@katynotie I'm almost 51 and have been there so many times this year. I have a reason though, my daughter is in a punk/stoner rock band (The Orchids), and they are playing there again tonight. It's a cool spot.

I am 34 and just went to Gus’s Pub for the first time last night.

@SarasSydney Do you have a link? Or is it just on NS Health

In half an hour I confirmed my parents and me flu shots, booked Covid shots and voted online in HRM election.

@BruceFraser Scotiabank is also horrible. A parents death is hard enough, but the months afterwards are gut wrenching. Everyday can be a fresh new hell.

I let CIBC have it today. I don't think people are holding these institutions to account enough for their terrible behaviour.

As executor of my mom's estate I've been dealing with several different financial institutions and most have been awful. Terrible customer service. Zero follow through. No communication. RBC and CIBC have been especially bad. Definitely learning who not to bank with.

@MandyWoodRadio I don't know of one in Truro, but my daughters band just recorded an album at The Drum Room in Three Fathoms Harbour (just outside of Cole Harbour) and had a great experience. Long and McQuade may know of someone. CEC may also be an option as well.

@Kelly_Button @evilpez4 Robie St, Truro location.

@Southernchevy17 @evilpez4 Which Sobeys? I couldn’t find them at the Clayton Park store. ☹️

No, Frito Lay won’t return my messages about the chest tatts either.

@HalifaxReTales Moirs Chocolates

@SarasSydney Don't look at urban outfitters or american eagle or you will be broke. I will keep an eye out for you though.

Anybody near me find the snoopy one let me know please. I am a super snoopy fan ❤️

@evilpez4 Put ham in the sauce and enough butter to clog an artery, and it's so much better.

REMINDER: August is "Hodge Podge Awareness Month" in Nova Scotia.

@katynotie We just arrived at Belmont River and the fork lightning and thunder started. The only one that got a swim was Waffles.

Well. The storm took a look at us and is now moving to Truro. Relatable, tbh. Good luck, Truro.

NOD ZINE just posted an amazing feature on The Orchids. If you dig what you read, they have a ton of shows coming up July/August. nodzine.blogspot.com/2024/07/the-or…

@POSSE_NS Yes, call

@Girrl_Friday I'm so sorry to hear this. He looks like a sweet boy. We did palliative care at home for our cat last fall until he passed right before Christmas. It was hard, but no regrets here. We don't have a support option in Colchester County.

@katynotie @Sack_Vegas Oh that may be a good time regardless.

@Sack_Vegas Haha there's a folk black metal band from here! There however is not an arena. Or stadium. Or stage.

Roadside Thai food in Sauda, Norway.

@SarasSydney Omg what. Lovely.

@Southernchevy17 One bite from them is a trip to the ER I guess

The wolf spiders at work are getting big. I wish they would stay off the alarm keypad. Makes it hard to turn the alarm off. (Sorry neighbour)

@SarasSydney Oh lord.

@Southernchevy17 These are pictures of what they look like I found on the internet. They get big in the next few months from tiny speeding spiders to ewwwww ones

@BruceFraser That would be very hard. Hoping she receives the very best care that she deserves.

Tough day. Moved my mom into long term care. Her healthcare needs were outpacing where she was in residential care. I placed this photo of her in her new room to show staff who she is. As a nurse she cared for so many over her career. Now she's the patient needing good care.

@BruceFraser It's a lot. I learned things I didn't know I needed to know when Mom got Glioblastoma Brain Cancer. Her last 2 months & the year afterward were full of patient advocacy, documentation, and eventual filing of complaints. At least we keep her comfortable & helped Dad.

Been dealing w/ my mom's advancing health challenges for a few years now. Think I'll add healthcare case manager, patient navigator, and care coordinator to my CV. Our system is so siloed that I'm the only one that knows what's going on and gets shit done anyway. Damn shambles.

Sharing this from fb in case anyone I know in Halifax has seen him. His sister Natasha is looking for him.
