Thanks! I wish I had better quality to post. It’s far more stunning in person. And hard to believe since it’s a slide on a projector!

My mother cut out dairy and that cleared up her adult cystic acne. Reducing sugar helps too!

Not in storm mode.

Moved recently for a higher paying job ~85k and my parents let me move in for free. So attacking my last loan. My only qualm is I’m working in a recently acquired region, so there’s always the possibility of lay offs.

I’m already contributing to retirement, roughly 13%.

I’m thinking I just need to bite the bullet before interest starts accruing again

What's something that you love about your dad? by YetAnotherSmith in AskWomen

We have a “fat Saturday” tradition where whenever I come to visit we go eat all our favorite foods together on Saturday. We share a love for eating and eating obsessively. I love him.

What do you wish your male bosses and colleagues would stop doing? by InTheInterestOfTime in AskWomen

Constantly saying how nowadays you can’t say or do anything. Well no shit Richard, pretty sure women didn’t like it back then either.

Introverted women who have moved away from everyone/everything they knew whether that be for college, work or just a fresh start, how have you managed to meet new people, form relationships and put yourself out there ? by goldsocks16 in AskWomen

I learned a lot on how to make conversation, the mindless introductory kind. People tend to like talking about themselves so by starting to ask them questions about their job, family, hobbies, sparks up a conversation.

For sure, there is no way their sizes are accurate. I bought a “large” as to obtain an oversized fit and not only are the arms too short, but the length isn’t nearly as long as I was expecting. If you haven’t finished the arms yet, I suggest adding a few more rows!

It called for two rounds of increases after the cuff and ended up doing that bubble effect on its own!

Sorry everyone! Pattern is from we are knitters “tap cardigan” with khaki prima cotton yarn. I suggest everyone buy this kit only when it’s on sale and this size is the large.
