Surviving the Fourth......

Well we did it we survived the Fourth. My parents came down and we spent it just relaxing around the house. They actually came down to move my brother and his family back to Idaho and so they spent the fourth with us....It was fun, but kind of sad to because now we are the only ones in Kansas. It's kind of like we are all alone, I know that we didn't spend alot of time together when he lived here but it was nice to know that he was close by....

Right now Real Estate business is really slow. I am about ready to go nuts, so I got a part time hob as the night manager at the local grocery store, what a joke that is basically my job is to babysit high school kids that don't show up to work call in sick and back talk worse than my kids do....They don't pay me enough for that....As soon as i find a house to flip I'm quitting, no 2 weeks or anything I'm just handing in my keys and leaving.

Well I finally got a trailer for my boat now maybee I will go fishing more. I like to go just not by myself. When Dusty came down i had a blast, but going by myself is just not the same....I was going to start painting the house but I then realized that I probably didn't have enough time with work and then more work, so I guess it will have to wait until next spring....Along with about a hundered other projects....Well it's getting late so I better get to bed..Until next time.....

Real Estate and Rain........In Kansas??????

Well it's been an interesting week here in Kansas. We had 21 inches of rain in three days, ( not what I would have expected when moving to Kansas ) anyway you look at it thats alot of water!!! They closed down several highways and evacuated many towns. I've got enough water in my backyard to float my fishing boat. Meanwhile house selling in Emporia, KS is kind of slow right now, a couple deals that I had totally fell apart and there wasn't much I could do about it except stand back and watch. But I guess that thats part of the game...I am now in the process of looking for a house to rehab and then sell for a profit, this is something I would like to do here for awhile and make use of some of my free time between appointments. I am currently working on the house that me and my family live in and that of course will be an ongoing project. Shortly I will post some pics of the house before and after for all of those who haven't seen it yet. Hunting is still a ways off, but of course I am constantly getting ready for it in some way or another. I am hoping to come back to Idaho and Mule Deer this year, but I am waiting to see if I drew a tag, of course I will also fit in some Duck hunting to......Until next time......
