&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Growing up with grandma admittedly wasn't easy, but something changed after my grandpa died. There was such a softening inside of her. Truly it helped when they realized that she was having some "older lady" issues and they stabilized her blood sugar.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Over the years my grandma has been a picture of health and strength. She worked for so many years side by side her husband on the farm. Putting her all into everything that she accomplished.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;It was a killer when we lost grandpa. My grandma felt lost for quite some time but she had her friends by her side and she was able to grow through it and become a woman that I truly admire.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Her sweetness has astounded me time and time again.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;I will always miss her potato salad and homemade cookies and pie. &lt;br /&gt;I will miss her smile and her lovingkindess that she bestowed on those around her.&lt;br /&gt;I will miss her stories of her past and their tie to our present.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;I am grateful that I spent the last year getting my boys to see her as often as I could. &lt;br /&gt;I'm happy that in my heart I have happy memories of her singing ditties with them and her laughing at their antics.&lt;br /&gt;I'm happy in my heart that my grandma had time on earth to meet my children and leave her footprint in their lives.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;It's beautiful to me that my 2-year old talks about her when we see women of a similar age range. &lt;br /&gt;I'm happy that he had the time to love her and know her.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;img title="grandma" src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/1/3/1/3/4/ar122010960443131.JPG" height="150" alt="grandma" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Last night my grandma went home... suddenly...&lt;br /&gt;She is reunited with the ones she loved that went before her.&lt;br /&gt;The doctors don't know why, but all we know is that it was her time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Sad as I am (I've been crying all morning) I am happy to know that she won't be lonely anymore.&lt;br /&gt;I'm happy to know that she will no longer have physical pains that hold her down.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;I loved my grandma.&lt;br /&gt;And now it's time to say goodbye to her.&lt;br /&gt;The hardest part is explaining to my son that he won't see her anymore....&lt;br /&gt;All I know is that she was one special lady!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;Real estate in this century requires many things. A certain must is that we must speak the language of our clients. Without the ability to speak their language we cannot complete our work.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;In most of the country that starts with the ability to speak English... in some areas Spanish, Chinese, African dialects and much more. With the use of interpreters we can go a long ways, but this really is only the beginning of defining the languages that we must know.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;On any given day a realtor must know how to speak...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; MapQuest&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;Buyer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Seller&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Caring and Understanding Friend&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Professional Decorator/Stager&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Rough and Tumble Negotiator&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;Very Old&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Very Young&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;and somewhere in the middle&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Professional and Honest Agent&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Dreamer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;Secretary&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Loan Officer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Counselor&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Administrator&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;Mom/Dad&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Child&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;Worker&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;From morning until sundown each day can bring us new clients, current clients, past clients, friends, family and much more.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;The longer you work in this business the more languages you may be required to speak. Some agents specialize in certain areas: first time buyers, sellers, bank properties, rentals, fixer uppers, etc.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;However, the majority of us end up with a splattering in every area requiring us to speak many many different languages.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;My first several sales in real estate were buyers. First time buyers. I learned how to speak to them. I learned that they needed me to hold their hands and guide them through the process. I learned how to talk title, lender, friend and chaeuffer in a quick hurry.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;It didn't end there. One of my clients recommended me to a family friend who was older and moving from one home to another. I had to learn to talk perfection. I learned how to talk seller. The loss of something precious in order to gain something better. I learned how to talk second home buyer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;During my first years of real estate working with buyers I had to learn how to talk negotiator as I represented several deals in multiple offers. I had to learn to talk tough and strong to my competing agents as well as empathetic to my buyers as they struggled to get a home they loved.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;I've learned that it's important to be able to communicate clearly with the elderly as they sell their beloved possessions and homes to downsize to something more practical. And I've learned it necessary to be able to communicate with their children and yet another younger generation. I've learned the importance in taking their individual situations as I communicate and guide them through their real estate process.