Looking for a workout buddy - LA Fitness
by Smitha Prasadh 24 Mar '16

24 Mar '16

Hi! I'm looking for a workout buddy who's an LA Fitness member, someone else looking for a way to stay accountable and get to the gym regularly (3x/week, if not more). I usually work out at Bakery Square but could also meet at the Southside location. Gender and age don't matter. I'm just getting back into working out after a long break, so someone in a similar situation would be preferred, but as long as you're encouraging and not judgy, that's what matters. :) (And I am happy to cheer you on in your fitness journey, too!) I've never had a workout buddy before, so even if it's just meeting at the entrance, high-fiving, and going our own ways, that works for me - we can work out specifics of how this'll work. But just scheduling times and knowing there'll be someone waiting would help me so much. Send me a message and maybe we can meet for coffee (or a power smoothie) sometime! Cheers! Smitha

Springtime for Cutler(y) - blade sharpening
by Daniel Thompson 24 Mar '16

24 Mar '16

Good afternoon, neighbors! Now that we have finally managed to shake off those winter doldrums and the birds are singing and bees are buzzing, we're seeing the first indications of Spring. Atomic Celt Bladeworks is still going strong, thanks in large part to the support you, the neighborhood have provided. Now that Spring is here, of course, the grass is starting to grow and the hedges need to be trimmed. This is to remind you that Atomic Celt Bladeworks not only sharpens your kitchen and camping cutlery, I also sharpen lawn mower and yard tool blades. That DOES include rotary mowers! So if you're tired of not getting the best performance out of your mower or yard tools, reach out to me, I can help. My number is 412-608-7822, my business email address is atomiccelt(a)gmail.com, and you can find my website at www.AtomicCelt.com if Spring has inspired you to pick up a custom knife or three. Thank you again for being so supportive of local businesses. Dan "The Atomic Celt" Thompson
