Thanks for the support, girlfriends. Yes, Dotsie, that's a good way of putting it: I am re-inventing myself yet again. Kate, if your BF is at Remax, then I hope he can help you get started. Renee, a friend of mine in real estate told me that there are a LOT of former social workers in RE because as we know social work pays so little. A person can do only so much with the heart and soul. In this world, with people living longer, we need a way to fund our old age. So it's back to work while my body is still able.
