Um, I think that i have demonstrated that I am everything but lazy. DH has now been taking small day laboring jobs. We have held 2 yard sales and I took the advice and picked up a pt job as well as my ft. You are a judgmental ass.  [/quote]

Just be careful.  If your husband is collecting unemployment, he is required to report any income that he makes for part-time or temp work including day labor.  They will recalculate how much unemployment he receives based on the part-time income that he is earning.

If you don't report it and you get audited or if he goes to one of the day-labor shop fronts, they often have to report who is hired and you both could have to pay a penalty for taking in unreported income while collecting unemployment.  He really should be reporting it.

Have you tried selling items on ebay?  I know several people who go on Saturdays and hit up yard sales in more affluent neighborhoods and buy a bunch of things are low prices and then resell on ebay.  One makes a few hundred dollars a week doing this, he specializes in books and he often picks up a case or two of books for steals (like a case for $5-10) and then resells the books for like $2-3 apiece.  I've also heard of someone (a friend of a friend) who does this with gently used clothing, but she has a good eye for what's a good bargain and what will resell easily and for a decent price.[/quote]
