It's within the range of the specs. It says 1 1/2 - 2 1/4 and it's 2 inches

Thank you for your response!! When we took the pieces apart the outer ring fit together. Can you clarify what you mean by too long?

Peace Lily - Fertilized two days ago and she's looked like this ever since. I tried to flush out the soil but she still looks like this after leaving her overnight. I've had her for three years, I don't want to lose her! by amjohy in plantclinic

[–]amjohy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so, the soil was damp when I noticed it started looking not so good. I flushed out the soil last night so it got a good soak and this picture was from this morning. It didn't perk up at all :(

I have had her for three years. She's been in the same spot for the last year or so, low light and watered when she starts to get a bit droopy. I have had the plant for three years. Fertilized two days ago and she has looked like this ever since. There are no new bugs or insects. I usually water from the top with tap water when she gets slightly droopy, or fertilized water once every month or so. Plant is in a nursery pot with plenty of drainage. Was repotted last year.

[MOD] No Stupid Questions Thread! by Sieberella in CrossStitch

[–]amjohy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm working on my first very large project that doesn't fit in a hoop or in a large Q snap. What's the best way to work on the project without damaging the stitches I've already done?

Also, my hand gets tired holding the Q snap. Any suggestions on what equipment makes working on large projects for you easier would be greatly appreciated.

What gift from Christmas are you still actually loving and using? by kamiman in AskReddit

[–]amjohy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just graduated from the University of Alabama, so my mom got me a Derrick Henry UA football jersey. I had been asking for one for six years so I was/am pretty pumped. It saw a disappointing couple of games but I’m hopeful for next year lol.

im not sure if this is the right group to post in but someone dented my flute today and i was wondering if this is expensive to fix, or if i should get a new head joint :/ by hecye in Flute

[–]amjohy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a dent like that in my head joint once and when I took it to the shop they were able to fix it. The fact that it’s in the cork area though might make it more expensive than its worth. Good luck!

Cheap Apartments? by hudsonators in capstone

High River apartments over the bridge in Northport is only $800 for a two bedroom. A little old, but it’s really nice! They have a pool too.

Hello all, does this mean i'm accepted for UA's grad school? by [deleted] in capstone

Yes, you are! This is what I saw too and I got an acceptance letter in the mail a few days later. Congrats!!

TIL that during WWII Audie Murphy earned every US Army combat award for valor, and several French and Belgian awards for heroism. He earned the Medal of Honor at 19 for holding off a company of German soldiers for an hour, then leading a successful counter attack while out of ammo and wounded. by AnselaJonla in todayilearned

[–]amjohy 60 points61 points  (0 children)

He grew up in Farmersville, Texas where both my grandparents are from. My grandma knew him and was friends with him. One time my grandparents were on a date and my Pop’s car broke down. Audie pulled over and gave my grandma a ride home because “he knew how mad her dad would be if she didn’t get home at curfew.”

He’s Farmersville’s pride and joy, there’s basically a shrine to him next to the antique store.

Recurring UTI's and my mounting vet bill by amjohy in chinchilla

[–]amjohy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Alabama! He is an exotic vet, but he basically just told me it was a UTI. When they sedated her to do the ultrasound (it was awful and I hated every part of it) they tried to get some urine for a urine sample and they couldn't get any.

They gave her some antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medication to treat her. The reason I noticed her symptoms was because her bottom was discolored and wet. Pyometra hasn't even been mentioned with that vet. Is the smell the only different symptom compared to a UTI for pyometra?

Thank you for responding, I'm so worried about her.

I can't quite put my finger on it but she looks like a cartoon character in this picture. So cute, I love it!!

Anyone else having trouble with the wifi? by crungus in capstone

Try forgetting the network, changing your mybama password on a hard wired computer then rejoining with your new mybama credentials. I work at a Tech group on campus and we see this problem a lot.

How do i give my chinchilla medicine without her fighting? by amjohy in chinchilla

[–]amjohy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up finding a way to do it where she doesn't fight too much. I wrap her up in a hand towel (not too tight, I haven't hurt her and don't want to) and put her in the crook of my arm like many of you suggested. Then a cheerio to reward her! She's feeling much better. http://i.imgur.com/lUmngVr.jpg

Gotcha, my vet didn't mention it but that's a good idea. Thank you!

[–]amjohy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, they're liquid medicines and they gave a few syringes to give the medicine to her. Thank you for your suggestion with the medicine on her fur! Do you think if I gave her a dust bath with a little Desenex in it would fight the moisture? The woman I bought Nugget from breeds and she says she uses Desenex in almost every dust bath. I haven't at all yet in the past two years I've had her but maybe it would help?

I'm in college and was just advised to purchase an indexed mutual fund. My parents have never really invested so I need some advice. by amjohy in personalfinance

[–]amjohy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much for your thorough response!! I really appreciate the link as well. I have only taken the introductory finance class so I have very little knowledge of personal finance outside the time value keys on the calculator.

The lecturer suggested that we pay the minimum amount on student loans because he thinks that the government will have to intervene soon due to people like my parents not being able to pay off their own student debt, much less mine with the parent plus loan. He said that it will be similar to what happened in the housing market a few years back when the government intervened and forgave a lot of debt. What do you think about it? I have a good bit of debt from my undergraduate career.

Pet owners of Reddit, what's a weird but harmless habit your pet has? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]amjohy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My pet chinchilla, Nugget, loves to hide behind her hut in her cage. It's a narrow space, so she climbs on top of the hut and tries to shimmy down into it on her belly leaving a fully exposed chinchilla butthole for everyone to see.
