It's a HOT Friday!

Well, it is Friday and I am writing in the Blog. I think I have missed a couple of Fridays. I am writing this then leaving for the afternoon. I am going to the doctor with my daughter who has been having some stomach problems and wants me along. I am still glad they still need their Mom for something. Anyway after that my husband and I are going to eat at Venesian Inn early this evening.
There is a lot going on right now. We are trying to prepare for the upcoming Arkansas Realtors Association convention here in Rogers and that includes trying to find vendors for the Exhibit Hall. We are also trying to get local agents to register for the convention. This is such a good opportunity for you to attend, because you do not have to pay lodging or travel expenses. And you get to hear some really great speakers!
Starting today the area we start selling tickets for a Drawing to benefit Special Olympics. The prizes are a Samsung 46" LCD HDTV and second prize is a GT Outpost Disc Bike or $450.00 towards the purchase of any other bike from Lewis & Clark Outfitters. We only have until the convention to sell the tickets and the prizes will be given away at the Convention. (You need not be present to win.) Tickets are $2.00 each, 3 for $5.00 or 15 for $25.00. Contact me or Deanna Dial for more information or to purchase your tickets.
I am on my way to Chicago next week (Wednesday through Friday) for the annual NAR Leadership Summit. Every year NAR holds this seminar and invites all Executive Officers and incoming Board Presidents for sessions on Leadership and how to work together as a team and introduce National Leaders for 2011. It is a really worthwhile time for the new President and EO to get together and start planning for the next year. Jonathan Moore of Lindsey & Associates will be going with me. It should be very enlightening!
I am going to make this short as I need to get going on my afternoon off. Too bad I can't spend it at some swimming pool just lounging around. But I have several things I need to get done. My car really needs a good cleaning out. I went through the car wash the other day in hopes that it would rain, but no such luck. So now I just have to clean it out before something starts growing in there.
Hope you are having a good summer and you get everything done you want to accomplish this summer. August is a busy month with school starting back and winding down on summer activities. My husband has a Birthday Tuesday, Aug. 3 and then our anniversary is the 10th. 36 years together is a long time. More on that later...
See ya!
