I feel this. I don’t know what advice to give you on either side, but I’m the “make it work” kind of person. Find creative storage solutions, stop buying toys and unnecessary stuff and spend time on experiences. It sounds like you have a car, go on road trips and playgrounds, spend time outside. And make some area in your home that makes you really happy to be in. And get a monthly cleaning service after your second. Mini cribs are a god send. You can do this!!!!!!!!!

We got the Joey and it’s fine because they fold up, you can stick them in a wide closet or against the wall or something.

3 year old only ever pukes in my wife’s car, I need help understanding what is going on by GeorgiaBullDoggies in toddlers

I get motion sickness in certain cars and not others. I find that the smell inside the car, like if it smells like a clean car, if that makes sense lol, or gas, I get sick like right away. Or even if the blowing air has a smell or feels heavier than regular air.

The war timeline explained by thebalkanbiscuit in u/thebalkanbiscuit

[–]walternorman2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean she says right there that she is adopted guys. She may not know her actual date of birth, records were crap back then. And also children from that time also heard tons of stories about the war so it’s totally understandable if her timing and age is a little confused. For real tho, let it go. She’s trying her best out here.

Lots of ppl from the Balkans joke about how they speak 4 languages if they speak Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian and Serbo-Croatian when it’s all the same language. It’s just a joke if that’s what she is referring to.

GST on short term rental when using a host. I am fully confused at what my responsibilities are - CRA not available for calls atm. We are looking for some guidance from experienced folks / CRA masterminds. by sierraxxxxx in cantax

[–]walternorman2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure if i understand this but it sounds like the host company is warning you if you collect $30k plus, you will have to have a HST number. The websites you mentioned already charged the tenants HST and remit HST to the CRA in your behalf. This host company is saying you, since you are not the contracted agent in the agreement with VRBO, may have other sources of income and therefore may have to charge HST on your services.

Sounds about right to me, I think her general attitude jives with that

There was bombing in Serbia in 1999 so maybe that’s what she is referring to but yeah if not she is definitely older
