Are Your Appliances and Gadgets "Electricity Guzzlers"?

Judi Morgan, San Antonio, TX Real Estate (Kimberly Howell Properties) — Wed, 18 May 2011 21:11:00 -0700

We ALL have more appliances and gadgets these days. Here are some tips on how to keep your "electricity guzzlers" in check and save a few dollars every month.

Turning off TVs and Computers when they aren't in use, can save you money.

Desktop computers use 60 to 250 watts of electricity - turn off your computer and monitor when you're not using them.

A Laptop Computer uses 15 to 45 watts of electricity an hour - consider using a laptop instead of a desktop computer.

Computers use 1 to 6 watts in standby mode - set your computer to auto-sleep instead of using a screensaver - screensavers do not save electricity.

Use power strips for your home electronics - turn the power strips off when you're not using the TV, DVD, etc. Even in standby mode, home electronics use several watts of electricity.

Unplug the cell phone charger(s) when you're not charging your cell phone - even when it's not charging your cell phone, it is using electricity.

Use an electric fan. They cost less than .01 an hour to run; and when you use it with air conditioning, fans can improve your comfort level by 8 to 10 degrees.

Check the water heater for leaks and for property thermostat setting. The recommended temperature for our area is 140 degrees. Use a meat thermometer under hot running water to check the temperature.

Replace high-wattage incandescent bulbs with low-wattage compact fluorescent lights (CFL).

Change the filer on the heating and cooling system twice a month during warm summer months.

If your air conditioning system is 15 to 20 years old, consider replacing it. Check out CPS Energy air conditioning rebates at cpseergy.com.

Do you have some energy saving tips you'd like to share? Add them in the comment section and I'll include them on this list.

Back where I started...

Judi Morgan, San Antonio, TX Real Estate (Kimberly Howell Properties) — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 14:01:38 -0700

A few years ago I left the company I had started my real estate career with. I had worked hard and was ranked #3 in the company when I left -- looking for greener pastures. WHY in the world was I looking for greener pastures when I was doing very well where I was?

I still don't have an answer to that question -- except that I was influenced by some other 'friends' who suggested we form a Team at another company. I trusted them and made the move only to have one of them not move as planned and the other to do his own thing at the new office and ignore me. I was at that offiice for about 9 months when I decided it wasn't the company I wanted to be associated with and moved to another company. I loved the new company at first -- but, then realized that wasn't where I wanted to be either. I had been contacted by the company I had started with that the door was always open for me to go back -- and I considered it but decided to try another franchise I'd always thought I'd like to be associated with. Loved the company and the owner/broker and the office was small and comfortable; but it was so far from my house and closed on Saturday & Sunday so if I needed to meet clients there on weekends I had to go open up the office and meet them in an empty office -- but I stayed there for over a year.

Some of my friends from the first company I was with started asking me to go back and I knew I had an open invitation from management to go back. One of my favorite lenders took me to lunch and encouraged me to go back to my first company. I began thinking of it seriously and one day on my way to a training class at the current office; I was talking to my husband on the phone (speaker phone) and I said (out of the blue), "I think it's time for me to go home -- back to Prudential Don Johnson Co., REALTORS." He agreed and I thought about it more during the training class and the following day I stopped in for a visit and spoke with the manager and asked if they had space for me because I was thinking about going back. The answer was, "Yes, they always had space for me."

So the following Monday I made the change. I've been back at Prudential Don Johnson Co., REALTORS since early April and it's wonderful to be back HOME! There are a lot of new agents in the office as well as some of the agents from when I was there before. I even got my old office space back and I'm sharing it with 2 good friends who were there when I was there before.

I'm looking forward to staying at Prudential Don Johnson Co., REALTORS for a very long time.

