Whirlwind day!

It all started at the normal 6 am alarm, up and stager to the alarm clock, turn it off, turn water on hot in the shower, pat the doggies head, check cell phone for messages that came in during the night.

Shower over, down to the desk, do research for the day, do some little helping things for friends who needed to know things about values, write a bit on appraisal and then leave for Pittsburg.  Make bank deposit on the way.  Arrive on time, OK house, nice new sod, asian owners with little english.

Then to Brentwood and use Supra Key, this little device that looks like a cell phone, you just turn it on, put in a code and point at a lockbox hanging on the front door, the box with the key inside gets the message and opens.  Then you have access.  Measured a two story home, shot the comps and then headed home.

Picked up Marilyn, address and other needed items and we hit the road for Scots Valley where a nice little bed with a slide and ladder waiting to be picked up.  Kallie needs a new bed.  The one thing I did not pickup when I left was my iphone.  And with that mistake I was out of touch with all my clients and friends, family for the whole afternoon.

We found the address where the bed was without any problem.  The owner had waited to take the bed apart until I could see how it went together.  So we took the next 45 minutes disassembling the bed.  It is cute and well made.  Finally we had it all loaded up in the car and headed home.

We stopped by Jason's and ended up having dinner with the family.  Jo is in the air flying home from teachers meetings in Nashville.  She arrived this evening at around 10 and will be very welcome home by her whole family.  Jason spent his second day at school in SF today and is quickly learning the ropes, the needs, the challenges of what he is in for.  Their family is going through so much right now, so many changes.

I'm sure Kallie is going to love her new bed when we can get it rebuilt.  It is very clever and leave it to Nikki and Steve to find it for a very low price through the internet instead of paying the full price for it new.  Good for them!

So now I'm really tired and worn out but very thankful for life, for a safe trip, for lots of work to do and for friends and family.

Love


Tim

please pray for those with special needs this evening, God knows!
