This’ll be short, because I’d rather be writing about small businesses and their owners.
I’m curious in just about everything, so I’m never at a loss for questions. That’s a good thing when getting to know people. Even better, after I ask a question, I always give the other person plenty of time to answer—and then I LISTEN.
Considered a Baby Boomer, I’m very grateful for what I’ve been given at this stage of my life: gratitude, contentment and a wonderful husband.
Everything I’ve done up ’til now has made me a better person and a better writer. You can best get to know me by reading what I write.
