If you would like to test your patience, laugh, raise your voice, and feel proud all at the same time; you should become a Pre-School Soccer Coach. For the most part it's herding cats, but when those little humans actually take what you teach them and score a goal, it's pretty magical.
What do little kids' soccer coaches really do?
We are cheerleaders, booger wipers, game refs, and cat herders. The goal of each practice is to
teach the kids a concept of soccer, through games (because they are only 4 years old). Each
practice usually ends up in a game of chase with every kid running in a different direction.
If you are interested in coaching kids in soccer visit the Central
Georgia Soccer Association website.

I am not a Real Estate agent, but I probably should have been. In seven years my husband and I have bought 4 properties. Two of those became rental investments. We sold three homes in less than a year in different parts of the country. I constantly look at market trends in different areas and research ways to build equity. We are nomadic, and always looking for our next home, whether that is in the same town, or another state. My favorite resource in finding homes on the market is Realtor.com
You can find property history, last sold price, school ratings, and market temperature on Realtor.com. Something we have learned is that Zillow, a popular Real Estate search site, will have different properties on the market than Realtor. That is because while Realtor pulls from the MLS, Zillow also pulls from the MLS second hand, and scours individual broker sites for other listings not on the MLS. A good rule of thumb when you are searching for property is to use both applications.
I love my home projects. I have painting thousands of square foot of walls, and have redone many different furniture pieces. When we buy a home, I like homes that are in great neighborhoods, with great lots, but need some TLC. I look past cosmetic issues like holes in walls, outdated paint, outdated kitchen, floor style, etc. All of that is an easy fix. If the home has good guts for the right price, I love it. I get joy in seeing my home go from unsellable to having equity built from my own sweat and time.
Here are a few projects I have done at our current home.
Lowes is my favorite site to price things out. They even price match competitors. My daughter says Lowes is "Mommy's Favorite Store".
Jingle "Belle", our Bernese Mountain Dog is 7 months old. She has an Insta, because her owner (me) is is super #basic. She's mostly chill for being a puppy, likes to dig holes, and eat a lot.
