Recently the sweet poodle I have been walking for 2 years died.

It was an ideal job--he needed walking between 11a-12/noon, was close to home,
and he was non-aggressive. In fact, I never even had to walk
him on a leash. He always stayed close to me.

Now I'm looking for another dog-walking job on or close
to Cap Hill/CD area. If you need a reliable walker
with lots of love to give, and impeccable references,
please let me know.

Thank you, Seattle! Hope you're enjoying your summer.

Here's a friend who needs help. She is not in Seattle - she is in the southern part of the state. But maybe there is some place in Seattle that might be able to help her(?)

“Look before you leap “is an evergreen idiom. Review is the short word that describes this saying. We need a manual to understand and use any new product effectively and we need a guide to explore and enjoy the beauty of new places.

But no manual describes the demerits of the product and no guide explains how to travel different places at an affordable cost. Customers choose to purchase online to save time and effort in a busy lifestyle. The lack of patient and up to date explanation about the product may cause loss of time and money of the customers.

To make up this need, we are at your service by honest and patient explanation about pros and cons of the products through our reviews available any time and any place at our fingertips.

We hope we guide you by our reviews about the products available in the market with up to date information available with our experience which are more supportive to you. A smile costs nothing, but it makes the moment more beautiful. Our reviews may cost you a moment, but add to your comfort and safety.

Outdoor Star Trek

lettered — Fri, 10 Jul 2015 20:13:21 GMT

Outdoor Trek is an episode of The Original Series of Star Trek adapted for the stage and performed live in Seattle’s Blanche Lavizzo Park. This year’s episode is “Amok Time” (yes, the one where Spock goes into heat). Starting July 18, the play runs every Saturday at 7pm and every Sunday at 2pm and ends August 9. Pre-shows start and hour before the show and food trucks will be at every event. Outdoor Trek features a live band, genderbending casting, and a DIY aesthetic that makes Star Trek’s optimistic future feel close to home.

The play is free. Spread the word.

Please give blood: Heat wave blood shortage and new much shorter deferral times for tattoos

jeliza — Sun, 05 Jul 2015 16:17:43 GMT

The heat wave has severely disrupted blood donations (many mobile drives had to be canceled) especially for O-, O+ and A-

If you a freshly inked and so think you aren't eligible, when I was at the blood center yesterday they said the deferral period has been shortened from a year to 3 days as long as you got your ink at a licensed WA, OR, CA or ID artist who uses sterile equipment.

Also, there is air conditioning, free cookies, and usually wi-fi.

July 4th tends to be a spike in blood need anyway, so please donate if you can.

(Unfortunately, the ban on men who have ever had sex with men is still in place; the blood centers are just as mad about it as I am but the FDA is currently holding the line.)

camping, drumming, singing, fire

iamkatia — Wed, 17 Jun 2015 00:30:22 GMT

hi seattle!

i'm organizing a camping trip for my african drumming students on the last wknd of june.
we thought we had a place picked out but it turns out we can't have a fire there.

can anyone offer suggestions as to where we could camp and drum?
it would have to be pretty close to where we park our cars because we have heavy drums.
couldn't be too close to others cos we'll be drumming A LOT.
would be great if campfires were allowed.
also, would like it to be within 2 hrs drive of seattle.

would love your thoughts! thank you!!

Get rid of a couch

Local Seattle author and soap-maker

elenbarathi — Wed, 01 Apr 2015 17:25:14 GMT

Some of you on this comm already know my daughter, who grew up over here on the Peninsula, but who's lived in Seattle since her college days.

'Riptide', the sequel to 'Breakwater' by Lee Hadan, will be published THIS MONTH, yay!!! and the third book of the Storm Surge trilogy, 'Undertow', is well underway.

Lee is willing to come to Seattle classrooms to give talks about writing, being a writer, and becoming a published author. You can contact her here.

Also, Asterism Soaps, her Etsy business, has a lot of brand-new products up, and they're gorgeous - she's definitely going to have to put "Do Not Eat" labels on some of these, because they look and smell so delectable. Of her new Coffee Scrub soap, she said "I want to roll in it." Can't wait to try it myself!

