My dear Dani,

How nice for you to ask. I am doing fine. Just started a job this week and like it so far. The commute stinks but the boss is nice. I get to help build up a company, kinda like a project manager of sorts. Very challenging and the staff there is friendly. Tired and overworked but friendly. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> So I have my work cut out for me.

I come on MB at night now and it w/b even harder since H is due back tomorrow. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" /> Well happy he's finally coming home but sad that I have to step away from MB for longer periods of time.

However there is a strong core of MBers to help out and many of the ones who thought they were newbies are stronger and able to help others. That is a good sign. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

I think of you and your family often. Glad to see you standing up for yourself. Sorry your H is such an azz. Seems like Tree is having a hard time also. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> When it rains it pours but you can always put up the MB umbrella. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Take care and thanks for asking. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Aloha,
L.

Never Mind That regular job Cr@p, L, when you going to train as a M coach ?

make bucks
Public service
Save Marriages
Restore personal pride in people
God Smiles
So does your bank manager

Whats the problem ? Confidence ? Don;t make me laugh!

Smarts ? See above

Just do it. And write your book with a qualification after your name on the dust cover.

like nike says 'just do it !' <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

HERE for a start. Or talk to RedHat.

I am looking for an MC. I am trying to work out a sitation where I wouldn't be delighted if a formally trained Orchid was offered to me.

No, can't think of one.

And neither can you.

THIS SITE would fill your appointments book with personal references alone.

It not a confidence thing, you DO this as a barefoot doctor RIGHT NOW !

* tsk * bloody women, WHY do they need prodding to sieze and opportunity ? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Orchid: meet your future career.
Future career: this is Orchid.

Consider yourself introduced.

Very interesting reading material. Will look into it soon. Ok, is there a 'finder's fee in this 4 u?' <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Thanks for your vote of confidence. I like helping here @ MB though sometimes, I can get into a bit of trouble. LOL!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> Not sure if I can balance it properly and provide 'help worth paying for'. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

For me it is a type of therapy to post here for it has literally saved a few lives (H's included - <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> ) and helped me survive. There are definitely better ways to share life's lessons and drive that point home than doing it with violence. Slow thoughtful torture by killing with kindess is much more effective. LOL!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Nah. Not buying it.

U would be MORE effective. MORE personally satisfied operating as a pro M. coach.

Amateur sport is fun, but PRO sport is funa and satisfying. Still, you know YOU best.

I just know what I see. And I've mentored many a career by spotting potential and investing over the years.

Imagine how you could help Squid and I if you knew all the history & dynamics from BOTH of us? And had a formal template for coaching to help you structure your advice.

I'll shut up over this now. Enjoy your commute <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

U r 1 good sale guy. Luv ya. Will seriously look into it. Really. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

Right now gotta go catch up on some zzz's. Past the beauty sleep stage. Morning comes around too quickly. Not even that night time wrinkle remover has time to work. LOL!!!

Short commute and rotten traffic. Have a 1 hour commute to go less than 25 miles. Go figure! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

g'nite,
L.

Oh yes! Pure Bob keep with her, don't let her back down!

Ahha! Perfect! Since the first day I posted on MB, I always look to Orchid for the PERFECT advice.
You have a customer in me!

Dani its NOT just flattery !

Orchid with a but of formal MB-SYMC type structure would be worth a hundred bucks a session of my money, or anyone's who was serious about saving their M.

I have no reason to blow sunshine at Orchid. She'd be great at MC, would earn good money while helping people, and would make God smile.

Wheres the problem?

Bob Pure,
There is no problem. You must have misunderstood the tone of my message. I am sorry. You are correct, it is NOT just flattery. Orchid is a great person, but on top of that she would be an amazing MC.

Ok, u 2 that's enough. Bob gave me a bunch of homework t/d. I will be reading the info and see. Also I have committed to another project with another MBer or 2 from here so I'd better get crackin'.

Have a nice weekend and thanks again.

Aloha,
L.

^bump^

You called SYMC about training as a coach yet ?

If not WHY not ?

You could be saving marriages professionally by the end of the year if you call today.

Enjoy your commute <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

Pushy aren't ya Bob? I luv it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Got a big hurdle at work. Decided to just bunch it all up into one big one and deal with it swiftly. LOL!!!

I promise to look at the info in more detail soon. I have that book commitment that if I don't start it soon, some MBer may just fly over here and beat me up. LOL!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
