Wow! I wrote absolutely nothing last week – and I really had a lot of great ideas to speak to, too. But I did set a new record for me – I wrote three offers and they were all accepted! I also received an offer on a listing, but we’re still negotiating that, so I don’t know if that will pan out.
First off – what a great idea this is! GOOG-411, using Google to help you find what you’re looking for from your phone – FREE!
Okay – if your family is rapidly expanding, or you need to buy a new dining room table but you might be moving to a new house with a smaller (or larger) dining room, OR if you have dinner parties, this is the piece of furniture for you!
I got so excited when I stumbled across this info about free movies during the summer. Until I saw that no one local offers it 🙁. Thanks to reader Aaron Plummer, I noticed that the Columbia Center Regal Cinemas DO have selected free movies from Tuesday-Thursday. How cool! And, because I know people in other parts of the country read this blog (either because they used to live here and miss it, or because they’re thinking of moving to Tri-Cities, WA ), I linked to the site that covers the country!
When I was in college, I told a friend, “You know, I don’t understand what the deal is about giving prisoners bread and water. I LIKE bread and I LIKE water. I could live quite happily on those.”
My friend looked at me and said, “Cari, it’s not like they’re piping hot loaves fresh from the oven served with pats of fresh, creamy butter, and the water isn’t served in an icy goblet. It’s stale bread and dirty water!”
Ever since then, people drinking dirty water has been something that makes me very sad. Recently, lots of people have been raising money in order for people to have clean water in Africa, like these kids in Pasco. Way to go, kids!
And I love this! The Tri-Cities is still small enough that we get excited when we get international attention (i.e., Kennewick Man) and this inclusion on to the menu for Holland America Cruise Lines is really cool! Way to go local vintners!
I’ll try to write more this week than last. Have a great one!
