Let me ask you a question then paint a picture of a scenario that you could be faced with someday.  Here we go…….. What would happen if the foundation of your house sunk down on one side by just a couple of inches?  Would it be reasonable to suggest that your floorboards would creak a little?  Would you expect to start seeing cracks in your drywall?  How about the windows?  Would you expect them to open smoothly or not so smoothly?  Would it be reasonable to expect there to be problems with you roof as a result of this shift? As you probably have guessed, the PROBLEM is a...

You know, it’s not everyday that you see a business professional WALK THEIR TALK.  And notice, I did say, professional.  Though the implication is that one would represent their business in such a way as to make a lasting first impression to others, that’s not always the case.  But with one of our newer members to the chapter, she clearly walks that line of professionalism! Doran Poma is our newest Esthetician/Makeup Artist. She gave a presentation to our group a couple of weeks ago to give an overview of her services.  Quite frankly, as thorough of a job that she did, she...

Valerie Hassler our chapter’s HandyGirl spoke on electrical safety. If you have appliances or equipment that needs juice Valerie has the expertise to power you up. If you have breakers that often pop you can’t take care of the issue by putting a larger breaker in; this will cause an overload to happen and can cause a fire in the home. Never bypass breakers or put more of a load than an outlet can handle. Instead call Valerie and let her insure that your electrical needs are met in a safe manner. Valerie also spoke on Dimmer Switches in the home. If you have a dimmer switch that is...

Long-Term Care Insurance

This morning, we were presented with the exuberant topic of Long-Term Care Insurance by Mary Myles, of Primerica Ins.  Using props such as adult size diapers and a walker were enough to impact us on the gravity of the consequences for ignoring such later stage-0f-life.  We all may have shared the thought of our kids taking care of us someday………..but the reality is, are they who we really want to change our poopie diapers and carry us to and from the bath?  Why should we burden those we love?  Won’t it be hard enough for them to watch our deteriorating health...
