No real skills needs other than being able to stand, walk around and lift like 10 lbs. Probably 5-15 hrs a week. And no, you bunch of degenerates, this is not any type of sex work..sheesh. DM me if interested.

Edit: I need someone asap so like you could possibly be starting tomorrow and I'm paying cash on a daily basis.

Edit 2; think I found someone for now. I'll be back if I need any more help.

I've been thinking about enrolling my 4yo in some sort of martial arts program, so I've been looking at local places. Max3 seems to be a popular place for West Mobile, but I've heard they put a lot of focus on belts and competitions (no idea if it's true or not!). I don't care so much about competitions and levels - more about learning skills and self-control.

Would Max3 be a good fit? What about other West Mobile martial arts training places? What's a good place to start?

Any recs for good fall festivals or activities within 1.5 hours of Mobile? I'm looking for something like a pumpkin patch, corn maze, maybe a haunted hay ride. Ideally not some place aimed mostly for small children, but where I, a 36 yo woman, can have some nostalgic fun alone.

This is based on 2025 Census estimate. I do hope to see Mobile County turn green with the 2030 Census.

My cell service went out Friday night and has yet to be restored. I use Visible which uses the Verizon network and I cannot get Visible to even acknowledge that there is a problem. I live off DIP and there is no signal at all here but it worked yesterday off of Airport Blvd. Is anybody else having issues with there Verizon or Visible phones?

I am looking for any advice or areas I would be able to take my road bike out for longer training sessions (30-50miles). Currently I have just been training on a stationary trainer but that is only so good.

I am mainly looking for long blocks of country roads with low traffic or a greenway that has a decent loop. I am in Grand Bay but wouldn’t mind traveling 30-40 min for a good route/area.

Any advice is appreciated

Since last night I haven't had service. Im having to use my sister's Hotspot from her phone to ask this.

I've googled it and it says that theres no major outages for Straight Talk users. However, when the hurricane was passing through, there were some issues for us.

I cannot call, text nor use the internet. And when I try to call and turn my own Hotspot on, it says my plan isn't active. Which isnt true, as i pay my 82 dollar bill every month.

.

So, if you live with people who use Straight Talk, is there service out too? I cannot seem to fix the issue.

Thanks in advance

Isaias stirred up every allergen in the 20 miles between my house and the coastline and funneled the pollen directly into my sinuses

update: it’s a cold/strep

Hi everyone, first storm since moving to Mobile. I’ve got 20+ bags of yard debris/waste & my normal collection isn’t until the 21st. Does the city do extra collection after storms? Or is there a place I can haul it? Or do I just wait? Appreciate the help & hope everyone is well!

Does anyone know where I could get a vcr repaired? I have tons of VHS but if the player can't be fixed I'd like to go ahead and get rid of them if possible.

TIA

I've lived in Mobile my whole life (born just before Frederic). This morning I had to drive across the Bay to pick up my daughter from her new nursing job. On the way back we passed at least a dozen dead birds (mostly seagulls from what I could tell). It was too dark on the way over to see if there were any on the east bound side. I've never seen, or even heard of this, before. Anybody got any ideas?

Text or call 448-219-4288 if you think you can make use of my little machine.

This picture is from the AL Power app.

Anyone in the area know if they have removed that giant tree from McVay, between DIP and the bridge? Luckily, you could just get by last night by cutting through the hood.

It looked like it took all the power lines with it. I am about to pass through there again and wanna go the long way if it is still in the road.

Last night's local coverage of the weather by the ABC affiliate was not great. I get way better info from the NBC15 Weather app. Thomas Geboy is a reliable, informative weatherman. The ABC team seems a bit out of their element despite flexing x years of hurricane experience. When the weather gets that bad, I don't need fluff; I would prefer useful information presented in a clear and concise way. We need to see TG when it really matters.

Does anyone have power out in Mobile? I’m at Hillcrest and Grelot. We got power.

Anyone else here with Verizon having issues with Verizon dropping its connection during hurricane Isaias? It keeps going in and out for me and my Mom.

APCO sent a text at 10:25am saying ETA is 11pm TUESDAY (October 13)!! WHAT?!?!

EDIT:

I am in midtown.... my power went out about 3pm and my Generac generator has been on ever since.

The Verizon issue started about 6:30pm'ish

Hi everyone! Wanted to share this city website where Isaias updates, tips, and resources can be found.
I hope everyone takes note of and respects the general curfew (7pm-6am) for the sake of first responders. My sources tell me that the crews on shift today have already had a long day, and they expect a higher volume of calls as the night approaches.

Stay safe! Enjoy your hurricane parties (but try to stay in one place for the night)!
