This is my first time making this dragon(well bar the tester for UKCA) I love how he turned out, I’m a beginner at crochet and I’ve started selling a couple months back and a lot of people tell me I under charge for my work, but then I know people won’t pay a high price.. in £ what would you all recommend? Ps I know he’s not perfect but I tried my best!
Hi all, found in the past couple days her tail has gone like this. Now I’ve had her for nearly a year and it’s never been like this before but unsure if this is her stressed, struggling to shed or the dreaded tail rot. Can anyone help before we get vets involved?
Just needing to know what to do. This is me laying my life on the line and being as transparent as humanly possible.
Over I would say the past week maybe two? At an absolute push my mobility has gotten better so when I first claimed I was pretty much bed bound a lot of the time then using crutches on the main better days with the odd one where I can walk without aid (my body is so unpredictable). Over this past week or so , my mobility has improved a fair bit(keep in mind I receive 0 mobility and only standard daily) of course I’m going to report this to pip but I don’t know why I just feel sick with anxiety - I think it’s with seeing this woman on the news , mind you completely different situations rather die than run 10k and do not attend the gym out of fear my back will go again. The trouble is with my condition(I have a disc bulging in my spine some days it hits my nerves that affect my legs causing pain and numbing them etc) it is completely unpredictable like I may well have 2 weeks where I could end up aid free(yet to happen) but then in 3 weeks time go back to virtually immobile so I absolutely do utilise the days where I don’t need my crutches to be able to go out for work, for personal life etc I have done since the disc bulged but I have so much anxiety about leaving my house in case they’re watching thinking ohhh she can walk now let’s send her off to the criminal house. Like I’ve already been feeling complete imposter syndrome since I started pip and now it’s just knocking me sick.
I just feel absolutely riddled with anxiety. Part of me just wants to call them and say just completely cut off my claim due to anxiety it’s causing BUT the £300 I receive is a massive aid for me and I know I’m not lying.
So the obvious next step is for me to call them and let them know I’ve had a good week or so isn’t it? Or am I being premature. I also don’t want them to think oh ok bit more mobile let’s get rid of her pip and then in 2 weeks I’m back to square one.
I am literally sat in tears feeling sick to my stomach
Someone called me regarding an MR I put in on the 28th April he stated that he was aiming to complete on that day or failing that within the next couple days; I got my pip last Friday - no change to my pay - shall I assume at this point that my reconsideration has come back as no changes?
I think I maybe over did it a little bit and if I’m honest I messed up the measurements, but all things considered. How is it?
Looking at others, it isn’t right
300g water
500g water
160g starter
Pinch of salt
2 tbsp sugar
Stretch n fold 4 x times then left over night. Once I stretched it out this morning and shaped it i was in s bit of a rush job so could only leave 10 mins ago so probs messed up on that part. But for my first ever I’m not fuming
How close are we to being there? Day 11
I’m hoping it’s not just me but knowing my anxiety it probably is. Does anyone else ever feel like they have imposter syndrome? Like I’m claiming pip due to a bulging disc in my spine, (have been since my back went March last year only on standard living, no mobility) I have days completely bed ridden, days where I walk using crutches and some days where I walk without any aid. How many days of the week I get each varies. For the majority of the time I’ve been on pip it has been the bed ridden taking the latter but the days where I can mobilise, I just feel like an imposter, like I’m doing something wrong. Like yesterday I was in attendance of a celebration, it was one of my better days(actually the only day in the past week that was a better day) I didn’t need to use my crutches , I was sat down majority of the time, but had them on hand in case my legs went weak, but I stood up - took a pic with my partner and child, uploaded to my SM and now I’m like what if they think I’m not struggling? What if they think I’m lying? Anyone know what I mean? Or am I just madly anxious. Probably the latter on that too. I just feel on egg shells.
First is the left the second is the right… does the right look good? I know the left isn’t great but I’m proud for my first ever attempt at bread! In the world of experts is the second rubbish or good?
Left is cheese and chive right is rosemary and garlic. Don’t think I added enough of either ingredient to be honest
New baker making me second loaf of bread, I’ve just made my dough and straight after realised I forgot the yeast, so I’ve added it dry(realised straight after that was a stupid thing to do. I’ve mixed it as best as I can. Is this able to be saved or a goner?
Someone called me out of the blue earlier to tell me that they where allocated to my reconsideration & that they where reviewing my claim it should be complete today and if not in the next couple days. Only been waiting since the end of last month so I’m quite impressed. But now I’m nervous pretty much I’ll be learning my fate of pip in the next 2 weeks & I also don’t understand why I had to have a call without being made away to ask why I want the MR? Like erm I’ve already told you my reasoning why you need to call to ask again? The person was lovely don’t get me wrong but now I’m sat on egg shells for the next 2-3 weeks. Does this happen every time someone does MR? Is there anything worth noting?
