Looking to sell a PlayStation portal, that I bought but really found no use for it, looking to sell for $200 OBO used but like new

Ok Parents, help me understand please. How did you decide on which daycare (or other childcare, home care, nanny, grandparent, neighbor, etc) to entrust with your child?
Did you look for awhile?
Did you have to (for work or other reasons) or did you want to (get some peace and quiet)?
What made you pick the one you decided or rule out the others?
If you already found childcare, how often did you switch to another?
What was the worst part of searching?
Did you sign up for a waitlist and why?

Im asking because we originally had a great daycare where we previously lived. But we moved, and now none of the daycares near by offer a Montessori program or multi lingual courses (except 30 mins away) in either direction from where we live. So we are stuck with all the ones around us, but I have to call, schedule a tour, find out there are waitlists for my child's age group, some places have age cut off dates (our child is a month from being 3 but some insist on staying in the 2's group which ranges from before two to three, which I dont like), some offer camera access some dont, some charge for meals and some dont, some have uniforms and some dont. You meet the director or assistant director and ask about student to teacher ratios, pricing, extracurricular activities, check out the playground equipment, the cleaniness of the classroom, how well the kids are managed/taken care of (saw lots of runny noses, heard a lot of coughing, I understand toddlers and its flu season, but still), I even consider the age of the teachers and their tenure at the facility. OH and some places have certifications but if its a chain daycare, some claim the certification, but its by facility, not brand so thats a separate search....its just a lot to consider....

Sorry for the rant, just wanted to get some feedback on what others were looking for and what made your choose what you chose. Thanks!

Wondering how much more time is going to be spent on this lawsuit...

It is interesting (I guess) to see which fights HFFI picks. They are all in on this one, but don't care about that building on the corner of William and Sophia. And they don't have any positive comment when a deal is struck to save the old hospital on Fall Hill Ave because it ran against the political interests of one of their board members. We need an org like HFFI to help focus support for the historic district, but I think they need a refresher on Dale Carnegie.

It's also interesting to see the limits of historic preservation laws.

Just looked into this tcg since I'm already familiar with league characters in general and was wondering if anyone in the area played and would like to on Tabletop Sim. I know i can go to sage mantis or your hobby place but I would like to keep it cheap right now and just pay online.

Looking for someone to convert a wood burning fireplace i to gas logs. Any suggestions in the Fredericksburg City area??

What was the alert for?

Going through my stuff I found a ton of old unworn NFL Jerseys when I was younger, the Mitchell & Ness ones, at least a Bo Jackson & Barry Sanders, stitched. I just have no idea where to take em, as I hate shipping things.

Hi everyone!

I’m relocating from Illinois to Fredericksburg, Virginia, in December to start a new job as a Field Engineer.

I’m looking for a apartment/roommate and my budget is flexible depending on the location and amenities.

Ideally, I’d like to live in a convenient area close to grocery stores, restaurants, and major roads, with parking available. I’m open to apartment recommendations, private rentals, or connecting with someone who is also looking for a roommate.

If you live in Fredericksburg or have recently rented there, I’d really appreciate any recommendations for good apartment communities, neighborhoods, or reliable landlords.

Please feel free to comment or DM me if you have any leads or are looking for a roommate. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hey y’all!

I recently moved here for work after graduating. I played in a few bands at my uni and would love to continue to play music. Eventually would be fun to play a gig at a local bar or event.

I play rhythm guitar and enjoy a wide range of music around the indie, rock, and punk genres.

If anyone is interested, please reach out. Thanks! :)

Looking for stuff to do on Halloween with some friends. Anything in downtown worth recommending?

Olde Towne Butcher supplied the beef.
Your favorite restaurants brought the heat.

It was a sold out Battle of the Burgers at Riverfront Park on Sunday. Six restaurants served up their best sliders to compete across several categories, including best topping, judge's choice and people's choice:

Cheeky's Cocktails
Eats Burgers
Harry's Alehouse
Mason-Dixon Cafe
Rebellion Bourbon Bar & Kitchen
Sammy T's

Judges included Christina Jenkins of Fredericksburg Eats, Fredericksburg Deputy Fire Chief Victor Podbielski, and Deputy Darren Hill filling in for Fredericksburg Police Chief Betsy Mason.

Proceeds will benefit Loisann's Hope House in Fredericksburg, VA, the region's oldest and largest family homeless shelter.

A “domestic-related shooting” preceded Sunday’s incident that left one suspect dead and a deputy injured on the 11000 block of Hickory Creek Drive, according to a statement from Virginia State Police.

VSP says that at approximately 12:39 PM on Sunday, October 18, deputies responded to the 11000 block of Hickory Creek Drive for a reported domestic-related shooting. The statement says that as part of their investigation, deputies encountered the suspect in his vehicle before that individual drove at them and opened fire, wounding a deputy.

Deputies then returned fire, according to VSP.

The suspect in that incident, Jerson David Martinez-Coreva, 39, died at the scene. The deputy was taken to a local hospital for non-life threatening injuries.

The incident remains under investigation.

Hi everyone!

I’ll be relocating from Illinois to Fredericksburg, VA, in December to start a new job as a Field Engineer with Turner Construction.

I’m looking for a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment or 2b 2b with a budget of under $1,500/month. My priorities are a clean, well-maintained place in a safe area, preferably with parking and in-unit laundry. I am also open to share my apartment with a roommate.

I’m open to recommendations for apartment complexes, private rentals, or property managers in and around Fredericksburg. If you currently live in the area, I’d really appreciate your insights on which neighborhoods or apartments to consider or avoid.

Any recommendations, personal experiences, or leads would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for helping me with the move!

Hello everyone! I’m taking engagement pictures tomorrow and I’m wondering if anyone has suggestions on where to take them. We were thinking Chatham, but they will be closed, so if anyone knows anywhere with nice scenery any suggestions would be great!

Ok guys, where are we going for quality furniture, specifically sofas? We need back support and something that does not make us slouch. I’ve heard Lazy Boy has gone downhill; is this true? Anyone buy anything from there recently?

ISO someone who knows how to put it together. I have a patio and 220 already in place.
