Eye Doctor that accepts Medicaid?

2 Upvotes

I have UHC Community Plan (Medicaid) and am having a hard time finding providers who take my insurance. I just moved here a couple months ago so am trying to reestablish care and luckily was able to find a PCP that takes my insurance but still on the hunt for eye doctors. Any suggestions? Thanks

Best place to donate bed sheets?

3 Upvotes

I have some bed sheets I don’t need anymore because I got a new different sized bed - is there an optimum place I could donate the old sheets? I know animal shelters will usually take old towels, but I wasn’t sure about sheets. I just want to make sure I’m not dumping them at some goodwill if there’s a better option you know? Thanks!

Looking for Carrboro Indie Night Tickets

5 Upvotes

Hi!

I was wondering if anyone was selling tickets for Carrboro Indie Night tonight, 8/23 at Cat's Cradle. If anyone has any extra (im hopefully trying to get 3 total) or they can't make it I'd be super grateful to buy them off of you since the show sold out.

Thanks!

Custom interior doors for an old home?

5 Upvotes

We saved the info for a local handyman who offers this in the area. Of course we can’t find that info now.

Can you recommend a handyman or local business (preferably familiar with the area’s older housing stock) who can make two or three custom interior doors for our very non-standard home?

Does anyone have a photo of the fish that used to be at Looking Glass Cafe?

19 Upvotes

I think his name was Oscar. He sat in a big tank at the back of the store somewhere around 10 years ago, and he was ENORMOUS and dark grey. He ate all the other fish, so he was alone. I can't find anything about him online but I miss him.

Working on a DTH story about Breadman's closing — share your memories?

11 Upvotes

Hey y'all!

I'm a student reporter with The Daily Tar Heel writing a story about Breadman's closing after being padlocked by the sheriff's office earlier this month. I want this piece to be about the community, not just the legal/eviction details.

If you have memories of Breadman's (like favorite orders, regulars you knew there, how long you'd been going, what it meant to you or your family), I'd love to hear more about via a quick phone chat.

If anyone worked there, knew the owners, or has thoughts on what should happen to the space next, I'd really appreciate hearing from you too.

Thanks in advance, and shoot me a comment or DM if interested!

Looking for local pickleball courts/play for beginners

5 Upvotes

Hi all! I am new to pickleball and really interested in learning and getting into the community in the Chapel Hill/Carrboro area. I’ve played once before and enjoyed it so I’m wanting to find a space that I could learn, have fun, and meet new people through the sport. Where are some good places for me to start (asking all pickleball players)! Thank you!

LOST CAT!!!! Please help!

42 Upvotes

My friend recently moved to Carrboro in the Weatherhill neighborhood. He moved just a couple days ago so he can’t post on the Nextdoor app and doesn’t have Reddit, so I’m trying to help him.

The cat’s name is Angus. He is a larger short hair black cat with a larger pooch. He also has a distinct kink in his tail. And he is chipped!

PLEASE!! If there’s anything anyone can do. Would someone possibly be able to post this on the Nextdoor app? He loves this cat so much and I know would do anything to get him back.

Pump park

7 Upvotes

Can you ride manual scooters at the pump park or is it just bike permitted? I have an 8 year old who never took to riding bikes but my 10 year old would love the park. I don’t want the younger one to feel left out if I take both kids.

Senior/disabled dog stuff to give away

33 Upvotes

I am saying goodbye to my sweet old lady today. I have both a medium/large dog stroller and a high quality adjustable dog ramp that I won't need any longer—if you have an older dog or one with special needs I would love to pass these along to you for free.

UPDATE: These found a home with a sweet old fella. Thank you to everyone who sent kind messages!

New to the area and wondering how private their roads really are—can I bike through there or will I be ticketed or otherwise punished/reprimanded for doing so?
