2 weeks to go and counting .............

Well, you heard it. That's right, just 2 weeks to closing. The countdown is still moving ahead, and we should have blast-off Nov 13th, day-o-closing.

We're going to use a rental truck, so our day-o-packing up will be Saturday, 11/11. Then we'll actually head out 11/14, bright and early. If you interested in any of the stuff listed in the previous blog (scroll down), just let me know. Most of it's already on Craig's List for the DFW area. It's also posted on http://www.shagmiser.com/furniture. The video storage cabinet has been sold.

Does everyone have our new beach address? If not, send me an email & I'll send it to you. I don't want to post it here, for obvious reasons.

Also, have you found the new Jukebox site? - nothing commercial - just a cool site to listen to oldies while you're frettering away on the IH. It's at http://shagmiser.com/windfalls/oldies.html. Enjoy.

Hey all - do me a favor and check out the hyperlinks over to the right. Especially the one about Creating Multiple Streams of Income and Dick's Cool Little Website. I either created them or used a template to create them.

Enough for now - we'll talk again.

One month to go and we close!!!!


Check out that addition to our sign - we're "Contract Pending!"
That's right sportsfans, we're only a month away from our closing date of November 13th. We're heading on down that highway in 1 month's time. And, we're already making moving plans, checking estimates, doing some early packing, and planning for a final yard sale in a week's time (I think). We want to sell off some items we don't want or need @thebeach.

Also, we have some rather large items we'd like to sell as well, odds and ends we're not taking with us. If you would like to see what we're selling (just in case you might could use one of our items), check the DFW Craig's List, search using Shagmiser and you should bring up all the stuff I've posted out there. And, no, the bar's not for sale. But, we are selling:
  • my rather large executive desk (the one in the back den),
  • the large, kitchen refridgerator,
  • the entertainment TV center,
  • Susan's grandfather clock (great new low price),
  • those 2 eight foot folding tables (great for parties and garage sales),
  • a video storage cabinet,
  • a double dresser (no mirror),
  • full sized microwave and rolling microwave cart.

How 'bout them apples? I plan on building a web page to picture these items and I'll post the URL here when's it's ready.

BTW - I've put up a new post to my Shagmiser Blog - check it out.

I've got a new niche site (kind of) that could be useful to some - Honey! We're Rich! I've already asked some of you to critique it. Thanks for your feedback.

Now, since it is Friday the 13th, let's stay with the program here. Many of you have heard me telll tales of the famous Windigo. Here are a couple of references:

By Jove, I think We've Done It !!!!!



That's right. Their "backout" deadline has passed, and we're on our way to closing, mid November. Our special thanks to Connie Thomas, our RE agent, St. Patrick, and especially St. Joseph. And a special thanks to Susan, without whose help the house would never have looked so good.

Foundation's done, and the only thing left to do is some small minor fix-up's we promised to do. Now, it's pack time. We're @thebeach as I write this. I'm behind the window in the front office, upper left above the car. This is the actual house that will be our new home. We're trying to figure out where to put stuff, what to put into storage, what to toss, and (most important), how to start expanding for future guests. If you'd like to see more beach house pictures, visit http://www.digitalshores.com and click on the Hale Beach street sign. Do it quick before my video distracts you.

For those of you who don't know, we're moving to North Myrtle Beach, S.C., to a house we bought a little over 2 years ago and in which my sister's been living since, taking care and letting us visit. It's about 5 blocks off the beach in a secluded residential neighborhood. Not bad!

Did you all check out Ralph's music new venture - the Burn Lounge? It's pretty amazing.

Now, heads up, I've just joined a new networking community space called the Opportunity Meeting Place (dot) Com and it's a "MySpace" kind of place for Internet Marketers of every ilk, a place to get together and swap stories, both success and scams.

And, I've still got a few 30 day prepaid offers left for Hello World and the world of video emails and streaming internet videos. Their V5.0 is due out this weekend, so now's a good time to get in before the rush. Once my prepaid codes are gone, they're gone. My special site with examples of streaming video, including me, myself & I.
