Last Week's Favorites on ActiveRain: September 18th - 24th

By
Real Estate Agent with RLAH@properties AB95346

OK.  This should be fun.  It's the Favorites I'll be doing on the new system, and I have already shocked Willie the Labradoodle because of my foulest of language.  And almost nothing that I bookmarked is on my bookmark list, except for some leftover from last week that I can't get rid of! Then I was typing in Number 10 and accidently hit the backspace bar, and all but the first four vanished.  But hey!  I said I'd be back on Sunday morning and here I am!

OK, Pat!  Stop whining!  Get on with it!  So here is what I am able to remember from the original batch:

Meet People Face-to-Face. It’s Better than Social Media for Business Ron and Alexandra Seigel:  Face to face is more social than Facebook!

Excellence . . . . is a Habit Lou Ludwig: here is more wisdom from Lou, who makes a daily have of posting, well, wisdom!

Real Estate Transactions: Bringing Sexy Back Robin Hobbs: this is Robin's 4th post here, and I hope that she'll start do give us more.

Just Say No... or Yes Carol Williams: Saying no is a skill a lot of us need to develop - me included! Or maybe me especially.

Self Promotion Success | Market like You Mean It | The Phone Ring Barbara Todero: Barbara has a great additude, which paired with hard work, is magic.

The Secret Sauce Ingredient...  Maria Sapio: Maria is still fairly new to ActiveRain, and I am really enjoying her style and her posts.

What Does Ch'i Mean? Laura Cerrano: If Ch'i has always seemed like a huge mystery to you, Laura explains it pretty clearly.   So thank you, Laura!
Just Returned From A Fabulous Trip Along the Maine Coast  Johnson: 
If you missed  Maine this summer, this is very close to the real thing!
My top 10 articles = 54% of my website traffic! Debbie Gartner: Debbie is so good at monitoring her traffic.  This demystifies it a bit.  It also links to some terrific posts!
Chirp, Chirp, Chirp.. said the Smoke Detector at 3 AM Bob Gilbert: What some people will do to get out of their morning workout!
So that's all for now.  It's the wee hours now here in DC, and I need my rest to be ready for another amazing Open House tomorrow!  Have a great week.  And if I can figure out how to navigate this new site, I may see you again next Sunday!

Hi, Patricia...in spite of the changes I'm glad you were able to get this post off. I personally haven't had time to really explore the new layout.

Pat- once again you have found posts that I've missed.  Thank you and to echo what Debbie Laity said, with all of the changes it's been hard catching all of the posts.

Praful, the layout thing took a long time to figure out when I first started to do this post.  I just go nuts when photos vanish.
