RNO Homes

I am working with a really cool group of Keller Williams agents that meets every Tuesday morning to discuss how we can be even better at our chosen career.  Check us out at www.rnohomes.com

Last week as I was getting ready to go to my meeting I followed my normal morning routine.  I went downstairs to make sure the coffee had started.  I program it the night before but I never trust the machine (or myself) to start like it is supposed to.  Then go back upstairs to shower and get ready for the day.

As usual I went back down to get my coffee, check my e-mail, look for new and exciting home listings, and get my stuff together for work.  I have no fewer than 5 clocks in my kitchen and great room, but evidently I only look at the one over the sink.  You know the one...the one with a dying battery...the one that is running ten minutes behind.  Of course I didn't realize this.  I just thought I was really good at getting coffee and checking e-mail!

Even though I know my way I hit "Keller Williams Reno Office" on my Garmin and off I went.  I was only 3 or 4 miles from the house when I realized that I was going to arrive at 7:59.  My meeting is at 8.  And I still had to deal with McCarran and 395!  So, naturally, I hit every single stop light between my house and the office. I didn't just hit 'em, I hit 'em hard...so that I got to sit through the longest part of the light cycle.  It was f-f-f-antastic!  I like to have plenty of time to navigate the parking lot, get to our meeting room, fire up my computer.  I had no time for any of that .  Look at that Garmin!  I'm not going to arrive until 8:04!  8:05!  8:06!

Today I outsmarted the kitchen clock.  I'm not smart enough to actually change the battery, but I looked at the one on the microwave.  And the one by the door. And the one on the oven.  And the one on the mantle. You get the idea.  I gave myself plenty of time.  I hit one red light.  And I arrived almost 15 minutes early.  Grrr...
