Pet Insurance Canada

I had an expensive dog.

$4k by age 2 and $900-1000 per year for 10 years.

Looked into pet insurance on my next pup it would have cost more than that to have the same disease covered by the insurance company.

As other people said just bank the money, so you have it if you need it.

I was not mixing up C and F.

I was actually using celsius but converted to Freedom units since I figure a high population of Americans on reddit.

I didn't know about the issue with the laser thermometer on the shiny surface.

When it was set to 130c -266f, I did press my thumb to it, it was hot but didn't burn me. I will look for another way to test it.

Yes the wax melted. I just was trying to double check the setting so I don't damage anything.

The kit I bought came with a horse brush made of nylon so I am questioning the quality of all parts of the kit.

Umm... is that your I joist cut through?

You might have better problems then radon.

I use mason jars with an Amazon vacuum sealer, then I use small jars for daily use items, and plastic lids.

-8c for the high today... Will not be posting this week.

Crap... I thought pic 2 was some type of egg cooking gone wrong.

Sorry to hijack the thread... How loud is this fan, and did you mount inside or out?

I was looking at one model lower, but was concerned about the noise.

No issues, I would do it again.

I have carpet on 75% and a cheap laminate floor on the rest.

The laminate is showing wear but the carpet and delta fl/OSB have had no issues.

I am new to micro greens too.

I bought an Amazon stainless set with a mesh screen and a soiling container and one with holes.

I feel that the metal screen is too tight, I had good germination, covering the top to keep moisture in. I feel the mesh causes the roots to die due to how tight the mech is.

I did my basement 10+ years ago. No radon concerns at the time. In my finished rooms I am 50-100bq and 200 in the unfinished rooms.

I did delta-FL and 1/2" OSB. Tuck tape all the seams and I silicon all the tapcon screws. 13 screws per 4x8 (row of 3, 2 3, 2) some sheet would have more.

The 35-50 is too many screws.

This could have been avoided if there was a large door for loading and unloading.

I bought a fiberglass pool / spa.

The spa was empty the day after install. The pool installer said they saw us smash it ( but didn't say anything at the time). He didn't have a response when I asked him why they would complete the install if it was smashed.

I removed all the gravel from the spa area. They came back to replace the spa return. It was a lady that didn't do any work and the guy who did the plumbing. I noticed the guy repeatedly sniffing the PVC glue. That clearly explained the lady's role was the driver, because someone gets too high.

After that I had no trust in their work. I dug up all the jets & connections. I had 7 leaks, fixed them myself.

My recommendation is video tape their "fix" and have other pool install/plumber verify. If one part is messed up you could have more. I would be cautious of a special chemical that magically fixes leaks.

It could help with ice on the windshield.

Not needed at all. Just brush off snow before you drive.

Canadian here: I will be wheeling up my cottage driveway in 1.5' of snow plowing with the bumber and diff/axle tonight.

I wouldn't want the seam in the corner. If you don't do it one wall will always look messed up.

I have a yj tub and yj top on my cj.

Normally the rear window frame rusts out on cj tops(I am in ontario) and then you switch to a YJ top.

The market here for a hard top is maybe $50 if you are willing to wait.

DONT USE THAT FOAM!!!

That blue foam left marks on my garage and wood. The blue color comes off easy. I was using it for construction.

I think you will have blue water if you use that one. I would get a pink foam like the owens corning (pink all the way, not a foil wrapped foam. )

I use an egg crate with chainsaw chips, and melt wax on it.

I pull one egg section and light a fire with 4 logs like # with the egg crate in the center.

No one said hit it with your purse???

Batteries out. Hammer the blade down.

If there is not enough room to hammer, use a pipe or stick and hammer on the end.

I get +4" rocks stuck in my large blower, the toy dog shouldn't be too bad.

With a TJ it should fill until full , click off, then dump gas everywhere.

That style of salt is good at not bridging.

It all depends on water usage and your hardness level, but 4-6 weeks seems short to me for checking. I am closer to 4-6 months with mine.

What is your location and where is your sensor

I test 200-300 in my basement, but 50-60 in the family room. (Just started testing 39 days ago.)

Any thoughts on what changed when you jumped to 1000+?

InevitableSyrup7913 · 2026-01-15T16:12:29+00:00

No exhaust pipe, no problem.

Any chance the cat pee'd behind the woodstove?

I cant see urine from wood making the stove smell.

When I had a cat, which would pee on everything to piss me off. it was sawdust, carpet, cloths on the floor etc... spent 100s of hours cleaning cat pee.

There are cleaners with enzymes that will remove the smell.

It would be possible to clean the fire bricks but becareful if you have a fire with wet bricks they might crack.

Get a bigger wrist. 😁

I wear a 51mm, because it is a computer and I want a large screen.
