On spring break with my 15 year old, I tried to race one of her friends on the slalom course and it ended predictably - My daughter's friend won and I fell and fractured my leg - at least I didn't tear my ACL. Instead, I spent the rest of my spring break recuperating on the sofa in the condo while my daughter and her friend skied all over Vail mountain. I was pretty happy with my computer and time to work without interruptions and grateful for the really superior medical treatment that I received from the Vail doctors. Not surprisingly, they know knee injuries inside and out!
Then I came home and needed to see a doctor here in DC. The Vail doctors referred me to a doctor who had just moved to DC from Vail. I had complete confidence in this newly relocated doctor since he is trained by the Vail doctors.
My first doctor's appointment was two weeks ago and somehow the conversation turned to the housing market (I can't imagine how!). What I didn't consider is that since he just moved to DC he hasn't bought a house yet. You guessed it .... he needs a realtor. He and his wife are looking for a home in Bethesda or Chevy Chase, exactly where I have just created a new website, www.homesinchevychasebethesda.com. I started telling him about some of the listings I have seen recently since I have another client looking for basically the same type, price, and size home.
Ever welcoming to newcomers to the DC area, I offered to send him links to those listings. Today, I saw him again. My leg is mended and he has been driving around checking out some of the houses I had sent him. I told him about another new listing, will send him the link tonight, and then will take him and his wife to see it. We seem to be getting along and I think there amy be a future here!
You know, sometimes, getting hurt can have its own rewards!
