Some Days Are Higher Energy And Ah, More Focused Than Others

Focus on this — Dallas is now thought of as the best real estate investment market in the country. Opinions vary, but I’d surely put it into the top three without hesitation. All the factors required to put a smile on investors are in place. This hasn’t happened since I didn’t have kids. Wait a second, it’s never happened in my entire career — which began in October of ‘69.

We called this last year. It’s a win however you wanna look at it. Get in on some of it yourself. It’s not difficult — just email me. Before long we’ll be laughin’ and scratchiin’ and pretty soon we’ll be talkin’ about investing in real estate too.

So how’s your day been? Ever wake up without a care in the world? Today wasn’t one of those days.

First of all, The Boss is outa town for a week and a half being Designer Girl in Chicago and New York. When I’m in her world, I’m about as close to being a complete nobody as you can imagine. “Oh, you’ve never met my husband, have you? Honey, this is Michelle.” This is when I first realized my real world ranking. “Oh hi Mr. Designer Girl, how ya doin’ today?” “Oh, just fine thanks. Gotta love those new earrings, eh?” Then I’m off to the nearest flat screen sporting the ESPN logo.

Now you know why she goes on these trips sans Mr. Designer Girl.

Anywho, woke up this morning with about half a gallon of ‘I give a #$%#@’ for no reason I can think of. Grab a huge cup of coffee, then remember Josh and I are supposed to work out this morning ‘cuz it’s Mom’s 77th birthday. We’re takin’ her to lunch at our favorite Mexican place. Still, gotta workout in the morning, and with an amazingly ah, inferior attitude.

We’ve all had these days, right? Anyway, Mom’s birthday lunch was cool. I was feeling so superior as we sat down for lunch ‘cuz I’d worked out hard on a ‘bad’ day. That’s when Mom let us know she’d gotten her workout in before lunch. 77 years old and still goin’ to the gym. Talk about a pin in your self congratulating balloon.

Called my lender while walking into the restaurant. He’s more distracted than a six year old at the zoo. He excused himself, saying he was having a strong ADD day. I told him, “I thought I’d seen you at the meetings.”

Grandma always said talking care of business on the days you wanted to play hooky was called being an ‘adult’. Blech.
