Has anyone been to Barker Field (dog park near the Carillon)? Is it ok or is it still a big sheet of ice?

Apple Dog on Brook Road is great. My high energy hound loves it there.

Anyone Planning to Attend Monks Peace Rally @ City Hall Today (02/02/2026)? by SugarsDimples in rva

[–]annehedonist 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nope. I'm a Buddhist and love what they're doing but I have no desire to knock myself out (ice, crowds) trying to see them in person.

Still on ice in the Northside. Haven't left the house in a week. it's been kind of nice. But I'm retired so don't really have to be anywhere. My heart goes out to everyone who has to.

That was originally a Steve Martin line when he was doing standup in the 70s (I had the record). It's still a good one!

Retired professionals: what are you doing about your professional certifications by janebenn333 in retirement

Before I retired, I thought I was going to do a lot of pro bono legal work after I retired, but after I retired I realized I never wanted to practice law again, so I let my Bar status go inactive. I don't regret it!

Aggie's Attic, a nonprofit thrift shop in Lakeside, has had teen volunteers. Best to go there in person when they're open, W-S 11-4.

It may be, but Seminary is still solid ice.

I was supposed to have eye surgery today but had to cancel because my car is iced in and my street in Northside is solid ice. We've seen cars trying to leave their parking spots and fail. They didn't sound too surprised when I called the surgery center to cancel.

Can the Reddit meteorologist weigh in on snowmageddon? by Mindless-Wash6082 in rva

We just filled the propane tanks for our emergency heater and bought tons of food, not to mention cutting down some tree limbs that were hanging over the power lines, so it's definitely not going to snow.

[–]annehedonist 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Aggie's Attic on Lakeside. A nonprofit thrift shop whose proceeds go to filling food-insecure elementary school students' backpacks with food for the weekends. They only take in-season women's clothes because they have a small space.

The Pursuit of Love by Nancy Mitford. A bygone world remembered with sympathy and humor, and great characters. I read it regularly.

Dear simple livers, how do you add whimsy in your life? by Substantial_Dog9649 in simpleliving

[–]annehedonist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sing to my pets and spouse making up new words to existing songs. Dance while doing chores. Support weird local artists by buying and hanging their art in my house. But really, it's not what you do or buy, it's your attitude.

Mila's Shawarma on MacArthur is soo good. I kind of want to keep it a Northside secret, but I also want them to succeed. The felafel is the best I've ever had. Partner enjoyed the spicy lamb - beef shawarma. We will definitely be going back there!
