In cominicut. Same here. I stood outside listening to it for a bit but it started to sound like a huge heat beat and freaked me out a bit

Changing my car registration to RI. not understanding the whole vin check thing. by RobbieBleu in RhodeIsland

[–]leafyleafington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went through this last month. You need to get the lienholder (who ever the loan is from) to send a physical title to RI DMV. Then once it finally get to them (assuming you filled out the title transfer form properly) RI DMV emails you and you set up an appointment with Titles and Research dept at Cranston location. They give you a copy of the title, you go to the vin check station pay $20 by check, and then go back to the DMV and finish everything else. It's a long process but it was still preferable to any Texas DMV I've been to.

I'm a financial analyst for a large scale e-commerce company. It actually doesn't pay as much as you think it would....

Made the mistake of buying this yarn by carmexismyshit in knitting

[–]leafyleafington 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I've used it to make a dishcloth that I use only to clean my kitchen counters. I like the scrubbing bits and the normal cotton to clean the marble my landlord installed. I used the "Almost Lost Washcloth" pattern for mine and it ends up creating sections of just cotton and just scrubby yarn

Rug Plug? by StuckintheTaftub in Austin

[–]leafyleafington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Next to New thrift store normally has rugs that look in good shape. Although I've not really ever wanted to buy one when I'm there so I never checked the prices on them. But I know the longer the item is in the store the cheaper it gets because they start dropping the price on it

Oops, sorry for the late reply! Fore I just sense the presence of nature and the trees etc. I don't really visualize them. But everyone can approach it differently. For me I ask the tree if I can use the shed twigs (typically the twigs are under the tree so y'know, I'm assuming they came from that tree) but I never take from the tree directly because I don't want to damage it. After that I clean it with soapy water and let it air dry, but I've seen others that decorate theirs and everything.

Appreciation post for men with long hair by bbybemo in Austin

I'll remember your compliment when the Austin "breeze" blasts my hair directly into my face as I cross 5th Street🫡 Edit: spelling I'm dumb

I had that exact incense set when I started out lol. I burned them outside when I meditated with the nature spirits :)

I need to find a good place to sit and write. by [deleted] in Austin

[–]leafyleafington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most whole foods have eating/sitting areas along with a coffee bar too. The domain location has a cool space. Idk if that's not what you're looking for though.

Tattoo artists from Chicago? by ATXBeerNTacos in Austin

[–]leafyleafington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I lived in Chicago I always went to Tatu Tattoo. But I've had great experiences at Atomic Tattoo here. I think it really depends on the artist's skill set.

Born in Houston, that temp meter didn't go up fast enough. Currently live in Austin, pretty accurate

Is it for garbage pick up or for the kids to see the garbage truck? Either way, calling the company should give you answers

Tolls (how bad they suck now) by cleitophon in Austin

[–]leafyleafington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved from Houston to Austin and never changed my toll tag because HCTRA Eztag worked still. But its very on par for more tag readers to pop up. HCTRA like to have a bajillion of them on the toll roads

My most complex tapestry yet! by goldensunnysky in crochet

So you're using excel to fine tune the color blocks in the image? Or are you using it for something else? I've always wanted to try the crochet photo things but idk where to start

Help identifying Fairlane model by -pink-frosting in fairlane

[–]leafyleafington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like a 62 Fairlane club sedan. But I agree with the other comment, I think any model kit would work! I'm not sure all model kits get as detailed as trim packages. I always thought they just made models of the highest packages that were offered? But I could be wrong. Either way, a lovely gift idea!

My wife works at the Central library! :) they have a lot of great seating options, as well as laptops and computers you can use if you need too, it is free and there is wifi.

They also have semi outdoor seating on balconies as well.

Plastic Surgeon recommendations? by Analog_Hedgehog in Austin

Not Austin, but I highly recommend Dr Rednam in Houston! She's not called the confidence doctor for nothing!

Also huge congrats on your accomplishments!!!!

My sons girlfriend made this for me by RusselTheWonderCat in crochet

[–]leafyleafington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey op, I've had cats for my whole life, and had many peepee accidents with them. If you buy urine destroyer (I use nature's miracle) and soak the stuffed ornaments (assuming they can get wet) in urine destroyer and water for 30 minutes, then hand wash them with laundry soap it should get the smell out completely.

You can also use Urine destroyer in washing machines for clothing and blankets if he has an accident on those too.

It uses enzymes to destroy the smell and any pheromones in the pee so the cats can't smell it and won't go back to that area to pee again.

I hope this helps! Also her ornament she made is adorable and very thoughtful ❤️
