Update: personal
While I started at WA with the goal of learning how to maximize earning potential online, something happened that I didn't expect.... I've made some amazing friends. I understand that this community and forum is for the purpose of online business, but I need to get this message out. Forgive me, I'm making the decision to write this but I also promise to make it very short.
A few months ago, I made a few comments alluding to the fact that I was going through a really bad divorce. Many of you send PM's to me sharing your stories about similar situations. It was very comforting and I appreciate all of them. In addition, folks would send me well wishes.
While going through all of that, I also had to start my own local web solutions business to make money to support myself and two boys. Once again, when I needed help the entire WA community was here for me.
Since so, so, so many of you have "lived" through this with me, I feel like I owe you the final chapter:
The divorce is FINAL! I will never again have to put up with the abuse and most of all neither will my two boys. My business has kicked off. I made close to $6,000 last month all because of what I've learned here at WA. (remember, I had a one time gig of creating 30 sites for lawyers which was $4800 of the $6000) Contrary to what you may think, I absolutely hate talking to strangers and the simple thought of "sales" makes me feel gross. So, tomorrow morning I am interviewing someone to be the "face" of my company, Web Solutions of North Texas. The position is a 1099 contract position. I'm simply offering her 30% of all sales regardless of whether it is web design, content management, social media campaigns, or lead list management.
I would have NEVER NEVER made it this far without my WA friends. THANK YOU. Seems like I say that a lot around here but you are all so amazing, I want the world to know!

So happy for you. Been there. Done that. I wish you all the best on your new journey. Keep us updated.
Sorry you had to go through a divorce, too. Bet we could have a few laughs over some wine someday. Finding that only time and faith heal and each day gets easier. Thanks for your sweet comment and hope you enjoy the weekend!
Hi Tracy, I am so happy for you in the fact you were able to push through a troubled time for you. I personally have gotten divorced before and it is never a pleasant situation even when you know its for the better.
You have my best wishes and success both financially and spiritual.

Rich, Thank you so much for your sweet words. The divorce was bad but worth it. I'm sorry to hear you had to go through it as well. At least I have found who my "real" friends are in life. Funny, the ones I thought would be there for me ran for the hills and the ones I wasn't sure about still bring dinner to me once a week!

I am really happy for you. You've worked hard to get this far and deserve every bit of it. I wish you lots of happiness with your boys. Take good care of yourself so you can take care of them.
Sending you a big virtual hug across the many miles...
Awe, I love you and your amazing spirit. Thank you for your kind comments and happy wishes for the boys. It's Friday night now and they both have friends spending the night.... for now, they are very happy and that is all I need to be at peace. Happy weekend, enjoy.
