December Reflection

Personal Note

Dearest Friends and Clients,

What a year! As I walk the Ringling Bridge this gorgeous morning, I can’t help but look back on 2020 and focus on positive thoughts. We all know the challenges that the world and our lives have faced which will continue into 2021 and beyond. With that in mind, I am sharing my top personal positive notes for the year (not in order of importance):

• I became a Grandma to Ruby (ok this was truly #1)
• My son Daniel got married to Cristina and moved to Tampa
• My daughter Nicole spent 6 months in Sarasota working from home
• I achieved a personal best volume of real estate sales of over $42 million
• I walked an average of 7.1 miles a day
• My business was multi-generational and full of repeat clients and referrals
• My business Team soared to new heights thanks to my incredible Executive Assistant Lela and Marketing Specialist Kelly, Webmaster Brandon and Construction Coordinator Nick
• Thanks to the encouragement of my partner John, I took up golf
• My Book Club brought books to my reading list that I never would have ventured to read
• My Friends and Family continued to be there for me each and every day
• I looked back to cherish so many great memories
• I looked forward with hope for many more years of health, happiness, fulfillment and new experiences

Wishing you all a happy and healthy holiday and 2021.
