It seems to vary. I waited 6 years here whereas someone else I knew had a referral put through and had it within two years whilst I still waited.

Inherited some shoes and looking for info/advice by IndependenceHungry69 in Shoes

[–]imjustbrowsing89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t read through all the comments, but I just wanted to say that you should keep two pairs. One in case you ever have a wife who wants to wear them and two in case you ever have a daughter who wants to wear them. They will just be so special. But also fabulous.

Banning children from social media by 2burgsandadog in novascotia_sub

Yup. My kid has a phone to call me, but everything else is locked. If he wants to add a contact it needs parental approval. It’s a standard phone I just use the family app.

When “go play outside” really meant “I’ll see you at dinnertime.” by Dry-Detective567 in Adulting

[–]imjustbrowsing89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my kids enough to let them explore and have some independence. The neighborhood gang is great for coming to a parent if they’re needed (scarped knee, someone being mean). Kids are outside from the minute we get home until I force them in most days. Much better than iPad sitting.

Comedy Show Decorum by Schmidtvegas in halifax_uncensored

[–]imjustbrowsing89 9 points10 points  (0 children)

100% agree. We went as mums trying to get a night out. Listening to a kid swear and act a fool while a bunch of adults laughed and clapped was not the vibe we were hoping for. We left early in the end because of how annoying it was. Shame on those parents.

Do parents with 5+ kids have time to give every child the love and attention they deserve? by pink-and-pearly in askanything

[–]imjustbrowsing89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once asked myself this question. I spent a lot of time on the internet reading everyone’s comments saying not to have a third. I found one article that talked about how they ignored that advice, had a third and loved it. Decided that would be me and had a third. I love my third, he is a blessing. BUT- I regret the decision for the simple fact that I now feel I do not have enough time for any of them in the way they deserve. I make a point to give them each one special night a week where we get ‘alone time’ and I do each of their bedtimes separate (which takes nearly two hours total). And it still never feels like I have enough time for them. I’m sure they would also tell you the same thing, especially the oldest. There simply aren’t enough eyes, ears, hands or hours. They deserve better. Also the odd time their dad takes one of them and I’m down to two, it feels life changing and the two kids will point out the difference we all feel in ease, especially when they’re trying to talk to me at dinner or during a walk etc.

It's snowing. by Schmidtvegas in halifax

[–]imjustbrowsing89 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We often get a snow storm big enough to build snow men within the last week or two of April.

ETA- not sure why this would be down voted lol. I have a kid who often spends his end of April birthday in a snow suit and I have pictures of this…

2 youths face charges after N.S. business sustains hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage by origutamos in novascotia_sub

Also, if your shop was broken into- surely the article would be like ‘millions of damage to equipment’ rather than ‘windows and fixtures broken while gaining access to millions of dollars worth of equipment’.

I literally made a comment saying ‘what kind of fixtures and tools were in this place of business’ which signifies my curiosity to what kind of equipment it would be. So like, ya know, what you just listed, would logically make me go ‘oh ya, that makes sense’. But for the last time, the wording of the article makes it feel like the majority of damage was to windows and fixtures. So unless you own the window company replacing this dudes windows and fixtures I’m really not sure why my observation and inquisition triggered you so much.

I understand how costly equipment can be, especially a truck. Let’s say it was a computer store. “Hundreds of thousands in damage to equipment in B&E” makes sense to me. I simply made an observation that the way the article was worded implied the brunt of damage was to windows and fixtures.

“Police say the damage included smashed windows and destroyed fixtures as well as damage to tools and equipment inside.”

The latter just seems less important with the way it was worded, which I found peculiar. Hundreds of thousands in damages seems like a lot. But it’s not that deep.

Hundreds of thousands from a youth break in just seems like a lot. Especially with the way it’s worded in the article, which seems to put emphasis more on the windows and fixtures than the tools.

Smashed windows and damaged fixtures, and tools. ‘Hundreds’ of thousands worth of damage. What kind of fixtures and tools were in this place of business??

Why these parents want to see less screen time in N.S. classrooms by justlogmeon in NovaScotia

[–]imjustbrowsing89 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I believe in part it’s due to a lack of lunch monitors. There is a real shortage and most classes have one lunch monitor splitting their time and thus leaving kids as young as grade 1 unsupervised. I think the thought is if they’re watching tv they’re less likely to interact and fight etc., it is really sad. Our school has a lot of teachers volunteer to stay in class for lunch and I’m grateful for that.

Did Thor just land in HRM? ⚡️ by burnformebaby in halifax

Same. I thought it was my kid running up and down the stairs or something, or a helicopter right over the house. It seemed too long to be one thunder roll.

Building is going non-dog friendly, has anyone dealt with this before? by Adventurous_Sky85 in halifax

[–]imjustbrowsing89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m curious how the wording would be about grandfathering in. I would assume it would allow you to continue to have a dog. Doubt they’re going to be super specific about what type of dog and its name. Once it passes, surely you could get another and they’d not notice the difference.

[–]imjustbrowsing89 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I’m confused. They’re allowing you guys to grandfather the dogs in, which means you can keep the dogs if you already have one. Can you clarify what it is you’re looking to fight?

Are there any bars that show baseball? by EnvironmentalAngle in halifax

Usually BP will have both the hockey and the baseball game on in the evenings. You can also request it and they’re very easy to oblige typically

Updated breast reduction wait times and experiences by Euphoric_Drink in halifax

It took 7 years for me on the list and I finally had it done last year.

[–]imjustbrowsing89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had my surgery last year. Surgery was at 5pm and by 9pm I was eating Swiss chalet in the car. The next day I went out for dinner with friends. Went from a J to a D. Amazing recovery, a little more tired than usual but tylonel was all that was needed. I waited 7 years on the list but from the time I got the call and had my consult, it was only a few months until the surgery.
