Momisms We Know All Too Well!

All those who were fortunate
enough to grow up with a loving Mom
and/or Dad can probably appreciate all
the little sayings you heard during
those years that were most likely
aimed at telling you “No” or “Grow
up!” No matter what you did or what
you asked for, there would be some
comeback from Mom or Dad which
left you certain that when you grew up
and had your own kids, you wouldn’t
be like they were! Back in the day
though, the dads were usually the
breadwinners and were at work most
of the time so a majority of the expressions we were used to hearing probably came from Mom, who got them
from her Mom, who got them from her
Mom, and so on. Even though Mom
and Dad may have joined forces when
it came to discipline or decisions, any
comments Dad had to offer probably
came from his Mom too!
There could be variations as to
how the admonishments or words of
wisdom were forthcoming, but I’m
sure we will all recognize the sentiments. I recall that a great number of
the “Mom-isms” were centered around
mealtime, and when we were younger,
and struggling to eat our vegetables or
perhaps some other item served at dinner that we didn’t especially care for,
there was always “You are not leaving
the table until you finish your vegetables” or “No dessert until you have
cleaned your plate.” Do you remember, “Eat your food since you are fortunate to have it - just think of those
poor starving children in (
)” - fill
in the blank with the country you were
told about! Or maybe it was the opposite, “Don’t eat that now, you will
spoil your dinner!” (it is obvious we
are not talking about a teenager here!)
Perhaps you even got the tear-jerker
comment, “I spend all my time in the
kitchen, slaving over a hot stove to
make nutritious meals for you, and
this is the thanks I get?”
And remember when the hottest
new toy came out and you wanted one
so badly, but when you asked if you
could get one Mom said “Do you think
we are made of money?” or “Money
doesn’t grow on trees, you know!”
And then when you whined and asked
why you couldn’t have whatever it
was, you heard, “Because I said so,
that’s why!” or “Oh, spare me the
pathetic look!” or “People in Hell
want ice water too!” And, I’d also bet
many of you heard things like, “Close
that door! Were you brought up in a
barn?” or if you were responsible for
breaking something in the house, then
it was, “See, this is why we can never
have anything nice in this house!”
Did you ever try a little pushback when you were scolded, or told
to do something you did not want to
do? The Momisms then usually
included, “Just you wait until your
Father gets home!” or “I brought you
into this world, and I can just as easily take you out again!” Or how about
“Watch your language!” or “If I talked
to my mother the way you talk to me,
I would be on another planet” or perhaps “Are you tired of living?”
Remember the difficulty when
everyone was going somewhere and
you had to get permission to go too?
You probably heard that “If all your
friends jumped into the river would
you have to follow them in?” or “If his
or her (friend’s name) Mom allows
them to (do whatever) then if you
must do that too, you can move to that
house, but as long as you are living
under my roof, you will follow my
rules!” And remember when Mom
scolded you for your personal habits
as in “There is enough dirt behind
your ears to start a potato farm,” or
“Your room looks like a hurricane
went through.” or “You are not leaving this house until your room is
clean, and I mean clothes put in the
closet and your bed made!” or “Do
you think you are living in a hotel?”
And how about “Do it now –I’m not
going to ask you again!” (but I bet she
did!) Another one I remember is
“Stop acting like your father!”
Sometimes when you were
being a real pain or pestering your
folks, you might have heard, “Running
away? I’ll help you pack!” or “Be
quiet, children should be seen, not
heard!” or “You don’t ever listen!” or
“Talking to you is like talking to a
brick wall!” And how about “Stop crying or I’ll give you something to cry
about!” One I particularly appreciated
was, “When you have children of your
own, I hope they are just as big a pain
as you are!” or “If you choose to act
like a child, I will treat you like a
child!” Did you ever head out for
school but you forgot a book, your
homework or your lunch and had to
come back for it? I’d bet you heard
“You’d forget your own head if it wasn’t attached!” or “God gave you a
brain, why don’t you use it?” There
was also the advice, “Make sure you
have on clean underpants in case you
are in an accident!”
But when you think back I am
sure you will find it was not always
just about all the things for which you
were being corrected, but also about
the words of encouragement you
received. When things did not turn out
the way you expected she may have
said, “What will be, will be” or “There
will be a next time!” I’m sure at some
time or another your Mom/Dad may
have said, “You will always be my
baby!” or “I will always love you!”
Or, perhaps you heard, “No matter
what you are able to accomplish, I will
always be proud of you!” I also think
now that my mother was right about
most everything! Then I think, “Oh
No, I’ve turned into my Mother!”
Well, she said “One day you’ll thank
me!” And, yes, that time has come,
and I do!

