I need to look into that!...What a great idea Katy! I need to look into that!<BR/><BR/>As for the working from home thing...I honestly don't know what you could do from home that actually works, because I've tried most of it unsuccessfully. If you like digital scrapbooking, those designers sell their kits and make supplemental income doing it (it's actually not as difficult as it sounds if you like learning and scrapbooking.) <BR/><BR/>Then there's the option of working one day a week cleaning houses. I have a friend who had to make an extra $500 a month and refused to leave her son at home, so on a day her husband was home from work (like a Saturday,) she would have her clients lined up that day and she charged $25 an hour. She never cleaned houses before that, she just learned as she went, and she ended up being the one who cleans our church building, and that's enough now for her to not have any other clients. So she just works on Sunday afternoons.<BR/><BR/>Another option is to find something with a smaller payment, or possibly trying to offer a lower amount on the house you want?<BR/><BR/>I know that if I could go back in time and change our bills that we have to pay every month, I would do everything in my power to not have to worry about being a stay-at-home mommy! But then again, I usually learn the hard way :)Rebekahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12473435852720086124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942208962770408878.post-85682869192295389942008-08-21T17:03:00.000-04:002008-08-21T17:03:00.000-04:00One thing chris and I are planning on getting is a...One thing chris and I are planning on getting is a heated ceiling fan!!! seriously!!!
