[Highland Park] Free to a good home: Coasters in the raw.
by Constanza Ehrenhaus 12 Mar '11

12 Mar '11

Hi! I have a set of four coasters int he raw. They are ceramic with a cork basis. I was planning to paint them myself to match our decor, but unfortunately life is just too busy and a year later I still don't find the time for them. I figure I'll pass them to someone that would actually do something with them. They just would need to be washed to remove any oils or dust that might have been deposited on them through this time. Otherwise, they are ready to be painted. If you are the crafty type, this can be a fun project! Thanks for reading! Coty.-

[Highland Park] childcare provider needed in Friendship
by Kimberly Musial 12 Mar '11

12 Mar '11

sending on behalf of my friends in friendship: Seeking a stay at home parent or shared nanny to take care of our 5 month old daughter. We need someone all day, 4 days per week starting mid-April through at least July (our current care giver is having a baby). Must be willing to cloth diaper, value outside time and no TV, otherwise we're pretty laid back and flexible. We may be able to take her to your house, so long as it's close to Friendship. Please respond if you're a good fit for us, or if you have an idea of someone else who might be. Thanks, Elly & Andrew etfisher (at) gmail (dot) com -- Elly Fisher <%28412%29%20335-9860>(412) 335-9860 etfisher(a)gmail.com

[Highland Park] found cat--Negley Ave--white
by Amy P. Kennedy 12 Mar '11

12 Mar '11

Hi neighbors, Hoping someone can help find the owner of a cat that I found near the corner of Negley and Hays. I didn't want to bring it home, but it kept running into Negley and sitting in the middle of the street, stopping traffic. It is a small, very friendly all white cat, pink nose, green eyes. I was just trying to determine gender at my house when my own cats appeared---now waiting till things calm down a bit. The cat has no tags but is wearing a plastic, slightly-green-tinted flea collar with 3 white stripes in the plastic. A young man I passed while walking home with it said he thought perhaps he had seen some "lost cat" posters in the Morningside area with a photo that looked like this cat. I cannot keep this cat for long due to my own cats. Please call if you know where it might live. Thanks! Amy 412-441-1011 412-580-5049 412-860-9700

[Highland Park] For sale: Baseball glove and ball
by Constanza Ehrenhaus 12 Mar '11

12 Mar '11

Hi! We have a baseball glove brand Easton, competitor series EX1302, 13" pattern, oil injected leather, form fit pocket, with gel pad and flex action palm. My husband bought it about 10 years ago, but if I have to judge based on looks it was never used, it is in perfect shape. Gloves this size by Easton go for $80-100 http://www.eastonbaseball.com/the-equipment/ball-gloves/by-size/13-inch.htm… cannot find this model anymore, so I imagine they don't make it anymore. We are asking for $60 for the glove plus ball (the ball is in excellent shape, it only has some stains, apparently he threw it more than he ever used the glove). Thanks for reading! Coty.-

[Highland Park] Free CD-Rs
by Stephanie Walsh 12 Mar '11

12 Mar '11

I have about 30 blank CD-R's, each in its own case. I'd love them to go to a school or other good cause, but just finding a home where they'd be used would be great. Stephanie
