Forgive me if this should go in Business:

I have 500 new and AWESOME business cards. If anyone would like me to send them some to hand out or to place at places they work at or frequent, where my services might be needed, hit me up at wordslingeuse@gmail.com with your addy, and how many cards you would like.

(They're so PRETTY and perfect for me!)

Thanks, Stompies. Over and out.

It's me again, with a personal request I HATE making, but as a business owner trying to get her bz and financial life back on track, I have to bite the bullet.

SO.

I have a HUGE favor to ask. If I have ever helped you in any way with writing ANYTHING or a resume , cover letters, or editing/copyediting and/or critiquing a manuscript, I really need testimonials for a site called Thumbtack, which will help expand my client base.

Your email address and your name would be anonymous.

If you could go to this link here: [link] and write a short, honest review of my awesomeness (hopefully awesomeness) I would be really grateful!

Ask me any questions, no problem, And if any of you lovely people DO do this for me, a million million heartfelt thanks from me!

(I HATE asking, it feels so gross and icky, but I KNOW I have to to build my client base and make, you know, money.)

I got into school (PhD in Information and Library Science), with a merit assistantship to boot! Stipend + tuition + health insurance, and they can't make me work more than 15 hrs a week on top of classes and homework. Thanks everybody for the ~ma!

Can anyone hook me up with a marine engineer, or other expert who can answer a technical question on freight ships? Profile addy is good.

As anyone in natter knows, I just bought a house! Still have to go through closing, but still. Me, by myself, on my own...a house. Ok, a townhouse. So the exterior is maintained by the HOA...but MINE.

Anyway - I'd love any advise on home ownership and maintenance. If you know of a good book or something that is a good resource for me to get - I'll take that too. Hit me up at my profile addy.

Can I beg a little of the power of the Buffista ~ma for a premature baby. My work friend had her 5 weeks early and she has been mostly holding up well, but now is backsliding and needing to be back on oxygen. She's not putting on ounces as quickly as TPTB would like.

Some strength ~ma and thriving vibes would be much appreciated!

Dan has signed the paper, and unless something happens to his ex on her long commute tonight, today we will have officially sold OUR HOUSE!

(On the DL until I see her signature on the dotted line. But I had to tell y'all.)

Can I get some Please Let This Sale Close This Time ~ma for our rental place? We signed a third sale agreement today, and I'm hoping that's the charm.

Guys I need rental-ma for tomorrow. The house we looked at tonight is MORE than perfect, more than we expected to find. We have the deposit; the landlord just needs to check our info on the app tomorrow and if everything is copacetic, we sign a lease tomorrow night.

We were upfront about having bad credit because of divorce/student loans, but D's income is good, he's worked for his job 10 years, has security clearances, and I have no criminal record, and I told him if he needed character references we would be able to provide truly stellar refs.

Please, please, -ma for tomorrow. I will be a nervous wreck until I hear from him that the application went through OK.

Thank you!
