On the way to the office 5/22/12

Marilyn Harrell (ReMax Riverhaven) — Thu, 24 May 2012 14:06:21 -0700

I just had to snap a photo, not the best I know, of this turtle.

I was on my way out of our private road / driveway and there he or maybe she was.

As I stopped to take the picture, the owners of the residence were also discovering the turtle.

I continued on out the drive and I am confident the turtle went home safely....

Home made bug repellent

Marilyn Harrell (ReMax Riverhaven) — Thu, 24 May 2012 12:47:10 -0700

This was originally shared by

Diane Daley of Caron's Gateway Real Estate in

Northumberland, NH

Looking forward to trying this to see how well it works. I remember years ago putting Skin So Soft, an Avon product on my children when they were little.

Via Caron's Gateway Real Estate:

Bug season is officially here in the north country. When the sun starts to wane for the day they come out in multi swarms. Bug repel can get costly and most is not that effective. Try this: Everybody likes the smell of Vanilla, Everybody but bugs. dilute 1 Tablespoon of Vanilla extract with 1 cup of water and wipe the mixture on your exposed skin to discourage those pesky mosquitoes, black-flies and ticks.

Enjoy the outdoors, don't get eaten alive!

Owning a Home after Foreclosure

Marilyn Harrell (ReMax Riverhaven) — Thu, 17 May 2012 12:05:04 -0700

In the past several years, many hard working people have encountered unforeseen and undesirable events that have caused them to lose their home either through foreclosure or short sale. Others have had circumstances that required them to file for bankruptcy.

If you are one of these people, there is hope out there to own a home.

I changed my mind

Marilyn Harrell (ReMax Riverhaven) — Wed, 02 May 2012 11:03:33 -0700

The most fun I have had all week has been attending the Preschool Graduation for my precious three year old grand daughter. I totally enjoyed myself and even laughed out loud. This little skit was hilarious.....

Five monkeys jumping on the bed

One fell off and bumped their head.

Called the doctor and the doctor said

NO MORE MONKEYS JUMPING ON THE BED !!

And when it was time for the diplomas to be handed out, the teacher called each student by name one by one. They had the cutest little hats and after receiving their diploma the teacher had them turn around and pose for a picture, then she asked them to tell us their parents name and then asked them what they wanted to be when they grew up.

Most of the girls want to be princesses when they grow up, including my sweet 3 year old granddaughter Alivia.

Miss Jeanne, the teacher then asked Alivia,

"what did you tell me this morning?"

Alivia: I changed my mind.

Miss Jeanne: Yes, but what did you tell me?

Alivia: A football player

She is so cute and so sweet. I just love her to pieces.

She is my reason for living....

my reason to smile, my reason to laugh.

And I am pretty sure she loves me too....

10 Great Things To Do When you Move Into Your New Home

Marilyn Harrell (ReMax Riverhaven) — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 12:28:56 -0700

I came across this as a reblog by Norma. Written by

Chrissy Doremus ~ U.S. Inspect ~ Home Inspections

Chantilly, VA

This is a good checklist of things to do when that wonderful day comes and you move into your newly purchased home.

Hope this is helpful and informational for you.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Via Chrissy Doremus ~ U.S. Inspect ~ Home Inspections (U.S. Inspect):

Congratulations! You’ve purchased a new home and are all moved in! There’s been a lot to take care of, like emptying boxes, loading up cabinets and drawers, and maybe even painting and decorating, but here are 10 around-the-house tasks you may not have thought of that are essential to starting things off on the right foot when it comes to caring for your new home.

The secret to a well maintained home is to start your maintenance early, ahem, that means now. Now, don't get nervous, it's not all work, work, work. Doing your home maintenance bit by bit is a great way to accomplish it all, but over time so that there's plenty of room for relaxing too. Also, preventative maintenance now, will reduce the liklihood of unwlecome (many times costly) surprises down the road.

Here are ten great things to do when you first move in!

Change the locks, reprogram garage door opener codes, and check that all window locks operate properly. If there's a security system, learn how it operates and sign up for any maintenance or monitoring plans that that yours requires.

Locate emergency shut offs. Know how to shut off the power, water, and gas in your home. Also, know the location of your main and any sub electrical panel boxes.

Create a "fix it" kit. If you don't have one already, buy a toolbox and stock it with all your frequently used home repair tools and supplies. Click here for ideas about what you should include in your kit. Not only is it a good idea to have tools gathered together for home repairs, but it's also important to have first aid supplies on hand too. We think it's a great idea to combine the two and have a small first aid kit within your toolbox--that way, if injuries do occur, you won't have far to go in order to properly tend to them.

