Ole Glory Coast to Coast June Challenge…A Favorite PlaceThis month’s challenge…Ole’Glory Coast to Coast-June ActiveRain Challenge...has been a fun one and I have a feeling that it also caused many of us to be more aware of the homes and public places around us that proudly display Ole Glory.  When Larry and I returned to the Houston area, we discovered the Fallen Warrior Memorial…not far from where we walk at Kickerillo. The Memorial is dedicated to the more than 600 Texans who gave their lives in the war on terrorism…from the 9/11 attacks to the present.  There is a park adjacent to the Memorial and we often walk through the park and to the Memorial to pay our respects. What I wish I could have picked up in a video are the names of the fallen announced in the background. It has a very ... 06/28/2022

When a friend calls and asks you to help her pick out decorative items for her remodeled Lake House and Bunk House the only answer that comes to mind is “Let’s do it!.” We arrived at the "At Home Store" on time at 11 am and finished at 2:30pm! What a haul but it was fun! She had her iPad with photos of each room so we started at one end of the store and plowed through every isle. We were so excited with what we found, our power shopping was worth it! After finishing up we made it to three boutiques we wanted to check out in the area and scored again!  Casual dinner at the Dahlia Café and we called it a day!“The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when you discover that so... 06/28/2022

If you're like me, you're probably always looking for an easy snack idea. Especially if you're working long hours at home or in the office. Lately, this has been my go-to snack and I'd thought you'd enjoy it too. If you have two minutes you can make this yummy snack. Ingredients Plain rice cake 1-2 tbsp peanut butter 3-4 dried apricots cut in half 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds Directions Spread peanut butter on the rice cake. Add apricot pieces and pumpkin seeds on top. This is pretty filling because the pumpkin seeds and peanut butter are high in protein. Sometimes I even have them for breakfast or lunch too. You can swap the apricots out for your favorite dried fruit, raisins are really good on this as well.   06/28/2022

Motivational Monday…Watch That Knee Do you remember having a physical exam and your doctor tapping just below your knee with a small rubber mallet? They are looking for an involuntary reaction or reflex.    Of course, the doctor makes sure not to be in front of you so they aren’t the recipient of that swift kick.      Today we use the term knee-jerk reaction often when discussing someone’s impulsive response to a situation or comment.    Admittedly, I have been guilty of having knee-jerk reactions. It is something I’m constantly working on.  We have so much information thrown at us these days… false and semi-true, misinformation and fake…conjecture and manipulative…biased and perspective-driven…how are we to know what is real?    And therein lies the rub. So often what we put out there... 06/27/2022

Tonight was a sign of times past.  Times when lowball offers were a common occurrence.  Times when we grew to expect the type of offers we hesitated to present.  But this time, I called my home seller without hesitation.  You see, I knew this 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom totally remodeled home was not worthy of the offer presented.  My 20 years in business tells me that this caller thought he knew the market.  He didn't have an agent representing him. He had bought "100 properties" on his own and didn't need his own agent.  Fine, I thought.  After returning his call, leaving a voicemail, I repeated what I had told him before.  This home has been on the market for 2 days and my sellers will not accept this low offer.  There are other similar listings priced much higher. Are the headlines crea... 06/27/2022
