My Life as a Realtor – Day 176

My Life as a Realtor ~

Day 176:

It’s Wednesday – Court day for my oldest – Melissa – in Bridgeport, CT…

Melissa had a car accident during a nor’easter – going down a hill, she skidded and her tire came off – !!! – and ended up under her car. No damage to anything – or anyone Thank God. She was very shaken up – and to add to her nerves, a police officer gave her a ticket! He said no matter how slow she was going – it wasn’t slow enough.

We left home at 7:45 for 9am court time - we waited on a very long line until it was time to see a court rep. We chatted with another mother and daughter and found out that her daughter had been cut off and ended up hitting a guard rail. A good samaritan called the police – an officer arrived and also gave her a ticket!! What the heck! When it was finally Melissa’s turn to be seen, she was told to come back in a months time with proof that she had insurance on the date of the accident! That was also the reason the mother and daughter were there, she too had been told to came back to show proof of insurance – very frustrating!

We took our time driving home – I made a few phone calls – we stopped at Dunkin Donuts – I had Melissa text a few people since I was driving – and then we had lunch. Afterwards, I met clients at a home in New Fairfield, CT . Here I am on my way to the home…

About 10 minutes after arriving home, the Sears repair man arrived to fix my washer – Yeah! It took him about 10 minutes – unbelievable!

GETTING TO KNOW ME

As a full time REALTOR in Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess counties in NEW YORK – and Fairfield and parts of Litchfield counties in CONNECTICUT , I am very pleased to have the opportunity to share my passions on REAL ESTATE, FAMILY, PETS, anything and everything in and around a HOME – including COOKING, MOVIES, MUSIC and more!

I have been married for 25+ years to my wonderful husband Joe. We have 5 children – Melissa, David, Amanda, Sara and Jonathan. After waiting anxiously – for almost 17 years, being home with my kids for 10 and a Nursery school teacher for 7 years – I FINALLY became a Licensed Realtor – first in Connecticut - where my family and I live – and then in New York – where my office, Century 21 V.J.F. Realty is located.

I was born and raised in Mt. Vernon, New York. My parents, who came to the US from Portugal, were extremely hard working – with even stronger ethics on being good to everyone – everywhere – period! “Faz bem, nao olhes a quem.” This has been instilled in me all my life, which has made me the mother, wife, daughter, sister, friend and the REALTOR I am today. Thank You Ma and Papa.
