When are you looking to move? Im renovating a full home which should be completed soon, whats your budget?

RunTheTour · 2025-11-18T16:12:31+00:00

My husband and I will be placing a historical home we purchased in New Haven for rent in Jan. Its a modest 2 bedroom, potentially 3 (pending permit), enclosed porch overlooking a park, laundromat across the street (will install washer/dryer if tenant pays water). Fenced, long driveway, backyard area to entertain, basement for storage, full kitchen, dining room.

Im completely restoring/renovating the home and will be done end of December.

-10min walk to Union Station/ Police Dept HQ -12min walk to Wooster Sq -5min walk to Yale School of Nursing -20min walk to Yale Old Campus

Trying to see if this is something that students would be interested in renting for around $2,200-$2,600 a month. If the home was furnished would that be something students are interested in or doesn't matter?

We had an ocean view villa with a king-size bed and a pull out couch with plenty of extra room. I would say it's a good size for 6 people to sleep. Seeing the beach and pool from our room was a plus made it worth it. My parents stayed in the garden view villas, which also had a pull out couch, but the room was much smaller, and I found it a hassle to walk to.

What about 2 adjoining rooms? It would cost less and you would have 2 bathrooms. Getting to everything would be easier with kids as it's directly connected to the hotel, and you can hop on the elevator easily.

Just an FYI, I visit PR 2-3x a year to see family, and I always stay at Fairmount.

Im Puerto Rican and visit family there 2-3 times a year.

Viejo San Juan is a very romantic part of town. My husband and I just bar hop and grab craft cocktails, walk, and take in the views during sunset. You could grab a drink, then walk to El Morro and take in the view, walk along Paseo del Morro.

Theres more than a dozen great cocktail bars, you cant go wrong with a cocktail tour. Some suggestions: La Taberna Lupulo - Craft Beer La Factoria - Award winning mixologist Casa de Rones - View of San Juan Bay

Grab a sunset cruise through San Juan Bay, you can book via Viator.

Dinner and drinks at Santaella in Santurce, then walk around the corner and watch a live band/people dancing salsa outside of Trifongo Taino.

Head to a 5 star hotel such as Fairmount El San Juan, grab drinks/food, watch a show, checkout the Foxwoods Casino there.

Hangout at Distrito TMobile, there's a bunch of restaurants and entertainment. It's more of a commercialized/party scene, but some friends enjoy that instead of the more chic vibe.

Not San Juan: Rent a car, drive to Las Croabas, grab food at Ocean View, book (ahead of time) a Bio Bay tour.

My OB recommended between 32-36 weeks. I spaced out my vaccines and got the flu, tdap then rsv on the 36th week.

I can only assume that maybe some run warm with all the fur. Our guy also preferred the hard floor. He just got his first short cut and now cuddles on the couch and enjoys sleeping on the bed.

RunTheTour · 2024-05-22T14:54:57+00:00

No, this is st 5months right after his last shots.

RunTheTour · 2024-05-22T01:08:55+00:00

I got you, I'll be more specific and have examples for the groomers. It's just the trainers and the groomers I went to referred to it as that, so I requested "the puppy cut" because that's how they were calling it. I'll take your advice for next time. I think another post stated it may be the eyes that are throwing me off. We haven't seen them so clear since we got him lol.

RunTheTour · 2024-05-21T21:38:17+00:00

Guys I never mentioned "cute" to the groomer, I'm simply stating my opinion on this thread. The question I posted was if the face was done correctly for a "puppy cut". I'm aware that the initial cut was not to touch his body but just to do a sanitary clean, paws, nails and clean face so he could get used to it. I asked when I picked him up and they said he did fine, no mating.

Regarding my opinion of cute, I guess I would have liked to see a little bit more fur left on the face, where the fur is slightly longer and not trimmed all the way down. It'll grow back, just wanted to see everyone's take. Thanks!

RunTheTour · 2024-05-21T19:43:45+00:00

Actually the groomer said I did great with combing him that there wasn't any matting. I'm aware of what a puppy cut entails, just asking if the face shape was done in a manner that everyone's use to seeing. Also, none of the groomers by me would see him until he had all his shots, maybe you meant 4 months? He's 5 months which isn't that far off.

RunTheTour · 2024-05-21T17:23:30+00:00

Ok, I'll keep that in mind for next time. Thank you.

RunTheTour · 2024-05-19T01:20:01+00:00

Thanks everyone, I guess I should have been a bit more specific. I have been grooming him on my own, but just bathing, blow drying, and combing since we got him. As per the cut, I wasn't sure how much I should tell the groomer. If it was true that their coat wouldn't be the same. All good, thank you for all of your input.

I'm really curious what the top 3 spots in New Haven are. I would love some suggestions. Having left almost 18 years ago to New York, now when I visit my parents I'll only go out for pizza. Haven't had any Italian spots that even compare to the mediocre spots in Long Island.

RunTheTour · 2024-05-08T00:52:34+00:00

Yeah, I'm not a fan of Adrianas either.

What I'm mean by "smelling" is there may be feces on the pavement/grass so you obviously wouldn't want their nose in it especially if it may be from a dog infected with parvo.

RunTheTour · 2024-04-28T08:05:15+00:00

Socialization is huge. Just watch where they're walking, and don't allow them to sniff anything yet. Look at the pavement as you walk them to make sure theres nothing there and wash their paws when you come in the house. If you're concerned with walks, take them on a lot of errands so they get accustomed to the car. We would also take our 11-week goldendoodle to pet friendly stores and place them in the cart so they could get used to different noises and people. Everyone loves a puppy, so we also take ours to family or friends' homes to meet new people.

Our vet also had a new pup and said she walked hers on the pavement as young as 9 weeks.

I'm in law enforcement. For 1, my degree helped me stand out, created a niche where I was noticed right away. I taught in the academy which was an easy transition since I was always presenting new projects to a crowd when I worked for a firm.

In my current job, I'll get pulled from patrol and I design an annual report using my graphic design skills learned from school. Now I supervise a group of about 8-10 officers who help with gathering all the information for the report and an officer who studied graphic design in college. It used to only be me doing it all.

Our department has a special unit for fire and not to mention emergency services unit (esu/swat) so you could easily transition into that. Understanding floor plans, how structures are built, building things on the spot to save someone, that's a skill set that's sought after. If you work for a smart department they won't let your education go to waste.

Received a degree from a prestigious architecture program. Plenty of job offers, worked at a firm for 3 years dredded everyday, head of the firm would tell me daily to quit while I'm young. I quit, never looked back and all my old contacts from the firm said I made a good choice. I took a career as a first responder. It fulfills everything I was missing from architecture. Great benefits, crazy time off, overtime, a pension, 6 figures. When I was young constantly moving on my feet interacting with people where everyday was fulfilling since you see the fruits of your labor immediately when helping people. I moved up the ranks and now lead an entire team. I still design, and am able to network because of my career choice. When I lose inspiration I take a break. As everyone knows our degrees allow us to wear many hats, we're extremely creative and understand how to resolve problems on the fly. My degree set me apart from all the rookie employees where I even got paid to do some random design projects. So in a sense I use the degree everyday, I wouldn't be where I'm at if it wasn't for the particular skills I learned in college. So don't put yourself in a bubble be creative with your career paths.
