DFW – Hoping to reach the right person

This is hard to share, but I’m an undergrad in the DFW area in need of a kidney donor (blood type O).

I’m currently working with my transplant team at Medical City Dallas, and a healthy donor could truly save my life.

Even if you are not of the same blood type, your donation can still help me through our hospital’s kidney donation swap program. Donors and recipients are paired to find compatible matches

Our insurance will cover all the testing and medical costs for the donor

Comprehensive protection and support for living kidney donors through(www.Donorshield.com)

If you’re open to learning more or want details, please feel free to contact me at (214) 702-3488. Even sharing this post would mean so much to me.

Thank you for taking a moment to read this.

Heard gunshots around rosemeade and marsh this past Wednesday night. Don’t think they were fireworks. Anyone know what that was about?

Knife sharpening

Hello,

Does anyone know a good person that sharpens kitchen knives? I'd prefer someone with a whetstone, but that might be wishful thinking.

Pay Your Age Photography Shoots!

Howdy Neighbors!

It's great to meet you :) My name is Eliza and I'm a photographer in the Carrollton / Farmer's Branch / Addison area. I don't have a huge portfolio yet at this stage in my career, so I'd love to offer you and your family a Pay Your Age shoot!

The rules are simple: you and up to three people meet with me for an hour at a location of your choice (within reason), I do a full session with you, and you get the edits back within two weeks! Someone over the age of 18 must be present at the shoot with a form of ID, and no payment until you receive the photos! If multiple people are at the shoot, only one person needs to pay. My one request is that you sign an agreement allowing me to use your photos as marketing and portfolio content if possible. (I will not use AI or upload any of your photos to an AI database; everything will be edited by hand!)

Send me a DM to get started, and thank you for giving me a chance to tell your story!

What’s up with the produce people at the Carrollton farmers market?

I was curious to know if anybody had any info on the people who sell produce at the Sunday Farmer’s Market next to Petco.

Sometimes I have noticed them selling fruits or veggies that aren’t in season, claiming to be locally grown. The other week I asked them where they sourced their honey and they gave me a vague answer. I also saw one person at a table next to their truck literally pouring blueberries from what looked like a grocery store plastic container into their display cups.

Does anybody know anything about them or whether or not they are legit? Are they really working with local growers or are they just repackaging?

Schools and Transferring

We are looking into buying a house in Carrollton where we have been renting for a while. From everything I’ve seen, Hebron and Creekview are the best schools in the area, with Hebron having the best ratings on GreatSchools (I’m aware of the biases built in) and both having good grades from the state.

In the event that our eventual house is zoned to another school, how easy is it to transfer into the feeders for either of these schools? The district I grew up in does not do open transfers so I have no idea how the process works or if there’s any selection criteria.

How safe is the DART green line?

Hi I am a 28F who just moved to Carrollton (I’m liking it so far!) I read bout the dart being a good idea for those looking to goto Dallas for fun.

I got an invite to Deep Ellum this weekend (I’ve lived in Dallas before, I already know about this area)

I’m trying to gauge how safe would it be for me to take the dart alone there and back?

I’ve lived in Chicago before so I know that some lines can be safer than others. What’s your opinion? Maybe take the dart there and uber back?

2 sweet kittens for rehoming

URGENT URGENT. Please help!!

2 kittens for rehoming. Must go together. I've been calling rescues about these babies for about a month. Everyone is beyond full.

They were born with me, I have their parents. They are siblings. These are my personal cats and this absolutely breaks my heart.

  1. Spooky- the oldest. Grey domestic short hair. 1 year and 6 months. Unspayed

Spooky is a sweet little girl. She's a bit timid, she's one of those cats who needs a cool down time after a play session. But she is active and plays with my other cats just fine. Shes sweet once she warms up to you. She will lay with you and just chill. Her father is my esa cat and her mother is the calmest cat under 3 years old I've ever seen. She is INDOOR ONLY. No young kids, she would have a hard time with dogs but it could be done with older dogs. I'd prefer her to go to someone who will work with her to gain her trust.

​

  1. Patches- torti domestic shorthair. 1 year and 4 months. Spooky's younger sister. Unspayed.

A lot more outgoing than her sister. Very affectionate. Very playful. Very like her mama in personality. Loves hair ties. She will come up and chill with you once shes comfortable. Again, indoor only. Same house requirements as Spooky as they are going together.

They both come when called to their name when they're comfortable in their surroundings.

​

These girlies talk! They will hold conversations with you! They love hair ties. They both enjoy a ball track toy and scratching posts as well as standard little balls and crinkle balls. They do like and snuggle on cat beds. These 2 get along perfectly. These girlies go mad for their reflections. They scratch their paws (claws in) on screens, mirrors, reflective surfaces. Mount your tvs with these 2. If you want a bit of fun put a broken screen tv where they can get to it. I have one that can go with them.

They must go together I will not separate. They have one very minor health issue that is easily treatable by a vet, cheap! I have 6 cats right now and my life fell apart. I'm now on a single income. I can't do 6 cats on a single income. That's my reason for rehoming. They are up to date on flea and tick meds (did that last night).

​

If you comment on the post your favorite breed of cat I will reach out to you via dm. I will be screening potential adopters. I've been calling and emailing everyone within a 2 hour radius for a month. Everyone is full. You can also dm me.

Please no hate, no judgement. I'm just a cat mom trying to do right by her cats and trying to make sure they land in the right home for them.

Thank you for reading

Anyone have any experiences living here? Trying to move somewhere that's relatively new while being in the center of plano/lewisville/addison/carrollton. Seems like a good choice for a 2B2B at around 2k-2.2k all in.

Any help is appreciated :)))
