Back-to-School Lull

[Nick Ostrowski]

Anybody else going through this right now? I know it happens every year but at least this time I'm getting some stuff done around the house.

[Eric Shuman]

Was that my phone ringing?

Nope, dang it, just the school bell down the street. :D

Been slower than usual for two weeks around here. At least I get to catch up on the posts here.

don't worry Nick.
Mommy will be shopping again shortly.
I am sure they are all shaking like a junkie without a fix after a few weeks without looking at Kohler fixtures, and creaming over the brand new kitchen they will be remodeling.

It's still echoing in my ears.
" do you think their going to fix that?"

Same thing here. Last of August through most of September. I've had a lot of price shoppers and got to have it NOW procrastinators. My wife and I went to the beach for a few days the end of last week. The phone started ringing as we were driving down to OBX. "Sorry, I'm booked until Monday the 17th." It was a great 4-day break.

Say what? I fell asleep with my head on my desk. :D

It's been crazy for me . Last 3 weeks I started out with 0 -1 and 2 for the week, then got 5 or 6 calls on a mon or tue. phones then quiet until thur or fri .
Wife thinks cool. here's your list of honey do's for the week.
By the end of the week I am ending up with 8 or 9, no honey do's completed, and no time to order and read nathans book :)

Been a little slow here in mfd. homes in So. Cal. six this week. My homes in escrow so I have a little time to get ready for the "inspector". Seems I get my honey do list finished and there's a new one. My new home's in escrow so I'll have to go over and do the inspection there.

We've seen a drop-off from the summer (which was fantastic, btw)..... it's still decent and seems to be picking up. Lots of calls, scheduled jobs, cancellations, re-schedules, etc., etc.

I come home some days feeling like I spent the whole day on the phone only to have the same number of jobs I left the house with.

Unusually slow this month. Likely to be my slowest Sept since I opened in 2005. Not exactly sure why, but like others have said it is a good time to catch up.

[CHARLIE VAN FLEET]

still busy here--every month is busier then the last for the last three years--looking for that two week golf vacation in december
