Hi, if it helps, at the moment IM 16 hours ahead of Eastern standard Time for the US I have been known to be up early or get up late if it's an important call. I also have Skype out so can make international at least to the US and bring other Australians in. Or anyone else on Skype for that matter. Hope this helps.

Blessings!  Maria and my guide Karly  email bubbygirl1972 at gmail.com
