Air Conditioning Rocks
I have to say that when I bought my house I did not give very much consideration to the fact that it has air conditioning but I am very very relieved that it's there. Phew. Although I know my house is still warmer than most it would be just horrific if it had absolutely no air con at all. So, thank you once again little house.
I keep thinking that I'll have a slow week to just chill and hang out and do very little. Things, strange weird odd little things keep popping up magically and they disrupt my plans for idleness. Not that I can complain because that's just the way it goes.
Not much is going on right now. My little house is moving along slowly but surely. The renovation has put me in the spirit and so I've decided to give my kitchen a minor face lift with some new appliances and counter tops. I'm a bit concerned because the color of the counter tops is somewhat dark and my kitchen is somewhat small but what they hey. It must be better than the tile that's falling off now.
Work is going well. I'm leading the office in volume for the year which surprises me. they tell me there are some people very close to me so by the end of the year I may not be ahead. I still feel that the level I'm producing is okay, but not stellar. There are agents out there that are pulling in 5 times what I am so I sort of feel that it's good but there is still room for growth. Not without some help though. I'll tackle that issue once the house is all done. A few years ago, when I was cutting grass, I would have been thrilled with where things are but I think the nature of the business is such that you have to consider slow years which I'm sure I will have and that one good year does not mean next year will be the same.
On the eating front I'm still battling. I'll make some great progress and then blow it with 2 nights of just terrible food. Oh well. I'm still working out consistently which is great but I still need to try and get up earlier in the morning so that I can jump start quicker. Last night we celebrated RG's B.day with some yummy dinner and it could have maybe just been tad bit on the lighter side but what the hell. We also played one, only ONE, game of Gang of Four that took an astounding 2 + hours. GRRR. If you don't win then how the hell can you have a re-match. GRRR.
This coming week is Mike's last week of work! I can't believe it. He will still work part time in August if they need him but he has no obligation to. Crazy Crazy. Life in the house will get a bit strained with our being there together all the time but I'm sure we will figure it out. Why did I but all this chocolate for the Open House. Sigh.

What type of counters are you installing in your kitchen? Are you putting in stainless steel appliances? I love the look of stainless steel, but I must say, I don't love the maintanence. I'm forever cleaning the damn stuff. Not sure I would do it again... probably b/c they look great, but not definitely. I do, however, love our slab granite. Not because of the way it looks (which I also like), but because it's so easy to clean up, particularly with undermounted sinks. You know way more about this stuff than I do, of course. Can't wait to see the facelift.
I fell off the eating good wagon these past 4-5 days. Oh well. There are worse things in life!
