Life In Pieces: 15 Minute Challenge - September 4th
Three day weekends are such great opportunities to sew. But with Labor Day now behind us, the next long weekends will be the holidays (at least for those of us who live in the US). The year seems to speed up as it goes along. January always seems to pass so slowly for me. But by the time we get to September, it feels like the month only lasts a couple of weeks and then we are into October. Maybe part of that is because I have a lot of October deadlines at work.
I did take advantage of the long weekend to sew, pretty much ignoring any "labors" devoted to housework for the entire weekend. Other than Friday, which was the night all three of us came home pretty much comatose, I sewed every night the last 7 days.
The Layer Cake Quilt Along project is from 2010 and is this month's UFO. It was last month's UFO too and I didn't touch it until just before the end of August. I'd like to get it off the list and as it's the only one of my UFO's with all the blocks finished, it's the one most likely to actually get done.
I'm still working on the Sofa Quilt, but as a leaders and enders project. I've mentioned before that having to trim all those flying geese for block B was really demotivating me. By moving that project to the back burner, I was able to work on not only the LCQA project, but make the first block of the Grandmother's Choice BOW and make some progress on the coffee cup blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge as well. I'm just a lot more productive if I'm working on multiple projects at time rather than limiting myself to one. A lesson I need to remember.
Did you find some time to sew over the holiday weekend? Either way, link up and share how your sewing/crafting is going.

Sounds like a productive weekend. It is easier to find something to sew with several projects going on.
Lynne September 4, 2012 at 8:28 AM
You've done very well this week!
We have only thee long weekends in the year - Easter (which is a four day weekend), second Monday in June (the Queen's Birthday holiday) and the first Monday in October (Labour Day). Apart from that, we have what we call "public holidays" on 1st January (New Year's Day), 26th January (Australia Day), 25th April (ANZAC Day -- a commemoration of those who served in war) and 25th and 26th December (Christmas and Boxing Day). That's it for the year! The only days shops don't open are Christmas Day, Boxing Day (except in Sydney city - not suburbs) and in the morning on ANZAC Day!
I thin you get a few more than us!

Amanda September 4, 2012 at 5:06 PM
I can understand the lots of project thing at once. I get bored very easily. I have a couple of deadlines at the moment but I can't wait till they are all done and I can start on a new quilt which I picked the pattern up for at a class I did recently. The fabric is just about all together and I am itching to start. You had a good week with only one day off.

I do better with one project, though sometimes I do get bogged down. Great week of sewing!
Kristin Aquariann September 5, 2012 at 2:14 PM
I don't know how to sew, but I did make a mini tricorn hat this weekend, using lots of hot glue. ;D
lesleyworth September 5, 2012 at 6:26 PM
I agree with the multiple projects 100%! It keeps me engaged and interested for longer periods of time! Have a great week!

Booktalk: The Death Cure by James Dashner (The Maze Runner #3) - Chapters Pages Words
by Lily Lucas - 09:33
The Death Cure is the third and final book in the Maze Runner Trilogy and it brings the story to a close with Thomas and his friends trying to take down WICKED and save the immunes.
Okay so first things first this was my least favourite of the series. There I said it. I went into this book looking for a good and satisfying end and it seemed to go in that direction but as the plot progressed more and more things were added into the story and I started to wonder how Dashner was going to pull it all together and get it sorted into a good ending but I don't think it did. He thickened the plot too much that the ending missed some things.
In this book I was a little bit angry at Thomas because even though Teresa almost killed him she did it to protect him. And even though Teresa is not my favourite of Thomas' love interests, I do think that he treated her unfairly under the circumstances. Also especially because she sacrificed herself for him.
I thought that the death of Newt was sad but very well thought out because you could see it coming with the note and with Newt drifting away finally at that point when he sees Thomas again.
Another thing that confused me about this book and also about the Scorch Trials is the age of Jorge. In the Scorch Trials we never find out his age but we get the assumption that he is the same age as Brenda and the other (around seventeen) but in the Death Cure we hear a little something that indicated that he is quite a bit older.
I was happy that Thomas ended up with Brenda at the end but the lack of a relationship in this book made it a little hard to get into. I know it was not meant to have a relationship that took a big part in the book because it's an action novel (and a more male orientated story) but I would have liked to see more of the relationship of Thomas and Teresa or Thomas and Brenda.
Overall this book was okay, it was an interesting read and it kept me wanting to read it but the writing was okay and the ending did not satisfy as much as I wished it would.
Buy The Death Cure from Amazon!

