Just Forget About It...At Least for a Little While

Sometimes it's best to just forget about it.

Forget about the challenging home inspection. Forget about the low-ball offers. Forget about the whining co-workers. Forget about the failed well test. Forget about the seemingly endless "The buyers really liked the house but they decided to write on something else" comments.

Forget about the seller's pressures to "Bring me an offer!" Forget about the buyer picking apart the living room wall paint color and the kitchen cabinet handles. Forget about the expired listing. Forget about the feelings of failure. Forget about the frustration. Forget about the negative economic reports.

Forget about the pile of bills. Forget about the IOUs. Forget about the car with 175,000+ miles on it that keeps making that weird noise. Forget about the pressure you inflict upon yourself. Forget about the pressure others are putting on you.

For just awhile, forget about all of it.

Take some time -- a couple hours or a day -- to just relax and enjoy the scenery. Recharge yourself. Remember and focus on the good things. Know that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Know you are doing the best job you can do. Know all will be alright.

Couldn't agree with you more! Sometime a good time out is just the trick to get better focus on a situation.

Betty -- Enjoy your three hours -- I just "forgot" everything for a couple of hours this afternoon with a visit to the marina. Was exactly what I needed.

Janet -- Exactly!! And boy, did I need a time out. :)
