Last week I worked on Maintenace Notebooks for our 3 properties. Complete with photos of all HVAC, Electrical, Lighting, Gates etc. I still have some maintenace notes to include with them and some other site layouts with notes for snow removal etc. But got a good start on it.

I need to work on my procedures manual.

I just wasted a bunch of time trying to figure out how to put my logo in a signature line for my email. Doesn't seem possible in yahoo.

Ain't technology great Julie?

I just created a Word doc with all the info in it. On appropriate emails, I Select all, copy, paste, done!

I learned the hard way about certain signature files also. What a pain.

That is a good suggestion- sounds much easier-- and I learned before that I don't want that info on all emails. Had a guy from a dating website call my office out of the blue and I was on vacation a few years ago-- my dad took the call. No more internet dating for me!

I am mailing out postcards for 6 month price guarantee- Lock in special spring rates- prices reduced on most sizes.

No, because she would list everything and talk about how I do too much and that would get her started on how I need to take a break.

I only listed the high spots, and left out all the small stuff that keeps me going every day.

Default Honey Do...

Honey Do lists abound I'm sure.

If any of you are really bored give me a jingle, I've got plenty of household chores to be done at several homes. No, not all mine unfortunately!

No Terri, I've not located a 'green' fixture that is suitable as of yet. We're still looking and tweaking every solar manufacturer we can locate. Do you know of something?

110 or 220? I SHOULD know this for sure, but I believe almost positively they are 110.
