If you’ve been following along, you may remember my recent plumbing adventures. 😂

My kitchen faucet decided it had reached retirement age, so I’ve recently become VERY appreciative of the simple luxury of having a working sink.

And I love my new sink.

But it does not have a waterfall veggie-washing spray.

It does not have the magical little cup-washer thingy that restaurants have.

And honestly… I didn’t even know I needed either of those things until I found myself standing in a home I was viewing and playing with this ridiculously fancy sink. 😂

Because apparently, when you’re a REALTOR®, you don’t just look at the kitchen.

You turn on the faucets.
Open the cabinets.
Check out the storage.
Notice the little details.
And occasionally stand there washing an imaginary vegetable because LOOK AT THIS THING. 😂

These are the fun little features that can make a house feel a little more special—and sometimes, they’re the things you don’t even know to look for until someone points them out.

So yes, I may have recently survived a plumbing fiasco…

…but apparently I’m already out here flirting with fancy faucets again. 😂

What random home feature would make you ridiculously happy?

🚨OPEN HOUSE ALERT🚨

This beautifully renovated home is the definition of move-in ready—and the updates are extensive.

But let’s talk about the features that really stand out:

☕ A gorgeous updated kitchen with new cabinetry, upgraded countertops, tile backsplash, pantry, coffee bar, and GE slate-finish stainless appliances.

🛏️ TWO oversized primary suites!
One on the main level and another upstairs with its own private bath, walk-in closet, fireplace, sitting/flex area AND a built-in beverage station with mini fridge. 👏

🧺 Upstairs laundry room with storage cabinetry—and the LG washer & dryer convey!

🌿 Indoor-outdoor living done right.
New sliding doors lead to an expansive deck, covered pavilion, fire pit, and level backyard. Basically… your future excuse for hosting all the things. 🔥

☀️ Large picture windows bring in tons of natural light, with built-in shades for privacy and energy efficiency.

✨ And then there are the updates:
New flooring • Fresh paint • Updated bathrooms • Glass-enclosed showers • New windows & doors • Custom trim & finishes • Two new HVAC systems • New roof • New water heater

And the location? Convenient to Ringgold and East Brainerd shopping, dining, and everyday necessities, all while being in the Catoosa County school district.

This one really is the whole package—beautifully updated, flexible, and with an outdoor space you’ll actually want to use.

I love this time of year! So many great festivals and things to do all within an hour or two from home base.

On September 19th in North Georgia, the Blue Ridge Blues & BBQ Festival returns bringing a full day of smoky barbecue, live blues music, and festival fun to downtown Blue Ridge. Celebrating its 15th year, the event brings together award-winning pitmasters, barbecue vendors, live music, and a lively mountain-town setting along West Main Street. Gates open at 11:30 a.m., and music runs from noon until 9 p.m. Admission is $20 at the gate, while children under 12 get in free. The music starts with Breaking Point at noon, followed by The Cazanovas at 1:30 p.m., The Big Dogs at 3:30, Cara Grainger at 5:30, and Emanuel Casablanca, “The Bad Boy of Blues,” at 7:30. Between performances, you can grab barbecue, browse BBQ-related vendors, and enjoy the festival atmosphere throughout downtown. The weekend begins two days earlier. A free Kickoff Party takes place September 17th from 5 to 6:30 p.m. at the Blue Ridge Farmers Market with food and drinks. On September 18th, BBQ at Old Toccoa Farm runs from 5 to 9 p.m. with food, drinks, live blues, and proceeds helping local children in need.

Do you remember where you were or what you were doing on this day in 2001?

There are so many stories of survival, loss, courage, and sacrifice being shared today, and somehow, hearing them still brings it all right back.

9/11 was a day that changed our country forever. It reminded us that we are not impenetrable. That evil exists. That life can change in an instant.

But it also reminded us of something else.

People showed up.

First responders ran toward danger. Strangers helped strangers. People opened their homes. Communities came together. Ordinary people did extraordinary things because someone else needed them.

Twenty-five years later, I think that is worth remembering just as much as the tragedy itself.

Remember those who were lost.
Honor those who ran toward the danger.
Remember the families who were forever changed.
And remember the way people showed up for one another when it mattered most.

We should never forget. 🇺🇸
