MIND YOUR MOM

Just about every May I sit down to write Homeward Bound; I write about Mom's Day. And why not... it is a very special day for very special people.
My mom used to tell me, seemingly repeatedly, to do this and do that, not to do this and not to do that. ALL, I recall, very valuable advice. Looking back on it all these many years later, I can say she was, and still is, a very wise woman.
Time reveals, in fact, just about every caring Mother is a Wise Woman. I can see why we carve out a special day each year to acknowledge Moms. So here is a shout out to all Moms  - Happy Mother's Day!!
My Mother's Birthday is May 10 which somehow seems to fall on or very close to Mother's Day each year. So, she gets double the hugs and appropriate accolades evert May from my Sister and me.
Unfortunately, My Mom's Mom is no longer here. I am sure that makes her very sad this time of year. I am sure some reading this can relate and ha ...

GIVE ME 30 Seconds AND WE'LL SAVE a Kid's Life Together...
Welcome to the month of April. By the time you are reading this, you will be deep into it. That means I can't play any April Fool jokes on you. Never been a fan of those anyway. When I was kid, my favorite radio station 96 Rock announced they were going to be changing formats and playing elevator music and for half the day they did that, only to announce it was a big April Fool's Joke.
Another BIG deal in April is TAX day! Yep! Deadlines for filing those personal income tax returns. I don't think most people mind paying taxes as long as they are being put to good use. I think it's the waste that bothers most us citizens.
Both days I mention above are for sure conversation starters, one full of funny stories, the other maybe not so much, but there are few days more memorable than the day you buy your dream home. That day is supposed to be fun, exciting and great feeling of accom ...

Who Cares if the Groundhog got it right, Spring is STILL Coming! I promise

Spring is Springing! Yay! I just came inside from shooting a video outside and WOW! It's nice out! Yes I realize that when you get this and read it that it could be cold and rainy, but those cold days are just about over. Everyone loves Spring, primarily because it means... summer is near!
For many across this great country though, it's still COLD, grey, and snowy! one thing is for sure, this winter season is coming to an end. It does every year without fail.
Just  like the weather seasons come and go, so do the seasons of life. I just turned 51, my youngest is in college, and my oldest is off figuring out work and life. Are you with me when I say that these seasons seem to come and go faster as well as the time? My wife reminded me last night we have shared 38 of my birthdays together. Some of life's seasons will be HOT and others will be COLD, some high a ...

The LOVE Doctor is in...

Not that I am the Dr. of Love or anything like that... But then again, most probably like to believe they are. After all - Love is a many splendid thing. When my wife and I were planning our wedding back in 1989 she suggested we reveal to all in attendance words that would convey our LOVE for each other.
My favorite Love Description is from 1 corinthians 13: Love is patient, love is kind. It does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres.
It doesn't matter your ´religious persuasion´ to say “yea, that IS a great description of LOVE”. I am talking LOVE because February is the Love month, rightly celebrated with Valentines's Day.
I could go on with all kinds of examples lika ...

Exciting NEW YEAR'S Resolution

As a fellow Lover of Holiday Time, I wanted to share with you some exciting news for the New Year.
It seems most people establish New Year's resolutions, but for whatever reason they fall short of keeping them. Each year I highlight a great book that helped me and my team dramatically improve our follow through on achieving important goals and I wanted to share that with you - as sort of a Happy New Year After Christmas Gift; more on the book in a moment.
Some of your friends, neighbors, associates or relatives may have a New Year's resolution to make a move. Well we can help them with that, help you and help the kids at Loma Linda Children's Hospital the same time.
HAVING PEACE OF MIND AND GETTING TOP DOLLAR FOR YOUR HOME. EXPERIENCE COUNTS!
As a result of working with over hundreds of families, we have developed a special market-proof program to quickly get an acceptable “cash&rdq ...
