Not quite Friday

Well, I said in my last post I was going to post each Friday, but today is Thursday, so I am going to go ahead and post today. This has been a quiet week so far, so I am hoping all our Realtors are out busy showing property and writing contracts and listing property!
Tomorrow, April 30, is the last day to write a contract to be eligible for the Extended Tax credit. I have not heard much in the way of any further extensions or new programs. I think they are waiting to see if this actually was effective in helping to boost the economy. We will have to wait and see what the number crunchers and Congress decides. Just remember those contracts you wrote that are eligible for the Tax credit must close by July 1, 2010.
This month has just flown by. (I think they do that because I am older. Notice I didn't come right out and say "OLD" - just older.) May is one of my favorite months because spring is in full swing, flowers are blooming, you can plant a garden, school is wrapping up, baseball/softball seasons are just getting started, graduations happen, and on and on. Plus Mothers Day is in May. Those of us who are lucky enough to have our Mothers still with us get to stress over what to get them. I have decided in my wisdom as a mother of 4, that it really doesn't matter what you get - just that they remembered you!
The Rogers Board of Realtors May meeting will be a picnic lunch at the Prairie Creek Grand Pavilion. Let's all pray it doesn't rain that day. We will have hot dogs, hamburgers, and all the fixin's to go with them. We will have a short meeting and the rest will be fun!! Hope you can make it.
The Grand Pavilion is a great place to have picnics and would be a wonderful place for a family reunion. It can be reserved at the Army Corps of Engineers office here in Rogers.
If you haven't been downtown Rogers lately, drive on down and see all the work they are doing on the intersections. It will be really nice when they get through. Stop by our office and say "Hi". We would love to see you.
I hope to draw more attention to this blogspot and maybe get someone else besides me to post here. If you are reading this... let me know what you think!
Talk to you next week! Go make it a great week and take each day as a gift!
