quotes are in...

Okay so not all of them are in, my local cardealership numbers are in and they rated them a 1.0 which is insane. The other quote with my previous employer was less than crazy it matched and exceeded their current rate--hahaha! So I spoke with my boss and he was sure we weren't gonna move them until next year.

I also got a quote for our agency but it was expensive to say the least. I'm waiting for Aetna, I'm hoping it will come first thing in the morning. I can only hope for the sake of those in office who need good coverage that we can do something for our group that will make my bosses happy and at the same time help those who really need it. Fingers crossed, again.

I got my first renewal for my first dental case, it went up a total of less than 2 bucks. You sure don't mind showing that to a client.

I've got a painter, no info yet.
I've got a tileman, no info yet.
I've got a construction company, no return contact yet.

The dentist, no word yet I've given my boss the quotes to present.
The property management deal, they need to sign off on the higher rate and it will be done.
My nieces policies are filled out and in but one of them I had to change the effective date. So I'll submit her in a couple of weeks. The other? No word yet.
My son's policy is in place.

I really want to do a fax blast soon to the remainder of the contacts I have. I have gotten some buzz just no business.
I'll make a marketing flyer for all the different businesses we do and try to blast or mail on them. I really do think we should plow the land we have, no with coldcalls but with info.

I'm really looking forward to doing home, auto, rental and motorcycles when I get back. I'd really like to get a cellphone that my sister can man that is pure quotes in spanish. I can have her take down the info and set up appointments for me. If I can get enough of them I can write a lot of policies. I can hit my neighborhood and really post my number and get the policies from marketing myself as local in their neighborhood. Real doorhangers would be perfect. I can get my kids to really do marketing after school and on the weekends.

Now if I can only drop this baby...

In continuing life drama, I cancelled a meeting with a mediatator because I'm unsure if I will be available to sit and come up with a parenting plan. Especially when I'm not sure if and when I'm going to give birth. A reasonable excuse?
So, I should I throw caution to the wind and plan on being there just to make my ex happy?
But luckily I found a great parenting plan template from the state of Alaska that allows you in a word doc to pick and choose options for free. We'll see how it goes.
My ex was as compassionate as ever screaming at me when I informed him of the change after all he'd been waiting a whole two months! So screaming at the pregnant lady is gonna help right? If he can't be compassionate enough to give me a break when I'm pregnant does anyone really think that sitting infront of a meditator is gonna help? He already said that he didn't want mediatation that he wanted 50% custody. So it's all in vain.
I've tried and will continue to try to be reasonable but I'm tired of getting yelled at for trying to keep open the lines of communication. He calls me names and then he thinks it's just fine to ask me for money.
All I want is for him to have reasonable visitation with his sons and leave me alone. After that who really cares? To him it's all about winning and losing and the actual parenting is more about feeding him pizza and going to see monster trucks. He doesn't see the grind of it.
