Good evening
I'm just back from catching a movie, the Ghost Protocol, a Mission Impossible movie and enjoyed senior rates. One has to find advantages of growing old where they can be found. The popcorn was great and the movie was non stop exciting. The major scene was filmed in that newly completed building in Dubai, I think the tallest in the world. Now that was exciting, his climbing up the glass wall 11 floors to reach the room where the computers were housed. Great escape for a couple hours.
This morning we walked and then I was honored to pick up the little angels, thats Kallie and Keanna, and we drove to Sabbath School where the class theme is the creation week. The room was filled with boys and girls today, it was great. Then Keanna made Kallie a hot chocolate in the lobby and we were off, had lunch at Olive Garden and then I returned them into the loving care of their parents.
This afternoon I built a fire as we are having high winds and they tend to creep in around the dog door and chill the whole house. Late this afternoon I decided that I might just go to the movies tonight. I've not been for a very long time and there is something about being with the huge screen, the comfortable seats and the solid sound, its quite an experience.
Tomorrow is a work day, get the office organized and perhaps shift to the new computer as the major work area, I just hate to, I dislike the new email program, I dislike the lack of some of the older programs that won't work with Windows 7 and I dislike the fact that this computer has an AMD processor, I've never had one and I don't like it much. I thought that was clear that i did not like AMD so now I'm sort of stuck with something I'm not very wild about. And I've invested a lot of money in it.
This afternoon I spent some time with Mr. McDougal's web site and went over what it would mean to really commit to his life style. Wow it is a huge change and I'm mulling it over in my mind. I know it works, that it would help solve all of my problems but I'm unsure if I can handle the cooking involved and if I can live without cottage cheese, hard cheese, oil, butter, margarine etc.
I already like veges, fruits, whole grains, brown rice so I'm part of the way there.
Right now its bedtime.
Love to all

This one went fast.......
Dear Family and Friends,
I actually argued with Lois this afternoon, this could not be Friday already, well I should have known, the woman was right again!
This morning saw me in Alamo at 10. Interesting gay couple, great guys, one from Hawaii and they were collectors of everything, oh my, its not just women that collect things! The place was very interesting and had a large site, views, a pool, dozens of different kinds of plants, trees, shrubs, vegetables etc. While it could be a wonderful place it was not quite there at the present time. So while listening to the final chapters of Reversal I drove all over the little roads finding 8 comparables.
After leaving Alamo the next destination was Oakland. On the way various urges led me to a very nice little Italian place where I had spinach tortellini's. Their bread is great, even the diet coke was good, perhaps I was hungry!
Upon leaving the GPS guided me back to the freeway and finally to my destination off 98th. Now this is Oakland one lives a little closer to his maker when in Oakland. Today it went fine and since I was reviewing an appraisal done in 2007 I did not leave the car, and speaking of the car, this rental car, a Ford Fusion is really nice. Today I confirmed that it does indeed have a 6 speed transmission and it really is deceptive, it is going 75 way before you notice and so smooth. Great fun to enjoy a new car, sort of like a vacation, remember change is a vacation.
After the Oakland job was done I turned to Concord where I had to do a follow up inspection of a home that someone was daring to sell without the new state mandated CO detector, who dreams up these things? Well on the way the insurance adjuster for the motorhome called to say he could be at my house by 4, that worked for me. Once I arrived at the home to reinspect I found NO detectors, no thermostat, nothing had been done that was supposed to be completed! So that was a wasted trip, will they pay me the $75, who knows?
From Concord I came home the back road, the one the GPS hates. It keeps saying no no no but after awhile it gives up and plots the new course. It has no way of learning from its mistakes so its always the same. I arrived home 3 minutes early and waited for the inspector. He was down at the end of the street viewing the poor Saab that lost its bumper when my renter sideswiped it. Then he came to see the motorhome. He was a super nice guy and ask if I knew where to get a motorhome fixed. I told him I didn't know but had heard that Manteca had an RV place that could do it. So he took tons of photos and is going to contact some RV repair places he can look up and we'll go from there.
Well for now I'm worn out. Glad to have work, love having family, treasure my friends and am thankful for the good Lord's blessings, forgiveness and eternal optimism.

