My name is probably on more junk than I like to admit.

Being single and taking care of oneself is no easy task. I'm not single now, but I know starvation, literally.

This is job that can be done at home, her name is not jeopardized in any way. I think she should go for it! I used to pick up my garments in a plastic garbage bag every week from the discount store. Everyone asked me why I would stoop so low. I made about $45,000 per annum for only 26 weeks out of the year. It ended about 10 years ago. I wept. It enabled me to learn how to paint, the way I wanted to paint and hire models. I thought it was a terrific deal, I still do.

However, when it comes to my personal work, I try to be as firm and uncompromising as possible. If this kind of work gives you time money and peace of mind, why not. Believe you me everything I have done or anyone else has ever done is a masterpiece.
