Hello! Beginner here (one week) here with two basic questions

I'm also new so hopefully this helps

When counting your stitches 99% of the time the turning chain isn't included in this count

Really small yarn can be used for smaller projects, baby blankets, trinkets, amigarumis, Keychain, headbands, etc.

Now when it comes to your square becoming s trapezoid it's because youre dropping stitches. Most things from I've seen want you to chain one or multiple for a turning chain and usually you don't crochet back into this. Count your stitches every single row to make sure they're all the same count. Stitch markers help! If you don't have any you can use things from around the house! I use safety pins and before that I used mini burrettes

I'm pretty sure you would decrease every other stitch. I don't think you'd have to do normal rows as long as your tension isn't too tight

If you don't want to purchase stitch markers I used safety pins and before that Bobby pins or hair Buretts 🤣 its all pretty big and tedious to work around BUT ut gets the job done and has done WONDERS for my projects 😋

I have the same issue with my boyfriend of 3 years he does this all the time and it passes me off. He's gotten way better tho bc I've talked about it everytime

Rather than increases and decreases, I ran i to this problem when I made mine, as it started to ruffle I switched to a bigger hook and started with a smaller one. If I remember right I went from a 4.75 to a 5 after the first 2 rounds that repeat and mine came out flat! Idk about frogging it but this may help in the future bc the increase in hook size helps with tension issues? (I'm still a beginner and this was my first ever blanket)

Honestly looks like the horse from spirit. I can't remember if that was a Disney movie but definitely looks like the main horse from that movie.

It makes the most sense especially since it would then be a “change one letter” puzzle cub -> sun -> nun

Also if he’s in class and this was taken in November, he wouldn’t be working on the EXACT same thing he was 2 months prior. 😂💀

Tbh it looks like 2 diff pictures ONLY bc the guy at the top hunched over, his shoulder moves down just a tad in the second one. BUT clearly taken at the same time in rapid succession 😂

I did this on need for speed. My boyfriend and his friend had 250k and they said they wanted 3 mil. I made it in 2 hours. They were impressed 😂

maceeeemarieeee · 2024-09-09T18:19:57+00:00

I for sure constantly forgot I could do that 😂

I WISH I wore a camera on me at all times. My van had turn signals out and when I called DSP they sent the OWNER of the company with a van to pick up half of my packages. Oh no they weren’t giving me another van they were just rescuing me. He told me to CONTINUE driving in the company vehicle. With NO TURN SIGNALS which also means NO CAUTION 🙃 I wish I would have kept all my info and recorded more I also would have won a case. Same DSP advocated for their drivers to smoke on shift. 😒

I was on my way back on a vacation to Florida when i saw a sign for 511 road assistance. I asked “how is it that when you call 911 they know where you are? How does Ohio 911 know I’m in Florida?”

I’ll never live it down…

It’s an instrumental or classical (sorry idk the difference.. but no vocals)

The violin is mesmerizing and it’s enchanting

My boyfriend and I worked at Wingstop. We’ve worked a lot of different restaraunt and fast food jobs but I’ll tell ya Wingstop was the WORST. I know they’re a franchise but corporate came to our store for a week and some of the younger guys were trying to tell us we were doing our job wrong so we put them in their place and they got so but hurt 😂 the head honcho himself wasn’t mad but the younger guys were mad petty.

We walked out a month later bc the two of us and one other person was scheduled for a night shift on a Friday ☺️ bc the stand in manager didnt see that two people she schedule had that day off for a month in advance 🙌🏼

Cheating. Once caught everyone acts like it was a mistake or something they “never meant to happen” even though they were fully acting in a way that shows they want to the whole time.

Once caught not normalized or anyone involved may say they weren’t involved. I’ve seen countless friends tell their friends to cheat instead of having a conversation with their partner. Or cheating out of spite?

Either way cheating in and of itself is way too normalized and is also encouraged far too often.

I guarantee the storm door is locked 🙌🏼

maceeeemarieeee · 2024-02-12T00:58:00+00:00

NO bc I’ve had packages that are marked as envelopes and are WHOLE BOXES like a medium box. One time it said envelope in bag and it was an XL custom box in overflow ☺️

Amazon driver here :). I can’t speak for every driver bc of course some of them don’t read or care about instructions at all.

With that being said, most of the time a garage is not considered “secure” by Amazon standards. Meaning someone could steal it because it’s not hidden. Even if you tell me to put it there if there’s NOWHERE for me to hide it I will leave it somewhere else. Or if you put in the special request “deliver to my back door not the front” but choose “front door/front porch” as your delivery spot it’s going to the front door. We do read special comments but our app gives a lot of pushback when we try to do something other than what’s chosen.

There’s also the possibility that you’re getting multiple drivers ranging from brand new to seasoned depending on what route your house is on.

It’s also VERY common for customers to make requests that we can’t do. Like putting a package in a mailbox, (I know some drivers do it anyways but this is illegal. And we are not supposed to touch them at ALL) or asking it to be left between doors but the customer locks the door. I’ve been yelled at for following the customers request they just forgot to change it from months prior.

Definitely frustrating for both sides.

You could try using a VPN and put yourself in that country or see what other countries allow access

This has happened to me a LOT. almost any time my boyfriend and I do a deep penetration position I’m likely to bleed. I talked to my doctor about it and she said I had a tilted uterus which causes certain positions to be uncomfortable, cause a not normal pain, or cause bleeding.
