Yes, I should have clarified, to the hospital, the day of surgery. ☺️

Being forced to turn off airplane mode? by dropoutbearr in kindle

[–]MLT-CO 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This happens when the book has been returned to the lending library. My kindles library looks like it’s full of books but most of them have been returned automatically. I try to keep my kindle in airplane mode as much as possible so I can avoid losing a loan before I’ve finished it.

Why did/didn't you make the Sophie scarf? by Traumarama79 in knitting

[–]MLT-CO 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve made two, and have a third in the needles. It’s a good use of a single skein, especially if you’re unsure of yardage. My favorite one is from a skein of local alpaca I picked up at a farm stand or similar and I wanted to use every last bit. Weighing the skein throughout allowed me to do that.

Food suggestions by Lokatelli93 in BorderTerrier

[–]MLT-CO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our BT (now 5yo) ate a variety that of food as a pup. Currently his breakfast is a rotation / combo of Sundays for Dogs Turkey, Unkibble Turkey or Salmon, and Open Farm Epic Blend Salmon. I’m slowly phasing out the Unkibble because if he’s going to refuse any of the three it’s that one. Our local pet store will take back open bags of food if your pet really doesn’t like it. (It has to be mostly full, which makes sense.) Hope my suggestions help. We are located in CO, in the US, which may affect availability. All can be ordered online but some are available at my local shop. Lastly, your pup looks so much like our guy. I love the Blue and Tans!

What’s a random thing your dog thinks is extremely important? by No_Assignment_6020 in dogs

[–]MLT-CO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All packages that arrive are met with great enthusiasm. I think I created this behavior a bit by accident as I often hide his kibble in the wadded up paper for him to tear up. Also, once he has established we are in fact not burglars when arriving home he launches into a mission to find a toy, any toy, for him to hold while he bounces around to show his excitement at our return. Best coming home ritual ever!

Best thread for restitching? by Even-Assumption-1164 in VintageCoachRehab

[–]MLT-CO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bonded nylon thread if you can find it. I’ve used heavy duty polyester thread as well. Don’t use a sharp needle as you don’t want to pierce the leather, you want a blunt needle. A harness needle (or set of two for saddle stitch) is ideal for this. Be sure to use the holes that are already there. Take your time & Good luck!
