#NYC Tree Trimming

[the-epic-hiram-lows]

ignoring all visual staples in the comic and show... if you were tasked with wardrobe for riverdale, which aesthetics would you pull from?

Ooooh!

This is difficult, but I love it. For the sake of sanity, I am going to maintain color-coding to some extent. Also, please read my explanations and look at the pictures, because they both add a lot of context.

I will probably only get to one or two characters in this post, but if this gets a good enough reception I will happily continue the series.

Veronica Lodge

For Veronica... I would basically scrap the entire thing and start over new. I want to see a business-savvy teenager, sure, but I also want to see a former Hermes-toting NYC socialite who knows how to party. How do you marry those two concepts? The outfits do not all need to 100% represent every aspect of her, but her wardrobe should.

Though Riverdale (the show) fully embraces camp, Veronica's outfits should always look somewhat effortless. We should get the impression that her wardrobe is endless, and wardrobe is second nature, though it doesn't have to be tasteful. She would embrace a high-low aesthetic fairly often (think: perfectly undone waves and a white tee with a vintage Chanel skirt, or pair of black ankle boots with a delicate lace number and pearls.)

Veronica is a trendsetter and early adapter because she has her finger on the pulse. There is no excuse for these tired PDA mom looks. Here are aesthetics I would pull from when styling her:

Clueless/90s Academia Prep Revival

This is a girl who name-dropped Cruel Intentions! She knows these references. These looks are not only chic and young, but they scream 'old money' while also fitting into the Riverdale 50s academia undertones. We get to keep Veronica's signature stuffiness- but with the addition of casual pieces, a sense of novelty, and lots of upper thigh, we get a youthful, refined, sexy aesthetic. Unfortunately, most of the examples I used are not in the desired color palette, and many of them are cheapo material, but let's use our imaginations.

Click for more!

Y2k Socialite/It Girl

I want to see the glitz and glam! Veronica is the kind of girl who's had the $1k sundae at Serendipity 3's more than once, just for the hell of it. Where is the fun?! My immediate thought was Paris Hilton's famous 21st birthday look with the silver dress. Ignoring how she accessorized it, this would be a perfect reference (however inappropriate it would be in a school scene.) I want details like sheers, sequins, glitter, maribou trims, etc. The colors would be more subdued here- washed out metallics and neutrals, mostly. There are ample ways to make this more 'wearable,' but maybe sometimes Party Mode Veronica is too much.

Mob Wife

I know, I know. I was going for minimalism up top! Effortless! What happened? Well, what happened is this is Riverdale, and Veronica is Veronica. All characters in Riverdale are subject to extreme lifestyle changes- and, often, seemingly contradictory traits. In Riverdale, you are only one arc or setting change from a different aesthetic. Veronica is both the daughter of a mobster who tries really, really hard and (should be) the cool fashion girl among her peers. She wears many hats. I am just trying to make sure they're all stylish. Veronica should have a chameleonic quality to her. We should get the impression there are several Veronicas, all of whom had a wardrobe ready for whatever the occasion du jour is. A heist? Dinner with a crime family? Church with daddy? She has the tools necessary for all of these occasions, even if her wardrobe looks a bit contrived. In other words, Veronica didn't just fall out of a coconut tree. She exists in the context of all in which she lives, and what came before her. With this aesthetic, we get to have fun with some European and femme fatale influences.

Business Bitch

This is where Veronica as we know her gets to shine- it is the closest thing to her actual Riverdale aesthetic, but cuntier. You'll see all of the above come together here, as it is the fourth quadrant of her personality. Though this iteration of Veronica would be heavy on the black and white, high contrast thing she already has going (which I love!) there is plenty of room for color... even if the examples I pulled say otherwise.

WIP Wednesday 5.24.23

Hi, tumblrs! It’s still Wednesday where I am, and I have two WIPs to share. It’s two new ideas that somehow cut the line and demanded I write something out.

One was supposed to be my submission for #WorldWhiskeyDay, although it may be better suited for Halloween; not Fingers … I had the idea, but no cohesive thoughts have made an appearance yet. Although knowing me, this will probably post Halloween 2024.

The other is yet another take on the Applewood scandal. This is what, my third or fourth one?

