Sold!

At one point I thought I really wanted to sale real estate.   I still think it's an awesome job and I know a ton about our area, the market, and houses.   However, I'm not willing to put in the long hours and weekends away from my family.  

I saw the real estate crm and it looks like an awesome app for agents and other real estate followers to have!

Maybe 10 years from now when my kids are older and don't want to be around me ... I'll reconsider!

So much hockey...

Life has been super crazy.   I no longer work.   BUT...I feel like I've been busier than ever.   I've been trying to tackle painting the living room and it's turned into a major pain in the ass because I've dealt with two defective cants of paint.

Last weekend we watched the CU hockey team get bumped out of the NCAA tournament.   Such a bummer.   We were so excited to travel and watch them and really thought they had a great chance of winning the championship.

I love a parade!

Just a few more months til Ithaca Parade.   Such a fun time!   As much as I wanted my kids to be involved in parades and band - they have absolutely no interest!   Graem likes the outfits, Emmy is obsessed with what comes next, and Keane just wants to play with the classic color guard rifles!!

It is on my bucket list to go and see the Macy's Day parade.   Of course, after years of watching it and me realizing that I'm in a warm house and those people on television are outside freezing to death - it makes me wonder if maybe it's not all it's cracked up to be!

NYC!

Well, it looks like we will be going in a few weeks to NYC!   And we're not bringing the kids.   Margot has a spine surgery consult there with a good surgeon at NYU.   They are very apprehensive on who they take on as patients and I guess her case peaked their interest.

We are heading out on the bus Sunday morning and planning a nice dinner.   We are also staying in one of the trendy pod hotels.   Should be a nice getaway.

Oh yeah...we will be going to the doctor too!

Slow, slow, slow

Work has been so friggin slow.   I was promoted at work back in October with them thinking they were going to sign this big client.   Anyway....they haven't.    Which means that I'm basically sitting here for the past few months twiddling my thumbs.

I have been getting a few commercial cases that I go out and do immediately - but it's just enough to cover the cost of daycare.

I feel like I'm hounding my bosses for more work and yesterday I even got so desperate that I applied for some part time positions.

Detox!

We have been talking for a while about doing a detox program.   In fact, I've been looking at different detoxes online and trying to figure out what the best one would be for us.   I've looked at http://www.rapiddetoxlasvegas.com and it has some of the good features that I have read about.

One thing is - it has to be easy and we really need to feel cleansed and ready to start with living a better life and treating our bodies better!

Ready for a break...

Last week I was in the hospital for four days with pneumonia.   It was awful.   I found out a few things including that our local hospital sucks.   If anything major happens - I'm out of here and heading to either Sayre or Rochester to a bigger and better hospital!

That took up much of my holiday and we are leaving next week to go to Disney.   I can't wait and hope that I can get some much needed R&R!
