Sometimes we just need to thank someone in public. Pamela St Peter is that person for me

Sometimes we just need to thank someone in public. Pamela St Peter is that person for me.

 

Back in Pamela St PeterDecember, I wrote a post about my New Years Resolution. Pamela commented and encouraged me to do the 31 Day Challenge. She followed along and continued to give me amazing support. Had it not been for her, I wouldn't have asked for points, wouldn't have created a new VIBRANT group, 31 Days of January, My New Years Resolution and wouldn't have gotten this far in the Challenge.

I met Pam, and her husband Lee, the first time in Chicago at a Prudential Event. It was a brief meeting but we exchanged business cards and both remarked that we had used the same marketing company to design them. Later, we found each other again on Active Rain. At first just the comment, and the "Hi, I remember meeting you and your husband in Chicago" and finally I went to BarCamp in Raleigh where we really re-connected.

 

Since then we have seen each other in Atlanta at RETech South and have spoken on the phone many times. She's kind, warm and sincere. If you don't read her blog, you should. Right now she's writing a series on Tips for Rainers. Now how cool is that.

 

31 Day Challenge

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now for the rest of you, and there are many of you, this doesn't mean that you haven't been supportive and helpful or that I care any less about you.

 

 

 

But this January challenge has truly been a success. The group we started has been the most active group on Active Rain for 2 weeks now. It's at the top of the list! It's amazing.

If you have someone moving to the Raleigh, NC area, do them a big favor and send them to Pam. She'll take care of them. I assure you.

I always like finding new blogs to read so thanks for the recommendation.  I will head right on over there. AND, my dream is someday to move someplace further down the east coast where it isn't quite as cold & snowy as it is here.....NC, in my mind at least, was an ideal place!  Who knows if it will ever happen but you never know!

Lenn - That's great, I know she'll appreciate it. Yes, there are about 8 of us from the southeast that try to go to the same tech conferences. It's like a class reunion but we've only known each other for a few years. But what has made us so close is that we talk the same language, that our other friends don't understand! LOL

Christine - North Carolina is beautiful. If I had to live somewhere besides Tennessee, that's where I'd go.

Connie, you are the sweetest lady!!  I am so touched that you wrote this about me...  Hope you got my babbling message last night...  I saw this as it hit my google alert while I was making dinner. I thought what is this?? I have to admit you brought tears to my eyes as I read your kind words...  But you know what?  You are the one that encouraged ME.  I would have never taken the challenge if it hadn't been for you having the guts to start it!  Thank you from the bottom of my heart...

Connie, Looking forward to getting to know Pam but I have to say: "Sometimes we just have to thank someone in public".

You have been great. Great starting the 31 day challenge but also you have really been there watching over and encouraging me. You have been the wind under my wings or the kick in my butt, anyway you want to call it. I appreciate it and feel like there are people I'm getting to know a little bit around here..

Thank you.

You've got to love those Google Alerts.  Sometime I get nervous when I see my name pop up, but it always brings a smile when I see something like Pam did.

Jeanne - I know she'll appreciate it!

Deborah - That is incredibly sweet of you! If you could see me, you'd see that I'm blushing. I have had so many people at AR help me along the way, it's time for me to really start giving back. I've gotten as much out of this challenge as all of you!

Steve - I have Google Alerts set up but I need to go back and check them. I don't think they're working!

Connie - I'm so glad Pam encouraged you to get the 31 Days of January group set up.  I participated and it was challenging for sure, but I got to know a bunch of rainers so much better because of the group!  I will go check out Pam's blog right now - - it sounds terrific.  Thank You, Connie!
