Doll up the resume and don't let them know you've been out of work this long. I'm not encouraging you to lie or anything like that, but you were doing all kind of sub-contracting work while you were at home.
You wanna know what's funny? The last temp agency I tested with, I tested advanced in excel. She asked me how I knew excel so well with being out of the work force for so long. I said "I know... excel wasn't even around 13 years ago." We laughed!! I told her to write that in my file that I'm a quick learner and a self starter.
