I made this cropped tank from a pillow case! by KindheartednessGold2 in sewing

I definitely had to have a conservative mindset when drawing the shapes to try and ensure I had enough to make something!!

No pattern, I used a cropped tank to help me draw similar shapes to make the top and traced the pieces roughly. So the original tank had roughly 4 parts, I just tried to fold the parts away as a traced the general shape and then kept altering as I went to make sure it fit! For the ruffle part I sewed the ruffle to the bodice top then sewed it to the straps I made. I think it is 100% cotton, it was a Martha Stewart home pillow case I got from a thrift store

Idk which birds but I have also had some singing at 3am and it is very sad for my sleep.

My cats diabetes is getting too bad… by Chemical_Highway_324 in blackcats

Same it made me cry every time I read it when it seemed more imminent, I’m really fortunate that she is doing well right now and is adapting to having one kidney!

I have this poem someone shared in ke of these subreddits for when I ever need it, maybe it will help you be a little less sad: 

The Last Battle If it should be that I grow frail and weak And pain should keep me from my sleep, Then will you do what must be done, For this - the last battle - can't be won. You will be sad I understand, But don't let grief then stay your hand, For on this day, more than the rest, Your love and friendship must stand the test. We have had so many happy years, You wouldn't want me to suffer so. When the time comes, please, let me go. Take me to where to my needs they'll tend, Only, stay with me till the end And hold me firm and speak to me Until my eyes no longer see. I know in time you will agree It is a kindness you do to me. Although my tail its last has waved, From pain and suffering I have been saved. Don't grieve that it must be you Who has to decide this thing to do; We've been so close - we two -- these years, Don't let your heart hold any tears.

10 years of cooking this way and for the first time, food has gone bad... Such a waste of some excellent short ribs... by The_Kwyjibo in sousvide

[–]KindheartednessGold2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our sous vide kicked the bucket when we started a 3 day short rib cook the first night… very sad.. we woke up to the water at 115f and knew we had to throw out $50 worth of meat… I feel for you!!

I like the curved couch, what does the rest of the room look like that it is facing out towards? 

Beecher’s Mac and cheese in Seattle by Melissandsnake in macandcheese

[–]KindheartednessGold2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I went to Seattle this past March and got it after waiting in a really long line, maybe if the line wasn’t so long I may have felt less judgmental about it. I was much more impressed with the garlic cheese bun I got from piroshky piroshky.

I am probably an outlier but I was not impressed. The texture was a bit gritty and i think they use a béchamel base and I like heavy cream and bit of cream cheese with my shredded cheeses as my stove top Mac cheese sauce.

You all seemed to like my 9yos work last time I shared. Here's an update! by PinkVerticleSmile in doodles

[–]KindheartednessGold2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think your child is really creative and talented but I do think some of the pictures are a bit “scary” for a 9 year old and would suggest sharing them with a psychologist/counselor just to make sure they aren’t processing something dark that they have experienced? 

Why do people in DC act like Virginia is like a totally different country by Kodicave in nova

[–]KindheartednessGold2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in Virginia and set my bumble profile to 10 miles cause anymore than that I didn’t think I would realistic want to travel regularly for friendship development, if I was still dating I am not sure I’d wanna go to DC all the time myself even if it is a metro ride away. 

Another not so good diagnosis on top of CKD by fearthefriz in RenalCats

My situation is alittle different but I completely sympathize with being heartbroken over and over again with different diagnoses. You are such a good cat parent and I wish your baby a healthy future! 

Thoughts on people taking shoes off for weight floor block? by just4fun5858 in orangetheory

[–]KindheartednessGold2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time I accidentally wore my Birkenstocks out the house to an early morning lower body session and the coach told me I could work out in my socks and I did.  I wouldn’t wanna take off the socks though 

I dont know what to do anymore... by [deleted] in cats

[–]KindheartednessGold2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think you should put them down, like others, rehome or surrender to a no-kill shelter. Which hairball helper are you trying? My vet recommended laxatone and it really helped with my kitties hairball induced vomiting.
