It's that time of year
Dear Santa,
Vicki Aubry, Realtor, ABR Mobile: 508-868-3625 Voicemail Pager: 508-365-4060 Email: Vicki.Aubry@NEMoves.com Website: www.VickiAubry.com I know it is time to start my Christmas list, so here goes…
My own personal list is very short - not even enough to mention as I am truly grateful for the wonderful family, friends and coworkers that I have in my life and the great clients I have had through the years. I am grateful for a nice place to live and wonderful neighbors.
However, I know some people who are in need so my wish list is for them…
Wish 1: I wish you could adjust the mortgage rates to 5 percent or even lower if you can manage it. There are buyers that really want to buy homes but are afraid of the times and for them my wish is the wonderful value they can unwrap for their family.
Wish 2: I wish you could get the credit markets back to normal as when these folks buy their homes they most likely might be doing some updating, so these buyers will put the unemployed contractors, manufacturers, truckers and others back to work.
Wish 3: My third wish is for the newly re-employed to start to buy the things they have needed but not been able to buy and begin to save some of their salaries again for a down payment on a house.
Wish 4: My fourth wish is for these buyers to see the value of energy efficien t appliances, windows and furnaces, and the benefit of renewable materials so the planet can start to benefit from these choices and more job creation will take place.
Wish 5: I also wish you could find us some efficient and safe forms of new power right in our own backyards to power these new appliances so we would not have to be importing all this foreign oil and indeed fighting over it.
Wish 6: I wish that as the need for oil decreases we bring our troops home to work on our own domestic issues such as disaster relief, repairing our roads and bridges, building new schools for the kids, and the like.
Wish 7: I wish that some of this money and skill would go toward our elders in a new type of environment that would keep them as active and engaged as possible and maintain their dignity throughout all of their days.
Wish 8: My eighth wish is for those without health care to be able to have it and indeed for those with it to be able to aff ord it and for it to be simplified so that sick people can focus on getting better not navigating the system or being denied care or medicines they need.
Wish 9: I wish that each person has the basic necessities of life - food, clothing and shelter - and that those that are lucky enough to have more than that appreciate it and share it with others less fortunate.
Wish 10: I know I ask for this every year, but this year especially, I wish for peace on earth.
Santa, I know that there is a lot here and it's a big list, but really I've been a very good girl all year, so I hope you can deliver.
I want to express my sincere thanks to all of my clients I worked with this year and appreciate any referral that could be sent my way for 2009! Just call me at 508-365-4060 or 508-868-3625.
Santa, I'll be waiting with chocolate chip cookies … I still believe!
Stay warm on your journey,
Vicki
