What in the.....

Hello!

About 5-6 years ago I became separated from my ex-husband, leaving me with nowhere to live, no money, no job, two kids, a truck and a few credit cards.  I was a stay at home mom for about 4 1/2 years and didn't need to work outside the home at that point.  I was dead on broke.  My children and I moved in with my mom and her husband for about a month, till I managed to move out and get my own place.  I've never lived alone, so this was incredibly scary and to do it with two children was FAR worse for me.  I have to say this was the lowest point in my life.  The fear, the struggle and the loneliness that I felt more often than not.  Even to this day, thinking of that old apartment and my life then makes me feel ill.

I did eventually get a job hardly making anything, but it was better than nothing.  I went many nights without food so I could feed my kids and keep a roof over our heads.  I made a lot of mistakes, gained a LOT of debt, but I got through.  Finally in 2008 I met an incredible man who would bring me out of this darkness I was in and show me what love really was and gave me my spine back.

Now, in 2011, I have finally decided to take my life into my own hands and go back to being a stay at home mom, but not just yet.  You see, my husband and I would love to have a baby, but with the cost of raising a child, along with daycare costs, I'd be bringing home maybe $5.00 a week.  What is the point in that?  So, my only option is to work for myself.

I've been researching for YEARS about what I could do to work from home.  I could kick myself in the ass for not thinking or acting on this stuff sooner!  It's honestly very simple.  Sell myself on E-Bay or Amazon or Craigslist.  It only seems logical, but did I do it?  Nope.  I just kept going to work daily, wishing for that magic day, which never happened.  I wound up laid off 3 times in a 3 year time span.  Not because of my abilities, but because of the economy and downsizing.  I don't want to sit here and wait for that other shoe to drop again. I'm tired of that.

My plan is to build this business with you along the way.  I know that there are many single moms and dads, parents who have just lost a job and need to get back on their feet and just don't know how to do it.  I don't want you to feel alone.  I want you to feel empowered as I do, more often than  not.  I am still learning how to do all of this and I want YOU to learn as well.

Until my next post, please look at the links provided on this page and check them out.  This isn't a scam, this isn't BS.  It's actually real and you can make money as well.  You just need a few things and the guts to do it is one of them.

Talk to ya soon!
