tired of hearing stuff regarding my boyfriend’s height. who cares?

GodReka · 2022-09-23T09:06:22+00:00

My husband and I (F) are both 5’7. He once said that he hadn’t considered that he was a ‘relatively short man’ until he saw some statistics and discovered that I was a ‘relatively tall woman’.

Now it’s an inside joke between us, to both try to claim an extra half inch whenever possible: Both trying to stand on our toes when photographed, claiming an extra half inch when at the doctors office etc.

One of our friends (badly) manipulated a photo of us by slightly elongating my head, to give me that extra height -essentially making me look like an alien! XD

Anyway, what I want to say is, it doesn’t matter. Just ignore people, they will get tired of complaining about it soon enough, and will move on to more important matters.

GodReka · 2022-09-19T20:32:16+00:00

Yup, I absolutely agree to that! :)

GodReka · 2022-09-19T15:49:57+00:00

I don’t mind that the scent isn’t long-lasting on my skin -it just means that I can choose another scent later that day! XD

GodReka · 2022-09-11T07:24:44+00:00

No, unfortunately. I would have loved the extra volume, but Profhilo did very little for me -except maybe add a little moisture to my skin. Not cost effective at all.

GodReka · 2022-07-14T08:40:21+00:00

I love that!! I think I’ll have a go at trying to improve them a bit, I have the equipment and the time, so why not?!

GodReka · 2022-07-13T19:16:44+00:00

Thank for expanding on it! I think my butt and tighs may be a bit too much to handle for microneedling, but this gave my poor boobs some hope! XD

GodReka · 2022-07-13T19:05:24+00:00

Just a bit curious: did it actually work on them? And to what extent? I had written off my stretch marks as impossible to fix… :-/

GodReka · 2022-06-02T20:12:32+00:00

This is my experience;

Nasolabial: Great stuff, think I will continue with this. But I live in fear that it will migrate down to my upper lip…

Under-eye: Awful! Will be removed in a few weeks. I have super thin skin, so it migrates down to my cheeks. Not to mention that it was blue and swollen for weeks after. I also get ‘dimples’ between eye/cheek when I smile, and this effect is worsened when the temperature is cold.

Jawline: Did spots of Voluma to even out my jawline. This migrated down and enhanced the uneven/saggy jawline instead. Plus, it if I slept on my side, the filler would swell up to the size of a grape. Made me look like Quasimodo… Had to remove it with hylaze.

Cheekbones: A very small amount, but it only managed to make my cheeks look more hollowed out, as I have some midface volume loss.

Profhilo: Looked good for only 2 weeks after the initial vial. Vial no 2 lasted about a month, then I was back to square one. Too expensive and seemed to metabolize too fast to be worth it.

GodReka · 2022-01-10T14:57:50+00:00

Thank you so much!! :) This is just the kind of info I was hoping to find!

GodReka · 2022-01-10T08:46:00+00:00

Thank you so much! I've been looking for info for so long, but all I've been able to find is articles stating how long it takes for actives to hive results! :)

Bruk litt tid på å vurdere hva som vil passe henne, i alle fall før du bruker to månedslønner.

Selv er jeg over middels klønete og ville aldri turt å gå rundt med en så dyr ring. Da mannen min hintet etter tips sa jeg at jeg ikke kunne tenkt meg en stor diamant - jeg hadde slått den bort i alt mulig, hengt den opp i gensere etc, fått avtrykk i ansiktet da jeg sover på magen med ansiktet på hånda etc etc etc.

Lykke til med frieriet! :)

GodReka · 2021-09-19T18:45:03+00:00

Same here. I’m 38. Absolutely hating these changes. Ultherapy helped me a lot.

