Welcome to my December email!

Wow, does anyone else feel like this year just flew by?? Holiday season is upon us and it certainly feels more festive with some snow on the ground. It's not likely to stay, but we can enjoy it while it lasts.

There are some terrific holiday events happening this month, from the traditional such as The Nutcracker to something more unusual like the Fan Expo Holiday Market! You'll find a link to that blog below along with some fun Holiday Date Ideas.

Also below, Part 2 of a blog documenting the ongoing renovation of a condo I have and the 10 Things to Consider BEFORE Renovating.

Plus, don't miss the detail on a fantastic 2-level, loft-style, suite I have available for lease at Richmond and Sherbourne.

Have a wonderful holiday season and all the best for 2020!
