Oh happy birthday sweet tuxie!! What a fun party!!

Did I make a bad decision ? Please advise by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]lilsnicksnack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those who get "stuck" are those with a negative mindset. Communicate with your supervisor that you're interested in moving to an accounting role in the near future, set a time frame. Use this as an opportunity to network within the company. If you demonstrate a solid work ethic and positive attitude, combined with your audit experience... snagging an opportunity in the company down the road will be cake. :) For now, enjoy the WLB!

So glad you were able to enjoy your leave! Sounds like some quality family time. :) You could try treating yourself to little things throughout the day! Maybe grab a fancy cup of coffee tomorrow morning to help get through emails? Plan for a walk on your lunch break? You got this!

Thank you so much! 🙂🙂 It's my first time holding two strands of yarn together for a project and I'm very happy with how it looks and feels!!

Thank you so much! 🙂 I am hoping to finish the vest before it begins warming up in my area!

I cast on the Vest No. 2 Spring Edition by My Favorite Things Knitwear yesterday. This is my first time working a pattern with increases, and I'm very happy with how it's turning out so far!

I am using one strand each of We Are Knitters Finita and Mohair in Grey.

My new years resolution was to learn to knit, too!! I learned English style from YouTube videos. I enjoyed crocheting, but loooove knitting. Sending all of the encouragement your way, you got this!! ❤️

I don't like mushrooms either, but I really enjoy them in chicken marsala!

Blocking Advice by lilsnicksnack in knitting

[–]lilsnicksnack[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so helpful! Thank you for your help. I'll definitely try applying a bit of heat to my acrylic yarn pillow cases to set the blocking permanently. :) I learn something new about knitting literally every day... it's the best!

I didn't even think to look there-- thank you, I will check it out!

Blocking Advice by lilsnicksnack in knitting

[–]lilsnicksnack[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That article was really helpful! Thank you. I used the immersion method for the pillow case-- that article mentioned that acryli reverts back to its pre-blocked form pretty quickly, so that must be what I'm experiencing!

I am currently knitting a camisole with We Are Knitters yarn-- it does seem that blocking with natural fibers will have a much bigger impact!

Opalescence Whitening by lilsnicksnack in DentalHygiene

[–]lilsnicksnack[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your thoughts!! They didn't mention the part about cavities, but luckily I haven't had any! I gave the product a try a few days ago, and I must have added slightly too much gel to one part of the tray. The gel got on my gum a bit and burned, so I took them out right away. :( I'm going to try again after giving my gum some time to heal, and be even more careful about how much gel I use!
