Thanks for the good vibes, my offer was accepted ! :-) I am so happy, this will be a new beginning. It might sound silly but by leaving this house, I am leaving the old me, the overachiever me, the workaholic me. The new me, the me with ME, will have all the latitude to blossom. My new...

So young. Very sad indeed.

I have made an offer on a house tonight. I won’t talk about it right now because it might not work. I will get the answer tomorrow pm. More to come, stay tuned ! :-)

@MsUnderstood I think you summed it up well. Waiting for someone to scrape the ice off my car before going out is just not realistic. So I’ll try to do it myself and end up crashing. In my area there are very few bungalow style townhouses. The ones that were on the market needed a lot of...

I would like to know what you think. Sometimes I tend to get carried away too fast and I need to come back down to earth. I have found a semi-detached house that I really, really like. I’ve seens tons of houses now so I know this one is the good stuff. It’s the perfect size, it has been well...

Zoubidou bizous... lol ! Uodate : after 3-4 weeks of looking for a 1 story house with no stairs and much disappointment, here are the news. I got rid of my real estate broker, she was putting too much pressure on me. I was feeling her frustration at me because I wasn’t liking the houses she...

My tinnitus appeared when ceasing an anti-depressor. All anti-depressors are ototoxic, meaning they can cause tinnitus. I wish I had known that at the time...

I like meditation but breathing too deep makes me dizzy, so no fun.

Ha Ha Ha ! What a great song, I love Serge Gainsbourg ! Arguably the most salacious song in the world...

@Alvin ahhhhh, but french is the language of love, easy to learn... (lol)

@Alvin even better, you can move to Quebec then ! :-). I’m sure you’d love to practice your french... Are you close to Ottawa?

I find it hard to believe that enterovirus would cause perfectionism. When you have that trait, you have it from childhood, it doesn’t suddenly appear out of nowhere, at 30, 40 or 50 years old. I fond that odd. OCD, yeah, maybe. This one appears later in life usually. Unless they’re saying...

Ha Ha Ha ! They’re small, but not that small... Yes, as a matter of fact I would much rather pay for a fixed amount every month then deal with what life brings you to fix with a house. But there’s also a price to pay for that, the intimacy isn’t the same in a condo as a house. I’ve lived in...

Funny, that’s exactly what I’m doing. I’m starting to declutter and sell stuff, very slowly. Except I’m also looking, mostly online. The thing with my house is that it’s so big and I live alone now, mu kids are gone. I only use my bedroom, living room, and kitchen / bathroom. On the first...

Condo is a great idea but I have 2 small dogs who are my life companions and I cannot take them outside many times a day. i need to open the door, let them do their business and not pick up (they’re both very small so it naturally dissolves into the soil after a while). If not, a condo would...

Yeah, really. 30 minutes of exercise is a whole lot for someone with ME. I’d be passed out long before that...

I’ve been trying to decide between renovating my bungalow (too big for me to maintain, I live alone, my kids are gone) or buying a new (second hand) house. Here is part I of the story, if you want to read it. https://www.s4me.info/threads/house-built-on-old-golf-course-yes-or-no.2731/ Since I...

Yes, similar experience here. I have both chronic and acute sinusitis. 3 spots for chronic, 1 spot acute. I took antibiotics in december and thought I was better for a few days. But it didn’t last and the migraines and head pressure came back. Next week I have a follow-up scan following the...

@Cheshire Canadians certainly don’t think their system is the best in the world. And even less in Quebec. Thanks for the lengthy explanation about the different systems.

I’m French from Canada, but I am a member of a few french support groups and I see no evidence of this whatsoever. From my canadian point of view, there is even more abuse and neglect for PWME in France than Canada and US. French doctors seem to be more globally patronizing and deeply...
