Good Afternoon All,
I was just wondering if anybody nows of "Good Stay At Home Jobs" to make extra income (for my meds). I need to start doing something. But unless you talk with people you don't know how many jobs are trustworthy or how many are SCAMS. Love Being on the Computer, But I need to get paid while I'm on the computer. Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated. My medicine is costing way to much and my boyfriend is STRESSIN :hmm: . Any Help would be nice. :help:

I house/pet sit for a lot of people in my area now that I am not working due to my IC. I make ok money doing it. Like I usually house/pet sit for one of my old high school teachers who lives like 10 miles away (believe me, I know how hard it is to travel when IC is bad. I can only last 5 minutes in a car on my good days). The guy has two birds, two cats and two dogs. I make like $100 a week for staying there. The only thing is that I have to bring my own food of course. But this guy usually goes away for schooling every other month for like 2 weeks at a time. That's how I make extra money to pay for my meds!
