Default Accounting certification in the mail!!
Hello all!!

Whew, am I ever so glad these courses are done!! While it was fun and challenging - life was toooo hectic!! LoL. Family, housework, schooling, part time job and baseball season running two teams...

As mentioned some time ago that I finished the first course with an overall grade of 96% with 100% on my final...

Well - I am done the second course and did even better!

I got overall grade of 98% with 98% on my final...

And the greatest news of all - after sending in a lot of resumes for an accounting/bookkeeper jobs in order to gain the experience I needed for my soon to be VA business providing accounting/bookkeeping services....(not easy getting hired being deaf and all. I would get calls because of my qualifications but once they found out I was deaf - it's a no go)...

I got a job!!

And one that appears that I can do mostly from my home office!!! After the initial training - I will ask to have this be a business to business instead of an employer and an employee. I am mostly confident that she will go for it due to limited hours for an employee. This will help save her expenses on CPP, EI, vacation pay and I will save by being able to deduct expenses.

Yay!! Please hope for me that this goes well!!

Also may I ask those of you who build websites to please PM me. I am looking to get my website up but do not have the time or patient to design one at this time. Yet I need the website up soon and I am hoping to have it hosted by Tess!

Thank you all for listening and have a great day!

Congratulations on completing school and getting such awesome grades! As a VA juggling a part-time job, home life and school, I know how trying it all can be. I am positive you put in a lot of hard work to get such good grades. Good for you!

A double congratulations on landing the accounting/bookkeeping job. You are on a roll.
