What I Learned This Week at ActiveRain-December 1 to December 7, 2019

 

I learn something new every day at ActiveRain! With this series, I try to highlight one post per day that gave me that lightbulb moment. It could be something techie, something about Real Estate or the other professions that I never knew, about a place, or about a person. Or, it could be a post that made me sit up and take notice! 

 

scott godzykDecember 1: Scott Godzyk The Top 5 Worst MLS Comments I Saw This Weekend

I'll bet we could all add to that list!!! Which one would you add?

 

cindy edwardsDecember 2: Cindy Edwards   Home for the Holidays

If you’ve ever returned to your childhood home then you’ll love Cindy’s post. 

 

grant schneiderDecember 3: Grant Schneider Frosty Day in Armonk Happens in Spite of Sleet

Frosty the Snowman has always been one of my favorite Christmas songs. This is a cute local post from Grant.

 

alan mayDecember 4: Alan May In Evanston It's Illegal to Change Clothes in a Car With the Curtains Drawn...EXCEPT in Case of Fire

You have to laugh and wonder what unique laws your city may have on its books.

 

marte cliffDecember 5: Marte Cliff Easily confused and perhaps the wrong word altogether...

Good point Marte about the words we choose. It's not enough to grab a word out of the air that sounds right! Google it if you need to!

 

joseph dominoDecember 6: Joseph Domino Not all acronyms are created equal

It really is disruptive (there you do Michael Jacobs) to have to stop and Google what the alphabet soup means when you're reading a post!

 

sally and david hansonDecember 7: Sally and David Hanson An "Angelic" Estate Closing with the Hansons

This post will definitely bring a smile to your face!!!

 

craig danielsCraig Daniels PRESENTATION of You- Your Blog Signature (Part 3)

If you haven't been following Craig and this series, now is as good a time as any to catch up. He is always so generous in showing us how to do these things that we want to do.

 

 

Don’t forget to check out Carol Williams Second Chance Saturday posts as well!!! I always find several posts that I’ve missed.
