'Twas The Night Before Bye-Bye... Another Post In Rhyme :-)

By
Real Estate Agent with I.V.P.G. - Inland Valley Professional Group

Hi All,

Tonight I am once again inspired to post in rhyme, so here goes...

 

'Twas the night before bye-bye as I sat in my house, hearing the rumble of my snoring spouse.

Today has been busy, tomorrow is too, and Sunday is looming with bunches to do!

My car still needs cleaning, my house is a mess, the laundry's not done and I'm in distress!

My hair is no redder, my bags are not packed, And I'm starting to feel as if I've been attacked.

The mundane, the trite, all those piddly things, that suck up your day and give your time wings. 

And did I but mention that midst all this chaos, I actually have client's (the kind that will pay us!)

I've houses to show and offers to write, (the way things are going it will be a long night...)

But I'm not complaining, oh heaven's no, for in 36 hours it will be time to go!

I'll hit the road driving toward good old San Fran, and will be arriving as fast as I can.

I'm eager to see all my wonderful friends, and meet some brand new ones (the fun never ends!)

So Mary and Fran and Julie and Jeff... Oh golly jeepers there's still a lot left... 

Caleb and Jonathan, Cheryl and Matt, those cute guy's from Sellius and sweet, darling Pat,

Laurie and Joeann (who I hear's really nice), Kevin and ARDELL (who gives great advice)

And lest I forget, there's my precious Drew... I can hardly wait till I see all of you.

If your name is not up there, I don't mean to slight, but it really has been a very long night.

So I shall sign off as sleep seems to beckon, I may have a shot at an hour I reckon.

Please take care as always (I so hope you do), and help lots of people (I mean that one too), but most of all dear ones, as I always say, Please, pretty please... Have A Wonderful DAY!

Haven't said hello in a very long time. I sure wish I were going to SF. Just think of all the new friendships, blogging material and pictures and links, it just boggles the mind. Have a safe and great time. Cute on the poetry.

Sincerely,
William

Hi William,

I wish you were going as well.  it should be wonderful and marred only by your absence :-)  Glad you enjoyed it... this is what happens after too much caffiene and too little sleep :-)

Take care,

Tisza

Still one of the better writers I've read here Tisza!  That, you are.  I liked the rhyme, I like your reason, I could read you for days and not get bored.

Very cute. You could put Dr. Seuss out of a job!  Is Julie Ferenzi coming? (I was thinking I'd see her in Chicago when I'm there in Aug - maybe I'll meet her sooner!) This will be soooo much fun.

P.S. Looks like the weather in S.F. will be in the 60s.  Definitely a change from the 90s and 100s we've been having in Southern California.  Tisza, don't forget to take a sweater!  <s>

Hi All,

I'm glad you've enjoyed this... it sure has been fun... I like stupid poems just like this one :-)

They dribble from me with reckless abandon, I'm never quite sure just what they will land on.

I know they're not Shelly or Byron or Keats but still I enjoy them, each one is a treat.

So though it is silly, yes, that's surely true, it all is worthwhile for a smile from you!

Take care,

Tisza

Drive carefully to San Fran

And have a great time!

But when you get to the podium

Don't talk in rhyme!

Best of luck to you Tisza!

Hi All,

Irina - Thank you, I enjoy doing things like this - keeps it fun!

Peggy - You're advice is good that's true, I'll do my best to listen to you :-)

Laura - I am hoping to absorb every pearl of wisdom, every nugget of information and every single solitary dribble of insight that I can.  I am sorry that you won't be able to be there, but you can be sure that I will share all that I learn with everyone here.

Michele - I will do all of the above.  Thanks for your good wishes!

Take care all, help lots of people and have a wonderful day!