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;I've learned to talk lender so that my clients needs are met practically and mindfully.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;I've learned to talk title so that my clients are taken care of and that all dots and "t's" are set before we ever reach the closing table.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;I've learned to talk secretary as I am one for myself but also because I need to be able to clearly communicate with my office that is supporting me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;I've learned the importance of being friends and yet maintaining professionalism in each transaction from the buyer to seller to the other agents involved. I've learned the language of respect.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;I've learned that if I can't be clear and understanding in each and every situation that I may as well bale from it all and find a different business.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;I've truly learned that part of the reason that I love this business is that I can be myself. I can tend to my clients with careful and thoughtful respect of who they are and what their situation is. I can laugh with them, cry with them, celebrate with them and help them attain that which is most important. In each situation I can grow with my clients and the professionals that we work with along the way.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;It's truly a remarkable business that we have and that is why I love where I am.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;We were at the state fair this week and saw the most gorgeous display of outside play towers. My son played and played on it... until we dragged him away with promises of more fun.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;I brought home one of the company's catalog to drool over for awhile and my son stole it from me and wouldn't let it go. He constantly talked about his "sphwings" and how he wanted to slide at the "store" again.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Yesterday morning my hubby looked at the catalog and asked how much "those things" cost and he almost fell over when he saw the price.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;With both of us being self-employed many of the "toys" get put on the back burner while we try to make all the ends meet. We've decided that debt reduction is the key and then we'll play later.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Anyways, I had a closing yesterday and was gone for several hours. &lt;br /&gt;This is what I came home to....&lt;br /&gt;Well, this with the kids playing on it!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img title="playfort" src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/7/3/2/5/5/ar122003162355237.JPG" height="267" alt="playfort" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;My hubby and I are still in shock. &lt;br /&gt;A neighbor just came and dropped it off.&lt;br /&gt;He asked where they got it and they said it's a "gift from heaven!"&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;I can't tell you how excited my boys are.&lt;br /&gt;They went to sleep last night talking about their "sphwings" and the slide.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;I may be an adult now, but this play fort is as much fun for me as my kids!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Is your mean ol' TV laughing at you?&lt;br /&gt;Are you&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; READY&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; for the change ahead??&lt;br /&gt;It could be devastating you know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In some ways this could be more monumental than the millenium threats. &lt;br /&gt;It's not a "what if" situation but a "matter of time" situation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The question is: Are YOU ready?&lt;br /&gt;Have you taken care of business?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/4/1/8/1/1/ar121953529511814.jpg" height="137" alt="" width="141" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;If you are hooked on the latest soap opera you won't want to get stuck in the dark. &lt;br /&gt;Maybe it's the "Buy my house" shows that you watch in hopes of great ideas in selling yours.&lt;br /&gt;Or maybe the next live football game?!?!?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With high definition television quickly coming our way we have to look at the options.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. We can ignore it and head outside when the tv dies....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. We can wait until the channel is dead and make a mad rush to the store in hopes that there are still some tv's left to buy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. We can take advantage of the rebate coupons being distributed by the gov't and get the converter box now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Whichever&lt;/strong&gt; you decide is right for you....&lt;br /&gt;you can get more info &lt;a href="http://www.dtv.gov/" title="dtv." target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Whatever &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;you decide? &lt;br /&gt;It'll be easier to take care of PRIOR to February 17th, 2009!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;So......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Where are you at?&lt;br /&gt;Are you making them?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;I can say that I'm a little behind.&lt;br /&gt;A little behind on my real estate goals (though catching up)...&lt;br /&gt;A little behind on my fitness goals...&lt;br /&gt;A little behind on my household goals...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can only ask "how did it happen?"&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Then, look forward. &lt;br /&gt;I have to look at them, revise them, refocus and move forward!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;So, with just FOUR months left in the year...&lt;br /&gt;I am moving forward! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is still time. &lt;br /&gt;Time to make it happen.&lt;br /&gt;Time to focus.&lt;br /&gt;Time to get the job done!&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Minnesota Law Requires CO Detectors</title>

