Laziness as one cause for unemployment? - 11/28/11 09:09 AM
I know this may cause an unleashing of “how dare you” kind of comments so first let me say, I know for a fact that there are many people who are truly looking hard for work.  They make job hunting their business.  They are up early, investigating every lead, sending out resumes, applying on line, and applying for any job they think they would be able to do. And when they get a job, they are grateful and they work to keep those jobs. These are NOT the people I’m talking about in this blog. 
However, every time I hear … (11 comments)

Death and Rebirth - 11/25/11 04:09 PM
It’s been a tough few weeks in my world.  First, my brother-in-law passed away unexpectedly, and second, my mother’s condition as she battles with cancer has deteriorated significantly.   The combination of both has thrown me for a bit of a loop and my mind and actions have been somewhat unfocused (which has also resulted in my not posting my real estate and localism blogs lately).
I’m no stranger to death, unfortunately.  As I mentioned in a previous blog (http://wp.me/p1le37-6c), I lost my sister when we were teenagers.  That loss helped shaped my focus in life.  I totally “get it” that this … (5 comments)

3 Bedroom, 2 Bath Beacon Hill Co-op for Sale in beautiful Dobbs Ferry, NY! - 11/08/11 02:52 PM
This beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bath co-op was mine for the last nine years, and it is now on the market and can be yours!  It is located in a gorgeous, well-landscaped co-op complex on Beacon Hill Drive in Dobbs Ferry, NY.
I loved living here.  I spent summer afternoons at our private pool.  My children grew up within walking distance of the parks and schools.  I shot baskets with my boys up at the basketball court, practiced tennis skills at the handball court (I didn't play handball), spent afternoons tossing the baseball around, and sat outside with a book on the … (5 comments)

My neighbor's cat licks my earlobes - 11/03/11 09:57 AM
I'm not kidding; it's true.  But I think a bit of history is in order.
A few years ago, a cat started coming to my husband's house.  Every so often, perhaps once a month, the cat would come visit for a day or two.  He had no flea collar, regular collar or tag, and was somewhat scruffy looking.  My husband would feed the cat, it would rub against his legs and purr, and it would disappear.  He assumed it was a neighborhood stray.
This continued for several years.  The cat would come.  He would feed it.  The cat would leave.
Then … (15 comments)

Autumn Snowfall 2011 - View from Monroe, NY - 11/02/11 07:17 AM
Late October is an unusual (but not unheard of) time for snowfall in the Northeast.  On October 29th of this year, the Northeast was hit with a Nor'easter which dumped quite a bit of snow.  There have already been many reviews and news articles and blogs about the snow and power outages, but I thought I'd add one about the snowstorm from my perspective.
The Monroe, NY area was forecast to have anywhere from 8 to 14" depending on which news report one listened to.  Early that morning, I took Halo, our Siberian Husky, out for a walk and several of … (6 comments)
