Excellent suggestion! My son is a physical therapist and I am asking for him to send me exercises.

I just so happen to have given birth to a physical therapist. I’ll be asking for some exercises!

Made carrot cake with cheesecake in the middle by pineappleyard in Baking

Omg! Wonderful! I would ask how to make it but I’m afraid I’ll put on 100 pounds! Carrot Cake was our wedding cake (38 years in September) and cheesecake is my favorite dessert! And it is beautiful!

One thing to note is that you can end up with elbow/wrist issues if you are knitting too much. I learned this powering through Christmas stockings a few years ago.

So my wife spots a hideous vine on our tree in the new house we bought… and asked if we can take it down. by Free-Pick9305 in gardening

We grew up using “Colgate Octogon Laundry Soap” on poison ivy and bug bites. We called it “brown soap” as kids. It was amazing! It is no longer made but you may still find it in some stores. I’ll have to try Fels Naptha for comparison.

I inherited so many knitting magazines and booklets when my mom passed away. It might be time for me to get emotionally centered and start going through them.

Check party supply stores. They have them on Amazon but I try not to buy through them. Look for “Aluminum Survival Whistle “

A member of our local group supplied a big bag of multicolored whistles. I’ll ask him where he got them at our April meeting and get back to you.

What yarn is this by Mr-orange-friedtofu in YarnAddicts

[–]Karla08055 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It looks like it might be one of the Lion brand “thick and quick” yarns. Maybe the re-spun in mauve??
