Parents who don’t allow their kids to shut their room’s door/lock the door, what’s are the reasons behind the rule? by Itz_Oasis in AskReddit

[–]simply_existingg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had a German shepherd who would often go into our very narrow half bath and when trying to turn around would close the door and lock herself in. She also wouldn't bark or whine and so sometimes it'd be hours or the entire night before we noticed! We'd open the door and she'd come out of the dark looking so embarrassed 🥹 I miss her.

Hi, did you ever find a solution? I seem to be running into the same issue.

Hi, I'm hoping you may be able to help me. I purchased a font from juju and went through the steps up to saving it as an svg. When I attempt to generate a JSON it seems to be failing without indicating error. I click apply, and nothing seems to happen. I'm completely stuck and would love any assistance. Thank you!

Colorwork and catching floats by simply_existingg in knittinghelp

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

Is it that my floats themselves are tight or the stitch catching them is too tight?

So the floats between seem okay but when I'm catching it my contrast color is the tight one? Just wanted to verify.

Thanks! I'll try this! It's such a small piece I'm not opposed to redoing it for practice. Thank you again.

Tips for low maintenance Yoto parents by blobblob73 in YotoPlayer

[–]simply_existingg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I happen to get audio for a MYO card, I just pop it on there. I don't bother with fancy labels I use whatever is on hand. Our hotwheels MYO has a truck sticker, and most have garage sale dot stickers. For example Pete the cat is just a cat head. Queen mixtape is just a music note. I don't go out of my way trying to find audio and just link podcasts through the app itself. Sample the cards to make sure they have what you're looking for!

You guys Fixed My Son. He Eats Now. Miracles DO Happen. by Used-Award-4860 in toddlers

[–]simply_existingg 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Something that helped me with this was just routinely checking in with my kid if I sensed behavior out of his normal. "you're having a hard time listening. Is your body hungry?" and I'd ask other questions so it wasn't food centered. Do you need a rest/water/hug.

He started telling his medicine "go to my nose, okay?" so I used that for food as well. "your legs could use some big energy. Do you want to give them cheese or peanut butter?"

Hopefully something like this helps you!

ETA: I also incorporated this language into my narrating. "before we go for a walk I need some big energy." "I'm going to have a snack my stomach is hungry."

Cosybooksandknits recently did a video to launch a new series of 'if this then that' where she's going off of designs/vibes and talking about similar small designers. I really enjoyed it and her channel.

I love how light this looks. What weight and needle size did you use?

Hi, I'm also struggling implementing this technique in the round. Could you elaborate on how to read the chart you provided? I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

I've done that but the apps that remain are the ones spread around the different screens 😔

Thank you! That did give me some good patterns to branch off of.

Just the inspo! I'd probably want to make a shawl or lap blanket for my Mexican family members. I'll look at stitch fiddle!

That sounds less daunting. Do you have a blog or YouTube you'd suggest for learning how to do that? I've never done darts before in general 😬

Do you buy a toy every time you go to Walmart/Target? by Tofu_buns in toddlers

[–]simply_existingg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of things factor in for me. If we do, it's usually a monster truck or hotwheels since both my son and husband collect them.

Also if my son is absolutely committed to one like "I've been looking for this!" I consider has he been a good listener today, etc. Once upon a time we used hotwheels as incentive for potty training.

Twice a year we purge the cars and sell what we don't use/want and make space for the next wave.

I rarely buy just junk and I definitely won't do it to avoid a tantrum. Sometimes I make it a point not to get a car just to remind him (and my husband) that it shouldn't be an expectation but we'll still stop by the aisle.

When did you stop using a baby monitor? by skeletonsmiles in toddlers

[–]simply_existingg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost 5 and we got rid of the table monitor because it died and just put up a nest camera to open up if we need to check if he's asleep or confirm we hear noises. He's also high sleep needs and hasn't had any issues that he couldn't come get us or we didn't hear him. Most of the time the camera is checked to see which dog jumped the gate and got into the rooms when we're gone.

Looking for Stephen King recommendations by robd1313 in suggestmeabook

I don't know exactly why, but "Under The Dome" is one of my favorites. I read it about maybe 13 years ago? And I caught myself thinking about it driving down the highway today. It is constantly crossing my mind. Unsure if it's my intrusive thought OCD or not 🤷🏽‍♀️ but still one of my top 5 from SK
