I have knit that pattern and really liked it! That whole series from Tin Can Knits was a great skill builder when I was a new knitter.

Thank you! This would be one of the biggest non-essential purchases I’ve ever made as an adult, so… I want to consider it.
Your banjo sounds cool, and I wish you the optimal playing conditions.

I want new bedsheets. My fitted sheet elastic is wearing out and keeps springing off the mattress. This is what we get for buying cheapo sheets I guess.

Ooh this made me think of a desire. My cheapo sheets stay in place pretty well… But the mattress continually shifts from being in alignment with foundation, and away from the wall, so pillows and blankets are always falling into the crack behind the bed. I want a solution to this that does not increase the footprint of the bed in the room, cuz the mattress is big and the room is small.

We got stunt pillows. Or, we demoted our worst pillows to be folded in half and stuffed in the gap (it never grew wider than a certain amount because of other stuff in the way) and used it as an excuse to get new, nice pillows.

I am torn because I want to optimise for ease of use and the ring pops are probably not as easy to hold as the boring normal ones, especially when I’m sick
But also…ring pops…
The solution is obviously to get both, right?

You could get both if you’d like, but my kids were using them when kid #2 was just 2, so 
My current object of desire is for the contract we just signed to sell the investment property (after two days on the market, one open house, three written offers presented to us tonight) to go through without any issues.

Ooh. I like it.
Me too, but $3-3.3m is a bit much without having experience.
A room somewhere, with one enormous chair
Or a room of one’s own
And a kitchen

Hmm, building/pest inspections are always fun. Highlighting things you never knew were there.
Took a hit for $5k on a bathroom shower that leaks. Investigation shows that it’s been repaired once before and needs to be done again.
But, my object of desire is still a house that sells.

I’ve just discovered that adult sized heelys exist. Sadly, it appears that the really fun ones don’t go up to my size but I’m still tempted…
