When Sonora was 16, her mother died giving birth to her sixth child. Of that event it was written, …the day had its nativity in a lonely farm dwelling. Their Sorrow ministered amid the moaning of the March winds. A father sat with bowed head in his aloneness. About him clung his weeping children. The winds outside threw great scarves of powdered snow against the window panes, when suddenly one of the children tore himself from the group and rushed out into the storm calling for his mother. Yet even his childish voice could not penetrate the great silence that held this mother. Hurriedly, the father gathered him back to his protection. For more than two decades, William Smart, alone, kept paternal vigilance over his motherless children. Sonora Smart held her father in great esteem. At age 27, while hearing a church sermon about the newly celebrated Mother’s Day, Sonora felt strongly that fathers needed recognition as well. Inspired by her father’s love and sacrifice, she urged the Spokane Ministerial Alliance to pass a resolution, and the first Father’s Day was celebrated June 19, 1910. Today in the U.S., Canada and many other countries, on the third Sunday in June we honor fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, uncles, and other men for the important role they play in our lives. Make Sunday, June 21, all about Dad! Back To Index - Click Here Washing your car in the driveway is one of the most environmentally unfriendly household tasks you can do. According to the International Carwash Association, car owners typically use 80 to 140 gallons of water versus a commercial carwash that uses 45 gallons per vehicle; many use less because they recycle and reuse the rinse water. In addition, the runoff from home-washed cars – a toxic mix of gasoline, oil, exhaust fume residue, and detergent – goes straight into storm drains and pollutes local rivers and streams. A commercial carwash is required to drain into sewer systems so the water is treated. If you still want to wash your car at home, wash it on grass so the runoff can be neutralized in the soil. Also consider using a waterless formula – there are several on the market – that’s wiped on and buffed off.

Here are 10 thoughts that may make you think – and smile! 1. It’s always darkest before dawn. So if you’re going to steal your neighbor’s newspaper, that’s the time to do it. 2. Never test the depth of the water with both feet. 3. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt or a leaky tire. 4. Don’t be irreplaceable. If you can’t be replaced, you can’t be promoted. 5. If you think nobody cares if you’re alive, try missing a couple of car payments. 6. If at first you don’t succeed, skydiving is not for you. 7. If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything. 8. Generally speaking, you aren’t learning much when your lips are moving. 9. Experience is something you don’t get until just after you need it. 10. If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it. Back To Index - Click Here
Drink lots of water, and avoid smoking and alcohol while you play since these can dehydrate you and cause fatigue. Back To Index - Click Here Many of us want and need to save money these days, but many of us overlook an obvious place to do this: at the cash register. Every time you make a purchase – whether it’s one item at the mini-mart, a week’s worth of grocery shopping or several clothing items you found on sale – always check your receipt before you leave the store to make sure it’s accurate. About seven percent of shoppers report scanner mistakes at the checkout. If scanner guns are not used correctly, for instance, it’s very easy to be charged multiple times for one item. In addition, discount and sale prices are not always programmed into the scanners correctly, so when you buy that 40-percent-off item, you could be charged the original price.

My computers can send you the information quickly and easily for any house, listed or sold, anywhere in town. Just ask me! It’s all part of my free, no-obligation HomeFinder Service.

Looking for a job has always required impeccable behavior on the part of the job seeker. But, says etiquette consultant Jodi R. R. Smith (www.mannersmith.com), the current rocky economic times make it all the more important that job seekers not overlook propriety in their search. Here are a few of Smith’s suggestions: Be professional, especially when communicating electronically. There are a lot of people out there crafting outrageous emails when they’re inquiring about job openings, Smith says. Don’t relax the old rules of job hunting and interviewing just because you’re using modern modes of communication. As Smith says, an email that reads, “Dude, so what’s this job about?” just isn’t going to cut it. Have an error-free résumé ready to go. When a recruiter calls, you should be able to email your résumé to him or her while you’re talking. Make sure you have a professional-sounding voicemail message on whatever phone number or numbers you give to recruiters and list on your résumé. You don’t want a potential interviewer to call you and get a long, silly message you’ve designed for your friends’ amusement. Smile and be pleasant. Your disposition makes the first impression on interviewers. Extend kindness to everyone you meet – including receptionists and anyone else who may not be involved in the interview process. Be upbeat, but not phony.
