Focus on important matters

-

One of the mixed blessings of fall is the opportunity for clean-up and preparation for the change in weather that goes along with the change in seasons. While it can be a lot of work and effort, there is also a sense of accomplishment knowing I am one step closer to being prepared for what will inevitably come later in the month.

For example, this morning before sitting down to write, I took advantage of crisp, clear, dry weather to wash windows, inside and out, all around the house. Even though dirty windows would have masked the soon to be bleak landscape of winter, having them clean means the ever decreasing sunlight as the days get shorter will shine unimpeded. Plus, it felt really good to check another item off my never-ending “to do” list.

Homeowners Associations need to do some work to prepare for upcoming changes, too.

Our State Legislature, which has difficulty focusing on important matters like budgets and financial solvency, seems to be able to easily agree on new ways to micromanage homeowners associations. To provide some insights into what is on tap, including ramifications of the delayed Illinois Ombudsman Act, Attorney Pat Costello will join us at our meeting on November 19. More details on the meeting will be at www.napervillehomeowners.com and in our newsletter. Hope to see you there!

Meanwhile, I am looking forward to the November 8 elections (and since I am writing this with a week to go in October) the conclusion of the World Series. Somewhat selfishly my anticipation has little to do with the results, but rather a strong desire to see social media return to some degree of normalcy as, hopefully, political rants and sniping will cease, along with incessant Cub fan posts.

Be kind and be a good neighbor!
