starting to feel the crunch here. Need insurance. Actually looking at jobs. No motivation to get my self-employment thing going. Would it really fly? Just feeling nervous, tense. I want someone to hold my hand and walk me through the process and get me started at self employment.

 WW, you might want to read up on what it takes to start a business of your own and talk to people who have their own business. It's really a tough row to hoe!! First of all, you have to have working capitol, even if it's only a craft business.What kind of business are thinking about?

I was wondering the same as September. I may be able to help you if I knew what type of business you were looking to get into.

The long and short is teaching fiber art to kids and in museums. Natural fibers, weaving, felting, braiding etc. I know from experience I will make no money selling my creations because of the man hour thing. This could touch on history, art, and agriculture. I work mostly with wool, mohair, angora, alpacca and Llama. I do not have a studio space that could be convenvient. I would like to go to schools clubs and museums. That's the gist. I have a lot of stuff and while the class a few weeks ago wiped out a bunch of supplies, I could teach at a moment's notice. Thanks

WW, I'm sure I've asked you this before, but can you get help from vocational rehabilitation? They helped me start up a fiber business (which I didn't keep up, so I'm not a good one to advise you - my idea was to do processing). Also, see if your extension office has a class about starting your own business. I took a class like that, and it was essentially free (they refunded the enrollment fee upon completion), and it was helpful too. You might also check with crafts stores and see if they are hiring teachers.
Keep me updated! Rap