A Day in the Life of Cindy: Rid Your Home of Cat Hair; Without Getting Rid of the Cat!
"Sometimes I just amaze myself" - too funny. We have three cats- I need to try this. See ya, Kellan
We have 2 cats too, similar colours and similar problems.We have laminate flooring which helps and we lock them out of the lounge while we are in bed which helps.You can never solve the problem, but go on admit it, they're worth it :0)
That's a wise move.I don't own any cats but I do have rabbits. I'll try too ...
You're going to lint roller me? :-OOh, I see what you mean. We have just the one cat, but she's very generous with her cat hair. I have to hoover every day and am forever using the lint roller on our clothes.But she's worth it. :-) x
Yes, I see what you mean. But when you have to choose between your kitty and your lovely "kiddy" things get tougher, and doctors leave you just one sad choice. That's my case. However I'm really glad for you and .....the cats.
Hey I actually did the sweeper thing on my cat. He love it! Just use one of those hand sweepers or use an attachment on your big vacuum. I think it feels good to cats. My old cat loved it too!
I've given up on removing cat hair from my clothing. If I clean myself up before going to work, I end up covered in more hair at work because we have two cats. Leaving the hair on my clothes gives me something to do while sitting on the bus, stuck in traffic. I can pick them off one hair at a time to keep my mind off the fact that we're not moving.Oh, and if you want to get rid of the hair directly at the source try one of those little hand held Sweepa brushes, with rubber bristles. I bought one when I was foolish enough to think I should remove the hair from my clothing. I gave up using it on myself but the cats LOVE it. Gets off way more fur than a brush.
Hmm, between the cat hair and the scratching and hissing during the cat-rolling process, I think I'll take the cat hair.Well, if I could have cats. We're all allergic. :)
Freakin' hysterical. Did you get clawed during that process?I am highly allergic to cats and my MIL has one. Her house is full of hair too! I think she just doesn't want me visiting! Ha!
I am going to invent a fabric that's the color of pet hair and baby spit-up and be a millionaire! Of course it would be too ugly for anyone to want to buy, but still...
Four cats here. Fur is a constant. I wake up with cat-hair attached to my eyelashes. I fight off my ginger tabby whenever I have peanut butter. I fear for my life with the black one if I go for the margarine. We use a lint brush (and sometimes masking tape). Generally, I just vaccuum a lot.Gotta love 'em! They do have that habit of going for dark pant legs. My husband has to roll up his trouser legs to get out the door for work!Poetikat(stop by my blog for a Cat post today!)

Peace and Craziness: Anyone want a dog?
Look at this cute face... don't you want him?! Grr........... that's me growling, not the dog, and I'm growling about the dog. Okay, we really do love him.. but he's about to be chained up until adulthood if his chewing doesn't stop soon. I don't know if I posted about the $300 in van repairs he costs us LAST WEEK when he chewed an O2 sensor out from under the van. We have only had the van back for one day.. and last night, on my way home from TayLee's (thanks for the good time guys!!) the transmission light came on. I started panicking.. but the van drove home just fine with no problems. Everything seemed in top working order.. no big deal. I mentioned it to clayton though. This morning he vanishes for a while, and then comes in while I'm on the phone with Leslie (Tyler has pink eye! poor little guy!) looking really PO'd and dirty and sweaty, carrying a weird little thing in his hand. You guessed it.. the O2 Sensor.. that the dog has chewed out.. AGAIN!!! AHHHHH!!! Clayton called my Dad (who does a lot of car work) and asked what we could do b/c we just cannot afford $600 in two weeks of van repairs! So he talked for a while and tried to install it back in again. We've yet to drive it though to see if it is working... oh man.. that dog better grow up to be the best dog in the entire world.. or he's getting bread and water to eat from now on! ;) Seriously though... this is why parents always flip out when kids want a new dog.. I never thought about how destructive one puppy could be! People that say kids are expensive never had a German Shephard puppy!
Carter and I had our first REAL fight of the wills this morning. He's become increasingly more mischevious since turning two, and lately a lot more disobedient. (to be expected at this age...) but this morning it seemed he was doing everything he could to make madison cry, and to make me want to strangle him. So, the last straw was when he got into the 'no no' cabinent under the sink that I keep the dishwashing liquid and such in. He got a bottle of diswashing liquid out and threw it down, looking me right in the eye the entire time. So I knelt down to him and said, "Carter, that's not for you, put this back please." and handed him the bottle. He took it from me and threw it again... and gave a little grunt that translates into "not gonna do it" for those that have never had 2 year olds. So, I sat him down in the kitchen floor... and basically wouldn't let him get up until he put the bottle back. I think it's time to start putting my foot down with him. I remember doing this same stuff with Madison. He is so much more compliant than she was though. After maybe 2 minutes of having to stay in the kitchen, he picked up the bottle, put it back, and ran to me all excited and proud of himself. He got tons of hugs and kisses and life went on. We'll see what the next battle of the wills will be. If he was only aware of the fact that there's not much he can pull that his sister hasn't already, and I now have an entire brain full of methods to deal with his craziness.
K.T. says peace on Thursday, 10 August, 2006 said...
That is why we dont have a dog either,but the kids have been begging for one.My will is stronger than theirs.LOL So good luck with that chewing puppy but I do have a story to tell you..My friend Andrea had this yippy annoying little black lab.It would eat your legs up and fingers and whatever else it could get its teeth into.Now that it is an adult,it is gentle and loving and sweet.I use this as a metaphor for my children...LOL.
Mandy on Thursday, 10 August, 2006 said...
lol K.T.!!! I could use that for my kids and our chewy dog! I do think he'll grow up to be a great dog.. but man.. I NEVER wanted a puppy! lol
Lou Arnold on Thursday, 10 August, 2006 said...
He did it again. That is crazy. I have never heard of that.
Phillip Slaughter on Saturday, 12 August, 2006 said...
Mandy, I have been looking at your previous posts, and your children are getting huge! They are precious!
Suzanne on Saturday, 12 August, 2006 said...
matt said you could kill 'im. or try the mace on the van part! ;)
aww, thanks Phillip! I agree with both of those comments! ;)
Matt, don't think killing the dog isn't something that was said SEVERAL times after he chewed it just the first time.. I thought poor Major was doomed the second time. Lucky for him, Clayton fixed it himself! I'm so PO'd that we paid $300 for something we could've done on our own!!! Such is life!

