Working from home?

Hi, I'm fairly new here, so please be gentle with me! 
For the last year I've been off work with swine flu and subsequent post viral fatigue syndrome. I am not well enough to return to my old job (teaching sen children) and have recently started working part time in a newsagents.
Its great to finally be well enough to do that, but I need to earn more money (my OH and I have a couple of loans that we took out before I was ill and we're struggling to keep up the repayments).
The difficulty is that if I do too much, I get ill again, so ideally I'm looking for things that I (and OH) can do from home, so that if I'm feeling rubbish I can still do them, but perhaps after I've been to bed for an hour.
I already do surveys for yougov, onepoll, valued opinions and justtheanswer.
If anyone has any ideas of things we could do, I'd be really grateful!

I would suggest you use your skills.
Do you feel able to tutor?
Do you feel able to mark examinations?
Do you feel able to invidulate at exams?
Do you feel able to be an online tutor for the OU?"A nation's greatness is measured by how it treats its weakest members." ~ Mahatma Gandhi
