31 March

Each morning I receive an email update from Trulia with listing updates. This morning there was a very interesting bank owned property in Incline Village. I spent the next few hours emailing back and forth with my real estate agent in Incline. Thanks to her quick investigation, we found out that what I thought was a bargain was in fact a bargain that would entail about $300K in renovations. Ouch. Good news? It proved to me that when something does become available, I will move quickly.



My dear friend Larramie, dispenser of insight and wisdom called me out on 'hedging' my bets in yesterday's post....and she's right, when I want something dearly I often lose confidence and thus hedge to soften the blow of disappointment that I'm sure is just around the corner. So today I'm going to be brave, I am amending the last paragraph of that hedge-y post:



So, one decision has been made: my intention is to find a job and a house in the Lake Tahoe area. I WILL be able to find the successful combination of my intention and the realities of the job market, I will remain open to the best outcome.



There. That's better. (fingers crossed!)

Well done, Suzanne. After all, what type of writer would you be without needing to rethink and revise?
