Yesterday I had the priviledge of being "INVITED" to go golfing with a Lender. The only person I ever golf with is my husband. That's because I make occasional trips back to the clubhouse, talk on the phone to clients, and maybe do my nails. Oh, there was one time that I actually brought a book. It was a really good, steamy one that I just couldn't put down.
So as I am trying to impress this partner, I just kept my head down, like the pros say, brought my club all the way back, and swung like the dickens. Boy, what a beauty...high and gorgeous...until it hit the utility box about 50 yds. in front of us and veered to the right in a perfect trajectory into a pond. That was a proud moment, indeed.
So we giggled as women do, and trudged onward to the next holes trying different clubs along the way in hopes that I could break 150. It was about hole 15 when I realized there was no hope of that and I wished I had my book.
Oh, on Hole 17 I did out drive my partner and I felt on top of the world! I shouted and laughed and jumped up and down like a toddler watching Barney for the first time. Then she meticulously out putted me again for the 17th time and at that point, I would have done anything for that book!
I had an "OPRAH" moment and realized that golfing is a lot like looking for a house. You just have to keep trudging along with your Realtor and wait for that once in a life time shot to find the perfect home. So here is my worldly advice in finding your next home...be patient, stay out of the rough (if you can), and keep your numbers low.
