@Dirtdog I met a medical Doctor who said they have a gluten allergy, then we talked about Europe and how he loves croissants in Paris…I’m like you don’t have a a gluten allergy if you’re eating those you’re allergic to the enriched flour or the pesticides we put on them. 🤯
I want to dispell a big myth. You don't have to be
18 years old to get a scholarship. I was 37 when I received my full ride scholarship from The CCIM Institute Foundation to earn my CCIM Designation. Guess what Scholarships are now open and here is a count down schedule for what is happening in the Chicago area.

@realEstateTrent My first game I went to was a Giants game as a kid. I’m a fan since.
We limit device use to much. Let’s be real, if Babe Ruth grew up with an IPad he would be bulkier and likely wouldn’t have played baseball.
I know it’s yuck here but I realized this morning I’ve been doing real estate polls every Monday for the past 2.5 years consistently and started sporadically before that on @LinkedIn.
Thank you to all those that participated and continue to do so.
Our first pediatrician kicked us out for not staying on schedule after 2 weeks. Not going 7 Vax to a 5 lbs baby. Our family doctor agreed to alternate schedule. Not anti vax just common sensers, space them out and most important first.
One pediatrician when looking for a new one told me…they could get hepatitis B, I’m like ok how? He replied. If a child with a high viral count attacks and bites her breaking skin she could get it. I replied, it’s more likely to have a reaction than for zombie kids to start attacking each other.
