I am a retired 44-year veteran of the Real Estate Assessment field. As with real estate assessing and how it applies to real estate taxes, one can make many acquaintances, but not many real friends. It was a great career choice.
It has been nearly 10 years since I reclaimed my home and my real passions within my home. I enjoy it more each day and tip my hat to those who I left behind.
Each day I try to stretch myself with the use of my computer as it relates to this site and using it to print out labels for quilts for trying to incorporate photos into my sewing. Life is so full and I know that I have room for more.
2015 looks to be the best year yet for the wonderful yellow blooms on the Prickly Pear Cactuses. Many more buds to come, but unfortunately the staying power of each bloom is short. As I had posted at an earlier date, this beats barbwire as a protector under windows.
