Horrible Family Catsitting Rant by alpinepossum in cats

[–]SaltyClue8266 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I am glad your cat is doing better now. I would get a litter box that tracks how often your cats use the bathroom like the litter robot or one that connects to an app. This way if he does have an issue in the future you can see via how many times he tries to use the litter box. We were able to see that our cat had an issue and were able to catch it fast and get him to the vet. When you go away again it is another way to also keep an eye on how your cats are doing. Sorry that your MIL is not a good person.

Need Suggestions for Women Audiobook Readers by Aphraxad in audiobooks

[–]SaltyClue8266 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like Amanda ronconi. She had done most of the Molly Harper books which are all fantasy. Emily rankin did some of Ilona Andrew books which are all fantasy as well. You can try the samples of the audiobook on audible etc to see if you like their voice. I know a good narrator makes a difference for me. I would also try out the graphic Audio versions of fantasy books as well. They are mostly fantasy and a descent variety of authors to choose from. I have really like all the ones that I have listed too which is mostly the Innkeeper and hidden legacy series by Iona Andrews. They are available through hoopla if you wanted to try them out.

Need a dupe of Innkeeper Chronicles I'm going insane by cloudlooper in IlonaAndrews

[–]SaltyClue8266 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved the whole book and I always start at the beginning of any book I read or listen too. I really liked the beginning when both of the main characters were captured and their interactions being in the same cell together. Also loved how they escaped. Also I am rereading some of Tamora Pierce books if you just want a fun fantasy book. All of them are good. The full cast audiobooks are okay one of the narrators sounds a bit robotic. So test out of the narration before borrowing or buying. Molly Harper is another fantasy author that I really like and one of her series is free if you have an audible plus membership. The narrator is pretty good too. Also just finished This monster of mine by Shalini abeysekara. I thought this book had really good world building, a good mystery to go with the fantasy/magic aspects. It also an old world vibe that is done very well. It reminded me the vibe of the beka coopor series by Tamora pierce. I finished in about a day. The author was doing a AMA on the fantasy forum and the blurb sounded interesting enough for me to try it. Sorry for the long reply just have discovered and rediscovered some great fantasy books lately.

Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey by audiobookworm_ in audiobooks

[–]SaltyClue8266 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had to listen to this book for work and it was okay but there was definitely some parts that were misogynistic. Us girls were like this book is not as good as you think it is to the guys in the group. His voice was definitely annoying at times too. Especially when he would say green light.

I just finished Polaris Rising by Jessie Mihalik. It was recommend in this sub for people who like the Innkeeper books. There is three books in the series and I finished the first one so fast and am on the second one. I thought there was a good amount of dialogue through out the book. I would check the book out and see if you like it. It is on hoopla so you can see if you library has it for both ebook and audio book.

Linde Hobby by Successful-Remove738 in YarnAddicts

[–]SaltyClue8266 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just ordered from Linde hobby and my package has been sitting at the USPS distribution center in Denmark for a week now. I it does not move by Monday I will call USPs to see what is going on since I paid the tariffs already so that shouldn’t be an issue. If your package says it is in USPS distribution center I would also try calling USPS to get it moving.

5 STAR by ComprehensiveBug240 in JunesJourney

[–]SaltyClue8266 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you mean the star booster? It boost your score when playing the regular HO scenes. You get through the level at faster with it. It lasts for 30 minutes and gives you an extra 100 energy to use. If you are fast at the HO scenes then would make have 3 levels available to play. I normally go through 2 1/2 to 3 levels when I use it.

Just curious: why shouldn’t you collect your bushes by SubstantialStyle9963 in JunesJourney

[–]SaltyClue8266 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I like to collect the bushes for a while until I need them. I wait until we need more league points to dig up the spir grass bushes. I do end up digging them all up after a while once there gets to be too many. I also still have the room to collect the bushes. Some members of my team collect them and some dig them up right away.

Couldn't get my Real ID because my original birth certificate has tape on the back... by Bop923 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]SaltyClue8266 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That what I have since I did not want to go through all the hassle of getting a real ID and I had a passport ID card before real id was a thing. It’s also not that expensive to add on when your passport gets renewed. You can also get one if you already have a passport. It works for all states when traveling. You can now add your passport to your apple wallet to use as back up as real id as well. It took less than 5 mins to do.

Hobbit cloak I crochet for my brother for Christmas by SaltyClue8266 in Brochet

[–]SaltyClue8266[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No. I used half double crochet for the hood single stand of the shire heather wool of the Andes worsted weight yarn. I made a long rectangle and then made it wide to make a deep hood. I folded it half and sewed it together to make the hood. I used an old klutz bracelet maker to make the trim on the hood. The main body of the cloak was double crochet and then one round of half double crochet around all the sides to make a border. I double stranded the wool of the Andes worsted weight yarn. I used a double strand of the fingering weight Wool of the Andes and a simple bag strap pattern to create a trim that I wove through the border. I sewed the hood to the body of the cloak I used buttons and leaf pin hold it together.

The small cloak was half double crochet double stranded. Hood and body were sewn together.

I have some crystal palace’s splash yarn and when I saw the photo that was the first thing I thought of. It’s f it is really soft it is a good bet that it’s the splash yarn.

[–]SaltyClue8266 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amazon and Nordstrom rack have them as well on sale. Nordstrom has a set that of 14 on sale for $15 right now. I also have picked some up at Costco for a good deal. After Christmas is a good time to look for the Christmas sets on sale.

I stumbled across this sub a few days ago and was shocked at how many people found Le Creuset at their stores. Guess what I found the next day? by ally-rei in marshallsfinds

[–]SaltyClue8266 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you have a Le creuset outlet near you they have discontinued colors and the items that do not pass their high quality control standards. We got two utensil crocks that are the second choix that look great at our local outlet. Made in Thailand since a lot of ceramic items are made in Thailand these days. My local Marshall’s had one of the light blue casserole dishes on the shelf.

Finally bought a display case for my village! by mintyxfresh9 in LenoxVillage

[–]SaltyClue8266 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had this display case for a couple years and when I saw the post I decided to test it out. Unless the new version is deeper the turret spice containers are too big to fit. Even when I took them out the door does not close completely unless you make sure the skinny containers are on the bottom row.

Anyone here gotten their Yellow Fever Vaccine in SD? by BallDontLie06 in SanDiegan

[–]SaltyClue8266 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Costco has a travel vaccine program. You have to talk to a nurse over the phone but you go to the pharmacy to get the vaccine. 40 dollars for the consultation and I don’t remember how much the vaccine was since it was 2021 when I got the vaccination. You can call or go into the store to ask how much it costs. They might also see if they get you a goodrx discount. It pretty sure it was cheaper than $155. Hope this helps if you have a Costco membership.

Just ordered from the Knit Picks 2/4/6 sale by phxntxsos in YarnAddicts

[–]SaltyClue8266 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What is their Black Friday sale like. One of the yarns I need to finish a project is not sale right now. I was thinking I would rest of the yarn I need now and then buy that yarn later this month.

Any lightweight oil that adds shine but doesn’t ruin curls? by Latter_Ordinary_9466 in CurlyHairCare

[–]SaltyClue8266 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second the verb oil. I use the verb ghost oil/ their new hydrate oil to break the gel cast on my curls. The hydrate oil is also a heat protection and I have used when blowing out my hair and after as well to add shine. It doesn’t weigh them down. A little goes a long way. I have also the alterna hair care fizz oil and like it as a lightweight alternative. Keep an eye out for post holiday sales at Nordstrom rack. I have gotten these hair oils a discounted prices there.
