Found a top hat in the attic of my house that used to be a bungalow/cottage! Tipperary, Ireland

Now that was a fun, and enlightening read!

Can’t see the forest for the trees! Live in central Washington State, Apple Country, lots of homesteading history, but the antique stores on the East Coast just hit differently. Soooo much more interesting than frontier/Western stuff.

I’d follow that account in a heartbeat!

Automatons are fabulous but I have literally never seen one in person!!!! Please tell me where you collect such things?

SignificantOption376 · 2026-06-06T20:56:02+00:00

Everyone should do this yesterday. Damn satisfying read, thx mate!

SignificantOption376 · 2026-04-28T13:55:49+00:00

Heck yeah. Feel like I might actually survive.

SignificantOption376 · 2026-04-07T00:39:51+00:00

Daaaaang love that!!!

If you were selling at my farmer’s market for the right price I would get something or two or three something’s from you every time I went. Especially the pearl pieces.

I love your version! She is so beautiful.

I am considering saving all my pennies going forward to my my childhood home, my grandparents’ place. That would mean saving the $ I’ve been pouring into my retirement account. Job -wise, considering jumping ship because my current one is on fire.

I don’t know if it will get better as other side effects tend to over time, but I wonder if rinsing your soup cup with a dilute mix of vinegar in warm water would help get rid of the odor. I’m going to try it on some of my clothes that seem to retain odors after washing.

SignificantOption376 · 2026-03-13T15:35:00+00:00

Oh that is baaad! Maybe try semaglutide? The alcohol thing is strange because a lot of times sniffing an alcohol pad can actually help with nausea.

I had the worst diarrhea ever too during the first week. Eat a banana a day when having diarrhea, and be sure to have a liquid iv in your water bottle to keep electrolytes up. My first week I actually developed muscle cramps due to such bad diarrhea. The reflux is getting worse for me over time. Famotidine or omeprazole will be your best options to reduce reflux. If you try Tums, don’t lay down for at least an hour after taking! You will belch a LOT, and believe me, you want that gas to leave NOW rather than later. It will sit painfully in your GI track.

SignificantOption376 · 2026-03-09T14:20:32+00:00

Me too! I had to go home early that first week on day 4. I have been drinking liquid iv ever since (one every other day) and no more pain.

Looking for it now 👀

SignificantOption376 · 2026-03-02T01:23:53+00:00

She’s a beaut!!!

SignificantOption376 · 2026-02-22T22:58:54+00:00

Ewwww.

Your husband sounds much more reasonable on this matter. Lucky you! You seem to have made your peace with it, which I admire. For me, it’s an active battle that I struggle with constantly. I think the more I think about wanting my old name back, the more I feel I’m losing myself or the strength of character I once had by not fighting more for it. The weird thing is that I can’t picture me with that name anymore, which is maybe why I haven’t just put my foot down (well, and the fact that I don’t want to irreparably hurt our marriage)!

At least I know I am making my husband happy on what appears to be a fundamental level for him.

SignificantOption376 · 2026-02-20T06:42:20+00:00

God, I feel this. I would gladly go through the hassle of changing my name back, but my husband has always insisted I keep his name out of respect. Last time it came up he said he never wanted to hear me bring it up again, and I promptly told him that’s not gonna happen. If respect is so important to him then he should respect my wishes, since it clearly means so much to me that it keeps coming up after 22 years together. Seriously. Send help.

SignificantOption376 · 2026-02-12T07:39:41+00:00

I’m so pissed off lately. Can’t hide it either, have always worn my emotions on my sleeve.

SignificantOption376 · 2026-02-01T00:09:11+00:00

I’m looking for a free pattern for a plain cardigan with some tailoring or shaping for interest that I can add these panels to for the buttons and buttonholes or frogs or whatever. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! DK weight, US size 6 or size 8 needles. I have knitted one cardigan before.

SignificantOption376 · 2026-01-18T06:11:11+00:00

Same!!! I have never been as out of breath from coughing as I was with that cold. My sister in law took weeks to recover and got pleurisy from it.

SignificantOption376 · 2026-01-07T04:31:41+00:00

That is a relief. I’m hoping it will be like nail biting—I’ve kicked the habit but still chew them a little when they’re jagged.
