My Etsy Business

I have been working on etsy since last December I think, but it took me a while to make my first sale. I have made 701.46 so far this year. Which really isn't a lot of money, but it is decent money for only having iPhone 5 cases in my store. Next year I plan on expanding. I have started to make vases, and trays for the home.

I hope that it will turn into a actual full time income, but I know I am going to complain to my boyfriend about how busy I am because I already do when I have six cases to make at one time. When we finally move I want to have my own craft space so I have a nice place to work when I get busy, but it's going to take a while for that to happen. Right now we stay in a hotel room and I have a bucket that holds all of my supplies for making cases. I love making money online. It really doesn't even feel like work to me which makes it that much more enjoyable, but if you think making money online is easy you have another thing coming.

I have wanted to make money online since I was 17 and i am now 24 and have yet to make a full time income online. Now with that said I haven't given it a real try as in putting the hard work in. This year I have done a lot better though. I actually made a site that is making some money from adsense, and I plan on making more. I started writing and that has really supplemented my income when I wasnt making any sales from my cases but I stopped that last month after bubblews.com changed how they pay.

I can not wait a month for fifty dollars. I also sold a few websites this year on flippa.com. I have gotten my toes wet in a couple of things this year which makes me proud of myself. You can visit my etsy shop by clicking here.

My Much Older Boyfriend

My boyfriends name is Donnell Morman. I met him when I was working at my job. He would drive past my job and see me working, and one day he just happened to come in to do his laundry. I really don't even know the first time he saw me face to face because it took me a while to notice him.

He actually came in to the laundromat where I worked for a whole year before I agreed to go out on a date with him. One of the conditions that I had before I agreed to go out on a date with him was that he tell me how old he was. He had his birthday the day before I saw him, and I asked him how old did he turn he told me that he had just turned 48. Now me being all of 24 I was a little shocked and disappointed because I really liked him.

Everyone gave me a hard time about it right up until our date that weekend, but luckly after that first date everybody just seemed to shut-up and let things progress. We have had a good time together, but we have our little arguments like any other couple. We plan on getting our own place together soon, getting married and even having kids. His family likes me and my family likes him. I think we are pretty lucky to have things this easy dispite our 23 year age gap.

My Life As I Know It

Well the last three years for me have been strange to say the least. Now I don't want to say horrible because I really don't feel that way about the situation that I am in. I have been homeless for three years coming up in January. My cousin died the same month that I lost my house.

When I left my home I wasn't able to get all of my belongings I was reduced down to a storage locker that after about a year I could no longer afford and I ended up losing it. The business that I worked for was bought and sold and I quit ten months after the new owners took over. I can not stand people that do not appreciate my hard work. I started my own little business making cell phone cases from my hotel room.

Right before I quit my job though I met an amazing older man that I started dating. You can read more about him here. Him and I have been together a year now. At the moment I am planning on expanding my little business into something bigger, and I hope that it works because I do not want to be working for anyone else ever again. I would also like to move. At the end of every year for the last three years my goal has been to move, and I haven't made it yet.
