Links Back to the Week That Was 6/8

Another fun week, weather-wise…um, not really. I wore a cap-sleeved light-weight shirt and long pants to work on Thursday and about froze between the wind and rain that was prevalent. Saturday I wore a skirt and another short-sleeved top to a wedding (congrats, Nick and Amanda!) and was too warm! Doesn’t Mother Nature READ?

I’m not a huge fan of bugs and insects and other pests. I am also not a fan of chemicals that might do more harm than good. Soooo, if you have an infestation in your home, check these tips out before you call the exterminator.

Oh. My. Gosh. THIS guy needs to be institutionalized. Seriously, seriously I almost couldn’t watch.

Oooooooooh – I love it when houses sell for a ton of money. I think it’s because the house where I grew up, in Hacienda Heights, California, is now worth about $500,000. Here’s the thing – I grew up in that house, there’s no way I grew up in a half-millon dollar home! But it’s all about location, and I know for my childhood home, the value is there because of its proximity to LA. This house, in London, is reputed to be the largest single home purchase in THE WORLD, if it goes through. Wow!

A ton of home local homes have ceiling fans. Did you know there is a right and wrong way to work your fan? Apparently there is – and the Consumerist helps us out.

And you know what? That’s it! Have a great week!

My husband and I came to the Tri-Cities in 1994, and we thought it would be a temporary stop on our way to larger cities. He was a television sports anchor at the time, and we planned to go wherever the "next step up" took us. Twenty-plus years later, we're still here and we've loved every minute of it! We have two children now, and we've found the Tri-Cities area is a wonderful place to raise a family. It's a great place to do outdoorsy things -- I like to hike Badger Mountain or run along the river path. I also love reading ... by a cozy fire in the winter or a beautiful picture window in the summer (with the A/C on!). I've been a licensed Realtor since 2004. I earned my managing broker's license in 2016, which means I can run my own brokerage, or create a team of real estate agents and supervise them, which is exactly what I did when I formed the Cari McGee Real Estate Team in 2018! We have administrative and marketing personnel, as well as additional agents to serve you. I became a director of the Tri-Cities Association of Realtors Board of Directors in 2016, became Secretary/Treasurer of the organization, and was elected to Vice President in 2019.
