If you are needing quick money, look into babysitting. It will allow you to stay home plus it will give your kids some friends to play with. You can get about $10-15 an hour. It is usually all cash. Maybe then you could watch a child/children at your home when your hubby is at work and then have them gone when he gets home. You could also do some writing when the kids nap or go to bed at night. Good luck!

you sound just like the kind of person I could relate to. I have beenhoem with mine for while too. I started my own cleaning busniness years ago so that I could be home with my kids and make money too. It is hard and rewarding just nice to know your out there!!

Yeah, pet stores are great. We have a large fish tank, so our weekly Sunday family ritual usually involves a trip to the "fish store". Thanks for all of your ideas, they are wonderful! I have wanted to check out the Ham Lake indoor park, because it is fairly close to us. I think you have motivated me!

Thanks for posting on the stay at home forum. It's good to know that I'm not the only one struggling - I thought that after 2 years I should be all figured out and cool, but I am totally not! Just proves that no matter what you are doing full-time, it is still work.

LOVE your message board name!
