Where to buy flowers?

If I lived near Trader Joe’s, I’d buy them there. Where to buy flowers in Rio Rancho? Best supermarket selection?

Does NW ABQ have any good spots?

Rep. Hernandez taking money from AI camera company

Turns out that Joshua Hernandez, one of our NM state house representatives, is taking money for his campaign from a company supplying AI smart cameras and license plate reading cameras to the Rio Rancho city government. Says he supports "police technology".

This AI surveillance goes against our 4th and 5th Amendment rights in the Constitution 📜. The government shouldn't be tracking everywhere we drive, and putting HD videos of drivers' faces into AI algorithms! Not getting my vote snake! 🐍

I'm going to volunteer for his opponent Luke Jungmann. I'd urge you all to sign up too. Protecting our civil liberties is the most important thing we could do for the 250th Independence Day 🇺🇸! He's having a volunteer meetup at Western Winds Park on Sunday at 12:00pm, if you want to go meet him.

Ezee Fiber Installers Will Do Some Severe Damage

YOU MUST WATCH THE EZEE FIBER INSTALLERS VERY CLOSELY EVERY MINUTE BECAUSE THEY WILL DO A BAD JOB THAT COSTS YOU A LOT OF MONEY.

Ezee Fiber cable installers chopped my irrigation system wire and never said anything. A week later I have a yard full of very expense and very dead plants.

How can anyone be so irresponsible or so stupid to think their mistake would not be discovered.

Ezee Fiber does not hire honest competent people, they do not train them in good work procedures, and they do not supervise their employees' work.

The photo shows my chopped irrigation cable. Ezee Fiber buried it after they chopped it. This chopped cable could have easily been repaired when they chopped it... and no other losses would have occurred. They buried it without saying anything and I discovered my irrigation system was not working when my plants died.

Anyone been a pop-up vendor at Cottonwood mall?

How were sales/foot traffic? I'm signed up to be a cookie vendor there in mid July so I'm trying to get an idea of how much product to make (I'm completely new to vending!). I already asked the sponsor but was just told that it varies (no numbers given).

Thank you in advance for the help!!

ISO Personal Trainer

Hello,
I am female turning 31 this year. I am just looking to get started with my gym journey! I want to gain some weight get toned (some booty) and just to stay healthy overall. I’m looking to find a good personal trainer that will show me how to work out and help with what to eat and just keep me motivated and stay disciplined with this, but that is also not going to break the bank. I have a membership at chuze through my job for a long time now but I don’t go cuz I don’t know what I’m doing! If you know anyone or any place in Rio Rancho that you recommend please let me know! Thank you in advance!

Presbyterian Senior HMO plan being discontinued

Hi all

I am seeking advice but may not use the right words or verbiage as it’s new territory for me

My elderly grandparents will be affected by the discontinuation of Presbyterian Senior HMO plan and will need to switch in open enrollment.

I am a granddaughter in the PNW trying to assist the best I can

Can anyone recommend what plans to research?

My grandpa gets around but I would really prefer to find a way for assistance with errands and driving around. I don’t know what stage dementia my grandma has but I know it’s tough on him to take care of her. His pride gets in the way of asking for help so my plan is to tell him he will be receiving help by xyz after my research.

Outside of insurance (they have Medicaid btw) I am interested in researching any and all way that could help them in New Mexico. Maybe something I wouldn’t know of (like meals on wheels as an example) from a local?

Thank you for reading

Booking and appearance partner wanted

Hi everyone, my name is Kyle. I’m local to the Albuquerque / Rio Rancho area, and I’m looking for one reliable person to help with Blitz, my local community mascot project.

Blitz is a custom-made mascot costume that I’ve been turning into a real appearance business. I’ve started bringing him out to local events, festivals, charities, and sports events, and now I want to grow that into more regular booked appearances.

I also have real mascot experience, including working as Orbit with the Albuquerque Isotopes, so I’m taking this seriously. I’m good at the mascot performance and creative side, but I’m not the best at reaching out, talking with organizers, and setting up bookings. That is the main part I need help with.

The role would include helping find leads, messaging organizers, booking appearances, setting up details, taking photos and video, and assisting at events while i’m in costume as Blitz.

This is project-based and commission-based, not a full-time job. If you book an appearance, you earn 30% commission. If you also help at the appearance you booked, you earn 50%. If the same client books Blitz again later, you keep earning from that client. Similar mascot and character appearances around Albuquerque are often listed around $75–$150 per hour or per event, so there is room for this to grow if Blitz gets booked more often.

I’m looking for someone who is outgoing, reliable, flexible, professional, and good with people. This could be a good fit for someone interested in events, marketing, sales, photography, sports, or community work.

Must be 18+. Message me if you’re interested or know someone who might be a good fit. Thank you!

suggestions for activities for senior citizens?

Looking for programs and activities for my senior citizen parents in their mid 70s they’re both retired and don’t have enough to do and don’t have much money. 1 is mostly bedridden. I no longer live in the area and it is very hard for me to care for them remotely. I can contribute as much time and finances as I can. But I still need more things to enrich their day-to-day lives. Appreciate any suggestions thank you so much.

Did We Lose Power This Weekend?

Pour one out for me fellas, times have been hard recently, and they just got a whole lot tougher...

Saturday morning we left for a trip down to carlsbad, we came back last night around 10ish. Upon opening our deep freezer this morning, we lost all of our frozen food...

Did something happen the past couple of days? Did we lose power or something? Or was this just the best example of "when it rains it pours possible"?

Trumpet vine removal companies?

I'm cursing the previous owners for planting these things. After several years of trying to keep them under control, it's clear we can't keep up (one of us is disabled) and we're just looking to get rid of them and/or kill them (if that's even possible). We've looked at a few options but aren't clear if this falls under weed removal vs tree removal, so hoping someone out there with experience on this can point us to someone they recommend, or even better, have used specifically for this. Thanks in advance.
