New semester and new job on the horizon!

As my first semester at PPCC draws to a close, I am taking stock of all I’ve learned but also looking forward to the new challenges January will bring. My courses for the new semester are Contracts, Property Law, Civil Litigation, and Estates and Probate. January is, of course, also the start of tax season (Feel free to ask me for tips! I AM authorized to practice taxes!) and thus a new phase of employment. This year I’ve been asked to be an office manager, so I am very much looking forward to whatever additional light my coursework can shed on the workings of tax law. Any knowledge I gain from it is knowledge I can also pass on to everyone else at my office, after all!

To all who read this, I wish you a happy holiday season and a bountiful new year!

Resources for amateur gumshoes!

Here we have a compilation of online resources for basic investigation work. There is a wealth of information out there on the Internet but you need to know how to get at it and how far to trust it (and the answer for some online sources is “about as far as you can throw it and you can’t throw 1s and 0s”. Reference work was always my favorite and specialty when I worked in libraries and I have something of a knack for hunting down information so putting together this list was pretty enjoyable and I hope to make use of it in the future.
