Back to Business! Sans Sharks....

Today I was able to get a few things out of the way as Ruby decided to catch up on some serious sleep deprivation - her recent "naps" have been more like "na" because you can't even get the word out and she is up and at 'em again!


I am putting together some mentoring and coaching programs for my VA Network, Virtually Yours, but today was quite frustrating because Yahoo Groups was not sending through messages for my groups - our main form of communication.


Yahoo Groups is such a great service and it's amazing that it's free, so I can't complain, but I am hoping like crazy that the emails that were attempted to be sent today, still come through when it's up and running again. 
I had asked members to express an interest in the programs I am running and I'd really like to know what sort of response I got.
Meanwhile, I've been so impressed with the amount of business support fellow VAs are offering to businesses affected by the floods.

Homes and Businesses Under Water.

Here I am being held back because Yahoo Groups isn't working for me today, while in some parts of Australia businesses need flippers to get to their waterlogged PCs - if the PC is even still there, rather than 30km upstream!

Plus the added bonus of not having sharks in my hallway as I go from 'home' to 'work' as was reported in one news article the other day... let me see if I can find it..... here it is - http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/environment/weather/flood-shark-sightings-have-residents-on-edge-20110113-19ozp.html - I can just hear the Jaws music as I read the article and see those pics.


And while we are on theme, seeing as you are reading this, you might like to read and you might like to support people in flood areas so feel free to check this out! http://authorsforqueensland.wordpress.com/
