Good morning!

I'm singing the Pointer Sisters "I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it! I'm about to lose control and I think I like it!" :heh Don't know if I posted this house pic or not, but this is the big, neat house I held open during the Tour of Homes. Well, I had the opportunity to show it last Saturday and the buyer made an offer that's been accepted and we are on our way to the closing company to start the titlework! That's why I'm singing!

Good morning! :wave

It is a beautiful sunny (but not too hot) day here.

I have the day off from work, and for once I have no appointments or other commitments, so I may actually have a shot at getting caught up on the housework for a change and still get some free time to read.

My niece who was flower girl at Sharon and my wedding many years ago just turned 25 yesterday. Where did the time go? I feel so old. :oldman Funny part is, she was moaning about how depressing it is to be half way to 50. :lol

I've been at my new job for almost 8 months at this point. While it is most definitely a major improvement over the old job, I just don't see myself staying there much longer. I think that after 33 years working in retail / customer service type positions, I've reached the point that I just really want to try my hand at something else (preferably something that involves little or no direct interaction with the public), but I have no idea what. Most of the things that look interesting to me would require additional education which I have neither the money nor the time for at this point in my life.

I just saw on the local news that a very popular Mexican restaurant here in town is closed after being raided by ICE agents yesterday. 11 arrests were made for illegal resident status.

We have a very large and rapidly growing illegal population here in recent years, but it is extremely unusual to see the authorities do anything about it. Makes me wonder if they were tipped off about something else going on there that isn't being reported yet.

Beautiful house Barb. Are they going to take it??? Love the Pointer Sister song " , I am so excited etc.
Time passes far too fast that is for sure. But it also brings us closer to the time of the rapture. :nod

We finished up our time at work early so we surprised our brother late afternoon. We headed to our favorite watering spot and late lunch and had some good beer and conversation. I do not drink a lot anymore.......far too old........but had some new Bud Wiser lite Orange and it is so good. :tea

It sure is a colder day. It is only in the upper 40's here in northern Iowa with rain for most of the weekend.

Barb how is your hubby doing today???

Thankful for a wonderful evening with friends and family. Love you all have a good weekend.

Yes, one of our fellow realtor has the seller side & I have the buyer side. We have a fully accepted contract. :thumb I think my buyer is pretty excited. It's his 1st home (he's a young doctor @ the county hospital & he's originally from Ghana).

Sweetie is doing ok - doesn't want this waiting to go on too long. Me neither.

We went to a listing appt @ 6. I really hope the people will list with us.

I'm so sleepy ... we've decided to have ice cream sundaes & call it a night. :wave

I was watching Anthony Bourdain a few years back. He said something to the effect that if all of the illegals working in the restaurant industry were deported most New York City restaurants would be closed!

We have something of a problem with that in SW Okla too. :sigh It is worse in the landscaping arena here. :ohno

Heh, let me tell you how inexpensive homes in SW Okla are, compared to in other locales. That house I posted, was listed for $279,900. That's way more than I'd like to pay for a house, but I know along the east coast there are little old rundown houses priced way over $100,000. :shrug SW Okla doesn't always make me happy, but I am glad the cost of living is lower.

Hi, Mel, Jeanette, Scott, and Carmen! Hope you're having a good weekend.

It's warm & windy today ... I worked outside awhile this afternoon.

And now, we've got The Blob, with Steve McQueen on tv. :pound

later: Svengoolie is the host, and he's sung a song to the tune of The Andy Griffith show's theme. The lyrics he sung compared The Blob's cast to all the characters in The Andy Griffith Show. Mm, boy, is it similar! :freaked ... :hysterical
