Any ideas?
My husband and I have been married for almost 16 years. For most of these years I have been able to stay at home with our 5 children. For the past 2 years I've had to work. Which my job may be coming to an end here soon. I honestly don't want to have to return to work. If I were to get laid off I would be able to collect unemployment unless of course they run out which would be my luck! :shock:
We have figured up that if we cut out all the extras like cable, internet-YIKES, home phone, private school $170-and homeschool, Karate (which the kids are getting tired of anyway), the extra gas of $300 at a minimum a month, the $300 for a sitter that we can do this. Dropping full coverage insurance (our cars are paid for anyway and not worth a mint). I would be cooking more from scratch instead of being in a rush and picking something up or ordering pizza.
I am just trying to think of anything else to help or even generate money. I am doing some sewing but I'm not all that savvy with it just yet so I couldn't make money there. I don't have a quilting machine.
The only thing I can think of is......my husband works nights and on Mondays he doesn't usually sleep during the day. So, I could have him teaching/watching the kids and I could go and clean a house or two. When I got home he could then go and take a nap like he usually does. That could generate $65- over $100 right there. I would just have to have that lined up to do just on Mondays. Plus it would get me out of the house.
Can you think of anything else? It would be so greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
