Onslow County NC Homes Talk

This was sent to me by a friend whose son is serving in Afghanistan.  Granted, it's a little long and moves a little slow but I promise you it is worth your time and I believe it will touch your heart.  I hope you'll take the time to watch it.

Dear Santa,
Thank you for taking the time to read my letter.  I am sure you are very busy checking and rechecking lists.  

You know I am a real estate agent and that this has been a challenging year for those of us in this business.  I am sure you have read in the paper and heard on tv and radio about the decline in sales in the housing market and all the problems in the lending industry. 

It's true, sales are off  in most areas and there are people having trouble making their mortgage payments.   However, there are still buyers out there who understand the market is ripe for those ready to buy and for this we are thankful.  

So, what should a real estate agent experiencing a slow market put on her Christmas list?  For me, it is simple because you see I am very blessed.  I have

• a loving family

• caring friends

•  loyal clients

• good health

•  a comfortable home

• plenty of food
  

•  a reliable car.

Dear Santa, my wish may not be as simple as some but if there is anything you can do to help me, I would surely appreciate it.  My wish is that

All agents and consumers have FAITH and HOPE in themselves, each other, our market and our country.

You see Santa, I believe that with faith and hope we will work through this challenging time and come out  more educated, better prepared,  more compassionate and ready to work and help our clients in a way that will best serve their needs.

Santa, if you were planning to bring me those beautiful, black leather Jimmy Choo boots that I saw and admired last month,  please don't...there must be a woman somewhere who needs boots more than I.

My closet is filled to the brim, I really don't need any more "stuff".   Thank you and Merry Christmas, Santa.

If you have been reading my blogs, you know that I live and work in Onslow County North Carolina home of Camp LeJeune Marine Base, New River Air Station and The Naval Hospital at Camp LeJeune all located in Jacksonville NC.   

Military families are my clients, friends, co-workers and neighbors.  I cannot begin to tell you how much respect and gratitude I  have for these families and their service to our country.  They sacrifice their lives for you and me!

If you ask most Americans if they support the troops, their answer would be "Yes".  I believe that is true in spirit but what do you (and most Americans) do to show their support?  Sadly, the answer is "NOTHING".  I urge you to take the few minutes it takes to send a thank you to military personnel serving overseas.

Xerox provides the card and instructions.  It's quick, easy and so appreciated by our Troops.   The site is "Let's Say Thanks".
Now go, do it!  Oh and one more thing you can do --- pray for our troops safe return.
