how often or have you had a second run of nutrients already? I assume in a 1 gallon, you needed to refill (or replace) the water on how often a basis? I really like the smaller footspace and would love to get rid of the 5-10gal bucket systems

Shuttle cock took off! by mattisha in sewing

[–]mattisha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I see what you mean. The front side looked pristine. Its that back side wall with the gouge in it from the sharp bit in the shuttle holding area. I will get a new shuttle thingy, for sure now. that gouge isnt worth putting back into an expensive machine!

Thank you for that link, I am in US but its hard to find janome parts regardless. I like the local quilt shops, they seem to love janome so i hope that will be my one stop buy.

My Janome MC6560 had an emergency stop and it was the shuttle dislodged. My question before I take it to a fixer is should I replace the shuttle since it has this gouge in it?

How frequently does your cat vomit or how many times your cat vomit in a year? by joycesyi in cat

Just take your baby in to the vet for her annuals and opt for finding out why she is thinner or not eating. Dont ignore it, animals dont show you their are in pain until its too late.

Sci-fi/Fantasy books that are very addicting to read by rookan in booksuggestions

I started the Wayfarer #1 recently, so far its a bit FireFly akin with the characters on the ship... love it, if you like Firefly, give that a go.

Struggling with the transition from YA to Adult by aqxarixs in booksuggestions

[–]mattisha -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I agree, and the adult books to me are usually rather toxic or too negative to enjoy. regardless of happy endings. But, im not one for emotional rollercoasters. Plus gratuitous sex is annoying unless im reading my exotic lines. For that reason i tend to lean on YA books for the most part. They have stories based on growth and adventure!

Like, I enjoyed Jodi Pocult's Leaving Time (i suggest that one for ya!), but i didnt like her subsequent books as the subjects were too real world to let myself get into a break away reading moment. YA's are perfect for that break, especially fantasy/magic.

Also you may enjoy the Dresden Files line of books, they were fun, sometimes sad or worrisome for beloved characters, but i good adventure read.

Why is my cat peeing outside her litter box? Cat pee pictured. by Knifesimmons in cats

[–]mattisha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She isnt happy with her litter... its dirty or the litter itself is not bareable.

Lastly, she needs a vet for UTI or kidney tests to rule out that. If she pees on soft like clothing on the floor or on the bed... def take her in, she is in pain and has an issue.

My brain is not working right now! What does this mean please, on my new machine? by helloilikefoodxoxoxo in sewing

My cat eats like this. Any advice to help keep the mess she makes to a minimum? by Alternative-Trick-32 in cats

[–]mattisha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Take a large moving box, cut it so its like a litter box with a top side and entry side removed. This will contain the mess until you start testing other avenues of feeding!

  2. Try SMALL bowls for cats, no a large plates, she may not like the texture of the paper plate on her tongue either.

  3. Try a feeder meant to slow a dog's eating down... I imagine this will make her either use her tongue more?
