February Sunrise in Beaverton MI - 02/24/12 08:21 AM
7:42 AM February 22, 2012
Two days ago, the weather was simply amazing. The sunrise was beautiful and birds were chirping. It was warm? Well, if you've been in the cold as long as us, yes, it really was warm!
My daughter came into my room, opened the window and exclaimed what a beautiful day it was! I shared in her enthusiasm and agreed! Although I already knew it was a beautiful day. I had been up for a couple hours. And spending some of it with her and my daughter-in-law and grandbabies made it even more beautiful....

See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...we need silence to be able to touch souls. - Mother Teresa
http://www.heartsandminds.org/quotes/nature.htm
Communication is key in many professions, including real estate.
However, silence is also important in our lives.
My husband has a couple of favorite tv sitcom series. They would be REBA and HOME IMPROVEMENT. Fortunately, since he plays them over and over, I like and enjoy them as well.

Fire in the sky - 02/17/12 10:38 AM
It was real near six o clock pm on Thursday.
Approaching the corner of Estey Road on Wieman.
The sun was low in the sky and became a huge ball of brightness.
Remembering how taking the picture of the sun ruined my husbands camera on his phone, I turned to the left, which was South. So the photo is facing the South West. And the clouds are illuminated by the sun....
Let there be light.... it soon disappeared and it was night.
It's now a beautiful sunny cold day in Beaverton MI.

Is it the Darkest Hour just before Dawn? - 02/17/12 10:31 AM
It's Morning
Will be the title or part of a title of a blog I will soon post.
These words
It's Morning
Made me think of the quote
It's darkest just before dawn
and wonder what it means
and if it is true.
It seems that it may or may not be.
Of course I googled it and went to Ask.com to clear this up for me:
Darkest before the dawn
In nature, it’s not correct. In our lives, even troubled lives, it can be correct....
The darkest time of the night is whenever the moon's not out.
Here's the … (2 comments)

To catch lots of fish - 02/11/12 12:28 PM
To Catch lots of fish, you must first go to the water
http://www.heartsandminds.org/quotes/action.htm
Ok, we are realtors, not fisherman....
However, the phrase still applies.
Your fish may be the buyers and sellers out there, and just like fish, there are all kinds.
The water is out there! The internet, the office, "farming", the newspaper, the grocery store....
Walk the walk, talk the talk.....
Let's go fishing.
Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little.

Super Bowl 2012 - 02/06/12 06:20 AM
Happy Super Bowl!
It certainly was a great game this year.
Went to our son and daughter-in-laws like we usually do to watch the game and enjoy some snacks. It's always a joy to see the two grandbabies! And they had a friend there with the tiniest cutest little baby boy you ever saw!
Yes, I saw that great catch in the second quarter.
I missed the beginning of Century21's commercial: Faster - Bolder ....... guess I missed the end too!
I didn't win or lose any money this year.
Both my son and ex-maybe-in-law were rooting for the Giants!

Wintery photos in Beaverton MI - 02/02/12 04:04 PM
It really is winter here in Beaverton MI.
Even though I think we have had less snow than normal and higher than usual temperatures.
Some days are white and grey all day, like Monday of this week was.
Other days are sunny and I saw a couple of flocks of geese fly over the office today.
They were heading North East. They must have decided to stay here for the winter!
Any way, whether it's warm or cold for you
Happy Ground Hogs Day!

Home Sellers Take A Walk! - 02/01/12 08:05 AM
This is a REBLOG written by another of my favorites.
Anna 'Banana' Kruchten - Phoenix Short Sale Broker of Phoenix, AZ
Phoenix Property Shoppe
Buyers really do need a private showing. And while it is true, the seller does know much more about the property and home than anyone else, if the buyer is not truly interested the valuable information shared is irrelevant. Even as an agent there are times to back off a little giving the buyers a chance to visualize and picture themselves in the home...... It all starts with a dream.... a vision.... Right!
