I live in Westfield, Massachusetts and we are having one HECK of a winter. Today was yet another snow day, no school, snowed in at home with my daughters. Days like this give a real estate agent a lot of options, for example:
#1- stay in PJ's and watch old musicals all day
#2- work from home
#3- clean the house
#4- nap
#5- chat with friends
#6- go outside and play
#7- read
I was in an a la carte mood today and took a few different options.
Option #1- I hope this isn't too much information for you, but I love jammie days! I didn't, however, turn on the TV because of
Option #2 - I worked from home, as I often do. I emailed everyone on my buyer list, I updated my email drip campaigns on my website, I spoke with a buyer (Thanks Clint!), I wrote a press release and I blogged.
Option #3 - is a work in progress. I don't like housechores so I take it in little bites. Cleaned the kitchen then emailed, folded laundry then blogged...you get the picture. There is still a pile of laundry the size of the Berkshire Mnts staring at me as I write this, but I will get to it!
Option #4 - don't feel drowsy today, so I get to stay productive..even in my PJs!
Option # 5 - Enter my new favorite addiction: twitter. Today I chatted with friends old and new in business and personal matters. I am making contacts, broadening my referral network and LEARNING a ton!
Option # 6 - Thank goodness, my girls didn't feel like going outside, because I am too snug here on the couch!
Option # 7 - I didn't read my book (although it is terrific: Host by Stephanie Meyers) but I DID read a lot of blogs and motivational materials to keep me focused on staying positive.
My daughters have been cooperating and working beside me all day. I think it is a great way for them to grow to understand how much effort it takes to be a working mom. It also teaches them to be flexible and have a good work ethic. They can see their mom is working, but I can take a break here and there to be with them at lunch or over a book. Speaking of which...gotta run: the youngest wants help with a puzzle!
