I'm a mom who works from home!

What has worked best for me over the years has been an eclectic mix of income. I've worked full time and part time outside the home at times, and other times have exclusively worked from home.

I've held various telecommuting positions doing sales, marketing, virtual assistance, lead generation and customer service. Some have been direct employment while others have been as an independent contractor. All have given me the freedom to schedule my work time to fit my life.

When I'm not spending time with my family, I enjoy reading, performing in local community and professional theater, and taking pictures. I love saving money and finding interesting ways of making money. I clip coupons, do online surveys, shop the sales and always look for new ways to stretch that dollar.
