Rules

Very specific question and probably won't get much traction but thought to try.

I have schizoaffective bipolar type (so schizophrenic with a mood disorder for those not familiar with it). While I'm extremely fortunate to have a good support system and they help me so much, I've always wanted to meet people like me because being like this is very lonely sometimes.

They do have support groups here in Abby but I'm at work when they happen so I can't attend.

So if anyone wants a fellow mentally ill friend, hit me up, my DMs don't work but the chat option does. Hope everyone has a great day :)

Hi. I'm in the affected area of the ecoli water. I just wanted to know if it's safe to shower? Not an excessively long one, but long enough to wash my hair and feel clean? I know we can't drink it, and I don't usually make a point of trying to drink my showers, so would I be 'safe' to do this? I am unfortunately a person with a comprised/lowered immune system thanks to medication I take for an actice autoimmune disorder.

Thanks for any feedback!

A big pile of bullshep are looking for a forever home. You could say you're full of bullshep if you adopted one. Cutest pile of bullshep you'll find. Contact me if interested and I'll give more info. Serious inquiries only please. No bullshep allowed.

The map here for EColi affected area is really confusing. Can someone explain if these blocks affected or not. Thanks!

Hello everyone I’m considering a move and I am wondering what the lgbt community is like in Abbotsford. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

I drank water and brushed my teeth yesterday before seeing the notice, definitely not feeling so great between the cramps and washroom visits. Anyone else in the same boat?

Pretty frusterating situation. I really want to see the investigation into this.

Hey, just putting the idea out there and seeing what kind of response I get. As it gets colder I thought people might want a place to smoke up. Especially those that live in condos or places where they can’t smoke up inside. I have a covered and somewhat enclosed and heated back porch where we smoke up . And thought perhaps people would want to come over and smoke up with us. I’m a 47 M and my wife is 38 if that makes any difference. People around that age may be a better “fit” . Myself I only smoke up on Friday and Saturday nights for the most part, however my wife smokes up more frequently during the week. Let me know, thanks

Any good food joints in Abbotsford? Tacos, fried chicken, burgers, pizza, fries, mac&cheese etc

There is currently a boil water alert due to E.coli being found in the water. A boil water advisory is in effect until further notice. https://www.clearbrookwaterworks.com/

I was quoted over 900 dollars and to me that seems a little much? any places that are cheaper?

Hi,

I want to buy men’s sunglasses and wallet for my boyfriend’s birthday. Where to buy them from in Abbotsford? Looking for good quality in budget!

Somebody mentioned Abbotsford's Columbia Bible College and it was my first time hearing about it. Just asking out of curiosity? What is it like to go to school there?

Hey Guys,

I own a couple of poke shops in the lower mainland and am looking at opening one in HighStreet.

Just looking for some feedback from you guys on if you think that would be a good idea based on your experience at the mall.

I heard a lot of the residents are mainly east Indian in that area and they don't typically eat raw fish.

Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Cheers!

i made a video about it partly inspired by this subreddit

Absolute bonus points if the trainers are also older and not in their 20/30s.

Just wondering if anybody has pictures of Abbotsford pre 2009 and even farther back. Possibly of properties that once were either farms or fields and now have been developed. I have been through just about every picture on the reach archive,and just wondering if anybody has some from their personal collection. Especially of downtown Abbotsford in the early 2000’s before the hallmark facelift of many store fronts.

Hi all, I'm looking for any volunteer suggestions. Trying to get something to do in my free time away from work. If you or anyone you know is involved in any scene that may be interesting, let me know.

hello everyone,

I have posted here before about a local rescue and I have another request I wanted to share so hopefully that's ok.

Heart and Soul Dog and Cat Rescue urgently needs more foster homes as temperatures drop and more animals require care and warmth this winter. With many furry friends in need of a safe, loving environment, your help could make all the difference. If you're looking to share the festive season with a little cutie who needs support, please consider fostering today!

Questions: anita.catfe@gmail.com

Info on cuties hoping to come in their care is attached.
