Dear Friends,

A few years ago Kate Nowak awoke in the middle of the night and took her pen and paper from the nightstand. She said a gentle soul-whisper poured forth the words to May You Be Blessed. And the rest, as they say, is history.

From the words of this beautiful blessing, Kate created a short 3 minute movie with the goal of blessing one million people who watched it on the internet in one year. Since then, millions around the world have watched and have been inspired by Kate’s words...including me.

This beautiful movie and the new Simple Truths gift book titled: May You Be Blessed is not about religious beliefs...it is about joy, gratitude, appreciation, kindness and love.

So sit back, turn up your speakers, and watch May You Be Blessed. I guarantee you’ll be blessed by doing so. So just click on the link below, but...make sure you share it with your friends, family and co-workers. It’ll make their day!

To Life,

If you would like to update your e-mail address: click here.

1. Do not list it with a realtor as you do not need to advertise your home in the Multiple Listing Services.
2. Price your home just a little less than the high of May 2006.
3. Do not stage your home.
4. Do not change your green carpet, rather offer a credit to the buyer.
5. Make the home available for showings by appointment only and don't give your agent permission to place a lock box on the home.
6. Make it very clear that you don't need to move until after school is out in June.
7. Sell your home in "AS IS" condition, the buyers can repair the items you neglected for the last 15 years.
8. While the home is being shown you follow the buyers into every room and let them know of all the special features each room has.
9. When your realtor sends you the most recent sales to update you, you justify your price, rather than listen to the professional.
10. When the home is shown, the TV is on and your kids are running around, the dog jumps on the prospective buyer.

SAMLARC ARENA OPENS

On September 16, 2007 the SAMLARC Board of Directors officially opened the SAMLARC Arena (formally Skate Central) in Central Park for use by Arena Soccer Leagues. The expanded use of the Arena to include soccer gives more field space to this very popular sport.

The AYSO-630 League will be hosting the youth arena soccer teams. RSM Arena Soccer, a brand new league to the area, is proud to host the first organized outdoor adult sport in SAMLARC. For more information on either league check out their websites at: www.ayso630.com or www.rsmarenasoccer.com.

Both leagues presented short exhibition games to an eager crowd. Arena soccer takes place on a shorter field where the walls are in play, making for a fast paced and exciting game.
