Day 243:
Appointment today – back to the office to do some work – then met with my clients in New Fairfield to view many lovely homes – a few on Ball Pond and Candlewood Lake – and what a wonderful day it was to view homes with water views!
My evening appointment was canceled, so it was back home for a wonderful dinner!

Day 238:
Lot’s of work to do again today and I’m happy to report that the rain and clouds are gone and it is an absolute gorgeous day!! Spring isn’t until Saturday, although it has arrived today – Yeah!
Here is a pic of a beautiful – and thawed – Ball Pond…
As I made my way to the office, I realized quickly that I was over dressed. This happens every Spring - I’m afraid of being cold, so I still wear turtle necks and coats and sweat my buns off!
After going to the office, I stopped at A&P in Brewster – yes, FOOD SHOPPING AGAIN!
When I arrived home, my mom and David had made a wonderful dinner – our very 1st barbecue of the season – and – we even ate outside…

Day 229:
Sunday! Jonathan went to the Danbury Fair Mall yesterday with friends and finally got a much needed hair cut. He slept over one of his friend’s house and came home this morning. I snapped the pic of him while gushing over his new hair doo…
Then, back to work – an Open House on one of my listings ~ 2A Hudson Drive – New Fairfield CT ~ **CLICK to VIEW** . My sellers have renovated the 2nd floor and it looks fantastic!

Day 76:
I can’t believe I have to go back to Home Depot… again… since the moulding that Joe purchased yesterday was, well – I’ll be nice… or maybe I won’t – it was just darn ugly!!!
Stopped by my clients home first to have him sign a price reduction – 2A Hudson Drive ~ New Fairfield, CT
Water View of Ball Pond
Then off to the office ~ Century 21 VJF Realty ~ Brewster, NY…
Home to pick up Jonathan and drop him off for soccer practice…
All while talking, texting and e-mailing clients – I love my phone, I love my phone, I love my phone… To be able to assist all of my clients from anywhere and everywhere is awesome! How did we ever manage without cell phones?
Oh, I remember when I was pregnant with Amanda – who is now 17. Two weeks before my due date, my husband was at a soccer game about an hour away – and of course, I go into labor and Joe has no cell phone! In the end, it all work out – my sister, Lisa, who was also expecting ~ her son Derek ~ came and stayed with Melissa – who was 3 1/2 – and David – who was 1 1/2. My brother-in-law, Richie, drove me to the hospital – where all the nurses mistook him for my husband and kept wanting to examine me with him in the room! Miraculously, my contractions seemed to slow down - I think Amanda decided to wait for her daddy before making her dramatic entrance – so, I was told to go take a walk around the hospital halls. Poor Richie came with me – wobble, wobble – down the hall I went – and to my surprise, when I reached the end of one of the hallways where the elevators were – the doors opened and there was my Joe – soak and wet due to a terrible rain storm during the game – but he was there and Amanda was born – healthy, happy and beautiful!

Day 24:
After a good night sleep – all 5 1/2 hours! I started the day with calls from agents and clients – fed the critters, took care of some house cleaning and started some work on the computer until – no internet connection! Oh, no – no – no… that is not good. My lap top, cell phone and camera are my life, my life as a Realtor. So, after attempting to repair the service myself, and saying a few nice-so-nice words, I called Charter Cable and within minutes, service was on and I got back to work… for only 20 minutes!
David had to be at Putnam Hospital for post-op work for his surgery on Monday.
Putnam Hospital – Ambulatory Entrance
While we were there, we had a few laughs while filling our necessary paperwork – History of Diabetes? NO On Daily Medication? NO Are You Currently Pregnant? HUGH?? Well, heck NO!
David reading the Patient Information Packet
Dropped David off at home, picked up my client to view 2 homes in New Milford and Danbury. 2nd appointment was canceled - I was doing another agent a favor.
Was very happy to see my new listing in New Fairfield come on the market. While I was out with the homeowner searching for a new home, her listing was e-mailed to me, which I viewed on my phone.
Just move-in!

After paying and renting a few movies from RedBox, I came out and it was pouring! By the time I made it to the car and packed all the bags into the trunk – I was soaked!!

Ball Pond – New Fairfield, Connecticut
Ball Pond in New Fairfield, CT is just minutes from my house – so, I have the pleasure of passing it a few times a day. Spring time is my favorite since the grass, trees and flowers surrounding the pond have blossomed, and life is back with the ducks, geese and people in canoes and fishing.
Just one of the pleasures of living in New Fairfield, CT!
WON’T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR?
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.
