Vicki222's profile

I am Vicki from a small town in Texas.

I am Manager of Dementia in Real Time.  Check out the site!  My mother in law is suffering from dementia and we try to see the light side of a dark disease.  As they say, you have to laugh to keep from crying!

My husband and I are keeping a journal of real life experiences and would love to publish it in a book to help others deal with the "Real Time" roller coaster ride of dementia so they are not so surprised when things happen and can react with care and love instead of the darker feelings we and others have dealt with.  I know there are other excellent books out there which have been great help, but this one would not be the technical side but the heart side. 

I am trying to retire but my daughter became President of our company so do we ever get to retire? (ha) 

I was the IIAT ACSR of the year for the state of Texas as well as serving and chairing on Agent committees for IIAT and Allstate. 

I was Business Woman of the Year for the NRC.  

I have been happily married for 39 years and am married to the "perfect" man :>

We have two children and three grandchildren.  My husband and I alternate between working and keeping our youngest grandchild.  

I live a wonderfully full life and chat when I can. 

My passion is writing.

I coauthored with S. Swindell, Memories in Blue and White, History of Celeste, Texas Schools, Celeste Texas, 1 of 37 books considered by the Texas Historical Commission for the T. R. Fehrenback Book Award.

  have written articles for Christian Reader Magazine and insurance trade journals.  I write a newspaper column for The Celeste Tribune, and have written for the Celeste Star, The Leonard Graphic, The Wolfe City Mirror, and The Greenville Herald Banner.