And just to put us all on the same page and keep my brain on track, top priorities during writing time over the holiday weekend are: NYC AU, Waiting Room, and these two stories. The MC lunch ask is still floating around in my head as well and thoughts on a companion piece to Cocktail.

Anyways, excerpts are below the cut. As usual, everything is in a rough draft and final, published version may differ. Hope you like it!

Middle of Nowhere (tentative tile)

Song Inspo: Death Letter, Johnny Farmer, Organized Noize

The house sits on a bluff in the middle of nowhere overlooking a large, lazy river, as it has for the past century and a half. It’s almost picturesque, gleaming white clapboard covered with blue sky and bathed in early spring sunlight. Freshly mown grass is interspersed with wildflowers; pussy willows surround the bases of moss-covered trees.

The house has no postal address; it sits on Highway 62 East at Marker 129, in the unincorporated hamlet of Tannerton, equidistant between two bigger towns; not larger … bigger. Fifteen miles to the east is Potter’s Farm where residents and visitors enjoy the movie theater, gourmet Chinese food, a public library, and shopping at big box stores. Fifteen miles to the west is Easton, home to blue collar businesses, public parks and a hiking trail, and long stretches of road filled with fast-food chains, pizzerias, an ice-cream parlor, and a combination barber shop/hair salon.

The house sits empty as it has for the past five years; rumor, legend, and lore say the domicile is haunted, the land it sits on the site of brutal and unnecessary massacres. History tells of previous occupants who met grisly ends, or simply vanished as if the house’s walls and floorboards had swallowed them alive. There is no way to separate fact from fiction. Tannerton’s population is zero; the once-bustling waterway town is no more, save for the house.

Any eyewitnesses to the horrors of the house are the disappeared.

Except for two.  

The realtor stands on the front of the house’s wraparound porch, her blue eyes taking in the slow-rolling waves of the Acheron River. In Greek mythology, the River of Acheron was known as the River of Woe and was one of five rivers that led to Hell. As far as the woman knew, no one in this godforsaken corner of the world is aware of that interesting tidbit.

But she is. Her husband is, as he should. He named the river.

She is adjusting the long sleeves of her beige linen dress when her husband joins her on the veranda.

“Is everything ready?” she asks as she turns to face him. The realtor is an older woman, but her face gives no indication of that. Her skin is smooth and unlined even devoid of cosmetics, her sapphire-blue eyes clear and alert, her mouth a cupid’s bow with pale-pink tinted lips.

Her glossy brown hair is still long and wavy, but silver liberally threads her tresses. Her hands are liver-spotted and knotty with veins; her fingers are gnarled, the brittle nails yellowed with age. She tells anyone foolish enough to ask she suffers from arthritis.

“Is everything ready?” she asks, her tone distant as if her thoughts are otherwise occupied.

The man nods stiffly. He is tall and trim; like his wife, his appearance is youthful despite his graying hair. Unlike his wife, his hands and fingers were neither aged nor disfigured.

“It is. They’ll be arriving soon, it may be best to set out the refreshments.”

She nods absently as she scans the front yard. The setting is charming, inviting. A frisson of excited energy courses through her body at the thought of selling the house. There’s a buyer; a younger couple looking to escape the three C’s of a growing city: crime, clubs, congestion. Today is the final walkthrough. The house has sat empty too long; the whiskey untouched even longer.

Annabelle Beaumont walks around her husband to pull the screen door open. “Come, Barthelemy; we have to make sure the Walkers feel right at home when they arrive.”

Come on, come on, come on home

Scandal

Song Inspo: Delusional World Champion, Jean Dawson

Tariq Keriakos stared in puzzlement between his room door and Bastien Lykel, who stood in front of it barring the minor noble’s entry.

“There was a flood?” Tariq repeated stupidly.

The head of the King’s Guard nodded affirmatively. “A pipe burst while the hunt was going on. None of your belongings were harmed; maintenance noticed it almost immediately, but at the moment your quarters are without water.”

“Just my room?”

“Yes, m’Lord. The damage was contained in a timely manner, but we are awaiting parts to arrive. To avoid further inconvenience, another room has been secured for you. It’s Room 4 South.”

