Help - Change of career

Hi
Hopefully someone can offer me some advice on what to do. I am currently in full time employment but am not enjoying it and I now don't want to go in most days. I need a change of career but not sure how to go about it.
I am married and have a house so can't afford to give up my job and I wouldn't do that anyway. We have all of the monthly commitments which we are slowly lowering. My husband can't support me as he is self employed so his earnings can be up and down.
I need to do something different which will give me some freedom to do the stuff I love doing like creative and crafty stuff.
I can't do a college course as I work shifts so wouldn't be able to attend very week. I am really at a loss as to what to do but am determined that 2014 will be the year that everything changes.
Can anyone offer any advice?????

do you have an idea of what type of career you actually want to do ?
and d ors it need a college course, or are there other ways you might be able to get into it ?
One thing you could try, would be to look for another job that will give you enough money for your bills, but with better hours, allowing you time for a collage course, doesn't have to be something you enjoy, just use it as a stepping stone to eventually get what you want.
As you can't simply leave your current job, it does make things abit more difficult, so you might have to slowly work towards your goals instead0 -
Can you share some insight into what it is you currently do and what it is you would like to move to?
This way someone here has a idea on transferrable skills you might have.
Generally speaking you should be investing at least an hour a week towards what you want to do.0