WildKard’s Notepad
My own personal thoughts, concerns and general Brainstorming about Mobygames.com (an online database) and the role of videogames as form of media and of art.
SaveNetRadio.org sponsored post
I’m still busy this week, but I thought I’d throw a quick blog up about something somewhat important to me. During my day, whether working on Mobygames or “day job” or just chilling out, I listen to podcasts and streaming Internet radio stations. Lately the later has become threatened by new legislation which raises the United States licensing fees for music played over the Intenet. Basically the fees are much greater than they are for FM stations or even satellite radio and are threatening to put some of my favorite Internet “stations” out of business, as it’s unlikely they’ll ever make enough money to pay the licensing.
The folks at Digitally Imported put it like this:
To make an analogy, imagine there was a law passed on an ice cream tax, and the tax rate depended on the number of visitors visiting your store rather than how much ice cream the store sold. So imagine the tax does not care if ice cream buyers came just to hang out and get a little bit of icecream – all ice cream stands would go out of business except those who sell wholesale mega packs to a few visitors in places like Sams Club or Costco, or Walmart if it was willing to lose money just to get you into their store.
Now I don’t live in the United States, but this law affects me as the Internet is international. My sanity also depends on a variety of these stations including Digitally Imported, RadioParadise, WOXY: The Future of Rock & Roll, all of which I recommend for listening. Like I said, I tune into them regularly while doing work, cooking, cleaning or simply if I’m playing another game whose soundtrack I don’t really get into (I listen to DI’s chillout and trance channels when playing Starflight, a spaceflight game from the 80s without much music).
Just another attempt by the music industry to stuff genies back into bottles… be sure to fight it!
And here’s a longer youtube video for those who don’t like to read:

All Blacks have an incredible winning record at Eden Park | Daily Mail Online
The All Blacks have one of sport's most formidable fortresses... the Lions will make history if they can end opponents' 23-year unbeaten run at Eden Park
Lions Tour 2017: All the latest from New Zealand
The All Blacks have won all 37 of their games at Eden Park - the stadium has become a formidable fortress
Eden Park plays host to the first Test when the British and Irish Lions travel to Auckland venue on Saturday
They average four tries a game at Eden Park since 1994, scoring 1,319 points - and have conceded only 510
The Lions have played at iconic New Zealand stadium just once, suffering a crushing 48-18 defeat in 2005
Published: 18:53 EST, 21 June 2017 | Updated: 13:10 EST, 22 June 2017
Between August 27, 1921 and July 3, 1994, Eden Park did not quite live up to its name. And for its first 21 years from the turn of the 20th century it was exclusively a cricket ground.
But now the venue for the first British and Irish Lions Test match against the All Blacks this Saturday is a special kind of paradise for the New Zealand rugby team. In the first 73 years of hosting rugby internationals it was a successful hunting ground for the Kiwis.
They won 74 per cent of games at the Auckland venue — looking at the major rugby-playing nations playing at their preferred home venue, that is an exceptional record.

Then All Blacks captain Richie McCaw holds the Bledisloe Cup and the Tri Nations trophies in the dressing room in 2006

WIN RATIOS AT HOME
New Zealand (Eden Park) - 74%
South Africa (Ellis Park) - 69%
England (Twickenham) - 65%
France (Stade de France) - 63%
Wales (Arms Park/Millennium) - 58%
Ireland (Lansdowne Road/Aviva) - 50%
South Africa at Ellis Park, Johannesburg? 48 Tests — 33 won, at a 69 per cent ratio.
England at Twickenham? 301 Tests — 197 won, at a 65 per cent win ratio.
France at Le Stade de France? 76 Tests — 48 won, at a 63 per cent win ratio.
Wales in Cardiff — whether it is the old Arms Park or the Millennium? 293 Tests — 170 won, at a 58 per cent win ratio.
Ireland at Lansdowne Road, or the Aviva Stadium as it has become known? 280 Tests — won 140, at a 50 per cent win ratio.
Those are records you might expect for the pre-eminent rugby teams of the last 120 years who have a fixed home. Periods of dominance, periods of decline, largely positive results.
Lions head coach Warren Gatland has chosen form over... All Blacks won't crack British and Irish Lions' lineout code... Warren Gatland's decision to keep Maro Itoje on the bench...

McCaw celebrates in the dressing room with (L-R) Steve Hansen, Chris Jack and Sir Graham Henry, who enjoys a beer
But then you look at the All Blacks, playing at Eden Park since 1994, and the numbers are staggering.
Played 37. Won 37. Zero losses. None. Zilch. Two World Cups, in 1987 and 2011, have been lifted by New Zealand captains David Kirk and Richie McCaw there.
So that is no defeats in rugby's professional era, which started in 1995. Frankly, ridiculous.
And just for context Maro Itoje was not born, Bill Clinton was in the White House, Tony Blair had just become Labour leader and 'Love is All Around' by Wet Wet Wet was the No 1 record in the UK charts the last time New Zealand lost a rugby match in Auckland.
The record for the cricket team there is less impressive. A wicket is dropped into the hallowed turf for Test matches and the New Zealand Blackcaps have managed to damage the stadium's aura a little, losing 15 and winning just 10, with 24 draws there since 1930.

