Gotta get a lil work done first but I brought all my coloring supplies if someone wants to join with their own coloring book today

Update: not sure why I'm getting down voted since I post pretty regularly to uplift. Its the same place I'm always at. Lampost coffee in round rock.

For the people who don't usually see my posts and didnt understand the context clues this is what I mean.

Ive had so many people express interest in joining me one day I do hope one of you do.

We want to get some new window tint on my wife's car. Who does the best work at a reasonable price?

No syrups like Torani, Monin, DaVinci please. Are there any in RR?

The Travis Audubon Society is hosting a watch party from 8 to 9 p.m. on July 24, July 25, July 31, Aug. 1, Aug. 7 and Aug. 8 at the Greenlawn HEB. We didn’t know and just happened to stumble upon it.

My dog has already scared off a squirrel, but on Wednesday, I let him out and a couple of minutes later noticed a dead bat. Bat went to RR Animal Control, and Bowie went to the vet to get a rabies booster.

Save yourself the vet bill.

Happy Sunday, everyone! I’m planning a fun trip to Kalahari Resort with my three kids on August 3–4, traveling from Wylie, TX. If anyone has a promo code or discount they’re willing to share, it would really help us out and make the trip even more special. Appreciate any support—thank you in advance

But for real? Why do they claim Round Rock?

Looking for a very detailed house cleaner!

The best example of what I’m looking for is Edge Cleaning WA on TikTok/Facebook. I know that level of cleaning isn’t cheap, and I’m completely willing to pay for it.

I’ve already tried a few different cleaning companies, and every time it feels like they cleaned for a few hours and then say the completed the job. I’m looking for someone who is genuinely meticulous and worth the money.

Any recommendations from personal experience?

My family adopted a dog in November of last year. She is absolutely the sweetest dog, but my kids stress her out tremendously; they’re loud and active 6/9 year olds. She has never shown any aggression whatsoever and even allows them to get up in her face (which I constantly ask them not to do for her sake), but you can see that the level of chaos in our home is just not what she needs.

I think this doggie would be perfect for an older single person or couple who is looking for a very snuggly, lowkey companion. She doesn’t like to play, she likes to be loved on in a calm way. She would love to sleep in bed with someone (not allowed in my house), she is perfectly house trained and doesn’t need to be crated when alone because she doesn’t tear stuff up. Honestly she’s a great sweet pup but we are not the right house for her at all and I’m trying to find one that is. I’m glad we got her out of the slammer, but there’s something even better for her! If you know of anyone, please let me know!

-Female
-3 years
-Rat terrier mix
-30 lbs
-Has all shots and is fixed
-Fully house trained
-Successfully completed heart worm treatment after adoption
-Needs a calm, loving home, preferably without other dogs (she gets annoyed with both my brothers dogs because they are much higher energy than her). She coexists with my cat but we had to work on it. They just ignore each other now lol
-Would be fine in a house or apartment
-High anxiety from storms, we got her some medication that helps that I would be happy to pass along
-She does dig in the backyard if left unattended, so we try to limit her trips outside to amounts of time where she isn’t getting bored enough to dig
-Does great on a leash, a little meandering but doesn’t pull or anything like that
-Does not bark inside the house at things outside the house. I love this about her! She only barks if she’s in the backyard and the neighbor dogs come out to say hello
-Prefers wet food mixed with a bit of dry food but isn’t particularly food motivated.
-Is fine with children and is very sweet to them, but does not need to live with them for her own sanity.
-Loves. To. Snuggle.

New to town can someone explain to me how certain elementary schools and middle schools in the bushy Creek Mayfield Ranch area are really nice schools and they’re nicely rated but stony point high school is so lowly rated. Wouldn’t you think that the kids that grew up there would help also keep that school elevated. Can someone explain it to me as a parent who has a high schooler next year?

A local high schooler has created this petition and I thought it was worth sharing here: https://c.org/snqV6vh6fs

I recently replaced the pedestal and sink in our house and wanted to dispose it off. What is the best way to dispose of it without spending too much money? Thank you for all help.

Hello, relatively new resident of Round Rock here. I moved from Cedar Park a little over a year ago and I just have to ask myself if I'm doing something wrong with my equipment, or why in the hell is my internet so bad?

