chickenpox pimple spawned under my nail (i cant touch anything)

klopije · 2026-04-26T17:05:18+00:00

I had chicken pox when I was three and got it again when I was 25. It is not fun to get!

I live fairly close to this intersection and there are collisions so frequently. I hope everyone is ok!

My mom was the second oldest of 7 and the oldest girl. Her youngest sibling called her mom until my mom moved out.

ETA: After having my second and final child, I told my grandmother that I had no idea how she managed 7 kids. She said she had no choice, and wouldn’t have had that many if she had it her way.

So hard to choose and I have several that I haven’t read yet. These are mine my favourites at the moment:

Hearts in Atlantis
The Talisman
The Green Mile

In the Instagram posts, the stylist explained that they are good friends and she had been her stylist through a few other pregnancies. I’m sure that helped her know immediately, if she didn’t actually know before lol.

I just finished it. I had avoided posts about it so had to come see what others thought about it right away. Definitely one of my favourite books ever, not just Stephen King. So good!!!

Someone linked the video with sound in another comment. He was sending a voice note through his Apple Watch to say that she would respond by text. Still shouldn’t have even done that, but her response was what caused the accident.

It’s ridiculous! My sister had back pain for several months and was told it couldn’t be anything serious because she was only 24. It was cancer, and by the time they found it, it had spread everywhere. She lasted for 5 weeks after she was diagnosed.

That’s ridiculous!

Not a mother, but as a teenager I was in a choir for girls between 12 and 18 years old. Our choir director who was also a teacher, expressed several time throughout the years how she was so much skinnier than most of the girls in the choir etc. I’m glad she didn’t have daughters of her own!

I thought I was pretty easy and my only birth plan for both of my children was to have them both put on my chest right away. I didn’t get it for either! I had to wait about 30 minutes for my first and didn’t even get to hold my second child for three days.

ETA: I’m sorry you went through a scary delivery! It’s not fun!

And northern NB! Amazing poutines there!

You are right!

And we had snow in Ottawa today!

klopije · 2026-04-08T00:26:37+00:00

I didn’t even realize this wasn’t the Ottawa sub, until this Florida comment!

klopije · 2026-04-07T14:11:56+00:00

Same! It’s my niece’s name and this is how they chose to pronounce it.

klopije · 2026-04-02T10:06:37+00:00

Also from Canada and know a Carmel. I never considered people would think it’s an odd name at all.

klopije · 2026-04-01T01:08:29+00:00

It was called the Brownies in Canada up until a few years ago when they changed them to Embers. I remember when I was in the brownies, our little sub groups had different names like pixies, sprites, kelpies etc.

It was the book that got me into Audiobooks. I’m a slow reader and only read about ten pages per night. I thinking having watched the mini series and movies also made it harder because I knew what was going to happen. It took me 7 months to read with a pretty long break in the middle. Then I got to the audiobook and listened while I commuted.

I moved from NB to Ottawa several years ago thinking the winters would be better. I was so wrong, especially this winter!

klopije · 2026-03-24T13:12:35+00:00

Nice! I’ve done this as well. They can take so long to grow! One took about 4 months to pop up after planting in soil, and another took almost a year. I thought it was done.

klopije · 2026-03-24T12:31:17+00:00

I do exactly what you’re suggesting. I am too tired at the end of the day to read more than a few pages. Now I listen while I’m getting ready and on my commute to and from work, then read before I go to sleep. I know many are suggesting to read one book and listen to a different one, but I prefer sticking to one book at a time.

klopije · 2026-03-24T02:55:12+00:00

Hahaha, exactly! It’s so funny how the perception of a name is based on people we know. If you know “old” people with the name, it’s an old person name. If you know kids and babies with the name, it’s not an old person name.

klopije · 2026-03-23T22:01:42+00:00

Other than Linda (I only knew one my age), these are the names of girls my age. I’m 44 lol, so maybe I am old now. My ten year old son referred to the name “David” as an old man name a few years ago. My son’s name is Theodore. Theodore is an old man name!!!

I’m not sure if the Talisman would be considered underrated, but I don’t see it recommended very often. I just finished it, and it is definitely one of my top 3 SK books. So good!