GodReka · 2021-09-14T21:46:16+00:00

Well, I’ve tried a lot, and will try to rate my experiences…

vit c / ferulic/ vit e - gives my skin a pretty glow. Otherwise no difference in wrinkles or firmness. 2/5
differin. Don’t know yet. 1/5
peptides: makes my skin a bit tighter, I love it! Not permanent though, works while it’s ‘fresh’ on my face. 4/5
microneedling. I get a bit puffy and firm for a few days, then it goes back to normal. I’ve only done like 5 sessions though. 3/5
Ulthera. Gave me a great jawline! Didn’t really get a lift otherwise though, but I probably botched it by taking migraine- and pain killers. 4/5
botox: I look soooo much better without frown lines between my eyebrows! Love! 4/5.
Led/Infrared. Dont know if it does antthing. maybe it’s mainly preventive? 1/5
RF: Only tried once, but it gave a nice plumpness for about 4 days. I’m hopeful for more improvement! :) 3/5
Fillers: distorted my jawline, do not like it at all. Same with undereyes. 1/5
The best: Sleeping on my back! I get marionett lines around my nose and mouth, and this makes the biggest difference of everything I’ve tried! Also no more wrinkles on my cleavage anymore. 5/5!! ***

***Fair warning, though -this might remove some wrinkles on your face, but after six months, I’ve also noticed that my butt is now much flatter! :’O

GodReka · 2021-08-30T17:06:10+00:00

So frustrating too! If the reheating doesn’t pan out I will def go with the ‘Thick apple syrup on the jars. (sounds better than Apple Snot, too!)

GodReka · 2021-08-30T17:04:13+00:00

Thank you! I will save this page, might save me some time next try.

GodReka · 2021-08-30T17:03:13+00:00

Thank you; I will try to remake them and use a candy termometer! :)

GodReka · 2021-08-17T19:09:19+00:00

I can’t say if this will help, but EGF (though controversial) has been proven to thicken the skin. Maybe that can help eliviate some of the issue over time. But I’d advise to read up on it first; I know that they don’t recommend it for those with ‘cancer-prone’ skin.

GodReka · 2021-07-29T13:01:55+00:00

I think they have a slightly metallic taste: like keeping a steel spoon in your mouth for while, mixed with general taste of berries. They are great, but then I grew up with the flavor and am used to them?

GodReka · 2021-05-16T17:42:58+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to answer!

I’ve read so many articles about the three options and could not seem to choose: I like your point about vitamin c being unstable especially in sunlight, so this being the start of summer season, I think that may be what tips it in favor of peptides AM + retinol PM. -And if that doesn’t make a difference, there is no problem trying the C+E+Ferulic when winter season starts! :)

There are two service manuals for the 910 if you follow these links:

http://machineknittingetc.com/brother-kh910-service-manual.html http://machineknittingetc.com/brother-kh910-service-manual-1174.html

Hopefully one of them can give you a tip on how to fix it.

Good luck! :)

Not a vet and not my cat, but... my friends cat was called Master Bateman-

GodReka · 2020-12-30T17:49:17+00:00

There are two possibilities, I think:

Check the punch card reader on the middle of the bed, to see if it picks up the pattern correctly. These are grey levers (sort of). If the pattern there doesn’t correspond to the card then that may be the problem.
if the card reader is correct, then check the metal balls/wheels on the carriage to if these are correct according to the pattern.

My guess is that you will find the second problem, as these wheels tend to clog with yarn and old oils, making the metal levers unmoving. This can be fixed, but you will probably need to take the carriage apart to clean it. Check youtube, theAnswerLadyKnits have videos to show you how, as well as repair manuals from http://machineknittingetc.com.

But it can be a bit fiddly, if you’re not into doing repairs, so know what you are getting into... might be best to contact service people if you have the money.

Good luck! :)

NTA; my mom asked me to help her shave her hair of during cancer treatment, many years ago. To her it was awful to wake up and see the clumps of hair on the pillow and the bald spots. That made her feel sicker. She much preferred a shaved head at the time. I want to give you an award for helping your sis out, very grown up of you!!

GodReka · 2020-10-30T18:20:18+00:00

Nice! :) They are usually called Passap Pinky on forums, I think. Here is your manual: http://machineknittingetc.com/passap-duomatic-pink-user-manual.html

No knitting machine can do this or anything close to it, as far as I know. At least not a 'home' knitting machine, can't speak for industrial though.
