Any ideas?

I'm trying. Really I am. Trying to get our financial house in order. But then things happen. Flooded basement. Braces for 2/3 of my offspring. Hours cut at work.

It's hard to get ahead when just making it under normal circumstances is the norm. Throw a curve ball at us and I don't know how long we can keep our heads above water.

I have a full time job. And I have a part time job. I work every other weekend. That little bit only gets me about $80 per weekend, not counting tips. Hardly seems worth it. I considered asking for more hours with the part time job, but the other people who work don't really want to give up their hours either. All the slots are full...

JP has a full time job. And he has a part time job. One weekend a month (my ass) and 2 weeks in the summer. His weekends pay much better than mine. Well, his full time job pays about 3 times as much as my full time job, too, so that seems reasonable.

I just want to do more. But I don't know what else I can do. I need something that pays me but doesn't take me away from home any more than I already am. I need something that pays me but doesn't take up too much time, since I don't have a ton of free time to spare.

That kind of job doesn't exist, does it? Oh, and I should say that I'd prefer a job that's LEGAL... that really narrows it down, huh? LOL

Man, this economy really blows.
*sigh*
