May Day

May Day, as a day of celebration has ancient origins, and it can relate to many customs that have survived into modern times. I remember as a school teacher, all the grade school children went around the May Pole. Many of these customs are due to May Day being a cross-quarter day, meaning that it falls approximately halfway between the spring equinox and summer solstice.

May is here and if you haven't done it already, stop and smell a few flowers! They have been hidden beneath the snow for many months. Just Take a minute from your busy life to appreciate something small and beautiful. It doesn't take a lot of time and it's a great reminder to be thankful for the little things. I hope that you're enjoying the beginning of spring.

In addition to Real Estate, my daughter and I have started a cleaning business, called "Steams My Team". We use a hot, dry steam machine that uses 299 degree water to clean without using any chemicals - GREEN cleaning!
