You do not have to be a weather person to predict the weather
this time of year. We all know… it is the hottest time of the year. But
that is not all that’s hot. The economy is red hot too. By all measures
the best economy in 20 years or so.
This is GOOD for most reading this, but there will be some
exceptions. There always are. An example could be someone will sell a
house and make out great, meaning a buyer pays a bit more than they
would have not too long ago. And in some areas, the opposite happens.
Seller does not make out that great, but the buyer does.
Most homeowners who do NOT have to sell of course know this
and will hold back on buying or selling. That will of course impact supply
and demand. Results right now? RED HOT opportunities!

How often are you really thinking about your home's plumbing? Even though you and your family likely use your bathroom multiple times throughout the day, you probably don't think too much about your water pipes. However, ignoring the plumbing in your home can have serious consequences. Here are several reasons why checking your pipes and plumbing regularly is crucial:

If you have always wanted to live in a bigger home, then you may be wondering when the right time is for you to move. Bigger homes are more expensive and require more maintenance. However, you may be at a point in your life financially where you're ready for a bigger place. Here are several signs that indicate it's time for you to move into a bigger home:
Your Family Is Growing
Your current home may not fit your needs if your family is growing. If you're expecting another child, then you will need a home with extra rooms. You'll also need a home with extra storage space and bathrooms. This can be a very common reason why people seek to upgrade their homes. By checking in your area, you can start to plan your budget even before the birth of your child and make sure that an upgrade is right for you.

We assume the rights of freedom and debate its boundaries in politics, yet
how often do we take time to reflect on what freedom means to us personally?
Freedom is not a concept carved from stone; it is malleable and personal, always
shifting shape depending on where you find yourself standing and the angle of the
slanting light.
My personal definition of freedom is the ability to act based on my convictions
without external restriction or retribution. It is the ability to represent myself as I
see myself to be, not having to hide or disguise who I am in order to pursue
happiness, fulfillment, and growth. It is the power of free self-expression. Personal
freedom is one of my top three values.
Of course, there are boundaries to freedom. My actions should not hurt others or
restrict their personal freedoms, and so this is the dance of conscience. Will what I
want conflict with what others want or need? If so, how can I have the personal
autonomy I ne; ...
