professionals: Boise, ID Home Becomes "The Neighborhood Crown Jewel!"
- 07/16/08 01:37 PM
Throughout my life I have been passionate about Color! It has been fascinating to see how people react to color so differently. It can sometimes give us energy or deplete us of our energy. Color is so powerful! One Day Redesigns offers homeowners personalized Certified Dewey Color Consultations. It is one of my favorite things that I do. It is very rewarding to make such an impact on homeowners with dramatic Color changes! Recently, I was asked to speak for PERSI, the Public Employee Retirement System of Idaho. A week later, one of their employees called me about doing an Exterior Color Consultation … (23 comments)
professionals: An Idahoan's View of Downtown Denver, CO!
- 07/15/08 01:36 PM
We recently visited Denver, CO and saw parts of the city. We had only flown through Denver, but we wanted to take some time to see the city even. As Realtors, Home Stagers and professionals it is good to make time to visit a city for at least one extra day even though you may go for business. I am always intrigued on the various architecture and the downtown of cities we visit.
From my viewpoint, Denver looked pretty progressive and mixed the old and new architecture in a very unique way. I had never seen such variety in the city building … (9 comments)

professionals: A Significant Once in a Lifetime Birthday!
- 07/08/08 06:25 AM
Today is a special day for me. I was born on July 8, 1954. That is exactly 54 years ago today! I have been intrigued and inspired by the numbers of 1954 and being 54 today. I started thinking about it and realized it will only happen once in my lifetime. I don't know if you noticed when your birth year and actual years matched or not. Have you experienced this yet? However, for some reason I think it is special and I thought about my life and my future this year. For some reason I feel it is going to … (14 comments)

professionals: You are invited to take a Refreshing Walk near the Boise River!
- 06/30/08 10:23 AM
I thought it would be a great idea to take some pictures on our family week around our beautiful neighborhood. Thankfulness and gratitude swell in our hearts as we take this family walk. Walking is a great time to catch up with uninterrupted family talk, questions and good old fashioned fun. Of course the side benefit is also getting healthier with each walk we take. The story of our house was such a miraculous event that I never tire of walking up with thankfulness for our home and the beautiful neighborhood we live in. I looked at 150 homes before we … (6 comments)
professionals: What kind of bird songs do you sing?
- 06/27/08 04:50 PM
We have a new set of evening song birds playing their nightly concert. Perhaps this bird is a night owl, but it sounds just like a day bird, whatever that may be called. My husband just arrived into town and I figure if this "City Girl" has a question about nature, she just asks her husband, Dan about it. Especially, since he has an undergraduate degree in Wildlife Fisheries Resources. He listened and he said that is probably a "Dickie Bird". Well, of course, why didn't I know that? I thought maybe the bird was a dysfunctional bird or maybe he got his days and … (11 comments)
professionals: What kind of Business Cell Phone Etiquette do you have?
- 06/27/08 12:54 PM
Isn't it amazing how much cells phones affect so many parts of our lives? Cell phones have really changed our lives haven't they? My husband was gone for two weeks to complete his last Doctoral module in Southern California. He would call every morning and then in the evenings. It is important to check in with each other especially during our time of traveling to make sure to keep our family life going and keep the communication lines open for all. My son and I were home running the business. We put the cell phone on the "speaker mode" and continued our various activities … (21 comments)

professionals: Dick Woodworth, A Father that made a difference around the world!
- 06/13/08 09:28 AM
Since, it is Father's Day weekend, I would like to honor my late Father-in-law, J.R. "Dick" Woodworth. Most of us come from dysfunctional families. However, I am grateful that there are surrogate family members that come into our lives that help to fill in some of those gaps. My father-in-law and I had a very special and unique relationship. Of all of the family members, he was the one showed me the most unconditional love. I am very grateful for that. It did not matter how well I performed. He thought I was great all of the time. He was one … (6 comments)
