Yard Sales:

It looked like the neighborhood yard sale was a success! Some of you put it away early, but with it being so hot I understand. I hope you all had good luck in selling your extras. We will be having another yard sale hopefully at the end of summer for those of you who didn't have a chance to put one together like me!

Wow the 31st of May is today!

This is the kids last week of school! Congrats for a long year being just about done.

Thanks to everyone for keeping your trash cans picked up. It helps to keep the streets looking neater!

I need some opinions as to why people seem to be so cranky and awnry lately?

Quote for the Day

We are inclined to believe those whom we do not know because they have never deceived us. Samuel Johnson

Money Savings Tip

Take public transportation. If the city’s transit system is available near you, take it to work (or to play) instead of driving your car. It’s far cheaper and you don’t have to worry about parking your vehicle.

Congrats Norma for winning another term as Mayor!

Our Pokeeno group that we enjoy the second Wednesday of each month here in our neighborhood is in need of people to play. We have a lot of people who have played, but have been busy or just dropped out, so we need a couple of more ladies. Email us if you are interested. It is fun!

Remember our Neighborhood Yard Sale is the 30th of this month!

Once again, I see people that are driving faster than you are supposed to here in the neighborhood. Please slow down!

Remember tomorrow is Friday! Remember all papers and catalogs are being collected at NeSmith Elementary to help raise money. Please take just those items up there for recycling.

The front island looks great who ever mowed it. Anyone interested in secretly getting rid of that Classic Homes sign up front. It looks hideous!

Please keep patient with neighbors yards being mowed right now. My yard is going to take at least a week to even be able to get a lawn mower out on it because of it being drenched in water.

Freebies for the Day

Get a free Kellog's All-Bran Promise Pack that samples and coupons. Your Promise Pack will include: Strawberry Medley cereal sample, Strawberry Drizzle Fiber bar, Red Raspberry Fiber drink mix, and coupons (total value of $4 in savings). I had to register for an "All-K Pass" in order to request this sample, but it was easy to do. You can expect to receive your Promise Pack in 4 to 6 weeks.

Get a free sample of Bodycology hand soap, lotion, and mist in either Uplifting Coconut Lime (my pick) or Cozy Brown Sugar Vanilla

Money Savings Tip

Dig into your community calendar. There are often tons of free events going on in your town that you don’t even know about. Stop by the local library or by city hall and ask how you can get ahold of a listing of upcoming community events, and make an effort to hit the interesting ones. You can often get free meals, free entertainment, and free stuff just by paying attention - even better, you’ll get in touch with what’s going on around you.

Happy Mother's Day!

I should know this, but haven't found out yet. Has Mayor Martin won the race yesterday?

Saturday, May 9, 2009

Election Day is today! Make sure you get out and vote! Mayor Norma needs all of our votes.

Don't forget Mother's Day tomorrow!

Also remember our community yard sale is the 30th of this month! Start getting ready.

Freebie for the Day for all of you Sonic Lovers!

Get a coupon for a free CroisSonic Breakfast Sandwich with any large drink purchase. I just printed my coupon and it doesn't expire until May 18. Please note that you can't use the coupon during the afternoon "Happy Hour" when drinks are half-price.

Is anyone still watching this blog? I have had no comments in quite a long time! Comment or send me an email if you would!

Sunday, May 3, 2009

Mother's Day is in exactly one week! Don't forget to get her a card if nothing else! These should be in the mail no later than Wednesday if you're mailing them any where in the US.

Sorry I haven't got a sign out to let everyone know of the upcoming neighborhood yard sale this month on the 30th. The rain has been a bit of an issue with putting out a sign!

Is it possible for anyone to take a lawnmower up to the front and mow the yard of the people who moved out when the ground dries up a little bit?

Remember to vote on or before May 9th! There are a lot of wonderful people running for office. Our Mayor Norma needs to stay in office. Nina Stork and Damon Sams needs to stay on for our school board; they're great people! Go Vote!