Service smoke alarms and CO monitors. Smoke alarms and CO monitors need fresh batteries twice annually and full replacement regularly in order to function properly. (Replace smoke alarms, minimum every 8-10 years, and CO monitors minimum every 5 years) Since you may not know the exact age of the devices and batteries in your new home, it's a great idea to start fresh. Learn more about how often batteries and devices should be change (as well as some additional fire prevention tips) here.

Perform necessary seasonal maintenance. Winter, spring, summer, or fall, there are tasks around the home that, when completed, help the whole season run more smoothly. Get your checklists here, and be off to a great start no matter what time of year you move.

Change filters in your HVAC system. This will not only help clear out all the dust that’s been kicked up during the move, but a clean filter also helps your system function more efficiently and extends its lifespan.

Check pilot lights. Check pilot lights on stove, water heater, gas fireplace, and furnace.

Be sure that hazardous items are stowed away safely (that includes cans of paint). Flammable substances should be kept away from pilot lights, stoves, or water heaters (don’t forget gas dryers). Also, be sure that you are aware of and have identified any substances left behind by the previous owner.

Learn how to operate and properly maintain any items in the home that are new to you like appliances, fireplaces, the septic tank, garbage disposal, hot tub, etc. You may be unaware of vitally important operation or care instructions that are necessary for proper function and safety. If you don’t have manufacturer owner’s manuals, look them up. Virtually any product manual out there can be downloaded right from the Internet.

Address the items mentioned in your home inspection report. You may have already addressed big issues, but did your inspector mention any necessary maintenance or smaller repairs that would be necessary upon moving in? That's now! Remember that proactively caring for your home with maintenance and service is the primary way to prevent unwelcome surprises down the road. Reread your report and don’t hesitate to call your inspector to clarify his recommendations or to answer any questions you may have.

Friday Funnies on Saturday

Marilyn Harrell (ReMax Riverhaven) — Sat, 14 Apr 2012 11:59:12 -0700

Friday my husband (his name is Tom) and I ran some errands together. While we were out and about we swung into my daughter's salon.

Stylistics.

http://www.facebook.com/Stylistics3394

She is busy with a customer, but not too busy for just a little conversation and a few laughs.....

Tom: I put a battery in the scales.

Chelly: Oh, nice.

Tom: Yeah, I stepped on them and they said "One person only please"

Chelly: LOL - HAHAHA

Tom: Yeah your mom stepped on them and they said "Is anybody there?"

We all agreed: Everyone should have "Talking Scales"

Tom: There are two potatoes standing on the corner. How do you know which one is the prositute?

Chelly: ?

Tom: The one with the tatoo that says IDAHO

Yes - He is just a stand up comic some days.....

Community

The term community has two distinct meanings: 1) A group of interacting people, living in some proximity (i.e., in space, time, or relationship). Community usually refers to a social unit larger than a household that shares common values and has social cohesion. The term can also refer to the national community or international community, and, 2) in biology, a community is a group of interacting living organisms sharing a populated environment.

1986 study, McMillan and Chavis identify four elements of "sense of community": 1) membership, 2) influence, 3) integration and fulfillment of needs, and 4) shared emotional connection.

You Become Who You Surround Yourself With

This is a reblog that I am sure many of you will relate with. Wonderfully written by

Gary Woltal - Assoc. Broker REALTOR® SFR Dallas Ft. Worth

Flower Mound, TX Keller Williams Realty.

Gary writes with style and throws in just a little humor which I enjoy. Be sure to visit his site for interesting and informational reading and learning.

I especially enjoyed the point he makes about wrestling with a pig, and if you do expect to get dirty!

The main point of course Choose People Wisely!

Via Gary Woltal - Assoc. Broker REALTOR® SFR Dallas Ft. Worth (Keller Williams Realty):

A life lesson I have talked about before with raising strong character children concerns observing who their friends and playmates are and making sure they are good ones cause they rub off on them. I wanted to address this again from an adult perspective in our business and personal lives cause so many adults I see around MISS THIS POINT:

You Become Who You Surround Yourself With

Why is this important? Cause if we don't do the INNER WORK first and know who we are with our own values and what is truly, truly important to us we set ourselves up for conflict, tension, our other friends leave us, our family raises their eyebrows at us and might even ask us, "what are you thinking?"

In business if you want to sell luxury homes or farm and ranch styles you find those category of buyers or homeowners and go to places that interest them.

With our personal lives if you like loud or obnoxious people you go where it is loud and obnoxious. If you want good hearted people maybe you go where people are doing animal rescues or flea and tick dog dips on Saturdays. Or read bloggers that sound like a perfect match for you : )

Point is, the SIMILARITIES in values is what will give you a peaceful heart.

On the bad side or the good side... you can't wrestle with a pig and not expect to get mud on you OR ...the fragrance always remains in the hand that gives the rose. CHOOSE PEOPLE WISELY.
