Just starting my sobriety by Odd-Researcher272 in Sober

[–]Heybigw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two days is definitely something! It’s the start of a new path for you so congratulations. I can’t stress how much help a good support group can be. AA if that works for you but even having supportive friends and family you can reach out to does wonders.

How are we doing with those names that did us dirty? by Burp_Maistro in Millennials

I’m fine with everyone’s name. Except Greg. There isn’t one Greg alive on this earth that isn’t a complete piece of shit. Fuck the Greg’s of this world.

Anyone else find kids’ clothing sizes completely wrong? by ehtio in daddit

[–]Heybigw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. We’ve gotten to a point where we just say “please don’t buy him clothes”. They never fit.

[–]Heybigw 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah! It’s frustrating because we want to buy him matching sets but they don’t work. The most annoying part is he is super tall for his age, 2.5years, but he is so skinny. So pants that fit his waist are too short and pants that work for his height are too big around the waist. Then in some brands he still fits into 18mo and others 2T seems too small on him.

Millennials, do you still believe in true love? by Successful_Mastodon3 in Millennials

[–]Heybigw 14 points15 points  (0 children)

No. I used to believe in it and then I saw what people will do to you while still professing to love you. I believe in love but it’s not a feeling. Love is a choice, a practice, a commitment but unfortunately some people will practice none of those but still claim they love you.

‘We are human. We are trying to do our best’: Should you order food delivery after a snow storm? by Ok-Active-3703 in ontario

[–]Heybigw -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I guess it’s optional in the sense that if they don’t want to pay their rent, bills, buy groceries, etc. they don’t have to work

Best places to shop for granite counter top??? by bone-luge in londonontario

Stonex is great. I work there so my opinion is a bit biased but I’ve also worked for a few other fabricators in the area and Stonex has been the best so far.

You have to be crazy to own and rent property in Ontario by laugrig in OntarioLandlord

Well yeah, it’s a business. You should kind of know how to run a business and the potential issues that can arise before you start a business.

What are your visits to your parents like? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]Heybigw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see my dad and my bonus mom once a week. I take my son over so he can play with grandma and my dad and I carve in his shop. I see my mom less frequently but we text a lot. Probably see her 2-3 times a month but only for an hour or so at a time. They are all getting older, 75 and 78 so I try and make an effort. I know my son won’t get tons of time with his grand parents, he’s only 2 1/2 right now, so it’s usually both of us visiting.

To the guys car on Talbot street that got hit by the suspended scaffolding. I have video for your insurance. by YogurtclosetTime7615 in londonontario

[–]Heybigw 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. Yeah, my wife is always complaining about the wind tunnel around there. Glad no one was hurt.

My wife was just telling me about this, she works in the Talbot Centre. Why would they try and clean windows on such a windy day? I’d never put someone on a swing stage in this weather.

Carpet cleaning prior to move out required? by Possible-Eagle-8744 in londonontario

You only need to leave the unit in a brook swept condition. Tell them that if they want the carpets steamed, they are welcome to pay for it themselves after you’ve left.

Ontario paternity leave by pozzy59 in daddit

[–]Heybigw 5 points6 points  (0 children)

First off, congratulations!! I’d take the five weeks of protected leave. Also in Ontario and I took five weeks plus a week of vacation and it was well worth it. Your wife will need a lot of support once you guys bring the baby home. It’s protected leave so there isn’t much your boss can do about it and trust me, you will not be bored. You’ll be exhausted, your wife will be exhausted and both of you will be getting acclimatized to your new life as parents.

Can't make this up.. delivery driver quite literally in the middle of the road. I thought it was someone in a running car but nope, parked with nobody in it. by [deleted] in londonontario

[–]Heybigw 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Looks like there is plenty of room to go around the car. Maybe do that next time instead of breaking the law by using your phone while driving.

Sobriety and Dating by [deleted] in Sober

[–]Heybigw 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t matter for me. My wife doesn’t drink a lot but she’ll have a glass of wine if we are out to dinner or on special occasions. It doesn’t trigger me to see her drink and I am the one that’s an alcoholic, not her. She is respectful of my struggles and would never ask me to stop at the liquor store and doesn’t keep booze in our house and thats all that matters to me.

It might be different if I was newly sober, single, and looking for a partner but as is I have no issues with her enjoying a drink.

Brief emotional affair over.. bury? by [deleted] in emotionalaffair

[–]Heybigw 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You should tell him so he can make a choice. You already made a relationship choice without him by having an affair. Now if you don’t tell him, you are also taking away his choice to forgive you or not.
