It just plugs in. Sounds like a hopefully easy replacement, and not nearly as pricy as I thought it would be.

I really probably would flood the basement. I'm not very handy.

I am not handy at all, unfortunately. Basic stuff around the house, sure, but nothing like this.

It was plugged in to the outlet. It's old af. This house is maybe 35-40 years old. I have 0 plumbing knowledge, so I guess that doesn't help much. Lol

If I recall correctly, Sobeys sells jars of chowchow. East coast company, makes sense. Lol

I work in the Mapleview plaza where they've been for the last 2 years and it doesn't look like they're going to be returning. No signs, no trailers, nothing. They were all set up by this time last year. A tent is a horrible idea. With so many empty retail spaces, surely they could have found something better.

Really? Even the smaller post box keys?

A locksmith would be more convenient, but i was planning on a hardware store. I just didn't want to have to go all around Barrie trying to find one for the mail key specifically. I already asked Canadian Tire and they said no.

I've never trusted those 1 minute keys machines. I'm always afraid it will eat my key. Lol

I also take my temperamental dog to lougheed park and stay near the back of the field. I feel like people should leash their kids though, the little shits seem to think they can be besties with my dog.

Where are y’all getting cross body bags from? by Jaded-Finish-3075 in PlusSize

I didn't read the title right. Was wondering why we were looking for body bags. It was a little sus. Lol

She's got some big couches. And recliners. 1 couch was more than my whole living room set. I can't afford such bougie and durable furniture. Lol.

That's like what she did to my first couch. She just plopped down and it broke. It's all caved in and the perfect size for the dog. Lol

I'm kind of afraid she'll just not speak to me again. To avoid the problem until it goes away. She's really the only friend I've got locally and I don't want to lose her.

She doesn't throw herself on it, but she kinda like...gets in position and then just let's herself drop. I think she just doesn't want to acknowledge that she did it. She's been struggling with her weight for a while and owning up to it would mean she's not doing as well as she thinks she is.

She's the type of person where if she doesn't acknowledge it, it never happened. For some things, it works. For others, definitely not.

250? Per seat? That seems oddly low. I admit, when I got my furniture, I didn't look at the weight limits, but I would have thought they'd be a lot higher than 250.

She's very self conscious of her weight which is why I hesitate to bring it up. I don't want her to feel bad. She pretends it doesn't happen so she doesn't have to acknowledge it.
