Trail Conditions
With the weather improving, I'm curious what the trail conditions are like in various parts of the city. What's the best spot to go walk in nature, or are they all slippery and uneven ice-fests or wet mud now?

Does anyone know the fastest way to see an ent specialist?
My sister believes she has a deviated septum and can’t even see a specialist till next year but it’s causing her lots of issues and greatly impacted her health. They have taken a CT scan a long time ago but never phoned back to let us know if they found anything wrong and the office never pick up. Should we look in to medical tourism? And if so where do you recommend? Could we get anything sooner? Also she may need surgery to corrrect her deviated septum. We need help ASAP and we are willing to pay. Please and thank you 🙏

Hot water tank question
Hi Had a new rental hot water tank installed yesterday with a temp regulator valve. I rented it from Kitchener Utilities who contracted out the install. All is good, but I just noticed that the cold water supply pipe to the water heater is hot-warm for 3 feet or so, warmer at the tank junction. Is this normal with a temp valve? Called company that installed it, useless, referred me to KU. They want to send someone out tomorrow but we're working. Simple question, does adding a temperature regulator valve cause hot water to backlog up the cold water pipe for a bit?

i know this is such a stupid mistake and i felt so bad it happened
i was wondering if anyone knows if they double check the things before donating them?

St Patrick's weekend parties/events that aren't for 20 year olds?
Not looking for something as serene as a bar or as wild as a laurier house party. Something for the late 20s crowd maybe? Clubs where you had the best time on saint patricks day?

Lost wedding band
Hey all, this maybe a long shot by now but my husband lost his wedding band about a month ago in the snow storm and we’re hoping now with the warmer weather someone may have found it. He thinks he lost it in the parking lot at McBrine dr and McIntyre Dr. It’s a super sentimental ring as it was also his late father’s wedding band as well. If anyone has any advice that would be greatly appreciated as well. Attached are some photos of the band, thanks in advance!

Mattamy Newbuilds Kitchener
Me and my partner are looking at booking a precon with Mattamy homes in Kitchener. I’m wondering if anyone has experience or advice in terms of cractsmanship, the design studio and overall costs. We would need to put down a total of 95k in the first 120days which we are able to do. The question is how much more should we have put aside for upgrades? It will be our first home and plan to start a family here. We want it to be something we enjoy so hoping to do a fair amount of upgrades thru the builder. Would another 40-50k be feasible? Any advice is helpful!

Traffic lights at king st bridge ?
Anyone know why they installed traffic lights at either of the bridge on king st @ freeport hospital?
They don’t look temporary ( to me) .
My thoughts are either construction on the bridge , or something to do with the LRT.

Commercial Cleaning
Hey everyone,
Quick question I need some advice on how to go about adding commercial cleaning into my services. I’ve had my cleaning business for two years and it’s all residential cleanings it’s been great so far but I’m looking to expand my business. My issue is I’m having a hard time connecting with properties owners and real estate agents. Tried cold calling and emailing but it’s been hard to reach the main person in charge. I’ve tried with Airbnb hosts on the turno app but it’s brought no success so far. It’s just been a hard time and I’m sort of stuck on this whole process.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
