Ok, so now I’ve spent a few days working on the things I’m re-starting. My business for one and my “family” as another and my hair as a 3rd. I’m excited as the next 2 weeks are going to be very exciting.
I’ve been working quite a bit at my real estate business this week. I’ve written 3 offers on 3 different houses for one client. The first was a bust – the sellers are overpriced, but somehow they haven’t seen reality yet. Really, they’re just in denial. The second was working with us, but then another house that my client liked, but went under contract, came back on the market so we’re still trying to get it snatched up. We should have things sewn up tomorrow.
Tomorrow, I’m meeting with someone I used to work with prior to moving to RE/MAX. She is a MegaAgent big and bad. She has entirely too much work and needs help. Well, I need money so we’ll see what happens. While I don’t really want to work for someone else, I can’t deny the fact that I haven’t been able to get my name out enough to get more of a market share. Well, in addition to the above, I’ve been working at some of my leads. I have many, many, leads that I haven’t really followed up on. Why? Let’s see…I’ll say because I’m lazy because while that’s not an excuse, it’s a reason. I can’t really say why I haven’t other than to say I haven’t been able to face the possible rejection I might get from these people. I mean really, it’s not like anyone can “hurt” me. However, I haven’t been able to face a lot of stuff lately. I’ve been feeling like I have failed at a lot of things so I’ve been protecting myself from those things that could possibly hurt me. The reality for me at this point is, I’m over it. I’m tough. I’ll make it through.
Now, a new start with my “family.” Well, I haven’t yet found my guy. In 2 weeks, I’ll be 37. Yeah… I have spent the last year trying to get pregnant, but that hasn’t worked. Ugh!!! Now, I don’t have the money to continue to the fertility treatments so I’m doing what I can to take my mind off of it until I can. So, I’m going to adopt a St. Bernard and possibly foster others. I’m a big dog lover and love the fact that I’m helping a doggie or doggies have a warm, safe, loving home. I have a Keeshond right now and can’t wait to add another dog to my family. Granted, she’ll be big, but she’ll be loved.
I’m starting over on my hair on Wednesday. I’m going red again! I can’t wait! I had red hair for years, but got bored so I went back to my natural hair color. Now, I’m bored with that and I’m going back to red.
I am embracing starting things anew. It’s actually a bit fun!!! May we all start or do one new thing this week. We’ll have a great time together!!
