I am a working Mom. Some days I don't know what is harder; staying at home with two kids or managing a million dollar property. I am a Property Manager. If you are not sure what that entails, if you have ever seen Tower Heist with Ben Stiller that's what I do. ( My company actually manages the building in the movie)
Years from now, I will probably laugh thinking about my day...Hell, I even laugh now thinking about my day sometimes.So here goes...
