In the winter of my years I own and operate a mystery shopping company built on a strong foundation of real estate development,sales,leasing,renovation and training.
I developed and operated three businesses.One was an apartment locating business,one was a room-mate business
and one was a community theatre.We now give sales/leasing workshops where we use the techniques of role playing.My husband also gives fair housing seminars.
I met and married my partner in work and in domestic life in six days.Forty nine years later,four children,six grandchildren and many cats and dogs have been nourished and loved by us.Our family is close-knit busy and productive. We live close to two of our adult children and the other two are in Florida and New York.We have always strived to be examples and mentors to them,to be the best you can be and bring others along with you.
My leisure time is filled with writing poetry,magazine articles, reading plays,child sitting,acting and travel.
I am a good people watcher and once I meet you and talk with you I rarely forget you.I trust my intuition and adore people who are creative,good souls and trustworthy.
I am immensely proud of all my children who are involved in all sorts of creative endeavors.They all seem to live happy and productive lives with good spiritual vibes and emotional strength.We are blessed.
