I am trying desperately to keep our heads above water however the necessary outgoings (I have already cancelled Sky etc) are coming to more than what we are bringing in.
I work part time and due to the cost of childcare I cant increase my hours. I also cant work out of the home on an evening as my DH has a job with very unreliable finish times so I cant guarantee he will be back from work to look after the children.
I've always thought when you look on sites like 'Not on the High Street' etc that some of the things look like you could make them at home however when I have actually looked at it in more details I don't think it would work. Cost of materials etc and also I have to admit I'm not that skilled in the artistic department.
I have tried time and time again to get work from home data entry type roles and I either don't get accepted or I do then no work ever comes out of it.
I looked at dog walking/sitting but the market around here is saturated with people doing this plus I work so cant actually walk the dogs in the middle of the day (when post people want them walking) and I couldn't leave a dog I was dog sitting whilst I went to work.
What else can I do? I thought of getting a glass collecting job (which is what I did at Uni) but no one is advertising for these and the clubs I have emailed say they don't have glass collectors just bar staff and would want me to start early evening which I can't.
