I Didn’t Enjoy My Monday… Or Did I?

Today, was one of those days.

I like my job. I really do. I like my life. I like how things are moving. I don’t like it when my phone rings non stop all day. Lets use my phone log to talk about my day:

So yeah… my phone did not stop ringing… Over 2 hours (probably pushing 3 or 4 of talk time, with over 20 phone calls). The evening was much better though… In fact, if you caught on to the gist of what some of the phone calls were about… You might have guess what happened…

Amber and I put in an offer on a home!

It’s a townhome in Woodbury, very close to MSA, Church, City Center, etc. I would give you more details, but I have decided not to get my hopes up until the offer is accepted. More on it to come in the coming days.
