Wowza, it is way past my bedtime, but it was all worth it! An early day today, three appointments before 11 A.M. In between, I was in the office for a few minutes, last appointment ended just before 2, and then back to the office. Ugh...the owner's association was painting the doors of the building, and we have four doors in the office, and the paint was not a low VOC (volatile organic compound) paint. It was allegedly 'quick-drying' paint, and I give them the fact that it actually was, but it was difficult to concentrate when you were concerned that there was a better than 50/50 chance that, because of the paint fumes, you may never be able to conceive...well, oh forget it. I was especially honored to have been invited to the Williamson County Association of REALTORS® Major Investor event, it was great to see all my colleagues from Williamson County, as well as representatives from TREPAC Leadership, NAR and Texas REALTORS®. Thanks very much for the invitation Bryan!Oh, and today was tax day, just in case you needed a buzz-kill...
Weald -- Noun. 1. a heavily wooded area. forest. 2. a wild or uncultivated usually upland region. A fog descended upon the weald, giving the hikers concern that they might not be able to find their way back to the camp.
Did You Know? If weald were a tree, it would have many annual rings. It has been in use as a general word for "forest" since the days of Old English, and it has also long been used, in its capitalized form, as a geographic name for a once heavily forested region of Southeastern England. Weald is also often capitalized today when used to refer to wooded area like the Weald of Kent and the Weald of Sussex in England. In time, the word branched out to designate any wild and uncultivated upland regions. A related word is wold, meaning "an upland plain or stretch of rolling land."
