Do you want this? Please say yes

Behold this unfinished swatch of baby’s first colorwork. Would you like to get this as a gift? Why or why not? Rather than just say “I tried something new and as a fairly new knitter I am proud of my work,” I’m going to fish for validation on something as highly subjective as accessory and color choice without giving any follow-up information.

Pls tell me I am doing a good job

Emergency dentist

I have a temporary dental bridge that is scheduled to be replaced with a permanent one on Tuesday. Well, last night the fucker cracked and fell out of my mouth. I look like the bride of deliverance without it. I’m able to keep it in my mouth as long as I don’t eat or drink anything or breathe too hard or sneeze 😒

I searched the sub and the last recommendation was from two years ago so I wanted to check and see if anybody had any recommendations for an emergency dentist who could get me in like today or at the very least tomorrow morning (except I’m legit scared it’s gonna fall out in the middle of the night and I’m gonna swallow it. )

I called one place and had a appointment scheduled for 7 PM tonight, but they just called me back six hours after I made the appointment to tell me that they can’t just temporarily glue it back in they have to give me an entirely new bridge. I said no, bc it’s a multi hour process and I’m already getting a new one on Tuesday. I just need them to glue this in long enough to get to my appointment which will probably be tomorrow now because they’ll want to do it as quickly as possible.

Any recommendations are much appreciated so thank you in advance!

Medium height…but petite??

I’m about a half inch over 5’5” but recently by accident i purchased a pair of petite pants online in my usual size of 00. Maybe it’s just where I like my pants to hit, but they were the perfect length and fit my hips/bum better than any other I’ve tried on in a while. I went shopping last weekend at an outlet mall and found that I also liked the length and fit of some banana republic pants I tried on as well. They were a tiny bit too short but because there was about an inch and a half of hem I just let them down a bit.

Anyone else mid height and above, and find that petite fits their proportions better? I’ve always known I have shorter legs for my height (I have my moms lower body and she’s a touch under 5’3) but my dad is 6’1 so I sort of split the difference. And if you do fit the mid height category, any particular brands run a little bit longer than others in your experience for petite sizes?

Tysm!

12 yo daughter asked to babysit - disclose dx?

Hello everyone!

My daughter is going in to 6th grade next year. This year, she got to know the young daughters (6 + 8) of a deaf classmate’s interpreter, and towards the end of the year I got a text from this woman asking if I’d be interested in my daughter would be interested in babysitting for short periods of time over the summer. (No longer than 2 hrs at a time.)

My daughter was ecstatic and wanted to say yes immediately. She gets along better with kids a bit younger than she is from a social perspective (something that started to be more apparent in the last couple of years; in some ways she is so much more mature than other kids her age but in others she she is so much younger.)

Anyway, she is really driven and responsible when she cares about something, and I trust her enough to stay home by herself for up to ~3 hr at a time. As long as she has all the rules physically written down, I know she can follow any that the mom might have. Knowing how much she wants to do this I have every confidence she will do a great job.

My question is basically summarized in the title of the post. Should I disclose to this mom that my daughter is diagnosed with level one/mild autism? I hate the idea of her diagnosis already causing bias and issues in her life if it doesn’t have to, but I can also see a world in which it would be dishonest not to disclose. Her main teachers are the ones who were quick to agree when we asked if they believe she should be evaluated for ASD but most average adults just find her a lively (extremely fast-talking and single minded young lady.) her ADHD is more evident to those who know her casually and I know there’s much less stigma attached to that as a diagnosis.

Any advice or similar stories/experience is greatly appreciated. Thank you for reading!
