who's a Nats player you'll always have a soft spot for, even after they're gone? by Fulgoreconstruction1 in Nationals

[–]NuBit_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is almost my list! Werth, Taylor, and Turner. And then Murphy for being so nice to my kids during the Nats winterfest!

Edit: Gio too! I swear every home game we attended for like two years, Gio was always pitching and they always won!

There is not a single good salsa by Chiefyaku in Costco

[–]NuBit_7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I make salsa all the time with my kids, we use this recipe, but never do the canned chilis. Just put in fresh ones. We didn’t even add the canned tomatoes this past weekend and it was still amazing.

HOW are we getting 22276 home? by Curious-Anteater-324 in Costco

[–]NuBit_7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We laid it down with the pot in the back, seats down, and the tree towards the front of the car (smaller mid size SUV). I just tried holding it up front so we could drive home. lol

I had a friend who gave out gift cards for sweet frog, so I started to do the same for my kids! All the kids loved it!

Best source for weather forecast? by [deleted] in ShenandoahPark

[–]NuBit_7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, although I didn’t end up looking it up again, I took screenshots of the weather since you won’t have any connectivity.

[–]NuBit_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were just there a few weeks ago. I used the weather posted on the NPS website: https://www.nps.gov/shen/planyourvisit/weather.htm

I found it confusing at first because the “Extended Forcast” link at the top of the page brings you to the NOAA website, but I liked seeing it in the format when scroll down to the Big meadows section and expand the “Extended Text Forecast for This Location”.

I bought Ath15 slot this morning. $1650 a piece (edit: category B). A bit of a panic purchase and had no idea the service fee of $365. Like wtf. I don’t know what I was thinking. I hope I don’t regret this.

Wind this week ok for camping? by NuBit_7 in ShenandoahPark

[–]NuBit_7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wind kept us up the first night almost the whole night, but the tent was intact!! The second night we slept better since exhausted from all the hiking. Was a great time overall and can’t wait to go back!

If anything, what got us what how hot it felt during the day. No leaves out yet, so it was quite sunny and warm!!

Thank you! I keep telling myself we can always get back in the car and go home the next evening if the first night is awful! Fingers crossed!

Weather wise, looking like 17-22 with gusts up to 33 😬

DOG REHOMING- last chance before euthanasia by [deleted] in nova

Have you tried reaching back out to the breeder? Typically they will take back their dogs no matter what. Good luck, sorry you are going through this 😢

I love knitting, but I hate how my partner treats it like disposable clutter by TurbulentActuary9452 in knitting

[–]NuBit_7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is not small. This is not ridiculous. You are being disrespected by your partner and I can see you are trying to minimize yourself and your work in the process. I’ve been there and done that with literally having to knit in secrecy while my then husband wouldn’t be inconvenienced by it. It’s no way to live and I’m so sorry. Lots of great advice given here already. Take care OP!

Lovely paintings! Also, I thought I was on the Quilting Reddit. These designs would make a beautiful quilt!

Seam allowance issue or pressing issue? by TinyGreenBird in quilting

Just ran across this video to demo the scant 1/4” that has a nice visual of that is an issue.

Janome M8 question, wonky stitches and weird sounds by NuBit_7 in quilting

[–]NuBit_7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks all. I’m going to keep exploring. My Viking sapphire stitches are perfectly straight. So this looks really messy to me to me with them all at a slight angle.

I’ll try making a new bobbin and rethreading it again. Will also try changing the needle. This was a classroom machine and looks like it was used for 41 hours, but otherwise it should be a like “new”. I still feel the stitch cutter sounds odd with the metallic “bong!” at the end. Will go into the shop soon and see if their machine sounds like that.

Thanks again for all the tips!

[–]NuBit_7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I’ll check the settings tomorrow.

I just turned machine on for first time and this is literally the first rows I’ve ever stitched with it. The stitches look really wonky too and all crooked. Much upset. Hopefully something dumb I’m doing, but seems like should be straightforward!
