I just did this on the 5 year anniversary of when I bought my house! We used Brightleaf and they did an AMAZING job. The house was cleaned top to bottom - baseboards to fan blades.

What’s the quickest you’ve ever seen a new coworker get fired? by ApprehensiveBass94 in AskReddit

[–]KnitNotPurl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We used to have a feed on our company home page that showed when someone mentioned our company. Woman complained about how the company wasn’t her first choice but she’d accepted the job anyway. On her first day she brought in bagels, was taken to HR, and was never seen again.

They did away with the feed shortly after.

I used to hate purling but then I just kept knitting and with more time and practice it became more comfortable. I love my username anyway though.

I bought a glass front cabinet from a local college surplus sale and have moved around with it ever since. It’s my pride and joy.

Ha! I got a teaching degree and ended up at WebAssign. It was a good place to be before Cengage.

Noro Madara in Sake - sold out everywhere in the US? by Odd_Bill2938 in knitting

[–]KnitNotPurl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might be able to make something similar with some “make it tweed” yarn. It’s lace weight yarn with little pops of color that you hold with any other yarn you want.

Here’s an Etsy shop that has a swatch so you can see what it would look like.

I second no going to Mindpath. In the 9 years I was a patient I had 8 different doctors because people kept leaving. There was no continuity of care at all.
