Tuesday night at Picconi's....LOL
Was reminded tonight when I got home how grateful that I am for where I am and what I have. Just hit me as I was walking to be sure that I had closed the garage door on my way in....
Wrote an offer today for a condo in Covina...this will be exciting...hope it works out. My client really deserves and needs it to provide a safe place for her and her two kids, so here's hoping that it works out for them as well.
Had a few minutes to run through Bed, Bath & Beyond today and had to contemplate how much to spend for a new ironing board and if I really would be doing my own ironing in the future. Went ahead and sprung for a new board and iron and I look forward to hopefully being able to use them to press my shirts, pants and whatever else I can get my hands on....NOT!!
Ironed my shirts last week and found it actually to make me feel good, so today pressed on while they were totalling the purchase, which ended up being over $100.
Ran into a few fellow Realtors yesterday while lunching at Saffron's in Ontario. It was a very nice lunch, with a friend who was passing through my area, and also got to meet the Supervisor (the new one) at the Daily Bulletin, and meet a few friends who I used to work with @ Coldwell Banker, now Weichert Realtors ~ Foothill Properties...hope that I spelled it right! Rob and Dee, it was GREAT meeting you!! Linda, so nice to see you again after all these years! (going on 8!)..and meet your son, Tony, too.
My friend was headed into LA for a design show that starts tomorrow in West Hollywood at the Pacific Design Center..hope that's right! He was happy to try the restaurant out with me and it was a chance to catchup on things.....meanwhile, feeding each other ideas that help our respective businesses.....So yeah, it was a good lunch!!
I am drying clothes right now, contemplating if I will do anymore open houses these days ~ it doesn't seem to be helping, really.
Talked with my sign company today and got quotes for finally new Open House Signs!! Hope I can figure out a design for them, etc.
Enjoying my favorite little snack tonight ~ Baguette slices (bread) topped with Pepperjack cheese (or Jalapeno as Trader Joe's calls it!) and a slice of red onion on top of it, baked until the cheese has melted and some Roma Tomato slices with a little glass of red wine, which was courtesy of Steve and Erica for my birthday....Chateau Madonna is what the bottle said and it was courtesy of S & E from The Wine Tailor in Rancho Cucamonga....Yum! It is spicy and from Veneto, which is an Italian way to say the Venetian region of Italy. "Thank You" S & E!!!
Got a good jog in today, (and some weightlifting too!!) after going to do a go-see on a property in San Antonio Heights that I may soon be hired to sell...the previous Realtors (there were two of them) had it priced WAY TOO HIGH.....No wonder it hadn't sold. I told them what I thought and hope to hear back with a go ahead tomorrow.
Ran about 2.7 miles in 24 minutes, not too shabby for an old man like me....hehe. Then went to stock up on Trader Joe's groceries....I'm lucky to make it in there twice monthly...so that was fun. Felt good that I was buying healthy things and did manage to sneak a few sweets in as well, although even the cashier missed them when we talked about eating healthy and also eating sweets.....then she quickly saw them and Todd was caught!! It's fine, I'm fine with it.
My fat content in my body according to my scale is approaching the lowest it's been for a while, so happy about that. Although I do have a reason I'm not eating as much. Work is very stressful right now trying to figure out what's really best for my clients, and there's barely a moment for me to breathe in between the phone and appointments...so yah, felt lucky to make it to the gym and grocery shopping today.
Drying clothes that I stuck in the washer today between appointments and obligations that I had and still have a bit of work to do tonight....so will try to get a bit more done and then of course shower...and get some R & R in. (hopefully 8 hours tonight!!!)
Well, hope you had the kind of day that you'd like to have and that your evening is even sweeter. Good Night, my friend(s).
