Furnace trouble
by Tintinbrett 12 Mar '17

12 Mar '17

Our furnace is not working properly, I suspect the igniter, which has been a problem before. We contacted AirPro, the company we bought it from, and have so far; been ignored. It has now been 4 hours, 2 calls, and 2 promises of a call back from an engineer. So, I'm wondering if anyone has any advice, or recommendations of a local furnace guy that is affordable, and reliable? Cheers Brett Sent from my iPad

We have 2 of these play yards that we used in different areas of our house for our daughter when she was a baby and a younger toddler: https://www.amazon.com/North-States-Superyard-Colorplay-Playard/dp/B006NTY1… They are large, sturdy, stable and in excellent used condition. We paid $110 for each; asking $40 each. Thanks, Emily

Garden class!
by Rachel Kudrick 12 Mar '17

12 Mar '17

Hello neighbors! In Pittsburgh, there are an average of 118 days between the last frost of spring (May 26th), and the first frost of autumn (September 20th). However, not all of those days are warm enough for every crop, such as sweet potatoes. If we’re lucky, Pittsburgh might have 80-85 days that are appropriate for those crops. What if you want to grow one of those? Or if you’re dying for fresh greens in April? Do you wish that you could indulge in garden-fresh tomatoes for four or five months instead of the measly August & September that we usually get? Guess what? You could be harvesting lettuce and spinach as early as March and as late as December! Sweet potatoes could thrive in your garden. Grow a ton of big butternut squash or watermelon, when usually there’s only enough time to harvest a few. In this week’s garden class, we will learn simple ways to extend the season by anywhere from a couple weeks to a few months! Many of these methods can be accomplished with minimal effort and little-to-no monetary investment (think reduce, re-use, recycle!). Class is held Wednesday evenings, 6:30-8:30. Cost is $10/person (cash, check or credit) with anyone on a fixed income or assistance able to attend for free. Please contact me for the location. And consider attending the next two classes as well: testing and Amending Soil (3/22) and Pruning Trees & Shrubs (3/29)! Rachel Kudrick 412-251-9759 rkudrick(a)live.com

Seeking a Life/Career Coach
by Rob Nichols 12 Mar '17

12 Mar '17

Hello, Neighbors. I am wondering if anyone can recommend a good life/career coach. Perhaps you've worked with a coach, or perhaps you are a coach or know someone who is. I am seeking a coach who can help me distill and clarify some personal life goals and also offer suggestions and guidance for how to refocus my professional talents, skills, and interests in the larger context of my life. If anyone has coaching recommendations, I would greatly appreciate it if you would share them. Many Thanks, Rob Nichols rwnt22(a)gmail.com
