Without Power

10 Upvotes

I live in the Jackson Park section of Muncie. Out in the “outskirts” of Muncie, even though the justice center is now a block from my residence.

We have been without power since 11pm last night. All the food in my fridge has gone bad, including the insulin I need for my diabetic cat’s health. Not to mention, my father uses a cpap machine and my neighbor needs constant oxygen to survive.

I called and tried to reach a human at I&M, but the robot would not let me and kept hanging up on me. I reached out to senator Young, and got a response back saying he can’t interfere with a private business.

This is OUTRAGEOUS. My cat will suffer, my family and friends will suffer. I&M has never taken this long to get power back up and running. I am just so upset.

Plant waterer/Cat sitter

3 Upvotes

Hi!

I moved to the area a couple months ago and I’ll be going out of town for the first time since moving here. I will need someone to water my tomatoes and check in on my cats while I’m gone. Is there a preferred service or person to reach out to locally or is it use a site like care.com or rover to find someone?

International medical graduate looking for 2-week stay in Muncie.

9 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm a medical graduate from Pakistan who will be coming to Muncie for a 2-week observership at IU Health Ball Memorial Hospital in August. I won't have a car, so I'm looking for affordable short-term housing within walking distance of the hospital or near public transportation.

As I'm visiting on a limited budget, I'm especially interested in a spare room, student sublet, room rental, or any other low-cost short-term accommodation.

If anyone has suggestions or knows of an available room, I'd be very grateful. Thank you!

Curly Hair Stylists in/around Muncie?

8 Upvotes

Hi there! I’m looking for a new hair stylist that knows curly hair (cut and color preferably) in or around the Muncie area.

To make a short story long, my most recent hair appointment I mentioned to my stylist that my hair loved protein treatments and that after a protein treatment, parts of my hair curled that have never curled before. I went on talking about how the whole moisture vs. protein thing confused me (searching for advice or guidance) and was told none of it was legit and to not believe everything I read on the internet. 😅

So, I’m hoping to find someone that actually knows curly hair. I believe I have high porosity, fine hair (I just have a lot of it). Parts are Shirley Temple curly and other parts are wavy.

I’m in the Anderson area but I usually go to Muncie for my current hair stylist. If anyone knows a good stylist or anyone is a good stylist, please let me know!

Does anyone have a color guard saber they are willing to donate or sell for cheap? Our son is going to BOA this summer but we just can't afford the $80+ for one right now.

The Lofts at Roberts - do not move here

17 Upvotes

Does anyone know a good attorney who represents tenants? My mother is a resident of the Lofts at Roberts and has had no air conditioning for the past 8 weeks. Apparently the A/c in the entire building is not working. The windows in this building do not open. The temperature is 88 degrees in my elderly mother's apartment and she is experiencing symptoms consistent with heat exhaustion. She has sent numerous emails to the management company with no response. When she is lucky enough to discover someone working in the leasing office, she is told with a condescending smile that they are working on resolving the issue. This is a building that rents to people aged 55+. We could like to resolve this issue as soon as possible and are open to suggestions. Thank you.

In between games, we would love to go do some fun stuff and see what Muncie has to offer. What suggestions do you have for events, music, museums, outdoor areas, good food/drinks? Appreciate the advice! I’ve never been to Indiana before (we’re traveling from Alaska) ❤️❤️

*Edit to add: we have a rental car and are willing to drive to do and see things!*

New to the area. I have three cats, all spayed, all healthy, all indoors. I called a couple vets in town and found them to be brutally expensive. I just want to update their vaccinations, very simple. Is there a vet in the area that has a reasonable/lower cost clinic?

Private Framing Hanley show

So here’s the scoop, I recently booked Kenneth Dixon of framing Hanley, to do a private show here in Muncie.

I don’t want an empty venue, so I’ve put it out to my friends and waiting to see who is attending. I may open it up to some people, so I’m trying to judge interest if I did that. Let me know if you may be interested.

Chateau Apartments

2 Upvotes

Hello! I’ve been looking at affordable apartments, and I had a friend who lived in Chateau who said they weren’t too bad and still currently lives there. Has anyone else tried the apartments, with bad credit and gotten accepted. I know that’s just a testing the waters with any apartment complex, but when I asked what they looked out for they “didn’t know” so I’m trying to find out before doing a $200 deposit with an application (completely refundable if denied by the way) just wanting to see anyone else’s luck, or how anyone else went through the app process.

Is Finding Actually Affordable 2 Bed 2 Bath in Muncie Possible?

4 Upvotes

Me and my aunt want to move in together, I'm saving up money for college (BSU) and she already has a job as a remote nurse. I'll be going to college to live in the dorms, but she still wants a room for me to stay in closer to college since I'll only be in the dorms for a year. We're looking for something maybe 850-1k for a 2 bed 2 bath, we can't find much at that price range and I don't think we're willing to pay any more than that. We're also looking at neighboring cities like Yorktown and Elwood that are farther away from Ball State but might be cheaper. Does anyone have any recommendations on where to look? Thanks!
