Free curtains
by Martha Riecks 13 Aug '18

13 Aug '18

These curtains matched our old couch - happy to pass on (for free) to anyone who can use them. I sewed them myself so the seams aren't always perfectly straight but it's not noticeable when they are hanging up from what I remember. There are two flat curtain panels - both approx. 56 inches wide (the part that goes along the curtain rod) x 68 inches long. The fabric is olive green with a sheen to it and olive green swirls embroidered on it. Pictures attached. The curtain panels have buttonholes across the top - I had them hanging using the purple ribbons pictured (put ribbon through the buttonhole on the curtain panel, tie ribbon around curtain rod), but you could easily buy a different color ribbon for that. If you can use them, let me know and I'll set them out on my porch (and send you my address so you can pick them up) -- Martha Riecks mriecks(a)gmail.com

ISO size 7 toddler water shoes
by Sarah Villafuerte 13 Aug '18

Hey Neighbors, Anyone have a size 7 water shoe laying around their child has grown out of that they'd want to sell? My son's foot has grown two sizes this summer and I don't want to buy yet another new pair before next year. Color doesn't matter, but he won't wear Keens because they're "too heavy." Thanks! Sarah

Three kittens (2 black, 1 gray or calico) started huddling in our hedges this week. I am wondering if anyone in the area is caring for this group or knows if they have been TNR’d yet? Thanks, Kate

Yoga class in Highland Park Tuesday 8 to 9 a.m.
by Susan Rupani 12 Aug '18

12 Aug '18

Greetings! This quote says so well what is to love about yoga: *“The more you practice, the more yoga becomes about strength of mind, having the strength to stay focused, not tie yourself to the expectation of what you did yesterday, or what your goal is for tomorrow. Yoga is all about the true connection to the self, sometimes strength comes up because that is what is needed, but other times compassion or patience is needed. I truly believe a consistent yoga practice will strengthen the elements of the self that are needed to navigate the paths that we walk.” **Patrick Beach* Let's come together for yoga class this Tuesday at 8 a.m., we'll meet to the right side of the fountain in Highland Park (*weather permitting). Bring your mat and wear comfortable clothes. Cost is $10. All levels, all are welcome. Namaste, Susan 412-417-6300 SusanRupani.com

Hello, My mother is down-sizing to assisted living senior care and cannot take all of her furniture with her. We are willing to sell very cheaply. What does not get sold will be donated to a non-profit. There is a matching solid color sofa and chair, very comfortable and in excellent shape. The bed is mid-century wood frame, clean and simple, full size. There may be a queen anne wing chair. There may also be a kitchen table and 4 chairs. She moves Thursday, so the items left will be available Friday. If interested, you can reach me at 412-951-1626. Thanks, Christine
