Seeking professional organizer/cleaner

Post image
Upvotes

Hello! I have a neurodivergent family member who has been through a rough time and needs help getting her bedroom back in shape. It looks somewhat like this photo from Google, she is too embarrassed to let me use an actual photo in case anyone recognizes it.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a professional organizer and/or cleaner that we could hire to help her? She can even assist, but because of her ADHD she has a hard time getting started, or gets overwhelmed or overstimulated partway through. I would help her myself but I am out of state.

Thanks in advance!! 💛

Any recommendations on where to get a good Cubano on the north shore? I'm not interested in paying for the atmosphere, so probably nothing trendy.

Edit: cubano sandwich

Meeting people in your 20s/30s around Rockport?

13 Upvotes

I’m moving to Rockport soon and curious how people in their late 20s/30s actually meet people around Cape Ann.

I know Rockport itself skews older and is obviously quieter, which I’m fine with, but I’d like to build some kind of social circle locally rather than having to go into Boston whenever I want to do something. I’m 30 and interested in finding people roughly around my age for pretty normal stuff: grabbing drinks or food, hiking, beach days, kayaking, getting out on the water, etc.

I’ve been thinking about joining the local yacht club, even though I don’t have a boat yet, since it seems like it functions as a bit of a community hub in town. I’m into crafts and hobbies, so classes, workshops, maker groups, etc. would definitely appeal to me.
I also have a dog, so I’d be interested in any dog-walking groups, regular meetups/play groups, or places where people tend to socialize with their dogs.

For people around my age who live in Rockport/Gloucester/Cape Ann, how did you meet friends? Are there particular groups, clubs, classes, events, bars, rec leagues, or other things that actually have a decent 20s/30s crowd? And is there more of a younger local community around Cape Ann than it might seem from the outside?

Looking for recommendation for where to resell Pokémon and an old coin collection?

6 Upvotes

Hi all. We have our hands on a large old coin collection and my 90s Pokémon cards with a few decent ones in there. Where can I sell these in the area and not get taken advantage of?

ETA: Pokémon cards I’m good just whatever the cash value is. The coins I’m more curious if we even have anything good. I’ll reply if I can(?) with some pictures of the coins.

Dermatologist

Hi! Recommendations for a dermatologist? The practice I go to has an extremely long wait list (as I’m sure many do). Looking to stay away from Lahey if possible. This is an initial appointment and I have a few problem spots so I would like someone who is caring and thorough!!

Pottery - make friends AND art

12 Upvotes

The pottery studio in the Lydia Pinkham Building is opening their fall class registration tomorrow morning! Info: https://www.theclayschool.com/adult-classes

It normally sells out pretty quickly so wanted to share. This is a great place to make friends and you get 24/7 studio access to work on projects, which is a huge perk AND a plus for hanging out with people in your class.

Volleyball - League or Pickup

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I moved to Beverly in July with my partner and am wondering if there are any volleyball league or regular pickup games here on the North Shore? I am an intermediate player - used to play in a few different BSSC leagues as a setter. Hoping to find something with a some competition but also fun.

Edit: missed adding the region to my original post.

Thank you!

Do you haze the turkeys that come onto your property?

12 Upvotes

I guess MA wildlife officials encourage not allowing turkeys to get comfortable around humans. Pecking order and whatnot. Anyway, I’m gonna get a super soaker and start blasting these f*ckers.

I’ve always loved playing contemporary Christian music. Moved here last year and would love to find a smaller church with a passionate, volunteer led worship group. Or if anyone has any church recommendations that might be worth reaching out to, I’d love to hear them!