Maid service upon moving into new apartment

thiscantbesoy — Tue, 31 Mar 2015 11:34:32 GMT

Hello folks!

Has anyone ever used a maid service when moving into an empty apartment? Specifically looking for one that will get into the nitty gritties: Inside cupboards and drawers, inside the fridge, cabinets, shelves, wipe the walls, you name it, just really prepare the place for a new move-in.

Does anyone have a favorite?

We're in the Everett area, if it makes a difference.

Thanks for any and all reccs!

need help finding an apartment.

ballroom — Wed, 18 Mar 2015 02:07:40 GMT

I've been scouring the internet and checking craiglist every day for over a month now to try to find an apartment that might fit our needs, but I'm not finding much. I wanted to post here and just see if by chance anyone knows of a place that might work?

myself and my friend are looking for a 2 bedroom apartment (2 bath is preferable but we can do 1 bath) with all or mostly hardwood floors on the east side. She works in Redmond, so we want to stay in the Kirkland/Bellevue/Redmond/Issaquah area to shorten her commute.

- we need an apartment with as much hardwood/non-carpeted floors as possible because I have a cat with IBD, which causes him to vomit sometimes and I don't want to be stuck in a situation where I am cleaning cat puke out of a carpet and also lose my deposit or cause a headache for the apartment owners.

- amenities don't matter too much, but a in unit washer and dryer would be fantastic.

- aside from my cat I have one small dog, he's about 8 lbs. so we need a pet friendly place.

- our budget is $1,500 - $1,600 (including w/s/g preferably)

thank you anyone who might know of something!

ballroom — Mon, 05 Jan 2015 12:13:53 GMT

anybody know a good house cleaning service in the area? I have a small apartment and I'm hoping I can find a place that will do a one time cleaning and not cost me $100+ :(

codevixen — Sat, 03 Jan 2015 02:02:57 GMT

I have some things I'd like to donate that I don't think would be accepted at a thrift store, so I guess I'm looking for a women's shelter or some other place that would appreciate them. They're UNOPENED and UNEXPIRED medical and health supplies, like alcohol prep pads, melatonin pills, gauze pads, soap and tampons. I'm in north Seattle, near Shoreline. Any suggestions?

reasonable cost of spring break airfare to Kauai?

glass_lion — Wed, 24 Dec 2014 20:41:25 GMT

I'm looking at about $850pp (with 1 stop) if booking today for mid-April. That seems steep. What's your experience been?

seeking: iPhone repair options that are not the Genius Bar

littlebluedog — Mon, 06 Oct 2014 19:06:15 GMT

Dusting off the LJ account to ask for personal recs for iPhone repair people.

Had a dude in Portland who could fix any Apple product on the cheap, an ex-Genius who went solo. I'd much prefer to follow that route now that I'm in Seattle, but don't know anyone.

Problem is with my old iPhone 4, which took a dunk in a puddle and now won't sync or charge via the 30-pin connector, and there's data (mostly photos) on there I'd like to recover. (Hadn't synced in quite a while, and my iCloud backup didn't include this data.)

Thanks in advance for any help.

haulers

seattle_mary — Tue, 23 Sep 2014 19:54:03 GMT

Anyone have any recommendations regarding haulers? I need to donate a piano,a chair, and then have "stuff" that will go to the dump. If you have any idea what this might cost - or know of a company, please let me know.

Stuff it.

apestyle — Tue, 26 Aug 2014 16:54:11 GMT

Hey Seattle,

I'm raising funds to stuff backpacks full of school supplies to help the teens that YouthCare look over. If you can spare $10 or more, please pitch in at: https://www.crowdrise.com/thebackpackinitiative

Hey all. 33, new to Seattle as of mid-July. Married, stay-at-home mommy to a 7 year-old cutie pie. Living in West Seattle. Looking for other moms with kiddos around my daughter's age for meetups or playdates. School is starting soon, and I wouldn't mind having someone to shop with, explore, or just go for a walk with during school hours. Anyone?
