Watching the Olympic closing ceremony makes me sorry to see the games end. The US Olympians made us all proud to be Americans, and I'm certain the Canadians are very proud of their athletes and the 2010 Olympic Games as well. Congratulations to the Canadian hockey team on their hard fought victor...

Last night I read an entertaining (but educational) little book entitled, Fish! I decided to add this book to my recommended reading list for all those realtors feeling "in the slump." My first book was Somebody Moved the Cheese. Next I read The Secret, followed by The Law of Attraction. These tw...

While on my computer very late Saturday night into very early Sunday morning, I'm watching the Olympic speed skaters racing around the track. I admire their drive, energy, and athleticism.

We periodically have get togethers in our courtyard, at local establishments, and at various neighbors' ho...

Fat Tuesday (Mardi Gras) is this coming Tuesday. It's the last big party before the solemnity of lent, the six weeks leading up to Easter. It's a chance for fun with friends, parties, beads, celebrations, rich foods and cake, parades, and whatever else one chooses as a way to celebrate. Our condo...

In the last week or so, I read a blog post that advocated reading the book, The Energy Bus. It sounded like something I'd like to read, so I went to Barnes and Noble to buy it. Thinking I'd start reading it last night and finish over the weekend, I got cozy on the couch, propped up my feet (in my...

A A while back, I talked about shoes that help those tired realtor feet. I spend a lot of time on my feet, climbing stairs, seeing property, walking wooded lots... you know the routine. At the end of the day, despite wearing flip flops almost all the time, my bunions throb. Recently, I discovered...
