Back together

Last night Peter stayed in his room - for the most part. He actually did come down a couple of times but ran right back up there. Today he slept until 7:40. YAY. I am a new woman. I am back in love w/ Peter Nicoll. We had our usual snug fest of love and I didn't have feelings of "what the hell are you doing up??".
Went to a closing yesterday and had to bring all 3 children. Yes, I marched into a Title Company with 3 children. Who does this? I couldn't find a sitter so it had to happen. We had already been having a really shitty day and then that just topped it for me. BUT, when we walked in, the people who work there couldn't be nicer. They gave them their own conference room and crayons and papers. How sweet is that. So that really turned my day around.
Now, I have one more closing this year. So I had a pretty good year. But I did something for the sale that closed yesterday that I say time after time, I will never do again - but I did. And that is reduce commission. It's tough b/c we still have to pay PFR the full amount - as if we didn't reduce commission. SO what that boils down to is me receiving about 1.5%. Better than 0% yes, but it's never fun to see that check be so much less than it should. Now, in this case, I absolutely wouldn't have gotten the listing unless I reduced commission. And I wanted the listing. Sometimes I am happy to pass on the listing but this one I wanted. So all in all, I am glad I did it but it stings on pay day.
Today I am bound and determined to be production. I have been fairly negative these last couple of days but today, I am going to take care of business. First I am taking Peter to the Play Place as a reward for doing a good job last night going to bed. Then off to Borders and The Gap. I have to clean the basement. Really clean the basement. Make a plan for my cooking. TCB.

And lastly, thanks for reading my blog. You have no idea how thankful I am that I both have my blog and people read it. I love getting emails from people saying that liked the blog or could connect with the stories. When I was out my computer last week, it was tough. I really count on my blog as a place to GET IT OUT.