FIESTA 2009 - San Antonio, TX - The Battle of Flowers Parade

Judi Morgan, San Antonio, TX Real Estate (Kimberly Howell Properties) — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 23:49:59 -0700

San Antonio, TX is in the middle of celebrating FIESTA! Well, actually, we're on the downhill side FIESTA and tomorrow is Battle of Flowers Day. How do we celebrate -- with a parade of course. The first Battle of Flowers Parade was held in 1891 to honor the heroes of the battle of The Alamo and San Jacinto. The first parade had horse-drawn carriage and bicycles decorated with fresh flowers and the participants pelted each other with flowers. The parade has been held every year since 1891 with the exception of 1918 (World War I) and 1942 thru 1945 (World War II).

The Woman's Club of San Antonio is one organization that participates in The Battle of Flowers Parade. Each year 3 members are chosen (by the club President) to ride in the parade. The past 8 or so years, members have ridden in a Red, 1928 Ford Touring Car. This year is no exception -- the car was at The Woodward House (home to The Woman's Club) today undergoing it's transformation.

This is what the car looked like when "she" arrived at The Woodward House about 10:00 AM this morning.

This is what the car looks like tonight and during the Parade tomorrow.

Isn't "she" beautiful? All dressed up and ready to be in The Battle of Flowers Parade. :) Oh, I almost forgot the best part. I get to ride in this car in The Battle of Flowers Parade! I'm so excited, I probably won't be able to sleep tonight. We three ladies have coordinated our outfits for the day to go with the theme assigned our "float" -- "Texas Wildflowers". My hat is all decorated and ready -- a friend, Laura Sistrunk, decorated it for me this morning while I took care of some things at the Clubhouse.

Before. . .

After. . . :) Isn't it beautiful?!?

You'll be able to watch The Battle of Flowers Parade LIVE right here -- it'll be on from 1:00 to 4:00 PM tomorrow, Friday, April 24th -- which is Battle of Flowers Day. Oh, we're at the end of the parade -- yep, 3rd from the end (of the parade).

FIESTA 2009 - San Antonio, TX

Judi Morgan, San Antonio, TX Real Estate (Kimberly Howell Properties) — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 01:09:54 -0700

Ahhhh, FIESTA in San Antonio, TX -- there's nothing like it! Live here for a few years, and you can't help but get caught up in the fun and the history of FIESTA.

I'm a member of The Woman's Club of San Antonio -- which is a Charter Member of the San Antonio FIESTA Commission. Our Club hosts several FIESTA Events every year. Back in October of 2008, a committee was named to design our Annual FIESTA Pins & Medals. I was fortunate enough to be chosen to be on the committee and was chairman of the committee. We had a short meeting and decided to use a sculpture created by a former member of our club, Waldine Tauch. We placed the sculpture in front of a floral arrangement of white roses (our Club flower) and took pictures at different angles. I then, emailed the pictures to a graphic artist who created the initial design from the photos and emailed it back to me. After several meetings and changes, we had our final design which I presented to the Woman's Club Board of Directors for approval before placing the order.

We started with this. . .

Here's the 2009 FIESTA Pin/Medal for The Woman's Club of San Antonio. . .

Waldine was born in Schulenburg, Texas on January 28, 1892, her father was a photographer. The family moved to a ranch in Menard County and their home was a stop for the stage hack, or rental carriage. Her uncle supplied fresh horses and her mother cooked breakfast for the travelers. Waldine's carvings were displayed on a shelf around the dining room. Two travelers were so impressed with her work they influenced the family to move to Brady so the budding sculptor could have an artistic education. Mrs. F. W. Henderson, who had induced the family to move, wrote Pompeo Coppini about taking a new student. He declined. "No! Girls are not good pupils. They work one or two years, then quit. They get married. I lose all my labor." Mrs. Henderson persisted and eventually sent him a piece of Tauch's work-small enough to be easily mailed, yet intricate enough to be impressive. When Coppini received the box, opened it, pulled out the padding, and found still another box full of padding, he thought at first that a trick had been played upon him. But when he finally reached the tiny piece--depicting Little Red Riding Hood with her basket and the wolf-he accepted her immediately. Coppini invited her to live in the spacious home he and his wife had in San Antonio. Waldine came to town on June 10, 1910, just a few weeks before she graduated from high school. She feared that a postponement might change Coppini's mind. She made a promise to her mentor that she would give up marriage and family so she could give her complete devotion to her creative work-a promise she never broke. Waldine never regretted her promise, one that brought her to recognition as an artist of national stature.

