Hope you had a great Thanksgiving! Mine was good. I hosted 8 people at my home, including family and friends. I said grace on behalf of everyone before the meal-and I got a little choked up. Even though times are tough and things are slow, I still consider myself one of the lucky ones. I have family and friends who love me, a roof over my head (well, not just any roof, but a really cool house), my health, lots of real estate contacts, a dog and a cat who think I hung the moon....and the list goes on and on. I am pretty lucky-and realized it while I was giving thanks.
Coldwell Banker/HPW has a kiosk at Crabtree Mall which I love working in. For me, it's a great way to meet potential clients. I am very comfortable in that kind of setting, and enjoy meeting people that way. I can easily strike up a conversation with strangers, and have definitely met some potential clients at the Kiosk!
Anyway, I digress. :-) I worked in the Kiosk on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, from 6-9:30p.m. I was curious to see how crowded the mall would (or wouldn't) be.
I was actually quite surprised. I saw quite a few people with shopping bags. I know this sounds weird, but it actually made me feel good to see people out spending money. I was talking with my fellow agent Gary who was before me that night in the Kiosk. We both agreed that if we could all spend just a little money, how much that would boost our economy!! My wheels are turning, and I'm trying to figure out what I can spend my money on to help boost our economy.
