Blogging from my heart in Boise, Idaho & Realtor® Keller Williams Realty Boise
I had writers block this week! So much so that this blog post has been sitting in MS Word on my taskbar all week. Avoidance much? For those of you that know me well, you would be as surprised as I was earlier this week. November 4th would have been Paul’s birthday. Which is a... Continue Reading →
For years, my morning hikes have become a gift to myself of a way to reset my head and get ready, mentally, for the day ahead. Ever since I moved to Boise in 1997, I have been fortunate to have lived by an area to take my walks or hikes in solitude. In the past... Continue Reading →

In fact, the western meadowlarks have been long gone by now. It seems early to be migration time. The only... Continue Reading →
I haven’t written for a few weeks; I suppose the news is finally getting to me. I am at a loss as to why our elected officials cannot find a way to make it safer when it comes to background checks for purchasing a gun or firearm. Over 70% of Americans are just as tired... Continue Reading →
I have been a stress case lately. All sorts of reasons. The real estate market is amped up and whipped into a daily frenzy. My cardiologist is putting me through the ringer with tests that are difficult to dismiss. I have such full days I cannot find time to clean my own home or do... Continue Reading →
