I just wanted to get this on here quick like. My dog is in the hospital, she's a 9 year old red Australian shepherd with one brown and one blue eye. Trying to stay positive. Because of that, I just want to keep this brief. I have to go pick her up.

Tomorrow will be a better day.

These might not make sense to anyone right now but will be explained later.

O.M.G.I had the most amazing time!! I can't begin to describe how my life and outlook have changed! I won't ever be the same. Being in Las Vegas was secondary. This event could have been anywhere!! I am more emotional about it than I ever thought I would be, so, it is very difficult to talk about. I just hope that Bob took away value from this trip, because I know I and everyone else did!! I beleive there will be a 100% success rate as a result of this bootcamp. I am committed to being successful and it will happen for me, or I will die trying! Yep, you heard it. Game face is on, I'm gonna kick tail!! --deep breath--

Vegas was hot. We didn't gamble, but we watched the roulette wheel and made guesses and I walked away with my money still in my pocket and felt smart. We went to the top of the Stratosphere at night , the lights were amazing, Vegas is a very big place!! Tim was on his own Friday, he didn't cause too much trouble, at least he didn't tell me about it ;) . We all went to the Rio Buffet, the largest amount of food I have ever seen!! We all had fun. We lost Kevin though.

We were able to see a couple of actual deals that Bob is working on and got to ask questions.

On our way home we took a pit stop at Buffalo bills, Tim put a dollar in the machine waiting for me to return and won $40.00. I put 10.00 on a side bet on roulette and won $20.00 so, we came home $49.00 winners, woo!!

I have so much to do this week that it is difficult to take the time to post this blog. Too much swimming around in my head. I'm thinking of building a casita and moving my office into it :) That was random.

Gotta go, gotta goal!!

OH YEAH... I am looking for some private money. I would like a money partner to split profits with on my deals.

Have a killer week!!

Ah, Monday

I'm so glad Stephani started this accountability Monday!! Either I have accomplished more or just been aware that I have accomplished more. I haven't written about all the mundane stuff I have achieved, It's a lot! All good.

Drove all over tar-nation delivering Mother's day wishes to Gramas and Moms. Next year, BBQ, my house, I'm not goin' anywhere! I am celebrating MY mother's day today. Dinner with the Son's and their honeys.

I finished the details of the spare room just in time to have my Son move back home for a couple of months. Oh well, now I don't have to move the stuff in the den. Woo Hoo two goals done!!

ok, last weeks goals:

1) finish painting the spare room. Check
2) finish moving stuff to the spare room. Check
3) meet with Dee Dee. Check
4) start presentation outline with timeline for completion. Check
5) obtain remote mls access to Vegas ~harder than I thought
6) follow up with zip realty. ~they probably blocked my email and think I am a loonie. So Check ~screw them
7) familiarize myself with postlets ~Check ~made an account
8) get Kevin's craigslist copy for private money. ~emailed Kevin...no response
9) work on vision board. ~gathering clippings and photos....half Check
10) get someone's login to realcomp. failed, didn't even try
11) review Saturday workshop and submit questions. ~ Check~but, Missed the Wednesday call because of prior engagement....I don't think it was recorded..bummer

So, carry over goals would be:
1) follow up with Kevin
2) try to get mls access while I am in Vegas IN 3 FREAKIN DAYS YEAHYA, oh, I'm so excited!!
3) put together vision board
4) locate someone with realcomp
5) NEW GOAL review kiss flipping stuff
6) get the van serviced
7) pack before end of Tuesday, I don't know why but I am always last minute on the packing thing.
8) finish listening to T. Harv Ecker Millionaire Mind....SO much easier to listen to than read. Only 3 hours long. I might have to listen twice to some stuff because I am doin other stuff while listening. THE Best stuff I have listened to in a long time. I say stuff a lot.

I downloaded Eddie Izzard voice for the tomtom navi, that should be fun. I would insert a link on Eddies name so you could see who he is, but, I don't know how to do all of that fancy stuff. :) ...yet

So, If anyone has some "don't miss it" ideas for Vegas, I'd love to hear them. We have one night free. We're goin' on the cheap so, no 'cirq de so much money' shows. We might just drive for dollars 'till it gets too dark to see, then head back to the strip.

Gotta go, many chores, few moons!

Hummingbirds

I drove my target 'hood' yesterday and took 2 for rent sign phone numbers, no answer, no machine on either...strange. I saw one rehab, maybe. I didn't research to see if it was an owner occ so I didn't stop to speak at them. I'm thinking about talking to my credit union as the "local bank" I'm pretty friendly with all the folks at the branch and it is a pretty small but strong credit union. Couldn't hurt. I just need to rehearse my schpeel.

I emailed zip realty again regarding the solds not showing up in their predict it game. I've been messing around playing since mid December and no sold information yet? What is the point of trying to predict if there is no feedback? So, I'm pretty sure the market has changed since mid December. Frustrating. I have emailed them 4 times now, no response. I would let it go but I use this as a cool tool when I don't have mls access. I don't have 24/7 mls access like I'd like. I've been looking at Tampa, Las Vegas and Sacramento. We had a lul in foreclosure listings since January, but now I'm noticing Las Vegas is letting them out pretty regular now. I plan to check it out when (if) I go in a couple of weeks. I'm even tossing around the thoughts of moving there for a couple of years. Tim hates the heat. We will see.

I'm right on track with my accountability Monday tasks. Thank you Steph!

One of the brokers that I was thinking of hanging my license with passed away last weekend, she was 53. Life is short and precious eh? Her services are Monday, My Mom and I will go.

I checked out the positive affirmations from one of Jerry's past blog posts. On the same link was vision board stuff. I was kickin around the idea of creating one and almost bought a book. Now I don't have to because it is all right there, funny how answers are there sometimes. I've been using the Bob Norton affirmation every time I see money, "I am a money magnet. Money is easy and flows freely into my life." Then I add, "As it is." Then I can't help but saying, "Same as it ever was" from Talking Heads cause I'm goofy like that. I should probably take it more serious.

On an unrelated note, I can't keep the hummingbird feeders full. It is a good thing they are small. They are fierce little creatures. I think I've said that before. Then this bird crashed the party, only when I had the camera out.

Have a great Thursday!
