Well I am writing this blog because of Ken Tracy of Naperville, IL. I read his blog about people meeting people again on the Internet from the past. Also I do believe People should know who they are working with. So here we go. Who I am..I was born in Steger Illinois as Paula Fowler, I went to school in Steger and then went to High School in Chicago Heights IL. I will not tell you how old I am but I will say I have been around for a while. Old enough to know better and old enough to do it anyway and get it way with it, hahaha.  After graduation I got married and like many others after 26 years divorced, rough time in my life, but shortly after that I meet the man of my dreams. Funny thing is he and I had grown up together many years before in Cedar Lake, IN. See my family had a second h... 10/01/2008

Hello I am going to tell a story about a business in our town and how sucessfull it has been over decades of time. In Cedar Lake we have a Tire Shop called TJT Tire. This business has been around for over 35 years. One of the employees that has worked at the shop for 35 years is now retireing from there.Some of you may know that Cedar Lake was a very small town until about 5 years ago and it started growing and we still are! My feelings on this is that this is a great accomplishment for this Tire Shop. Family owned and they are paying for this mans retirement. Now that my dear folks is Success. Congradulations to the owner of TJT Tire. What a Great Job you have done serving this community..Your employee will be missed.   Keep up the good work From all of us at Astro Realty and Kleen Sweep 09/10/2008
