The Margarets of Maryland ...Top Two Women in ActiveRain

Back in March of 2008, I wrote this post..

''The Margarets of Maryland"

What do you do when someone with your name passes you by in the ActiveRain rankings? You say "Congratulations!" Especially when that someone is a gracious lady named Margaret Woda.

A few weeks ago, the Other Margaret of Maryland warned me to get my blogging back up to speed because she didn't want to pass me and become #2 on the Maryland page. How's that for thoughtful and considerate?

But I've been a bit busy lately with changing companies, taking new listings, speaking at the Women's Council of Realtors, taking classes, and, oh yes, writing a book (coming this summer!) With all that, the blogging frequency slipped and so did those points.The other night I called Margaret Woda to congratulate her, and we had a lovely conversation. I can't think of anyone I'd rather have overtake me…at least temporarily...than this Anne Arundel County professional.Congratulations, Margaret!''  This was written in 2008!

Fast forward a few years ....January 2011, I received this email from the other Margaret in Maryland.
From: Margaret Woda,  To: Margaret Rome

''  Congratulations!  Hey, you're back where you belong - ranked above me on Activerain.....''  and signed...
''Margaret (The other Margaret in MD)''

Again today, Margaret and I had a wonderful conversation, talking about this past year, sharing some gal pal stuff and making plans to get together soon for lunch. Margaret is a gracious, kind, supportive, wonderful sharing and caring friend. I am delighted to share the top two women positions with her.

There is definitely room at the top for both of us...The Margarets in Maryland.
