The sun is shining. My grass seed is sprouting and today is a better day. Yesterday turned out to be rather pleasant. I got to make a long over due eye appointment.Dan and I went to dinner at Brick Town and got to eaves drop on the Blues festival with friends and had a relaxing evening.
Today another good friend is getting her things put away in her new home and happy with her decision to downsize. I dreamed last night that her beautiful china cabinet was so large it took up the whole of the living room. I spoke to her this morning and it fit very nicely in the dining room. It feels pretty good when it all comes together for people and all that stress and pressure getting those dates times and figures to hit, pays off in a win win for all concerned.
It also is good to have a job that actually does help people get where they want to be.
So even if yesterday was a chip to my confidence in one way it was a boost to my sense of professionalism and worth in another.I was reassured that God does listen to us in prayer over those day to day things. It is truly amazing how he put the pieces together to make my friend's home purchase come out just right in the nick of time.
Thanks Jesus.You are always good.

Dear Dear
It is funny how one can go through a whole lifetime with the proverbial head in the sand about something and be totally unaware of it. I found myself in that position this morning.
Someone dear to me was in the area and I foolishly cleared my day thinking we would want to spend some time together. This friend has recently experienced some trials and I thought a little uplifting may be in order. The same friend has entered my life in a few of my trials and I was pleased to experience the friendship that was offered.I found,however, that I was not sought as a comfort or friend but someone requiring a particular energy or mood . I am a person that one must be "up for". I was not looked at as one who can offer comfort and peace but as a threat to the peace that was being sought.
WOW! I am not sure how to deal with the emotional temptation to feel a sense of rejection.I suppose the healthy thing to do is consider the sadness temporal and normal and go to on the next thing. As my dad wisely taught,"Kathy, everyone is not going to like you."
I do pray for the friend to find the peace they seek and for God to comfort them in this difficult time. I will also have to pray for myself that my tendency to self-protect will not hinder me from being there for someone who may not see me as that bit of a pain to deal with.

The Local Market
I have been really busy. I am guessing Edmond, Oklahoma is not in quite the peril of other states. This week I have had 3 listings sold. One in about 30 minutes. One buyer sold and a new listing and a new buyer. Next week I have to get back into lead generating and get my listings inventory built back up.
A good problem to have. Everything sold. I do have a signing appointment today at one. Yea!!
