Jakob update

what we thought was a rash from the pool turned out to be chicken pox!! Jakob was the 13th case in the 4th grade at his school!! But he is dealing well with them!!!!

lesson learned today

Never ever get your hopes up so much that in the end it gets you so upset you are almost in tears.let me expain. I am going to school as some of you know to become a real estate agent. At first I was having second douts about a broker that I was going to sign with. I went to a meeting and walked away very confused. Today I desided it would be make or break with this broker and went to another meeting. At the meeting I learned of the "training" and desided that it would be o.k. for me to give this broker a chance. I knew there was a sign on fee but never did I realize that the sign on fee was so much. When I first talked to him there was no sign on fee and I did not sign on when I first talked to him. Now he has implyed this fee of $600. I came home read over my contract....still on a high of getting hands on training this week with a mentor. I even got keys!!! I contacted the broker via email to see if there was a way we can work out the fee, lets face it I do not have $600 to sign on but was willing to work for it, payment plan, anything. He nicely said no there could not be a payment thing or work out thing because my mentor that was assigned and the secertary ( btw is my aunt ) gets that fee money. So I wrote back and said I would return the keys to my aunt. I was in tears when I called her. she knows I am upset and said not to give up hope, but honestly I am. I am sure there is someone out there that does not have sign on fee's, after all tho I still have to take the state test!!! Lets hope I donot run into things like this again. I guess it is just a lesson learned.

Jakob

Jakob got a rash from the swimming pool. Poor kid's back and COVERED in Hives. Those white dots you see are hives with the cream on them, next picture is the hives themself after the cream was rubbed in and the next is a picture of Jakob just joking about his hives, and if you look close you will see he does have a few on his front too. At first Griffen Hospital thought it was chicken pox like I did too but he had the vaccine for it before going to preschool. Then they watched them and desided it was a rash not the pox. Jake was all ready to start his summer vacation a day early.....sorry charlie maybe next time LMAO!!!
