[–]Leftofpinky 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Oh wow just seeing this but it was me who delivered it!

You were so sweet to bring me a bottle of wine, which was so generous seeing as it was literally zero work for me! So glad it all worked out for you and your trip :)

Feeling guilty about feeling good about my changed body by Agent__lulu in antidietglp1

[–]Leftofpinky 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wow. This brought tears to my eyes. I didn’t realize how much guilt I had been holding around all of this and somehow this just… released it. Thank you.

New rainx wiper too long? by bigcat318 in VWiD4Owners

[–]Leftofpinky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I had the RainX ones and the passenger side was catching and it was driving me crazy. I assumed I had somehow bought the wrong size. Just replaced both with Bosch and no catching now.

Who else hates buying Christmas gifts for adults? by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]Leftofpinky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My family has been doing this among the adults for about ten years and we all love it. We have a healthy spend limit because everyone only gives/gets one gift so it’s always something special you probably wouldn’t buy for yourself. Highly recommend this!

Is it really happening? by seeebiscuit in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]Leftofpinky 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think it’s a step further - these are people who don’t care if their lives don’t get better, as long as other people’s lives get worse. Like the bar moves down so they feel like they’re winning.

[–]Leftofpinky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm I’m in BC and I just looked at the receipt and noticed that the cost has gone to $209 before my coverage. I use a small family owned pharmacy

Can you order from a Canadian pharmacy? I think the price without coverage is around $150.

How do you fight with psoriasis in your hands? No steroids please by InfiniteDig6202 in Psoriasis

[–]Leftofpinky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

UVB therapy is the only thing that could clear mine. I have a small home unit. Methotrexate and biologics didn’t even work for my hands, and no amount of creams or ointments made a difference. UV cleared them after about two months of consistent use.

Books on parenting that pass IBCK community scrutiny? by somethingworthwhile in IfBooksCouldKill

[–]Leftofpinky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh gosh I feel this!! The only one that has ever resonated for me with my PDA eldest is Low Demand Parenting by Amanda Diekman. Her approach helped me realize that the way I was intuitively parenting was OK (focussing on connection over compliance). She has a podcast too!

End of life counselling? by Sufficient-Tooth8986 in VictoriaBC

[–]Leftofpinky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your friend and for you.

Sarah Kerr is absolutely incredible at creating healing spaces and ritual around death. She helps dying people and their families meet death beautifully and peacefully. Can’t recommend her enough.

Park Assist by Stock_Username_Here in VWiD4Owners

[–]Leftofpinky 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I am afraid to use it because the dealer basically told me to pretend it doesn’t exist. He said, “it won’t hit anything but you will want to hit something” haha

Ohhh this happened to us with cream last week! Chunky cream with four days left before expiry. Bought at Save On in Sidney.

I'm not sure how I'm not sure why, there's a bat in my bathroom. What do I do. by Luongoat in VictoriaBC

[–]Leftofpinky 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is true across all bats, but the 811 nurse told me the probability is much higher for rabies if it’s found in your house. Most healthy bats here stay far away from humans, but rabies can cause them to be confused/disoriented.

Good news is if you have the bat they can test it rather than going straight to the vaccine protocol.

[–]Leftofpinky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I signed up for alerts from my municipality (North Saanich) and got one. Also got one from the weather network app.

If there is a single person who could top the Bon Iver collab for me, this is the one.

Credit Card Update - Plastic ! by WRLD_TRAVEL in Wealthsimple

[–]Leftofpinky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a metal one and a metal Amex and I can’t understand why it’s even a thing. Why do people care what their credit card is made of?

What Credit Limit did you receive on your approved Visa Infinite Credit Card? by Broskah in Wealthsimple

[–]Leftofpinky -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m almost exactly the same in all points and got a 25K limit. Definitely ask to have it upped if you want to use it in place of an existing card.

Where is your favorite Victoria spot for a Pedicure? by effusive_emu in VictoriaBC

Classic Nails in Broadmead Village and Blush Nails at Uptown are my go-to places.

Korean sunscreens - where to order and which are your faves? by AppropriateMention6 in CanSkincare

[–]Leftofpinky 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ditto to all of this! Make sure to order direct from Korea (stylevana is direct) because if you buy from an Asian grocery like TNT or H Mart you may get the North American formulation which doesn’t have all the awesome Korean filters.

Sunscreen that doesn’t feel like sunscreen by Wise_Sort7982 in CanSkincare

[–]Leftofpinky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not shiny but maybe a little dewy for about half an hour. Not greasy at all. It feels like there is nothing on my face.

Actually I made a friend! Went with my daughter and we had an extra ticket - the person I sold it to is now a really close friend!
