aloha - what about if you try to sell Pampered Chef or tupperware or Avon or other products from home? There are lots of new alternatives like Southern Living and all that...you might try an eBay business from home or something - just a few suggestions

good luck - chin up - get motivated, success is the best revenge! go... gooooo... Gooooooooooooooooooooo!

Remember that the best way to combat stress is to take care of your body. Eating well, exercising, and getting enough rest really can have HUGE impact on your ability to cope with stress.

I do work from home--but in a sort of small niche (educational publishing). It's worked out really well for me. I wasn't always in this field--but parlayed my education and experience into a job that has allowed me to be at home with my kids. PM me if you want to talk about it--sometimes fresh eyes can help you think of things to do with your background that hadn't occurred to you.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
