This morning I begin my career at my new brokerage, Old Colony. It’s located in Hurricane along Teays Valley Road, a nice, big building but bursting at the seams with agents. Good thing I’m not claustrophobic! Old Colony has a higher market share than any other brokerage in our area, and I be...

On the news this morning I kept hearing how having overweight friends make you fat. Horsehockey. :oP I do believe that you take on bits of the people that you allow to get close to you, don’t get me wrong. I have a few friends and family members that could stand to lose a few pounds, but I don...

Supposedly, I’m on vacation. Yesterday I got a phone call from Melissa Nottingham as I was walking down a hotel corridor, suitcase in hand. She knew I was going on vacation soon, but was sure I hadn’t left yet because I had been commenting on her posts. Well, yeah – laptop, hotel wifi – the w...

My little sister in law got married on Saturday. She had my whole family involved in her wedding, and we were so proud to be there with her! I’ve known Alison since she was five or six. The first time I met her she crawled into my lap and showed me everything she wanted out of a Christmas catalo...

Last night, one of our West Virginia State Troopers shot himself. He was stationed here in Putnam County. I don’t know how to get across to you how that makes me feel. I knew him a little, but he wasn’t a close friend. But he was a Trooper. He was someone who would lay down his life for any o...

Yesterday I got a phone call from Scott Edwards, the new mayor of Hurricane. Apparently I'm not the only person who uses Google Alerts, and Scott’s name popped up on The Putnam Scoop, my new local blog. I’d written a little reminder about that whole dog limit law issue. (I’m not a fan.) Scot...
