Resolutions of Gratitude

We all want to lose weight, get in shape, clean out our closets, watch less TV, and read more books. But this year, we’re resolving to practice gratitude for the world around us.

The theme of my resolutions is love. I plan to volunteer for causes I’m passionate about and help friends whenever they are in need. I’m also going to be more open with sharing compliments and perform at least one random act of kindness for another person every day. And I resolve to only share positive posts on social media!

My year is going to center around connection. I resolve to call my sisters more often, get together with neighbors for block parties and backyard barbecues, cook meals for friends and family, take more pictures of the people in my life, go on more hikes and appreciate nature, and sit down once a week to write thank you cards!

Giving thanks for our clients

With the short holiday work week, today is like Thursday, so we’re giving early thanks to the most important people in our world: our clients. Thank you for sharing your real estate journeys with us!

Did you know the first Thanksgiving lasted for three days? Imagine three straight days of Thanksgiving dinners, leftovers, and heartburn! Now imagine what it would be like to have no Thanksgiving dinner at all. Together, we can help all of our friends and neighbors have a happier holiday season by making a donation to a local food bank or volunteering in a community kitchen.

Did you know that Thanksgiving is commonly considered the origin of the “TV Dinner”? According to legend, the Swanson company had a bunch of frozen turkeys leftover from Turkey Day in 1953, so they packaged them up with veggies and sold them as individual meals. Of course, that’s not what really happened, according to the Smithsonian. But the truth isn’t as fun.
