WRA supporting landlords! This was a case where a landlord forgot to include a phrase, which the tenant then tried to exploit to get all rent monies refunded plus "damages" even though the tenant incurred no actual damages or harm.

🚴Not every electric bike is legally considered an e-bike in Wisconsin.
Before you ride, know the difference:
• Class 1 e-bike: Pedal assist only, up to 20 mph
• Class 2 e-bike: Throttle + pedal assist, up to 20 mph
• Class 3 e-bike: Pedal assist only, up to 28 mph, rider must be age 16 or older
In Wisconsin, Class 1, 2, and 3 e-bikes must have functional pedals and a motor rated at 750 watts or less.

Electric dirt bikes and other off-highway e-motos are different. They are not considered Class 1, 2, or 3 e-bikes under state law and are generally not allowed on bike lanes, sidewalks, trails, or public roads unless they meet separate legal requirements.

Ride smart and ride legal:
• Wear a helmet
• Use lights and reflective gear when riding at night
• Obey traffic laws and signals
• Yield to pedestrians
• Use bike lanes and paths where allowed
• Keep your e-bike in safe working condition

Please take a few minutes to learn what you’re riding before heading out. A safer community starts with informed riders.

There are two key commute thresholds where it makes sense to seriously consider a move: the 30-minute mark, and the 90-minute stretch. 🚦

Why do these time frames matter so much? Commutes beyond these points can take a toll on your well-being. The first threshold can bring chronic stress; the second can leave you feeling cut off from friends and family, with less time for the things that recharge you.

Relocating closer to work or loved ones isn’t the only answer. Options like flexible schedules can bring surprising relief. It all comes down to whether your daily routine leaves you energized or just worn down.

If your commute has started to affect your mood or your time with those who matter most, have you considered what might make your day-to-day life better? Tell me your thoughts below or send this to someone who’s at a crossroads.

Moooove over whiners! June 4 is National Cheese Day! An encyclopedia of cheese will cover the alphabet and broaden your vocabulary. It will undoubtedly contain more varieties of cheese than what's found at the local grocer.

When your home no longer feels like a true reflection of you, it's often about more than just clutter. 🏡

Sometimes, no matter how many bins you buy or how carefully you organize, your space can start feeling cramped.

Even careful decluttering might leave you feeling like you're simply rearranging stress rather than creating comfort. If you've noticed the energy in your home feels heavy or cramped, it could be your environment no longer fits your stage of life.

What stands out from both research and experience is that small steps, like organizing your favorite corner or letting go of what no longer fits, can spark clarity.

But when those changes don’t bring back the freedom you want, it may be time to imagine a space that truly matches who you are today.

That honest assessment can lead to a healthier living environment.✨

Have you ever felt like your home stopped matching your lifestyle? What did you notice first?