France players look dejected while sitting in the locker room following the team's defeat by New Zealand at Eden Park in 2007

But the last rugby defeat was by France, 23-20, when Jean-Luc Sadourny and Emile Ntamack scored tries, Thierry Lacroix and Christophe Deylaud kicking the rest. Sean Fitzpatrick scored the Kiwis' only try and Matthew Cooper hit five of their penalties.
Since then it has been a blackwash. The All Blacks average four tries a game there in the last 23 years, scoring way more than double their opposition in Tests over that time — 1,319 points scored to just 510 conceded.
Eleven nations have tried to beat them there, the Lions too — in 2005 — and none have won. As home records go it is pretty much the best in sporting history.
So this is what the Lions are up against. The schedule has been particularly unkind to them throughout this tour — sponsors getting in the way of sport — but this takes on a whole new level when it comes to the Test series, the only thing that really matters.
Two of the three Tests are at Eden Park, the first and the third, with Wellington's Cake Tin (the Westpac Stadium) hosting the other one. With Christchurch not fit to host a Test after two earthquakes ruined Lancaster Park in 2010 and 2011, and Dunedin's Forsyth Barr Stadium —that one that looks like a conservatory — too small, Auckland and Eden Park it is.
Eden Park as it stood in 1950 before hosting the fourth British Empire Games - this aerial view shows how it has developed
Now it stands as one of the most domineering fortresses in world rugby - and the All Blacks haven't lost there for 23 years
The All Blacks prepare to go out on to the pitch this year ahead of the Test match against Samoa at their iconic stadium
Close to 50,000 will pack into the stands. The dull grey seats filled with black and red-shirted supporters.
Earlier this week Ian Foster, assistant coach of the All Blacks, was asked about the stadium that the Kiwis do not lose at.
He said it was up to this era of New Zealanders to keep the stunning record going.
'We love playing there,' he said. 'It has always been a special ground for New Zealand rugby as a whole.
'It is not a record that means anything in itself. We have to play well on Saturday. If we are to add to the legacy of Eden Park we are going to have to play well.
New Zealand have played 37 and won 37 of their games at Eden Park since 1994
Eleven nations have tried to beat them there, the Lions too — in 2005 — and none have won
All Blacks have scored 1319 points scored and conceded 510 at Eden Park in the last 23 years
'But there is something about playing in front of our home crowd, it is a big crowd. They are passionate and they love the All Blacks playing well.
'This will be special because a significant percentage (of the crowd) will be (wearing) red.'
If the Lions want to make a statement there is no better location. Three miles south of the biggest Kiwi city lies the All Blacks' fortress.
Storm it and the Lions will not only take the advantage in this series, they will become legends, penning a chapter in the annals of history.
Can Eden Park's rugby utopia be disturbed? Or will it be all black again?
Venue has become an iconic rugby ground after years of being exclusively for cricket - and All Blacks have made it their home
Great ground, two great teams will be a great game!...

Let me help you relocate to Orlando
Regardless of whether you get a new job, your employer is asking you to relocate, or you want to move to a place that you dreamed of for a long time, moving is not easy. Relocating to a new city comes with a mixture of feelings: optimism for new beginnings but uncertainty of the unknown.
When you move to a new city there are so many things that you have to research:
• Will I be able to have a short commute to my job?
• Where will my kids go to school? Does the school system have a good reputation?
• What are the neighborhoods like? What part of town?
• What is there to do in the new city besides work?
If you are relocating to Orlando, Florida whether a short trip or across the country I am here to help you navigate through the stressful relocation process when moving to a new city.
Please visit my website http://www.OrlandoTinaRealtor.com for a FREE Orlando Florida relocation package.
You can reach me, Tina Israelson, anytime via cell phone 407-414-9718. It will be my pleasure to assist you with your Orlando real estate market needs, make your move as stress free as possible, and find the home that is right for you and your family.
Four types of loans when buying a home
Posted on June 19, 2014	by OrlandoFloridaHomes
When buying a home the loan type that you choose matters
When buying a home, you need to find out which type of loan works best for you and your situation.
Mortgage loans have a reputation for being complicated, and since many people assume they won’t understand the details, they don’t even try. Beware, this can cost you money and it’s not hard to learn a few basic facts. Here’s a simple breakdown of four loan types to help you choose the one that’s right for you.
General Knowledge – Loans come in 15, 20 or 30 year contracts. The faster you pay off your loan, the higher the monthly payments will be. Conversely, if you extend the length of your loan, you’ll have smaller monthly payments, but will accrue more interest.
A fixed rate loan allows you to lock in at a low rate of interest, and keep that rate for the life of the mortgage. This type of loan is advantageous when rates are low.
With an adjustable rate loan, the payments will rise and fall depending on the current interest rate. There is a limit to how high the rate can go, and to how many times your rate can be raised. This type of loan is beneficial if you are buying when fixed rates are high, or when you expect your income to grow in the future.
A balloon mortgage offers low-interest rates for short periods of time —usually three to seven years. Payments go toward interest only, so the principal is not reduced. Many people opt for this type of loan if they are planning to resell in a few years.
• Government-backed Loans
Sponsored by agencies like the Federal Housing Administration or the Department of Veterans Affairs these loans offer special terms for qualified borrowers. Benefits often include lower down payments or reduced interest rates.
Variations in interest rates, loan amounts, and terms can have a significant effect on your monthly payment.

