Home!!

There’s no place like home… The travel weary Whitmire bunch is back home safely. We are minus Ashley - she’s in Hawaii with her Nana and Papa. We have all been vegging, sleeping, and now we’re watching the spelling Bee….

Library Funnies

Having not been to a library in quite some time, this has been a source of constant sillies for me. First, I forgot that I’d have to order and wait for certain books that I wanted. Writing down titles from my amazon wish list and trying to scoop them up wasn’t working… so I’m on […]

2 Year Anniversary

I just noticed based on my archives listed on the right of this page (left if you’re in the computer), that this month mark’s my 2 year anniversary of blogging on wordpress. For a formerly fickle blogger such as myself, I feel that is quite an accomplishment. I think I’ll celebrate by…well getting […]

THE HEARTBEAT OF AMERICA

COME SEE BUCKAROO BOB……ON THE MOTOR MILE!

I haven’t personally protested property values for several years because nothing I own has been over-appraised, but I did file many […]

Blogging is about the last thing on my mind right now, even though I feel like I owe you - I see those stats dropping…you’re sitting, […]

Average and Median Sales Prices are up 6% and 6.6% in April from a year ago. Average price per square foot is up 4% from $126 last April to $131 April 2007. The Austin market keeps chugging along at a happy pace, refusing to overheat but still outperforming most other parts of the country.

Good News for Phoenix

One of the items we’ve prayed and wrestled with at Phoenix Church is our location. We meet in a traditional church… That can be a barrier if we don’t create a separation between Phoenix and Crestview, but for now, it’s…

Vacation (part deux)

We took the Larkspur Ferry over to San Francisco today… Why do Americans hate to walk so much??? My family are such whiners… I enjoyed the Wharf today - ate way too much clam chowder, though - and didn’t need…
