Sometimes It Just Takes A Little Nerve To Make The First Move!

A few minutes ago I finally got the nerve to call the furniture company that also specializes in flooring! The receptionist immediately redirected me to a salesperson. She was very nice, but then who wouldn't be after they learned what I needed! LOL! She is also an interior decorator! Now, I know... Sign in to see full entry.

My Goodness We Are Getting The Snow Today!

This morning was quite a bit warmer than it has been for some time. I even walked out to the porch in bare feet to get the paper! Then I went to check the mail and my word the driveway and sidewalk was covered with snow! We have to keep the sidewalk clear lest we get a ticket from the 'mayor'! So, I...

I Wonder How Long It Will Take Before The First Game Is Played!

I am so excited that the sides have come to an agreement, although tentative, in the NHL lockout! I was certain the season was lost at the end of December but it seems there will be a shortened season! All along I had envisioned myself as a hold out and would refuse to watch this year! But, I love... Sign in to see full entry.

Another Engagement In My Family! My 'Rug Rats' Are Making Me Feel Old! LOL!

On December 23 Mik came by to wrap gifts for his girlfriend and to pick up one that I had been storing for him. It was a superb gift! He so makes me proud that he works within in his budget and is not afraid to give something that has been previously owned, but in great condition! He found a sewing... Sign in to see full entry.

HOWDY BLOGIT! GETTING CLOSER TO OWNING A HOME!

I made an offer on a home in Southeast Boise on November 9. It was accepted but there was/is (STILL) a waiting period on the part of the seller's bank to approve the sale! It's a short sale and take my word for it the wait is grueling! I got a call from my agent today and she said that the seller... Sign in to see full entry.

“The only way that we can live, is if we grow. The only way that we can

grow is if we change. The only way that we can change is if we learn. The only way we can learn is if we are exposed.