When considering a new home, it’s important to look down the road to the time you’ll need to sell it. No one knows what life will bring, and while you love the house would like to spend a lifetime there, that may not be the case.
Assessing the resale value of a home is crucial when purchasing the home and while it’s hard to predict what will appeal to potential buyers, there are some central themes that you should keep in mind.
Location – This is huge factor in the value of a home. Most home buyers look for a central location close to shopping, schools and medical facilities. It’s also good to be close major roads and highways, but not too close. Another plus is convenient access to public transportation.
Floor Plan – An important factor in a home’s value is the layout. Typical home buyers are seeking three to four bedrooms, with bathrooms on each floor and one in the master bedroom. Lots of closet space is also desirable, as are home offices and bonus rooms. The biggest consideration is the kitchen. Is it open and well planned, light and clean? The kitchen is the most expensive area to remodel, so buyers look for homes with well-appointed existing kitchens.
View – You may love the industrial view from your potential home’s living room, but while the bleak and gritty atmosphere is the perfect inspiration for your Gothic poetry, the next person might see a depressing collection of smokestacks. Of course you want a home that fits your personality, but if you’re ever going to resell it, you’ll want to stay somewhat inside the box.
Curb Appeal –This factor has a big effect on the decision to buy a piece of property. Appearance matters. Once you purchase a home, you’ll need to keep up the yard and paint job. Replace sagging gutters, and take down the Christmas decorations before they begin to fade in the sun. Your home doesn’t have to be the shining star of the neighborhood, but you’ll want to make it look inviting from the street.
With these facts in mind – when the job transfer comes through, or the triplets are born and you need relocate, you can successfully resell your home by calling me, Tina Israelson, your committed Realtor.

Think of size when purchasing a home
Posted on June 9, 2014	by OrlandoFloridaHomes
Buying the biggest house you can afford may not be in your best interest. Bigger is not always better, but too small can cramp your style. There are a few things to keep in mind when considering the size of your next Orlando home.
Here’s where a good mortgage broker and real estate agent come in handy. They can advise you on how much to set aside for mortgage payments. Are you considering starting a family? Your expenses will increase at that point. Leave yourself some wiggle room.
Why is this house such a deal in the first place? Could it be that a two bedroom, 1.5 baths doesn’t sell well in this neighborhood of large families? While it may be perfect for you now, you’ll want to look down the road and judge whether you’ll be able to sell it when the time comes.
Maybe you’re a writer and your partner is the drummer in a rock band. If your hobbies clash, an office or bonus room might be in order. What if you’re a fan of Chinese takeout and don’t know your stove from your refrigerator – do you really need that chef’s quality kitchen?
A sweeping lawn or garden with a white picket fence may loom large in your dream home. But in reality, will you have the time and interest to maintain it? If not, can you afford to have someone else mow and hoe?
What’s the plan for this place? Are you adopting a pot belly pig, or having a mother-in –law move in? (Be careful not to confuse the two.) What’s your ten-year plan? Will this property expand and adapt to your changing lifestyle?
For answers to questions like these and many others, check with me, Tina Israelson, Orlando Realtor. I have been a realtor for 13 years, and I can help you find the perfect home.

John is a 26 –year-old civil engineer, who lives in Orlando with his wife and their young daughter. He has a stable job and won’t be transferred soon. Though he’s happy with his apartment, he’d like a place for his family to call their own. Lately he’s been wondering – Should I invest in a home?
If you, like John are contemplating this question, we have some answers.
1. Equity – When you buy a home you get something real. Instead of wasting money on rent each month, you’re investing in the future, as well as the present – the equity you’re accruing can turn into cash later, and you can live in your investment now.
2. Tax Breaks – When you’re making mortgage payments, the US tax code lets you deduct the interest.
3. Savings – Making mortgage payments is like having an enforced savings account. When you eventually sell, you can take up to $250,000 (twice that for a married couple) as gain without federal income tax.
4. Appreciation – While there are some fluctuations, the real estate market usually experiences stable growth. Home sales prices have increased 8.85% over the last ten years. There is always a demand for housing.
5. Stability – Living in one neighborhood for several years gives you roots. Neighbors become friends and you have a chance to participate in the community.
This brings us back to John’s original desire – a place to call his own. Owning a home gives you freedom from ever-rising rent and association fees; freedom from white walls and builder grade carpet. When you own a home you’re free to do what you will with it. If you want to remodel, you can. If you want to dig up the back yard and plant a garden, you can do that too. In this house, you are king or queen of the castle, and all decisions are up to you.
If you feel like you’re ready to take the first step toward home ownership, contact me, Tina Israelson, your Orlando real estate agent and I’ll help you get started!

Buyers be cautious with flipped properties
Posted on June 6, 2014	by OrlandoFloridaHomes
When buying a property that was a bank owned or a short sale that was a quick fix and then flipped you need to consider the following:
Due to the unfortunate circumstances surrounding short sales and foreclosures, the previous homeowners may be leaving under duress. Watching your dream of home ownership go up in smoke tends to bring out the worst in people and some vent their feelings by damaging the property. This damage may, or may not be obvious to the casual observer.
When buyers purchase a remodeled bank owned or short sale property, they need to check them out carefully. Nail holes in walls may have punctured plumbing. Water damage may have caused mold in the walls or under flooring.
Disclosure Rules. These vary from state to state, but here are some basic steps everyone should take to avoid problems.
Sellers – are not immune from making disclosures just because they haven’t lived in the property. If you remodeled or repaired the property after you purchase it, you should know some of the defects because you had to repair them. You must disclose to the buyer as accurately and completely as possible all the known facts about the home via a seller’s disclosure.
The listing agent is required to disclose any information they may have about the property and honestly answer questions of potential buyers.
Buyers – Ask questions like these:
• What was the property’s condition when it was repossessed?
• Are there receipts from licensed contractors to verify the amount of money the seller spent on repairs?
• Is there a list of what was done to correct defective conditions?
• Was there damage that was not repaired?
• Were permits available for the work that was done?
These questions and the answers to them will help you as a buyer to make an informed decision about the properties you might be interested in.

