Comments for Virtual Assistant - THE Blog About Our Industry http://vadirectory.net/blog About the Virtual Assistant industry for VAs and for clients Thu, 07 Aug 2008 19:57:22 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.2 Comment on Keep your bookkeeping up to date! by Kirk Ward http://vadirectory.net/blog/2008/05/07/keep-your-bookkeeping-up-to-date/#comment-100020 Kirk Ward Wed, 06 Aug 2008 21:05:31 +0000 http://vadirectory.net/blog/2008/05/07/keep-your-bookkeeping-up-to-date/#comment-100020 Hi Kathie, I'm a retired accountant and am especially frustrated by the names I see posted to my account. I find it almost impossible to tell what charge matches up with what receipt because of the short abbreviations that are used, and the fact that many merchants use clearinghouses to process their collections and the same clearinghouse name shows up on post after post each and every time. I tried Googling, but sometimes that even fails. Hi Kathie,

Do you suppose it applies to things like my Squidoo pages as well? I have almost as many of those as I do blogs - and more of both on the way. Maybe I'll live forever! If not, at least I should live stress-free! I guess this means I can stop worrying about my blog addiction! Do you suppose it applies to things like my Squidoo pages as well?

I always look at these times as God's way of telling me I'm too focused on something and I need to step back and take a break. Thanks for the reminder that some things are just beyond our control and we can make it a positive experience as you did or just let the frustration add to our stress - which is never a good thing!

Well written blog post.

Now I know why you have 14+ blogs! I have 7 and my favorite thing to do is write in at least one of them daily. I wonder how many blogs we need to reach immortality :)? Have a great Sunday, Heidi Kathy,

But it is true that people are finding out about us daily, although we've been around for many years now. I expect there are other professions I don't know exist either. So glad you could drop by. Make sure you read the info for new VAs in my menu on the right. Amazing you’ve just found out about our industry!

I was introduced to Wordpress as well to begin sessions...Now I know, given ample time, I can be a good virtual assistant myself.
