Hit 10,000 steps in Rocky River Reservation last Saturday without even trying.

I was just walking my dog like usual and suddenly my watch buzzed to congratulate me. Anyone else accidentally hit fitness milestones while doing normal stuff around here?

PSA: I hit 50,000 miles on my car and everyone told me to trade it in - I'm keeping it

I just rolled past 50,000 miles on my 2019 Honda Civic last week and every person I mention it to acts like the thing is about to fall apart. My buddy at work keeps telling me I'm crazy for not trading it in while it still has value. But here's the thing - I've done nothing but oil changes and one set of tires on this car. It runs perfect, gets me from Lakewood to my delivery routes all over the west side without a hiccup. Meanwhile the same people telling me to trade it are the ones with $500 car payments and check engine lights. I get that 50k is a milestone but it's not like the wheels are gonna fall off at 60k. Am I wrong for thinking modern cars can go way past 100k easy or is everyone just hooked on that new car smell?

My dishwasher flooded the kitchen after a cheap seal gave out

My neighbor said I'd regret not sealing the driveway myself

Paid $200 for a 'premium' garage parking spot near W. 25th and it was a disaster

Neighbor told me I was overwatering my lawn and she was right

Warning: That whole foods hot bar keeps raising prices with less selection

Talked to a city worker about the leaf pickup schedule, had no idea how it really works

Overheard a dude at the Coffee House on Clifton talking about street parking

West Side Market bread vs grocery store bread. No comparison.

Paid $80 for that 'premium' lawn care subscription and my yard looks worse

I was dead wrong about that taco place on Lorain

My neighbor in Lakewood said we should stop complaining about the new apartment building

Vent: My neighbor made me realize I've been wasting money on lawn care for years

The Lakewood park bathroom key situation got me good last weekend

My brother told me to skip the Gordon Square Arts Festival this year, and I'm glad I listened.
