Now that I am retired???

March 4, 2009

People often as what we are doing now that we no longer have a store front.

It has taken me a while to really settle in to not working 40-60 hours a week but I am finally making it work.

One of the things that has been great fun is teaching watercolor and silk painting classes at Centralia College. You can find the Spring schedule here. ( you will have to scroll down). I also host a Tuesday morning “painting ladies” group at my home for busy women committed to working on art at least once a week.

Reping  Math-U-See curriculum  continues to be the best job in the whole world. I am able to work out of my home and since Kelly and I share this territory we are able to be pretty flexible.  We are  getting ready to head into conference season. It is hard work but it is so much fun once we get there and set up.  Math-U- See has a new look coming out soon. Get ready to be amazed.. it is so beautiful!

Another project I have worked on this school year is to develop a staffroom service route for schools. I leave a couple baskets at the local schools once a month. The teachers shop from the basket when I leave the display in thier staff room for the week. Almost 20 schools have been gracious thus far to allow this service .

So roll that all together with family and friends and I have a full time life and its finally feeling  good and normal!

A Great day at the beach!

May 16, 2008

As much as I love my job as a sales rep, I know that next month is going to be a whirl wind with 3 conferences in a row. So, when the weather forecast called for the first heat wave at the beach Jeni and I had to pack up the puppies and go. The only thing that would have made it better would have been to have my other grandpuppy Kalle there! We even got sun burns!!