“South wing? Isn’t that where the suitors are housed?” Tariq questioned while Bastien pressed a key into his palm.

The sentry was briefly taken aback; the housing arrangement for the visitors at Applewood wasn’t a secret per se, but it wasn’t common knowledge. Bastien quickly recovered.

“It is; given that this is the last night, and all rooms have private baths, I do not foresee an issue.”

Tariq exhaled a long breath. The time at Applewood had been exhausting, this day more than usual. Between Lady Penelope passing him letters from Lady Riley, the horse ride to and from the Ruins, and now his room unavailable to him, Tariq was pretty much done.

“Fine. But my clothing? My toiletries?”

“Already moved and set up in your new quarters,” Bastien assured him.

With a resigned nod, Tariq made his way from the east wing, thinking only of a hot shower and a long sleep.

In the south wing, Riley Brooks, the suitor from America, sat at the vanity in her room re-thinking and possibly regretting every life choice that led to her being in Cordonia.

Hey!

I don't talk here much, but this is pretty near and dear to my heart. Despite owning and managing about 14% of NYC's land, NYC Parks makes less than 1% of the city's budget. When Mayor Adams took office, he promised to bring Parks to 1%, and yet now NYC Parks is facing another round of budget cuts.

This means cuts to playgrounds, to summer programs, to our natural areas, our street trees, our tree trimmings, our holiday events, and so, so much more.

If you can take a moment to sign this, I'd be incredibly grateful.

Keep Your Roof Strong: Simple Tips for Homeowners in Brooklyn and Queens

Hello to all the homeowners in Brooklyn and Queens! We all want a home that feels safe and secure, right? One of the biggest heroes in keeping your home protected is your roof. It blocks out the rain, keeps the cold out, and even helps you save on those energy bills. Let's go through some straightforward advice on how to keep your roof in top condition and why it's vital to pay attention to it.

Why Worry About Your Roof?

Imagine wearing a jacket with holes in it on a snowy day; you’d get pretty cold, wouldn’t you? The same idea applies to your home if your roof has issues. Here’s what a good roof does for you:

No Leaks: A solid roof means no water dripping into your house, which can cause damage to your walls, ceiling, and even your health.

Lower Energy Bills: If your roof is in great shape, it keeps your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, which means using less energy overall.

Better Home Value: A home with a well-maintained roof is more attractive to buyers if you ever decide to sell.

Peace of Mind: Knowing your roof is in good condition lets you rest easy, especially during those notorious NYC storms.

How to Take Care of Your Roof

Taking care of your roof doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are a few simple steps you can follow:

Visual Inspections: Make it a habit to look at your roof from the ground a couple of times a year or after any severe weather. Check for missing shingles, visible wear, or any sagging.

Keep Gutters Clear: Blocked gutters can lead to water backing up and damaging your roof. Cleaning your gutters regularly helps prevent this.

Trim Overhanging Branches: Trees near your home can be lovely, but they can also pose a risk to your roof. Keep branches trimmed back so they don’t rub against your roof or drop debris that can accumulate.

Watch for Moss and Mold: These can damage roofing materials over time. If you notice any green or black patches, it might be time to get your roof cleaned or checked by a professional.

When to Call the Professionals

Some roof issues need a professional touch. Here’s when to call in the experts:

Significant Damage: If your roof has extensive damage or if you notice several areas need repair, it’s best to get professional help.

Persistent Leaks: If you’ve noticed ongoing issues with leaks, a roofing professional can help identify the underlying problems and fix them.

Regular Maintenance: Having a professional do an annual check-up on your roof can help catch issues early and save you money and stress in the long run.

Why Trust Us With Your Roof?

If you’re in Brooklyn or Queens and need roof services, here’s why we should be your first call:

Clear Communication: We explain all our processes and findings clearly, so you always know what’s happening with your roof.

Conclusion: Keeping Your Roof Ready

Your roof is a crucial part of your home’s defense system against the weather. With a little attention and timely care, it can continue to function at its best, keeping your home safe and comfortable. Whether you need a quick fix or a complete overhaul, remember, we’re here to help keep your roof strong and your home secure.

