Have you ever had one of those wacky days when nothing seems to go right?  I don't mean one or two things going wrong I mean a day where your chain is 1/2 a cog off the link.

My day started out great. The weather was perfect, warm and sunny.  I even woke up with plenty of time to get ready for my showings.  Like always I stopped at the computer, check a few emails, answered the best ones and took off for the office.

WITHOUT my phone!!!

Of course I didn't realize at the time I left WITHOUT my phone.  Had I figured it out BEFORE I drove 7 miles, I would have turned around to get my PHONE!  Instead I wasted valued phone retrival time getting a Chai and chatting with some neighbors.

At the office the clock told me I had 12 minutes to spare before my clients arrived, I realized my phone was at home.  grrrrrrr!

Decisions, decisions do I make my clients wait? Or do I rough it?

I hate to wait so I figured I'd rough it.  How often do we really, truly need a phone.  hahaha

The first showing was awful. Dirty, overpriced and vacant.  Just to be sure we really hated everything about it, I ventured outside to the back yard, my client following me.

That's when we both saw the TWO big black dogs, coming toward us. My client jumped two feet into the air, scaring the dickens out of me, who immediately did the same. I ran back into the house, only I slipped on the slimmy floor, landing completely flat.

OUCH! silently said my brain, while trying to look ok.  Ouch, crap my khakis are now stained from the slimmy floor. Lucky for me my clients are cool and didn't think having a Realtor on the floor was the least little strange.

We decided that house was a no go.

Next we on tour was a home where the tenants locked the deadbolt. We couldn't get in.  #3 was a contender (my luck is changing).  #4 we never found.  We have a theory since the neighbor was having an open house they removed the sign.  The unit number didn't match the MLS so maybe when the place has been on another 365 days the listing agent will check his work...(read sarcasm here)

#5 is better than #3 but only in his mind not hers.  Oh well they have time to work that out, they aren't married yet. I wonder who will win.

Done with clients.

Off to Cherry Creek Farmers' Market.  Everyone is closing down. Darn, too late.

Go home to plant my flowers.  Just when I get half way done, it starts to rain.  Did you know that potting soil turns to mud in the rain?  Oh well.

It's been an Elk of a day.  Looking forward to tomorrow.
