Wow, where has the last 10 years gone? It seems like only yesterday that I walked through the doors of the Toronto Business Development Centre to apply for the Self Employment Assistance Program. We were told to turn our phones off but Siobhan was expecting to give birth to Jaden any second so I refusedContinue reading “Happy Anniversary to me! 10 years in business today.”

Customer Service par Excellence!
Some time ago, I blogged about an example of customer service that stood above the crowd: when Jennifer of Oust-A-Mouse offered me a second unit, “on loan”, to help battle my cottage mouse problem. Well, I am extremely happy to report that I have not seen any evidence of mice…no actual critters, no tell taleContinue reading “Customer Service par Excellence!”
I’ve been instructed to be creative!
Where has the month gone? I can’t believe I actually managed to type a blog back on January 5th, what with my hand still being really sore from surgery but I guess being pissed off helped. Thanks to Witchy and some homeopathic remedies, I’m healing well and will be back into the blogging chair soon.Continue reading “I’ve been instructed to be creative!”
ACANAC…Don’t trust them and don’t sign up with them! by Liz Saunders
We moved to our condo a year and a half ago. At that time, I took the opportunity to switch from Rogers (who I had always hated dealing with) to Distributel DSL. Turned out that Distributel was no better (ISP-wise) but they were nicer to deal with. So in October, out of desperation to get myContinue reading “ACANAC…Don’t trust them and don’t sign up with them! by Liz Saunders”
Getting on with life! by Liz Saunders
I can’t believe two weeks have passed since my last blog. During the cruise, when I was in so much pain from my arthritis, I promised myself that when I returned I would get on the phone to my hand and foot surgeon and make appointments. Well, I like to keep my promises to myselfContinue reading “Getting on with life! by Liz Saunders”
It all boils down to customer service! by Liz Saunders
The trip is over. I type this sitting on the floor of the plane because we’ve got the best leg room ever right beside the emergency exit. But I’ve never seen this much leg room, it’s awesome. One of the best things of this trip. The ship was quite impressive compared to the tug boatContinue reading “It all boils down to customer service! by Liz Saunders”
Homeopathics, Rx and Cuba – Who knew? by Liz Saunders
In preparation for our vacation, I made a trip to Riverdale Homeopathy on the Danforth to pick up some Calcarea Phorphoric. This is the most amazing stuff that Witchy Woman suggested I take for pain relief for my arthritis. The one thing I know about Florida is that while there’s a Dollartree, CVS, Publix, WalgreenContinue reading “Homeopathics, Rx and Cuba – Who knew? by Liz Saunders”
On our way to Fort Lauderdale…No Wait, Make that Montreal by Liz Saunders
It has been a very interesting start to our vacation. First thing this morning, I heard from daughter Siobhan – my computer would not connect to the internet. This is a serious issue as she’s looking after The Virtual Alternative while I’m away. I think it might stem from the fact that yesterday IContinue reading “On our way to Fort Lauderdale…No Wait, Make that Montreal by Liz Saunders”
An interesting month… by Liz Saunders
Where did the last month go? Back at the beginning of September (I know, that was 2 months ago) I signed up a new virtual client, who was actually someone for whom I had worked as a subcontractor for a colleague, a few years ago. Great fun, booking appointments, talking to lots of people onContinue reading “An interesting month… by Liz Saunders”
And the journey continues….by Liz Saunders
It’s now been 17 days since I took the B.C. I had a meeting with Witch Keila on day 12 and she tells me that based on certain incidents over the first 12 days, it’s working. For the record, despite my threat to Google B.C., I have restrained myself. I mentioned in a previous postContinue reading “And the journey continues….by Liz Saunders”
