Go ahead - I hope others find them as useful as I did.

I'm starting to get enquiries for work now, and my local networking group (part of http://www.ecademy.com ) has met for the first time, with useful help on local networking, so I'm hoping things will get going shortly.

Thanks Dianne :)

I really appreciate the helpful posts you contribute here.

I'm glad to know work seems to be picking up. Keep us up to date.

I have been blessed to have some great information from Diana Ennen too. She is a really successful VA and a great gal!

Great links ladies. Nell - I agree, Diana is a great lady and a wealth of information.

She is the "smarty at the party" (from the moms town reality radio..hehe) for sure. (and I mean that in a good way ;) )
