I've never had problems not speaking french in Qc. Especially not in a hospital setting. My local hospital went out of it's way to find staff who could communicate with us in broken but understandable English.

Even when Mr P was sedated, the staff all spoke to him in English when possible so he could understand what was happening to him.

Oh no! So, so sorry this has happened to your family. Positive thoughts sent out for him to find new work fast. :girl_hug:

I thought I hated Windows 8.... I hate Windows 10 even more :mad:

^ You can revert! My son wouldn't let me upgrade to 10.

Windows 10 is THE WORST!!!! I would even take Windows Vista over Windows 10.

OMG I can't smell! I have a terrible cold with hurting sinuses.

As part of my birthday gift today, my husband got me two hyacinths (tradition for us) - one pink, one white - and the aroma of just one of them is enough to perfume a room - and I just ADORE the smell.
But I can't smell them - absolutely nothing, nada, zilch - how crazy is that?
And my nose isn't plugged, I can breathe through it... sorry if TMI, but this blows my mind!

This is the kids' new computer that came with it and I am not so technical that I can figure out how to install 8 on it. I'd never upgrade my own computer to 10.

I've got a program installed on both my 8.1 desktop and my 10 laptop called Start Menu 8 that makes windows act like 7 and older versions.
I'm still tempted to try Ubuntu on one of them.

Unappreciative people!!

I throw DD a small birthday party at our house - cake, pizza, chips & pop - Decorations, balloons, what I`m getting at is it's planned and detailed and rather than a " Oh this is nice " I get wow, so much sugar! So much pop! Uh yeah. It's a kids party, I heard they go wild for celery and raisins.

Pretentious much? If you can flip my Whole Foods bill, be my guest.

Happened to to me a long time ago. My sense of smell was completely gone for a few years. I do get the occasional whiff of something now and then but it's rare. At some point I will have to mention it to the doctor. I wasn't in a hurry to get it checked out because I can breathe fine and it was nice not to smell poop when changing a diaper lol.