The Coppinis moved to New York in 1922 and Tauch joined them there the next year. She created a statue of the four LeSueur Smith children in Pelham Manor. The late Mrs. Eli Hertzberg traveled from San Antonio to New York to pose for a bust by Tauch. The piece is located in the Tuesday Musical Club building.

Twelve years later, the Coppinis and Tauch moved back to San Antonio because of the Texas Centennial and the great amount of work they received from it.

She became an internationally known sculptor of life-size statues such as Gen. Douglas MacArthur at Howard Payne U., Moses Austin in San Antonio's City Hall Square, the Texas Ranger of Today-now in downtown Dallas. Waldine lived to be 94; she was a Club member until her stroke in October 1985. Her biography is found in From Chalk to Bronze by Alice Hutson in 1978.

Beautiful Sunrise in Helotes, TX

Judi Morgan, San Antonio, TX Real Estate (Kimberly Howell Properties) — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 20:59:35 -0700

I got up early one morning a few weeks ago and noticed this beautiful view out of my breakfast room window. I grabbed my camera and ran outside! I just couldn't pass this beautiful opportunity up -- thought I'd share it you all. :)

MARDI GRAS IN SAN ANTONIO, TX. . .

Judi Morgan, San Antonio, TX Real Estate (Kimberly Howell Properties) — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 12:28:09 -0800

Just because you're in San Antonio, TX and not in New Orleans, LA (NOLA) doesn't mean you don't have an opportunity to celebrate Mardi Gras.

I love Mardi Gras -- the colors (purple, green & gold), the music, the festivities. Yep, I decorate my house for Mardi Gras -- but then, I am originally from Louisiana so it makes sense, right. I can't always get back to Louisiana to enjoy the Mardi Gras Parties and Parades so I bring Mardi Gras to San Antonio.

I've been a member of The Woman's Club of San Antonio since I moved here 12 years ago (1997). We've had a couple of Mardi Gras Parties at the club during that time. This year we had another one and I had the privilege of helping plan the event and even in preparing the food we served for this year's Mardi Gras Party. I also loaned them all of my Mardi Gras decorations and we had a great time decorating The Woodward House. The Party was Saturday, February 21, 2009 at The Woodward House on San Pedro.

Our Menu included:

Assorted Appetizers (prepared by members)

Mixed Green Salad w/assorted Dressings

Jambalaya (chicken, pork & sausage)

Shrimp Etouffee (over Rice)

Red Beans & Rice

French Bread & Alligator Bread

Desserts

Bread Pudding w/Whiskey Sauce

King Cake

Pecan Bars

Bourbon Balls

Pecan Pralines

We began the evening by greeting our guests with Mardi Gras Beads as they arrived -- I had ordered plenty to use for decorations and to share with our guests. We had a wonderful Jazz Quartet playing downstairs during the cocktail hour and while we enjoyed the fabulous food prepared by members of the club.

After dinner, we moved upstairs, to the Ballroom, where we had set up the Dessert Tables along with another table for the Coffee, Hurricane Punch, and Wine. The Jazz Quartet continued to play as members and guests danced, bid on the Silent Auction Gift Baskets prepared by the Club's Round Tables and enjoyed the Desserts.

One of the highlights of the evening was when the Quartet started playing "When the Saint's Come Marching In"!!!! I just happened to be standing up talking to a group of guests when the music started -- I remember "moving to the music" and then . . . there was a line of people behind me and we were dancing around the ballroom!!! (I don't know if anyone got pictures of this -- it was soooo much fun!) :)

Everyone has been talking about the Mardi Gras Party all week!!! The husbands of our members were coming up to us at the end of the evening, asking us to have another Mardi Gras Party next year!! It's already on the calendar! :)

LAISSEZ LES BONS TEMPS ROULER!!!

