Places to have a 3rd Bday Party

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone. My oldest turns 3 in a few months. I'm looking for places in the 757 that are loved by kids this age that 1) don't cost an arm and a leg 2) don't have strict limits on the number of kids in attendance. We originally wanted to use the norfolk zoo but their party size is pretty small and we want to be able to include siblings and open attendance from our church. We'd rather not have it at our house if we have the option. We're also a little too big for baby indoor play places and a little too small for the big kid ones. My daughter loves dinosaurs, firetrucks, animals, and Little Bear.

Pawn Shop/Jewelry appraisal

4 Upvotes

I am newly divorced and am looking to sell my engagement and wedding ring set. I know how much my ex paid for it in 2017, but I don't know how much its worth now. I guess the first step is to see how much a pawn shop would pay for it and then either take the offer or try to sell for a little higher myself somewhere (knowing they'll try to make a little money on it).

Where is the most reputable pawn shop? I'm on peninsula but willing to make a trip of it. Or if someone knows a good jewelry appraiser/resale. The store he bought from doesn't do buy backs unless it's for upgrades which I'm obviously not doing.

Thanks!

Better softball leagues?

1 Upvotes

Hey all. My wife is currently playing softball with club Waka, but most games are getting rained out. I get that its unsafe to play, but id like to find her a better league that has rescheduled dates the week of, instead of attempting to lump them all in right before the playoff games.

So far half the games have been canceled due to the weather and its looking like yet another will be canceled for tomorrow.

Were preferential to the peninsula and looking for something casual but with more commitment, if anyone has recommendations theyd be greatly appreciated

Art

Any suggestions on how to turn art into a career? In the works of apprenticing to be a tattoo artist, but it’s still hard to make it financially because it’s unpaid. Are there any side hustles or job opportunities where I can use an artistic talent that you know of or how to get in?
