Kindness in The Form of Breakfast - 07/30/11 02:37 AM
It is so nice to be appreciated for all the driving and showing of properties that I have been doing lately.The buyers that I am spending lots of time with realize what it means to pick out properties, call for availability, set the showings, try to figure out the showing time frame and make a showing book for the buyers for their notes. Then of course spending hours showing the properties.  It is fun to give each house a funny name so we can remember which one was which.What I love about the Internet is the buyers can pick out the … (14 comments)

They had to find a way to do it and it often took some time to get the money together … (1 comments)

Sellers Can Also Advertise - 07/20/11 02:11 AM
Sellers Can Also Advertise A ‘For Sale’ sign alone does not guarantee the sale of your real estate property. During good times and bad, you cannot expect to sell property just by putting up a yard sign. A travelling salesman carries his goods from door to door, yet it is not too likely that you’ll travel around with your piece of real estate! The only way you are going to sell it is by letting as many people as possible know that you have a property for sale through advertising. It is important to advertise, but what is more important is … (5 comments)

Why I Love The Rain - 07/15/11 06:56 PM
                APRIL SHOWERS
When April skies begin to frown,
And the cold rain comes pelting down,
We must not grumble nor complain
Nor idly say, we hate the rain.
 
God sends the rain; the dust-y ground
It softens in the fields around;
The moisture every plant receives,
And springs afresh in flowers and leaves.

Should God forbid the showers to fall,
Nor send us any rain at all,
The ground would all grow hard and dry,
And every living plant would die
 
All things would starve and perish then-
No food for birds, … (1 comments)

Meat Glue...What Is It? - 07/11/11 02:44 AM
Have you ever heard of meat glue?? Neither had I until I saw this YouTube video.After seeing this video about meat glue you may want to be a vegetarian. Some meat plants are gluing pieces of scrap meat together and calling them roast, steaks, chicken and fish. What the labels on the packaging are telling you may not be what is in the package. The glue looks toxic and totally unacceptable in my opinion.Take a look for yourself...Meat glue
