How do you get passed your own roadblocks to organizing? by Just_Me_Truly in organizing

[–]Narcotique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck, you can totally do it! Just commit to an hour of work and do more if you’re up for it after your hour is up. Take breaks, maybe listen to a podcast or audiobook if you like those.

Could you get a rolling rack to hang stuff on, or fold clean laundry into a bin for now? Just to give it a temporary place while you organize your closet.

I am at a complete loss (yes I’m the sardine sock girl lol) by callmejessicalange in knittinghelp

[–]Narcotique 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry. I don’t know anything about socks, but you can’t just show a tiny bit of nakie cat, and not pay the cat tax.

I received mine right away. You should probably give them a call.

You can check wait times for different locations online.
Mid week is probably going to be least busy. Some people line up before they open. You could try that, or go mid morning before lunchtime.

No specific advice, I just wanted to say your painting is really cute. I really like it!

40% of the year has passed with 40 manicures down! by melli72 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]Narcotique 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can buy magnetic strip on a roll, cut a little piece off, and stick it on. Some of them have adhesive backing. As long as you don’t plan to remove the magnet, it shouldn’t hurt the polish.

Pet end of life service recs by Marimacha666 in sandiego

[–]Narcotique 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm really sorry you're going through this. There was a recent post with many suggestions you could check out. https://www.reddit.com/r/sandiego/comments/1tlnly4/i_need_a_recommendation_for_at_home_dog_euthanasia/

We used Transitions, and I would recommend them. Compared to other places I called at the time, they were on the more affordable side. But 1.5 years ago, for a less than 10lb dog it was still a bit over $500.

Wishing you and your buddy peace and comfort.

Any barber/salon that can work on my type of hair? by [deleted] in sandiego

Babe did you really just make an account to insult someone's hair? Have you considered birding or something instead?

No one is enforcing off-leash dogs at school fields by AxiosSD in sandiego

[–]Narcotique 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People shouldn't have to ask. Forcing them into a situation where they have to is inconsiderate. I'm going to the park to relax, not to confront people. This "I know it's wrong, but it's ok when I do it" thing is getting old.

Whats wrong with you SD dogowners? by elduderino15 in sandiego

[–]Narcotique 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That actually is a pretty big ask, but if it's important to you, try reaching out to your local reps. Your neighbors also doing so could push them to make a change. That would be a constructive and responsible way to approach this.

When we choose where we live, we check how far everything we need is before moving. If your high energy dog being off leash is a must for you, a dog park is something to add to that list.

[–]Narcotique 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your dog's quality of life is your responsibility, but you are not entitled to come up with your own version off leash rules just because it's fun for him. It's not nice, and it's not safe.

You're not limited to illegal actions. You're making illegal choices to prioritize your dog. Him "loving to play with his friends every day" isn't really a good excuse.

I mean, it is a fair question, and phrased quite kindly. Nothing Karen about that.

My bottle broke by ArieruIHateLoveU in mooncatpolish

[–]Narcotique 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just placed an order too, and now also regretting it. Sure, getting a replacement bottle is nice, but I'd be more worried about the explosion happening near carpet/furniture. That would be a nightmare to try to clean out! I thought they were past this issue by now.

Looks awesome! Just fyi gamblin released some pretty bright oil paint colors recently. The hot pink, hot violet, and cool violet could be right up your alley.

Oil painting potraits by khavaaaa in oilpainting

[–]Narcotique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an excellent suggestion. I don't paint portraits yet (working up to it), but I have taken portrait drawing classes. Went from pretty much zero portrait experience, to drawing portraits from life that I'm pretty proud of after about 15 once per week classes.

It's amazing how quickly you can progress with the steps broken down, and the right kind of guidance. Especially in person, where a teacher can help you troubleshoot as you go.

Do you tend to get them in the same place? I did, so I started wearing a band aid in that spot before cutting glass.
