OT: I want to work from home....
How cool Tara...
Can you give me some more info. I think I know what you do, but I'm not sure. A merchandizer sets up displays in stores, right? That could be cool. I had a friend that was doing that in CA. She said it was tons of fun.
I'm going to check out the website and talk with my hubby about it. I definitely want to do SOMETHING....just have to figure out what...

Susan, My sister's sister in-law went to school and became a medical transcriptionist and worked from home making $35,000 to $50,000 a year doing that for a bout 6 years. She just went to doctors offices and solicited them to let her work from home. Also I have know paralegals who did some work for attorneys from dictation tapes. Just a few ideas if you don't want to do the selling idea.
I did work from home when my kids were small doing some work office work for a Mary Kay director I knew and that worked well for me. I have known people who did ironing (which I could never do because I have to iron). They just placed adds in the paper with their phone number, especially if you are near a college.
I hope this helps some.

Thanks Teresa!! This was something my dh and I discussed also. I didn't realize it could actually be that lucrative though. I'd actually be happy with much less than that. Just some "fun money" for me to buy clothes with, take the kids to the movies a little more often and for vacations.... But, it's nice to know the option is there to actually make a decent living at that!!
