Being a Housewife, raising children, cooking and sewing I think would be a wonderful thing to do. The only problem with it is you don't get paid. Yes, you can double coupon but I don't think that would quite work out to enough. Also you can sew your own clothes which I think used to be a lot more helpful in my Mom's day. Now you can buys clothes for so cheap and your certainly wouldn't want to wear anything I made. A nice thought though.
SJ, have you tried selling stuff on EBay? That isn't a full time gig but it might pay a few bills here and there in the meantime. If you have a hobby making anything someone out there would buy it. You can sell rocks I bet. Just an idea.
How about making that husband of yours (who never takes out the trash ) make a bunch of really cool bird houses, and you run a little 'family' ebay selling company of the products?

I think that Sandy should become a professional garbage man. Except she would be a garbage woman.
I would say let her drive the garbage truck, but I don't think that women are that good at driving, so she should hang off the back of the truck, and load garbage cans into the back.

That's an excellent idea, Lawless.
What ever happened to a man providing for his home and letting the wife spend all the money?
Look, Whidden, I would be your first customer. Yeah, I want a 10 foot tall birdhouse and I will pay up the yin/yang for it. Frick the HOA, I pay $167/month for water and trash disposal, I deserve to have my own dang 10 foot bird house on the lawn.

Sorry to hear about your job. Damn the man.
-HECK!
HECK! why didn't I think of that. I don't make anything but my Mom makes lots of stuff.
I put in a lot of apps today. I need to fill out four tonight on line.
I had a really good interview Friday morning with a credit union. They said it will be about a week before they let me know anything. I am glad because I put in several more applications. I will be suprised if I don't get more calls for interviews next week.
Guess what? Sandy June is no longer unemployed!!!
I think I applied at three fourths of the banks in Tulsa. I started working at Triad Bank last Wednesday. I am doing pretty well there so far. I am doing wire transfers at the moment. All the people there seem really nice. It is beautiful in the lobby. They have a fire place, leather furniture. In the back office they have old desks and old computers. I am not complaining though. I just hope they stay in business. One of the ladies there has a dog a yorkie poo named Remington (Remi). They let him run around the bank before it opens and after it closes. Can you believe that?
Thank you all for your support and advice.
