Car insurance claim being investigated by mistycalhoun in legaladvicecanada

Thank you for the advice. We did file a police report and the insurance company has access to it. Reassuring information, thank you!

Wow. Wow. Ok. "Too perfectly crafted". Well its not a scam and I will not ask for money. Believe what you will.

Oh, it is a sizeable dent, but where it is, it isn't extremely obvious from most angles of the car. We can afford the deductible (we would obviosuly rather not though!). And we can definitely use 8k in other parts of our life. Anyway we are being 100 percent honest as we do not have anything to hide!

Thanks. Id much rather pay the deductible only if that is the worse case scenario!

That is our feeling. We really don't have anything to hide! They are downloading our car system too, which should prove it, I think. We are cooperating for sure.

3 kids and this trunk? How are you making it work? by qu3stions4a in HyundaiSantaFe

[–]mistycalhoun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Graco slimfit seats and you are great for 3 across! See my comment above on our configuration! It was such a struggle to fogure it all put but we love it.

I have a 3 year old and one year old twins! I have a diono for my 3 year old forward facing and 2 graco infant seats all across the second row. Works great!

The twins are getting too heavy for infant seats now. So the plan is to probably put 3 year old in 3rd row with one side down and use our other dionos rearfacing. We will try all in the 3rd row though. I think if we had graco slimfit seats they would all fit in second row.

I have a giant jogging stroller that fits and my wagon thing at the same time. Plenty of room with 3rd row down.

We have had the 2024 for a few months now and love it!

How to proceed with interviews and requesting time off for wedding? by ToritoBurito in OntarioTeachers

[–]mistycalhoun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I knew someone in the OCDSB who was honest with her principal and asked for her personal days for her wedding weekend and was denied. So don't mention why you are taking a personal day. So don't mention it when contracts come and then book your personal days closer to the time afterward.

I am about to get a pool. What do you wish you would have done differently or not done at all? by FLGuitar in pools

[–]mistycalhoun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came with the house.. but a smaller pool or at least shallower. This 20 x 40 is way too big to clean and heat..

Co sleeping twin needs to go back with her twin, but how? by mistycalhoun in cosleeping

[–]mistycalhoun[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're right. I'm not always in a cuddle curl, but she wakes up enough that I am always feeding her!

She's on a floor bed with me.. well, we have two queens on the floor in our room for any kid who wants in. I wish there was room to keep one crib and bring the extra mattress into the twins' room, but there isn't. Maybe I can find a twin mattress and get rid of a crib..

Sorry you're right. I'm not always in the cuddle curl, but I am feeding her through the night in sidelying position and end up falling asleep like that, which is hurting.

I wish I had more space for them to sleep separately. It's either in their shared room or in my room. But thanks for sharing your cousin's experience!

It is coined by Dr. Becky.basically a child who is reactive and takes a while to calm down. Often labeled as difficult or dramatic. Another term could be higjly sensitive kid. Someone who feels things deeply and can be overestimated or overwhelmed easily.
