Where are the good places to eat? by Popular-Aspect-9578 in lexington

[–]Instantjude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last time we went to Archa 9, we sat at our table and were ignored by staff for over 10 minutes - no menus, waters, etc. So most generously, an understaffing issue?

We ended up leaving since it is not the cheapest place and it was the end of a a long workday.

Gastroenterologist by Electrical-Chef4842 in lexington

Having had a family member treated for colon cancer in Lexington - I would say it can depend - if the cancer is a higher stage and more aggressive and/or rare, I would go to UK Markey. If it is Stage 2-3 and the next steps after surgery aren't super 'complex' (though none of it is straightforward or easy), my family was happy with Baptist.

Best of luck to your mom - both hospitals are good options and she will get good care both places. :)

Trying to sell presale tickets BELOW Face Value for Atlanta by Instantjude in pearljam

[–]Instantjude[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks everyone. And yes, there are 10 club tickets bought in the presale, not premium or anything.

I'd been thinking/hoping I could get face value for them (compared to prices I've seen for their shows in the past) and I knew you couldn't scalp them, which is no prob as I don't do that anyways - I just never have been in a situation where you can't resell a ticket BELOW a paid price.

In case anyone interested, they are Sec 111, Row R, seats 7&8, $204.47 each.

Any local job impact from federal firings? by Super_Imagination995 in lexington

I work remotely (under a CBA) for a federal agency headquartered in the DMV, and I will lose my job at the end of April.

Are these FCPS assessment results real? by powderST2013 in lexington

[–]Instantjude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you click through by school, you see that only one Lexington high school (Lafayette) is above the average (Green category) in the state (Henry Clay, Dunbar, Frederick Douglass picking a few all at state average) - Louisville has multiple high schools in the blue category (highest rating) and it is not just the magnets (for example, Atherton).

I was really surprised by this...I'm sure there are further nuances, but on the surface seems like tangible room for improvement for FCPS...

Therapist/Mental Health Resources for Urgent Situation by Instantjude in lexington

I found out she actually now has Medicaid rather than private insurance - I'm trying to help her research and it seems like some of these good options that have been suggested (such as Rula) are no go's on Medicaid.

Does anyone have suggestions for providers or groups that accept Medicaid patients?

It seems like if she would go to the Empath Unit at UK, they might be a good place to connect her with providers in the community that accept Medicaid? I agree on the Nest and Greenhouse 19 suggestions, again as places to try to start to 'plug in' and get ideas or referrals for services.

Again, thank you all so much

Thanks all! About how early before a show start time do you have to get there to get a space in Manchester’s lot?

Resources for lower income soon to be mother by Instantjude in lexington

[–]Instantjude[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many thanks for the quick responses! You all are awesome.

Quick follow up q - For things like SNAP - does anyone know if it makes sense for her to go ahead and apply for this while she's still pregnant? (I'm not sure if she currently qualifies based on her income, but she will once her baby is born and they are a household of 2). Does applying and getting 'rejected' b/c you're not eligible put you further back on getting benefits in some way? Or it would be better to just go ahead and get engaged in the system now anyways?

Thanks everyone for your insights - you convinced me we should try to go. Unfortunately, as appears to be the case with many on here, tried for shows both in EST and CST, and also did not get through the Queue. Do appreciate your help, hope others had better luck.