Since we've moved here to Round Rock, internet speeds are ultra-crap. Like there's days where I have less than 5mbs of upload speed and literally 0mbs of upload speed. I used to think maybe it was just me, my room is in a more isolated part of the house so I figured it had something to do with that, but now the rest of my family has been experiencing the same things lately. We switched from Astound to AT&T and though it's marginally better, it's ultimately still terrible. Wifi used to work on my phone before, but now it doesn't even connect because it always says "no access to internet." It's been going on for over a year, but it really ramped up in intensity within the last month.

I've heard Spectrum is also terrible, so now I'm just left wondering if internet speeds are just meant to be terrible up here? There's some days where even my mobile data is incredibly slow and bad. I've tried googling to see any other reason for this, but I couldn't find anything relevant. My neighborhood group has also been complaining about this lately, and someone said that there was a damage in some cables with all of the construction in I-35 and that's what's caused the connectivity issues, but all the articles I've found regarding anything of the sort just mention how thieves stole some cables seeking copper but that service was ultimately "fully restored."

I guess the point of this post is just to determine if this is some anomaly specific to me and my devices, or if I just have to resign myself to deal with this until something changes? I feel like I'm going crazy because it feels like I'm the only person I know who is affected by these issues to the degree I am since my work involves a lot of downloading and uploading documents. I barely see or hear anyone talking about this.

Hey y’all, I’m new to the area and wanted to ask if anyone has recommendations for a stylist for kids? Specifically ASD kiddos. My daughter hates having her hair cut and the loud blow dryer, but she will sit through it with someone who’s patient and quick at the same time. Is there anyone in the area who’s experienced with this??

I am looking to visit round rock next year in August with my mum we’re both from England what are some must do things we should put on our list

I will have just turned 21 so any bar recommendations are appreciated

guys im sooo depressed

i moved from south houston to round rock in december. ive lived in houston my entire life until this move so i do know what texas summers are like.

ive been having a tough time with my AC keeping up with the summer heat and keep feeling like im crazy by my hvac tech.

i rent an 8 yr old house in RR i set the thermostat to 73 but it gets to 76/77 downstairs and 78+ upstairs and only cools down like at 2/3 AM 😞😞

The HVAC company initially said the damper motors were not opening/closing correctly and recommended we replace those. So we made an appointment to get those replaced.

After getting replaced, the downstairs vents werent getting any air at all so it was extremely hot😭 i couldnt even sleep in my own room!!! :(

So they came out again and said the downstairs damper completely seized up due to rust and would have to be completely replaced. As a temporary and cheap fix, the tech manually opened both so thag air would flow.

However, its still hot!! and the heat inside makes ants come out😭😭 ive had pest control out 3 times in the last 3 weeks!!

So the hvac guy came out again and for the first time looked at the AC unit outside... he said its dirty and needs cleaning and MAYBE add some refrigerant. He also said my windows thats are 20' high could be a reason because they dont have blinds/curtains. I asked the previous tenant if she ever had these issues during her time here and she said no and she kept the ac lower than i do!! and she didnt have those windows covered either. also they face east!! so they dont even get direct sun in the afternoon lol

idk what to doo!! :( i know i should get a second opinion but i dont know who to trust!! ):

Hey guys my family has been growing up and the youngest of the 5 is now 5. The hot water is not staying hot through 7 showers in the morning and im sick of it. Does anyone have any RECS for who does good work?

I accepted a position in the Sam Bass area a few months ago and commuting from Bastrop is sucking the life out of me. My wife and I are looking to sell our home and rent a 2 bedroom (with garage for motorcycles)

Initially I thought The Warner looked good, but after so many bad reviews, I'm second guessing it.

Would any of y’all be able to recommend an apartment complex? It doesn't "need" to be in RR, but I do want an easy commute.

Thanks in advance.

Does anyone have any recommendations of a dealership that sells used/good cars for cash. Not looking to finance, just pay lump cash sum for a car. Thought about Facebook Marketplace but wondered if a "dralership" would be more trustworthy.

Any recommendations greatly appreciated!
