Fresh apples, squash, corn on the cob, and lots more goodies can be had at relatively low prices. Indulge yourself without feeling guilty.

Let's Talk TrashWe understand how busy everyone is but we cannot allow our residents to leave a bag of trash outside their apartment doors because they didn't have time to take it to the dumpster. If our maintenance department has to get your trash, you will be fined.

Be Safe, Keep SafeWe know that crime is around us, and it can even touch our community. But there are little steps we can take to reduce and prevent crime from happening. Keep your doors locked whenever you leave your apartment, and double- lock your doors at night. Make sure your vehicles are locked and avoid keeping valuables inside. Be aware of any suspicious persons. Parents, always keep an eye on your children. If you notice any suspicious activity, notify our office or, if necessary, call the police. Being safe will only enhance your wonderful stay here!

Happy Birthday!!We would like to wish our residents that are celebrating their birthdays this month a very Happy Birthday!! Stop by the office and wish Marilu a Happy Birthday!

Do you find yourself constantly putting things off? You are not alone! September 6th is Fight Procrastination Day. Everyone suffers from procrastination at one time or another.

For some, it is an ongoing battle. There are ways, however, to jump-start your to do list.Break tasks down into small tasks.Saying you need to organize your kitchen cabinets can seem like a huge job, but organizing just your silverware drawer may not be so bad. For every big job, make a list of all the parts that need to be done and tackle them one by one. Pretty soon, your big job will be completed without feeling so big.Know your weaknesses.Take a moment to think about your worst source of procrastination. Is it doing the laundry, making sales calls, planning for dinner? Make this job your number one priority of the day. By accomplishing this task first, you will free yourself up to move forward without it hanging over your head.Do you have 15 minutes to spare?Even in the busiest schedule, most people can find 15 minutes a day. Budget this short time to tackling a project that you’ve really wanted to get done, but never seem to get to. It seems like a short time, but it is amazing what can be accomplished in this short time. You may find that you spend even longer working on your project once you get started. Reward yourself for a job well done.Plan something nice for yourself--a movie, a special meal, a weekend away--but only do this if the project you’ve been putting off gets done. Share your goals with someone close to you and you will get encouragement along the way. Cure the problem.Recognize that while procrastination may be caused by simple laziness or boredom, often it is a sense of fear that keeps us from getting started. You may also feel overwhelmed or stressed in general. Take some time to examine whether eliminating some other tasks might help you feel less pressured. If it is fear that is stopping you, working through that anxiety first will help you prepare to get the job done. Most importantly, be ready to admit if the job you are trying to accomplish is really necessary after all. You may find that it is something you’d like to get done, but that doesn’t really need to be finished. Giving yourself a break may be the best way to get motivated in the long run, as you will be doing projects when you are more interested in them.

“Autumn, the year’s last, loveliest smile.” -William Cullen BryantseptemBer 2013Getting It All Done

There are more than 30 movies, big and small, set to open, here are my ‘Most Anticipated’ movies for September 2013! My short list includes: ‘Escape Plan’, an action/thriller starring Sylvester Stallone & Arnold Schwarzenegger, ‘Runner Runner’

a crime drama starring Ben Affleck & Anthony Mackie, ‘Enough Said’ James Gandolfini last movie, and ‘Prisoners’ crime/thriller Hugh Jackman & Jake Gyllenhaal.

Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2 ~ Flint Lockwood (Bill Hader) now works at The Live Corp Company for his idol Chester V. (Will Forte) but he’s forced to leave his post when his infamous machine is churning out menacing food-animal hybrids. Also the voices of Anna Faris, Neil Patrick Harris, Andy Samberg, Kristen Schaal, Terry Crews, and Benjamin Bratt.

Riddick ~ Returning is one of my favorite sci-fi stories! Left for dead on a sun-scorched planet, Riddick (Vin Diesel) is up against an alien race of predators. Activating an emergency beacon alerts two ships: one carrying a new breed of mercenary, the other captained by a

man from Riddick’s past. Also starring Karl Urban, Katee Sackhoff, and Bokeem Woodbine.

Rush ~ A biography of Austrian Formula 1 champion driver Niki Lauda (Daniel Brühl) and the 1976 crash that almost claimed his life. A few short weeks after the accident, he got behind the wheel to challenge his British rival, James Hunt (Chris Hemsworth). Also starring Olivia Wilde, Natalie Dormer, Rebecca Ferdinando, Tom Wlaschiha, and Alexandra Maria Lara.

Salinger ~ Required reading while in school, director Shane Salerno presents a documentary with an unprecedented look inside the private world of J.D. Salinger, the reclusive author of ‘The Catcher in the Rye’. Special appearances by Philip Seymour Hoffman, Edward

Norton, John Cusack, Martin Sheen, Tom Wolfe, and Gore Vidal.
