I was cursed with the straightest hair known to man.

So begins my perm odyssey.

Oh...LOL...I can see that now. Thought it was Jon Schneider or something with that cool plaid shirt! ;-)

Kelly

That's not actually a poster, it's my oldest brother Kenny. It took a pic of a pic so it gave it a shiny look I guess.

Alice Seba

This wasn't wordless...LOL.

Look at itty-bitty Sean! How sweet. Tell him I said that, so he can be embarrassed.

Who's on the poster in the pic with you and the Boston Terrier (or is it a BT?).

Carrie

Oh my goodness you were a towhead!

Arika

Awww those are great pics Kelly. I always thought you had naturally curly hair like I do which when I was younger looked just as curly as yours without the perms.

Sorry I didn't know about this WW meme or I'd have posted Horrible (bad just doesn't cut it) Hair Day pics of myself! :)

Nell Taliercio

Awww, look at you! Hot Mama...and baby Sean was a doll ;)

Amy Shipp

Wow. Great photos! Maybe I'll do a bad hair one next week. Maybe not! :)

Sharon@NewUrbanMom

Oh those 1980's pictures! Talk about a blast from the past. You look so cool.

I feel bad I have not posted my asymetrical poofy hairdo picture from the 80's for WW (too lazy to look through albums, that are packed away). But after viewing your pics I'm feeling nostalgic.

Sarah

I had perms, too...but that just dried my hair out. Now I just color/die it and it is much better. I have natural curly hair. I don't know if it is any better (than straight hair) because it has a mind of it's own. :) Check out my son's hair for my WW~Sassyfrazz

Annette

HOW FUN!

Barbara

Oh wow, I did the constant perm thing too, amd my hair did not want to curl. Luckily my mom is a hairdresser.

How To Place an Ad for Your Services in Craigslist

Over the past few weeks we have been talking about working at home as a Telecommuter and/or starting your own business as a Virtual Assistant, no matter which direction you chose you will still need to know how to promote yourself in order to find work and/or projects. So today we are going to talk about How To Place an Ad for Your Services in Craigslist.

What is Craigslist exactly? It is a centralized network of online communities, featuring free online classifieds – with sections devoted to jobs, housing, personals, for sale, services offered, community, gigs, resumes, and discussion forums. Therefore, it is a great free way to reach your target market or to search for local telecommuting jobs and/or work as a freelancing virtual assistant.

Below I am going to walk you through step-by-step on how to post your ad on Craigslist.

1. Go to Craigslist.org.
2. Log into your account on Craigslist (if you do not have an account already set up then you can easily do so, its free).
3. Choose the State in which you wish to list
4. Then it will direct you to the Cities in that state to narrow your search. You then will choose the city in which you wish to list.
5. Next go to the top of the left column you will see “Post to Classifieds”
6. You will then be able to choose where you would like your ad posted. You will want to choose “Services Offered”.
7. Once you make your selection it will take you to a list of categories. You then will choose the category that best fits the services in which you offer.

Note: Craigslist now requires that your account be verified by phone in order to post to some categories. Therefore if your account has not been verified then you will need to follow the instructions to complete the verification. This is a really simple process. Your account will need to be verified in order for you to complete the posting of your ad.

Below is a brief description of how this process works. You will enter a valid telephone number. You can choose to receive an SMS message or a phone call. In this message you will receive an activation code in which you will enter into the box provided on the website. Once you enter that code and click continue your account will be activated and you can then begin posting your ad.

Once you are ready to post your ad you will then be asked for the following information to complete your ad Posting Title, Specific Location, and Posting Description (which is where your ad will go). You then click continue and your ad is posted! (Ads are active for 30 days before they are deleted.)
Before you fire that well deserved email response back at the customer who has complained unfairly – stop and rethink. A simple apology paired up with caring concern may win you a lifetime (profitable) relationship!
