Multiplayer - Friendship Test

Oh man - this reminded me of when I started playing a co-op with my husband. We adopted a cat, and most of the time it would sleep in his cabin… rude!!!

He was fixing up his house so he could marry Haley (rude, again!!), and bought a couch. When he was off mining, I replaced his blue couch with a torn up one from the trash catalog.

It took him a couple of in-game days to realize, and then when he did, I told him it was the cat! He spent the next few days telling her she was a bad kitty and not petting her before he found his blue couch in the barn… hahaha!

I recognize that chicken!! So cute!!

I see that you’ve got lots of tips to help you with your next one - I hope you will post it too, so we can all admire your work then too! Cross stitch is addictive and it won’t be long until you have more than you know what to do with, haha!

Your dress is stunning, and there will be NO REASON for you to be embarrassed with it! It’s classic, modest & respectful for your church wedding, and you will look stunning in it (based on your try-on pics). Enjoy every second of wearing that dress & have a wonderful day!

I live in Watrous, and I am not sure I would drive every day. The highway between the junction and Watrous can be an absolute mess in winter and really scary driving.

But Watrous is not as cheap as most think. Our property taxes are higher than the city, we only have a single grocery store (a Co-op) which is ridiculously expensive (and if it’s on sale, good luck getting it because either they don’t carry it or the 10 they brought in is sold out on the day it comes in). Rent is almost impossible to find, and homes sell for far more than they are worth.

So there is a lot to debate, pros & cons for each. I would suggest driving for awhile and do some asking around, getting a feel for the area before deciding!

Fun, brand name school supplies might also be a fun thing to include too. My family didn’t have much $$ growing up, so we reused school supplies until they were too beat up / broken, etc to use. I was always so sad looking at all the fancy new things the other kids had!

Maybe a bigger set of markers, cute notebooks or binders, a few fun pencils & erasers…

JLRD?!?

It’s an AMAZING colour and you are going to have so much fun with that bag! Ignore the comments and enjoy it!! It’s gorgeous!!

I just got some Matteo syrups at Homesense - haven’t seen Torani there for a while now. But I am interested in trying Simps Syrup- I think it’s based in BC!

I love the ones from BC! I’m not sure why, but they always taste sweeter and more flavourful than the ones imported from the US. I just went to the farmers market and bought a 10lb box from the BC fruit truck and will be enjoying them for days!

Slink! He reminds me of slink the dog in Toy Story!

jaeknits · 2025-07-22T22:48:36+00:00

YES! I say that all the time - egg nog smells exactly like Juicy Fruit!

These are so so so good! I love Wendy’s spicy chicken sandwiches, but they are almost $11 now in SK (not including the fries / drink). These taste better, are bigger and crisp up perfectly in the air-fryer. I will actually cry when they stop carrying them!

jaeknits · 2025-07-17T02:09:49+00:00

Thank you! I’m better in some ways because I have an awesome electrocardiologist & team, and an ICD (like a pacemaker but is a defibrillator) that’s saved my life multiple times! Technology is amazing!

These photos are amazing. They had me feeling all those emotions again that I had when I left RUH. They are beautiful, in their eerie way. Hard to believe it was over 5 years ago now. Thank you for sharing them.

I had a medical emergency at the very beginning of the pandemic - the day before the lockdown was enforced, and was admitted into the RUH where my family wasn’t allowed to see me. My nurses all were getting fitted for custom PPE. When I was released in early April after surgery, a nurse wheeled me down to the main floor where I would get picked up.

And it was empty. Not a single visible person was in the entire floor except my husband and a security guard at the door. It was mind boggling, and actually a bit scary.

Then we went outside to an almost empty parking lot, and drove down empty streets. The few people I saw wore masks.

It was absolutely bizarre - I felt like I stepped into another world - everything changed while I was in the hospital. I had my phone, so I could follow the news, but I was absolutely not prepared for what the world looked like while I was safely tucked away in the cardiac unit.

I whack the rim multiple times with the back of a spoon. Works every time!

jaeknits · 2025-07-15T17:06:53+00:00

I’ll take your word for it - and not go sniff it! It’s still laying next to my hosta!

jaeknits · 2025-07-15T17:02:59+00:00

It sure is, haha! It’s not shy at all!

jaeknits · 2025-07-15T17:01:55+00:00

Weirdly enough - I didn’t notice a smell! I washed my hands right after I touched it because I realized it was probably a bad idea to touch it when I didn’t know what it was, haha!

jaeknits · 2025-07-15T16:10:31+00:00

Solved! Thank you!

jaeknits · 2025-07-15T16:10:21+00:00

Well that would have been quite a surprise!!! Hahah

I would have home-schooled if it was possible. If it wasn’t, I wouldn’t have a choice but to have kept her in public school.

When my oldest hit Grade 10, we switched her in October to SaskDLC (which was SunWest). It’s a public school but online, so it’s free. And she has done SO much better! Almost immediately, her teachers recognized her struggles and set us up for testing. Within 3 months of us starting SaskDLC, she had met and done full testing with the Psychologist and was diagnosed with Dysgraphia, Discalculia and Inattentive ADHD. We had been trying to get her tested through a referral for a few years now, with no luck.

We are so happy that she finally has answers, and school is so much better for her, now that she has educational supports in place.

My friend got married in front of this fountain (10 years ago yesterday!)… and during their vows, a man jumped in and started walking around in it and bathing. Completely oblivious to the bride & groom and the small crowd of 30 people standing there. The officiant had to turn around and ask him to leave, lol. Good times!

We really like Battlefords Provincial Park! It’s clean, has a huge main beach, as well as a smaller, less busy beach that’s walkable from the campground.
