This week flew by in a whirlwind. I think it’s because in this area, the weather finally relented and provided some warmer days.

I’m not sure about the temperatures where you are, but here in Baltimore, it’s cold, really cold. On the bright side, I notice that the sun is coming up a little earlier and it’s setting a little later. Typically I hate January, and if you’d asked me each day this month if that was true […]

Welcome to 2021, feels like the dumpster fire ornament from 2020 might still be applicable to 2021. But not over here in my housing/digital marketing bubble. I like it over here. It’s full of record breaking numbers, growth, optimism and endless opportunities. It’s also conspicuously absent of any major attention grabbing headlines. This week brings […]

I’m back, and full of interesting news for the week. Thanksgiving wasn’t typical but it was nice nonetheless. There were copious amounts of food and drink consumed and a great deal of time spent lounging in my house coat enjoying snuggles with my kids. A nice refuel to help set up for a productive week, […]