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;As of August 1, 2008 all residential homes in Minnesota are required to have CO Detectors. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Carbon Monoxide is a serious threat in Minnesota during the winter heating season. &lt;br /&gt;With the cool starting to inch it's way back into our northern climates we need to be thinking about the effectiveness of our furnaces.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;If you don't already have one, now is a great time to get your CO detector installed. &lt;br /&gt;Whether it's a battery, plugin or hardwired unit...&lt;br /&gt;it is worth the time it takes to install.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Maybe now is the time to have your furnace cleaned, serviced and filter changed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;For more information on the new law visit &lt;a href="http://www.fire.state.mn.us/" target="_blank"&gt;www.fire.state.mn.us&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;If you are considering OR have your home on the market - it is a great idea to make sure that you are ahead of the game. This new law will require CO detectors installed prior to sale (as I understand) so it's a great thing to do "in advance".&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Just a little whine... just a little one. &lt;br /&gt;I was on my way to show a house today and saw the coolest building. &lt;br /&gt;I pulled over... stopped the car.... leaned over to grab my camera out of my purse...&lt;br /&gt;and realized it was still at home from our birthday party last night.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;I was soooooooooo bummed. &lt;br /&gt;I wish I'd had it with. &lt;br /&gt;Really, it's not that great a loss. I can go again and take a pic. The building isn't going anywhere.&lt;br /&gt;The bummer is...&lt;br /&gt;Now I can't find my camera at all.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;I have a funny feeling that my 2-year squandered it and hid it somewhere. &lt;br /&gt;The key is where?&lt;br /&gt;I'm not even sure that is the truth, but our house is "fairly" clean due to having company last night and I can't find it anywhere.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Ugh....&lt;br /&gt;That means I'll be scouring every nook and cranny tomorrow! &lt;br /&gt;If you call me you'll find my down on hands and knees looking through every toy and every wrinkle in the house.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;img title="Sonic Elk River" src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/9/0/1/0/4/ar121893061840109.JPG" height="183" alt="Sonic Elk River" width="251" style="float: left;" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;This last spring Burger Time closed and a "for sale" sign went up on the property. &lt;br /&gt;Yes, it's true....&lt;br /&gt;After years of enjoying the walk-up Burger and "biggie" fries of Burger Time they closed their doors for their very last time. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One could only imagine what would go up in it's place. The tiny little lot that sits between the clinic and SuperAmerica. &lt;br /&gt;It didn't take long to find out!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short fashion Sonic stuck it's sign up on the edge of the property and within weeks we watched the old building come down and the new building going up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img title="Sonic ER" src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/7/8/7/6/9/ar121893070496787.JPG" height="261" alt="Sonic ER" width="334" style="float: right;" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;The anticipation of the new fast food joint grew and grew. &lt;br /&gt;Daily I heard rumors of it opening soon.&lt;br /&gt;Then, one day, it did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It opened in a &lt;strong&gt;BIG&lt;/strong&gt; way!&lt;br /&gt;They hired security guards and put cones up all the way down the main drag in town.&lt;br /&gt;I think that they over-anticipated the hype, but it was busy. &lt;br /&gt;It took over a week for us to "brave" the crowds and walk up for an icecream treat.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;It's weird to have waiters/waitresses roller blading with food in their hands. &lt;br /&gt;I can't imagine doing it myself &lt;br /&gt;(that's why I sell real estate)&lt;br /&gt;but they have certainly created an ambiance.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Even now, today, you will find yourself fighting traffic and security guards to line up in wait of a great Sonic burger. I'm sure that one day the hype of the new burger will die, but in the near future it will probably stay a pretty popular thing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;So, if you want to feel like you are in the "In" then get out and head to Sonic!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Froggy in my lockbox...</title>

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;So, you all are gonna think that I have some fascination with frogs, but this was a first for me! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was showing one of my listings today and when I was opening the lockbox a frog poked it's head out. That little frog (toad) was hiding between the lockbox and the door lock and scared the living daylights out of me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;So, I got past myself and calmed my innards before letting the buyers into the home. &lt;br /&gt;Yeah, I'm pretty sure that they were laughing at me behind my back...&lt;br /&gt;Afterall, that's what you do when you meet a realtor at a house and they shriek right?...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Anyways, we were touring the house and I opened the door part way through to look at something and was surprised to see that the frog had completely disappeared. &lt;br /&gt;Yeah, I shoulda known better!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img title="froggy in my lockbox" src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/9/2/5/9/2/ar121892966729529.jpg" height="267" alt="froggy in my lockbox" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Do you know what it &lt;em&gt;feels&lt;/em&gt; like to completely miss the fact that there is a fleshy animal &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;INSIDE &lt;/span&gt;your lockbox when you are putting away the key and yakking at someone else instead of watching what you are doing?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Pretty sure these guys won't be calling me to be their professional representation in the future. &lt;br /&gt;I know that I'm gonna look back on this situation and laugh...&lt;br /&gt;One day...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I freed the little guy from the lockbox with a twig (and he seemed eternally grateful).