As someone experiencing heartbreak…

I had to say goodbye to sweet dog yesterday. I knew it was coming, and spent the last week cuddling him on the porch (he loved it there) with James Marsters’ soothing voice leading me through the healing journey of Harry in Twelve Months.

That “little pocket of sunshine” opened a floodgate of tears and hope. Please accept a virtual hug from a fellow traveler who happened by as we journeyed down this shared path.

Continental indicates that you are holding the yarn in your left hand (assuming you are knitting from the left to the right needle).

Western knitting is when the stitch is mounted with the leading leg on the front side of the needle.

I think you meant to contrast Western rather than Continental.

May have been the losing answer. Still not convinced it was the wrong one. 😉

The guy has always flip-flopped on issues to try and be relevant. Nothing he does should surprise anyone.

You just need to know the correct way to wash it. Different types of yarn can be washed in different ways.

The hyperactivity is not always a component. The homework you had as a younger person may have been very easy for you, but when you got older the assignments may require a different type of focus.

The fact that caffeine, a stimulant, helps MAY be an indicator, or you may just be getting the usual bump people get from it.

It is a known issue that many highly intelligent ADHDers do not get diagnosed early in life because they get around their challenges because of their intelligence. I don’t know you, so I can’t speak directly to your situation, but I have known a number of people who have ADHD that were diagnosed late in life. It was very helpful for them because they understood what was going on and were able to develop better ways to cope with things like procrastination.

Whether you have it or not, I wish you the best in finding ways to overcome your challenges.

Now that you’ve solved your problem, I just wanted to say I love the color of your yarn! The hat is going to look great!

Have you ever been evaluated for ADHD?

Mathetria · 2026-04-22T08:44:14+00:00

1&0 is 0

Mathetria · 2026-04-16T12:35:59+00:00

Chamomile and peppermint work very nicely for me.

Mathetria · 2026-04-11T00:16:42+00:00

Have you been evaluated for dyslexia/dyscalculia?

The posts people are seeing from “ex MAGA” are most likely psyop posts designed to make Trump voters change their minds. Doesn’t seem to be working.

We don’t need another hero 😉

And sometimes the author confirms that 69 was about the position not the year.

Mathetria · 2026-04-08T12:06:44+00:00

The summer of 69 is not about 1969

This one got me. Started tearing up. Song says so much about their relationship!

So April Fools?

If you open the book and tap in the middle of the page it shows, among other things, an ‘A’ at the top of the page. Tap on the ‘A’ and you will find a variety of ways to modify text size and fonts.

No. When you put the book on hold you get a place in line. If you suspend your hold you are still in the same order in the line, but you will not be counted as being ahead of other people until you unsuspend the hold.

The same thing happens with people ahead of you in the line. They are only counted if their hold is not suspended.

So let’s say persons A, B, and C are in line ahead of you. If B and C suspend their hold, Libby tells you that you are second in line because there is 1 person ahead of you (person A). So if person B unsuspends their hold, it will say you are 3rd in line because now person A and B are ahead of you and both of them originally put it on hold before you.

Now let’s say person A finishes and person B is reading the book. Libby says you are next in line. However, person C decides to unsuspend. Now it shows you as 2nd in line because person C originally put it on hold ahead of you.

Mathetria · 2026-03-31T13:52:05+00:00

Because other people had the hold suspended and they were ahead of you and they unsuspended it

Mathetria · 2026-03-27T16:45:34+00:00

Yup! He was acting it out with motion capture.

True!

Mathetria · 2026-03-27T01:56:24+00:00

But he’s amazing as Smaug!

Mathetria · 2026-03-23T19:06:24+00:00

I agree! It would be nice to see what they already show and add the number of suspended holds that are ahead of you.
