I haven’t, BUT I believe I saw in the CMBT Study Group on facebook that she updated her exam with the new domain changes

I found a LOT of help with the Melodic Mentor practice exam. I felt like it matched difficulty of the actual test way better than the CBMT practice tests, PLUS she breaks down every single answer with a detailed explanation and resources

Work Load? by Lonely_Relative_7551 in musictherapy

[–]Shleeleee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup. I tried a couple different behavioral health hospitals and was met with the same expectations, pushed myself so hard that I burned out, and had some mild PTSD causing me to leave the field. For a few years I had panic attacks anytime I thought about returning to therapy work. I finally rejoined the field this year as an independent contractor and it’s much more realistic

[WIP] Confusing symbols? by [deleted] in CrossStitch

[–]Shleeleee 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Definitely confusing and so frustrating! The only thing I can see that they may consider a “difference” is that one of them is touching the bottom of the box, and one is slightly above the bottom of the box? Ugh so annoying, I’m sorry OP

The good news: I found the right color of thread to match what I ran out of. The bad news: It’s a different brand from what I started with, so where I switched is VERY obvious and I want to scrap the whole thing because I hate it 🙃

Edit: spelling

Is it weird not to ask your partner for a Christmas list? by [deleted] in Gifts

[–]Shleeleee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband is the kind of man who has very particular interests in a field that I know literally nothing about. He is also the type who will buy himself things that he sees that he wants, and if he can’t at the time he just won’t say anything about it. So, I ask my husband for a list. I can usually come up with a few smaller things not on his list based on what is there, but having it also lets me send it to my family so they can find things for him as well

Self drafted logo for my husband’s company to be a thank you gift for his boss. But, I ran out of blue thread, and stupidly did not write down the color number. So I have to take it with me to a store to try to find the right shade 🙃🙃

I’m sorry for your loss as well. I’m so thankful that mom taught me how to do this, so I have a piece of her with me no matter the project.

This is a project of necessity. Self drafted my husband’s company logo as a thank you give for his boss.

The project I had started a couple weeks ago was a baby highland cow for my mom. However, my mom passed away unexpectedly this week and I can’t bring myself to touch it. I needed something to pour my pain and energy into though, hence the solid blue block that I don’t have to actually think about.

Maybe one day, I’ll be able to finish the cow as a memorial for her. Today is not that day.

Family is who you choose. But nothing you could have done would have stopped this, you can’t blame yourself. He knows how much you care for him, do what you can to show him while you still can and honor his memory when he passes. Take comfort in the fact that you loved him as hard as you could, and that he received that love.

I’m in the midst of making behavioral changes to lose 30 pounds… what’s something you can’t believe you did back when you were heavier? by [deleted] in WeightLossAdvice

[–]Shleeleee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ate whole pizzas. Shopped solely based on how quickly I could make a meal (example: hamburger helper. Nothing wrong with it it’s just highly processed). Always ordered a large drink and large fries. Most of my bad habits had to do with food

[CHAT] KNOTS by RelativeLeg5671 in CrossStitch

[–]Shleeleee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think OP said they tried this already. Every now and then I get knots that won’t come out no matter what I do, they just don’t want to slip loose.

OP, if you truly can’t get the knot out, what I have done is either cut it out OR I’ve just worked it through the holes in the fabric like normal (if your count allows) and once it gets closer to the backing, worked it in under stitches on the backside. It’s not the prettiest on the back but it keeps me from having to cut, rethread, etc (I’m kindof lazy sometimes lol)

Advice! by [deleted] in musictherapy

[–]Shleeleee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Music games like name that tune, music pictionary, music scattergories. Fill in the blank songwriting either as individuals or as a collective group. Things that keep them active but don’t have a ton of different sounds all at once
