I am very thrilled you found poutine, but sad you haven't been enjoying it for many years like I have.

@Alygohome No. You are the most Canadian Canadian in Canada.

Yeah..thats probably true. I am pretty Canadian. Every time we go anywhere people always peg us as Canadians right away (maybe my husbands hockey hair? maybe because I wear a tank top in 60 degrees?)

Whew! Late to the spam thread today.

@sugahcookie01 Same problem over here, and for some reason, I don't remember the moisture in previous pregnancies. The weird part for me, is that I do remember snissing, just not the constant wetness, and need for daily panty liners.

@holachicaaa LOVE PR! We own time share there and go regularly. It is my most favorite place!!!

My spam: (TL/DR)

Today is DDs 5th birthday. It is also the anniversary of my older brother's death. I thought I would just take a moment and tell you all about him. He had cerebral palsy, never walked/talked/fed himself, and wore diapers his entire life. He was always smiling, and very clever, and had a computer that talked (was his voice so to speak). My brother passed very suddenly and unexpectedly when I was 14 years old (he was 16) in 1992. His name was Eddie. It was one of the hardest times in my life, my younger brother, and for my parents.

So fast forward 17 years, when I was pregnant with DD. I had an eventful pregnancy plagued with placenta previa with multiple hemorrhages, 7 hospital admissions, and eventually ended in an emergency c section. The early morning hours of November 19, 2009 my water broke. I was so at peace, despite the bleeding I was having at that moment. You see, I knew my brother in heaven was going to make sure she was safe. Everything about the day that DD was born was EXACTLY the same as the day he passed. She was born on a Thursday (he died on a Thursday), the weather was the same as I remembered.

It may be cheesy, but in my mind, I think that my brother wanted us to have happiness when we remembered him, so a happy day replaced a day that was so dark for my family for so long. I have told DD about her uncle, and she has been a true gift in my life for many reasons. I made a little collage for her birthday, and thought I would share here too.

I love introducing Americans to new things!

Did you also know that we call our warm, winter hats "toques"? Pronounced "two-ks". I was astonished that Americans had no idea what I was talking about when I said this word.

I promise I'm not trying to start shit, guys. I just want this new poster to go away. Can we vote people off the island? How self serving was her response in the anxiety thread? Makes me see red!

Yea I don't think she gets it. She posted in the Wednesday ticker change, but according to her ticker it should be Friday. Do I say something, or just ignore it?

@Maple403‌ I have only had one bloody nose, but my nose is so dry that every time I blow my nose there is bloody snot/boogers happening.

Solidarity love tit there. Happens to me all.the.time. It's really bad in the morning- I am all congested and go to blow my nose and it's horrible what comes out. Not exactly a bloody nose, but just tons of congealed blood.

Now that everyone is grossed out, I'll go have dinner. Sorry all.

I work for my ladies.

Thank you! It must have posted as I was so I didn't see it.

Ha I forgot my spam: lately I cannot get enough food! I eat so much but am still hungry! We just finished grocery shopping and it was so bad that I wanted to start opening things and eat! I have never been this way since I have GI issues normally. Baby boy must be on a huge growth spurt!

I have to say I'm a little bit dissapointed to see a pretty big chunk of people haven't rsvp'd for my shower yet. We're doing it over Thanksgiving weekend (Sat) so I TOTALLY GET that many might not be able to come because of plans and travel.

But come on. RSVP!

My sis didn't have everyone's info, so I just sent out a fb message reminding my friends that rsvp deadline is Sat and gave them her email. I hope that wasn't tacky? I explicitly said "I understand if you can't make it completely, please just let them know either way for planning purposes" and that I was totally un-involved in the planning beyond inviting them.

Meh.

RSVP on time, people.

Ugh, I hate when people won't take the few moments to RSVP!!!! We had a lot of ppl do this for DH and my wedding reception (we got married by the JP downtown and saved our money for the party and honeymoon, hehe). We ended up wasting a lot of money because people who said they were coming didn't, no quick text even to say they couldn't come after all (which would have been polite). Hope your guests get to it and RSVP on time!

