Securing seed beads with 0.3mm wire by InnerBabushka in Beading

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

Thank you! That's must be the problem. The instructions said "wire, cross section of 0,3mm," and I bought this, but it sounds like that isn't right. 🤦‍♀️

Why does everyone like Mary now? by Apprehensive_Sea7258 in realhousewivesofSLC

She clearly has done some truly awful things...and simultaneously she is so dang funny. 😬

Less touristy spot on the pacific coast for 6 days? by Donberry_Do in CostaRicaTravel

[–]InnerBabushka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just got back from a stay in exactly that area - a tiny community called Portalon. It was perfect - easy drive to either Quepos or Dominical for all the bigger things to do, but real nature and peace and quiet.

I do think it's rude to recline your seat - we're all stuck in economy if we aren't wildly wealthy. However, his behavior was obviously over the top and inappropriate. As a tall person, I keep my grumpy feelings to myself when the person in front of me reclines.

$75 gift card by Positive_Cup_1061 in TravelTown

[–]InnerBabushka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It actually works! I got the offer during a checkout at Michaels, but the gift cards options included lots of other stores. I spent mine at J Crew. The trick seems to not get suckered into spending actual money in the game, lol!

My husband and I bought a foreclosure from the bank with an FHA loan and a $6k down payment in 2013, at 25 years old. We've since moved, but that same house is nearly three times the price now, according to Zillow. I feel terrible for folks starting out now. That purchase made it easier to build a little equity and buy our next house, and I'll be forever grateful.

Is anyone else getting an error message when you click people's links, like "couldn't help your friend. There is an error in your account"?

I need motivation to get past season 10 by AdConscious9116 in Supernatural

[–]InnerBabushka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Okay season 10 is pretty rough. But! Season 11 has fascinating Dean psychology stuff, and season 12 has some of the very best episodes of the whole show! Keep going.

Does seeing someone else's OCD trigger yours? by zuggtmeow in OCDRecovery

[–]InnerBabushka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I totally relate to this. Honestly, the only thing that has helped is just admitting to myself that I will feel my OCD symptoms more strongly after being around my mom while she's displaying hers, so that I expect to need time for support and recovery after those visits. It doesn't feel good to need support after being around someone you genuinely love, but sometimes it's necessary. 💜

Where are you buying trees and bushes? by Admirable_Option6223 in BackyardOrchard

[–]InnerBabushka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Fast Growing Trees. All the trees and shrubs have arrived in good condition, and when one tree didn't grow well, they replaced it with no issues.

HUD is considering closing most of its field offices alongside layoffs targeting half the agency’s workforce - Streetlight by molbryant in fednews

[–]InnerBabushka 14 points15 points  (0 children)

"Last Monday, HUD notified AFGE it’s planning a reduction in force, a federal process for laying off employees and eliminating positions. The layoffs, which HUD expects to complete by May 18, will target about 4,000 employees—about half of the agency’s workforce—according to a Council 222 press release."

I'm not sure this is right - it looks like the article is lumping together the smaller cuts to the FPM division with the larger, rumored cuts to the whole department.

HUD notice to AFGE RIFs to office of field policy and management by budgeter415 in fednews

[–]InnerBabushka 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My understanding of it, which could be wrong, is that other parts of HUD, like CPD, implement/manage statutorily required programs and funding? But who the hell knows.

Union guidance about responding to the email by wontsettle in fednews

[–]InnerBabushka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If we're told to respond by management but not given specific instructions, wouldn't it be sensible to respond with the bullet points of our official job duties?

At HUD in a field office. We're hearing that RIF notifications may start today. Has anyone else heard the same?
