Do I intentionally choose the cold days to deliver my newsletters?

The thermometer never peeked above 16 degrees this week as I was making my deliveries.

And it wasn't the cold, but the ice that presented a hazard.

Last weekend the temps were in the 50s. Lots of rain. Sunday night, as the temps plunged into the teens, a layer of ice was created over Chicagoland.

Tuesday was the real scary day.

Several times I was forced to walk like baby horse taking his first steps...

Twice I fell flat on my back.

Panic really kicks in as one is about to fall on a sidewalk.

Please don't get hurt!

Fortunately, no major injuries.

280 more newsletters delivered.

I am almost there...

I was out again this morning. My partner (my daughter Erin) decided not to join me. She left me for another man (she decided to stay home and play with her cousin Ethan).

I had 100 more newsletters to deliver. This time my target was the subdivision of High Meadow, located in south Naperville.

This is one of my favorite neighborhoods here in Naperville. Great schools (they all are in Naperville). Nice homes. The grammar school located conveniently in the middle of the subdivision.

The homes are priced on the higher end of my target market. Most sales in High Meadow are from the low 400's to the low 500's.

Some people do some rather extravegant things to their homes. Tennis courts, basketball courts, fancy swimming pool/recreation areas...

One of the nice things about delivering my newsletter at this time of the year are all the fancy decorations set up for Halloween. At one home, as I was hanging my newsletter, I nearly jumped out of my skin when a creepy voice started talking to me...

I felt rather foolish when I realized the voice was coming from a rather scary looking witch designed to frighten trick or treaters.

The one real danger came on my second to last home. I was relieved to be almost finished, so I probably had my guard down. As I walked up the walkway, I rounded a bush and found myself face to face with a snarling dog. Not huge. Maybe 50-60 pounds. What it lacked in stature, it made up in ferocity.

Fight or flight! My primal instincts kicked in. With adrenaline pumping, I retreated with the beast chomping at my heals.

"I didn't want to sell your home anyway," I yelled at the dog. I am sure that got him.:)

Needless to say, that home did not get my newsletter.

Poor folks. They didn't get the chance to meet one heck of a good agent.:)