The Importance of Proper Tree Maintenance in Urban Areas

Trees are beautiful and provide valuable shade, but they can also pose potential risks if not properly maintained. Keeping an eye out for any red flags and working with a local arborist can prevent damage, injuries and property loss and may even help you avoid costly insurance claims. A professional arborist can help with a wide range of issues, from pruning dead or diseased limbs to addressing structural problems. The arborist will carefully evaluate the health of a tree and develop a game plan to preserve its longevity. In urban areas, trees face different environmental assaults than those in natural forest settings. In addition to high winds and frequent snow storms, these trees are often in close proximity to buildings and power lines, which require extra care to maintain safety and integrity. Regular inspections of your tree’s health, including its trunk and root system, are essential to preserving your tree’s longevity. When you notice changes, such as rapid discoloration or stunted growth, it is best to call in a certified arborist right away. An arborist will be able to diagnose the problem and prescribe corrective measures before it escalates into a bigger issue that could endanger lives or cause significant property damage. Newly planted trees require proper anchoring and regular vigilance to establish strong roots and avoid becoming top heavy. When planting, a certified arborist can ensure that the soil is loose enough for proper root development and that the anchor cables are tightened appropriately. The arborist can also identify nutrient deficiencies and recommend the appropriate fertilizer application to encourage deep root penetration. If you have a young tree on your property, consider adding mulch around the base of its trunk to retain moisture and reduce erosion. Mulch can help the soil retain nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. It can also deter weeds, which can compete with the tree for nutrients and water. The City’s cable and utility companies, such as Con Edison, regularly trim City-owned trees in the right of way to keep them at safe distances from overhead power lines. In the event that a private tree is growing too close to power lines, it is the owner’s responsibility to notify Con Edison. Experts skilled in tree pruning in NYC take into consideration the architectural harmony of urban landscapes when sculpting their work. These professionals not only keep trees healthy and safe, they elevate their visual appeal and the beauty of the surrounding neighborhood. via https://litchfieldtreeservices1.wordpress.com/2024/05/08/the-importance-of-proper-tree-maintenance-in-urban-areas/

Still feeling overwhelmed with work, and not making enough progress, but I have managed to book hotels in NYC and New Haven, and sent an email request to book flights. It's going to be expensive, and the boyf is probably not coming along - plenty of company from colleagues though, hopefully. I will admit that if the cat wasn't in the picture, I would push the boyf to join, he'd only have to pay for his flight - and we could split that, even -, all the rooms are covered, but admittedly the flight ticket itself is expensive (close to 900 with no checked luggage), we don't have a cat sitter (I'd have to impose on my mother and brother to come feed him), and he'd be miserable with boredom, lack of cuddles and no balcony access, and June is lovely at home with plenty of things to do.

Skype meeting on Monday + prepping paperwork and class, had a good class on Tuesday + lots of emails & paperwork at the office later, a good workout on Wednesday, got to stay in and catch up on sleep and chores on Thursday, and on Friday, got a massage. No gardening this weekend due to rain and snow (stayed at home, cleaned a lot and did some laundry). There are still plenty of apple trees and loads of other things to trim, but am hoping that an early start means we'll get most of it done by the start of summer. And my chili peppers have sprouted in numbers that might overpower mom's greenhouse, and I've transferred them to bigger cardboard pots already.

Got a Sellpy order placed in throes of PMS (I think), the main item was a pair of designer sunglasses, which are cool but need a look in daylight to decide if they're actually flattering (aviators, but large-ish in an attention seeking way), 2 pairs of casualish trousers and a knit top I'll return because it's too transparent and clingy, most unflattering.

What Is Arborist Consulting?

What Is Arborist Consulting? https://ift.tt/eZ5Rvm7 Arborist Consulting is the practice of evaluating and providing tree advice. Trees are an important part of our environment, but they can pose a risk to homes and businesses in developed areas. An arborist consults with clients, contractors and consultants to ensure that trees remain protected during construction projects. The most common service provided by arborists is pruning, a technique used to trim or shape the branches of a tree. This helps direct the tree’s growth, as well as remove unhealthy or unwanted branches. Another service provided by tree arborists is deep root fertilization, which uses a special blend of nutrients to help struggling trees. In addition to these services, tree arborists can provide a variety of other consultations. For example, if you are planning a building project and are required to fill out a Department of Buildings New Building or Alteration Type I or II, an arborist can act as a liaison with NYC Parks and ensure that the proposed work does not affect any existing trees. Finding the right consulting arborists for your needs can be difficult. However, there are trusted agencies that offer a database of certified professionals with years of experience. Be sure to choose an independent arborist who does not also offer contracting work, as this could create a conflict of interest.

