Owing to our new, reduced income lifestyle, everything from our home to the food on our table was affected. Panic was starting to set in as I wondered how on God's green Earth I would give my son a quality, home education without my previous budget and resources.
Shelling out a few thousand dollars on curriculum alone wasn't a problem before. In fact, I was proud of my ability to do so. This didn't even begin to include the museum memberships, field trips, "extra" activities, et al.
One night, after CJ went to bed, I was up worrying and berating myself. What kind of mother was I if I couldn't provide for my little family?
That was my low point.
Round and round my thoughts went. What a terrible mother I am because I don't know what to do and don't know how I'll do it. Here I am, with all this business experience and I can't do a thing for my son! I could manage an online campus, translate documents and meetings, train others and provide instant data for ... wait!
It took me remembering me - who I am, what I have done, what I can do - to snap me out of my funk.
Why not use some of my corporate skills to find a solution to our financial dilemma? A quick search for "make money online" and every variation thereof ensued. The results were truly startling. There are so many results but not enough real ones out there!
In the coming days, I will be posting the resources I found, use and personally recommend. You'll find them filed under Penny's Money Challenge.
Wishing you much peace, happiness and success,
