Super 8 MeMe! Jeepers!

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Fran Rokicki Realty, LLC

Thanks to Eleanor Thorne from Cary, North Carolina, for asking me to share more about me:)  She suggested I could use it to find some good recruits for my office.  I love that idea:)  We are growing this year!  Amazingly, I have been to Cary, North Carolina. I have a cousin who lived there a few years ago, that we visited while looking at colleges for my Daughters.  Lovely town, with scenery much like Connecticut.

Here we go with the latest super 8 questions!

1) Who is your favorite musical artist?  That would be Elvis. His voice was so beautiful.

2) Who is your favorite artist? My Son, Daren.  He is now thirty years old:)  He would draw trucks when he was little with every last detail.  He would draw houses (we used to build them) the same way, with every attention to detail, including the outdoor landscape.  It was hard to believe a child drew them.  Now, he owns a landscape design/construction business in South Windsor, Ct, Birch Mountain Earthworks,LLC.  This year he added, equipment rental, Arnold's Rentals, LLC.  If you have a few minutes, take a look at his websites, www.BirchMountainEarthworks.com  and www.ArnoldsRentals.com   He is amazing!

3) Who is your favorite blogger?  My favorite is more than one.  I am grateful to those who helped me with my technical issues and to those who have become part of my sphere. The tips about online marketing are super.  I like to read Brian Buffini's Blog because he always seems to give out just what I need on that day:) 

4) If you could meet anyone (alive or dead) who would it be and what is the most interesting thing about them?  I would like to meet Oprah.  I like how she makes her audience and viewers feel like she is  your neighbor, right next door.  She really cares about people.

5) What did you want to be when you grew up?  A teacher.  Though my path went a different way, I was a telephone operator, a waitress through college, sold appliance warrantees, a receptionist for the Ct Dept of Education, Ct State Attorney aide, an engineering aid at P&WA, where I met my husband, then a Mom, a builder and then, a Realtor.  I have taught CCD class, cooking classes (junior high)  and now Mentor my agents.  The Mom job is still the best!

6) What is the most interesting piece of trivia that you know?  When you smile, your face uses less muscles than when you frown:)

7) If you could live in any point of history, when would it be and why?  I am happy to be right where I am:)

8) What is the most interesting job you have held?  The one I have now.  I meet different people from all over the world.  I am teaching and mentoring my agents.  Our business is changing more everyday, which I believe, makes it more challenging and interesting.

Okay, my turn....here are my next super 8 MeMe's:

       Nancy Pav

       Al Donohue

      Dennis Volz

Frances the great thing about the MEME blogs is that you always learn a little more about someone from them.  Thank you for sharing.

I will like to meet Oprah too. Oprah does make people feel like her neighbors and friends. If giving out free gifts worth thousands of dollars doesn't show that she makes people feel like her neighbors and friends then I don't know what else will. Great post.
