Bathroom renovation/ restoration recommendations needed
by Andrea Leavitt 17 May '24

17 May '24

Greetings, lovely neighbors - I hope this finds you well and in good spirits! I am in need of someone to help with a bathroom renovation/restoration, and was hoping you could send your recommendations, please. I'm looking for someone who has mad tiling skills. Someone who can handle 90 year old plaster ceilings, possibly frightening wiring, mysterious plumbing - A sort of “Old House Whisperer” with the constitution for tackling the joyous idiosyncrasies involved in this type of work. Many thanks for your input. Cheers, Andrea

Summer Family Vacation Tip
by Monica Watt 17 May '24

17 May '24

I read this in an article and thought it was a good tip that should be shared. This happened on a busy day at a Florida beach. The sheriff’s office added, "Any time you take your kids to a crowded location, consider taking a photo of them in their current outfits so if the unthinkable occurs — your child is lost — they can be located as quickly as possible." *https://people.com/deputy-comforts-young-girl-who-got-separated-from-her-mom-at-the-beach-8649489 <https://people.com/deputy-comforts-young-girl-who-got-separated-from-her-mo…>* Monica Watt c: 412.818.4702 e: monicawatt931(a)gmail.com
