Let’s face it, realtors don’t have normal schedules.  We often work 7 days a week and rarely have a chance to take a day off without having our phones ring.  Work follows us everywhere interrupting anything and everything.  So with that in mind I have to admit I really like holidays like Independence Day where people are focused on home, family and fun because I get the opportunity to have a day where I can relax.

 

Oddly though, it also kinds of throws me out of my workaholic loop and I have to spend days getting back in the swing of things after having my normal schedule interrupted.  I have to admit I enjoyed going to the movies with a friend and doing some long neglected shoe shopping.  It reminded me of how I have to make time for myself even on non-Holidays.  And it reminded me that if I can get used to that maybe the hiccup of taking a day off won’t impact my routine so much.
