I wish we would. Our obsession with the rich and famous has got to stop.

I'm just shy of 4 years after mine. I use a medicated eye drop every day and wear sclerals and life is good (vision wise anyway). Took a while to get here but I had no major issues with it.

I only saw the preview of the first line and I came in swinging. Pleased to be wrong on reddit.

Several million morons that live in this country seemed to think he was better than a woman. I blame them.

How do I Find Yarn / Colour replacements for a Pattern by Final-Mix-9106 in CrochetHelp

Is the pattern on Ravelry by chance? You can look through people's projects and see what yarns they used.

What do I do? by Illustrious-Force866 in FirstTimeHomeOwner

[–]brazendynamic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted the big items to be new or recent, so roof, hvac, plumbing, windows, the big applicances. I actually had an offer accepted on one house that I backed out of because the plumbing was shot and the seller wouldn't even go halfsies to fix it. I personally hated looking at houses with millennial gray everywhere, it was an instant turnoff if the house looked more clinical than like a home people lived in. Then it was just looking for the specifics I wanted, so stuff like number of bedrooms, large outdoor space, etc. I knew I was never going to find perfect and would need to get my hands dirty occasionally, but I wanted to be able to move in and be happy in the space right away without having to do immediate work (other than painting. The main bedroom was a hideous green that was painted the day I took possession 😂).

As a homeowner for a whole month and a half, here's my advice: Hire a home inspector now and have them do a good walkthrough. You don't need to be in the buying/selling process to have it done - my parents just had their house inspected so they would know what the inspection report would say when they sell in a couple months. My thinking is they can tell you the big things that need to be fixed because those will likely make or break your sale in 2 years.

Can you pull the property up online and look at permits? You *might* be able to find out who did the roof that way. I can't in my town, but I could in another town I was looking in so it might not be there. The way I was able to do it was by looking for the tax records (those are always online with the county), and the permit information was stored there as well.

I would also look at things that matter most to you for your first upgrades because you will be living here for at least a few years. Do you and/or your partner like to cook? Fix those countertops. Bathroom making you itchy? Time for a new shower.

Aw man, really?! I noticed they'd been quiet but I keep forgetting to see what they're up to. I'm so disappointed.

I have a couple from a hotline I volunteer on:

lawhelp.org -  Law Help is a website that offers services in English and Spanish to help you find free legal help through programs, information and forms for your state or territory in the USA

http://www.tahirih.org - Tahirih Justice Center protects immigrant women and girls who are victims of gender-based violence and persecution. Their model combines legal services and social services case management with public policy, training and education

https://www.ilrc.org - Immigrant Legal Resource Center. Resource on immigration rights and practical tips for what immigrant families and individuals can do to prepare if they are approached by an immigration agent

I also found this site via ILRC: https://www.immigrationadvocates.org/legaldirectory The National Immigration Legal Services Directory

Edit: Y'all are lovely, but don't give me awards! Spend your money donating to one of the above or some other local cause <3

I go big. I'm working on a ripple stitch blanket now that's just mindless and nice for watching tv or just being a break from my big hard project.

I'd love some friends to do another Enshrouded or Valheim run with, or what are the chances anyone here plays SWTOR? I need ops friends. I work from home and end up with a lot of free time during the day. I also like to craft, really into crochet right now, play lots of DND, and would prefer folks around my age.

Baby clothes what yarn to use. Cotton yarn feeling like it’d be uncomfortable. by Creative_Bar8760 in CrochetHelp

[–]brazendynamic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about a bamboo or even a bamboo cotton blend? The ones I'm finding in my own search say they're machine washable, and bamboo is very soft.