Blingpixie when I first moved back from living in Morocco for two years I moved in with a girl from South India...we picked an apartment with heat included and kept it at like 85+ degrees in the winter. It was heaven. I've slowly adjusted to New England temps, but came back middle of winter after adjusting to 115 degree summers! It was torture going to other people's houses!

Edit...I think this ended in the totally wrong thread....catching up on bumping after work, too many threads open!

Anyone watch bachelor Canada? I know its a long shot but do we want to talk about what a BAD CHOICE TIM MADE?! I am so angry.

What?!?! Disagree! I think they make a cute couple. The other chick was a little too quirky for him.

mishka29 · November 2014

@umbcpt‌ thank you for sharing with us! Happy birthday to your little one!

mishka29 · November 2014

Ugh...I'm so sick! I've got this awful head cold and I left work early to come home and take a nice warm bath...where I fell asleep. It took DH 3 hours to get home instead of 20 minutes because of this crazy ass snow. I lost my cool with DD. She is constantly dumping bins out then refusing to help clean up - she lost her play dough and tea set tonight. Then while I ran outside to shovel our tiny driveway she stood at the window watching me...while stompping on raspberries! Really!?

After a VERY rough afternoon, I started physical therapy at the chiropractor's office tonight. Got an amazing back massage from a girl with magical fingers and then Dr. Hottie cracked me from one end to the other. It was pure magic! I'm more than excited to go back tomorrow ;;)

Pretty sure I made this face.

No ways! The other chick was fun and awesome and the one he chose was like depressing and wishy washy. I thought for sure she was going home!! That's why I don't watch these shows cause my fav never wins lol

I had my first chiro appointment today too! It was kind of amazing how quickly he pinpointed all of my issues. I had no idea that some of my pain is SO referred from other areas (he got something to pop in my hip and suddenly my shoulder felt better ... What??)! I'm sure I'll be sore tomorrow but I'm glad to go back Friday. I wonder if I will sleep without shoulder pain tonight?

He got a really good cracking session out on my neck yesterday and I was able to sleep last night so I hope you can sleep without the pain! It'll help you not be as sore tomorrow if you take a warm/hot shower or bath tonight before bed, especially if you take a shower and let it run on your shoulders. It was also a nice change to not wake up with my shoulders feeling like they were tied together across my back this morning. I'm starting to wonder how I ever survived this long without a chiropractor in my life!

Yay!! I am glad you liked it. I love getting adjusted. After a few visits I noticed a big difference. @sugahcookie01‌. Also people that don't RSVP suck. Also people who RSVP and then flake really piss me off. Hope you have a great night sleep

OMFG, work rant

Picture this, guy and girl separate and guy wants his bill (only what he personally owes) sent to another PO box other than his ex's. Fine..understandable. So I split the accounts and according to the computer (which does it automatically) he owes 0 and she (including kids) owe 255.90. She called me bitchin saying she's never seen a bill from us and demands to know what the charges are for, when and who. Legally I can't tell her that I've split the account and her ex doesn't owe anything. They've literally never had a 0 balance since the start of coming here in 1999. I now need to sort through a shit ton of paperwork starting from 1999 (in paper copy until 2007 then computer from there) to figure it out. FUCK THIS SHIT. I'm irate. I guess this is the hell I pay for having off Monday and yesterday.

Had this happen to me. It took forever to sort it out. Our software was Softdent. It's been so long though, that I don't remember exactly what I did to figure it out.

Oh. That was no help at all. Sorry.

Annnnnd my boss still couldn't give me an answer. We're a fairly small family owned company and he needs input from the owner and his two sons. Who I almost never work with. Glad they'll help decide this. Wtf.

He told me hopefully by Friday. I told him that this is incredibly stressful and I know he feels bad but "Take a deep breath and try not to worry" has helped precisely no one ever.

This week needs to end. Pronto.

Ugh so sorry. Fingers crossed you get to stay!
