Fall lettuce
Novice gardener here. I’ve never done any fall plantings but would love to have Bibb and red sails during the fall. Can I find starter plants anywhere locally? I haven’t looked yet so figured I would save myself some trips and ask here. Thx in advance!

IGU window repair needed
I have a broken window - it's in one of the townhouses and is apparently an IGU - one of the glass windows is broken. I am told that I need to find someone who will measure and replace the IGU in the existing sash. Does anyone have any recommendations - who would you reccomend?

Plaza family care
I am kind of surprised that there is no discussion about this on here. Plaza, seemingly out of nowhere (at least to me).decided to close down their 53 year old practice. 2 of my children were just there for their annuals in June and another one of my children was set to have her annual next month. Has anyone had any luck obtaining their medical records from them? I have not secured a new primary for them yet (I literally learned of this 2 days ago). I havent heard good things about Somerset Pediatrics (where the letter suggests).

Verizon Landlines
I got a letter from Verizon today that they are getting rid of landlines. Now I'm upset. I get NO cell service of any kind at my house. Dead zone. My landline is my contact with the outside world. When the power goes off, which is way too often around here, my phone always works. I have an I Phone, it is connected to my WiFi, but again, my WiFi doesn't work when the power goes off. I'm 77 and not in the best of health. What am I supposed to do?

Power Outage
Panther Valley Outage. Is there a way to find out? It is not listed anywhere and IDK if they have a text system or something for emergencies. Thanks.

Antifreeze/ coolant disposal
Hello.
Where can I take antifreeze for proper disposal?
The warren county landfill takes it but not until next May.
Any local shops?
It cannot go with the used oil.
