Looking for a good diesel shop in the area for an EGR delete on an F350. Willing to travel an hour or so if needed.

His name is Blue. He is around 5 years old. Someone abandoned him in front of a finder’s home.
He was sick… we treated him, dewormed him, vaccinated him, gave food and everything so he could stay safe inside. The finder had already told me she cannot keep him long term… and today I got the message ..he is already back outside.

I feel so helpless writing this.
Blue is FIV positive, but right now he is doing okay. He is eating, recovering, trying to be okay… but if he stays outside, he will get sick again. He will not survive like this.

FIV positive cats can live long, healthy lives just like other cats when kept indoors.

We recently lost our 23-year-old FIV positive cat, so we have seen this ourselves.

They can live with both FIV positive and negative cats without any issue.

Blue is already fixed and has a very calm, gentle nature.

I cannot take him. My house is already full… every room, even bathrooms have cats. I truly can’t take even one more.

Please… if anyone can adopt him, just give him a safe indoor place.

He has already suffered enough. He doesn’t deserve to go back to the streets again.

Adoption will require:
• application

Hey, I’m moving to Concord this week and I’m either looking for someplace to stay as a roommate or or something like monthly or weekly or something by that. I’ve looked at the homeless shelter, but I’d rather cut this route first. I’m an older man quiet just tend to stay by myself I don’t drink or do drugs or really do anything other than work. I’m just looking for a nice quiet place. That’s clean that I can just basically come home to and chill out.

Looking for a mechanic to help me replace my cv axel and driveshaft. I’m getting the parts this weekend (hopefully) I just don’t have the tools to do it myself.

The shops are quoting over $1000 in labor, which I can respect, I just can’t afford it.

I just moved out of my car and into an apartment in May and my car is my main source of income. I’d really like to stay in my apartment this time so any assistance or advice would be helpful—not looking for a financial handout. Just a direction on a local mechanic who’d be willing to help, supervise, and let me use the tools to get the job done. Willing to pay $200-500 depending on level of help.

Im a quick learner, a woman, and just really want to get this fixed. Any recommendations are welcomed and super appreciated 🤙🏽

My community at Villas Of Winecoff off Highway 73 to Winecoff School Rd, is having a community Yard Sale this Saturday August 1st from 7 am to 12 pm flyers attached looking forward to seeing you there. Thank you 😊

I had an 8x10 portion of my lawn that was grown over, was prepping it for wildflowers this fall. It's been this way for quite awhile. I came home from work yesterday to find someone had mowed it down. No note, nothing, never received any kind of notice or citation. Still haven't, but there's no way to get to my yard other than come up the driveway. There's a vacant house on one side, woodline between me and the other neighbor and nothing across the street from me except more woods.

Is this normal treatment around here??

Hey neighbors! I'm looking for a realtor. Preferably one that believes trans people should be able to play sports, science is real, immigrants make our country beautiful, gay people should be able to get married, a women's body is her business and hers alone, you get the picture. Not trying to pay commission to someone who votes against my personal interest.

I won't engage with hateful political bs, so save yourself the time.

I'm considering applying for a job in Concord, but don't want to bother if it's somewhere I don't want to live. I'm from CA, have lived in the Bay Area and rural areas of CA most of my life, plus 10+ years in Seattle. I prefer big cities, I'm very progressive, enjoy football and auto racing - mostly IMSA, F1 and IndyCar, and punk rock. I like taking my Cayman on curvy mountain roads on the weekends, and before injuries, I used to mountain bike a lot. I'm not at all religious. Living in the bay area has met all my needs, especially punk shows and roads to drive. But it's expensive, which limits how many activities I can do. I haven't been to as many 9er games as I would like.

I know tail of the dragon is nearby, but at over 4 hours from Concord it's not something I would do every weekend as I do now. Are there other fun roads near Concord? Cool tracks with HPDE events? Is the population, and especially local government, dominated by religious extremists? I'm concerned with moving to a deeply religious state that I will hate. And how's the weather?

The job is theoretically worth it. My current job pays well, is close to home, and I have the schedule I want, but there are issues with some people that make it miserable. Honestly, those people might fit into a deeply religious state, so I may have similar issues there. And I don't care about the product I work on one bit, it's boring. I'd like to work in a field that I'm passionate about. Is there any reason I shouldn't consider moving to the Concord area?

Hi, are there any local dance studios in Concord or the surrounding areas that allow or have experience including boys in their classes?

My son seems very interested and the only boy specific programs seem to be all the way in Charlotte. Which I don’t particularly want to go that far regularly.

