Setting up your workstation space

If your serious about working at home, then do it. I am living proof that you can work from home and no I don’t do the stuffed envelopes and all those “programs” out there that seem to just want you money, I am a customer service specialist that really enjoying working at home and helping others.

In your workstation area, first make sure its a quiet place in your home, whether it in your bedroom, den/office area or wherever you feel most comfortable working at. For me, for now until we get moved into a bigger/better home, I have my workstation  area set up in a corner of my bedroom, its an L shaped corner. I have my desk with computer and things on it and a table where I can grab my papers and files and such if needed and a stackable thing to put things in. And one of the most important things, my all in one printer/scanner/fax, that is one of the most important things as you will be using it even if its just to scan a few things on the computer to send back to your employer.

This is real, its a day to day lifestyle for me and has been for the past 10 years! I have a business line I use for my clients to call in on and I have a landline as a personal number and also as a backup in case my business line (vonage) goes down or whatever then I have my landline to transfer the calls too and its not that difficult to do.

Make sure your printer has printer of ink, you will be filling out applications and sending them back in sometimes when the employer wants a hard copy of your signature etc and if you need to fax something in etc you want to always make sure that you have ink and paper stocked.

It’s not just a dream, its reality for me staying home, spending time with my kids and making money.

Starting classes next week for my new job

So last night I had my orientation for my new job that will be starting pretty soon. We got off to a rough start with technical difficulties with the instructor having issues but everything was worked out and we got into the room finally and got things gone through that we needed too.

My class starts on Monday the 28th and will last 11 days Mon-Fri only. I picked the evening class since I am not a huge morning person!

I am excited about starting the classes and getting into it and learning everything I can about the client that I will be taking the incoming calls for. I am also excited because I learned that I can also get certified (take classes and pass) for other clients at the same time that I am working so that will be a great thing 🙂

And one of the best things I believe about all this..this is a short class being only 11 days but also a great thing is that we can go for overtime anytime we want. The minimum hours is 35-40 hours a week but we are allowed to work overtime if we like.

>Love your pets? Make sure they stay healthy

>I love my pets, they are more like family and kids then pets. And I want to make sure that they are healthy as I am sure that you do too. So take a look at petmeds and some of the great offers they are offering right now.

I love the idea of saving money however I can so if someone has a sale going on and I need something that is the best time to grab it and especially with shipping and such. I love buying things on the net, its just much easier for me to go to pages and look around, add to my cart and click the order button rather then getting out and going to the store and seeing that they are out of what I need and getting frustrated about the time spent getting out and also when I go to the stores, It seems that I always end up spending more then intended and getting things that I could of waited on and got them on sale.

>My first child soon to be 18

>

I can’t believe that on the 31st my first son/child is going to be turning 18!!! Man how time gets away from you and flies by and I swear it only seems to go by faster the older that you get.   My son is a great person, I love him with all my heart more then he will ever know. He has had some rough times in his life, who hasn’t really..but we have made it through them and he’s grown up to be a great young man and soon to be adult.   He doesn’t like me taking lots of pics of him but through out the years I have managed to snap a few of him here and there and I am going to be putting something together, nothing too fancy/great, I’m not that talented but something to where I have pictures of him through out the year…I just need to go through all my pictures and then scan them and come up with a way to get them together like I want them.   My baby is turning into a man…and yes I am sure I will be crying more then once that day!
