Wow it's been almost four years since I posted on here. That is terrible. Not that I haven't had plenty go through my mind, I just went through a period where for whatever reason I forgot I have an outlet. Since I originally started this blog I've gone through some changes. A divorce, and a marriage. I've gotten my real estate license and changed jobs at the company I work for. And I still have this goal in mind to either make enough money that I dont have to "work" for anyone anymore or to be able to make enough money doing something else on the side that I don't have to mess with having an employer. I can travel and work while I am traveling and just enjoy my life. I don't want to work for someone else anymore, or play by their rules. I don't want to have to watch what I say or do in case it rubs someone else the wrong way. Very seldom am I actually trying to be mean or rude. I see something, I call it out, and that usually lands me in trouble. Unless I am with someone like my daughter that just sees it for what it is and thinks it is funny. Today there are two things on my mind. The first, the radio talk show I listen to in the morning. I love the show, don't get me wrong. But one of the hosts on there is touting a new weight loss plan. Today she said "I've tried everything to lose weight and I just couldn't do these past six years" and then went on to talk about how this new one is so great. Two years ago she was on a regular weight loss plan and working out at Curves and lost a bunch of weight. How do I know this? Because two years ago it is all she talked about and the radio had the commercials on constantly. So you lost weight, got lazy and gained it back. Then didn't want to do anything about it? Now you get a vitamin b-12 shot in the butt once a week and follow a "diet" and you are dropping weight. Good for you. But don't act like you can't lose weight and this is a miracle cure. My next rant is about the Real Estate industry. Granted I am new with my first listing. But when I send an inquiry to another agent on a property and get a rude response telling me to make the calls myself to get the information that she should have readily available on the property, AND it takes 24 hours to get back to me on a simple question I find that a little telling. No wonder people say Customer Service is dead in the Real Estate Industry. How sad. Anyway! I can promise I will be back with more so bring your friends and tell people to follow me if you like reading what I post.

About Me
- How I see it.....
- I am not from Omaha. I was born in Washington, and moved a lot. 12 different schools before I graduated high school. I've been married three times, divorced twice and have two daughters. One that just graduated High School and one that is almost 14 and going into eighth grade. I have a 40 hour a week job, doing what is neccessary to get by. My free time is spent having as much fun as possible, whatever that may entail. I love the people in my life, but I think I appreciate them because I don't spend a lot of time with them. That may sound bad but it works for me and does not diminish my fondness for them in the least. My goal is to retire about the time the baby graduates high school. A lofty goal I know and it may be unattainable but that is what I am aiming for. I am currently in the process of writing a book and hope to have a bestseller. I don't want to be famous, just wealthy enough that the only BS I have to put up with in life is that which I choose to put up with.
