I'm starting nursing school (yay) next month.  However, this means I'm not going to be able to work as many hours as I have been working.  I've been working 52-60 hours per week.  40 at one job and then the extras at another.  I need ways to suppliment my income (df doesn't make much) while I'm in school.  What do you ladies do for extra income?

I started selling some stuff on ebay to make a little extra lately.

He's in school too.  He averages $16 an hour 32 hours a week (2 12 hour shifts and 1 8 hour shift) He brings home 400.  I work 36-40 hours at my regular job and bring home 1000 to 1400 every 2 weeks depending on my mileage.  I guess I really don't need to do any extra work, but the thought of not working the extra 12-18 hours makes me nervous.

Oh, I'm not sorry that I have to work.  I LIKE working.  I'm just nervous about not working as many hours since I'll be in school (again).

I've been searching the house for some bigger ticket items (we don't have much either).  We had a Faberge ice bucket that we got for our wedding from my cousins (they're super rich & it was a great present, but hasn't gotten used in over 7 years).  So, I sold that.....and I sold a Waterford crystal picture frame we got from our wedding too.  We have some silverware up right now that I hope will sell.  After that, I'll likely be turning to some lower priced stuff.  I have some toys of DS's that I know DD won't be into that I can put on there (that likely won't get much, but every little bit helps) and some baby items as she outgrows them.  I don't know what kind of luck I'll have with that stuff.  I'm was an ebay virgin until about a month ago.  Selling 2 out of 3 things isn't bad so far :)  

We also have a children's consignment store here in town, so I've been consigning all kinds of baby stuff there....and maternity clothes.
