Work has been crazy lately. I was supposed to have today off but have too many things going that aren't very concrete at the moment. It is an odd real estate market right now in that sellers aren't willing to sell for a low price and buyers ask for the world and will quickly walk away if they don't get what they want. It has taken quite a bit of effort to keep some of my transactions scotch-taped together.

I suppose it is a good problem to have. Other than that, things are cruising along. Still trying to decide what we're going to do for Halloween and looking forward to our CA visit. About amonth from now, Brooke and I are going to Connecticut for an overnight stay. The comedian Howie Mandel who is hilarious will be out at a casino performing so we're going to go check him out.

Glad that Jon will be heading home. I hope he gets here in time for his b-day!!!!
