Agent Spotlight & Agent Spotlight Updates

  • Agent Spotlights & Interviews were all edited in 2021. Every year since then, I update some of them. I also regularly add information regarding changes in their agency as I find it. Agents spotlights and interviews been updated through most of the letter "R" as of 5/12/2026 and many have been reviewed by the agents. Look for more information as I find the time to update more agent spotlights.

Sip Sip Hooray Giveaway Hop


Happy Thursday Everyone! Today I'm excited to participate in the Sip Sip Hooray Giveaway Hop hosted by MamatheFox  and MomDoesReviews. Are you having a good summer? Yesterday and today are fantastic days for me. It was my 70th birthday yesterday, and I'm finally getting my social security. I'm so excited! I honestly don't feel 70 at all. I think being an older mom kept me younger. 

And I had a really fun dinner with my daughter and son-in-law to celebrate. Today, my daughter and I are having our annual Art Fair outing in Ann Arbor. I have other fun things to look forward to, too. I hope you're having a good summer.  

Book of Your Choice or Amazon Gift Card

I am offering a book of your choice that is $20 or less on Amazon. I’m looking forward to seeing what books everyone is looking forward to reading.  

If you don’t have a book you want, you can win a $10 Amazon Gift Card.

Be sure to include your email address. If I do not have your email (I can no longer get it from your Google Profile), you must leave it in the comments to enter the contest.