Kiddos to the rescue
until they arrived it was just another day! Then the kiddos are here and the house is noisy, lights blaze, boxes and toys are everywhere, now there is some life in here. pasta is boiling on the stove, kids TV programs blare, this is good!
looks like tomorrow the kids will get together to exchange Christmas gifts, Nikki has taken the day off to spend with her girls and they will drive down to spend some time with the cousins. It will be good.
this morning I was up early, worked a bit and then headed to Pittsburg, a trip of about 40 minutes not counting traffic. I had an 8:45 appointment with Mike's Auto body and once arriving I discovered that Geico had an office there in the building and so did Enterprise Car Rental. So in 10 minutes I was driving in a Ford Fusion. What a nice car, comfortable, solid on the road and I counted at least 5 shifts, so it has at least a 5 speed transmission.
Once I was on the road I drove to Kaiser where I had blood work done, mostly to discover the A1C so we can make intelligent decisions about adding insulin to my daily schedule. Althought it took a few minutes in typical Kaiser fashion the blood draw went perfectly. Then I was back on the road to see a huge house in Brentwood, over 3,400sf, this one was really attractive and in perfect condition. After shooting the comps a quick stop at Burger King provided a garden burger lunch with salad.
This afternoon I've been working, ordering checks for the business, ordering handles for the frig in the motorhome and taking care of business.
Yes I'm still on the old computer, its a big leap to switch over to the new one and I'm not looking forward to it at all. But sooner or later I'll have to make the move.
Our weather is like summer right now, cold nights but warm days, too warm for this time of year, we need rain, snow, wind, WINTER! This evening I built a fire and just after sitting down the phone rang. It was Jerrry, my brother. He was excited because Sibyl, our sister had just called from Ohio and was able to chat with him. Shortly thereafter my ear buzzed and on the cell it was my sister calling me. We have been very concerned in that we knew she had a heart attack and was battling for her life and then we did not hear for weeks. All my phone calls went unanswered. Well she is in a rehab center, is getting stronger, has dropped 60 pounds and sounded good on the phone. It was enjoyable to be able to speak to both brother and sister within a few minutes.
Well for now I'm going to sign off. I have a report to finish but I think it will happen in the morning, I'm going to bed. Tired, sleepy and ready to crash.
Sending love and heartfelt thanks for your prayers for those people with special needs.

Settling into a work ethic
Dear Family and Friends,
We walked this morning in the bitter (37 degree) cold and then I raced to 10 am appointment. The house was huge, 3400sf but the sun was out, no one was there and I could take my time and get it right. Upon leaving I shot the comps and then drove to Diggers for breakfast, their hot cereal is great, the waitresses are really nice (cute) and the decaf was perfect.
Once I got home I set about getting the personal things going, at this moment I have a motorhome with a slightly damaged side, a civic with a door caved in and a beetle with a battery that won't hold a charge. I decided it was time to deal with this so first the Civic, after a series of phone calls and a call from Nikki who still owns the car I have a 8:45 appointment with Mikes auto body in Pittsburg. A rental car is supposed to be waiting for me there and that should get that repair going, then the motorhome came next. The claims adjuster is to call in the next two days to come see the damage and get the repair process going.
I've got the beetle on the battery charge once again and I'll take it from there.
This afternoon I drove the motorhome down to the Safeway to show it to some people who are being forced from their home, they are renters and termites have been discovered. So the house has to be tented and they are displaced for 3 days. I feel for them. Well they were going to rent my motorhome and park it in the street during those days. Once look at the bathroom and they walked out, said it was too small for the guy. I was not heart broken in that I had to deliver it, go pick it up and so perhaps this is better. They are very challenging people and I'm sort of glad I don't have to cope with their demands. Of course I could have used the money!
Work is coming in which is nice and no I've not switched back to my new computer yet. The old one feels so comfortable. Soon, very soon.
This evening Nikki let me know Kallie was once again taking swim lessons so I went in to see her. She was not happy that her teacher was a boy, she had hoped for a girl teacher but she is so cute in her goggles and swim hat. What a blessing the kiddos are.
So I'm sending love to all,
Tim

Its Winter all right
As I've been writing reports today my feet have been freezing. I'm still at the old computer afraid to make the big leaf and move to the new one in spite of the fact that its now supposed to be wonderful!! I didn't build a fire today even though Ray tells me today was finally a burn day and last night was not, well my fire last night was wonderful and if the enforcer had come by I would have invited him in for a cup of mocha and to sit by the fire!
Today I've been writing up reports. The first was a relocation one for a nice family leaving Brentwood for the east coast. The home was perfect and the report was relatively easy to write compared to the last one where the flood had buckled due to a water leak and it was difficult to come up with a value that a willing buyer might be willing to pay. The check for that one came over the weekend. How nice those $500 checks are, how helpful in the scheme of things.
This evening I did the cheap pizza night at our local place. I was proud in that instead of my normal least self control at the door approach tonight I had a huge salad with everything good in it and just had a couple little pieces of olive pizza. The rest is in the frig to be metered out in tiny pieces over the next few days. For breakfast I did the oatmeal routine, it was great. If I am to regain my youthful weight, that of about 15 years ago I'll have to make choices and keep making them until they become routine. I keep hoping to be rescued by circumstances, someone else, divine intervention etc when I just need to change my habit patterns, eat smaller portions, include more veges and fruits and back off on the bread a bit. Today I've had lots of water and rewarded myself with a mocha after the water was down the hatch.
Well while I'm on a roll I'd better keep writing on the appraisal stack. I'm so thankful to have work and the ability to handle the work as well. Again in the morning I'm off to Antioch to see a purchase and then return to finish the report by evening. For this bank I'll see a check in a few days, always a good thing.
Sending love to all, please pray for those individuals with special needs right now. God knows and cares so much.

