Today is the middle of the first work week in 2009! I bet you are wondering if I'm keeping up with my new goals....well I did kick off the week running! I got 9+ miles in between Monday and Tuesday. Now I walk like I'm 800 years old. Got over heated on Monday and had a headache all day. Not h

Today is the day to sit down and WRITE your goals for 2009. I'm willing to bet that most of you have never tried this technique. Would you believe that you have a much great chance to meet that goal just by writing it down. Sharing your goal with someone also gives you a better chance to have

I just want to say that the media has totally got the world by the ear (or other body part, your choice). Yes, I would like to make it through the day without feeling like the sky is falling, without hearing that the sky is falling (and how quick). Did you know that consumers are calling to inqui

Our area has been hit this year with several disasters. We got the announcement that the plant would close in 2010 sometime in May. Then we lived through a devastating flood that consumed a large part of our city and county. In late summer, the GM announcement came that the closing would be mo

Would you believe I had a closing this week with a buyer who never physically looked at the inside of the home? Huh? This buyer had been in an accident and was physically disabled. She was unable to get inside the house. Her husband went through and said it looked exactly like the virtual tour t
