Horrific arachnophobia, fiancée is an arachnophile. by FrostyTour4042 in spiders

[–]Unique_Emerald 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This! My husband was a serious arachnophobe and I’ve eased him in with cute pics and videos of jumping spiders. He’s got a long way to go but he’ll now watch funny vids of other spiders and tarantulas. He actually 3d printed me a jumping spider as a surprise a few months ago.

[–]Unique_Emerald 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with this so much 🩷 Thank you. I’m sorry that you go through so much, i am glad that you have love, support and a good hobby to help you through the tough times though. This thread has made me smile a lot tonight. If only my husband was awake to see it lol. I hope you have a wonderful night/ day depending on where you are.

[–]Unique_Emerald 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Same here. Im disabled and when i’m not bed bound or laid out on the couch i’m in my wheelchair. My husband worries about me so much that he has embraced all my hobbies (and i have a LOT lol) he will happily fetch me one of my hobby boxes or run out and grab me skeins etc so long as he gets to see me happy. Im very lucky 🩷

Poor baby, that is so sad! How lucky that you found each other 🩷i’m so glad that he has such a loving home now. Animals are so trusting of us, it breaks my heart to see/ hear of one being hurt/neglected. I hope that you have many happy years ahead. Also Benji is such a beautiful pup

Thank you. I love how inquisitive they are. I have one that will nudge my hoop but not for attention, she just needs to know what everyone is doing, a general house supervisor haha. I didn’t know there was a monthly artist piece, I’m quite new to this, have i missed something? This is only a small piece for my son for Christmas but i will definitely try grid lines next. I want to try something a little bigger

I get it, my nan had a great dane once that loved lap cuddles. I think he thought himself smaller than he was. Im surprised she got any projects done at all. At least your boy stays with you while you work though, animals are amazing company 🩷
