For week 7 challenge I have to say it was a bit stressful.  But we pulled it off and Jeannette did an outstanding job. 

It might be a bit lengthy but its here for the taking.  You may want to edit and taylor make it your own.

I can't stress it enough the 180 tasks of a REALTOR is one of the best tools I have ever used and it may be very useful to you!

I also wanted to say congrats to Missy Caulk and Kim Woods,  Desiree Daniels and Brian Block every one of you have taught me a few things. 

 

We feel priveledged and honored to be part of this group. You all have to know how much we respect and admire all of your hard work.

Jeanette...

Great list, thanks.  Congratulations by the way.  When is the big announcement?  At least I hope they make a big deal out of it!  For all the hard work done by everyone, I don't think the acknowledgment was that great.

That's a very long list! I'll have to compare it to mine and see if I'm missing anything.  Probably not with that list.
