It sounds very similar to mine and I hope I progress to FT like you do. In other words you feel subctracting for other VAs really can keep someone busy? That's my main goal is to subcontract.

I'm new to the forum and am so happy to have found it. Hearing real stories of women and men who are actually making this business work for them is a huge motivator for a newbie like me. I had to grin at the raising chickens and turkeys piece. There was a time, about 7 years ago that I found myself raising a few of everything! From goats, to chickens to pot belly pigs. I loved the chickens and had a favorite turkey named Petrie. There is nothing like fresh eggs! Thank you to the author and to you for sharing your story. __________________ Gina Starr - Owner/Virtual Assistant 5-Starr Solutions
