My Life As The Repo Man. - 04/23/08 12:57 AM
You know the saying, "Be Careful What You Wish For"?  Well, I'm certainly well acquainted with it now.  Even though I've been in the real estate business for 11 years now, being a Realtor was not my dream career.  I've always had a really weird sense of adventure and quite a mischevious streak.  I have wanted to be the Repo Man since I was about 18 years old.  (I'm not going to tell my age but let's say that was a couple of decades ago.)  Think about - You have to track folks down who are running from you day and … (21 comments)

As most parents know, now is the time to find a summer program for your school age children.  You definitely want to find a facility that you are comfortable with and register before school gets out for the summer.  The best places fill up quickly and nobody wants to be a waiting list.  Last year was my daughter Ryane's (sounds like a boy's name Ryan) first year in the Murfreesboro TN Parks and Recreation Summer Camp program.  She loved it and I was very happy with it as well.  The program was very reasonably priced, especially for an entire summer program … (0 comments)