Making Simultaneous Offers on Multiple Properties
Posted on June 3, 2014	by OrlandoFloridaHomes
Living in a hot seller’s market is can be frustrating for home buyers. When you’re going up against aggressive buyers who may even be dealing in cash, it’s easy to feel like you can’t compete.
Many buyers may wonder if making simultaneous offers on several different properties might be the answer, and while this may work to your advantage, there are several factors to keep in mind.
Some people consider the practice of making multiple bids when you only intend to buy one property unethical. Sellers believe you’re making an offer in good faith, and will expect you to follow through on the transaction. Not only that, but in some states simultaneous offers are illegal. Before attempting anything like this, make sure and check with a real estate attorney.
Once you get the go ahead from your attorney, you still have to tread very carefully, or you could end up losing your earnest money deposits.
1. You’ll need to provide separate deposits for each offer. This means an individual check for each deposit and enough money in the bank to cover all of them if you lose control of the situation. (Should you have more than one offer accepted, you may lose the earnest money on the offer you decline.)
2. You can suggest an offer on a contingency basis. In other words say this offer is contingent on whether my other offer is accepted. This would be safer for you, but understand that most sellers won’t work with you under these conditions.
3. Be considerate of sellers and let them know the minute you accept another offer. Timing is crucial here because as soon as a seller signs off on your offer it’s considered a done deal.
In the long run, you’re better off not playing this risky game. Instead, make one solid offer that meets the seller’s needs, and work with a real estate agent who can help you identify perspective homes as soon as they’re listed.
With a little patience and help from me, Tina Israelson, you’ll find the home of your dreams.

Selling Your Longwood Florida Home All Year Round
Posted on May 28, 2014	by OrlandoFloridaHomes
Selling Your Longwood Home
Traditional wisdom tells us that spring and summer are better seasons to sell a home. As it turns out, this may not be true. While the time of year does affect a home sale, there are advantages to every season. You can sell just as successfully in the fall and winter as in spring and summer.
Pros of Spring and Summer
• People are more inclined to relocate when their children are out of school. Parents hate to disrupt their children’s education and know if they move during school breaks, kids can make friends and get settled before school starts up again.
• It’s easier to move when the weather is pleasant.
• As a seller you don’t have as many national holidays to work around.
Unfortunately, not everyone is able to choose the time of their move. Perhaps you’ve been transferred or have accepted a new job. Maybe you’ve experienced a change in the family dynamics, such as a new baby or the addition of an elderly parent to your household. In some cases you’ll need to sell your home in the in-climate months, and as it turns out it’s not a bad idea after all.
Pros of Fall and Winter
• There’s a lot less competition for the home buyer dollar. Many people believe they should wait until spring to list their home; consequently the winter market isn’t glutted with options.
• You don’t see as many casual shoppers this time of year. The people considering your home are serious buyers – they need a home now and are willing to pay top dollar.
• If you sell when the “snow” flies, you have advantage of holiday decorations to make your home seem warm and welcoming. Decorate your yard and porch with pumpkins or gourds for Halloween and Thanksgiving. During the Christmas season, add lights on the outside, and a tree and ornaments on the inside.
No matter what the season, you can sell your Longwood home. For more tips on selling your Longwood home quick call me, your real estate agent and Longwood resident,Tina Israelson, at 407-414-9718.

One of the reasons people have a hard time committing to a mortgage is the fear of the unknown. What if I lose my job, what if I can’t afford it, what if there’s something I don’t like about the house? These are valid questions, but luckily there is a way to address all of them.
If after the fact, you discover something you don’t like about the house, you can always fix it. Nothing is so wrong that it can’t be set right, and if you’ve worked with a realtor, you’ll find out about any problems before you sign on the dotted line.
The bottom line, is do your research, don’t go into a big purchase like this with blinders on.

Moly_X 81: 2011
Hopefully everyone had a great Christmas. I know I did. I'm excited to see more from everyone in the new year ! :) Take care!
Posted by Joey463 at 11:44 AM No comments:
Here is my contribution to Natalie's Music Moly. I decided on having a PSYCHEDELIC HEAVY METAL ROCKING group of wild birds adapting the German nursery rhyme "Alle Voegel sind schon da". :) You can listen to it here while looking at the drawing ...

Location: 59065 Hamm, Germany
Hi there! Things finally got going again at my place! My "Creature" Moly has completed its first round and will travel on tomorrow. I've also started drawing in Natalie's "Music" Moly and I think I can take it to the post office by the end of this week.

