Taking the Day Off...Not Exactly.

My Office is With Me.

An email alerted us to an illness of a favorite cousin's husband. We drove to Pennsylvania to make a hospital Visit. We needed to spend some time with our cousin during this difficult time.

Only an hour an half drive from Baltimore but a big chunk out of a busy day.

How lucky to have my Lee as a chauffeur. I was able to make appointments..four on my newest listing, stay in touch with the seller, take one cancellation, answer emails, talk to a future listing, schedule a settlement, call a couple of ActiveRainers and do some blogging. No one knew I was not at my office.

Taking the Day Off...Not Exactly.

My Office is With Me.

Margaret, Being mobile is my favorite aspect to the new technology. I can be shopping and talk with my buyers and sellers. My girlfriend thinks it is hysterical to watch.

Ah! Centalized Showing Service could have come to the rescue! Last year I finally bit the bullet and was amazed at how well the system works.

Jeanne and Ralph, Technology allows us the flexability to take down time as needed.

Debbie, Our friends put up with us. Phone is always on vibrate. I excuse myself as though I am going to the little girl's room and take calls.

Pat, Glad the system works for you. I always make my own appointments. One person had to cancel last minute and I was able to alert my seller. They called after CSS hours to schedule a showing first thing tomorrow morning. That would have been a missed showing.

Amazing what an iPad and phone can do (with you, of course!) I hope your cousin's husband is ok.