(I'm sorry I don't have pictures of the Party to share with you all. My camera decided to quit working when we were leaving the house for the party. :( I could not get the battery to recharge or turn the camera on. :) Some of our members had their cameras and lots of photos were taken. I've put out a request for pictures to be emailed to me. If I get some, I'll add them to this post.)

Remembering the The Alamo

Judi Morgan, San Antonio, TX Real Estate (Kimberly Howell Properties) — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 23:44:09 -0800

It was February 23, 1836, when General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna and his army caught the defenders of the Alamo by surprise. The Texians and Tejanos had prepared to defend the Alamo together and were undaunted. Commander of the Alamo, William B. Travis sent couriers out to communities in Texas with pleas for help -- only one of the couriers was successful in bringing back help. Charles Despallier, a 24 year old originally from Louisiana, left the Alamo sometime around February 25, 1836, and returned with the 36 men from the Gonzales Ranging Company of Mounted Volunteers on March 1, 1836. Despallier died in the battle at the Alamo on March 6, 1836.

The final assault of the 13 day siege came before daybreak on March 6, 1836, as the Mexican soldiers appeared out of the darkness and headed toward the walls of the Alamo. The defenders were able to beat back several attacks. The Mexicans regrouped and scaled the walls and rushed into the compound. They captured a cannon and aimed it at the Long Barrack and church and blasted open the barricaded doors. By sunrise, Santa Anna was able to enter the Alamo compound to survey the damage.

Have you ever wondered about those brave men who gave up their lives fighting for Texas to be free and independent? You can read about them here.

Tomorrow is the 173^rd Anniversary of the Fall of the Alamo. Over the next weekend and through the month of March there are Memorial Events planned at the Alamo, of the 7 events, 5 of them are FREE and Open to the Public.

Remembering the Alamo – Annual Memorial Service

Judi Morgan, San Antonio, TX Real Estate (Kimberly Howell Properties) — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 22:29:53 -0800

Today is the 137^th Anniversary of the fall of the Alamo. There was a re-enactment of the battle this morning at 6:00 AM. There are other FREE Events commemorating the Battle throughout the weekend.

I had the honor of attending an "invitation only" event this afternoon. As a member of The Woman's Club of San Antonio, I was able to attend the Annual Memorial Service for the Heroes of the Alamo this afternoon at 2:30 pm along with other members of our Club.

I've been to the Alamo many times, always with friends or family wanting to visit when they were here. I always enjoy my visit there and it never fails that I learn something new about the buildings that remain standing or about the battle. I've always been fascinated by the battle and how 189 men could hold off thousands for 12 days before finally being overtaken by them during a pre-dawn assault.

Today, we entered The Alamo and were ushered to our seats. I was able to sit and look around at the inside of the building, remembering things I'd learned on previous tours and things I've learned in reading about the battle. My favorite part of the ceremony was the Roll Call of States and Nations - where the flags of each State of the Union and Country representing the birthplace of each of these men were presented - Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, Denmark, England, Germany, Ireland, and Wales.

If you live in the San Antonio, TX area and haven't visited The Alamo or haven't been there recently, this is a great weekend to visit and learn a little Texas and American History. There are events scheduled all weekend and it's going to be another beautiful Texas weekend, why not take advantage of it.

Judi Morgan, San Antonio, TX Real Estate (Kimberly Howell Properties) — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 01:00:14 -0800

Have you ever seen a real Texas Longhorn Cattle Drive??? I haven't! For those of us who have never had the opportunity to experience one close up and personal - we have that opportunity this weekend - as spectators - my kind of cattle drive!

Just like the "old pioneer" days, cowboys will "drive" a herd of Texas Longhorns right through the heart of San Antonio, where only trails existed 100 years ago. I'd really love to get downtown to see this event.

The Cattle Drive begins at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, January, 31, 2009, cowboys will guide the cattle from Houston Street (from Christus Santa Rosa Hospital/I-35) all the way to The Alamo!

It's a FREE Event, so round up the family and friends and head to downtown San Antonio to enjoy it! Don't forget your camera!!!

I don't think I'll be able to get downtown for the Cattle Drive, so if you go and take pictures, come back to my post and post your pictures to share with everyone!!!
