Clearing and Cleaning, or, Fall Feng Shui - 11/20/09 01:11 PM
Most of us always think of the major home overhaul as "Spring Cleaning," and don't get me wrong, I'm a big spring cleaner. However, something over takes me this time of year and I've come to call it, "Fall Feng Shui," or simply put, the pre-holiday de-clutter ritual.
Whether or not you believe in Feng Shui, the ancient art of placement that our Asian friends have been applying for a couple thousand years, is not the point. In fact, you don't need to know a thing about Feng Shui in order to understand and recognize that the "feeling' of a place … (5 comments)

There is no doubt I learned a lot the past five days. I took a trip down to beautiful San Diego to learn more about how I can help my clients in Sacramento. This real estate convention, hosted by the National Association of Realtors, pulled in about 6,000 Realtors, if you can imagine that. Wow! It was great to see so many pals, both old and new, both those I have known through traditional means and those I have only “met’ via social media outlets.
The classes and the panels were great. I’ve signed up for a “Green” designation so that … (0 comments)