President, Women’s Council of REALTORS
New Leadership Coming Soon…
Now that I have your attention, please read the rest of the
article. Tiffany Wright our
President-Elect is looking for a
supportive team of officers for
2017. Executive Team
Applications are due by July 15,
2016 to Susie Sheffield at
[email protected] for all
positions other than President.
REALTORS are eligible for every
role and National Affiliates are eligible for Treasurer and Secretary.
Why choose leadership
opportunities in WCR? The
answer to that question is as
unique as you are. Personally I
have achieved enhancement of my
leadership skills, stronger relationship opportunities worldwide, and
synergized community service
opportunities. I do believe WCR
provides one of the most supportive and encouraging environments
for achieving leadership goals.
Past executive team members have
served within WCR at State and
National levels not to mention key
leadership positions at SABOR,
TAR and NAR and that is just
some of the places within our
industry. Contact any officer to
assist with your application!
What are we looking for in a
leader? Commitment,
Involvement and Ability to Travel
around Texas and to Orlando,
Florida and Washington D.C.
• Each team member will
promote the value of Women’s
Council of REALTORS® membership throughout the real estate
community and be familiar with
its Mission and Vision
• We are all part of the same
team and each member should feel
comfortable asking the President,
other officers and board members
as well as retiring officers for help
– we all commit to helping each
other to achieve success in his or
her position.
• Each officer should be
familiar with their job description
and the corresponding section of
the Leadership Policy and
Procedure Manual (LPPM)
• We will be on time for all
meetings and start on time
because we value each other ’s
professional and person commitments
• We will be prepared for all
meetings by reviewing previously
circulated agenda and supporting
materials
• Attendance at national and
state meetings for those eligible is
beneficial to our chapter because
of the leadership and educational
skills you will acquire through
attendance – our members fund
our travel and it is our obligation
to return the benefits to them
• Our trips are business
functions and team building
opportunities and all officers
should make it a priority to participate not only in meetings but also
be a part of the local team’s social
events and planning sessions,
including the final “wrap-up” session
Don’t miss our next Free

#AskTheJaphets
By Paige Japhet, Japhet Builders
Is it really worth it to spend
money on high-end appliances?
Take a look at the graph below
which gives you a general breakdown
of where energy is being spent inside
your home.
Courtesy of CPS Energy
Cooling and heating is the #1
energy expenditure in homes. This
summer, air conditioners across San
Antonio will be working overtime
thanks to the intense heat. Since that
translates into high energy bills, let’s
see where you can possibly save
some money when considering new
appliances:
Air Conditioning
The higher the SEER (seasonal
energy efficiency ratio) for your unit,
the more energy efficient it is.
Minimal SEER on the market is 13.
According to CPS Energy, a 13 SEER
five ton unit costs 58 cents per hour
to operate whereas a 15 SEER unit
will use 25% less energy, likely saving you money in the long run.
Appliances
When it comes to the most
energy-efficient appliances, the
good news is they aren’t always the
most expensive (according to an
article from bankrate.com, “Should
you buy energy-efficient appliances
sooner or later). Pay close attention
to the bright yellow EnergyGuide
label on appliances. It provides
information on the estimated annual
operating cost and compares it to
similar appliance models. Always
keep in m ind that an appliance
which features extra capacity can
also mean it expends extra energy.
Energy efficient appliances
have saved our clients significant
money over the years. Appliances
continue to improve over the years
and nowadays energy efficiency
doesn’t always have to break the
bank. If you do find yourself suffering from appliance sticker shock,
remember there are often rebates
and recycling programs offered by
local utility companies, as well as
government tax incentives which
can help lower the initial cost of
new energy-efficient appliances.

