Paula, I see your message here about starting a home business. I am
thinking of doing exactly that myself, because I'm in the same boat you
are! Only difference is, I'm a single mom.
Have you read a book called "Women and Home Based Business"? Its
available from the Talking Book Library. Its a good book, because, the
author takes a hard, realistic look at women and home based business.
While she promotes it, and feels that in many circumstances its the
Only way to go, she says in the book that women's magazines have given
women a totally false idea of what they're in fore.
She states that it is a "cruell myth" that often is presented to women
considering going into a home based business. Never the less, I feel
myself, that in our circumstances as blind women, still constantly
facing discrimination on all sides that home business is the way to go!
Read the book though if you get the chance. I felt it was good, and
Very realistic.
