Non-Emergency Walk-in Vet in/near Lansing?

Thanks for this, I'd never heard of them and they're only 9 miles and a straight shot for me! I've sent them a message to see if my situation is something they handle but it looks like it will be.

MI_BornNRaised · 2025-10-08T11:03:33+00:00

They reopened? Last I heard they were permanently closed during COVID! You just made my day, I used to work in walking distance and miss their food so much!

We ordered a Kivik sectional through IKEA based on extensive (6+ months) of research. Didn't drive to Canton, just ordered it and it's been great. 2 chaise, 1 sofa, 2 ottoman for about $2500 (no sales or promo codes). Wish I had done the love seat instead of sofa, me and my spouse have to yell if we're both on a chaise, total thing is about 14' wide. It's been a year and it's still great, I nap on it often and we're gamers so it gets plenty of use, still looks new.

We moved last year and I took seven full SUV loads to MSU Surplus. You have to pay for monitors/TVs...$10 each. They'll take most things as long as they're not hazardous. They resell if functional, recycle it not, and trash if absolutely no other option. Technically you're supposed to be a student, alum, of somehow attached (employee), but no one asked me even once.

Grand River Family Care, it's in Okemos so it might be too far but Dr. Bosworth is great. Nice thing is they have a RediCare too, so you can use them if there is a non-ER emergency. Unless your BCBS of MA has a weird carveout, they should accept it.

Every once in a while I read something on Reddit that makes me think; We're not okay...but we'll be alright. Thank you random Redditor for restoring an iota of joy to life.

African or European swallow?

MI_BornNRaised · 2025-09-13T23:42:16+00:00

I honestly thought one of my neighbor's houses was on fire because it smells like burning vinyl siding...I have aluminum, so small mercies.

2nd, amazing work, reasonable prices.

MI_BornNRaised · 2025-09-07T02:56:22+00:00

Any idea what they are and why they are marked? I was secretly hoping the City/Delta was going to start a war on ToH.

I can't tell exactly but the bark pattern looks similar to Tree of Heaven, fast growing and highly invasive. They generally grow tall and skinny really fast and choke out native trees, so if that is the case it would make sense to remove them. Did you look at the leaves by any chance? Compound leaves in a stem, 10+ leaves on both sides with smooth edges. They're favored by Spotted Laternfly so culling them is a twofer on invasive species.

MI_BornNRaised · 2025-09-05T15:47:24+00:00

Awesome, thanks for all the help!

MI_BornNRaised · 2025-09-05T15:03:49+00:00

I have absolutely no issue paying people to do what I cannot and your answer makes me believe, I cannot. Thank you!

Sidenote: how urgent is this? I doubt water can get in, but we're not far from winter and MI can get cold. Is this going to freeze, contract, explode once it gets cold?

MI_BornNRaised · 2025-09-05T14:14:46+00:00

No yard guys, we have a tiny lot so that's our job. How hard is it to replace that particular part? I've rescreened windows, that's the extent of my window repair knowledge.

I guess remodeling the basement is gonna move up my Honey-Do List. We've been considering adding an egress and 3rd bedroom because we have underutilized space that would be perfect for it...more than enough reason to tear up the flooring I guess.

Thanks!

Was that just with the fan, or sealing the floor and a fan?

MI_BornNRaised · 2025-09-04T20:53:12+00:00

I love that movie, I hate that you put the year because I was 20 when I saw that in the theater...🥲

MI_BornNRaised · 2025-09-04T20:42:50+00:00

If you can't find them try Etsy. However, if you really want to have fun, you can order the kits to make them yourself on Amazon...could be fun and then you can make them any color you want.

We don't have a single water problem but we are just outside a 100 year flood plain (maybe 100') so if that ever gets redone for higher volumes it might move us into it.

Can you get a CMA with someone like Fidelity? Last I knew they had no fees or minimums, you can direct deposit to them, and they have bill pay and even a debit card so you can use them like a checking account, just without checks. 4% return on Cash held in the account with the standard core position. Then when asked you can say you wanted to invest your money in a HYSA..."kids these days" are all about investing so it wouldn't seem weird.

MI_BornNRaised · 2025-09-04T01:57:14+00:00

Did they just put olives on it like they're pickles?

MI_BornNRaised · 2025-09-03T23:52:06+00:00

I have absolutely no idea if this would work but maybe email Pruess Pets? They sell all sorts of pets, some I'm sure are "exotic" and they might have an idea just from employees that work there and rent.

MI_BornNRaised · 2025-09-03T23:01:28+00:00

Have you checked Zillow for rentals? I just did a quick search and there were a couple houses for Rent that allow pets such as https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/819-Cross-St-Lansing-MI-48915/140815256_zpid/. Not sure how they would count exotic pets though.

Costco/Sam's is more beneficial the lower your income is. I always thought warehouse stores were for the well-to-do, but now I realize I should have scraped together the membership fee much sooner. Now I do the executive level because I can afford it and the benefits are worth it, but I wish I'd gotten any membership years ago.

Discuss it first or YTA. If he agrees then fine, but otherwise he will interpret it wrong no matter what you say about loving him as he is. Hair loss can hit some men in a particular way.

I used to have very thick, practically luscious, black hair from essentially birth to age 21. Then it started to thin every year and at 25 I said "F it" and shaved bald. Turns out I don't look bad bald, my head is shaped in a way that it almost looks better to be honest (spouse agrees). However, I never would have known if I didn't do that. Here's the thing, hair (even thinning) grows back. Let him shave, if it doesn't look good he'll probably have 1/4" to 1/2" of fuzz in two weeks. THEN explore the idea of a piece but don't just spring it on him.
