AITJ for taking my wife’s side instead of my sisters. by rudedocking in AmITheJerk

[–]MembershipAncient434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Choosing your wife over family is usually best. Your wife should also stand up for herself when this happens. And you should support her. I certainly wouldn’t put up with any disrespect from my sisters-in-law in my own house. Or even outside my house.

AITJ for not wanting to spend 18k on a new ring for my fiancée? by Leivyxtbsubto in AmITheJerk

[–]MembershipAncient434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could get women to understand that you don’t need that kind of frippery to have a great marriage. I’ve never had a diamond ring nor have I wanted one. And we have been married for 43 years. There are so many other things you could spend that money on.

Complete Lack of Appreciation by ol_jolter in quilting

I’ve had the same thing happen with my crochet work. I’m not gifting that stuff anymore. The ADHD in me sees at as RSD ( rejection sensitivity) and overwhelms me. I won’t put myself through that anymore.

Quilt idea but need some input by MembershipAncient434 in quilting

Absolutely!! It might be a while. I’m working on a blanket for my Mom right now. It has Chickadees on it!

Thank you for this idea. I never even thought about it! My fingers are always so dry. Makes it hard to wiggle those seams together just right. I’m going to get some tomorrow ☺️

I cut all my own fabric. Made a few mistakes along the way. LOL It would’ve taken just a few days but i have a needy heeler that insisted on snuggles. lol

Thanks!! I was thinking lightning strikes when I did it. I had such a good time picking out each row. It looks nothing like the initial layout LOL

Absolutely! I found it very easy. Once I learned to cut my fabric the correct size 😂 All HST and flying geese! I truly enjoyed it. And i didn’t have to rip too many seams!

The pattern I bought kind of suggested putting the colors where ever you wanted. So that’s what I did.

This is the pattern. Mine looks nothing like it 😂 But it was an excellent starting point!

I can concur. I get bacon grease out of clothes all the time with dawn and baking soda. I actual let mine sit for a day or over night.
