Reality Check

Mandi & I have had several of these "Reality Checks" lately. Reality checks concerning alittle bit of everything, especially time, time that we think we have, but time we really don't have. We believe if we have a spare moment, we need to fill it by doing or making something or going somewhere. Down time, what is that? Our kids know the word Go and bypass stop!! We invested, some time ago in an office that needed minor work, could move in quickly and get right to work, WRONG (who is our realtor?)!! Mandi and I went right to work, scraping floors (I thought it would be quick and easy project with sand paper) well the room grew and the project turned into a major overhaul, Reality Check!! Well with this office has a garage apt. that our rentors just moved out, and so the conservative spenders we are were trying to determine how to save money....Mandi hates to paint!!! Well guess what, pulling carpet and paint are on the list of saving money....Reality Check!! Mandi was ready to put a for sale sign in the yard until another REALITY CHECK hit her, not a good market!! Thanks to "Gene" who always comes running when something goes wrong, I do believe we brighten his day because all he does is laugh at our REALITY CHECKS, we should put him on the payroll!!! By the way, Mandi, today is show and tell day....REALITY CHECK...u missed it!!
