Wardrobe malfunction!

Last week I had a  meeting with Christine Meekma, HSBC Premier Manager (she’s one of the most amazing bankers I’ve had the pleasure of working with by the way).  As I walked into the bank for my appointment my nylon gave way and began falling rapidly towards my ankle.  How does that happen with brand new nylons??  The dilemma was how to pull it up with nobody noticing.  Naturally I could just feel everyone staring, not to mention all the cameras in the bank that I was sure were zooming in on my location!  There was only 1 fellow waiting where I was so I took my chances, turned around and gave a quick yank up. Relief. Right then Christine was making her way towards me and as I started to walk across the bank trying to look cool and composed, down went the nylon again.  That was of course, when someone commented on my cool shoes! There was nothing I could do at this point, so I squirmed and maneuvered trying to pull it up the whole time.  If Christine noticed anything she was very gracious and said nothing.  Who knew being a Kelowna realtor could be so stressful! 

In the last 24 hours Kelowna real estate has seen 124 listings come onto the market, 48 price reductions and 33 sales.  After a pretty bumpy April where we saw sales down an alarming 34% over April 2010, the warmer weather is sure to bring a more active real estate market for both buyers and sellers!