&lt;br /&gt;Since he seemed at home on the door I stuck him back on the door handle. &lt;br /&gt;Am I just setting up the next agent for a good scream?&lt;br /&gt;Maybe, but at least they won't be the only one!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img title="frog on door handle" src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/6/6/0/0/4/ar121893014340066.JPG" height="267" alt="frog on door handle" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Sad thing is, I figured that I'd already botched my professionalism so bad that it wouldn't hurt to stop and take a picture.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Yeah, I'll laugh about it one day.. One day very soon I'm sure!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;I was showing homes this morning and enjoying my time with my clients, but sure wishing that I had my camera with me. Every time I show homes I &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;learn&lt;/span&gt; something, &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;see&lt;/span&gt; something or am &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;shocked&lt;/span&gt; by something.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Today?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today I hit all three...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have seen homes with deadbolts on the door, but I have never seen a deadbolt added UNDERNEATH the door handle. Two homes that I showed had lockboxes swinging way out to heaven because the deadbolts were in the way. Hmmm.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;But, I&amp;nbsp;gotta tell you, there is something else that I saw that actually took the cake. &lt;br /&gt;I have seen pebbled ceilings. I have seen flat ceilings. I have seen textured ceilings...&lt;br /&gt;But, I hafta tell you,...&lt;br /&gt;I have NEVER ever in all my years seen a ceiling with STRAW hanging in it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;That's right. Straw and plaster mixed and pasted to the ceiling?&lt;br /&gt;Why is all I can ask?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Were they trying for a barn feel? &lt;br /&gt;It's such a mystery.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;You can never tell. Houses tell so many stories... but they also leave some questions forever to be unanswered.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Where'd my agent go?</title>

&lt;p&gt;When I started real estate in 2004 there were record numbers of realtors in Minnesota and those numbers were growing strong and steady. I wondered what that would mean for me in the years to come. I knew that my competition would be fierce and that I'd have to be professional and knowledgable to do the best that I could do!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If my memory serves me correctly the numbers were reaching in the 24,000 range which was awesome for our beloved midwest state.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are currently running our realtor race in Minnesota at 17,125 active agents. That is 2,080 less then 2007.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That is a 1.48 average of closed transactions per agent this year with an average income of $5,378. Doesn't seem like much does it?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Don't despair....&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For agents working 40+ per week the closed transactions jumped to 12+ and those working 50+ are closing 16+!!!!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Basically - put in the time and you will succeed!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Currently there are over 6,000 agents in our state that haven't had any transactions this year. (thankfully not me!).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The MAR is anticipating a drop in agents before the end of the year. It seems to happen in late fall every year. Either the numbers are up - or they are down. This year? They are anticipating a 7,000 agent drop. Wow!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We shall see what the end of the year will&amp;nbsp;bring, but for me? I'll still be here next year. Don't have to worry about my going anywhere. Just really intrigued by statistics.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Recently I did a market for a home in the area and the sellers disclosed to me that there was some recent storm damage on their property. They already had an adjuster out and were waiting for the check to come in the mail to make the repairs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They asked me if I felt it advisable to replace the roof and siding that the money was being sent for - or if they should pocket the money and let the new buyer's deal with the damage on their own....&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My advice was that they should, of course, fix the damage. That they had to disclose the damage and that most buyer's would ask for those things to be taken care of prior to closing anyways.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO glad that I gave that advice!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It sounds very much like the disclosures in Minnesota will soon be changing to include a section about insurance claims. They will be requiring sellers to divulge any insurance claims that they've made and whether they used the money towards that issue or not.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What a sticky situation that could become!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can see it now, "yes, Mr buyer, we DID have an insurance claim sent in for our property but we decided to buy a new car with the money instead of putting a new roof on..." Hmmmm.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It's always best to be honest up front isn't it?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;If you are thinking of buying a home... now is a great time to do it!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is a $7500 tax credit available to you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The upside of this credit is that it gives you power to buy if you don't have much to work with.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The downside of this credit is that it's payable back over 15 years. If you are to sell your home before that time the credit will be prorated and collected back at the time of closing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To find out if you qualify for this credit give me a call today! I will put you in touch with a lender that can help you work through all the details!