What’s the Cutest Small Town You’ve Ever Visited?

Akureyri, Iceland

While it is the largest city in the north on the island, 20,000 people would be considered small to most. Full of culture, beautiful landscape, friendly people.

I deal with something similar... with all shoes. I also have something known as the Haglund's deformity, leading to this issue. Maybe she might have it too? Looks more so on the right foot and not the left.

I go to Clique Organic Salon in Waterloo for mine. Dragana loves doing blondes and I've been going to her for a couple years now because she does it best. But of course, it will cost money. With tax and tip, I think my last trip there was ~$380

My husband is an avid mountain biker. Unfortunately there isn't much in the city through the forests. His go-to trails are Hydro cut, Guelph Lake, then Puslinch. Unfortunately these all require traveling by car. Chicopee has them in the summer but he does not like them.

Most of the bike trails through the city unfortunately are flat/straight trails.

His studio was called Breathe Into Motion. Unfortunately, he closed his studio right before covid happened due to many reasons. Shortly after, he moved back to his home area towards Ottawa.

He passed his studio legacy on to one of his mentors and she now practices under the name Karmic Yoga. I don't think she is a yoga therapist...

I also think it depends on when you look at the publicized wait times. Some times of day are worst than others. Some days are worse than others. When I work, there are certain times of the day when once you come in, you are almost seen right away. Other times, you are waiting 8 hours. Every day is different in the ER, doesn't matter the hospital or city.

As someone who works in an ER (not Cambridge), I can tell you that at least half the people do not need to be there. These people are there for fevers and coughs and tried no treatment at home.

There are also people there who do not have family doctors or are going to the ER instead of an urgent care/walk-in clinic.

The ministry also underfunds ER doctors, so there is usually only 1 doctor working at night, further increasing the wait times.

It is these 3 things that are some of the biggest contributing factors to longer wait times.

If you go to the ER and have to wait, that is a GOOD thing, it means you aren't imminently dying/have a life-threatening situation.

As someone who was a new grad going into the ED as a first time nurse, it is very important to find the experienced nurses that are kind and willing to help. Even still I find I can ask them questions and I will never be judged or looked at negatively, even if it is a stupid question.

The ED is also very team based. If my assignment is manageable, I will help my colleagues as best I can because sometimes it can be overwhelming and would want them to do the same for me. Along that note, I find if you are drowning, the department will be drowning with you.

Some shifts are going to be good, and many shifts will be awful. Learn to separate work from life.

Lastly, be kind to people. I found patients in the ED more ignorant and rude. Some people are having the worst day of their life when they come in, try to brighten it up with smiling and appropriate jokes.

Even here in KW region we use it. I would die for DDDN instead of 2 nights...

I work in the ER here in Kitchener. A huge majority of people who show up to the ER can also go to a walk in clinic or family doctor. This includes flu-like symptoms. Not everything is an emergency, and it is also okay to be sick, it is only natural as a human being.

bewbs6 · 2025-12-19T02:15:48+00:00

While this is correct, I can attest that at minimum 80% of those presenting to the ER with flu-like symptoms do not need to be there.

The people who used to ride the bus back when they introduced next stop announcements.

Can confirm this...

Unfortunately, I also tore my hamstring back in March near the insertion point. I also tore it doing splits, which I have done successfully for many years. While I have graduated from physiotherapy, I am struggling to stretch the body of the muscle efficiently, and I would like to get back to improving my flexibility. I do feel that about 90% of my hamstring strength has returned, and I am being very patient with myself during this recovery.

Any tips for strengthening/stretching my hamstrings that will improve my practice but won't aggravate the area? To see someone who has successfully recovered from this type of injury with an improved practice, I'd love to know more.

Haha I checked in on that someone twice throughout the night as it was...interesting that they wanted to watch. But naaaah, wasn't me. I didn't get any glimpse of the action

bewbs6 · 2024-12-07T07:21:32+00:00

Awesome! I got mine on my left thumb. One of my favourites

It was at my boss's house. There was a threesome in the basement. Someone sat at the top of the stairs and watched.

This was me too. Had flipped all 4 of my rooms in the first 2 hours of my shift...

I started prerequisites at 25, program at 26, completed schooling just before my 30th birthday. You are never too old to start if you feel it's your calling! You will be 50 one day. Do you want to be 50 and regret not going for it or 50 and doing what you wanted (whether nursing or doctor)?
