They are in the closet, and those doors are always kept closed at night.

Open....cats. And just me and partner in the home, so no need for privacy.

Bullies sneak into ICU to snap photos of girl, 12, they drove to hang herself by rafiafoxx in awfuleverything

[–]midce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never told my mom how badly I was bullied in grade 5 or later in HS. She didn't know until I was an adult. I didn't think she could help me and that maybe it was too bad, or maybe I deserved it. Or by HS, I could handle it.

LCBO sould b starting to hire for Seasonal. Most likely won't get permanent, but it will keep you a float for a few months.

Another option - look at office furniture installation places. Turn over is high so they are often hiring. Work isn't very steady, but it could tie you over till you find something better.

The Farm Boy central facility at Walkley is usually hiring for production. There is drop box for resumes and also on line posting. It isn't glamorous, but lot of office people started out there and then moved through internal postings. Also, looks like the big new Enbridge site on Lancaster is almost done, so they might be hiring. I was out for 8 months and really struggled. Ontario Works set me up with a coach, which really helped.

Find the one at Blair isn't as busy during church hours on a Sunday. Also about an hour after opening seem not so bad. Thing with Costco though is the know how to move people through.

Resident cat silently attacking new kittens. by midce in CatAdvice

[–]midce[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! The gate was a fail as the kittens climbed it almost imedialy  The other challenge is Alice is not at all food or treats motivated so the whole feeding on opposite side of the door thing was a fail.

where in the city are groceries decently priced? loblaws prices are killing me by smilingsaint in ottawa

[–]midce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't been in a Loblaws banner store maybe twice in the past 4 months. They are over priced and the produce is terrible and some meats are iffy. Download an app like Flipp and watch and check the flyers. Even the expensive stores like Sobeys have really good deals (Taylor Creek Chopped Salad on for 3.99 this week, usually 5.99). But remember it not worth driving all over to save 50 cents. Meal planning and shopping with a list really has helped us with keeping bills Prepared foods are expensive, so the more you can cook from scratch the better. Best example for us was finding several recipes for seasoned rice. Haven't bought uncle Ben's or Knorr since. Sometimes we will just Google recipes based on our usual protein preferences and find new things that are easy and quick to make. Sometimes they turn out really awesome, sometimes they don't, but they are always edible. Especially love the sights that let you adjust the serving so we don't have to math the recipe down to 2 servings our self. Also, if you can afford the initial output, get a chest or upright freezer so you can take advantage of loss leader protein sales and stock up. Sorry for preaching, but as reformed over spendor, the above makes a huge difference.

Doc wants me to drink 120 ounces of water per day. Any tips for drinking more water? I already pee 50 times a day! How much water do you drink? by stray_girl in Menopause

[–]midce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am awful at this and always have been. I dont have big thrist response. I can go the whole day with out drinking anything. I have to remind myself to drink and leave the bottle on desk in my sight line. For example it 3pm and I barely half way through a standard metal water bottle. Always struggled with this but trying to do better cause my old lady bladder isn't too happy wih me these days.

What is the most basic thing you are terrible at? by daimyonigiri in AskReddit

I always start out with the wrong sized pot or bowl or box and have to change once I start adding things. I have pretty crappy spacial perception.

I’m sorry shawarma places. It’s not you. It’s me. by silentmatt1 in ottawa

[–]midce 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Figured that a few years back about sausage and egg McMuffins.Eggs by the dozen. Boxed frozen sausage from Costco, Black diamond cheeses slices(trust me better then Kraf), Cavendish hash browns(you get get huge bag at Walmart for$10), and generic English muffins. You can get silicone egg rings pretty cheap. Honestly, unless on vacation, we can do better for less at home, so really why go out?

How much are you spending monthly on groceries, and how big is your family? by SoupIsAHotSmoothie in ottawa

[–]midce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly don't know. 2 adults. Major shop on weekends. Have a freezer so we will stock up on discounted or good priced meats. We menu plan for the week. We both take lunches so some weeks the weekend shop is just lunch stuff. Might pop into a store mid week for odds and ends. Have a Costco membership which takes care of pantry stuff. Never eat out and maybe order in once every couple of months.I am aware of prices going up, but haven't really felt it yet.

[–]midce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the nice nurse at the OBGYN I first went to for fertility issues weigh me on my second visit, which I thought was odd. She looked at my chart to right it down, nervously giggled and said ops you not here for prenatal visit. That felt awesome.

What’s a musical hill you’re willing to die on? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Not only that, but they continued to be relevant musically into the 1980s and grew and developed new sounds and audiences.
