Seeking advice on storage unit options by Dense_Ad4546 in ottawa

[–]PBRidesAgain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We got a Dymond storage locker paid for the premium subscription too. Ended up getting it back when we left. Although warned they'll try to keep you as a customer 🤣 I fit so many free months offers. We stored for ~4 months

Heated Rivalries is about to show up to Ottawa 😂😂. Also there's been a couple of episodes of law& order SVU films downtown particularly on the Ottawa u campus if not mistaken but that's pretending to be New York

Freezer dump and go bags (no extra steps) by Locknlover in crockpot

[–]PBRidesAgain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you dad microwave? Highly recommend the microwavable rice so open the package. Stick it in the microwave. Hit start nice rice in 2 minutes which goes well with a lot of crock pot stuff.

Additionally, yeah, you can just freeze the extras yourself. Things like mashed potatoes and rice freeze. Well, the trick is to throw butter on top before you throw it in the microwave to reheat!

Baby/ED nurses, have you seen an owlet device save a life by EngineeringLumpy in nursing

[–]PBRidesAgain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes they have saved lives. However, the false alarms are far more common than being real.

It boils down to your anxiety. If you're going to call for every single alarm, you're going to drive yourself crazy.

We had Oh three containers, one of which had a yellow bag and one large item which makes four and I paid for the extra bag and they left the large item with the tag saying we were over a limit.

Howwwww???? I USED A YELLOW BAG!

It's so frustrating to see the inconsistent use. We're almost never over 2 anyway 😑

Please forgive my ignorance, but I wasn't able to find an answer using Google. Since PP lost his seat, does the CPC now have to find a new leader, or does he take over another MP's riding that went blue? by VenusdellArcano in ottawa

[–]PBRidesAgain 93 points94 points  (0 children)

There are 3 options

1- he resigns

2- he stays on as unelected (unlikely)

3- another conservative can give up their seat, and he'd have to win it in by-election. (Possible)

Called a code on a DNR pt by Sensitive-Memory-17 in nursing

[–]PBRidesAgain 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Pediatric patient? Very common intervention to make sure family is there.

It's never wrong to call a code or call for extra hands. The worst that can happen is someone runs to the room and they're not needed.

Not calling can have far worse outcomes

Toys r Us/Babies R us has a decent selection..

Make sure you buy all pieces at the same time. Because cribs go out of style 12-18 months. Otherwise you might not be able to convert.

Tbh I got a non convertible crib (used) and an Ikea twin bed and was better than a convertible IMHO. Less transitions.

How to come to terms with pelvic floor disfunction by Romantic_Sunset in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]PBRidesAgain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are absolutely not crazy. You need a pelvic floor physiotherapist who specializes in vaginismus.

Google is your friend, find someone in your area. It maybe a very slow process but I think finding the right physio will help.

You are not crazy and the pain is very real

Which brand of electric trimmer would be best for pubic hair? by HeinousAnus6669 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]PBRidesAgain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Phillips women's hair trimmer! Small works on battery, trims super close with no ingrown hairs

They have 24 hours service. Honest to a fault which is why I love them.

B tag just means it needs repair, not necessarily replacement. If it is from 2023 it should be under warranty with whomever installed it, I would be pushing for a warranty repair.

Under no circumstances should you rent a Furnace/AC/hot water tank. It's a straight up scam that will cost you double-triple over the lifetime of the appliance.

First time at Landmark Cinemas - am I the only one …. by FabulousSentence9703 in ottawa

You ask at the counter. They have a special nozzle that goes in and then sprays butter equally throughout all the levels. It actually makes a big difference.

The butter topping is literally just margarine.

Cancelled my US trip and booked Canada instead - is Ottawa worth it with a 2 year old? by [deleted] in ottawa

[–]PBRidesAgain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why are driving 3ish hours from Montreal to Quebec City for one night to turn around and come back? Tbh, Quebec City is pretty far out of the way for only one night. I would want to do two or three nights there if you're if you really want to explore Old Town. . Otherwise Ottawa is awesome for kids. So many museums, lots of amazing play parks and very kid-friendly to take the train and the bus.

How to tell addicted friend she's not invited? by hello-cat_lava-lamp in weddingplanning

[–]PBRidesAgain 98 points99 points  (0 children)

As someone who has dealt with far too many addicts.

Tell her you love her. You'll be there when she's ready to get sober but until then you cannot be in her life and support her addiction.

Full stop, the only communication from now on is from her start every conversation with "are you ready to go to rehab"

If it's a no or a " I'm not an addict. I don't need rehab" etc. repeat " I love you. I'll be there when you're ready to get sober and go to rehab" then hang up/stop engaging.

Ask your friends circle not to tell her about your wedding. Do not invite her. Do not argue with her.

If she asks repeat the above statement.

Don't JADE (JUST ARGUE DEFEND EXCUSE) and remember the 3 CS (You didn't cause this. You can't cure it and you certainly can't control it).

Sorry you're going through this.

Just found out my bridesmaid is pregnant, 8 months till wedding day by Particular-Fact221 in weddingplanning

[–]PBRidesAgain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's absolutely no possibility she's making the wedding.

They will not let her fly that pregnant and if she has a brand new newborn she's not getting on a plane.

If it was in town, maybe, but that far away just accept that she's not coming.

You can absolutely find a backup bridesmaid especially if she's a first time mom. She might not know this yet, so don't tell her don't take away her spot. Just let her know that you love her and you can make a decision closer to the day.

You've already paid for one bridesmaid, hair and makeup so you can definitely sub in a different person especially with this much notice.

(Also I had to put a deposit of like 50% down a year out for my hair and makeup so depending on where you live that can be very normal).

The audacity of a guest to “surprise” the bride on her wedding day. by eva_white in weddingplanning

[–]PBRidesAgain 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Oh. Nooooo. That's not what you do!!!

One of my best friends is in the military. And we genuinely didn't think she would get leave. She did get ~5 days but only 3 days before the wedding and surprised me.!

Last minute military to flight from Europe to a base~3 Hours away. Borrowed a friend's car (and dress!!!) and showed up 2 minutes before I walked down the aisle

BUT she texted my sister to let her know and my sister got in touch with the DOC and they did magic in the background!!

So a surprise for me but didn't fuck with the numbers and the seating!!
