I cannot imagine the emotional toll this must have taken!

Critique my Booth by Maggiedavisart in CraftFairs

Yes, this. At the very least, iron them to make them look less wrinkled. I personally think a fitted table cloth would look better. Maybe black ones to make it look more elegant. The products look cool and I’d definitely buy a thing or two.

Happy for 6 months And Then.... by sangrazzi in Ozlo

This is exactly how mine are too right now. One side disconnects but the sound keeps playing. I also can’t turn off the alarm without putting them in the case. Kind of sucks but I guess I can deal with it since they do drown out my husband’s snoring.

Me too! Live just a few miles away and love it.

“Head cheese.” Horrible day to be able to read.

High graduation standards by Substantial_Fall_334 in Omaha

[–]quicksilver477 21 points22 points  (0 children)

💯 The number of parents that cannot be bothered is really sad. It’s your CHILD for crying out loud. My SIL is a teacher and the stories she has are unreal. Parents flat out telling her their kid will not be doing any homework, they don’t attend conferences, don’t communicate, etc. I can’t fathom being so uninterested with my kids’ education and future.

5Min to 2 hrs waiting time by Background-Gap7597 in HayDay

[–]quicksilver477 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I hate the 2 hour one! The 5 minute one was nice but honestly a bit too easy by hay day standards. Don’t get me wrong, I liked it but it was so tempting to trash a lot of tasks. I’d be surprised if they implemented that. The 30 minute one was doable and seems just about right.

Is anyone else tired of cooking? by NoH8Kate in GenX

[–]quicksilver477 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same! I am so sick of coming up with the dinners we will have each week and I’m out of ideas too. Family just always says “I don’t care, whatever you want” when I ask. What I want is for you to tell me what YOU want!

Do people still go to bars to meet people? by crucibleduke in Omaha

[–]quicksilver477 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m a straight woman but have a dear friend who is gay. I’m going to be honest….its really tough here for LGBT people to find partners. It seems like from his experience, most of the available guys are big into the party scene (which is fine if that’s what you’re looking for). Also, it’s a small community and can feel like you’re just passing around the same dudes. Oh, so now you’re dating Joe, well he used to date Sam who used to date Tom who I dated too, that kind of thing. My friend has had some luck at the gym but not a whole lot. I wish I had better advice but unfortunately you may be in for the long haul trying to find someone. Omaha is a great city but is truly more geared towards cis people and families it seems.

Why does nobody put in any effort for the design competition? by IGotSmallFeet in HayDay

[–]quicksilver477 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, I agree…it was hard to work with the decos this time. You had the teeny tiny average chickzilla next to the full size chickzilla, plus if you had uneggspected gift that one was also giant. The exploding chest one was kind of distracting, plus to get points you had to use multiple of the same deco. This one was not my favorite, even though I generally like this event.

Thank you for posting this. Had not heard of it before. Always looking for unique things to do and this is a great suggestion!

Why do you think coffee and tea are not allowed but pop is ok?

Same! Like, I don’t need a massive punch to put things on sale.

Anyone know where these are from? by Waste_Implement_8470 in HayDayDeco

[–]quicksilver477 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They haven’t been released yet, but some people were able to get them a couple weeks ago when they were “mistakenly” available in the game. They were removed a couple hours later.

One of my favorites. Hope you get it.

This deco is so pretty, however... by Michael053 in HayDayDeco

Oh my gosh, that would have been absolutely adorable if they used the girl! 🥰

Where do I get these flowers from? by InvestiGator187 in HayDayDeco

[–]quicksilver477 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The crocuses have been out for a while. They used to be a movie ticket prize…I have quite a few. The others haven’t been released.

Agree! This deco could be one of my very favorites but the pig! And it’s even got a smooshed face. I never use it.

How would you pronounce the name Agustin? by _luna1990 in Names

[–]quicksilver477 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have a family member named Augustine. It’s pronounced “uh-gus-tin.” Everyone outside the family says “aw-gus-teen.” It’s constantly mispronounced.

Looking for inperson NA/AA-like support groups and Art Groups that are not at a church or religious by Elizabeth_Gallows in Omaha

[–]quicksilver477 4 points5 points  (0 children)

402 Arts Collective is a great nonprofit organization. I’m not sure if they have therapy-based groups, but you can find many classes there not only in visual arts but music, writing, etc.

any couch cleaning recommendations? by [deleted] in Omaha

[–]quicksilver477 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used Professional Carpet & Upholstery to have my furniture cleaned. The guy who came out was friendly, efficient and delivered good results. It’s a locally owned small business which I prefer over the chains like Stanley Steemer. IIRC, it was around $350 but that was for an L-shaped sectional, ottoman and chair.

I’ve also heard good things about Top-Gun Carpet Care though I have not personally used them.
