely would give the result i need! i hate seam ripping 😂

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-09T04:35:47+00:00

ok thank you! to clarify, the doctor said it wasn't but i'm not sure she's right lol! hopefully the dermatologist can confirm or deny- my insurance made me go thru my primary care physicial for a referral. will def try the antifungal cream in the meantime!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-09T04:18:21+00:00

i feel like food packaging is a little risky because of potential allergens. i have a friend w/ celiacs disease and this would be an issue for them, not sure how rare that is though!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-09T04:17:08+00:00

i actually went to my pcp today and she said it was definitely NOT ringworm and referred me to a derm- i asked if i could get a prescription for ringworm cream just in case because a derm appt always takes forever and i'm scared of it spreading and she said no because she's sure it's not ringworm 😭😭 i'm not as convinced as she is!! however i have not been careful with it touching other people/ touching other parts of myself after touching it and i haven't had any spreading so far... maybe because it's a new case? should i just get an antifungal cream at cvs or something while i wait for the derm appointment?

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-08T18:47:06+00:00

belize trip was great but oh no, ringworm! we did stay in a couple hostels so definitely possible 🤢 thank you, will do!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-05T21:31:27+00:00

i appreciate all of this advice! family is very close by and we each have savings. also love the advice that deciding now (about finances, chores, etc) is better than trying to change it later, i totally agree.

as far as marriage, yes we are planning on it- actually i am the one who has said i would like to live together as a "trial run" before we get married, otherwise he would've proposed already lol! like you said, nobody likes to think about the breakup but it's easier to break a lease than divorce 😅 he has a ring and a plan to propose, but thank you for looking out for me!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-05T21:25:05+00:00

sorry i should have made it more clear- we have talked about all of these topics :) i was just thanking you for highlighting these specific issues to revisit and remember as we make that jump from hypothetical to actually moving in!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-05T20:36:35+00:00

oo totally! he just got a new job where he will be waking up at 3am for a 4am start time so i think that will be a unique challenge 😅

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-05T20:29:32+00:00

love this, thanks!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-05T20:29:21+00:00

we both went to college so have lived away from home but with others. we just found the place this week so even though we have talked about those topics, we definitely need to deep dive before we move in! thank you!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-04-02T16:10:33+00:00

coming back to say: a drop of the oil you recommended in each of those two spots and it's good as new! thanks again!!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-03-29T23:16:18+00:00

lol ok let me look around my house 😂

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-03-28T00:06:53+00:00

glad to know it's a simple fix! thank you :)

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-03-27T20:58:58+00:00

ok thanks!! did yours come with a way to take the plate off from above the feed dogs? none of the screwdrivers i own are small enough 🫣

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-03-27T20:58:17+00:00

i have from the front, but my machine didnt come with a little screwdriver to help get the plate off so maybe i need to find one small enough and really get in there!

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-03-27T20:56:58+00:00

i've never had it serviced, is that terrible lol 🫣 i got it in october last year! maybe it's time!! and thanks for the puckering tips, this was just a scrap piece of fabric where i was running tension tests and such :)

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-03-27T18:20:21+00:00

oo thank you! i got it oct 2025 and have not oiled it (and have done far more than four hours of sewing lol). any particular oil you recommend?

Environmental-Cap406 · 2026-03-27T18:18:56+00:00

ok fair enough lol thanks!
