Caffeine Drip, Please May 7, 2008

We still don’t have approval from the seller’s bank.  I hate the waiting.  I Hate the Waiting!  In the meantime, we’re moving ahead as if its ours, working on getting bids for improvement work, etc. 

The amount of work, phone calls, paperwork, etc. is overwhelming and the majority of it falls on me.  Master doesn’t have a job that allows for phone calls, call backs, etc., I do and as Master’s slave and assistant that’s my job.  It’s a lot to juggle I don’t mind saying.  There’s just so much to do and sometimes when I hit a brick wall, I don’t know where to go next or need to wait for Master’s call/direction losing time and momentum.  Oy, why are all the deadlines so tight on real estate deals, except for the foreclosing bank’s approval? They have the gold so they make the rules, I suppose.  In the end, I have great faith that everything will or won’t happen as its supposed too, but at the same time my patience is wearing thin with the seller’s bank.

All this juggling of extra duties into an already full daily schedule, got me thinking about laziness and slavery.  I’ve come to the conclusion that there’s no room for laziness in slavery or at least in the type of service slavery my Master requires.  My job is to do what Master requires without worrying about being tired or stressed or overwhelmed.  I am to keep Master informed at all times and He’ll remove things if He sees its getting to be too much, but in the meantime its not for me to complain or whine or even yawn.  I just need to suck it up and somehow hook myself up to a caffeine drip until the time for rest arrives.

I don’t mind hard work and by nature I’m not lazy, but the lifestyle isn’t the fantasy of being caged with nothing to do but wait to be used for Master’s pleasure and locked away again.  Slavery is work and Master as boss is way more demanding than the boss who signs my paycheck.  It comes down to focus, as most everything does for me.  I have to keep focused on my duties as Master’s property and our goals whether its M/s goals or property ownership goals.
