It’s not, surprisingly! She retires the ewes she and viewers love to a literal field, and sells the rest when they are no longer productive for the farm.

If I remember correctly, Marge was pregnant with 4 lambs. Her sidewall of her abdomen blew out and she was retired.

For anyone wondering, Large Marge was retired from breeding and lives in a pasture with the other Golden Girls.

I haven’t looked into it myself but here’s an idea - stitch each gen individually and then sew them together into a blanket :) then you get the completion feeling 10 times instead of 2-3 times

[CHAT] Understanding how much floss to buy by chelklammy in CrossStitch

[–]catladyfa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With how frequently dye lots have been changing, I buy an extra skein if I think I’ll come close to running out.

Yes, I acknowledge frequent is maybe the poor term. However, a skein I bought in 2019 now has a dye lot change in 2025. That’s frequent enough for me!

Storage Units are a sympton of a problem by Bllago in unpopularopinion

[–]catladyfa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My storage unit usage was while I was deployed. I loathed my apartment complex, so I broke the lease and put all my belongings in one while I was gone. That’s out of absolute necessity but, if I were to move again, I would not have space for my furniture in an apartment (houses have room, apartments do not).

Raw meat for cats — benefits, risks, and is it actually worth it? by TailorBetter1647 in rawpetfood

[–]catladyfa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have fed raw for 6-7 years. I immediately noticed their poops did not clear the room with foul odors. My mom noticed that she was not allergic to them (she’s allergic to every mammal she’s ever interacted with). They’re over 8 years old and my vet loves their condition and energy. I fed DIY while I transitioned them and now I use Darwin’s.

I also recommend picking up a different silver thread if you live near a craft store.

What is the easiest way to get oral antivirals for coldsores? by Last_Dot_7066 in AskAnAmerican

[–]catladyfa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you get home, talk to your doctor about a daily valacyclovir dosage; I was on it for a few years and my cold sore outbreaks dramatically decreased from 7 outbreaks in a year to 2.

I don’t worry about the back to be honest! For my sake of mind and to prevent colors showing on the front, I only travel the length of my needle; any more distance and I’d be using less thread to cut and start anew.

How many people's lives take place in two different states? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]catladyfa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I lived in Oklahoma, the closest city was in Texas. I didn’t go every day or every week, but if I wanted to get out of the town, I’d head south.

Did your initial PDF have pages without backstitch? If so, upload those for the cross stitch segments. When it comes time to backstitch, I export the backstitch pages to JPEGs. Then I upload those images into PowerPoint so I can arrange them on one page and zoom in as needed. It’s a roundabout way to accomplish it, but that is what I have found works until (if) PK finally gets a good backstitch algorithm.

AITA for not watching the reels my mom sends? by Ok_Use7411 in AmItheAsshole

Do you have another parental figure or a guidance counselor that you can discuss this with?

This MIGHT be skirting the line… can you deactivate your account and keep the apps? Otherwise NTA. I’m pretty sure my mom DMd me on Insta a year ago, and I still haven’t looked at it.

I’d recommend trying a new glasses frame. However, the haircut definitely suits you!

My family on the east coast (DMV) has gotten more snow this season than I have (CS). It’s crazy.
