About La Habra's Lowell Joint School District

La Habra has always been a good place to live and to grow up. We have wonderful people here. People are happy for the most part. Neighbors drop their extra lemons on the porch in a bag. One neighbor helped my dad retile his roof and ten years later he helped him again. Last month in June, one neighborhood of my parents named Connie heard that my sister died of cancer. She brought over at least five meals that week. She baked a dozen oatmeal cookies too. She dropped them off on the porch. She is one of the nicest neighbors I have ever known. Connie and my mom attended water coloring classes at an adult school in La Mirada. My twenty year old daughter Gen went with them a couple times. I wish she had gone more because she is very gifted in art.

My parents have lived on the same street since the homes were built in 1956. In the sixties we'd run and slip n' slide across the plastic sheet with the hose on the grass on a hot summer afternoon and have the time of our lives. If I tried that now I'd break my hip. Oh those fun old days. Now we have to be careful to conserve water. But you can have just as good a time at La Habra High School in the pool. It is open to the public and I know the entrance rate is reasonable. We lived near Sierra Vista School and every summer they had a recreation time. From 12:00 to 3:00 daily. We could check out a game or activity for free. They also had contests. I remember apple bobbing, pie eating, and chess contests. My brother had a newspaper and every morning my sister and I would help him fold 25 or 50 papers. We would then carefully put them in the bike pouch stacked straight up so he could just take off quickly on his bike. Sometimes we helped him collect the money too. That was the hardest part. We did it for free. I hope he appreciated it.

And so it is another hot summer year in La Habra California. There are at least 1000 more things I do not have room to put here that you can do in La Habra.

Now a days, you can't be to careful when preforming a notary. Did you know that you can now use a Government's employee's Id card that has been issued with in the last five years? The ID must have a photo of the person, a Number, and a discription of the person.

Also,, a subscribing witness can no longer appear before a notary public and prove identity based on personal knowledge. The subscribing witness must bring a credible witness. The credible witness must have identification, and prove identity by satisfactory evidence.

If you are in La habra, La Habra Heights, Fullerton. If you are in Orange County or Los Angeles County in Whittier, La Mirada, Buena park give me a call.

Something like...and keeping real estate sales in mind. "Invoke the master spirit of the earth. It is in exchanging the gifts of the earth that you shall find abundance and be satisfied. Paraphrasing..."Unless the exchange is in love and kind justice, it will lead to greed and hunger".

Well, the Prophet- knew what he was talking about. We are indeed suffering a lack of love...and there are people losing their homes and having to choose not to go hungry by walking away from a mortgage that will cause hunger and suffering. In less then 60 days there will be somewhere in the number of 70k more in foreclosure. As a real estate professional in 2002 to 2004 I was not aware of what would go wrong in our future because of the crazy real estate market prices soaring, but I felt that it wasn't right. It didn't feel good to me at all. I am an empathic when it comes down to it. For the most part it has only helped me with my own decisions and with the gut feeling for my clients decisions. When I feel a home could be a disastrous money pit problem...and they ask my opinion, I will tell them. I have always advised against adjustable rate loans mainly because I am a simple person and they don't make sense to me. You can try to divide professionalism with gut feeling, but you won't succeed. No one has a crystal ball to glance into the future, but we do have our intuitive instincts. When you don't listen to them you get into trouble.

Come see my August 7,8 & 9 at the Corn Festival In Central Park on La Habra BLVD.

Yes, I feel conflicted about loving Michael Jackson. I imagine as many 50 plus year olds who grew up with the infamous talented one of a kind celebrity. I know every word of every song...last night they played Ben...ohh I remember going to see the movie about a Rat and sobbing in tears. I sung that song until my cheeks were sore!

Then the lawsuit came about the alleged molestation of 3 boys. He paid off 20million. I'm still trying to figure out what is real...unfortunately we will never know. However, I have to say I believe Michael was a lost tortured soul who happened to have immense talent and drive. I will miss him...thinking about what he could have done in his later life. If he would have come out of the "closet" or not. Those things are no longer possible...unless there is a journal he wrote in. What a possibility!
