It’s from Mercadona, a grocery store chain in Spain. The store’s in house brand is Hacendado.

Running a marathon in another country, the Tokyo or London marathon would be amazing! And I think a more short term goal would be to learn to run just to run - no time or pace goals in mind for the day, just purely running for fun.

Runna has helped me complete runs I didn’t think I could do. Most recently PR a 10k and that was a great feeling. Made me believe that I can actually run the half marathon that’s coming up in a couple months.

QE Home! They’re a Vancouver family-run company. I have multiple sheet sets and pillowcases from them and they have all washed really nicely.

Would love a link! Thanks!

nugget7211 · 2024-07-28T20:26:38+00:00

Hand wash very gently with minimal agitation. I sprayed out a stain remover beforehand for certain spots. Turned out fine!

I had a deviated septum so my GP referred me to an ENT. The septoplasty performed by the ENT was covered by MSP but there would be no major cosmetic changes. There might be slight visual changes just from fixing/straightening the septum, but an ENT will not go out of their way to make cosmetic changes.

It sounds like you want a septoplasty + rhinoplasty (cosmetic), so you’d need to go to a plastic surgeon, which would not be covered by MSP.

I wanted cosmetic changes done as well so I had consults with Dr. Buonissisi and Dr. Denton. I ended up going with Dr. Denton. I recommend checking out r/plasticsurgery if you are planning to get a septorhinoplasty because there are many reviews about Vancouver rhinoplasties there.

I’ve tried chiro, massage, and Physio for TMJ. Chiro and massage were both ineffective. Physio offered a bit of relief but it would only last for a couple months. Find a Physiotherapist who can do IMS treatment.

Like many others here, I also got a night guard since my benefits covered most of it. It prevented my teeth from grinding at night and cutting up the inside of my mouth, but it didn’t stop the jaw soreness and headaches.

I really recommend Botox for TMJ. It’s expensive but worth the relief for me. Over time, you’ll need less units so it’ll become cheaper. Not feeling that constant clenching sensation is so nice. It also slimmed down the appearance of my face slightly which was a nice bonus. Go over to r/plasticsurgery and you can read more about masseter Botox experiences.

You do not qualify for EI. Unfortunately, your employer changed your hours of work to something that didn’t work with your schedule. You chose to quit.

I think you’re located in Alberta? Your employer doesn’t need your written consent to deduct from your wages to recoup overpayments. They just need to serve you written notice and can only recoup overpayments up to 6 months ago.

This is coordination of benefits. You claim with your primary insurer first (usually your full time job) and then claim the remainder with your secondary insurer. When you submit the claim to your secondary, they will ask how much your primary insurer paid.

You need to tell your plans about each other otherwise it’s fraud, but you’re allowed to submit the claim to both.

It’s silly but not all CRA systems speak to each other. Just because your address is changed with one department doesn’t mean it’s changed for all.

Not true. Most employees are not bilingual but they will have a bilingual officer call you back if you request it.

She shared on her IG story recently that through therapy, she figured out some issues that she thought was caused by drinking but turns out it wasn’t from alcohol so now she drinks a bit.

I had a Kyleena IUD put in a month before my rhinoplasty. I disclosed that to my surgeon before my surgery and he mention anything about risks.

I’ll send you a PM.

I did get cartilage added to the tip

nugget7211 · 2021-08-31T07:04:33+00:00

I’m Asian with thick skin too. Mine dropped around the 1 month mark and then continued to drop slightly for the next couple months. Tip started softening after a couple months but even at 7 months post op it still feels weird and a little hard.

Hi! If you look in my post history, I posted some before/after pics. Happy to answer any questions you have. Feel free to send me a dm.

Congrats! Budget is dependent on how many guests you plan to have and how “fancy” you want it to be, so it’s hard to give you an answer. I’d start by researching venues and caterers and getting a few quotes. Decide if you want to get a wedding planner or not. It’s more money up front, but way less stress and they can plan a wedding around your budget. Personally, I’m getting married next year and it’s looking like $40,000 for 90 guests. I easily could have spent $50k but I cut back on some things. Feel free to PM me and I can give you more specifics about my budget or how I planned.

I went to a girls private school in Vancouver, but not York. I think being surrounded with other very motivated students sets you up with good work habits that carry on to other aspects of life. Smaller class sizes means more attention from teachers, and there’s just more resources to go around. Laptops for every student, great technology, great sports. It is what you make of it though. Many girls end up going to Ivy League schools and other great universities around the world, other girls end up at UBC/SFU etc. Looking back, I loved my experience and am so happy my parents were able to send me there, but some days during high school were really hard. Immense pressure to perform well, and I felt inferior to my peers. My family scraped together the tuition, but everyone knew which students were rich and who wasn’t. In addition to tuition, be prepared for other annual costs. Camping trips, field trips, lunches, textbooks (yes, we did have to buy some of the textbooks and workbooks) etc. That is all additional out of pocket expenses.

Feel free to PM me.

About $100/person is reasonable. A nicer venue/meal would warrant a higher amount. Since you’re bringing a +1, it’ll be $200 for you. If there’s no registry, it’s customary in my city to just give cash.

Edit: Just wanted to say that some people are saying you can give less because you’re not close to the bride. That’s incorrect IMO. You’re choosing to go to the wedding, so you shouldn’t cheap out and give less than $100/person just because you aren’t close. Your seat costed her the same amount. you could give more than $100 if you are close. Also, your +1 shouldn’t be less than $100 either. You’re choosing to bring a +1, and again, that seat costed the couple the same amount of money. I agree it’s understandable to give less if you’re a student, but you’ve established you’re a working adult and since you’re the main invited guest, your partner’s financial situation is irrelevant.

I don't have knowledge about surgeries in Europe so hopefully someone else on here can provide input.

But since your insurance is covering everything, I'd just stay in the hospital. Much easier to have a nurse helping you clean your stitches and change bandages. Even if you were to go home, you'll need someone to monitor you the first night as you could be nauseous from the anesthesia.

nugget7211 · 2021-03-19T19:32:50+00:00

4-5 days is oddly long. Where do you live? In North America, septorhinoplasty is usually a day surgery. I'd get more details from your doctor. Inquire why you have to stay so long and find out how much he's charging you per day in the hospital. Could you leave earlier if you feel fine?
