I have to say, it was an “off night” for me, as far as my networking skills go, Wednesday night at the New England Home Magazine event in Harwich. This event was to give the companies who advertised in their special Cape and Islands issue, a chance to meet each other. I was there as Marc’s guest, since Bordet Interiors has a nice ad in this issue. It was a hard room to work. Although a beautiful setting with ocean views, the room was too big for the rather small sized gathering and people were a bit cliquish, not all that approachable. I did manage to make a few contacts and greet some new faces, but I was just not “on” that evening for networking. Marc and I left around 8 p.m. and stopped to visit a friend of mine in Centerville on our way home. I ran into some major construction at midnight on the highway after I picked up my car at Marc’s house and did not get home until almost 1 a.m.! Gee, it’s bad enough I find myself stuck in traffic most days with my work commutes, but to be stuck in traffic at midnight is just sad. I got up at my usual 6 a.m. today and was off to work on that ceiling with Denise’s help. We got a late start because we both had commitments earlier in the morning, so we were not able to finish today. We will return tomorrow to complete and I will post some pics of the ceiling that is killing me!
