WHEN LIFE HANDS YOU LEMONS...MAKE LEMONADE! patricia4realestate.com-Portsmouth NH Real Estate- Hampton NH Real Estate

I live the "the Live Free or Die State" of NH. You never know what the weather is going to be like. It can change on dime.

It can be sunny one minute and rainy or snowy the next. The expression we all use is, "if you don't like the weather just wait a minute it's change." Well I had an Open House and it rained all weekend long until this morning and it stopped for a bit and actually got a bit sunny for a short time.

The Open House was scheduled for 1:00 so I had great hope that the rain would hole off but it didn't. It began to put as I got to the driveway of the house and continued all afternoon and unfortunately, no one showed up....NO ONE! Yikes was I upset. I walked around the house for a bit and remembered my father telling me "when all you've got is lemons... make lemonade." Interesting how I remembered that today especially being father's day.

I went to the car and got a book I've been reading and sat in the living room with a cup of tea and quietly read. Every now and then I stopped and thought about the good times spent with my Dad when he was alive. It was an afternoon of mixed emotions and not at all what I expected for the "Open House" I'd plan.

It was now 3:30 and time to go. As I was leaving, the rain let up, the sun peeked through and a car pulled up with a couple who by chance was driving by. They asked to see the house and I obliged happily. As I left them we exchanged email contact numbers and made a time to talk further about homes in my area. Funny how things work out isn't it!
