Slow Progress

Through a friend of Onnix’s, we were able to obtain a list of distributors for DVDs and Video Games which we would like to sell on Ebay. Ebay sales seem to be the best way to make money from home and we have had good experiences in the past selling stuff we don’t want anymore. So, we sent out an application to become a customer of one today.

I have also signed up for Google Adsense on this blog. The great thing about that program is that once you get approved, you can use it on any other site you create. Now I just need to drum up traffic…

The progress is slow, but at least there is some. It is very hard taking care of a toddler wannabe while trying to at least get some housecleaning done and make money at home. I have so much more respect for mothers in general, particularly ones who stay at home and keep a clean house as well as ones who go back to work while still breastfeeding. Wow.

 

Well, it seems that if you lose your job because the length of a disability exhausts all leave, you are not eligible for unemployment – at least in the state of California. So I now need to come up with enough income to stay home and take care of my daughter or go back to work and put her in daycare. She is 9 months old and just entered her separation anxiety phase – perfect timing.

Background: I separated my pelvis giving birth to her. It still hasn’t completely healed, but after several months and some physical therapy, I can finally sleep in bed and sit in a chair without pain.

Of course, this can be a good thing. It will motivate me to find multiple sources of income to keep me at home. But trying to find work at home opportunities is like dancing in a minefield. It is amazing how many mlm schemes and outright scams there are out there. Even the semi-legitimate “programs” seem to just offer advice as to how to earn money on the internet. How depressing. Well, I’ll figure something out and log my progress here.

Sleep Deprivation

My musings for a while will be a bit bizarre due to massive sleep deprivation. One of the many costs of being a mother, I suppose. But a separated pelvis doesn’t exactly help.
