prairieville: Neighbors in Galvez need help rescuing a dog! - 02/16/11 12:00 PM
**UPDATE** The dog has been rescued!
This story aired on the news last night.
I am saddened by what seems to be the lack of support from authorities in our Parish.
Seems that there is a dog stuck in the drainage system in Norwood Lakes. He was there last week while we had those days of below freezing temperatures. The neighbors have been feeding him and have asked for assistance in rescuing him. They were given a pole with a loop at the end... Doesn't make much sense to me.   If any of you know anyone that can help, please, please go … (1 comments)

prairieville: Should I Change The Locks On The Home I Just Purchased? - 01/26/11 05:01 PM
My answer to the question every time is, "YES"!
Many years ago, before I was an agent myself, my husband and I purchased a new home. We were very excited about our next move up in the housing market. The home was vacant when we started the negotiations. We closed within 30 days and everything we well. At the closing the previous owners handed over the keys to our new home. They asked if we were going to move in right away. We told them that we were leaving the next morning for two weeks to visit my husband's family up … (4 comments)

prairieville: Girl Scout Cookies...There's An App For That! - 01/21/11 09:46 PM
It's Girl Scout Cookie time! I know this because lots of the little girls I know have been updating on their Mother's Facebook Status letting me know that they were accepting pre-orders for their heavenly little treasures. Tonight we had our first door knocker peddling her yummy goodness. All this talk about cookies made me think about searching for a Girl Scout Cookie page on Facebook. I found it! http://www.facebook.com/GirlScoutCookies Immediately I see a box that says "Go To App"... Well, I had to see what that was all about! You know those apps that let you send hugs and such?

prairieville: I Can Do This...I Saw the Video On YouTube! - 01/02/11 10:30 PM
Two days before New Years Day I decided I wanted bangs. They are coming back in style... right?  Of course, I decided that I wanted them and I wanted them NOW! No time to wait for a hair appointment and I didn't want to spend the extra money anyway. Any of this sounding familiar to you? Well, that evening I decided that I was going to do it myself. I hopped on YouTube and searched "How To Cut Your Own Bangs". Watching the videos, I thought well, this is simple. I can do this! Discounting all the posts that warned me I … (3 comments)

prairieville: East Baton Rouge, Ascension and Livingston Parish Fireworks Information - 12/30/10 10:13 PM

If you live in East Baton Rouge Parish all forms of fireworks are illegal for you.
Cross the line over to Ascension Parish and you will find numerous fireworks stands filled with the delightfully fun explosives. Fireworks in Ascension Parish are legal except for the areas of Gonzales and Donaldsonville.
Drive a little ways down Interstate 12 into Livingston Parish and you will again find numerous fireworks stands just waiting for you to stop by. It is my understanding that fireworks in Livingston Parish are legal in all areas except for the cities of Denham Springs and Walker.

prairieville: 10 Things I've Learned in 2010... - 12/27/10 04:07 PM
2010 was again a year of learning experiences. I am happy to say this because when you stop learning, you stop living. There should always be a level of learning in your life.
This list is more on a personal level with a little humor attached.  Life is too short not to have a little humor! 
1. I've learned that a smile, a sweet text message or an encouraging comment can make someone's day (that's why I love Social Media!). It's those little things in life that truly add up.
2. I've learned that #TequilaTherapy with friends needs to happen at … (2 comments)

Oh, Parades! My heart races like it did when I was a child. The anticipation when you hear the sirens is so exciting, the sound of the big bass drum passing by with the marching bands, trying to catch the most wonderful throws, the excitement of the big finale...Santa Claus! I love a parade!
We have some wonderful Christmas parades in the Baton Rouge/Ascension/Livingston areas this year.

prairieville: Home for Sale: 37165 Longwood Avenue, Prairieville LA 70769 - 04/22/10 10:46 AM

There is a fabulous home for sale in Longwood Subdivision in beautiful Ascension Parish.
This home's location is so conveniently located yet so incredibly private.
The large covered patio in the back that overlooks the pond is exactly where I would spend my afternoons and weekends.  I bet you will agree when you experience the peacefulness for yourself.
