Hi! You’re here! Yeah! 😃 

You may be new(er) here so keep reading this “get-to-know me” post because you want to find out more. No #fomo for you. 😉 

When you are following me, you know that I love people, parties and planning! You might also know that I am an Event Planner, who loves helping you plan and prepare for your social gatherings, so you can enjoy stress-free events, #celebratethespecialmoments & #beaguestatyourownparties 🥳 🎉 🤩 

Do you know? Some other jobs I have had/roles I have held in previous years were…

raspberry-picker, (earned $5.00 my first time, waaaay back in the day; 😆 when I was a kid, 5 bucks was a LOT of money 💴 ) babysitter, storybook teller, lemonade stand “entrepreneur” 😊 🍋 …started the first 4 between the ages of 8 & 11, elementary classroom helper, lunch program helper, volunteer baker & crafts maker for kids programs, Sunday school helper, teacher and supervisor, Christmas program planner, PAC volunteer, MOPS volunteer, cleaning lady, cannery worker, (that 🐠 smell 😷) retail clerk, canvasser, bank teller (just dated myself here… 😜 aka Customer Service Rep), loan accounting officer, credit report officer, receptionist, council recording secretary, switchboard operator, claims support assistant, administrative assistant, cook, baker, thrift shop volunteer, volunteer event planner for women’s annual retreats and community church foyer greeter. In case you’re wondering, I had a “mostly” pleasant trip down memory lane while writing this. 😉 

All of these various positions have helped make me who I am and taught me SO much about family, friends, people, myself, to love well, be forgiving, be kind, you reap what you sow, my weaknesses and strengths, the importance of a strong work ethic, the importance of saving money and spending it wisely, (I stumbled a few times, I admit & not only with money, in all areas) 😞 do your work well, wholeheartedly and with a smile, the customer is always right, there’s no free lunch, life is not fair, life is short, love is an action, not a feeling, “to thine own self, be true” - Shakespeare, and there are lessons to be learned, always. 🙏 

**The most important, most challenging and most rewarding roles above all, personally, are being a wife, a mother and a grandmother!! ❤️ 😊 

So you know some things about me that I betcha didn’t know! Can you guess which were my favourite ones? 🙋🏻‍♀️ 

Now, it’s your turn…share your comments below about some of your previous jobs and experiences. Name some of your faves too! ⬇️ 👇 

You and I will get to know each other. 😊 🙌 

Have a fabulous week ahead whatever your roles are! 😊
