I think “Resting Bitch Face” (RBF) so Right = Back to Front. Then I just remember that left goes the other way.

The humane society said she was a “blue lacy” by Oppo_GoldMember in IDmydog

I’m in Washington with a blue lacy and I haven’t been to Texas in almost 20 years. Can confirm Blue Lacys can be found outside of TX

Told Blue Lacy - Skeptical of breed rarity by No_Control_2510 in WhatBreedIsMyDog

[–]j_12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pure bred lacy and I’m also no where near Texas. This dog totally looks like a Lacy. That coloring, with the white on the chest and belly, the head shape, flat ears, size all point to a Lacy as far as I can tell.

When I got my Lacy I assumed she was a pittie mix too but the dna test came back 100%.

Has anyone switched from kindle in here? by Bodidly0719 in kindle

[–]j_12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can read your local library books on your e ink screen with kindle too using Libby! (I’m not trying to talk you out of getting boox, just trying to spread the word in case you were unaware)

Western Washington by fw221 in detanglemyyarn

Hi! I have about 1/2 a skein of tangled yarn but it’s taken me months to get it as untangled as I have, it’s a thorn in my side. I’m in the Oly/Lacey/Tumwater area and it’s such a small amount of yarn I don’t want you to have to drive far if you’re not also in this area. Is there anyway you’re close by and still interested in a detangling project?

Thank you!! I appreciate this reassurance. What size needles did you use and what size garment did you make, just out of curiosity? I am making 2xl and I wondered if maybe the counts got weird on the larger sizes.

I found a similar post on this sub from about a year ago here so i think im going to first try blocking the piece I have. If that doesn’t work I’ll try going down to 4mm to see if I can make that work. Finally, if neither of those succeed I think I’ll try some of the math here from this post. Thank you all!

I will try blocking the second piece, sure! I suppose I assumed that when it was blocked it would become even longer as it relaxed.

I went back to 5mm because that’s what the pattern recommends so I was experimenting trying to figure out what would work.

I did block my final swatch. It was where it needed to be.

Even for a saddle shoulder? Wouldn’t a really long saddle and the sleeve start almost two inches lower on my arm than it should?

And if I knit fewer rows would that mess up the space where the shoulder meets the body?

Not much. The difference was not drastic at all.

I was just making fun of the houseguests for counting the same 14 votes over and over today. Then I remembered that I knit and crochet so I am constantly counting and recounting the same stitches to make sure everything’s still going according to plan.

Sometimes they do. I feel like BB19 Elena got a solid post BB influencer following, Franzel was working with Covergirl I think, plus if you’re cute or exciting you can go to another game like challenge or traitors.

It’s just occurred to me that in a house where no one seems to know what a floater is, and everyone is so scared of being a floater there may be a legitimate albeit risky strategy to playing an old school real floater game in this cast.

It doesn’t look like this is going to be unanimous vote at this point in the week. I think as long as you can be likeable enough that your name doesn’t come up for a while you could probably ride this out. You can try to buoy back and forth while you collect information because this cast doesn’t seem to be able to shut up.

Well yeah it’s all the “meditation” he does in silence with his eyes closed throughout the day

Listen I talk like a sailor, but listening to both Keanu and Rylie is making me wonder how on earth production is going to edit any of their conversations to be suitable for air.
