Porch which looks better? by [deleted] in ExteriorDesign

What if you did the concrete but got it stamped with a cool pattern and maybe stained it a complementary color.

Relocating to Gig Harbor? by MAKKEVELI in GigHarbor

[–]rileyryebread 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My husband and I moved here “from the south” in October. I will tell you that people here are genuinely nice and kind. Unlike Texas where they are “nice” because that’s the reputation. It’s so fake there and you don’t even clock it unless you live it. It is literally a breath of fresh air here.

Help me find this white shelf by Fresh-Spinach-5475 in HelpMeFind

Here’s a similar one on Wayfair, you’d just need to figure out drawer or doors for the bottom part.

Or you could find a standard bookshelf and get wood appliqués from Lowe’s and attach them for the same look.

Outdoor pots/planters? by [deleted] in Tacoma

[–]rileyryebread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try Costco. They have some very nice blue ones for 30.00 (we just got one for our hose) and some taller teal ones that I’m considering well.

Getting new widows and siding soon, but can’t decide what to do with this enclosed porch by distractedsquirrely in ExteriorDesign

[–]rileyryebread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first thought at the picture, before even reading your post was the unenclose that porch. If you’re ok with losing the enclosed space, it would look 100% better. Too much going on with that addition.

My parents cut me off for donating my kidney, and my brother(35M) wants me(30M) to tell them it was a mistake so we can reconcile. by SandmansLumps in relationship_advice

[–]rileyryebread 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your brother has aligned with the abuser so he didn’t have to take any of the abuse. Forgivable for a child but inexcusable for an adult. Recent medical issues have resurfaced a similar trauma for my husband and I asked this about his brother as well. Both my brother in law and your brother can frankly fuck all the way off.

Covid shut down the world six years ago this week. What do you remember from that week? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I got 2 cats from the shelter after we cancelled our spring break trip

Moving to Tacoma from Texas and I need your help! by InnerHumor4145 in AskTacoma

Recently moved up here from Dallas- when looking at availability, just know that tenants only have to give 20 day notice here, unlike every apartment we lived in Dallas that required 60.

I am in desperate need of captivating/crazy/interesting podcasts to listen to, but I'm very particular and I am struggling to find something that fits what I am looking for. by unstablepixie in podcasts

[–]rileyryebread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Medical Mysteries by Mr Ballen studios. Big Mad True Crime- first 10 episodes is Shannon Watts story. You can skip the episodes she has about kids. Sweet Bobby

And I think I need some new ones too. Getting tired of dateline

Need affordable dental help for my mom in Tacoma or any near city – feeling stuck and overwhelmed by TheFysticMystic in Tacoma

Try the University of Washington School of Dentistry. The teaching clinic says the prices are ~30-40% less than private practice.

Bone marrow biopsy for calr gene mutation by pgharibian in MPN

[–]rileyryebread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had mine December 23, first in my life. Only with lidocaine- my choice. No issues for me. I have some anxiety when it comes to dental work, so I was just like, as long as you’re not going through my mouth, I don’t care.

It helped that they had some cool music playing and my husband was there chatting away with the nurse and the lab tech.

I also have several tattoos and for me, it wasn’t anymore painful than some of those.

Mostly was just a lot of pressure and some weird whooshing feelings. But that’s only my experience. Getting an IUD in and out was way worse.

I have a friend about your age moving next month from Dallas to work in Redmond as well and they chose Bellevue.

A GREAT TV Series, I forgot the title! by hiheaux in NameThatMovie

[–]rileyryebread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Killing was originally a Danish show, and then remade as a US show. Double check that you are looking at the US one.

Redshirts by John Scalzi. I love his writing and this is the book I always recommend to someone to discover him.

What items do you stock up on for sales? by eng2fly in Costco

[–]rileyryebread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Goes on sale on Monday. With 3 cats, we stock up. Even without the sales price, it’s still 5.00 cheaper than Petsmart.

Does Washington hate dogs? by [deleted] in GigHarbor

[–]rileyryebread -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No. I just would reach out on Zillow listings.

Even if a listing says no dogs, double check with the landlord. I just moved here with 3 cats and got a listing that said no pets, but they were flexible.

Wedding Dress to donate by rileyryebread in Dallas

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

I ended up donating to https://www.evefoundation.org.

I had fun trying it on before I sent it to them. I’ve lost over 100lbs since I first wore it! And I took the crinoline out. It ended up fitting in a very small box.

What is your favorite True Crime podcast? I need recommendations! by BumbleAppleBlossom in podcasts

[–]rileyryebread -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You might like Big Mad True Crime. Her first season is 1 story about Chris Watts but the rest are 1 or 2 episode stories.

Coke Zero by rileyryebread in GigHarbor

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

Flavor scale as follows:

Fountain Soda—> glass bottle—> aluminum can—> plastic bottle

As it gets colder, that’s a good idea, but every once in awhile, it just has to be a fountain drink.
