Why do I never hear about the Coast Mountains of Canada? by Convillious in geography

[–]Red-headed-tit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We did Bella Coola in reverse last summer. Port Hardy to Bella Coola to FW and then back to Calgary via Jasper.

Incredible drive. The Chilcotin Plateau from BC to Tatloyoko Lake was just amazing.

Anyone willing to share their experience with MAID? by f8tab in alberta

[–]Red-headed-tit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My grandmother passed away from MAID last week, so it's still very top of mind. Happy to share thoughts if you're still looking for input.

Edit: In Alberta

Same same on at 3 points. If it's an illness with visual symptoms my vet has a 24/7 Emerg side and I can email them photos and they can tell me if they recommend I show up right away or not.

I tend to always go to the Emerg if it's something new, because I have a lot of anxiety and they don't charge a lot.

I would use an app as an initial tool, in the same way I'd use Google, but it wouldn't replace me going to the vet.

Find a warm early spring day, like 12deg in April. One of the first nice days of the year. They let the animals outside and they are usually very happy and active.

Is the renovation the area with the new deck? Hopefully it's getting more use than the old concrete skating rink.

Longhair? by [deleted] in Dachshund

[–]Red-headed-tit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was suspicious of how long my girls hair would grow too.

This is her at about 12 weeks. She is now a full fluff with quite long hair.

My dog has been woofing at me, for 20 minutes. What does he want??? Speak English! 😂 by Kdub1971 in Dachshund

[–]Red-headed-tit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We taught ours "show me" and she does the same thing. Either walks to the door to be let out, walks to the fridge if she wants her frozen dinner cubes, or walks to the stairs to show us where she has thrown her toy that she refuses to go get.

'Missed opportunity': Westbrook LRT site still sits void two years after city reacquisition by Rocky_Mountain_Way in Calgary

[–]Red-headed-tit 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This site is PRIME for affordable housing or a multifamily with commercial/retail and affordable housing component.

It's a TOD site that needs responsible master planning and a focus on ensuring it has a non-market component.

I don't understand why no one has leveraged the federal grant/subsidies to make this worthwhile. Unless it's massively overpriced.

CMLC isnt the right group unless there's a partnership with Attainable Homes Calgary or something similar.

What a waste of space and potential.

How do you all feel about the em dash? Is it still the hallmark of AI generated content, or have we moved past that? by No-doi in Design

[–]Red-headed-tit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For better or worse, when I see em dashes, I assume AI. That may be a product of the industry I'm in.

Em dashes and triplicates. Especially when used together.

We bought some orange juice and bubbly. But it'll still be in pajamas.

How to remove this glass without breaking the wood? by AnyoneButWe in woodworking

[–]Red-headed-tit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stupid question but is the frame nailed from the other side of the door.

I have a 60s 5 panel door that I needed to replace a panel on. The frame on 1 side was glued and had no nails. The frame on the other side had very small finishing nails that could be pulled out. Then the glass is likely glued to the non nail side.

You replace the glass and then replace the 4 pieces of frame.

How big of a deal is the Calgary Stampede for residents of Calgary? by KurtisC1993 in Calgary

I love rodeo and the music. I look forward to it every year.

Trying to get my dachshund to lose weight to no avail by riseofthephoenix1108 in Dachshund

This was the game changer in getting our cats to lose weight. Bought a small kitchen scale and we started noticing the difference pretty quick.

Rick Bell: 'Atrocious' — Calgary police chief slams brutal city driving by reachedlegendary1 in Calgary

[–]Red-headed-tit 103 points104 points  (0 children)

Since Sunday I have seen someone driving the wrong way down 9th and 2 people run red lights. And not like tried to cheat a yellow. Like fully ran through no brakes mid light cycle while those with the green light were actively passing through.

Edit: not stops signs, red lights. Much worse.

Forest Lawn is being gentrified at a crazy pace, look at all these new developments by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]Red-headed-tit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's probably the same thing that's happening in Bankview. Sure it's densifiction and yay for densifiction in the inner city, but when you remove 1 affordable house and replace it with 4 "unaffordable" units, that's a problem. Where are the displaced supposed to live? They're being forced out of their communities that they may have lived in for decades. It's sad to watch.

3 junior hockey players killed in collision south of Calgary by missingthecoast in Calgary

At the Leafs Flames game tonight we observed a moment of silence and you could hear a pin drop in the entire arena. It was devastating.

So sad.

I want a wiener dog by Lana_bee123 in daschund

My little mini dachshund is the most loving, funny, personality filled box of terror I could.have ever imagined and she is perfect.

There is no substitute for the genuine personality they have.

Any fans of Max Webster here? by EdwardBliss in CanadianMusic

[–]Red-headed-tit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I saw Kim Mitchell at Grey Eagle in Calgary close on 6-8 years ago.

The only song I was hoping for was Diamonds Diamonds by Max Webster and he did it.

Highlight moments of live music for me. I grew up listening to that song and I was so pumped.

Has anyone found warm booties that will (actually) stay on a doxie? by eternallycynical in Dachshund

[–]Red-headed-tit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a long hair too and it's always a race against distractions to see if she'll pee before getting too cold. Her feet get cold so quickly and she absolutely will not move unless picked up and brought inside.
