Good Morning …… I’m backkkkkk!

“Envision-Designs can help bring balance, flow and purpose to an area creatively with client’s furnishings, accessories in symphony with room rearrangement.” ~

I have had some time to do some serious thinking during my illness in the last couple of months – I have made a decision to go back to what I know and incorporate what I have learned! Let’s start off by saying, I am a damn good organizer and cleaner – it is what I have done with pride and passion for the last 30 years. I was certified as a Home Stager last summer, and though I have enjoyed helping people showcase their homes for resale, what I really did that made a huge difference is Clean & Organize the space. I have decided to take my business in a new direction – I want to offer the Organizing and Cleaning first and then incorporate the Home Staging if the need is there. When you visit my website or my other social media sites, you will notice that I want to help people get their space Organized & Cleaned through a process that I have used for the last 20 years and have had success with numerous clients.

It’s a funny thing – this thing called life – Through this illness I have started to live the life I am suppose to live. I have a lot of work ahead of me to get my health back, but I have enough fight in me to get it done! I have a feeling I will have a better life then what I could have ever imagined for myself. Sometimes it’s good to seat in the backseat – you get to enjoy the ride!

“Our firm decision is to work from this focused center: One man died for everyone. That puts everyone in the same boat. He included everyone in his death so that everyone could also be included in his life, a resurrection life, a far better life than people ever lived on their own – Because of this decision we don’t evaluate people by what they have or how they look.” ~The Message
