Changes

I have been really bad about posting lately and I hope to get back to normal soon here. It's been a hectic week and although a lot has happened I never seem to get the time to post about it.

First of all remember I told you I had my house for sale. Well after no offers and not clicking with our real estate agent we decided to re list with another one. We never really hit it off with the first one. He was nice guy but just didn't seem to have time for us. I guess he thought you put up a sign and it will sell. Well todays market is different. Anyways the wife did the dirty part (fired the agent) and I did the good part. I hired the lady who originally sold us the place. She was awesome then and we should have gone to her in the first place. Well what a difference. She did so much more for us in two days than what had happened in two months. She came over and restaged the house, gave us lots of tips, made up these fancy brochures with pics of our place. Took fabulous pictures and promoted the place like it should have been done. So what happened?? Well supposedly we are getting an offer this morning?? After only 4 days listing with her. Even if the offer isn't what we are expecting at least it's something. Plus we have two more showings today so lots of action.... We also gave up the place we were going to buy but made an offer on another place which is just as nice and about 25 grand cheaper. Of course the offer is subject to the sale of our place... Got my fingers crossed.

I have been playing a lot of live poker lately. A lot of tournaments locally. I did real well in the week after coming back from Vegas. I had a second, 2 fourths and 2 fifths. These are all in 40-60 player local tournaments so I was running great. I like to think its Vegas karma but it came to an end this week when I exited the 3 live tournaments I played before hitting the final table. I knew it had to come to an end sometime as you can't keep running good all the time.
