Lake Arrowhead Chamber of Commerce, January 2006

Do you remember all those New Year's Eve parties where your friends and family sat around staring at the TV set watching earnestly for the large lighted ball to fall over Times Square?

Well, January has come again, and with it a new commitment to put some money aside for all of those long ignored repairs and upgrades to the house. Let's do this! Take a picture of the exterior of your house, make a list of things to repair and upgrade, and write a budget and time line to take care of these projects. Now, put all of them on the refrigerator door. I feel better already! From now on, every time a friend, neighbor or relative comes over to visit, you can spend hours talking about the details of each and every project. Not only will you be reminded of your commitment to keep the house in good condition, but you will be the envy of them all. They can't possibly be as organized and smart about home repair as you are. And who knows? You may even recruit a volunteer or two to help out.
By the way, I never really have seen that ball fall at midnight. It just seemed to fade away. Don't let your house suffer the same fate.

Let's check up on each other's progress in six months.

My family and I wish you a happy and productive new year.

Remember- Life is better… Close To Home!
