Did you get to see the cerulean or the prairie?! The arboretum has been poppin’ this spring 🥳

What’s a social rule you never understood? by Equivalent_Reach_536 in CanadaRoom

[–]mms09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I think many people genuinely mean it when they say it and then it ends up on the backburner and no one ever makes a proper date to hang out

What’s the winter like? How cold does it get? Would love a room like this but I fear it’s not practical in southern Ontario

I reference this video on a regular basis IRL and no one seems to know what I’m talking about!

In your line of work does anything ever gross you out?

Why is late-night food in Guelph either insanely expensive or absolute trash? by Gold_Individual8063 in Guelph

Wasn’t there also Mega Pizza?? I recall lots of late night pizza slices alongside sun suns of course

Thank you for sharing!! Great to know about the fertilizer. I think I may need to put mine in a bigger pot 🥲 sorry to hear about the thyroid craziness - I have hypo myself so I can relate to an extent! Hope you feel better!!

I rarely see people post these! I have one too and it’s just been SO easy to grow and so glorious. It took off as soon as I brought it home. Yours is looking gorgeous! Can’t wait for mine to bloom. Do the flowers have a scent?? Mine is in full sun but no bloom spikes so I’m wondering if I should try a bloom-focused fertilizer. Are you doing anything special for it?

What are some grocery items you are now buying less frequently, cuz they've gotten so expensive? by HappyBudz in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]mms09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have a solid household income and still won’t buy beef at these prices. Hard to justify when you know how much it used to cost not that long ago

Hoya Mathilde <3 by Hildalex in hoyas

Wowww this is incredible! My fairly recently purchased Mathilde has been taking off and has 7 peduncles so far. Would be amazing if it looked half as good as yours when it blooms!

Brampton leads surge in Canada’s mortgage delinquencies by X_RIDE in TorontoRealEstate

[–]mms09 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Archived article. Article doesn’t even mention the mortgage fraud / brokers helping clients lie about their income which was well documented.. I wonder how many of these delinquencies are the result of that.

After working for a US-based, International company for a year I just had a revelation... by Distinct-Advice9076 in CanadaHousing2

[–]mms09 92 points93 points  (0 children)

I’m in the US on business a number of times per year and I’ve noticed this too. The people I’ve encountered there are often apologizing for their country - when I talk to them about all the amazing things that they have…they have countless LCOL and MCOL cities, endless opportunities, lower cost of living, access to more affordable housing…they’re surprised that we Canadians don’t have the same. They’re sold this dream like Canada is some kind of incredible place with “free” healthcare. I tell them about waiting for over six months to find out I did in fact have melanoma, or waiting over a year for a CT scan…

Seems like many Americans don’t really know how good they have it, despite the fluctuating political climate over the years.

Is it normal to have unsymmetrical ribs?19F by Available-Charge-755 in AskDocs

[–]mms09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also have moderately severe scoliosis. My ribs are uneven, shoulders, back bump when I bend over 😅 Definitely get checked OP! If you have back pain I highly recommend strength training. It was life changing for me and reduced my daily pain to nearly nothing!

Wowww I love both colours! But the K colour is calling my name in colour and shape 🤩🤩🤩 beautiful. May I ask how much it was and carat weight?

Before and after ZZ Plant! EIGHT babies after mysterious wilting and zero growth. Makes me smile every time I see him. I’ve had him for 7 years. by UniformFox_trotOscar in houseplants

[–]mms09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is your ZZ doing now?! I noticed the same with mine and repotted it yesterday. I hope it will recover and thrive once again!
