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.  Be sure to tag me in the comment section of any post and watch for it in the next edition of Second Chance Saturday.

Hi Carol:

Life has been nuts and I can't believe the whole weekend, and today, went by and I hardly got to look at AR, comment or post.

Looks like another good list of reading. Maybe there will be more time tomorrow.
