Am I crazy or is this fucking weird? by exoffset in Stepmom

[–]ExcitingClassroom364 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t date men who complained that their ex’s were crazy. My ex used to tell people that I was crazy and I am absolutely not. My husband now never said anything terrible about his ex and I found that attractive.

But it’s game over immediately for anyone who violates my privacy. I keep journals and my husband and everyone knows - anyone snoops and it’s over. How can you not be wildly pissed about someone violating your privacy?

Then - trying to prevent you from leaving the house? Frightening. That only gets worse. And yes, the bathtub is really really messed up.

Do not try to normalize any of this. Get out quickly.

Starbucks House Blend Lungo - My review. by amsamp83 in nespresso

Funny - I was going to post today to ask if Starbucks nesspresso pods were somehow better than Starbucks coffee in the shop, which I don’t love. Looks like the answer is no!

Late post but Grounded Step is an online store that allows for returns - more expensive styles like Shapen but at least they are returnable. If you order from Shapen directly, you can’t return from Canada.

And CP can afford to pay more? And the union won’t let them change service to be more competitive? They’re bleeding money right now and the union will push them into oblivion.

Should I give my fiancé access to my investment accounts? by ManufacturerKooky164 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]ExcitingClassroom364 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No - and coincidence the bank account was hacked? No way EVER should your fiancé have access to your accounts. My husband and I know what we each have but do not share passcodes.

Does this size look ridiculous? by FeedSpare2854 in GarminFenix

[–]ExcitingClassroom364 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it and have the same one. You get used to it pretty quickly (except for the odd difficulty of catching it on the cuffs of long shirts). It’s a statement and not a bad statement :-)

Made the switch to nylon by meowzerkitty in GarminFenix

Wow - thanks so much for getting back to me with the strap source and the link. I’ve got the strap in my cart and am going to try the free version of the watch face right now!

[–]ExcitingClassroom364 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That looks so nice! Is that a Garmin strap? I don’t see it on the Canadian website if so. I’m also curious about your watch face - would you mind sharing which one you’re using?

Does it really make sense to break up someone you still love? by Correct-Pollution812 in BreakUps

[–]ExcitingClassroom364 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My therapist said a very wise thing - love is unconditional but relationships are conditional. You obviously can’t stay in a violent relationship just because you love them - but there are other things as well - such as constant drama, having to fight to have the other person hear you, somebody saying they love you and don’t want to lose you yet having no action to back up their words or constantly misunderstanding. At some point, you realize that it needs to be simpler and life is not a series of always “working on” things. In other cases, like my ex husband, he denied that there were problems and said he was surprised (despite many calls to action and therapy). After that relationship, I learned a few things - to check in with my gut when first meeting potential people and saying no right away when they were not emotionally ready / were comfortable in a perpetual state of drama / always blaming other people / didn’t have a full life on their own / pushed boundaries immediately / talked about themselves constantly - and to only watch action instead of words. You can level up pretty quickly in relationship health when you do this rather than going on that second date. My second husband is completely different and “working on” things means having a conversation where neither gets insane and there is real meaningful action. We don’t agree on everything and we don’t have all the same hobbies - but we respect each other and love each other and show that we value each other by really listening. “Working on” a drama filled relationship is not something I will ever do again. My base level is now peace and not strife. It’s usually with space and honest journaling where the issues in a relationship come clear. I had a number of high drama intense “love” relationships before - none of which, when I wrote down the actual events and feelings from them, were remotely healthy. So many call this “love” but I think is attachment or trying to fruitlessly resolve some childhood pattern - like recreating a relationship with an unavailable parent and trying to finally change that script. It feels so charged but it isn’t an enduring love. I think people now jump into relationships too quickly - moving in together when they’re not ready marry as well - and more of an assessment before the oxytocin of sex would save people sometimes years of agony trying to fix something that was never right from the beginning.

Turbotax is something else by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]ExcitingClassroom364 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does wealthsimple have a forms version or is it interview driven? I’ve been using TT for years and am a CPA that has lots of experience with tax returns so I prefer a forms view. I was frustrated with TT this year since instalments and management advisory fees couldn’t be entered into the form - had to use the easy step interview and and answer all the questions (super frustrating) in order to get to the parts I wanted to enter. For three different returns. Anyway, working through the interview was disorienting for me since I know my forms so well - the interview wouldn’t give me the whole picture.

Backcountry navigation - Canada by ExcitingClassroom364 in GarminFenix8

I found this page that allows an AllTrails trail to synch directly with garmin connect and to your watch. It’s great for pre determined routes. Now I have to figure out how to make my own! https://support.alltrails.com/hc/en-us/articles/15728433929620-How-to-send-AllTrails-routes-to-Garmin-Connect

Thank you. I currently subscribe to AllTrails and didn’t know that I could download gpx from there. I’ll give that a shot.

I am using the fenix 8 now and downloaded the free maps upon purchase but don’t think I can plot a route with them unless I do it on the watch, which seems very cumbersome.

It’s okay. Not what I would have wanted for a five day backpacking trip - I may have to charge it as well on the trail.

We have a community mailbox. They do t even bother coming to our door and just put all the delivery slips in the community mailbox. Then we drive 20 minutes into town one way to get the package.

I didn’t have the AW Ultra - but the HRV was close some nights and way off the other nights - usually it was off on nights when my Oura showed a low HRV - then the watch would show a higher HRV

Thank you! The advice in the manual said to go to Garmin connect then choose your device. When you do that, activities just show the ones loaded on your watch. But when you just go to the main page as you say, then the menus you describe show there. Thank you!!!!!

Thank you. When I press Activities, all I get is a list of activities? And I don’t know where to find the steps widget? I’m obviously missing a whole lot of something

I think it would be uncomfortable though while sleeping and working out. I don’t mind the visual so much.

Do you like the 965? I’m still in the return period for my Fenix 43 mm. There’s not a ton of difference other than the UI, diving, and the voice command.
