| Introduction | My husband Robert and I live in the country outside of Greenwood, MO (close to Lees Summit) and have just totally restored our 100 year old home. When we retire, we might transform our 10 acres into some type of hobby farm. Robert is a mortgage broker where business as you can imagine is slowing down, and I am still doing software development. I’m actually working with my son, Jon, who surpasses me in intelligence and creativity by a long shot. He has a U.S. and European patent pending in the works for an architectural framework he has developed for building distributed enterprise software applications. My daughter Heather is in software sales for IBM, and has 3 children, ages 13, 9, and 2. Jon has 2 sons, ages 9 and 10, and Robert has a daughter and a 14 year old granddaughter. We enjoy friends and family, reading, hiking, and gardening. Robert and I love to travel, but this year has been all about working. We are planning for a trip to Ireland in the next year or two, and I want to visit my sister-in-law in St.Thomas within a year or so. |