Suzanne's Moly
Suzanne's Moly made it's long trip from Germany and successfully arrived at my house yesterday. It looks beautiful so far.
FYI, I may be a little later with my entry than usual for this one. Half the design department, at my company, quit over that last few weeks and until we hire a new designer, I'll be doing the work of three people. So, I'm a tad busy at the moment. :-)
I am looking forward to adding to the book. I'm thinking of a few ideas already.
Soooo, I finally got going with Suzanne's Moly and added a few guys to Joey's caveman... The book will travel on tomorrow and will complete its first round soon.
Posted by Diana at 12:29 AM 3 comments:
Okay Diana, I really sent them today. 2 Molys , Natalie's Music Moly and your Creature Moly. You should see them soon. I hate to have sent 2 Molys in one package but because I forgot to send the music moly I backed myself into a corner. Hope they have a safe trip.
Location:47th Ave SW,Seattle,United States
Posted by Joey463 at 10:45 AM 5 comments:
Joey's book is here! It is so exciting when I see a small package in the mailbox, knowing it is a Moly to look at in person.
I am also very nearly done with Diana's creature Moly, hoping to mail it out by the end of the week.
I am so thrilled with our exchange! The books are looking fantastic and it really is a lot of fun.
Posted by Suzanne at 5:41 AM 1 comment:
I just finished Natalie's Music Moly. This one was fun. I drew a bunch of items from my studio. I'll be sending this one on to Diana on Thursday.

I just received Natalie's book. It looks awesome ! I really like being able to see everyones work in person. This exchange is really cool because it allows artists to sit up close and personal with other artists work . I really enjoy that aspect of the Moleskine Exchange . Great work everyone. :)

I braved my 95 degree studio and finished my entry in Joey's book last night. I had a lot of fun with this one and am pleased with the way it came out. It was done in acrylic.
With Diana's Entry:
And the entire book so far:
It should be in the mail and on it's way to Suzanne today.
Posted by Natalie at 6:30 AM 3 comments:
Hey Diana, Suzanne's Moly is on its way to you. I Just dropped it off at the post office today. I Can't wait to see what you do in it.
Our Molys are turning out awesome. Every single one of them looks great. I like how we are all coming off each other and melding the drawings together. This is a really fun project.
Posted by Joey463 at 2:10 PM 2 comments:
Well, I finished my addition to Natalie's Music moly today. I have been working out my idea over the last couple of days, by the time I got to my final I think I had four different versions of the same idea on my table. I was planning to just work directly in the moly and I think I just chickened out. I am scared I will mess up and working on a sheet and gluing it in gives me a safety blanket (and watercolor paper). I only have one little glitch from the glue in, where I lost the top of a note and it's to close to one of Natalie's to fix, but otherwise no problems.
Here it is with Natalie's work too . . .
This was a fun one to work in, thinking about music and how best to show how I imagine the sounds might look. My idea was more abstract than I usually work and I like how the colors turned out.
Watch your mail Joey, it leaves for your place tomorrow!
Now on to the creature . . .
I started and finished Suzanne's "After Dark" Moly today! I love it! It was alot of fun to work on this concept of things after dark. I decided to go with a cave man warrior hunter, a raccoon, a frog, and some bats. The caveman warrior hunter also has a nice owl hat, like you see in movies the guys with bear hats well he has an Owl hat.
I know it's ridiculous but isn't that the fun in it. I hope you guys like it. :

It looks great Suzanne! That 90lb paper glued in well. It looks like your book got a little wet in transit though. The back cover is a little warped and there is some water rings towards the end pages but nothing major. I'll get right on this. So the theme is "After Dark" right? I attached a photo to show the watermark.
Posted by Joey463 at 5:42 PM 2 comments:
I've finally finished my entry in Diana's book. It took me a little while to come up with something as drawing "creatures" isn't something that I do very often and is a bit of a challenge for me when I do. (This was good practice though. :-)) For my entry I used acrylic paint and pencil.
And along with Diana's:
Hope you like it. I'm sending it off to Suzanne today.
The sign-in page of my Moly for the exchange. Done with Sharpie pen and watercolor right on the Moleskine paper (which I think is yucky).
My theme is After Dark, which allowed me to start with owls and I felt it was open enough to allow for lots of different interpretations.
Here is my first page completed and en route to Joey (sorry about the delay!). I used a sheet of 90 pound Arches hot press to create my work which was then glued into the actual book. This allowed me to work in my favorite medium - watercolor - without going completely crazy because of dealing with the paper.
Another view with the book standing so you catch a glimpse of the sign-in page and the entire first page in the book. The glue in addition of extra paper does not seem to be a problem, although it does leave a stark edge rather than a graceful bleed out to the next design.
This is a test of the Moly broadcast network. Remember this is just a test. You should have been sent an email that this post was... ummm... posted. If you did not, well, then I did something wrong. Let me know if you received an email when this posted. Thanks.

Just received Joey's book from Diana. It looks great!
Sent my book to Suzanne today, so that should be arriving in the next few days.
Sign in and first entry
Hi All. I've finally finished the sign in page and first entry of my Moly-x book. I decided to go with the theme "Music". I chose to make my first entry 1950s themed , but don't feel you have to continue with that specific genre of music. Do whatever "music" means to you. I'm looking forward to seeing what you all add to it. Now on to my entry in Diana's book.
Labels: music sketch drawing 1950s
Joey's Moly is here
Yay! Joey's Moly arrived yesterday and I started to continue his great drawing straight away last night. It will take me a couple of days though to have it ready to send on again.

Diana - My Moly is on the way !
I just mailed my Moly. I ended up getting it out a few days later than I wanted to but alas it is on the way! I know you will make it amazing.

