With very little notice I emailed about 12 friends on Friday inviting them to our backyard Saturday morning to pick plums. For four hours Laurel, myself and our friend Dianne picked four or five bushels, (felt like a hundred) washed them all, froze some of them and finally, as we relaxed on the front steps with our coffees and tea, sold one and two-pound bags to passersby just for the heck of it. Laurel and I delivered bags of plums to all of our immediate neighbours too, some of whom we met for the first time. They were delighted. We still have about two bushels of washed, organic plums sitting on our kitchen counter... plums anyone?
Last week I pulled my bicycle out of the basement and discovered both tires had deflated over the winter. So I walked it to the nearest gas station to fill the tires and then rode to Whole Foods for some groceries. Phew! To think I used to ride up to UBC for fun just last year!
Two nights later a friend was waxing poetic about some meandering paved bike trails in the mountains near her house. While the thought of riding up hills is distinctly unappealing to me, being in the forest with my friends definitely tugged. Letting my heart guide me, I agreed to go bicycling in the mountains today. Who ever thought listening to one's heart would mean so much exercise?!
First thing this morning however, I will be trying to join a Skype call with some new investment buddies. We've all recently learned Phil Town's Rule #1 methodology and need to practice applying it.
Have a great day and week everyone. I'm off to Houston Texas this Tuesday to learn more about tax lien investing. Wish me luck!
Lots of love,
Tosh