Property Maintenance 101: Tips for Keeping Your Investment in Top Shape

Investing in property is a significant commitment, and like any investment, it requires diligent care and maintenance to ensure its long-term value and functionality. Whether you're a property owner, landlord, or property manager, proactive property maintenance is essential for preserving your investment. Onboarding a rental management company in NYC can significantly benefit you. This blog will explore property maintenance tips to help you keep your real estate asset in shape.

HVAC System Maintenance Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are critical in property comfort. Schedule annual HVAC system inspections and maintenance by a qualified technician. Replace air filters regularly to improve air quality and maintain system efficiency.

Prioritize Safety Measures Safety should be a top priority in property maintenance. Ensure that smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors are installed and functioning correctly. Opting for companies that offer renting property management services in NYC will help you keep a regular check on fire extinguishers and emergency exits. Consider installing security systems and motion-sensor lighting to enhance property security.

Regular Inspections One of the cornerstones of adequate property maintenance is conducting regular inspections. Schedule routine inspections to assess the condition of your property, identify potential issues, and address them promptly. Reviews should cover the property's interior and exterior, including structural elements, plumbing, electrical systems, and appliances.

Create A Maintenance Schedule Maintaining a maintenance schedule is essential to staying organized and completing tasks on time. Your plan should include recurring maintenance tasks, such as HVAC system servicing, gutter cleaning, landscaping, and occasional or seasonal tasks like roof inspections and winterizing.

Plumbing & Electrical Checks Inspect plumbing and electrical systems for any signs of leaks, corrosion, or wear and tear. Address plumbing issues promptly to prevent water damage and ensure electrical systems are up to code and safe for occupants.

Roofs & Gutters Property managers near me regularly inspect the roof for missing or damaged shingles, leaks, or signs of deterioration. Clean and maintain gutters to prevent water buildup and potential damage to the property's foundation.

Landscaping & Exterior Maintenance Curb appeal matters and a well-maintained exterior enhances the property's aesthetics and contributes to its overall value. Regularly trim trees, bushes, and shrubs. Keep walkways clear and debris-free, and repair any cracks or damage to driveways and sidewalks.

Tenant Communication Open communication with tenants is essential if you are a landlord or property manager. Encourage tenants to report any maintenance issues promptly. Establish clear procedures for submitting maintenance requests and ensure that these requests are addressed promptly.

Budget For Maintenance Property management companies near me will create a budget for property maintenance expenses. Having a dedicated fund for maintenance ensures that you can cover the costs of repairs and improvements as they arise, preventing financial strain.

Professional Help While property owners or managers can handle many maintenance tasks, some may require professional expertise. For complex issues or significant renovations, don't hesitate to enlist the help of qualified contractors, technicians, and specialists.

Property maintenance is about preserving your investment's aesthetics and safeguarding its functionality, safety, and long-term value. Property owners and managers can ensure that their real estate investments remain in top shape for years by following these property maintenance tips and staying proactive. Remember, effective maintenance protects your investment and its appeal to tenants and potential buyers, making it a win-win for everyone involved Belgium Management LLC is a rental property management in New York that can help you assist your investment property.

At exactly 8:39 AM after I just finished applying lotion to the relative's body I am caregiver for and I was about to dress them. At this exact moment a staff member starts cutting / trimming or blowing grass directly under my relative's bedroom window.

As I walked through apartment to close windows from the noise the staff member who in the video had been walking in the opposite direction, was now walking in the same direction as me through the apartment as I closed the windows.

ILLEGAL SURVEILLANCE would only be able to coordinate action like this. All of my curtains in the apartment are shut so you could not know what room I was in or what I was doing or how / in what direction I was moving inside my apartment unless their is video and audio access to the inside of my apartment.

