Monday! Monday! Can't Trust That Day!!!

By
Title Insurance with Patriot Land Transfer, Inc.

I think this is the first post in which I revealed a serious flaw of mine...my extreme distaste for Mondays...notice I didn't say...hate...I'm trying to eliminate the use of that word from my vocabulary...

Now, this week is a four day work week what with the fourth of July falling on Friday!!! That, of itself, makes Monday a little bit more palatable...

So, eventually, the only thing I'll really hate is sin!!! Not the sinner, just the sin!!!

Now, the first piece of business I saw this morning was a question on 'Sheriff Sales' from a local gentleman looking to become an investor! After my usual cautions against this particular pasttime (sheriff sales), I tried to point the poptential investor more in the right direction, offering some general tips and hints on how to get started...of course this included the possible use of a competent real estate attorney...always a good suggestion...

Which brings me to my next universal tip for all, investors and buyers included...why not seek the assistance of a seasoned buyer's agent for all your real estate purchase needs...you get professional experience, knowledgeable market information, and the seller pays for the service...what a win/win...

But don't call one on Monday...they're usually kicking back from an exhausting work weekend!!!

And tell them, Fran sent you...that should get you some special treatment!!!

I used to try to schedule Mondays as my day off.  Well since most of the work is done on the weekends, Monday is clean up day...you know, following up etc.  So I try to make Tuesday my day off!  It doesn't always work, but at least it makes it a light day!  Don't worry, Monday's half over!

Fran, I think weeks should begin on Tuesdays. This one with the 4th as a holiday makes it a bit shorter for us so life is good. Enjoy yours!!

We found something we disagree on... I love Mondays- I love to hop out of bed and start the week with a sense of renewal. I always sign up for floor time on Monday morning . I know I am weird- I just love Monday.

Barbara,

My dislike for Mondays comes from a time when I disliked my work...now that I like what I do I look forward to Mondays, except I do enjoy the family weekend time!!! Thanks,   Fran

I think loving what you do is a big part of it. I love mornings, Mondays and what I do- I am very blessed.

Fran - I'm with you... I've never been a big fan of Monday's either.  I like mornings, just not necessarily Monday morning. haha