NARPM
By Joyce Zimdahl
NARPM Communications Chair
SAMAC Takes 2016 at Full Speed
The San Antonio Metro Area
Chapter (SAMAC) of the National
Association of Property
Managers®(NARPM®) continues
to drive through 2016 at high
speed! There are no pit stops as
members are more focused than
ever to earn their NARPM® designations before they strive for
the summit at the annual
NARPM® convention in Maui this
October. Road blocks can’t stop
those who see only the green
lights ahead!
MHN Properties hosted the
second quarterly office social on
April 20th with a theme of
“Racing Towards Your
Designation.” Guests enjoyed a
catered barbeque meal and the
opportunity to network with
other small and large business
Property Managers. The event
was designed for members to get
more information about obtaining
NARPM® designations and to
share best practices. A special
thank you goes to Mr. ReKey,
Onsight PROS and Acutraq for
providing sponsorship of the
event.
Next Generation
Professionals (NGP) hosted their
social at the COPA Wine Bar on
May 17th. Attendees stopped by
pit row for a fun night of networking and fueled up on hors
d’oeuvres and COPA’s famous
white sangria. A good time was
had by all!
SAMAC was honored to host
Darryl Lyons, CFP®, AIF®, CEO
& Investment Planner of PAX
Financial, at our member meeting
on May 18th at the Norris
Conference Center. Darryl shared
ideas and principals he had executed to help PAX Financial
become one of the fastest growing
young businesses in San Antonio.
He is the author of the book,
“Small Business, Big Pressure – A
Faith-Based Approach to Guide
the Ambitious Entrepreneur.”
Not only does his book and presentation benefit the selfemployed, but they provide great
tips for business owners and
those who aspire to be. For more
information on his strategic business principles and how to come
out ahead in the race, visit
www.smallbusinessbigpressure.co
m.
Join us at the next circuit
where members give back to the
community during SAMAC’s
community service event on June
8th. We will be geared up to
assemble snack paks from 6:30p7:30p at the SP4K SA Warehouse
at Daily Ministries (6351 Rittiman
Road, 78218). Snack Pak 4 Kids
was started in Amarillo by Dyron
and Kelly Howell who discovered
that many school-aged children
relied on the local school district
for their meals. The kids were eating breakfast and lunch at school,
but spent many nights and weekends hungry. Determined to
address the need, the Howells
assembled ten bags of food (with
enough food to get through the
weekend) and passed them out on
Friday afternoon. The program
grew quickly and teachers began
to see academic improvement,
better concentration and higher
attendance rates. The SP4K program has grown to serve over
6,500 students in school districts
across Texas. For more information about the program, visit
snackpak4kids.org or join us on
June 8th! To RSVP, contact Jessica
Birdy at [email protected].
Liberty Management, Inc.,
CRMC® will host the next office
social on Saturday, June 18th from
4:00pm to 6:00pm at 7217 Bandera
Road, 78238. There will be food,
games and prizes, so don’t miss
the opportunity to join the fun!
The drive continues in July
as the NGPs have another social
scheduled for July 19th (location
TBD). The next chapter meeting
will be July 20th at 10:00am at the
Norris Conference Center. The
educational portion will include
guest speaker Marc Cunningham,
RMPC®.
SAMAC accepts new memberships from Property Managers,
office support and vendors all
year long so don’t worry that
you’ve missed out. It’s never too
late! Join us for our July 19th
chapter meeting and your first
meal is on us! To RSVP, contact
membership chairman David
Birdy at [email protected].
If you have any questions
about NARPM, SAMAC or want
to see a list of events, visit
www.sanantonio.narpm.org or
contact 2016 Chapter President,
Gregg Birdy, RMP® at

Members of the LGBT Community
(Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender)
want a brave and safe place to talk about
their dreams of home ownership. They
want to be honored, valued, and taken seriously discussing the complexities of buying a home, being able to discuss parenting
issues and family dynamics without fear of
judgment or sexist comments. These are
some of the main reasons both real estate
agents and clients seek out Irene GalindoCantu, Loan Officer, NMLS#1317686 at
Supreme Lending - Tylman Branch. Irene Galindo-Cantu: “I am a proud
member of the San Antonio LGBT community, and have been active in promoting
home ownership for over 11 years. My
wife and I have been married for 18 years
and are aware of the challenges that community members have encountered over
the years within the real estate and lending
communities. Just because gay marriage is
now legal, doesn’t mean there are still not
sensitive issues to deal with. Some clients
fear disclosing their relationship, directly
or indirectly, and discretion is paramount.”
Months into the business, I found
myself at a networking event with the
greater chamber filled with new friends.
When the topic came up that I was a
REALTOR® a young woman standing in
my circle whispered, “Can we talk more
about your business?” This new friend and
client didn’t talk to me at the event publicly
because she was afraid to say that she and
her wife were looking for a home together
with their children, for fear of being judged
by others around her. This scenario has
happened several times in different circles
for the same reason. LGBT people are
attacked in media, made out to be dangerous and also portrayed as unfit or “incomplete” parents. And in reality, San Antonio
has one of the largest populations of LGBT
families in the country. I trust and can
count on Irene Galindo Cantu, Tony
Tylman, Branch Manager and their team to
take excellent care of my clients.

