When I joined WA I was overwhelmed with TMI!, confused by so many offers that turned out to be scams, and not sure where to focus. Through WA and a bit more experience, I can mostly keep myself focused and ignore the scam offers that flood my e-mail. It IS hard - the Internet by nature is a place where everything is a click away and oh, so tempting.

I retired early a couple of years ago when my department (Hospital Medical Transcription done from home) was discontinued. After three back surgeries, and needing much more than my tiny Social Security check provides, I decided to make Internet Marketing work. It will be so fun if I can be a success at it, and I've been having lots of fun anyway just trying things out and learning. I've come to the conclusion that I have to stick to one or two main courses of action.

A big problem for me is I haven't an extra penny; so basicallly have to do what I can for free until the next check comes in (it's pretty much the same story every month).

I have 6 cats and 2 dogs, and am hoping to add a Newfoundland puppy to my fam once the finances are better. I live in Portola, CA - a lovely rural town with the Feather River running through it. Rural is definitely my best environment, with amenities close by in Reno, Nevada if I need them. I love gardening and nature and wildlife and all animals. I'm developing my gardening niche here through WA, and plan to work on others as well. I have to work hard to keep myself on track so don't want to diversify too soon. There is so much I need to understand and learn.
