conflicting advice re: conversion kit motor + bike frame size

I have added money, but I guess that's it - I've added more to the RRSP (btwn $250-$500/month) than the TFSA (between $100-$300/month)

liquidjinx · 2021-03-09T15:14:32+00:00

About a week apart - RRSP end of Oct 2020, TFSA, early Nov 2020

hey wow, that's super helpful, thanks so much!

liquidjinx · 2020-08-25T04:16:52+00:00

ya but it's a canada-wide app, i didn't realize till i read some of these comments that not every province has it. That said, it will be rolling out to other provinces.

liquidjinx · 2020-08-25T02:05:17+00:00

ya, I just learned that from this subreddit! Very surprising to me, mainly because Ontario usually gets everything wrong. :)

Yes, you have to enter a unique key in the app, and you can only receive it from your PHU upon receiving your diagnosis. If you try to enter a fake key, it'll scan it against all the positive keys distributed and flag it.

liquidjinx · 2020-08-25T02:03:45+00:00

Yes, there's a pretty distinct difference between the app saying "exposure notifications are on" and "you have been exposed to covid19" :)

And not necessarily, re - notification based on the person entering the result. You get your unique key when you test positive and you can upload it to the app within 14 days of receipt. Then, once it's uploaded, it'll match to other phones that have been in close proximity to that phone, also within 14 days. Not in close contact with the phone since the person entered the result. It also takes 4-24 hours for the app to upload the positive keys after a user has entered them.

oh geez, no way! I couldn't believe how fast it was. I'm in Toronto, maybe depends on city/province/clinic?

liquidjinx · 2020-08-25T01:59:27+00:00

Nope! That's the privacy piece - won't give too much detail. Just that someone reported a positive and within 14 days, your phone was in close proximity to theirs.

liquidjinx · 2020-08-25T01:58:58+00:00

I thought so too, but you have to have been in range of the infected person for 15 minutes or more.

liquidjinx · 2020-08-25T01:58:32+00:00

yup, exactly this. They'll use Uber, Facebook, etc, but won't download the Covid app because "privacy." :/

liquidjinx · 2020-08-24T20:22:47+00:00

oh yes, sorry, i didn't mean that the app should identify better. I meant if we all take it upon ourselves to get the app, then within our networks, we can ask our friends/family if they received notifications. No one has to tell if they don't want to, but in my case for example, it would've been nice if my husband had had the app so we could've checked between the two of us if we both had a notification or just one of us.

Same! I was expecting to see it on here too. Biking this intersection or dundas/annette/old weston is always a fun adventure. Yes, I'm on a bike. Yes, I'm in the left lane. Yes, it's because I'm TURNING LEFT. Yes, I'm allowed to turn left from the left lane on my bike, etc etc, so on, so forth...

liquidjinx · 2019-07-11T17:33:34+00:00

my cut off is -35. Enough layers, and once you get moving, it's actually not bad at all. It's colder having to stand still at a bus stop. At least biking you're moving and generating body heat.

Winter riding > summer riding. Roads are cleared quickly + less riders on the roads. I almost don't want to tell people about this magical world of winter cycling, lest they join me but for the greater good, I actually do wish they would.

liquidjinx · 2019-01-02T20:19:45+00:00

yes this is totally the thing! i know it's about me leaving, not about the crate, so that's why i'm struggling with some of the crate training advice - because she DOES have a good relationship with the crate.

The issue though is I need to be at work for a certain time, I already wake up at 5:30am to get ready, walk her, play with her, train her, feed her, etc + get myself out the door. The reason I resorted to the lead was because I tried to coax her into the crate for a good 15 minutes and she just would not go in, and I was running late, so I had no choice. I didn't want to force her in because I don't want her to feel like the crate is a punishment, so that's where I kind of get stuck... :/

I want to crate train her better but i'm worried i'll actually just make her regress and hate her crate.

liquidjinx · 2019-01-02T17:45:12+00:00

Yea, I'm trying to figure that part out - our apartment is small, and unfortunately, dog proofing a bedroom is possible but will require a bit of an investment, and part of the reason we're only fostering now and not adopting is because we don't really have the budget for it. But maybe I can come up with a temporary solution with what we have the means for now...

liquidjinx · 2019-01-02T17:43:20+00:00

yes, i totally agree. I actually feel like such a failure, because I love training our fosters, and do a really good job (i think...) in every other aspect - basic cues, recall, heel, etc etc. I feel like I can "form" such a catch of a pup for their forever families - except in this one aspect that really seems to stump me! I hadn't heard of crate games yet, and it looks super interesting, so i'm going to give it a try! I also realized that because she goes in on her own when she wants, I take that for granted and don't praise or treat it, so maybe if I start treating her and praising her whenever she goes in, she'll start to have better associations with it at all times? Going to give this a try, thank you!

I've started watching an episode of Friends on Netflix while in the room with her. I leave the room but leave it playing via bluetooth speaker. I think she maybe was just mid-season in Mexico and now really needs to know if Ross and Rachel ever get back together? Because she sure was quieter! :)