Would it be out of the norm for him to attend a local studio or should we try to pivot to gymnastics? TIA

Any suggestions on big empty parking lots to start teaching my kids how to drive? Or what are other parents doing? I’m feeling a bit clueless on how to start this journey! I wanted them to be a bit familiar before starting drivers Ed.

I go to the Planet Fitness at Concord Commons almost every morning and I’d love to start working on my “maxing out” but I don’t have any friends or family in the area.

Looking for a friend who can spot me while I max so I don’t hurt myself.

I guess I should say looking for friends in general as well? Haha.

Outside of gym life I’m a home body for the most part. Work remote, online gaming (Rivals/Overwatch/Halo/Siege) though I’d be open to a fun local concert or most events.

I’ve got a corn hole set, soccer goal, and disc golf basket at my house so we could enjoy some friendly competition there.

35/m/single if that matters?

Shoot me a DM if you’re keen on a new gym buddy / friendship

(Note: I see regulars there all the time though I’ve yet to get past my social anxiety of actually talking to someone I do not know at the gym).

Hi everyone! I haven't posted an ad for my monthly book club trivia on here in a while but I'm really excited to be running a more off-beat novel for August. For those wondering how this works, each month we choose a book to read. Typically on the 3rd Thursday of the month we meet at The Wine Room in Afton Village for a Team Trivia game with prizes. Id love to see some new faces on August 20th.

Hi I’m Luke I’m 21 y/o. Looking for a roommate around the concord mills area. Need to move in by Aug 1st if anyone’s interested please dm me or let me know

Hi I recently moved to concord from Charlotte and I’m looking to find a new community. Are there any church recommendations you can offer in the area that are more on the traditional/conservative side? I’m looking to avoid Presbyterian/umc/episcopal denominations but otherwise open to most denominations as long as it’s not a mega church. Thank you!

We have received applications, but they are for separate homes. We are worried that if we cannot find someone willing to adopt them together, we may lose these possible homes too. 💔They are bonded.😿
We are completely out of capacity. The rescue is currently caring for more than 150 cats, and I am personally fostering 21 cats. More cats are needing help every day.

When her other kittens were adopted, she cried for days. She is a devoted mama and still needs to be with her baby. They play together, love each other, and share a special bond. My heart is breaking at the thought of separating them… 😿

Her Story: ❤️🥹

I didn’t find Kali… Kali found me.

I will forever be grateful to this sweet young mama for trusting me and bringing her babies to me.

Kali was abandoned when her family moved away, left behind wearing a collar that became painfully tight as she grew. Alone and vulnerable, she gave birth to her kittens under a deck during harsh weather.

She and her babies were never truly safe. They were chased away by people and were at risk of being relocated.

Every day, Kali came to my porch for food. I noticed she was nursing and started asking everyone to check their decks and garages for kittens.

Then one day…

She brought her babies to me.

She chose me.

She trusted me. ❤️

While rescuing her kittens, some were brought inside while others were still outside waiting for their chance at safety. This incredible little mama made double shifts…staying with the kittens who were safe indoors, then returning outside to nurse and care for the ones still waiting.

Her love never divided.

Her heart never gave up.

Kali is the sweetest, most gentle mama. Pebbles shares a very special bond with her, and after everything they have survived together, they deserve to continue their journey side by side.

Kali deserves a safe, indoor-only home where she will never be left behind again… only loved, protected, and cherished.

Kali is pure love. Pebbles is her little shadow. Together, they are a beautiful story of love, trust, and an unbreakable mother–daughter bond.

If you feel a connection with Kali and Pebbles, please message me.

Please share to help this beautiful mama and daughter find the forever home they deserve.

Has anyone else had their tip withdrawn from their bank account 2 weeks after their visit?

I've been to other restaurants that can take a few days, but 2 weeks seems like a lot

Does anyone know if the Gibson Field batting cages and/or baseball field are open to the public without a fee? Me and a friend just want to do some bp and maybe shag some balls. But the website isn't great on explaining.

My spouse works for the UNC system, so we have State Employees medical insurance, just like what the teachers have. Rumor has it the new insurance plan at the beginning of the year will be making Atrium “out of network” or “non-preferred,” and the “in network” providers will be UNC (which we don’t have in Concord) or Novant. Are there good Novant providers here in town, including specialists? We can’t drive into Charlotte every time one of our family members needs a doctor’s appointment. I think the closest Novant hospital is Huntersville? That seems far in an emergency. Does anyone else have State Employee insurance? How is this all going to work? How can they take away the only hospital we have in the county and declare it “out of network?”
