How Cool Is That or...How Active Rain Can Really Work - 05/26/08 09:01 PM
I joined Active Rain for two basic reasons: 1) Networking 2) Learning
I have only been here since March. In the time I have been here I have done more than learn. I have been submerged in information relating to just about every aspect of real estate that exists. And along … (9 comments)

100th Anniversary of Mother's Day - 05/10/08 11:08 PM
I've probably been living under a rock or something. Until today I didn't realize this Mother's Day was the 100th Anniversary of the first Mother's Day. A celebration dedicated to one mom at a small church in West Virginia in 1908 is now recognized globally.
See the Associated Press Article Mother's Day 100th … (3 comments)

The Pressure is on... What will I say now? - 05/10/08 04:41 PM
I innocently made a post the other day about a conversation I had with a friend who also happens to be a Realtor. You Can't have It Both Ways
If I had known then that somehow the post would get that elusive gold star status I might have been more prepared.

You can't have it both ways - 05/09/08 02:36 PM
I almost threw the phone out my car window...
I placed a call the other day. It was a social call to another agent. We are friends and I hadn't talked to her in a while. So we're chatting it up and as always our conversation turned to business.
Now this agent … (61 comments)

Sure I'll help you out... and expect nothing in return - 05/07/08 04:11 PM
I do many things as a professional real estate agent for which I am never compensated. And you know what, I am not complaining.
I love talking real estate. (Actually, I love talking and real estate just happens to a subject everybody is interested in right now.)
That being said, I can't count … (0 comments)

So I was posting this picture... - 05/06/08 10:00 PM
It isn't really noticeable in my Historic Downtown Eustis Post but as I was posting this picture my laptop almost met its demise.
It would seem Peddler's Wagon was under attack.
Luckily I did not notice this lovely creature while I was taking the photo or I would have regretted not getting that … (1 comments)

The building which housed the hospital and formerly the Waterman Hotel was demolished. The Lake Eustis Foundation was established to develop the property.
The vision the foundation … (1 comments)

No Two Dcuks are Exactly the Same - 05/06/08 07:53 PM
How many of you read that title and muttered something negative about my proofreading? (It's okay, I would have done the same thing.)
Without further ado, I would like to introduce you to DCUKS.

Lake County, Florida...In Bloom - 05/06/08 07:34 PM
I fell in love with the magnolia several years ago. I don't remember the title of the book I was reading but it was set in New Orleans. The author described the fragrance to such a degree I could actually smell the blossoms in the pages of that book.
From that time … (1 comments)

Singing and Dancing in the Rain, With Some Difficulty - 05/01/08 10:57 AM
I have to say I am having a great time with Active Rain. I took some time off for a few days so I could organize myself. I also slipped a short girl's weekend to St. Augustine in to refresh my batteries. (Sorry, no pictures this time. To coin the phrase, … (8 comments)