Windows 7, not from heaven!
Dear Family and Friends,
Well Windows 7 and the new computer took several more hours of my time today. As of this evening I think Jim has most of the elements working, now its just up to me to get used to them. Time will heal this mess I hope.
This morning after the walk in looking over the orders I found one in which I thought the people might use it as a second home, that meant that perhaps they were leaving, that is just what was happening. So I raced over, inspected the townhome and the guy could leave town. My how properties like this have fallen in value. They used to be high $300s but now probably about half that, very sad and its not getting better. Perhaps some new blood in Washington could spur things forward, oh how I hope so.
I've had a hard time remembering that today was Monday, felt like Sunday all day and I've really struggled with settle down and work. My blood sugar has been running well over 200 today all day and I'm sure that does not help anything. Now I need to turn my attention to getting some insulin and getting the numbers down.
Hope your week will turn out good for you. I certainly pray for good news all week, new orders, checks in the mail, you know that kind of thing.
Take care,
Love

Moving into a new chapter
Dear Family, Dear Friends,
Just home from child care with Kallie so Nikki and Steve could have an evening out. I consider it an honor when I get to help out, so much of my life is spent just thinking about my own survival, its good to get to do something helpful, live out my love as it were. Nikki just had Kallie's bangs cut and she is such a little cutie. Tonight she enjoyed feeding a treat to the dog, sneaking a chocolate donut and begging for a piece of a brownie from me. She played quietly and finally wound down enough to head up to bed. We read a story, she turned the pages and I read and Ariel, very sweet and age correct for her. Then she laid down in her bed, pulled up her blankets and I did not hear from her again. She was up late last night so that may have helped with her being sleepy.
This morning I tumbled out of bed, let the world gradually stop spinning, a normal event every morning when I first get up, the decided to take advantage of a very good quality tred mill that stands guard beside my bed by the window that looks out over the lake. So I rode program 1 for 30 minutes, saw my heart get up to 138, used about 200 calories or so and really enjoyed the experience. Then I hit the shower, dressed, had a whole wheat bagel and drove to Hercules to see a house. Once it was completed I shot new comps for another report, shot a front and street for yet another house and then drove back home. It was a pleasant work day.
Once home I set down and put the new comps into the appraisal and resent it, put the photos of the other home in and sent out an updated 1004D report. I then set up 4 orders that had come in over the weekend, tried to make sense once again out of the Windows 7 and my new computer, gave up and had a salad and sandwich before leaving to drive to Nikki and Steve's. All in all a good day.
Ken says we walk at 7:30 in the morning and then I'll spend the day writing reports and setting up new appointments.
I'm moving forward with social situations, tired of treading water I'm seeking clarification and direction. I'm sort of tired of sitting around and waiting for something to happen, for someone to just fall into my lap as pleasant as that sounds. I've lived much of my life trying to please everyone and often do not express how I feel about something, holding back due to being shy, uncertain or for lack of self confidence. Who likes rejection? I certainly don't and I so hate to end up looking, sounding or being stupid, making social mistakes. I've never spent any time being concerned about what I wear or even how I look as Nan always did the clothes buying, advising and would not let me walk out the door looking wrong. Most of the clothes in my closet are 15 to 20 years old or even more. Styles and colors have changed, I'm aware of that. Its yet another area of my life that I need to assert myself and take control of. I'm benefiting from new clothes from very savy children, new shoes, new light jacket and I like wearing them, they feel good, the shoes were amazingly comfortable from the first moment I slipped them on, the coat is warm and comfortable.
So a new year presents a new chapter to begin writing with actions, dreams, goals, exercises, attempts, leaps of faith. I have decided that if someone is to join me in the walk of life they have to be still engaged in life, not just ready to sit in a chair and withdraw from daily living. I need someone who thinks, challenges, grows and plans, someone who likes to move, to travel, to talk, to take mini vacations, who has a belief system and holds it dear, someone who is not selfish or self centered, someone who loves time with little ones and family.
Every day one of the on line dating services presents me with 15 choices, they all live nearby, many are attractive but if I want to know more I have to pay a fee and I'm about cutting expenses not adding to them but it is still interesting to see the photos, for some I sense that the photos are from a younger period in their lives than now, just wondering. Its called match.com and it has the best record of people finding people of all the sites, still it is challenging to move from a web site to a relationship, a leap I've not mastered yet.
Well for now I need to master falling asleep.
Love to all, life is a series of challenges, join me in meeting the challenges head on and making gains.
