If you want something to replace soda and don't want artificial sweeteners, flavored carbonated water can scratch that itch. There's some that are low sugar and some that are no sugar. They have some really interesting flavors, too. La Croix is not a great brand, in my opinion.

Your confidence is admirable. Keep being awesome.

I'm on Slowly, too! I have one penpal that I've been writing to for several years now!

Thank you for a serious answer. I would love it if a man did this for me after I expressed dislike about my appearance.

What have you done? Anymore recommendations? This might become a new obsession.😂

From the sounds of it, the company's entire accounting system is done in a very old version of Excel. One Excel spreadsheet. Which is a very bad idea for so many reasons. If it's not backed up and gets deleted or corrupted.... everything is gone. Not to mention that there's so many better ways to do your main accounting than Excel. Excel has it's uses, just not....that.

You have put me in an impossible position! I can't decide between Owl and Hedwig!

You just blew my mind. Thank you for that. Also indirectly introduced me to a way to learn a new word a day.

I haven't stitched on black aida, but I when I stitched, I used these magnifying glasses that had little LED lights on them. They were rechargeable and you could turn the lights on or off. If lighting isn't a concern for you, maybe just having a zoomed in view of what you're doing would help. There's other options than glasses, as well. I think the glasses are the least expensive and the bonus is that they're helpful on projects that use other colors of aida.

I'm surprised I've made it this far. The only reason I have is because of my dogs. I guess I'll just keep getting them to keep me here. As one approaches old age, I'll get another. Assuming the loss of the old one doesn't do it.

I hate Walmart, but have to shop there because it's the only grocery store within reasonable distance of my house. Hopefully I won't live here much longer.

r/crochet and r/lotrmems the most!
