Hello everyone, my friend Aesop, kindly introduced to MSE. I'm a mum at home with 2 kids. Was due back to work after my 2nd child baby but was made redundant. I would just love to work from home as I can spend lots of time with my kids. I am very creative and am always making and decorating my house with my daughter. Whilst at home organised a charity event to help raise money for breast cancer. It's just to find that niche in the childrens market!!! Love anyone's advice. Thank you in advance.

*Waves* Hello sweetcornlolly, and welcome! Best of luck with sorting out your work-from-home business. (And good name...what does a sweetcorn lolly look like?!)

Hello All, I'm back after being MIA for a few months.

I'm currently filled with scary but exciting plans for cutting down to two days a week at work. This is a serious cut in income but I want to make up the difference by starting my own business (possibly two but neither will pay much). Now what I'd like someone to tell me is what the attitude of the working tax credit people will be to this. The paid job will be for 14 hours a week and I estimate that the new business will be about 10 (probably more but I can justify 10), what will the social security people expect me to do to prove I am working 10 hours a week ? They need to be over 16 hours to maximise the benefits. I anticipate though that there won't be much income for the first few months.

Welcome to Sweetcornlolly (luv the name :T)

This thread has loads of craft ideas, may help with inspiration and ideas in the first instance. Glad to see you aboard and keep posting.

Well people I'm proper poorly - hot & cold, painful joints, sore head. Have slept all morning with horrible wierd dreams. Going to take some ibuprofen and try to get dressed. Can't really complain as this is the first bug I've caught this year but am going to content myself with a whinge as I had lots of plans for today.

Take care all, Thriftyxxx

Ewwwww Parma violets hideous sweets.

TMIF well done on your sock

Sweetcornlolly welcome to the thread

House has been decorated with carved pumpkins, glow in the dark skeletons, bats covered in glitter that the kids made and my Happy Halloween banner. All I need now is for it to go dark :rotfl:

Assortment of halloween themed chocs for the kids and any trick or treaters, cooking HM pizza and wedges for tea with nice Halloween themed paper plates (thank you Aldi for not blowing the budget). Have invited my mum and dad round since I had to cancel mindees due to DD being poorly. We are planning on playing dress the mummy involving a willing volunteer and toilet roll :rotfl:

Have a good day all, besides Halloween activities with the kids I am not doing a fat lot as I feel exhausted.

Don't they have rules at the university where you are? Knowing them I am very surprised! For my place I instituted a rule where nobody can get a PhD without knowing about both qualitative and quantitative methods; which means rudimentary statistics as well.

Keep going: statistics is fun once you loose your fear and learn the basics.

Hi Helen

To get working tax credits you will need to be working 30+ hours a week especially if you are self employed, if you plan to work less than that then the suggestion that they made to me was to apply for JSA. Not wanting to be negative but realistically it is unlikely that you would earn much if anything for at least the first 12 months of self employment at least not enough to give you an income that you can live on. I have had to put my self employment on the back burner whilst I try and get dole money plus a full time job because I need to rebuild my savings and pay debts.
