Ok here we go, i will try to make it short and sweet but after a day like mine I tend to ramble and use this as my venting stage.
I guess once again my blog need to change a bit as I will no longer be labeled "Realtor" as this is a trade mark term used by members of a Board of Realtors. WHich I am no longer a member of. I have also have decided ( but no other option) to have my Real estate license go Inactive at this time.
I will still be owkring in the smae field but specializing on only new consturction. I will be working out of the model home soley in our newest aggition in Killeen.
This is going to be a postitive move froe me as I will be closer to Ft Hood and to the kids schools if needed.
I will also have more flexability when I am having my flare -ups as I will only be showing in my own area.
I am looking at this as a postivie move and I look forward to helping people build their homes over the next year. I know that 2011 will be a major turning point for my family.
Dr appt was ok today, more blood drawn to check inflammation and Sed rates again still working up the Lupus stuff and today got a nice Steroid shot in the hip for my bursitis (ouch)
Headed to grab some food and go to small group for some much needed prayer and learning..
As I have been trying hard to drowned myself in my Bible my week seems to go down hill more, guess I am doing something right- Satan scared so he trying harder to suck me back in...

Refreshed
Wow, I can not believe it has been so long since I got on here to write. My hand have been pretty sore and so have my arms. Been working alot lately. So I never bothered to pick up the laptop at all. I was just using my phone to do a few updates here an there.
First i want to say thanks to all my friends out there, I always wonder why would I blog, who wants to read my stuff. Then as I started to feel ill I searched ay and night for information, and I soaked it all up. I felt so much better to know that I was ot Alone. There are others, I am not crazy.
So I thought if I could reach just a few people with my random rantings, and make them feel better, then I have accomplished something.
And guess what, people ARE reading it. That's is so exciting, hope you don't notice all my typos, my brain seems to work faster then my fingers, and the Internet can handle. And now the batteries in the key board are going out on me.
Well I guess I need to wrap up early then, but I wanted to tell you real quick;
Last week was a really rough week, I cried, at everything- even a Folgers commercial, and the news where that track girl crawled over the finish line for her dieing coach, anyway, I had migraine & sinus headache last Wed, slept the entire day away, next day got the kids off, and then went home and slept more, ignored phones call and all. Friday I had to work at BBW- didn't want to leave the house. I got nauseous and upset stomach bad, it was awful, tried to get up and would get dizzy and shaky.
I went anyway, my good friend was working with me and she always makes me laugh and smile.
I could have stayed home, wallowed in my self pity, my despair, but I had to look around, some of my woes are financial like everyone else lately, but I know I have to work to fix it, right?
so I worked all day Sat, Sunday I went to SS Class- felt so good, then worked long shift and a trip to the ER (another story later)
I have been reading Proverbs each day and discussing it (via text) Great idea to have accountability, w/ out the pressure. my point is that I woke up this am, drank my coffee, showered and dressed, actually put on make up and did my hair. Yes, I wore make up today. And I still had spoons left the-spoon-theory
and here I am sitting at work and still going, I did take one of my Rx pills today that helps but that was later in the day. So do you think that because I took the time to learn from God this week that I feel so much better then last week, when I thought everything and everyone hated me? I would have to say that it has everything to do with my attitude today, sure I have a wonderful party tonight for work, but last week I would not have even thought about going. Surrounding myself with people no way.
OK keyboard & mouse are really dying and my hands are cramped, gonna go get pretty for party and relax.
PS Had sweet couple come into today, praying that they are serious about building and their home sells quick.
Thanks for visiting...~Gentle Hugs~ God Bless

Directions
How well do you listen to directions? Do you follow them to the "t" or do just push through trying to get as much done as you can and do it all but only part way?
That seems to be the case alot of times lately around my house. We barely have time to breath much less take out the trash & put a new bag in.
So how do we fix that, how can we get back to the basics? God and family, then everything else. I understand we all work and and get distracted by everything especially kids or coworkers.
Last time I wrote I talked about scheduling and making sure that we performed out best during the day. that focus was more for us with chronic illness or Brain Fog if you will so that we can keep working with out forgetting the task at hand. Or sentence for that matter
So getting back to the daily schedules, do you start you am off with coffee and breakfast, is that when you read your emails or your morning paper? I have tried to incorporate my bible study time then, maybe take 30 minutes before the kids are up running around and screaming they can't find their shoes. Then maybe on your lunch break take another 15 minutes or so and just Praise God, praise him for everything, then ask him for your needs as well as others. I do alot of worship in the car, I can sing as loud as I want with no one to laugh or judge. It makes my drive time go by alot faster and I am in such a better mood once I get to my next destination for I am consumed by the holy spirit.
There is a message out there for each one of us. A path to follow and directions are laid out each day, with guidance and we fail everyday trying to make our own path or doing it my own way.
HELLO, that's not working, wake up and look at everything around you. Is that where you are supposed to be? Just take time to listen and hear the directions that are being spoken to you. Sometimes we just have to keep going straightt forward until he say it time to make that turn.
I can keep going on and on ranting but that doesn't fix it, I have to start doing it.

Working in Pain
Working with (in) pain... we all do it right? Whether we are working at home cleaning or doing the mommy thing driving from here to there, pto meetings and dance class- or just at work doing what we do.
How do we do it each and every day, well for the most part we don't have a choice. you learn to do what you have to. Yes some day you cant get out of bed, don't stress about it, that makes it worse. So what do you do on those days?
I finally get it now, being organized and keeping up with things instead of putting it off til the next day is one way to keep yourself in check. Because with us tomorrow may just be one of those days. I don't want you to over do it on your good days, setting your own pace.
So maybe make up a schedule for the week, this is what I have started doing, each day will have it's own thing this can be for house work or work Monday's will be my marketing days, I will respond to all weekend emails that need follow ups and web leads. Tuesday are touring days, we hit all the open house and see what in the area. After and it s a good day to tour my own listings to check on each one. Wednesday will be my Whatever day- also giving ME a chance to catch up on emails and previous days stuff that may have gone unattended. Thankful Thursday- I will have a business luncheon- can be with a fellow realtor, investor, loan officer, maybe board stuff. Write 5 thank you cards and mail out. Also taking out 1 hour to meet with a friend instead of face booking or texting them. This shows them I am grateful for them.
Fun Friday- what can be better then a laid back Friday- first thing in the am make contact with all sellers, update them on housing info. Check on buyers to see if they need anything before the weekend comes. Maybe they want to look at a few homes late Saturday, get those scheduled now, not early in the am when they are not answering their phones.
This seems pretty easy to go by, until the phone rings and you are out the door to meet with a client.
Or you are so sore in the morning you can barely grab the phone to say I am not coming in.
Knowing that its OK to wait til tomorrow if your body is tell you it need rest. By keeping it all lined up one day to the next you should be fine to rest and not worry. What do you do to make it easier?
So now that I rambled on about my daily work routine, what is yours? Can you get up at 5:30 and exercise right away, or do you drag yourself out of bed by grabbing the dresser- to the wall- to the bathroom counter? Tomorrow I will attempt to talk about morning routines and how can we (I) start one..
