Points to ponder...

[wishing, hoping]

Yes, I know, KML. I have been trying to achieve one, but things keep coming up. It doesn't help that I just got attacked by H for using our marital credit card to put down the deposit for S's party. I tried to explain that I had to pay rent, too, and that I didn't want to stretch myself too thin. I am sure he doesn't care. But dam it, I don't have any other credit cards. I have credit on Bill Me Later for purchases online, but I couldn't use that for S's party.

I was trying to keep a PMA because being upset doesn't help anything. But I am just beside myself. I am trying to think outside the box for extra cash. But I am starting to feel like a real failure.

I am on a shoestring budget now! I don't know where I could cut except for groceries. I have looked online for other money-making opportunities. The only thing I find is retail. Which won't help me, because then I have to claim the income and that will affect my support.

I thought about selling some jewelry to pay off some bills. I could go through some stuff and see what I could sell. I guess any little bit helps. I have started making a small pile of things. D has a pair of boots and some dress shoes that don't fit her. She might have a dress or two as well. But that's not much money. I can clean out my closet and find some things to sell. Can you sell clothes on Craigslist? I don't trust consignment shops at all and I don't like eBay - doesn't eBay take a portion of what you sell?

I am such a newb.
