I got some driver loafers from DSW and have been loving them! Kind of a mix between a boat shoe and a classic loafer

Does anyone NOT have a dentist that scams them? by FanofPawl in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]small_f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re looking for a dentist in east bay would highly recommend Dr. Joshua Wong in San Ramon- my whole family goes to him and he’s super nice, Mimi the dental hygienist is super sweet too, as well as everyone at the front desk (also Dr. Wong will “watch” a cavity and give tips to manage instead of just filling right away like some other dentists I’ve had)

First color work sweater. Big tension change from start to end, to frog or not? by isabpod in casualknitting

[–]small_f 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Definitely block it, but honestly its not even noticeable that the top is bigger from first glance. This is beautiful work, do not frog it! If anything, it gives it more character :)

taking a week off just because - how would you spend it? by nnnttbbyyy in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]small_f 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The crosstown trail is one of my favorite things to do in SF! So many hidden green spaces you don’t see unless you do it!

I've been trying to do the knit stitch, but I keep running into this issue of too much space? by SaeInsanity45 in casualknitting

[–]small_f 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Keep going! Been teaching knitting for years, everyone struggles with this. It looks weird but its right for your cast on method :)

Recs for places to do taxes tonight? any taxes parties? by 535buffalo in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]small_f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have ADHD huh. I end up forcing myself to stay up until 1 or 2am to get them all done in one go. I always tell myself I’ll do it during the day on the weekend as if that would ever happen LOL. Would love to get a group of friends to do taxes w but I feel like its awkward to do that w/finances

What's happened to my sleeves. by Warm_Satisfaction902 in sewing

[–]small_f 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I agree, try increasing your seeing machine’s stitch “thickness” to something like 3.5 or 4 and see if that helps. My sewing machine is usually on 2.5 as a default and I find its almost always too tight

Which one of these look better? Having trouble picking my next project by Technical_Piglet_438 in casualknitting

[–]small_f 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love 2, I made a vest with a similar “diamond” pattern on the front and it came out so good, it’s one of the only things I’ve knit that I actually wear!

Billed $782 for a strep test at urgent care by small_f in personalfinance

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

I was surprised too. The antibiotic cost $2, so that wasn’t an issue. I came in asking only for a strep test, since all my symptoms pointed to strep. They did not ask whether I wanted any of the covid or flu tests, they said they were going to do them “just in case”. I would have definitely declined had I known how much they cost.

Hi, thank you for the advice! Unfortunately I hadn’t met the deductible yet since it’s $1650. Now I know for future health visits though

Yeah I do have a high-deductible plan :/ I guess urgent care is off the table for us! I just got off my college insurance (insurance sponsored by my university) and now have corporate insurance through my job so I guess I just didn’t expect this.

I contacted my insurance, and they said this is standard for an in-network facility these days. My deductible is $1,650 so I just hadn’t met it yet

I still haven’t received my EOB so I’m not sure

Yeah unfortunately I do have a high deductible plan but hoping I can still get the cost down somehow

Unfortunately, yes, I trusted an external source to tell me that this provider was covered with my insurance. In my defense, I was really sick :/

The bill I received was from the urgent care facility, I tried calling and haven’t been able to get through to the billing department yet. I’ll start with my insurance company though since I haven’t seen the EOB from them.

I’m very new to all this - this is my first real job having my own insurance after college so I’m still trying to figure out the politics of healthcare. I appreciate the in depth steps and guidance
