Whew what a weekend! There were 10 year old girls screaming all weekend. Oh yeah I was at my little girls birthday bash all weekend we had fun and here on this misty rainy Monday. I had a few moments to reflect on the past event as I rose in pain early this morning.

More on that in a minute. I really did have a blast. I worked pretty late on Saturday and my daughter, her friends, my wife and my son were all waiting. When i arrived it was late and these girls had tons of “sugar powered energy”. We went till the early hours in the morning.

Then Sunday came along and we did the bowl-a-thon for a couple of hours. These girls had me on three out of the four lanes. I was speed bowling on some rounds when all two or thre lanes lit up with my name. Needless to say last night I was beat. I woke up for an early appointment this morning and felt like a frieght train and I had wrestled around for a couple of hours.

After I finished my morning calls I decided to make a couple of adjustments to my blog and finish up my review of my new friend Chris’s article 2010 the rise of the sophisticated real estate investor.
