But with God ALL things are Possible. . .

Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God ALL things are possible." Matthew 19:26


I have reached a time in my life once again that need to put all of my trust in God that he will work another miracle in our lives. My daughter is now in 8th grade and wants desperately to attend a Catholic High School. She has gone to Catholic Grade School all her life. Public School is so bad where we live at moment, High School students get out at 11 O'clock in the morning. The problem is, Catholic High School is currently costing about $9,000 a year, and I have three children. Yikes.

I know that if I place my trust in our Lord, HE can make ALL things happen. Sometimes we may wonder how in the world we are going to get that camel through the eye of a needle or make that mountain move. But I know that it is not by my might that makes things happen, it is by my faith in God, He is the one that I will rely on during this time.

I am doing what I can, my website, The Custom Quill, is up and running, I am hoping that by some miracle people will find me on the web while doing their Christmas shopping for their childrens grandparents, aunt's, godparents, coach's, etc. But when all is said and done, I am leaving it up to my heavenly Father, I am putting it all in his loving hands.

Is Working-At-Home a Legit Idea?

Wouldn't it be wonderful to create a business from your garage and have the success of Bill Gates? Success of that portion really sounds absurd when you are juggling diapers, after school activities, and cooking meals. Can it really be done?


Working from home is does sound like such a fantastic castle in the air type dream for a mom is trying to make ends meet for her family. It is not impossible, but the trick, I think, is trying to find something that will pay a nice paycheck on a regular basis.

Liz Pulliam Weston says that if we have discipline and realistic expectations, working at home may be a realistic goal that can be achieved. In a article on MSN, Working from Home, she said those she interviewed who made decent money at home also made decent money in the regular work-world. . Most were educated, had strong business skills and a had previous success in the workplace.


Self-discipline is a virtue that is a must if you want to work from home. You need to be able to motivate yourself to ensure that office work is completed in a timely manner and not put off so that you can wander onto other household tasks.

Weston also makes it clear that working from home may not necessarily lead to big money. She concurs with what WAHM is constantly warning readers–be on the lookout for scams. If a job ensures fantastic financial rewards, it’s probably too good to be true. Also, legit home-working opportunities will not ask you for big financial investment up-front. Do your research, and follow your gut-feelings.

It is good to know that working from home may not make you rich, but with persistence and diligence you can make a large contribution to your family’s financial bottom-line, which I think we would all be happy with!
