What better way to start your day.

I moved 5000 miles to live in Florida, to be in the sun, to listen to the waves, to swim in the Gulf ....

Now that I am here I often forget to appreciate the beauty we have. Not today. I met with a friend at 8.30 this morning and we walked on the beach for an hour and a half and then went to breakfast at South Beach. It was a great way to start a Sunday morning and a good reminder why I am here. The water was very calm, the Pelicans and seagulls were out, people were fishing at the beach, it was just beautiful, relaxing and gave me a lot of energy. I just love Florida.

You tell me what this is. I have no clue.

That's what I found when I walked the beach this morning. It is always interesting to see what come onshore after a storm. You see things that you usually never find on our prestine beaches here in the Tampabay area. Does anybody know what the organge thing is?

I AM pulling my hair out. Should I start my day with a Brandy instead of coffee?

When is the last time you received a READABLE offer?

I love new technology and I embrace it and if you know what you are doing, it actually works. You can get a READABLE copy of an offer or contract from A to B in no time with no hassle. If you do not know what you are doing and you cannot get a READABLE copy from A to B then PLEASE go back to the basics and snail mail or hand deliver it. What on earth is so complicated about that? Sorry I am venting, but for the last few months I have hardly seen a good copy of a document.

Somehow the other agent manages to shrink it to death or fax it so many times that it comes in as a huge mess of black lines or they scan it and it is so light that you cannot figure anything out or it has so many initialed changes that you don't know what on earth they finally agreed upon...........

Am I the only one complaining?

Am I taking this too serious?

Is my expectation too high?

Do I need to get new reading glasses?

Should I ask my doctor for a Xanax refill?

Should I start my day with a Brandy instead of coffee?
