Directory Site


In the quest to give you, my readers, some great new sites to check out...

I was given the opportunity to write a review of the directory site, ClickSmart. From what I can tell, this is a fairly new site. There aren't tons of listings on it, especially for MI.

However, if you (or someone you love) are looking for realtors in Miami, FL, you might just find what you're looking for. From what I can tell, the companies listed on this site are pre-screened to weed out any potential scammers.

There are several categories of businesses you can choose from, and you can search by zip code or city/state. What I like is that you get to see a photo of the person you will be contacting, and all of their contact information is easy to find. There is also a brief description of the company/individual listed.

I think this could be a beneficial site, both for businesses and individuals to use. So, if you know anyone who is looking to buy real estate in Miami, FL, and doesn't have a realtor, encourage him/her to check out this site: miami realtor and find one today.

So many posts, so little time...

Since you've all missed me SOOOO much over the last few weeks, I've decided to just overload you with posts! ha ha ha

The girls seem like they are growing by leaps and bounds! I can't believe all of the new words The Jib says now. She's SO funny - especially since all of her words that end in an "s" sound she uses a "t" sound, and when she says "yes", she bobs her head up and down and just says "S-s-s-s-s-s-" (I guess it would be better if I had it on film, but my mother in law has the video camera. I should get that back from her)

Puckey is doing well with the potty training. Last night she actually pooped on the potty, and then told me, "I pooped big just like Daddy!" Ande got a laugh out of that one.

Bubber has his second football game on Thursday. I'm still trying to figure out if I'm going to go. I may have to ask my mother in law if she can babysit the girls, so I don't have to wrangle them on the bleachers (not to mention the fact that I'd probably get charged to bring them in...)

Bug is looking forward to starting band. She will be playing clarinet this year. I hope she enjoys it - music is such a fun thing to learn. I actually had a dream that she was in marching band, and I was helping teach the kids how to march. (I was in marching band in high school) It was a little weird.

Nans started at her new school yesterday, and she said she liked it pretty well. I think she'll do fine once she makes a couple of new friends. We still haven't worked out how we are going to make the pick-up on our weekends. I used to pick her up from school on our weekends, but that's not really going to work out anymore.

I'm finally getting baptized on Saturday. I don't know what's taken me so long (I gave my life to Christ over 6 years ago), but I'm excited about it, and am thrilled that Bubber and Bug will get to be there too. It's going to be fun, too, since it's at our Pastor's house, and we're having a picnic/pool party afterwards. Hopefully the weather will hold out for us.

My brother in law interviewed for a job here in MI yesterday, but he's not sure if he's going to take it. It would be a pretty big pay cut for him, so I think he's thinking it over. As much as I'd love for them to move here, I'd hate for him to take the job and then have a hard time financially. (It's not that the pay is really that bad, but they're used to living on a lot more)

Well, I guess that's it for now. I'll probably post at least once or twice more today (aren't you lucky?).

For now, it's back to the grind...LOL

School days

So, school started yesterday, and the kids were (less than) thrilled. I didn't see Bubber after school, so I called him at his dad's last night. Let's just say, this may be a rough school year.

Bug seemed fairly happy with her teachers, and some of her friends are in her classes (which was a big worry to her). I think she'll do fine.

Poor Puckey and The Jib miss their siblings, though!!
