Last Week's Favorites: May 20th - 27th

It was a quiet week in Lake Woebegone, oops, I mean Active Rain.  OK, my apologies to Garrison Keelor, who I actually got to see on Friday night live at Wolf Trap.  Every week when I start to write this post, I want to start off this way.  This was a real chance to do it!  Anyway, here goes with the list:

Blair Branch:  What To Do When a Builder Won't Budge  This is Blair's first Active Rain post, and let's stop by to let her know she did a great job!

Chris Ann Cleland: Waiting on a Government Clearance Nearly Killed the Deal  Yikes!  What a pain, especially when you sell in Government Central.

Nancy Laswick: I Have A New Love!  Ah!  To know one is to love one!  And Nancy has lots of great information on how she uses hers.

Dagney Eason: WOW! That Phone Rang FAST, ActiveRain!  Yes indeed. sometimes the magic works!

Kathy Sheehan: Get Motivated #17  This was so good that I'm feeling the need to go check out numbers 1 through 16!

Lisa Von Domek: Financing and Your Credit Score - Information You Need To Know!!!   Great information, clearly explained!

Cynthia Larsen: I hate being told that I'm screwed  Well, sometimes we are just that, and in this case - literally!  Hope it's getting better!

Janna Rankin Scharf  Cock-a-doodle-doo! Roosters face sex-discrimination in Hayden, Idaho  Poor roosters!  Poor hens!

Jennifer Prestwich: What Would Make You Fire a Client?  Usually, it takes a lot.  How do you answer this question?

Missy Caulk: Reflections on Memorial Day 2012  This is a beautiful, very personal Memorial Day post.  Thank you for sharing this with us, Missy.

That's all for this week.  Have a good Memorial Day.  And remember, it's not about eating tons of junk food at a picnic!  See you back here next week.
