Man, it warms the cockles of my heart that every time I see Maryland in the news they’re either on the right side of history or just kicking ass in general. I may be a Canadian but I grew up there and it will always be my home state. Congrats girl!
Oh my gosh thank you!! I need this exact thing but hadn’t gotten around to figuring out a solution. Much appreciated!!
I can get down with this.
That’s what I do too. Works really well for me. Might add in the drinking more water part though, I could definitely use some more hydration in my life.
I wish we had a 30 year! That would be amazing in some ways. I have to renew this year and I’m not looking forward to it.
Not Canada. Highest I’ve seen is 10 year, most of the time it’s 5.
We have to renew in Oct and we were looking at BMO and they have a 10 year fixed now.
Not who you were talking to, but no, the closing costs are one time only. You basically just renew or get a new mortgage somewhere else. Ours is coming up in October, we’re a bit worried but hopeful it won’t be too bad. We’ve got wiggle room as we got a great deal on our house but it’s still going to suck. I have seen a 10 year fixed, might go for that if we can get a good enough rate.
I would also like that!
Edit to say I also hope you feel better quick. Bronchitis is the worst.
I work in a trade school and apprenticeship has been around for ages so I think it would translate. I would just say that I help teach apprentices along with their masters, specifically about boats and ships.
Will do! Thanks for the tip!
I’d never heard of that so I did some looking and wow, that looks so good! I’m going to try to make one, though I’ll have to change up the chutney that seems to be common as I don’t like cilantro.
Kinda reminds me of the Korean Street Toast, except that one has ham. The grilled sandwich I’ve been eating recently is the Charlie Brown. It’s egg salad. So good!
Thank you!! I wasn’t totally sure if I could cancel it or not and hadn’t gotten around to confirming. Much appreciated!
It depends what I’m knitting tbh. I have both wood and metal.
I got the knitpicks wood ones first and that’s what I learned on. I like that they’re sticky for doing lace or fair isle as I’m slow at those and the stitches don’t slip off, feels more stable. The chiaogoo I got secondhand, which was amazing, and they are great for just straight up power knitting. Super fast but slippy as all get out. I’d suggest getting a wood set next, they will definitely grow with you and won’t be as slippery while you’re trying new things. Happy knitting!
FYI, the leach is the trailing edge of a sail. Not that I think he knows that, but maybe his spellcheck does. Doesn’t excuse the rest….
Ah! Very cool! Thank you so much, just went on a neat Google maps explore.
Is that the Flores island in Guatemala or in BC?
Oh wow! That is sharp! Beautiful work! Patterning definitely seems to be the secret ingredient. And yes, from my looking into it everyone has a different way. Way back in the 90s the shop I worked in had the sail service and canvas in the same area so I would help the guy that did all the patterns and frames sometimes. He used heavy poly for the patterns. Very cool to watch and learn from. Unfortunately I never did more after that to cement it in my brain. I’ll be patterning for mine, not worth all the fuss with the 3D stuff for just my own job. Also I want to make a hard Bimini so everything is going to get changed up anyways.
The guys I know do know how to pattern but they’re young uns and very tech savvy so they have modified to suit their needs. Use a camera they already have and take a bunch of pictures, run that through the modeling software and then flatten it and send it to their plotter. I don’t think they spent more than 15k for plotter and software? Also one of them is the sewer so already informed of the project. Works for them but I feel that you should know how to pattern first as well. They are trying to get set up for people to send their files to them and then they can cut and send back.
Sorry for the late response, whole family got hit with Covid, just surfacing now.
Definitely do! It’s super easy to grow. It likes to spread something fierce though so I’ve done mine in a big pot. Seems to be doing ok.
I had ear surgery yesterday that will hopefully help with my hearing loss and sinus drainage. I’ve been waiting for almost two years for this hoping that my country would start to cover the procedure but finally said fuck it, it’s worth it for my quality of life. Feeling like I have a head cold today, but without the sick feeling. So far I think I can hear better already but not sure if it’s just wishful thinking lol. I’m cautiously optimistic!
This is a great thread, definitely cheered me and a lot of other people up. Thanks!
