It's Sunday once again - boy!  Time flies when you're reading great posts!  So here are a few of the the great posts that showed up last week on Active Rain:

Janis Borgueta: No... you can’t show the home today.. the forecast says RAIN!  Now, none of us are fair weather Realtors, but there are some out there!

Richie Alan Naggar:  MASSAGE THERAPY DOES MUCH GOOD  A good massage sounds pretty good right about now!

Richard Iarossi   I'm sorry your agent is working her "real job" but I can't help you.  This is a problem for some buyers and their agents.

Ed Silva:  Fire in the Sky . . . Sunday Photos  This is a beautiful photo blog that caught my eye last Sunday.

Greg Nino:  Realtors Who Dislike President Obama....  Here is some sane advice for a  passionate election cycle.

René Fabre:  Car Sticker Social Media  Here's one for animal lovers everywhere, and others who love to read bumper stickers.

Sheila Newton;  10 Website and Blog Mistakes that Cost You Sales Leads  This is a good read with lots of the obvious that we need to read often.

Celeste "SALLY" Cheeseman: Confessions of a Blogger?  If you think you're the only one who gets writers' block, read this!

Cindy Jones:  Everything You Need To Know About Having Your Home Ready To Show  Oh, my!  Cindy is channeling my mom!

And finally, a wonderfully outrageous post:  Gayle Rich-Boxman Sex Sells...Even if You Have to Give it Away!  This one won't disappoint!

Pat, I can't wait to read that first post about the rain. I showed new construction on Monday in the pouring rain--mud and all. I wasn't any fun but people who look in the rain are serious buyers. Silly Mr. Seller.

Patricia, as much as I try to stay on top of most posts, it is impossible to real through all these - so thanks a lot for your weekly feature. I had missed a few of them that I will visit now.

Hi Pat, Always a great list and I missed a bunch. We have been getting so many posts in the Photoblogger group, I need to do no less than 15 to 20 comments and then I haven't even seen the others that I like to follow. You selected some great ones and I will try to get to all of them.
