Hi, I’m Beth Branch.  My husband Billy is an accountant, and is the breadwinner in the family.  We have been married for 12 years and have two wonderful children - Jake is 10 and Molly is 8.   I have been working part time in a jewelry store to add a little extra cash in to the family coffers.  It’s not much lol, but we we’re hoping it would be enough to help us afford that family trip to Disney we have been wanting.

I received some bad news on Monday…

What am I going to do now?  I don’t want to look for another part time job where I am simply a number in someone’s budget.  I want to control my own destiny.  But where can I find another job which puts me in control and is flexible enough to work around the kids’ school and sports schedules?

Does anyone have any suggestions?
