Spring is typically the time that I really come alive...and, believe me, being a redhead, at least by nature, I am always alive!  This weekend the man of the house was busy in his workshop making birdhouses which he puts on pitchforks.  I know, it sounds weird but they are very popular for garden...

I ran across a website that absolutely amazed me.  It's called Howcast, http://www.howcast.com/  This little number can give you video on how to throw knives, how to lucid dream, how to change a light switch, how to cut your kid's hair.  While I wouldn't absolutely trust all the information compl...

There will be no more resting in my life.  Between all the social networking sites, my fingers will be the only part of my body to be exercised from here on out.  But, it had to be done.  No one else can promote me the way I can.  So, let the games begin.  I know that it will open up another venu...

I love spring. In Minnesota, we really don't start early...I know most of the country has daffodils and hyacinths. We still have ice on the lakes. Not great ice, mind you, I still see people on nearby lakes out there doing whatever people do on ice.. they scare me to death what with all those cra...

I wish I could do all the fancy things that everyone else does to get their blogs noticed, but I'm too busy to get to it. But, I did have a revelation today. I'm sitting at my computer slogging through yet another BPO on another foreclosure. Very nice house, I might add. In a very upscale neighbo...

Three times this week I have heard from agents and brokers that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac instituted new rules about selling agent commission agreements.  It seems there is some confusion around these parts. Some agents have said that either of these institutions have to honor whatever is writte...

Here we sit in Minnesota...halfway between winter and spring.  Brown, drab, treeless.  But, you can feel it in the air...you can almost smell it...Commission.  I have had a frantic week. And, I am so thankful for the exhaustion and the half-open eyes at nearly 11 pm.  We had St. Patrick's Day (Am...

Amazingly, I received a referral from someone outside the network over the weekend (Utah, by way of California).  I get these from time to time, but this broker actually saw something from the Rain about me on a search engine.  And, admittedly, I should follow up on my leads more often, but more ...

My greatest loss, other than when my mother died, was when my step-father, whom I considered more my father than the man who sired me, passed away.  He died nearly at this time twenty years ago today.  I was the director of the Ceili dancing being performed at the time at the Lake Calhoun Beach C...
