Happy Valentine's Day to all my online friends...

.

garaughty, valentine

 

 Today I received several totally unexpected notes, emails & ecards from a few people I only know through our online connection.

 One of my favorite things about the internet is that many of my online friends have also become some of my best friends. Many of you are here on Active Rain. I won't try to list you all because I'm sure to leave out one or two and that wouldn't be too cool. ;-)

 Being on Active Rain seems to bring out the best in people, not just who we are as realtors, trainers, techies, stagers, lenders or artists, etc. but who we are as people helping, learning from, supporting each other and having a lot of fun along the way.

  Today being Valentine's Day I wanted to let each and every one of you know that "meeting" you has been an amazing perk of being here in the Rain and I hope you all have someone special in your life to share Valentine's Day with. You guys really rock...

 the art of marketing you, marti garaughty

P.S.   The teddy bear is from VirtualBearGram.com

Marti - Thank you for all you have shared. Your heart is bigger than the large card valentines. I read you on a regular basis. Your blog nudged me into making Valentine contacts. I appreciate all you share.

Marti,

You do a great job.  I have a special someone who came home from work to nurse me back to health as I am sick today.  I'm a lucky gal to have such a great Valentine.
