Hello
Everyone!
I want to take
this opportunity to wish all of you the very best this Holiday Season and
happiness in the New Year. Please remember to take the time to enjoy your
friends and family amid all the hustle and bustle. I know we are in difficult
times right now but it's more important than ever to laugh often, hug our kids
and stay positive.
"Life
is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take
our breath away." George
Carlin
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!

Have you ever watched a home staging show on TV and wished your home could
appear clean and uncluttered, too? Here are some suggestions to help you get
started:
1. Lighten up your furniture.
Going neutral isn't just good for walls – it’s good for sofas, too. Beiges and
ivories reflect light instead of absorbing it as darker colors do. The result: a
sense of airiness and peace that makes people want to stay.
2. Enlarging a cramped bedroom.
How? A small lamp and a large mirror can do it. Just hang the mirror on one wall
and plug in the lamp directly across from it. The light will bounce off the
mirror and reflect back, immediately making the room appear larger.
3. Expanding shelf space.
Store half of all personal items and prized possessions in the basement or
garage. Too many knick-knacks can make a room look crowded; plus they make it
harder for a buyer to imagine what his or her items will look like in the space!

It's no
fun to have to replace a broken appliance. Find out how you can get more years
out of your clothes washer and delay the need to replace a little longer.
Soap up smart.
Use no more than 4 Tbsp, soap (1/4 cup) per load. Excess soap makes excess suds,
which can stick to gaskets and moving parts - causing them to deteriorate and
leak.
Extend washer life: 3 to 5 years.
Be leery of the overload.
It's tempting to get as many clothes into the machine as you can - but oversized
loads can overburden your washer. In fact, overloading is the number-one cause
of damage to washing machines, so stick to medium loads.
Extend washer life: 3 to 5 years.
Keep things level.
Make sure your washer is on a flat floor. A washer that's sitting on an uneven
surface can shake and break itself during the spin cycle.
Extend washer life: 3 to 5 years.
