kim fendrick: Buyers, buyers where are they coming from?
- 04/04/09 04:53 PM
There are a number of buyers out there in the market. I am definitely not complaining but where are they coming from? I am trying to understand more about the market. Are the buyers hitting a certain demographics? Are they all looking at the same price range of homes? Could they be coming from the $8,000 stimulus package? I have experienced a range of clients, wide range of prices, and locations. I have been trying to do as much research as I can. I spoke with the relocation department at a Real Estate company in the metro and they could … (1 comments)

kim fendrick: Are you a giving person?
- 03/29/09 03:20 PM
Are you a giving person? Are you a giving agent? I refer to giving in this statement as an adverb. Not giving as a verb. An adverb describes something and I am asking if your clients would describe you as a giving agent. I give, as a verb, in a number of ways to my clients. I give my time, my knowledge, my worksheets, and other things. I also am a giving Real Estate Agent, as an adverb. How? I am a giving agent by being patience, forgiving, keeping my promises, smiling, laugh with them, apologize to them if I have … (7 comments)

kim fendrick: David finally did it!
- 03/27/09 03:33 PM
David Letterman tied the knot after, what, what...that's a long long time. How long? It was 23 YEARS. David Letterman really did get married to his long time partner of 23 years in a civil ceremony. The ceremony was held in Montana on March 19th. When I heard David Letterman got married, I was shocked and did not believe it for a second. I am a huge David Letterman fan. I last went to a taping of his show in 2000. I loved the show. We were fortunate enough to do "know you cuts of meats" on a Thursday taping of the show. Congratulations, … (1 comments)
kim fendrick: A Community Treasure....Under the Sink
- 03/16/09 03:13 PM
What is under your sink? In your garage? In the basement? What if you are moving and the movers will not take your household chemicals? Old paint, pesticides, rechargeable batteries, fluorescent bulbs, insect repellent, motor oil, glues, gas, caulk, aerosol cans, spray paint are all recyclables. If you have old or unused hazardous items such as these where can you dump them? Under the Sink! Under the Sink, a facility in Omaha NE, recycles hazards that cannot/should not be put in landfills. Where better than to take all your old paints and paint cans. Do you know what they do with … (0 comments)
kim fendrick: Daylight Savings Time
- 03/08/09 06:48 PM
Where did this come about? Why do have to set our time back and forth? I totally can live with the time schedules of Daylight Savings. Who can't? Long days with sunshine and more light. My house welcomes late nights outside with open arms. I think it would even help in the winter months. And it will take me at least a week to adjust to the new time schedule. Daylight savings time started in 1918 and last for 1 year as a wartime measure. The nation did this to decrease fuel use in households and redirect it to the … (2 comments)
kim fendrick: Septic Systems: Part 2
- 03/08/09 05:34 PM
One important part to any good working machine is how well we take of it. That will determine how long and how well it works for us. Septic systems are no different. These systems are not care free. Tanks need to be pumped out every 2 to 5 years. The time line is based on the size of the tank and usage of it. The tank needs to be pumped when the sludge reaches 1/3 of the tank depth. Household waste and chemicals may cause damage to the system. Avoid fat or grease going into the system as well as harsh … (2 comments)
kim fendrick: Septic Systems Basics
- 03/08/09 05:11 PM

kim fendrick: Annual Migration
- 03/01/09 06:17 AM
Happy 1st day of March. With March here, it brings migration and that means sandhill cranes in Nebraska. The annual migration of sandhill cranes goes through central Nebraska. You can see the sandhill cranes from the Platte River. The cranes eat left over corn, wheat, any grains they find left in the fields. They need lots of energy and nutrition to make the long trek north bound. If you have never seen hundreds, thousands (actually it is up to half a million) birds in one place like that it is truly beautiful. I still remember going when I was a child. The time to see the cranes will only … (1 comments)

I am a huge talk radio fan. Since I was little at my grandparents home, I have listened to talk radio and Paul Harvey was a big part of that radio time. My favorite was news and comment, found at 12 p.m. local time. I knew the time was coming when we would not be blessed with his voice as he was not as regular as we would have liked. My thoughts and sympathies go out to the friends and family of Paul Harvey as well to all of those that will miss him on the air waves. It was a pleasure to … (1 comments)
