Being Entrepreneurs

 I realized while writing my autobiography I missed writing about "Being Entrepreneurs Story". 

Just after we were married in 2005 Randal and I were enthusiastic to learn to become real Entrepreneurs!! 

I was already with the Total Wellness Home of Nikken Global Community and had invested in a Wellness Home.  

While Randal owned and operated Studio-eh Picture Framing and Design.

We sat down one morning to see what else we could do to add to our income.  As we had a Wellness Home using the Nikken Products and an extra bedroom with a bathroom that was not being used we looked into making our home into a Bed and Breakfast Spa  



We added to this "Lorraine's Kitchen". Since during the long winter months we had nothing else to do! I made apples strudel and knishes and sold them to my friends. I had learned to make them during my volunteer days with Regina Hadassah-WIZO. 

From "Lorraine's Kitchen" a how-to video. Making Apple Strudel when the weather out side is -30 C.



I also sold Paulette Millis' Cook Book "Eat Away Illness". In 2008 we teamed up and put on a Demonstration using her recipes. 



Meanwhile, Randal was busy producing a News letter for Regina Beach and Buena Vista and Area. 



From there we created a new image and named it "Under One Roof"


In 2010 one -30C day in December I looked out the window and came to the conclusion that living in Saskatchewan and waiting for  our businesses to pick up was not exciting. Plans were set into motion to down-size and sale the house. Before we knew it we were at a RV sale  and bought an Open Range then a Dodge Ram.

We took our Wellness Home with us and are now Full-time RVer.
