I do have some accounting training (like 11 credit hours worth) from 
GCC. I am not a CPA and I don't have the necessary training to be one 
yet. I am good with numbers though. I am learning how to manipulate 
OpenOffice here on the mac (the mac has voice over and a nice zoom 
function) so doing word processing and spreadsheet stuff is getting 
easier for me at least.

I wouldn't mid the work as a book keeper either. Put me there or in an 
entry level IT position, or as an inbound CSR for an ISP or autoparts 
dealer, etc. I just need to be some where. :)

Hell, if i was in better shape, I'd be out in the fields picking melons 
or on a construction site driving nails with a hammer (assuming anyone 
would hire a visually impaired person to do those jobs). At this point I 
am willing to do just about anything.
