Welcome!
I hope you have had a good week. It was a week of problem solving for me - quite a number of problems. I'm feeling a little wrung out. John and I are going to meet with some friends and neighbors up at the Clubhouse for dinner tonight. I am very much looking forward to the visit. My neice (Elizabeth Dorothy - goes by Lizzy) is defending her Doctoral Thesis in ancient Greek and Latin Poetry. John is zooming in to listen. We are all very proud of her achieving this milestone in her life. She is a little frazzled with having to go out from her comfortable situation and find a job now that she is actually graduating. It reminds me a bit of those movies with Noah Wyle, The Librarian.
I do not have phone duty this weekend, but you can always reach me should you need me to help with your Real Estate needs. At the bottom of the page I copied in some Market indicator data from the Georgia Association of Realtors Newsletter I thought might be of interest.
As always, if you know of any news you would like me to add to this newsletter, but let me know. The more the merrier.
Fun things going on:
