We are supposed to blog about our KEYWORDS.  My keywords are Indianapolis, Indiana, Marion County Indiana, New Palestine, Indiana, and all my wonderful surrounding areas.  But in this case, Indianapolis fell very short of the needs of my family.  I am posting about Mayo Clinic, because it is foremost in my thoughts as I wake each day.  After several months of agony and pain, we, as a family (6 of us) drove to Rochester .  We arrived on a Monday, and called for an appointment late Monday afternoon.  We received that appointment for 9AM the next morning.  Our first appointment was with a Hematologists.  The hematology's department takes the whole floor of the Mayo building, as did the Cardiology Department and the Neurology Department.  The rest of the time was spent taking blood draws, s... 05/24/2011

And it means so much more to those clients we serve each day.  It means having a good place that is secure and a place to raise your children, give them a good education, and have some control over your family life.  It also provides a safe feeling for both parents and children.  There is something to be said for owning it, even if it is with the bank. You can have pets of all sizes and shapes, you can plant a garden, fence your yard, add a room, and do most anything that you desire.(xcept for the HOA).  Most of us have rented at one time or another.  Apartment living is not for families, pets or freedom.  Renting a home from a landlord will be almost as restrictive.  You cannot paint, put in a garden or have a dog over 50 lbs, and not a lot of kids.  The only advantage is if something ... 05/23/2011

Today, I am holding an open house at 278 Bear Hollow Way, Indianapolis, Indiana.  Stop by if you can!  Just what is an open house?  It is an : Opportunity - to go fish....See the people. Opportunity - find a buyer. Opportunity - to solve a sellers problem Opportunity - sell your own listing. Opportunity - place a sign on corners for all to see for 3 days. Opportunity - to show the neighbors that I work hard for my seller. Opportunity - to get lesser priced listings, who may want to buy my listing.
