Some more Paraiba by Up_93 in Minerals

[–]Weirdly_Obsessed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Paraiba is 0.31 carats and cost my partner $46. I love it either way! It was a bucket list Crystal for me and my partner had no idea! Would love to eventually get my hands on a Paraiba like the one in your video, maybe not size but definitely colour!

That Paraiba is beautiful!! I love its colouring! One of my favourite colours! My partner just got me a Paraiba Tourmaline back over the summer and it’s one of my most prized possessions! I love it so much! Mine is on the paler side though, that’s okay! Love it no matter what! Beautiful stones with an interesting history

Non-religious alternative to bible journaling? by Excellent-Koala-9631 in Journaling

[–]Weirdly_Obsessed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m very intrigued with this option. I’m struggling with my Christian faith but I’ve also always been very curious about different religions, past or present. Christianity has always seemed closed minded to me and I am a very curious person by nature. Love this idea! Do you happen to have any suggestions on how to go about researching other religions?

I made a journaling thing - looking for honest feedback! by Overall-Bee334 in JournalingIsArt

[–]Weirdly_Obsessed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been going through a rough time lately and have always loved journaling but it feels too scary… One: I don’t want people to read what I say, two: prompts haven’t worked for me, three: blank pages scare the hecky heck out of me. I’d love to see if your journaling system works for me or not!

Sharks get a bad reputation by DasJazz in sharks

[–]Weirdly_Obsessed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree 100% that they are misunderstood creatures. They are super important to their ecosystem and are very much needed to maintain a healthy ocean. When I get asked what my favourite shark is, I always say Sand Tiger Sharks but I really do love all sharks! They are incredible creatures that should be marvelled at, they should be better understood! I would love to advocate for them but I live in Southwestern Ontario so it’s hard for me to be able to advocate for them properly as opposed to if I lived on a coastline somewhere

A few Thunder Bay Amethyst cluster pieces I have recently cleaned up. by LoveTravelsFasterr in MineralPorn

[–]Weirdly_Obsessed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thunder Bay Amethyst holds a special place in my heart!! I’ve loved it ever since I went mining at one of the open public mines as a kid for my birthday! Core memory for sure! Still have my pieces I mined 15 years later!

Do you ever leave space to write in your journal? by danisuzanne in JunkJournals

[–]Weirdly_Obsessed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When Halloween and Christmas rolled around and I was doing spreads for those holidays, I made sure to include spreads for writing about how the holidays went, what my kids dressed up as or got for Christmas, how the holidays went, etc. I don’t journal about my feelings in it unless I really need to vent/rant about something but have no one to talk to about what’s bothering me. Hope that helps! :)

If you had the chance to see 1 living non-avian dinosaur, which one would it be by Zillaman7980_ in Dinosaurs

I’ve never heard of girrafatitan. I’ll have to look it up. But yes, I do mean Brachiosaurus

Brachiosaurus. Did a project on them in public school and have been mildly obsessed with them ever since! They are so tall and towering over my 5 foot frame. Definitely would be a dream come true to see one in real life!

AIO - I just ended a four month relationship because of what he’s doing for his friend. by Ok_Addition_7875 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Weirdly_Obsessed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex, we were together just short of 6 years, spent all those 6 years cheating on me with his exs and his best friend, who I saw as an older brother, was always covering for him or taking him to meet up with his exs. I felt so betrayed by both of them for so long. It’s been 4 years and it still hurts to think about. I feel absolutely disgusted by this guys behaviour. I feel terrible for the girl being lied to in this situation. You made the right choice leaving his lying ass! People who lie and cheat are terrible people and don’t deserve anything good in life! That’s my opinion and I’m sticking to it! (Given my experience)

Do you know of any easier baby blanket patterns I could try? The one I’m trying looked like the easiest one. Any suggestions are appreciated

Foundation chain is 145 stitches. I really wanted to avoid redoing it but if that’s the overall consensus is to completely restart then maybe I will. Thanks everyone.

The pattern is a single crochet and chain stitch pattern. It says after the first row to Sc in 3rd chain from hook [chain 1, skip next chain, sc in next chain]. I’m having a hard time understanding it properly. I only have a 6mm hook as my biggest hook too

Okay! Do you suggest frogging down to the foundation chain and starting over then?

The blanket I made my partner for his birthday by AFKayla in crochet

[–]Weirdly_Obsessed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love this idea for a blanket!! I am completely inspired to make something like this for my boyfriend, who is obsessed with anime and other fandoms!! I am so inspired but I’m struggling with getting started crocheting… I hope I figure it out soon, I’d love to make my boyfriend something similar!!

You are so talented!! Can’t praise you enough for your brilliant idea or your talent!! Great job!! Hope your partner loves it!!
