About Jenny Wren
I am a recently retired nurse. After 35 years working in the medical profession I feel ready for a change. I still enjoy nursing but was getting tired of being ‘on-call’ for long periods. I live in a small village and the hospital in a nearby town is small. As a result of the hospital size, there were few staff members to share the call with. With only 1 or 2 others to help and needing to have 2 nurses on-call at a time you can imagine how much call was involved. This meant I was seldom able to go anywhere and if I did it had to be planned well in advance. It was not so bad when my children all lived at home and your life is not your own anyways but now that I have more time I wanted more freedom as well. Thus retirement.
I am used to being busy. I could fill my time with my 4 grandchildren, my home and my garden but I think I still can expand my horizons. I have always thought it would be great to be an author, though my writing skills will need lots of work. The idea of being my own boss, using my time as I wish appeals to me.
I was introduced to the world of trading a dozen years ago. I tried several aspects without too much success. Looking back, I realize I jumped in without much knowledge and made many beginner mistakes. I got discouraged and became too emotional in my trading, making a bad situation worse. I was determined to succeed and began to try one thing after another. Another big mistake. You need to find something that appeals to you and then focus on that one thing. Finally I began to trade profitably ( thanks to the mentoring of Rob Booker). I now really enjoy trading and have confidence in my ability to consistently make profits. I would like to help you make some profit with your hard earned money as well.
I enjoy writing as well, Jenny, and am working on both fiction and non-fiction as well. It’s a lot of work but it is fun. I’m aiming to complete my first novel by the end of this year, but I’ve still got a long way to go.
All the best,
Ray
Good luck with the writing. Let me know when you have finished your novel. I love to read!

Hi Jenny, nice site and nice writing style. It is very personal and honest. Very readable. Fair to say that as we approach our over 50’s age we tend to think of health and wealth a lot more. Certainly I do.
I take it that is a picture of your lovely garden, if so you do have a real talent and should share some of that as well.
Congrats on a great site.
Sorry to say this is not a picture of my own garden though I would love it. I am a garden enthusiast and lose track of time whenever I go ‘out’ to the garden.

Hi Jenny,
Have enjoyed your easy-going writing style, but especially wanted to comment on the stunning garden in your photos – is this your garden? Would love to hear more about it!
Thank you for stopping by. Unfortunately, that is not my own garden but some graphics done for me. I would love to have a garden like that though. I do love to spend time in the garden, both with flowers and vegetables. Nothing tastes as good as home grown or home made in my humble opinion. Stopped by your blog as well. Good job or should I say great job! Will leave a comment shortly.