The age where a group of people at the NYC DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION decided to throw my life and essentially me away like garbage (see previous post of STREET THEATER shenanigans that went on this morning at around 6:30AM)

I am sitting in my bedroom as I post and this staff person is directly under my window with the noise. These people were just here last week. They don't seem to cut any of the other greenery besides the grass, trees, and shrubbery under my windows.

In addition to the HATE CRIME element to the ongoing stalking and harassment there is a RELIGIOUS Zealotry / Nuttery / Judgmental / FUNDAMENTALISM / EXTREMISM element to my daily harassment as I am being harassed by mostly MUSLIM and LATINO people. Based on facts / my observation, I would estimate that 9 out of 10 people harassing me on a daily basis are MUSLIM or LATINO, with MUSLIMS ranking number 1 (the majority being MEN and BOYS), MUSLIMS who appear to be from MIDDLE EASTERN / ARAB countries and countries on the ASIAN continent, such as BANGLADESH and PAKISTAN where the majority of the demographic is MUSLIM) I am STALKED and HARASSED by WOMEN and GIRLS as well (again mostly MUSLIM.and LATINO, however in lower numbers, seems to be a HARASSMENT CAMPAIGN led by MEN and BOYS, with their female counterparts ,associates, family members, etc assisting. All of the tenants in my apartment building are involved in HARASSING ME DAILY mostly with NOISE HARASSMENT / SLEEP DEPRIVATION especially the 3 apartments surrounding my apartment. 2 of the apartments are occupied by MUSLIM TENANTS and the 3rd apartment is occupied by LATINO TENANTS. The 3 tenants surrounding my apartment engage in DAILY NOISE HARASSMENT for obvious reasons, since our apartments share multiple walls they are the logical choice to engage in a daily NOISE HARASSMENT / SLEEP DEPRIVATION campaign because they have direct access to bang / pound / stomp / scratch on walls and ceilings (I live on the first floor), etc. In order for them to do the realtime harassment, they have to also have VISUAL and / or AUDIO access to my RESIDENCE, as well as access to my PERSONAL INTERNET / DEVICES. These GROUP STALKERS / ABUSERS / HARASSERS / DOMESTIC TERRORISTS HAVE BEEN HARASSING ME SINCE SUMMER 2016 TO FORCE ME OUT OF THE COMMUNITY (for no legitimate reason).

A community I have been part of SINCE 1976 (nearing 47 YEARS). I NEVER HAD ISSUES WITH INDIVIDUALS OR GROUPS OF INDIVIDUALS FOR THE ALMOST 40 YEARS I was part of this community when the TARGETED COMMUNITY HARASSMENT began SUMMER 2016 after being subjected to WORKPLACE MOBBING AT NYC DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION (BEGINNING IN 2015), where I had to quit from in APRIL 2016. After I quit (AS A RESULT OF THIS HARASSMENT / EMOTIONAL ABUSE / WORKPLACE MOBBING at NYC DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION) IN APRIL 2016 AND REPORTING THIS TO NYS DEPARTMENT OF LABOR IN APRIL / MAY 2016, I BEGIN BEING HARASSED in my neighborhood in ASTORIA, NY, a community I had been part of for 40 YEARS at that point. ASTORIA, NY IS A COMMUNITY I HAVE BEEN PART OF SINCE 1976 (DRAMA and CONFLICT FREE and IN A GENERAL STATE OF PEACE, TRANQUILITY and SAFETY).

SUMMER 2016 - ASTORIA, NY - TARGETED COMMUNITY HARASSMENT BEGINS (I noticed it was mostly MUSLIM people harassing me) Due to UNPROVOKED and UNWARRANTED HATE, RACISM, MISOGYNY and RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM, brought on by ILLEGAL ACCESS to and LEAKING OF PRIVATE, PERSONAL, CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION and a CHARACTER ASSASSINATION / SLANDER / RUMOR / GOSSIP MILL / SMEAR CAMPAIGN waged against me by NYC GOVERNMENT agency STAFF MEMBERS while I was employed at NYC DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION from 2014 to 2016 I began being harassed in my neighborhood in ASTORIA, NY and other places I would travel to (in and outside) of NYC in SUMMER 2016.
