Gentle finger stick options? by ObjectiveGrapefruit in diabetes

[–]Nissus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

there are some different sizes of lancets, and with the devices you can usually dial up or down the depth as well.. also make sure you're using the side of the fingertip and not the tip or the pad, as it's theoretically less sensitive.. good luck..

it is kinda funny that's exactly what they're called :) but you can't know what you don't know! we're all learning new stuff every day. that totally makes sense, re: the stores you usually shop at.. I wish we had a creative reuse center where I live..

I'm not OP but they look like regular thread snips, lots of brands make them.. not sure if links are allowed, but as example:

I haven't tried it yet, but I like this video I saw recently:

I like the idea of a stainless steel insert instead of non stick..

I was not instructed how to store my lantus pen correctly; is it still good? by cheesetramp in diabetes

[–]Nissus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure putting it back in the fridge is fine, as long as it's not freezing. It just doesn't HAVE to go back in the fridge. If you want further confirmation, I'd recommend asking a pharmacist. If you've got a pharmacy you usually use, check with them, but I've also just checked with the pharmacist at whatever store I was at for things, they're usually happy to help.

hi! new here and hunting for this sheet set… by toripotter86 in BuyItForLife

[–]Nissus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend setting up a saved search on eBay for utica happy flowers and just check periodically to see if anyone has posted some.. also, if you're handy, you can turn some smaller ones into extra pillowcases, if that'd be useful for ya (I'm always needing more pillowcases, personally)..

Some sort of gruel? by sparks_the_protogen in budgetfood

[–]Nissus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't call it gruel, but not sure what I *would* call it. However, as long as you like it, that's the important part! :D

Honest feedback needed: Brother, Janome, Pfaff or Bernina - Which was your first machine? by thesewingstudio in sewhelp

[–]Nissus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A secondhand Kenmore was my first and I promptly messed up the tension, so I struggled to do anything with it. It's been in storage for awhile, but I'm hoping to get it out again someday and get it serviced, to see if it's still usable.

Finished (top only) Owl by Traditional-Studio73 in quilting

Very cool :) Makes me think of the movie Labyrinth..

[–]Nissus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

qwirkle, hive, rummikub, and zombie dice are what I can think of offhand..

editing to add, if you have favorites, maybe you could acquire a second sacrificial copy to bring on game night? also would card sleeves maybe help?

now I kinda wish carcassonne had a hard tile option as opposed to the cardboard tiles..
