So, OK I'm totally feeling better. More interested in "everything." Not cynical when I smile. I even laughed today, genuinely! I want to know if it's the "Extra Strength" valerian sleepytime tea, or the 6 ibuprofen daily, or the "topical" progesterone.... the world may never know. But, in combination, these three miracles of modern science have combined to make my world a happier place.
I still think that not having two houses, winning a limited lottery (just enough to pay off the bills), and an extreme makeover on me, my family and my house, would just about be the bomb.

Let the medicating begin!
My doctor was also unable to find any multiheaded hydra-like growths on my ultrasound, in fact in our conversation today, she said she frankly found nothing out of the ordinary. Yay.
So now "we" are trying a topical application of progesterone for two weeks.
Topical?
Yeah, you rub it into your wrists.
Wild.
Yeah.

Normal?
Today I really felt connected again. Which tells me this whole thing is hormone related.
No word from my doctor today, which means that I will have to call her tomorrow to beg once more for the hormone laden anything I wanted at my visit two days ago.... OK, I'll calm down, but crap, lets get this done for crap's sake!
I had my usual list of things to do today, but contrary to how I was effected before by calls coming in that threw assunder my well laid plans, this time I was bouyed emotionally by contact with other people. Yeah, I had to practically drag myself out of the house for the 9:00 meeting at a local coffee shop, but it turned out to be non-combative, so I felt good after it was over. I managed to stop by Downtown Dad's office later and then finished up some paperwork at my own office before scampering for shelter at home.
I was only at home for a little while when I started getting return calls on the messages I had left earlier. These messages always make me feel better since I can then schedule things and add items to my "to do" list on my own time.
We had not one but two calls from people interested in our house today. I did not mention the contingent offer on the table, that I will save for a face to face meeting. I also managed to move a closing date, and make contact with another client who wants to store some belongings at a vacant house before closing.
Another call I got today was from a couple who are friends of mine but who are and have been very reluctant to pay the non-negotiable 7% marketing fee that we charge. They have tried to sell their home and the home of their parents - unrepresented. They have tried a cut rate realtor who in effect stuck a sign in the yard and walked away. And now, after two years of showing them houses, and offering them market analyses, and hanging out (because remember - we're friends...) The wife called me this afternoon and asked if there was any way we could negotiate on the heretofore stated unnegotiable marketing fee. ...I will do a market analysis of the two homes they want to sell, and I will present my marketing presentation to them - again - tomorrow. And, again, I will present to them the "you get what you pay for" schpeil.
So, that is my day - aside from the fact that I signed up for Google's Ad Sense program in hopes that I will make some money from this blog experiment, so if you feel inclined, click on one or two of the ads you see displayed here. Thanks. It means a lot to me.
