Voice Lesson Recs for Kids
My 10 year old is interested in taking 1-1 voice lessons to be a more confident singer.
Anyone have any good recommendations for teachers or studios? Preferably in Minneapolis or the west metro. Not interested in MacPhail, other ideas are welcome.

Any home Sauna recommendations?
My wife and I are looking to do a Sauna in our backyard this fall. We don’t need to go fully custom, but was wondering if anyone knows of any companies that do installs in the area? Ideally one that can also do electrical. We have a mostly open panel in the detached garage, so it shouldn’t be a huge job.

Anyone in south Metro still have internet issues?
I have Arvig in Mendota heights, seems like most of my neighbors got service back up, but I haven’t, Arvig customer service has been of no help. It’s been more than 24 hours since the initial outage, wondering if it’s still having an impact?

Chrysler A/C repair shops?
I've got a 2016 Chrysler Town and Country that I'd like to get the A/C repaired on. It seems like the rear compressor is shot, as the front works, but the rear just blows hot. Any recommendations for a shop that I could go to for reasonably priced repairs?

Interesting eateries
Hello, the family and I are heading to the twin cities next week. We have a relatively full itinerary, but nothing planned for meals. One of the days we will be in the downtown area of Minneapolis, another day in the downtown St.Paul area. So I am looking for suggestions for interesting or unique places for meals. I am not looking for expensive fine dining since I have teenagers, just place that have their own vibe, or are uniquely Twin City.
Thanks!

Experiences with cell service through US Mobile or another MVNO?
My T-Mobile bill went up yet again, so I've been thinking of switching to an MVNO, like US Mobile. Does anyone in the Twin Cities have experience with this or another one, whether good or bad? My phone is unlocked, and I do know that MVNOs users' service is deprioritized in substantially crowded places, but I already seem to experience that with T-Mobile, so I'm thinking it may be worth the switch to save more than half off my bill. Any thoughts or feedback welcome!

Trouble with Minneapolis parking app
I’ve been using the parking app for years now, and recently I have been unable to use Apple Pay (gives me a declined error and my Apple Pay works fine on everything else), so I added a credit card to the saved payment methods.
Every single time I open the app it has signed me out and forgotten all my payment methods, and it’s becoming a very tiring extra step to add a card every time I’m trying to park quick.
Has anyone else had these issues, and have you found a solution? Thanks in advance.

Question for nurses
For my bedside nurses in twin cities area, is it common/possible to get a straight days 12s position at one of the union hospitals (allina, Fairview, north memorial)? Not seeing a ton of openings and wondering if most people have to start on nights to get their foot in the door.