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There are so many changes in the housing industry that sometimes it's hard to keep up with them all. It takes everyone working together to keep it all straight!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This week in Minnesota real estate it may be important to know that the state deed tax is on the rise!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It has been set at $3.30/1000 for a long time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Recently Ramsey and Hennepin Counties adopted a change to $3.40/1000. If you are living in these areas and are thinking of selling your home this is important information! It will make a difference on your net proceeds.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are other counties that are considering following in these footsteps.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please beware when you are selling your home that these numbers are on the rise and they may affect you! If you have any questions on this change or any changes in the market please call today!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Time sure flies when no one's looking doesn't it? &lt;br /&gt;It's time to head out that door and around the corner to the local superstore to pick up this year's necessities. &lt;br /&gt;There are a couple of great ways to find out exactly what the little ones (or not so little) will need this year heading back to school.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;When I was growing up they always posted the "list" of needs on the windows of the school and we'd have to drive up to look and write down our particular needs.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://extend.schoolwires.com/clipartgallery/images/32865640.gif&amp;amp;imgrefurl=http://cmsweb2.loudoun.k12.va.us/littleriver/&amp;amp;h=312&amp;amp;w=358&amp;amp;sz=100&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;start=5&amp;amp;tbnid=JFkd-VX6D3NiKM:&amp;amp;tbnh=105&amp;amp;tbnw=121&amp;amp;prev=/images%3Fq%3Dback%2Bto%2Bschool%26gbv%3D2%26hl%3Den"&gt;&lt;img src="http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:JFkd-VX6D3NiKM:http://extend.schoolwires.com/clipartgallery/images/32865640.gif" height="105" alt="" width="121" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now, with a more sophisticated system, you can go a few different routes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: right;"&gt;The local &lt;a href="http://www.target.com" target="_blank"&gt;Target &lt;/a&gt;and &lt;a href="http://www.walmart.com" target="_blank"&gt;Walmart&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; and &lt;a href="http://www.officemax.com" target="_blank"&gt;Office Max&lt;/a&gt; carry those lists for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can go online and check out the &lt;a href="http://instoresnow.walmart.com/back-to-school-article_ektid48440.aspx" target="_blank"&gt;lists&lt;/a&gt; for your age child.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;If you &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;AREN'T&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; the parent of a school ager (yet or anymore) you can still jump in the fun!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.caerfoodshelf.org/" target="_blank"&gt;CAER&lt;/a&gt; Foods is a local community food shelf that accepts donations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ktis.org" target="_blank"&gt;KTIS&lt;/a&gt; is a local radio station that collects school supplies for needy children in the inner cities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;This is my friendly reminder that the 2008 elections are drawing near!&lt;br /&gt;As the excitement grows and the candidates fall into place&lt;br /&gt;you'll want to be ready!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;If you've never voted before you'll want to be registered before the polling dates arrive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sos.state.mn.us/home/index.asp?page=204" target="_blank"&gt;VOTING REGISTRATION INFO&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;You may register to vote on voting day, but most polling places for this presidential election will be filled with lines and people waiting to share their voice on the matter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take the couple minutes that it takes and sign yourself up today and let your voice be heard!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;When you call me at any given time of day you might here me say, "Hang On!...."&lt;br /&gt;as I run to the other room to shut out the noise of two toddlers having fun!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;I've never had a client complain about it...&lt;br /&gt;Especially once they meet the faces behind the noise.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;These little guys are my life (outside of real estate)&lt;br /&gt;and today I feel like highlighting their sweet existance in my life!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/2/9/1/9/4/ar121808482649192.JPG" height="150" alt="petey" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;They've been with me on showings...&lt;br /&gt;On Inspections...&lt;br /&gt;Writing purchase agreements...&lt;br /&gt;At closings...&lt;br /&gt;Office Meetings...&lt;br /&gt;Continuing Ed (On rare rare occasion)...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My mascots are never very far away!&lt;br /&gt;My clients all know that if they hire me - they get the boys. &lt;br /&gt;I try to leave them behind, but don't feel bad to have them around either!&lt;br /&gt;They are awesomely behaved and I couldn't trade for a better bunch of fun...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/6/0/0/8/2/ar121808490028006.JPG" height="150" alt="paulie" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;So, if you see me heading into the grocery store, &lt;br /&gt;lazing around on the beach,&lt;br /&gt;driving down the road...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wherever I might be...&lt;br /&gt;Whatever I might be doing...&lt;br /&gt;I'm sure to have these two someone around me -&lt;br /&gt;Even if it's only "on my mind!"&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;Remember to take time out for your family today! &lt;br /&gt;It's worth the while in every way.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are looking for professional real estate services I am only a ring away! I am looking forward to working with you.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
