The ramblings of a mom of three.


Where to go from here?

January4



I’m in a fundraising slump. I have a lot of offers from friends and acquaintances for more party-type things, which I totally appreciate, but I feel like I’ve run that idea’s course and people are tired of it. I can’t keep hitting people up to buy stuff, can I?

My husband keeps talking about donating plasma for a measely $200 a month or something, but I don’t know that he’s made an appointment yet.

I inquired about a clinical trial today for IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) but haven’t heard anything yet. I did some clinical trials in college and they paid, but usually just a small amount. Because I would have to drive over an hour to get there, it may not be worth it.

I have a desk to sell, but until my replacement desk arrives, I can’t sell the current, and I found out my replacement won’t arrive until mid-February. Ugh!

I’ve listed things on Craigslist but no luck. We do still have lots of CD for Sale and I was going to take them to a pawn shop, but I have to get the Husband to download his songs to iTunes before I can do that and like a man, he keeps “forgetting”. Grrrr.

We cleaned out the garage and I have a few more items to sell — nothing big ticket, but it’s still something. The problem is it’s only stuff I can really sell locally (I can’t possibly ship this 5 foot tall CD tower thing I have) and I’m not getting any local interest.

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Help me out of this slump and getting some good ideas!!! I am stuck. :(

    Is there any sort of part time work that you could get from home? (i’m sure you’ve already looked). Data entry? That sort of thing?
