We are great for venting and support here, but to be honest I see and underlying issue that you need help with. Control issues don't go away, they get worse, trust me I've got the t-shirt.

The only way I help with finance is by child support from grandkids. I have no other income. DH doesn't want an yone coming into the house to do checks, or anything. so any kind of legit type businesses out of the house are out. About the only thing I am able to ddo is focused around cooking and I don't driive(I am learning).

Everytime I come up with an idea to earn money, DH nixes it for one reason or another. I think he just wants me to be out of the house, and that is his only criteria. I don't do well with other people.

I just wissh that I could come up with a money making thing that I could do without investing money(which I don't have), and without health inspections, and intrusions to your life.

Gotta go to bed now. It's late for me.
Thanks to all of you that are willing to listen.

If you want to write and make money, this is a great start (if you don't mind non-fiction) http://www.helium.com/. You write an article and the more you are read, the higher your rank. The higher your rank, the more you're paid. Now you are paid pennies, so you have to keep writing, but I know of folks making hundreds of dollars. If nothing else, it gives you a place to get feedback and advise; very helpful.

Also, garage sale buying and turning that into ebay selling is a great home job.

Well, he just paid an outragious(it's late, I aan't spell) amount of money for a Women's Defensive Handgun ourse. I just finished it Fri. I did great! I learned a lot. I feel much safer on our property then I did two months ago! I feel much more able to confront someone than before.

My Husband has helped me more then any other man to be my own woman and stand up for myself. He still needs to get over the ingrained stuff from his father, but he is pretty good about that.

He wants me to drive and be sociable. I don't fully understand that, as niether of us does well interacting wiith the public.

We are loners, and like to spend time with eachother and our SGD. I am not one to usually say anything about my private life, but sometiimes you need to vent. I thank you all for allowwing me this. Goodnight.

How do you feel about your daughter in Afghanistan? I have insight on that issue. If you need to talk about it, I have an ear and word or two if you need.

I believe you can find the support you need for anything you have going on here at BYC.

Glad you're here.

Vent away,

I think most people sometimes have issues in their lives and need to get it off their chest.

I am also trying to set up a home based business, fed up with a country where I am highly qualified but because of my age I am being knocked back constantly and don't have the money to invest.

I am also quite isolated, but then in some ways that is my choice too at the moment.

So feel free. At least this site will give you some humour and support, believe me. lol...

Who knows one day I hope we will all reach our goals.

Thinking of you.

Monica, we're here whenever you need to talk.

Vent, breathe, type... we're here, and we hear you! Sometimes being a "loner" is stifling, that's why there's other crazy ( I mean that in the most affectionate sense) people like us out here for you to commune with. Do you do any kind of craft work? There's all kinds of ways to do commerce over the internet and never have to leave the house except for the occasional foray for supplies and shipping materials. I love the writing suggestion. Could you do a correspondence course in medical transcription? I knew 2 stay-at-home moms who brought in $ doing that from home, never even met the docs she was working for, collected her money, no inspections. Just a question... have you always been a loner, or is that fairly recent? (something to think about..) I'm sending a cyber

since that's probably the safest; and good thoughts for your daughter's safe return. Hang in there, and keep on venting here, it's safe and we care.

Check out sites like www.lulu.com where you can publish your own works for free.... and for a small fee you can get an ISBN number that allows you to sell your book through Amazon etc.

Sometimes we all need to vent! I know sometimes I do too. Hang in there

Do you know any domestic trades like sewing or crafting of any kind?
We had really bad money issues when I was younger and my mom began doing seamstress work and cleaning neighbors houses she also made teddy bears out of old clothes from people that had passed on or baby blankets some kind of cloth that their family would want to hold on to and hug. She ended up making quite a bit of money doing that and it was all by word of mouth. Plus it was very rewarding for her and and helped her come out of her shell.


Also if you are crafty look into http://www.etsy.com/ I have a few friends that make money selling things they've made on there.

I think it's great that your husband is pushing you to be more independent. Just take baby steps and you'll be out there living life before you know it.

I hope your daughter returns home safely.
