My baby is bigger now, and I'm getting a bit bored at home. So, I've been looking around to see if there's a good online job I can do. And, i got a friend who would refer me to their agency for a Virtual Assistant job. The pay is just right for my monthly personal needs.
However, I first need to get a strong DSL Line installed, which I've already applied for. I've waited almost a month now for this to get done. It's just that there's limited providers in our area who could give a good signal strength.
Then, next, I got to find a nanny to look after my baby while I'm busy with work and when I'm resting. It's a nightshift, from 1AM to 7AM. So, the nanny just needs to tend to the baby when she wakes at the middle of the night, and in the day when I'm sleeping.
I hope I could get things done soon, so I could start earning extra. I don't like asking money from my husband all the time, when I need to buy stuff.

I have heard about the virtual assistant but I can't attend the orentation because I live in the province. But I have a broadband canopy type internet connection.
Earning our own money boost our confidence. I am hoping I could find good earning jobs online.

How's the strength of your connection?
I think you're in the Philippines. You can find many online options at Odesk. Try that, if you haven't yet.

I can't even pass the readiness test in odesk, hehe. Maybe I will try harder. If you can send me links of your online jobs? Cab you send me through private messaging here? I know we are not allowed to send links ijn public.
Thanks in advance.

I havent started, but a friend of mine promised me a slot in their agency once I get my internet connection fixed. The agency gets jobs off odesk.

hi there jureathome.
good luck in your new endeavor, may you succeed in it. i'm also looking for similar work. my current work schedule allows me some time in the afternoon to take a second job and i think being a virtual assistant can help me in my endeavor. i've also tried to apply as an online esl teacher but i haven't heard anything yet from the two companies that i applied at. i'm going to do this second job as a part-time thing to augment my current salary.
cheers and happy mylotting!!!

That's a good consideration for you. I bet you're still single. If that is so, then make hte most of your extra time. Save up and party harder!

My friend was going to refer me, so I don't have the link. She just asked for my skype ID, but I still have to wait for my DSL line to be installed.

Hi friend, good to hear about this, so you are ready to do your online job and not interested in disturbing your hubby for your financial needs. That;s great. Wish you to get the DSL connection soon and earn a lot from your online business. All the best

Yeah, but Im still waiting for the internet line to be installed. It's taking too much time. It's almost end of the year, and I was hoping I could start earning before Christmas. In the meanwhile, I'm also looking for a nanny.

It really is a good thing for the wife to empower herself by having a means to have her own money aside from the allowance given by her husband. I'm sure that the family can use the extra money, but aside from that, it is also something that a wife must do for herself, let her be her own self once more as long as her family has been taken cared of first.
I receive the same lesson from my mom, and that is what I also prefer. Despite the fact that my husband prefers that I just stay at home, he knows my desire to work and he supports whatever decision I may have.
Good luck on the potential job, and I hope you have the same good luck in securing a very reliable and trustworthy nanny.

Yeah, but all those are still plans, because I still have to get things together before I could start working. I don't want to leave the baby unattended and at the same time, take the job haphazardly.
