Why I've Been Missing in Action - We're in the Makeover2Takeover Contest!

It has been awhile since I've posted a blog here - 18 days to be exact - but there is a good reason, I promise. Over the past few weeks, I've been busy working in my business, as well as volunteering for for Keller Williams Gives Back Yard Sale being held on June 7th in Raleigh. It feels so good to do something for others.

Also, my friend and colleague at Keller Williams, Penny Robinson and I were chosen to participate in the ActiveRain MakeoverToTakeover Contest - and we're soooo excited!!

ActiveRain chose 16 teams - and each week one team will be eliminated until three (3) teams remain. The winner will be crowned at 2008 Inman SF Connect!

Today, we submitted our first challenge - relating to Penny's data base. We gave it our best shot - and we're hoping to move on to Week 2. (We'll find out on Monday, May 26th via the Official ActiveRain Blog. Please send us your best wishes!)

Here's a picture of the first day we got together to work on our submission. We thought that food would help boost our brain power. :-)

Darleen - I didn't know you made it into the contest! Congratulations, I'm sure that's keeping you quite busy, going to go check out the first project!

Darleen,

That photo of me looks fierce! I am warning off all of the other teams that they better watch out for the "KW Dynamic Divas"!

Thanks for all of your hard work and help...you are the best!

Darleen - I hope you will do well. I too have been MIA just very busy.

Penny H. ~ Hi. Thanks! Yes, Penny Robinson and I made it into the contest. And yes, it's keeping us quite busy.

Penny R. ~ It's great working with you - and yes, our photo rocks!! :-) I'm looking forward to the Week 2 challenge.

Jennifer ~ Thanks. It's sometimes difficult to do everythingin a day. But hopefully, I'll be able to stay on top of my blogging - at least 2 or 3 posts a week. :-)

Darlene, food does boost brain power. I gained four pounds during the Week One challenge.

Darleen - I am just catching up with this contest! It is great to see you (and Penny R.) participating and I have my fingers crossed for ya! Good luck!!!

Patricia ~ Wow! I'm afraid to get on the scale. :-)

Leesa ~ Thank you. I have butterflies as I'm typing this!

Hi Darleen,
So that is what you've been up to. Good for you, what a challenge and opportunity. Good luck to you and Penny R.

Cynthia ~ Hi. Yes...that's what I've been up to. These last few weeks have been so crazy (but in a good way!) Thanks for your well-wishes. Participating in this challenge is so much fun - but makes me nervous, too. :-)

Hi Darleen, we have not met yet so I wanted to stop by and say hi, and best of luck in the rest of the contest. It must be nice being able to be with your team mate in person, Josh is in LA and I'm in TX, of course hence our name, Team Tex-La. We're burning the phone and computer lines up through. Glad to meet you, Liz
