A Beginning.

So, it seems that I have found myself at 29 years of age, with barely any money or aspirations, thankful for a (frankly, rather meagre) monthly disability payment and thinking that my lot in life is precicely this; settling for being skint and housebound with my illness and no hope. Forever more.

I do not like this conclusion.

So, I said to myself, what can I do about it? Realistically?
Take endless online surveys for money? Sign up for every competition that I can find and hope that my efforts are rewarded at some point? Create some sort of online business that I can run from home? Something else that my brain hasn't got to yet?

For a start, I shall be giving a shot to the three above ideas. I spent a fair chunk of yesterday filling in forms for competitions and pennies, although that option is largely a waiting game that it'll take a while to see any success in.
I've made jewellery out of bits and bobs I've found online for gifts and such before, perhaps I can make something that people will actually want to purchase? I guess it's worth a try. I might dig through my stuff tomorrow and see what I have to offer on that front.

If anyone has any other ideas, do feel free to chip in! I would love to be a bit more self sufficient before 30, so any advice is good advice! In the mean time, I shall be working my fingers to the bone, tapping out endless details for pennies at a time. Wish me luck!
