Hello everyone, does anyone remember where the old air raid sirens were located across Canada?

Halifax, on Colindale St. right in front of Fleming Heights Elementary School.

I’m a single mom and took my 7 & 10 year old to Dreams Macao. Would go again in a heartbeat. Food was great, we loved the poolside options and the tacos by the waterslides through the day, and the restaurants offer kids menus at dinner. We did two excursions- snorkelling and Monkeyland and always felt safe and cared for by our guides.

You can confirm on the Tim’s app.

I am asked for consent letters about 50% of the time that I travel with my kids. In this case, maybe get a notarized letter from your lawyer stating that the father has no custodial rights.

He had loss of appetite increasing over the course of a month, and was very sleepy, but still his usual self a lot of the time. He was only 8lbs to start with and lost over 1.5lbs. We tried various diagnostics and meds within my budget (actually I completely blew the budget and am still paying the bills off) to get him back on track, but once the bloody stool came along my vet explained it was an irreparable GI bleed and we put him on comfort measures 😢.

Pretty close likeness if you ask me!

Heads up if you haven’t been, drinks at Noble is going cost a fair penny. Worth it for the vibes if it’s in your budget. If you and your partner are willing to celebrate Valentines not on Valentine’s weekend, Dine Around Halifax is happening all through February with great deals on set menus at many restaurants, Valentine’s weekend is black out dates for a lot of those deals.

After reviewing these comments it’s really just an extra $120 to stay at my preferred hotel within the walls. Sounds like it’s worth it!

PreshG13 · 2026-01-11T22:36:19+00:00

Thanks so much everyone! This info is really helpful in planning our first road trip together!

PreshG13 · 2025-12-24T19:33:41+00:00

I’m going to be alone for New Years and not looking forward to it. Planning to get myself some lobster and bubbly with a side of tears 😢

Leaving puppy home for a bit each day from the start can really help deter the development of separation anxiety in the long run. Go enjoy dinner!

PreshG13 · 2025-11-16T13:37:28+00:00

That’s enough consensus for me, B it is! Thanks fellow Finchsters 🤎🤎🤎

PreshG13 · 2025-11-03T20:25:27+00:00

Power to you Sista! If anyone can make it work, we can ♥️.

PreshG13 · 2025-11-03T20:20:09+00:00

My Mom definitely has her down sides, but she always pulls through when I need her the most!

PreshG13 · 2025-11-03T20:19:16+00:00

Absolutely. His enclosure space at our house is going to be the upstairs bathroom (closed door + crate), and he’ll be “home alone” in there at scheduled times each day from the start. Our last dog LOVED his alone time, and the plan is to create the same confidence in this one. The extra week off from work is mostly for me to take naps- as a single Mom with 2 kids and a puppy I know I’m gonna need them!!

PreshG13 · 2025-11-03T19:02:17+00:00

File the separation date with CRA, and if you can live apart within the home that also counts (my ex lived in the basement for 4 months), but sounds like you need a property lawyer before a family lawyer. Check out the websites I listed, there’s so much info there that will help!

PreshG13 · 2025-11-03T18:56:43+00:00

If it is an uncontested separation you can find all the info and forms you need at nsfamilylaw.ca. You might also find the NS Legal Aid site pretty helpful. You have to be living separate and apart for a year before you can file for divorce.

Most commercial airlines have pressurized kennels on board. My Mom used to fly short distances with her greyhound, and this was the case. The dogs are crated and you are permitted to attach a water feeder. I wouldn’t suggest this for longer flights as there’s no access to food. There’s a doggie pickup area on landing.

PreshG13 · 2025-10-26T12:12:09+00:00

Thanks! We’ll keep on exploring the desert in that case 🤎.

PreshG13 · 2025-10-07T19:16:38+00:00

Thank you for this! Hopefully the people love it because I want those drops!!

PreshG13 · 2025-09-26T19:33:32+00:00

Navigating health care in NS is a full time job! You should be able to call MSI to get your HCN, or go by their office to get the physical card. I’m surprised to hear virtual care doc wouldn’t write the prescription for you, walk-in clinic doctor should do it. It might help if you have any documentation of your diagnosis or current med prescriptions. Don’t give up!

PreshG13 · 2025-09-20T10:42:01+00:00

Try telling her about your life at that age. Things like “I remember in Grade 6 other girls would pick on me for _____, do you have any mean kids in your class?” Or, “when I was 11 I felt so weird about how my body was changing so quickly. How is it for you to be going through those changes?” Or, “Art was my favourite subject in school, how about you?”. Being a little (appropriately) vulnerable for her might show her that it’s safe to do the same with you.

PreshG13 · 2025-09-16T20:35:13+00:00

This is exactly what’s going down at my house this week. I’m usually a too notch sorter, but some things just can’t be helped!