Professionally, in my 13 year career
as an agent and personally in my relationship of 34 years to my partner, now married - I have experienced these chal-

lenges. The good news is we are seeing
progress and I am grateful to have
resources like the Tylman Team that
actively support and provide a welcoming
environment for my LGBT clients.
-Barbara del Amo, REALTOR®,
Keller Williams Legacy
Our relationship with Supreme
Lending began 3 years ago through the San
Antonio LGBT Chamber of Commerce.
One of the many reasons we continue to
refer clients to the Tylman Group is
because we know they will receive equal
treatment. We value the partnership that
we have developed with them over the
years, and appreciate their ongoing commitment to our team and the LGBT community. –Chad Nall & Brian Lopez-Rosa,
Owners, Suburban Spaces Real Estate
Group
My experience is that middle aged
to older clients may still be tentative about
putting their information out there, but
younger LGBT individuals and couples
expect the people and businesses they deal
with to be OK with their identity. If not,
they will move on. Understanding and
respecting LGBT buyers and sellers has
always been the key to successfully working with them – Irene and the Tylman
Branch “get this”.
- Randy Rice, REALTOR®, Keller
Williams Legacy
Irene Galindo Cantu: “I’ve built my
business on helping LGBT clients and providing education and advice in a confidential environment. It is incredibly rewarding
to see the smiles, knowing I’ve helped
21
families get into their new homes. I am a
board member of the San Antonio LGBT
Chamber of Commerce and communicate
with many ally business members that are
on the right side of history. I am proud to
work for Supreme Lending, a company
that honors diversity, and also proud that
our Branch has joined the SA LGBT
Chamber of Commerce.” Supreme Lending –Tylman Branch

Charity Golf Tournament Helps
Vets Achieve the American Dream
Group Helps to Educate Vets of Homeownership Benefits
In an effort to help veterans achieve
the American Dream, the local chapter of
the Veterans Association of Real Estate
Professionals, a 501(c3) nonprofit, is holding the Stars and Stripes Charity Golf
Tournament on June 24 at Fort Sam
Houston Golf Club, 1050 Harry Wurzbach
Road.
The money raised from this tournament will help send a veteran delegation to
the 2016 Policy Conference in
Washington, D.C. and lobby congress to
include financial-literacy education under
the Post 9/11 GI Bill; include a Veterans
Provision in the Community Reinvestment
ACT and include the VA loan into HUD’s
“Informed Consumer Choice Disclosure
Notice”. The Policy Conference gives
VAREP members the opportunity to be the
voice for veteran homeownership during
pre-set Capitol Hill visit appointments.
Many veterans are unaware they
qualify for affordable VA loans compared
to costlier conventional loans. The 2010
VA National Veterans Survey revealed the
following reasons for veteran homeown-
ers’ not using the VA home loan benefit:
• 33.6% indicated they did not
know about the program.
• 62.8% said their lender never discussed the VA loan option with them.
• 8.1% said their lender and/or realtor discouraged the use of the VA loan.
VAREP welcomes any and all businesses and organizations to participate or
sponsor a veteran/military member starting
at $100. The format for the tournament is a
four-player scramble. There will be a holein-one contest for a $10,000 cash prize,
longest drive and closest to the pin contests.
Following the tournament, there
will be an awards and banquet ceremony at
1:30 pm, with recognition of all veterans at
the event. UTSA Army ROTC will kick off
the event by posting the colors, Ashley
Montemayor will sing the “National
Anthem” and the shotgun start time is at 8
am.
