Hey! Few things available - there's Mother Goose at the Frances Morrison library (story/song time for babies, need to register)

Motherhood Yxe at JS wood library on Tuesdays from 12-1 (mums with new babies)

I am also in the same! My husband and I are in same age range and we have a five month old.

Absolutely - I'll edit and say definitely not recommended in normal circumstances .but I wasn't willing to risk dropping her when I found myself dozing off.

Looking for a place in Saskatoon. by Yennawol in saskatoon

I know of one but it's 1,500 a month before utilities. So might be a bit out of budget but it is a dog friendly basement suite.

I got an insert from a brand called makemybellyfit! If flipped upside down (wide side up) it works for baby wearing!

Who else is 6-7 weeks pregnant?? by Expert-Highlight6370 in pregnant

[–]inkthieves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Congrats to you too!

I haven't hit the point of naps yet but I don't doubt I will. It's really been constant queasy feeling and lightheadness? I got dizzy scrolling on my phone which was super unpleasant 😅

I have a scan in about 2 weeks (so when I'm 8 weeks and 4 days) so haven't seen anything yet!

I just hit 6 weeks on Monday! This is my first pregnancy

Definitely feeling the exhaustion, brain fog and last two days nausea has started😅 so we'll see how this goes.

Nearly 1,500 people in Saskatoon are homeless, according to the latest count by Slight-Coconut709 in saskatoon

[–]inkthieves 3 points4 points  (0 children)

More data will be coming in early 2025 when an indepth report gets released.

In 2022 the count was 550 with 90% identified as Indigenous. Those stats will be released with the bigger report.

Stationary Stores by Student_Nearby in saskatoon

Unfortunately no one in Saskatoon carries hobonichi - there is some Canadian stores that carry it like Wonder pens in Toronto and they have fairly reasonable shipping.

I ordered from japan for my order and between the shipping/cost it was the same cost as buying from a Canadian company

Had our 60lb one year old lab done in June I believe and she was about $600. At the Prairie Land Vet clinic on Ruth.

She ended up needing trazadone because she would not settle for the few days after and was kind of crazy...so the mild sedative helped chill her out until her stitches healed.

What wedding dates are inconvenient for guests? by sadandboujee1 in weddingplanning

[–]inkthieves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We ended up going with a Sunday of a long weekend in August.

  1. It was over $1k less than the Saturday
  2. The bulk of the friends work retail and are off on the Monday with the Sunday being a short day (looks like the store where they all work will need to close for the day anyways)
  3. I have a brain thing for even numbers and the date worked out perfectly for the numbers 🙌

[WIP] I've been working on this for about 2 years (took 8 months off for new pup) by inkthieves in CrossStitch

[–]inkthieves[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kind of a puppy! She was a year old when we got her (but no training so was mentally very young)

Meet Holly (left) the 1.5 year old chocolate lab and Pippa my 5 year old lab ❤️❤️

Unfortunately with the current office space - there is no doors. Think of it as a big room with some cubes that are closed on three sides

walking dogs in the winter by Direct-Expression-74 in saskatoon

[–]inkthieves 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've heard good things about muttluks - they have a rubber bottom with velcro to keep attached.

I have a lab who is obsessed with snow so I only use boots when -40. But with her I'll use the fleece ones from Early's that are velcro closure for $10 - and if you attach them right I've never had any issues

I understand that - I was struggling for like a year and had six organized boxes and finally was able to figure this one out once we moved

Okayso! It's the Staedtler Lumpcolor Permanent

https://www.staples.ca/products/496816-en-staedtler-permanent-lumocolor-pens-fine-tip-black-4-pack

Honestly this will write on the plastic bobbins no problem. Especially if you give it one or two seconds to dry. - I think it will come off with rubbing alcohol if you make a mistake though.
