    COVID and the housing market

    Thanks and will do! We haven't used either of our fireplaces in over 2 years now. One of my neighbours basically went to his roof, and knocked it down brick by brick. Replaced the hole with a 20 year leaking skylight, and then had his ceiling bow under the weight as all he did was sistered the...

    COVID and the housing market

    I wo I would absolutely love to have something like this done about our lower level! 70% of the floor space from the bottom would still allow me a very nice space for a bedroom, and an office... Ideally I'd like to do it with minimal disruption to the main living area below, but my stupid...

    TV shows currently watching

    Those types of shows are all victims of their own success. You have a relatable figure that's 'normal' and is placed into messed up situations and gets through them. Then each season they get closer and closer to superman / hero status...Rarely does it work for me.

    Just finished up White Lotus S3 last night. Not even sure how I found it, but damn all 3 were good watching. Highly recommend.

    Avoidable Accident??

    I'm not providing advice to anyone. This is what makes ME feel safer and IMO protects ME from idiots entering the HOV lane.

    Trailer ownership with you in vehicle?

    That's the exact reason I only keep photocopies in the car. Zero chance I'm giving my phone willingly to LEO if I can help it.

    COVID and the housing market

    100% we have a good house in a good neighbourhood and we are happy. BUT if I could afford to buy my friends’ house across the main road, on a block facing Erindale Park, with a pool, and space for everything we could ever need… I’d buy that place in a heartbeat. They just bought a house...

    COVID and the housing market

    I was walking through our old neighbourhood in Old Toronto…I couldn’t believe how many of the old tiny war time homes were already McMansions or on their way to being McMansions. 3 on one street side by side on 7th street alone south of lakeshore.

    Avoidable Accident??

    I’ll take slamming into a car abruptly braking over a car abruptly accelerating from a dead stop any day.

    Avoidable Accident??

    I recall seeing that accident…brutal and I pass that section every time I come home from work. As for HOV and closing speed…don’t care what the proper blocking position is. I go and keep as far left of the lane as possible just to give myself most time to react, and swerving doesn’t need to be...

    COVID and the housing market

    And here I am considering adding another $1500-2000/month to my mortgage to upsize our home… 99% it won’t happen as I don’t have an additional 200k to bring it to that level. Currently the increase is $2500/month as a minimum.

    Possible Paving Scam?

    I’m scared of getting a quote for our driveway. 9 car driveway ain’t gonna be cheap but it’s showing more cracking, a depression here or there…eventually gonna have to bite the bullet.

    Stocks

    If you use the words ‘the great reset’ you’ll get all the conspiracy theorists out thinking the billionaires are about to enslave us. What’s that saying…‘you’ll own nothing and be happy about it’…something something. Anyway back to stocks. When do I start buying!?

    Foldable Trailer at Costco, $1,000

    Looks to be the guy from Milton that sells these out of his backyard. Same photos as his FB and Kijiji ads. Nice guy. Decent trailer. I buy my accessories parts from them for the trailer.

    WTB - Preacher Pad

    Looking for this product. Fairly niche, but appears very functional for small gyms. Hoping to stay sub-$130 if possible.
