[Highland Park] Free Queen Size Mattress
by Bob Staresinic 09 Feb '11

09 Feb '11

Hello Neighbors I have a queen size mattress that I need to get rid of. It is a mattress that was given to my sister, left at my brother's house, and has not been used in a few years. It was covered with plastic while it was stored, and looks to be in pretty decent shape. It has a slight bend from being stored, but I am sure that will straighten out once it is put down and slept on. There is no box spring or frame, just the mattress. Sound like something you can use? I know my description makes it sound enticing. If you are interested in picking this up, let me know. I will help you carry it out (its on the first floor) and load it into the vehicle of your choice. Thanks Bob 412-441-8972

08 Feb '11

Hello Neighbors! Just wanted to spread the word...after searching for a place for my two young boys and not finding anything I LOVED, I decided to hire a great pre-school teacher and start my own small home daycare in Aspinwall. We are state certified and working on our Keystone Stars. We are 3 blocks from St. Margaret’s Hospital, we take credit cards and drop-ins, and because we are just getting started, we have no registration fee at this time. For more info check us out at: www.marthalavignechildcarellc.vpweb.com We are able to take children 8 months and older. We have some opportunities you won't find in other places. Looking forward to serving the community! Warm wishes, Martha Lavigne ____________________________________________________________________________________ Now that's room service!

[Highland Park] Jordan travel book?
by leah helou 08 Feb '11

Hello neighbors, Does anyone have a good Jordan travel book that they are willing to share for a few weeks? I was hoping to find a Kindle edition, but unfortunately my travel plans are apparently more advanced than Amazon's new e-reader. ;) Thanks, Leah Helou

[Highland Park] New babysitter looking for Mother's Helper opportunities
by Emily Viehland 08 Feb '11

08 Feb '11

Hi! My daughter Savanah took the American Red Cross Babysitter Certification class on Saturday, and is eager to put her new knowledge to work! The class included developmental information, as well as basic first aid skills, in addition to hands-on lessons (like diapering). Savanah is 12, the oldest of 4, and a homeschooled 6th grader. She is available at a wide variety of times! At the moment (until she has had enough practice), she is looking for 1-3 hour gigs in a home with the parent present. If you would like to meet her (and interview her), please send me an email at typhoon.emily(a)gmail.com and be sure to include your phone number so that she can call you up to arrange things! --Emily, King Ave http://healthylivingconsultant.info/

Well, we're really tired of them!!! We have at least 1-2/day and they appear out of nowhere. Is this a problems with others? I really am a good housekeeper and don't have a problem with any other pests. Does anyone have ideas about an exterminator or a way to get rid of them?? Thanks. Linda Jackson St

[Highland Park] Lenten Fish Fry
by Stamatis Marinos 08 Feb '11

08 Feb '11

Hi Neighbors, I'm working on a documentary project about local fish frys and was looking for suggestions. I know the Diocese of Pittsburgh always puts out a list of local parish frys, but I'm looking for personal recommendations- where's the best food? the best atmosphere? the longest running? the most neighborhood-y? do you know folks who work there? have they been doing it forever? I'm sure you get the general idea. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,Stamatis sdmarinos(a)yahoo.com

Hey Neighbors, Someone left an IPhone in one of my shopping baskets last night. Unfortunately, it had very few contacts in it and no way for me to decipher which one to call (home, hubby, etc). Hopefully someone here will connect with the owner. Thanks, Rob -- Bryant Street Market 5901 Bryant Street Pittsburgh PA 15206 Phone: (412) 661 8720 Hours: Mon-Fri 9 AM to 7 PM Sat-Sun 9 AM to 5 PM

[Highland Park] car break- ins
by Kate 07 Feb '11

07 Feb '11

After reading about the recent car break-ins I wanted to re-post this information. This morning I found a change tray and a garage door remote in the 5600 block of Callowhill. Costly items to replace so if they belong to you get in touch. katield1(a)verizon.net. Kate .....seemed like a good idea at the time!
