Don’t they say “time flies when you’re having fun” ?  We’re packing away the decorations and lights;  wishing we’d avoided a few of the (fabulous) calories.  Already mentally replaying great memories of family visits, big chaotic meals, laughter and craziness.  Even if you are worn out these are the best of times.

The real estate work year was wonderful.  As I review the list of closed transactions I remember each home, each family story for every sale or purchase in 2010. It feels so great to assist a young couple buying their first home; to help an ailing senior get her large home sold and get her moved into a smaller, simpler condo.  One of my customers thought they could never get financing and buy their “own” home but we made it happen.  It’s an honor to be a part of these folks’ lives while they are making such major decisions.

As the sun sets on this year here’s to celebrating happy memories of 2010 for home and work - looking forward to a great 2011!
