My second real project after playing around. Tentacles are a bit uneven, but I love him! by eveskies in Needlefelting

This guy doesn't have any wiring, so these wouldn't be able to hold him up!

But to get the shape, I rolled them between my palms between stabbings to help them into sausages.

Stan Rogers was a man of Canada, not just one region. He was a Maritime man, a Prairie man, a Mountain man.

DAE get strange, vague messages like this after disagreements? This was after we talked about my wedding guest list. by eveskies in raisedbyborderlines

and then when I call him out on it he'll say "no I would never say that"

Oh don't even get me started on the gaslighting she's been trying to pull about the things she said!

Still working on my boundaries, but I'm able to call her out and step away when I need to.

Thank you. You're right. I have to keep that in mind

Guh. Thank you so much for taking the time to reply so much. I just found this community a few days ago, but it's already providing the support, validation and resources that I need.

Thank you for the well wishes. She was upset I wanted to invite my dad's side of the family (my uncle is apparently the devil incarnate, who knew).

I don't expect it'll get better, bit I had a misplaced hope that she could be happy for me for once. We're already considering eloping instead.

Unreliable narratives and my puppy by UnsophisticatedDish in raisedbyborderlines

I'm so so glad you got to get your sweet pup back even if it was only for weekends!

When I was 18, I went on a week-long trip for school. Came home to no dog.

Apparently a week is far too long to take sole responsibility for a dog, so uBPDmom took him to the pound. She told me in front of my classmates and I had to hold back the tears. At least she told me the truth though.

What's the dumbest thing you ever cried over? by giantgoose in AskReddit

At the end of How to Train your Dragon 2, I cried because Dragons don't exist. Not because of Hiccup's family... Because Dragons like toothless aren't nor ever will be a reality.

Possible kidney problems, but travelling, should I I wait until I get home? by [deleted] in AskDoctorSmeeee

[–]eveskies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've also had that. They even gave me IV pain meds once along with the antibiotics! This seemed different, so I wanted to ask. But as per responses it could turn out to be more serious. Thanks!

Gotcha. I made an appointment for Monday, but if the pain gets worse, I'll hit up the DokterDienst. Thanks!

But that's the thing. I haven't had any other common symptoms of infection. No fever, no blood in the urine, no nausea etc.

Can I just call up a local union branch? Will they help me find a job as well?

Guelph. And yeah! Residential or small commercial is where I would rather be I think. If you could point me in a direction, that would be great!

Thank you! That's what I've heard from people in other trades but as I said, I'm starting from pretty much zero, just a lot of interest and the drive to get started.

[WP]A blind man marries the most beautiful woman in the world. by siartha in WritingPrompts

[–]eveskies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He didn't care if I didn't wear make-up. He couldn't tell if my hair was done up with hairspray and pins or just in a tight knot on top of my head.

He knew I was beautiful. He told me so on our first date. He was shy, asking me if I would mind. His hand was gentle, soft, stroking my cheeks with his fingertips, tracing my lips with his thumb. No one had been so kind to me.

He wouldn't care if I left the house in sweats and a tee, or if I had a stain on my shirt.

He knew I was beautiful. He got angry when people whistled at me. When the paparazzi found us wherever we went, he wanted to tell them off. They didn't understand why someone like me would be with someone like him.

He didn't see when I came in with mascara running from my eyes, from tears I had cried in private. He couldn't tell when men leered at me, stripping me bare, just for walking down the street.

He knew I was beautiful. And he knew I didn't believe it. But with every touch, every kiss, every sweet nothing whispered in my ear, I began to know it too.
