Working at home. Sounds nice doesn't it?

After being a stay at home mom for 1 1/2 years, i felt the need to get out and work. Don't get me wrong, i love taking care of my son and husband, i just needed (or maybe it was wanted) money...don't we all? Hower, daycare is expensive, and if i were to get a job outside the home my paycheck would most likely all go towards paying for the daycare.

If only i could find a job i could do from home seemed like the best idea. I could still take care of my family AND bring in an income. Sounded perfect. I just didn't know how hard it would be to find this perfect job.

I tried Avon, but i live abroad and it wa more money clearing the Avon than i made selling it. I tried publishing a free Ad magazine, but i guess times are tough and people don't need advertising. I tried selling my husbands painting on Etsy...didn't work. I tried it all it felt, and being over seas did not make it easier at all...everything seemed to be based on a US location. For example, Online survey and Ad reading...great idea...if you live in the US or Canada. But it was not available to me, except for Hits4pay.com, they allowed me to participate and i have been having fun with that (you can see the ad/link on the top of the page). I can make anywhere from a few cents to $5 an ad just for reading it!

I'm still on my journey for the perfect stay at home job....but i am getting closer!
