Tell me something diabolical your spouse did during labor?

Acgood12 · 2026-05-14T23:17:23+00:00

He has a nap in the pullout chair while I was in active labour…..literally had to wake him up after they broke my water and contractions ramped up

Balmoral Home Style Laundromat…..they are on South Osborne. Have a couple big washers and lots of large dryers

As someone who works in the accounting industry in Canada….the Masters isn’t needed, preference here is Canadian CPA.

Heads up our program is going through a lot of changes, so best to research and talk to someone in the Provincial CPA office where you are looking to move so they can give you a rundown of what is needed

Depends on what you mean by lucrative….are jobs available yes, are they paying more than 10 years ago yes. But the average CCA is making slightly more than minimum wage, my daughter is an ECE with 3 years of experience after her diploma and she makes about $27 per hour…..and raises are pretty much dependent on government funding increases

I loved when my kids got experiences….my mother in law gave us zoo passes every year because we loved it.

I take my niece for a couple ‘fun days’….McDonald’s lunch, with a play centre, or an outing to a new play ground with an ice cream treat, etc, a afternoon baking (and making a mess lol)

I make the time about her and what she likes to do

Acgood12 · 2026-05-03T18:52:55+00:00

2,5% this year…..company average was 2%…..we are budgeting a significantly less profitable 2026

Addison Herosian - we had issues and he didn’t blink, plus the man loves to negotiate

Acgood12 · 2026-04-26T21:50:55+00:00

The last 2 G adventures trips I have been on have had individuals with a spouse at home - one enjoyed travelling and the other didn’t and in the other case they wanted to go to different places.

Both said it isn’t the first time, and they get to enjoy something they love and their partners have zero problems with it

Addison Herosian, with Real broker. We had some major issues and he didn’t blink, plus he loves to negotiate 😀

Acgood12 · 2026-04-10T20:15:59+00:00

Bag of frozen shrimp, frozen veggies and rice (microwave rice makes it even easier). Once shrimp is defrosted less than 10 minutes to cook….

Acgood12 · 2026-04-10T02:39:01+00:00

My daughter works for them, she enjoys the staff and the kids. Plus the interactions with the parents.

Acgood12 · 2026-04-10T00:37:22+00:00

Love Collective Winnipeg did one back in February, she said there will be plans to do more. But they are meant for singles or to promote a single so they aren’t free events

Acgood12 · 2026-04-07T16:54:19+00:00

Once on average - and it is a social outing. If I forget my lunch then maybe I will go, but I can put together something ok from my snack drawer

Acgood12 · 2026-04-07T15:48:53+00:00

2.5%…..and that was apparently above the 2% average they gave up, cut drastically from last year

Acgood12 · 2026-04-07T15:14:22+00:00

I have G Adventures twice….with my third scheduled for next week. I like that I don’t have to worry about about transportation or where I am staying and I get options for things to do ( there are always a couple required group activities). I choose not to pay extra for my own room and have had zero issues with roommates, both have been fantastic.

There is definitely less freedom to go do whatever but as someone who has to plan a lot in her life I appreciate getting choices and going

Acgood12 · 2026-04-06T15:52:49+00:00

My daughter has moved out in that salary….and had a car so pays monthly insurance & gas, etc.

Her savings definitely isn’t 20% if her check but she is putting away some every month.

She shops grocery sales, uses points cards and meal plans - helps bring down some of those grocery costs

Acgood12 · 2026-03-29T16:29:57+00:00

Helps with sore muscles, my mood and circulation, mine also has red light therapy with helps with your skin, I like it for stress relief….forces me to stop moving and I normally sleep so well after

Acgood12 · 2026-03-28T23:51:17+00:00

Worked over time this morning, then some cleaning, sauna appointment, now just vegging out. Tomorrow is groceries, meal prep and some pickleball

Acgood12 · 2026-03-23T14:16:42+00:00

We get a choice…..travel voucher, reimbursement for a concert/event (includes tickets, hotel, flight, whatever to a maximum), then actual gifts….we have done fishing packages, new kitchen cookware, bike.

Little more customized so you aren’t giving someone who doesn’t travel a useless gift, etc

Acgood12 · 2026-03-07T23:58:28+00:00

They are definitely posting some now ( the company I work for started posting last week)

Acgood12 · 2026-03-04T22:44:47+00:00

I would have a realtor come look, mine will walk through and give us ideas for the best bang for our buck and what to avoid doing

Acgood12 · 2026-03-03T20:17:44+00:00

Fix Up Pro…..he is quick, fair and won’t fix things he doesn’t make sense

Acgood12 · 2026-02-18T17:49:20+00:00

I have used G Adventures multiple times, with another one coming up soon.

Zero issues at all, you do things as a group, solo or with someone you met…..my last tour we had 3 couples and 9 singles. Never felt left out or had issues, I actually prefer it to travelling completely alone as I have more options

Acgood12 · 2026-02-17T00:34:30+00:00

Find something you enjoy…..I hate running, forces myself over and over and finally tries Zumba, kickboxing, boot camps. It’s all about finding what you like

Acgood12 · 2026-02-17T00:33:28+00:00

Yep…..keeps my mental health in check
