Sometimes you deserve a second chance, not because you weren't fabulous the first time but because the timing and circumstances weren't quite right. You just got overlooked."

Does getting Featured here in The Rain sometimes feel like a roll of the dice? Not anymore. I'm always open to member suggestions on posts that should be Featured but somehow got missed. 

Giving deserving posts more exposure is what Second Chance Saturday is all about.  As you read blog posts during the week, be sure to tag me in the comment section of any post you wish to nominate as Feature-worthy.  Then watch for it in the next edition of Second Chance Saturday.

Hey Anna Banana Kruchten CRB, CRS 602-380-4886 
No golf for me this weekend. Not sure when I'll play again. Busy packing stuff up getting ready for the flooring project this week.  We had a super fun member / guest event last Thursday at my course.

Hi Myrl Jeffcoat 
Getting ready for a major flooring project in my house so "enjoy" isn't a word I'm using this weekend. It's pretty much like getting ready to move.     However, I know I'm going to love it when it's done.
