Last week was one of the most exhausting I have had in my real estate career.  Getting a reprieve for a seller about to be foreclosed on was also one of the triumphs.  It won't be complete until I save the sale, but I feel it is downhill from here.  The mountain of short sales files waiting for approval reached a crescendo, but this week I expect to get the "o.k." on two.  At least.  I have finally chilled out.  I took a walk this morning, the first morning walk in a few weeks.  I was very nice to two negotiators.  I did not put on the calculating, cold-response aura with impregnable walls. It's really o.k.  Wendy