Diana's Moly
Just letting you know that Diana's Moly arrived safe and sound this morning.
Diana, it's even more amazing in person. I love your linework and textures. I look forward to working on it. Is there a particular theme to your book or is it open? I wasn't sure.
Just FYI, I'll have limited access to the internet over the next week, so I might not be able to respond to emails or posts too frequently.
Here is my first entry in my Moly. I should be sending it out on Monday.

Hi everyone! I'm Diana, a 33-year-old graphic designer and illustrator living in Hamm, Germany. This is the beginning of my moly which is already very excited to be on this big journey soon.
I've done a couple of black & white drawings recently so I'm probably still in the mood and the beginnig turned out b&w too. That doesn't mean you guys have to stick to that. Feel free to do whatever you fell like to this creature.
I finished my Title / Sign in page today. Here it is.
I'm going to start on my first entry today.

For some reason blogger won't let me leave comments . So here is my introduction.
I am Joey. I work for a wholesale distributor selling HVAC equipment for my Day job. It is cool but not ideal. In my free time I draw and paint. I am a part of Twilight Artist Collective in West Seattle ( http://twilightart.net ) and I also show with Artifakt Art in Seattle ( http://artifaktsrt.org ) . For the past few years I have been working in a strictly non-representational style but recently I have rekindled my love of characters. I am really excited about this exchange. We are going to make some great books!

Hi All! I'm really excited to start working with such a great group of artists. I thought it might be nice for each of us to introduce ourselves so we can get to know each other a little bit.
So I'll start. I'm Natalie and I live and work in New Hampshire, about an hour from Boston. For my day job I work as a web designer, designing websites for schools. In my free time I love to draw and paint (www.nataliecurtiss.com).

I'm glad that everyone is still excited about the Moly exchange . It took a while to get everything going. I'm starting with my Title page. My Theme is "Just Draw, Do What You Do Best" . I wanted to keep it open because I want every one to do their best work. And I think that leaving the theme open in my book allows everyone to do what they love to do. Here's a preview of my title page. This is a progress photo . I'll post another picture when I'm finished. This is going to be alot of fun.
Pens, Pens, Pens... Im a materials-aholic so post what your working with from time to time. Here's some pens.

Are we all coming up with our own theme for our book or are we coming up with a group theme? I have a couple of themes that I have been tossing around and I am hoping to have my moly started by the end of the weekend.
Let me know what you guys think on the theme issue. I don't want to assume we have our our and begin and then find out we are going to try and have the same theme as a group.

Security Dilemmas: To Send Aid Or Not To Send Aid, That Is The Question

Hello, a company calls you to know your name, your phone number, your address, sometimes even the bank you bank with and they ask for your checking account number to deposit the funds there. They tell you there will be a "Grant Processing Fee" of $360 or some dollar amount. It’s a scam. How many people have had this happen?

Jeff's Disney Guide
Doing Disney right.
Travel to the Parks
Choosing Accommodations – Staying On Property
Choosing Accommodations – Staying Off Property
Intro to the Parks
Disney Springs (fka Downtown Disney)
Water Parks, Fun & More
Cruise Miscellany
Hopefully, you’re starting well in advance, which is great. Planning a Disney vacation can be time consuming and is actually filled with thousands of individual, and sometimes very specific, choices. Most people start thinking about a Disney vacation by considering the time of year to visit.
Summer is going to be HOT, HUMID and CRAZY CROWDED. Spring is still warm, and crowded. Fall is nice, but crowded. Winter is chilly, and crowded (a little less so, until you get around the various holiday weeks). Sensing the theme here? 🙂 If there’s nothing you can do about the dates, then the only thing is to plan for it. I’ll talk about that more in a minute. But if you can adjust your dates, or at least be a little flexible, you can avoid the heat, avoid the crazy crowds and have a truly amazing experience.
How? Well, first, pick a time of year where the Florida weather is mild (most of my recommendations will work for Disneyland, too, just adjust for California instead). I prefer late February through early April and again between mid-September and early November. Next, exclude all weeks where there are US holidays. You simply don’t want to be at a Disney park on Labor Day or Valentine’s Day unless there’s something truly special about that day itself. You can have the exact same experience the week before or the week after – the only difference is that you might miss some of the crazy.
Next, exclude weekends, if possible. For most families with children that are of an appropriate Disney vacation age (down to one nap/day, walking on their own, etcetera), finding a week for vacation can be difficult in and of itself. But weekends are naturally busier than weekdays. So if you want to have a weekend as part of your trip, I recommend it be the end of the trip – where you’ve already been able to get in all that you’d want to do during the week and use the weekend events as one-off lazier days. Additionally, giving yourself “a day” for travel (especially if you have kids) isn’t a bad idea – I find I need a day or so for re-entry into my non-Disney life.
One thought on “Timing”
Robyn Walsworth · January 13, 2013 at 1:46 pm ·
I find October to be a great time. Most kids don’t have a “break” yet from school, the European tourists have gone home. The weather is warm enough for the water parks, but not unbearable. Brief rain showers may occur but pass quicker than you can stand inline and eat a snack. The only thing is the Wine & Food festival is in October at Epcot, however I find they are often there without kids to enjoy the festival, and therefore don’t crowd up the lines. I like going there then because the kids will stay with grams and gramps in the room or at the pool in the evening, and we use our dining pass snack credits to try some of the yummy samples! Planning our 3rd October trip this year.
Thanks for creating this Jeff, I can refer friends here, as I am often asked to help plan these trips. More opinions are better than just mine!!
