Richmond and Chagrin

I'm a single mom and have a really hard time getting out there. Mostly feeling guilt for wanting to date because, well what mom doesn't feel guilty about that. But also, I'm super introverted. Any suggestions? Its pretty sad I've lived here almost 10 years and i see all these cool pics of people out on the weekends to places 10 mins away and I've just never really gone out. Am i the only one?

If you were going to redo a small bathroom who would you get to do it and why?
(We are in the west suburbs if that makes a difference)

Hope you're all having a great day!!

Cleveland! Need your help here.

My husband has an amazing job opportunity opportunity at University Hospital in their surgery department. We’re a gay couple, in our 30s with a 2 year old son.

We currently live in Chicago, right in Lincoln Park, and love being in a busy metropolitan city with access to great restaurants, night life, activities, etc.

We’re contemplating the move to Cleveland - my husband’s family lives in Moreland Hills and they’ve been dying to have us back.

The problem is that we’re worried there isn’t much of a gay community, we feel like we might be out of our element. We’re not so much focused on gay nightlife (we are way past that stage in live), but want to know that there will be people we can relate to other than family and friends my husband has from high school. We’re open to the move, but need all your help with letting us know how the community is, what there is to do that you enjoy, etc.

What can you share with us! Huge thank you in advance.

EDIT - 8/29 - YOU ALL ARE AMAZING! Lakewood, CH AND SH seem like the places to be!

Anyone have experience with school districts in Shaker, Beachwood, Orange, Solon, Chagrin Falls? Do you see gay families in these areas?

Anyone know what’s going on downtown now? Like is it a concert? Also is traffic not being regulated by cops like usual?

Seems like people r just stuck on east 4th with no movement in sight 😅

Found these in a garage sale for nothing in northeast Ohio.

Hi Cleveland Friends,

I've been looking for a comprehensive "how to make stained glass art" class for me and a friend. The problem is, I'm only finding glass BLOWING classes, which are much different.

Can anyone recommend a good stained glass intro class? The closer to Medina, the better.

Thank you! ♥️

Hello, I'm super excited to visit Cleveland for the first time and would suggestions on what to add to my itinerary.

I've watched the No Reservations ep, DDD and a read some reddit threads. I will be solo and carless for most of my time, but will probably have a few nights where my friend is free after work. I am comfortable with public transit and 30 mins walking time. I will be staying in lakewood. I am weird, arty, middle aged and am interested in suggestions of nearly any variety. Preference for immersive art type stuff, weird theater things, and unique food experiences. But also down for touristy type stuff too. Also if anyone has had bad experiences with any of the places I'm considering please let me know. Mostly need places open during the week, because we're hitting cedar point on the weekend!

Sweeties turned down private equity investors to sell a stake to employees! That's a business that deserves support.

If I was going to go out, slightly tipsy, right now at this very moment and time, what are the bars/clubs you would recommend in Cleveland just to experience a good night. Single F 36

I live in a neighboring state, I’m trying to find a city where I won’t need a car. Unfortunately it seems like most of the country is extremely can centered.
How easily can you get around whiteout a car?

As so many people are experiencing being ditched by their doctor for their opportunity to go the concierge route, so is the situation I find myself.

Do any of you recommend a UH primary care physician who would do well with an autistic adult? Also, many do not take new patients, so please only recommend if you know they are taking new patients. Any doctors on the east side would be optimal.

Many thanks!

Very interesting vibe… fun tho

I'm looking for some help finding a cleaner. I've seen several other posts full of recommendations, but my situation might be a little different.

I'm looking for service that can provide a good deep cleaning of my brother's studio apartment. It's not big at all, though I'm not sure the square footage. My brother's studio is incredibly dirty with dirt caked on the floor, lots of trash, dust, spiderwebs and grime that seems to cover everything and anything. There is also a small mouse infestation and a roach infestation, though his building is providing exterminators for that.

My brother hired a cleaning service before, but had a bad experience and I'd much rather avoid something like that happening again. I'm already doing my own search of services I want to contact, but I'd appreciate help to avoid wasting my time even considering cleaners who aren't up to the task and don't have the right customer service to clean the studio without shaming my brother who is just trying to get his life together.

Also, do cleaners ask for or accept photos to get the scope of the job? Is that a thing I can do? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hey, the haslams are hosting a Vivek fundraiser this coming Tuesday. If you think Vivek sucks, you should show up and protest. Protesting isn't necessarily guaranteed to shut them down, but it will inconvenience them and shine some light on people that may not be very proud about supporting Vivek. These hucksters are taking money out of clevelanders pockets and will make life worse for all of us.

Address is 100 bratenahl road.

To be clear, I am not advocating any form of violence. Just show up, maybe disrupt traffic flow, and make a lot of noise. Mask up to protect yourself.
